Phone storage low indication

[twoowheeler]

Having same issues with mine. out of curiousity how much memory is your HTC mail taking? Go to Settings>Applications>Manage applications> (give it a few seconds to compute sizes) click on Menu and Sort by size. What's on top? My biggest app is HTC Mail. Previously the "Low on space" notification came on at around 116Mb and "phone memory full" came on around 125 Mb at which time it was useless. Did hard reset and first notification came on after one day, currently reading 119Mb and climbing. 4 email accounts, 3 imap and one gmail. imap set for last 14 days of mail. maybe 50 texts messages, no task killers or apps downloaded. 8 gig sd card, formatted. Deleting attachments seem to help keep it from going up but i've only downloaded 39 Mb worth of attachments. there is no way all the emails add up to 119Mb. Right now i can use the phone for calls and browsing but cannot compose emails or texts, it fc the app and senseui, reboots, freezes, etc. only way to fix is battery pull which sucks cause i came from the Storm...must be a curse? anyways, verizon is sending me a new one tomorrow, I think we all just got lemons. i'll let you know how the new one goes...

wow, how did you get the phone memory so low?

as for your attachments, there should be a setting (i can't remember where, but most likely in the mail app) to have attachments save to the sd card or the larger memory partition.

also, if you go to settings, applications, manage and click on mail, you can see how big the cache and data sections are, and if they seem too large, you can clear them from there.

clearing data might mean you have to re sign in to mail and resync it though.

Phone memory low, memory getting low.

I got the same exact problem. Im getting a error message showing "phone memory low" and cant get it to go away unless you wipe the phone. Tech support has already had me wipe the phone twice which deletes everything on the phone. Im not sure if I got a lemon or what. I talked to Verizon tech support and conferenced in a tech from HTC and they act like they have never heard of it. I was wondering if there is a fix for this or should i send the phone back and order another one? Someone has to know how to correct this issue. I only had eight applications downloaded to the phone the second time I had to restore to factory setting which wiped the phone again. Can anyone help with this????
