Try Settings, Storage, Cached Data, and clear the cache.

Re: low storage memory

You are out of space to install apps on your device.

Install this simple little app. It's very small and will install in very limited space. It will tell you how much space you actually have left for installing apps:

To make space you can:
Delete some texts or emails. If you really have lots, this can help.
Uninstall app updates.
Uninstall apps.
Clear caches, but it will only make space temporarily.

Re: low storage memory

I just learned about this today on this forum.
Dial *#9900#
Click Delete dumpstate/logcat

I picked up a TON of space!
Hope this helps.

I tried dialing #9900# and it told me I didn't have a connection or invalid MMI code.
