Full phone memory message N97

Hi, I'm receiving alert to delate or move files from the phone memory. Looks as I did what I could, but still not enough. I keep my sms and emails and pics, videos and all other staff in the mass memory, but now I cant even receive messages!!! (this same alert - 'phone memory full') I've checked the phone browser - cant see any files which could possibly fill up the phone memory. How to proceed. Quite desperate whitout my txts/emails inbox. Regards.

Hi All,
I have manage to increase the phone-memory by deleting the internetbrowser cache. (from 186Kb to 8,2Mb free Mem)
But to delete installed applications (from phone memory - Not Installed in Massmemory ) doesn't take much afford.
All my messages, e-mails, applications etc are stored in the Massmemory, but stil 8,2Mb (internal phonememory) isn't much?
Please Nokia, Create a application/update to clean/delete your internal Memory files!
Or create a link in the (error)notice in your phone where to find to problem of the full memory to erase some files!

  • 5230-Phone memory vs Memory card memory

    How to move messages from phone memory to memory card?
    Because, in messaging - options- settings-other-memory in use- if i set it to memory cars, phone memory messages are hidden....so how to transfer them to memory card...
    Pl help

    1: If you have Opera Mobile installed, Clear cache.
    2. If you have too many "Saved pages" in Opera Mobile, delete those.
    3. If you are using Opera Mini, change its "Saved Pages Location" to somewhere on memory card.
    4. If using Ovi Music, Clear cache.
    If you have installed any other application which uses phone memory to store Temporary files change its location to memory card, if it allows you...
    Also Go to Settings>application manager>installed apps>do you see a mini memory card icon on the right side of each application you installed?
    If you don't see that icon that means they are installed on phone memory, uninstall them and reinstall on memory card. (please don't mind if you already know these thing, i am just trying to explain to make it clear if you don't know).
    And the ultimate way to free up Maximum phone memory is to do a reset, which i'd recommend to do ONLY IF YOU WANT THE PHONE MEMORY BACK ON EVERY COST. Just ask if you don't know how to do that.
    Good Luck,

  • N97 Phone Memory full?

    I have had my phone since Saturday, so not long at all, and already Im getting constant errors to say the phone memory is full.  I have about 400k free.
    I have now changed my msg location to save to the Mass storage and deleted all previous messages from phone memory, and cleared the web cache.  I have installed around 5 apps i think, like a game, the photo browser updated ovi maps and a twitter app.  
    If you go into the File manager on the phone and goto Options--->Details---Memory while viewing the phone memory i get this break down:
    73MB Memory in use
    456kb Free Memory
    411B Calendar
    23KB Contacts
    10KB Message
    0B Images
    0B Sound Files
    1840KB Video Clips
    31KB Documents
    6650KB MIDP apps
    8923KB SIS applications
    56MB Other Files
    Can anyone explain what could be using all this extra memory and how to resolve this??
    Cheers

    no secrets i just try to avoid junk on my phone and all junk that i need i store on e memory unless i have no choice as in boingo, jaiku and qip apps that unfortunately came with this bloody phone. just like i am religious about rebooting my phone at least weekly, but with n97 is more like daily. i am religious with ram management and disable everything i don't need. 
     There are some things you can do to manage the C memory better/phone memory.
    1. Clear your browser cache often
    2. set different message allocation ( if you have not done so already)
    messaging- options- settings- other ( set it to 999, and e memory)
    3. Go to OVI store (app on your phone) and change that memory allocation for most apps.
    opitons- account- settings- installation preferences
    4. Remove Facebook, Accu Weather, Bloomberg, apps from the C drivve and reinstall them via OVI store and place them in the E memory/mass memory
    NOTE: If you are using Nokia Messaging application, it can only store data on the C drive so keep that in mind
    NOTE: RAM is another issue with N97. Don't keep too many apps running at the same time as it will run out of RAM and either close all applications on the spot or crash the phone and result in restart.
    BETTER RAM management : Here are some things to consider
    also consider investing in the best taskman 1.99$ in the ovi store or y browser (free) to manage your ram and all the apps that are runnig on the phone that you might want to close if you are not using them.
    http://www.drjukka.com/YBrowser.html
    now y browser is free, it has a great amount of stuff you can do with it, but it is not as easy to use as best taskman and it does not look so pretty- that is if you care about looks over function.
    i practice what i preach and manage to have my phone up and running rather well. i have no major issues and on v12 it is actually a fairly stable phone that is until you install some apps that make your phone go bunkers once again.

  • N97 Phone Memory getting full

    Hi there,
    My Phone Memory is getting less and less everyday, and I don't know why! I have my messages being saved to my Mass Memory, all images, photos, videos, applications, and so on are also being saved there!
    I tried the file manager on the cellphone, to look at every single folder to see if there is anything to delete, but everything is empty!
    Where is the memory going to?!
    Thnks!

    He is talking about the 73MB Phone Memory(C not the 32GB (29.8GB actually) Mass Memory (E. More free space on C: means snappier performance on the phone !
    I now have about 50.9MB free and an excellent response from my device in photo views, music library etc. v12 really spiced it up !

  • N97: Transfer Messages Between Phone Memory and Ma...

    Is there any way to do this? Whenever I have my phone connected to the PC, and a message comes in, they are stored in my phone memory. I want to transfer all my messages into the same location.
    can't wait for n97 successor

    found a solution:
    This will easily move ALL messages from Phone Memory ( C: ) to Mass Memory ( E: ), the time it takes depends on the number of messages you are moving. Also keep in mind YOU SHOULD HAVE NO MESSAGES IN THE MASS MEMORY. OR DON'T WANT THE MESSAGES ON THE MASS MEMORY ANY MORE.
    Steps as follow:
    - Connect your N97 to your computer using USB cable on "Date Storage" Mode
    - Show the hidden and system files ( in Windows 7: Computer -> Organize -> Folder and Search options -> view -> SELECT Show hidden folders, files and drivers, AND unckeck "Hide protected system files (Recommended)"
    - Go to your mass memory on PC and navigate to "Private" folder (E:\Privarte)
    - You will see perhaps many folders with numbers and letters as names
    - Search for a folder called "Mail2" inside one of these folders ( I found it in a folder called "1000484b\Mail2")
    - Delete this folder (YOU ARE NOW REMOVING ALL MESSAGES ON MASS MEMORY, DON'T DO THIS IF YOU HAVE MESSAGES YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSE)
    - Disconnect your phone from USB and now go to messages -> Options -> Settings -> Other -> Memory in use -> choose Mass memory
    - It will surely give an option for copying your messages and keeping the original ones.
    Then you are done ! engoy your free momory.
    remember to selected "no" to keeping the originals, OR you could select and them delete them aftewards.

  • N97 - lacking phone memory

    As you know, the Nokia N97 has two memories: mass memory 32 GB, and phone memory (about 70 MB). My phone permanently lacks the latter one. Long time ago did I uninstall almost all the applications installed by default for an unknown reason in the small phone memory. I don't keep SMS's there. When I check the files manager, it says I have more than 60 MB of "other files". I can't localize them either using phone's files manager, or pluging the phone to my computer. What are those "other files" and how can I free my phone's memory?

    Have a look at the link below for suggestions on how you can free up some phone memory.

  • Phone memory full??

    i'm using n81 8gb.the prob is phone mem is owez full.i check in the file mnger but cant find the files that coz my memory full

    When you receive files(images, music) via bluetooth, they take up space in your phone memory unless you delete them from the inbox after saving them to your mass memory. Do a clean-up in your inbox ie., delete the files that you would have received via Bluetooth, from your inbox, and see if you can reclaim free space. Also, if you have music and images stored in your phone memory, move them to the mass memory.

  • Nokia 5800 - phone memory always full

    got my phone yesterday from prepay mania, i hav an 8gb memory card in it btw, whenever i go to the menu i get messages saying c: phone memory full, please delete some data. sometimes it doesnt let me access particular features such as "settings" and even returns me to my home screen
    my question was how do i move all my future downloads and all the stuff on my phone memory to my memory card, so i wont get these messages coming up all the time
    Message Edited by roshan93 on 08-Jul-2009 08:57 AM

    if you have installed applications, uninstall them and reinstall them but this time choose the memory card as your main destination (the application should ask where do you want to install it). Also, if you have configured an email account, make sure you choose the memory card to store your emails (go to the messaging/email application, select options - settings - other and where it says memory in use select E: Memory Card (instead of phone memory). Finally, if you have been using the Web application, go to options - clear privacy data (select cache and cookies).
    If none of these options solve your problem, then do a hard reset (after backing up the phone, of course)
    Hope it helps..

  • Nokia N73 Phone memory full.

    Hi,
    I am using the N73. When ever i receive message or try to save contacts it shows a message -"Memory Full please delete some data". I deleted all data from Memory card, but when i check Phone Memory it shows 44MB in use. How do i clean my Phone memory?
    Please help.

    memory maybe distributed between different categories that you may not of, not only user files. first of all check the memory distribution by checking the : menu > tools > memory manager > options > memory details.
    if you have alot of messages stored on the phone memory , try to delete some, especially the ones that have attachments or you have recieved through bluetooth.
    if you have applications or themes installed on the phone memory , remove these and reinstall on the memory card.
    Fear not those who argue but those who dodge

  • "Phone memory full" when running PC suite's SMS up...

    Windows XP SP2
    Nokia PC Suite 6.81.13.0
    Nokia 6230i connected to PC via Bluetooth
    When I click on the Nokia PC Suite's "Messages" icon, it correctly opens Nokia Phone Browser, and if I click to create a new SMS it launches the update of the messages between phone and PC. Soon I get "Error, phone memory full, try to free some space on the telephone and try again".
    Then the SMS editor opens and works, but the phone is anyway not synchronised with the PC (I erase some SMS on the phone and keep seeing them on the PC).
    Phone memory is almost 90% free.
    This has begun right after updating to this last PC Suite version.
    thanks!
    k

    So .. with other words .. you are telling me not only PC Suite is **bleep**py software but the phone is a piece of junk also and doesn't delete SMS messages properly ?
    Sorry, but this is NO solution for the cause of the problem and doesn't guarantee that it won't happen again. I need a fix so it never happens again. There's no time for "try and error", that's something Nokia should do in their labs instead to deliver low quality software and devices.
    Oh well, if there won't be a working solution fixing the cause for this issue soon, I'll decide for my company to give back all phones (50+) and switch the vendor for good. We're still under guarantee so it's easy to make Nokia liable for this failing device.

  • N97 mini phone memory

    Hello,
    I have a N97 mini which i like but it started coming up with memory error messages and saying i needed to close applications, also the max amount of text i could have on my phone was 85. i have unistalled most of the pre-installed Apps which has free'd up some memory space on my phone. the memory messages have stopped now but i was wondering if there are any other files i can delete to free up even more space on the phone.
    I currently have 223MB free on my phone. is this a good amount ? or can more be found ?
    thanks

    One problem that I had after phone crashes on the N97 mini was that some of my settings changed causing data to get stored on device memory instead of mass memory.  The two biggest culprits were messaging and podcasting. 
    Check your settings for both of these programs to make sure that they are not saving to device memory. 
    You can also go to settings/phone/application settings and check all of your applications to see what memory they are using. 
    If, like me, you are syncing with an exchange server and have hundreds of contacts, hundreds of calendar entries and thousands of e-mails, it won't take long for your device memory to get maxed out.  That will cause problems running basic tasks.

  • NO phone memory - N97 - Absolutely RIDICULOUS

    Right, my phone memory (C is now down to about 200kb. I've not really got anything installed on it other than email and maps, also I store my messages on my mass memory. Yet my C: drive just shrinks and shrinks. I'm now left with not even enough memory to send an email. It's an absolute joke. 
    Does anyone have any ideas what I can do with this phone, other than throw it in a river? I'm just disgusted with the piece of junk. Shame on you, Nokia. Shame on you. I will never buy another phone from you again. This is the last straw. 

    For messaging all your messages can be saved to E, assuming you are useing the standard email client and NOT Nokia Messaging, which both has to install on and save messages to C, which is why I don;t use it ! The rest of the advice is pretty straight forward, but there are 100's of threads on the forum regarding saving and optimising the C memory on the N97, do a couple of searches in the search function on the forum !

    How do I use my I cloud account to save all my data no my device? I purchase $ 100 dollars deal because my phone memory was almost full.

    If you're asking if there is a way to add memory to your device, there isn't.  iOS devices have a fixed capacity that can't be expanded by using expansion cards or other hardware solutions.
    If you're running out of capacity on your devices, the only solution is to store less on your phone.  You can import your photos and videos to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083, then delete it from your device.  If you still want some of the photos on your device, put them in a folder on your computer then select the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync your device.
    You can also sync only some of your music to your device rather than your entire library, or subscribe to iTunes Match and stream it from iCloud.  You can also not keep as many movies, tv shows and other media on your device.
