Low memory/update = warranty phone replacement

Has anyone gotten a phone replacemnt under warranty with all the low memory and upgrade problems?

Why is the vendor response always a non-effective quick fix ? I have had my DINC since April 2010, and with Android 2.1, NEVER had a low memory issue.When Verizon updated the DINC to 2.2, I STILL, NEVER had any low memory issues. All of a sudden when I installed the 2.3.4 Gingerbread OTA update, I, like many others have had nothing but problems with Low Memory. I have cleared Facebook Data, GMAIL Data, and the problem sometimes clears, and sometimes doesen't. Even when it does, within an hour or 2, the low memory again pops up on my notification bar. All my mail settings are set to download the least amount of data possible. I've even tried uninstalling GMAIL, FACEBOOK, etc., and again nothing.
As I understand, there are 3 memory areas on the phone, and more than likely this problem relatest o the "Phone Memory" area which I believe is similar to RAM on a PC.
I have the error right now, and here is my storage information:
SD Card - Total Space 29.81GB
SD Card - Available Space 28.52GB, or 95.67% Available Space
Internal (Phone) Storage - Total Space 6.60GB
Internal (Phone) Storage - Available Space 6.28GB, or 99.68 Available Space
Phone Memory (RAM?) - Total Space 748MB
Phone Memory (RAM?) - Available Space - 407MB, or 54.4% Available Space
Please, can Verizon really look into this and find a permanent solution ?

  • Opt-out low memory 512mb devices for from accessing a Universal app project app in the Store

    I would like to opt out low memory 512mb Windows Phone devices from finding and downloading our app. The suggested method to add the tag <m3:MinDeviceMemory>1GB</m3:MinDeviceMemory>
    into the appx manifest didn't help us to achieve our goal. Low memory devices still can find and install our app. The app is Universal app. The app id is 1f2239bf-87ce-428f-b91f-823aa7e1ae6a.
    Thanks.

    Hi Alex,
    I found such features, but it was for windows phone 8 and windows phone 8.1 silverlight only. You can see it in Memory-related manifest entries section in the following link.
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj681682(v=vs.105).aspx.
    In this case, I would recommend you check the device memory at runtime and disable some features when it is necessary. Use
    this one to check the memory in phone project in universal app.

  • I had my iPhone replaced in 2011 because of the camera shutter app defect, and the "genius" put in the wrong serial code and after update the phone will not work. What can I do?

    I took my iPhone to AT&T after I tried to update to iOS 6 and the phone said I needed to insert the original sim card which was what was in the device. AT&T said to take it to apple because it had to be a software issue.  I get to the apple store and they tell me because I replaced my phone because of the defective shutter malfunction the "genius" entered in the wrong serial number by one digit causing the phone to turn into a UK phone and they could not fix it unless I have some sort of reciept or email saying it came from Apple. Mind you this is a year later with a move from TX to HI as well! So what am I able to do?? be out of a phone because they messed up?? They told me I could outright buy a new phone which I am NOT going to do because this phone worked before.

    I cant find any reciept in my email or in my husbands email.  I am going to attempt to call and speak to someone who can help me because this was not my fault except trying to be normal and update my phone!

  • N97 Software Update C: Phone Memory

    I just happened to check my Sofware update from my phone and noticed a "N97 C: Phone Memory" update.
    Description
    This update reorganizes the C: Phone memory to optimize it for more user memory available for possible SW installations on this drive.
    Version 7.1(1)
    Is this new? And has anyone did it yet?  What exactly does it do?

    you are welcome and hopefully next firmware update is to follow really really soon. and that for us n97 users will be great news ! its supposed to address some really annoying things like bt connections for some and of course my infamous charging issue.

  • TS4036 My iPhone has just been replaced and I am trying to restore from iCloud but its saying no backups are compatible with the version of IOS 6.0.1. My back iOS are IOS 6.1. Can you update the phone first then restore?

    My iPhone has just been replaced and I am trying to restore from iCloud but its saying no backups are compatible with the version of IOS 6.0.1. My back iOS are IOS 6.1. Can you update the phone first then restore?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes, update first, Settings > General > Software Update.
    Then navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
    When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from.

  • Nokia N97 - C: Phone Memory Update 7.1

    Hi,
    Can anyone advise on the below?
    I installed the C: Phone Memory Update 7.1 which I downloaded using the phone's inbuilt Software Updater and now none of the widgets (Facebook, AccuWeather) on the homescreen work.  The boxes just show "Loading Content".
    I've tried the "Restore Factory Settings" feature and this hasn't helped.  I've also tried re-installing the applications in question, to no avail.
    Thanks

    ok go to teh app you want on the home screen, launch it and get position for accu or log into face book once that is done do not exit the app just let it run, go back to the main screen and see if there is any difference. that is what i have to do sometimes.

  • We updated our phones and now we are running out of memory.  Never happened before the update and we have not added anything new.  We have hardly anything on our phones.

    We updated our phones and now we are running out of memory.  Never happened before the update and we have not added anything new.  We have hardly anything on our phones.  Why am I having to remove stuff that has always been on my phone. 

    Thanks for the reply TJBUSMC1973. 
    I guess that means back to the shop.  Ridiculous to sell a phone that can't handle the new iOS more efficiently (or vice versa).  I can't imagine anyone going near a 5C now (I have a feeling mine had already been used and taken back once and sold as new at O2).

    It doesn't matter that the damage doesn't appear to be related to the problem you're having. Once the phone is damaged, the warranty is void.
    Forum etiquette note: you don't need to post the identical response three times.
    Best of luck.

  • I can't update icloud on replacement phone because ios is not correct version

    I can't update icloud on replacement phone because ios is not correct version. Do I activate the phone as NEW?

    Do you mean you can't restore your iCloud backup?  If so, then set the phone up as new. Update iOS, then erase it and restore from your iCloud backup.
    If that is not what you mean, then you need to explain further.

  • Updated my phone. Memory issues.

    i updated my phone, big mistake. now im getting storage almost full messages. I deleted almost everything from my phone. Earlier today I had 1.7gb available. I got the message that my storage was almost full again. whe. I checked it kept changing the amount available. it was different from the general page to the storage page. Every time I change screens the available amount changes. What's going on with my phone??

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    If this does not work, set it back to factory settings, without using a backup, explained here:

  • Powerbook Lower Memory Slot Issue, what are my options?

    Hi there,
    I have a Powerbook G4 1.5ghz that I purchased in October of 2004. I had no problems with it until after upgrading the RAM to 2 x 512mb chips and then installing Tiger which resulted in me later notcing the missing RAM and learning about the lower memory slot failure issue.
    I find that sometimes if I remove the RAM and try and power it up and then replace the RAM again that the lower slot ocassionaly does come back. Trouble is though that the machine will either crash or I loose the other RAM slot when I have to shut it down. It seems to be so intermittent this way and I'm tired of constantly removing the RAM to fiddle about with it.
    My serial number begins W8441, so it isn't covered by the returns programe. I would call Apple Support, but I am put off by a £35 charge just to have them discuss and diagnose the problem.
    I'm in the UK and as I don't have Applecare and I'm not elgiable for the returns programe can anyone tell me what they charge for a logic board replacment? Looking at what they charge in the US, it's not cheap.
    I use my Powebook for Final Cut Pro, DVD Studio Pro, After Effects mainly and I had been alright with 1gig when it was working.
    I'm really trying to decide what the best thing to do is....
    - Do I pay for the logic board replacement, which I'm not really sure I can afford right now, or to be without my machine... especially as I have read that it can just fail again.
    - Should I just buy a 1gig stick for the upper slot and try and sell my old RAM, as that would be cheaper than getting the logic board replaced?
    It's a real shame that Apple doesn't seem to want to ackowledge that this effects other users as I'd been so impressed with everything about Apple up until now.
    Thanks for any advice.

    (Browse down for findings and questions).
    The notorious lower-memory-slot-bug has hit my finally too... I never believed it until now (and I've immediately signed the petition).
    I am outside warranty and I never bought Applecare either.
    Also my powerbook, a very dear machine to me, is a less common type to have this problem: a 1 GHz G4 15" FireWire 800 OS 10.3.9 type. Funny enough my older powerbook ( a G3 Bronze) is still running strong with no problems whatsoever.
    My G4 15" also has the "white spots" problem and a dead superdrive... I cannot believe how many hardware problems I'm having with this machine in comparison to all my older macs - even my sluggish powerMac 7200/90 never gave me this many headaches...
    Alright, I'll stop complaining for now.
    I've been able to browse the internet on this and found the following statements:
    The lower memory slot gets "fried" because of a OS 10.3.9 upgrade,
    or possibly due to overheating when the powerbook is put on the users' lap,
    or possibly due to picking the powerbook up by the corners so the metal gets bent.
    + I have only seen one case where someone's UPPER memory slot was defective.
    The solution to this problem (replacing the logic board) didn't seem to be definate in many cases so I'm reluctant to try this myself (and I have very little money). The alternative (replacing the upper slot memory with a bigger type of RAM) seems a bit scary to me,
    because I wonder:
    -will the upper memory slot RAM get "fried" eventually as well after a while?
    -do you need to have something installed in the lower slot or is it possible to just install one RAM card only?
    -are there more people with a 1 GHz PB that have this problem? It seems it's mostly people with a 1,67 GHz that have been bitten by this bug and maybe that's why Apple decided to give the majority a free repair. I am not sure whether that is a common policy, I am part of the minority it seems.
    As a solutions someone posted on a board that we should all buy KTA-PBG4333/1G RAM, but here in Dutch stores it is said this memory is only compatible with 17" powerbooks....
    Does anyone know if it is suitable for 15" as well??

  • Low Memory.

    After setting for Mail for Exchange, my Nokia E7 phone shows low memory.
    I checked C Memory & there are only important files & that too of small sizes. All major Applications are installed in Mass Memory only.
    Is “Low Memory” issue due to Mail for Exchange? If so, is it possible to transfer / change the data of Mail Exchange to Mass Memory instead of Phone Memory? How?
    Appreciate all the help.

    I had this problem in my Nokia E72, hope its relevant.
    go to office>file manager>phone memory>logs>eng>ods
    are there multiple files. click on options select all and delete. if the no of files is quite large it will take a very long time to delete. or you can select 30-40 files and delete and then check the space. if the free space increases then you need to delete all.
    also try updating your firmware.

  • Low Memory in C: on a C-7

    Hi I have a Nokia C-7 and after a recent update keep getting the "Low Memory on C: delete files" message.
    I keep the e-mails and texts on my phone down to a 12 or so .
    using the details option over the C: drive I can see tha messaging has 170 MB, SIS Applications has 146 MB and Other has 150MB.
    Bearing in mind I delete most messages when finished with why is messaging so high and how do i get to the file to delete the information.
    Also can I view hat applications are in SIS and Other?
    All my photos and vids are on a 60GB sd card.
    Cheers

    Hi CH7086,
    Welcome to the forum!
    Do you have a lot of applications installed on your device? Have you tried un-installing some of them? If you're still getting an error after doing that, you can restore the device to its factory setting. Check this link for the instruction:
    http://www.nokia.com/ie-en/support/product/c7-00/u​serguide/?action=onlineuserguidepagechange&pFile=G​...
    Just don't forget to create a backup using the Nokia Suite to avoid data loss. Please get back to us if it's still the same. Hope this helps.

    Have you ever created a buck up of your phone. If you have one you have to restore it. Otherwise you have to install your phone software .
