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

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

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..

"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 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.

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 N8 - RAM memory full at video playback

Hello.Every now and then when i watching som videos on my Nokia N8 it will stop and display a message that says something like "General! The Phone memory is full, try to close som apps and try again".
The thing is that i have even close the "menu app"...i dont have any apps running except some widgets like Email, facebook, some blogs. But the are in offline mode.
What can be wrong?

Really Important>>>>>>>>>
Hi everybody, I was thinking of an amazing trick to do, except, that I don't know where I should post it. aint like I'm new here yet I want everybody to read this.....
I'm a C++ Programmer however I've minimal to no clue bout compiling S^3 apps, but if anyone can put me in the right direction, that'd be absolutely great...
>>>>>>>>>So let's get to the point....>>>>>>>>>>>
How about 15 Gigs of ram on N8 sounds astounding and legendary... and mostly unbelievable..
I do believe it's possible dough if I can somehow manage to force the phone read the E drive (Mass memory drive) as THE D: Drive (Ram Drive).
I cooked my own firmware and made alot of modification to the current exsisting firmware. but again, i don't have what it takes to make it go SYMBIAN ! SOME HELP WOULD BE REALLY REALLY APPRECIATED.
I was also thinking bout another trick which is to expand ram through partly using a dedicated space on the E drive, as in Windows pagefile.sys.
Please.....Let everyone know about this and e-mail me if you can give me sometips on how to proceed... I'm intending to share this with everyone... and credits to all who have helped me.

Nokia (N8) phone memory : best practices / guide t...

Hi,
I'd like to know what are the best practices to manage space / memory on my phone.
On the N8 user guide, it is simply written : "If possible, install applications to the mass
memory or memory card, rather than the device memory." (p.112) And that's all !
If I understood well there are 3 types of memory on N8 :
256 Mo RAM
512 Mo ROM (Phone memory, C: )
16 Go storage (Mass memory, E: )
[and also 32GB expendable memory SDHC card 4x minimum]
Since I bought my N8, I installed everything (apps and multimedia files) on E: (mass memory)
Today I have on :
C: Phone memory : 158 Mo free space over 254,4 Mo
E: Mass memory : 732,1 Mo / 14,3 Go (with 12,3 Go of MP3 files)
I am using a software called Netqin Mobile Guard for S^3 (which by the way I like a lot, especially the "prompt for connection" and the "web usage manager" functions) and it tells me that I have "insufficient memory on disk E:"
So here are my questions :
1 - Is it true that 732 Mo free on disk E: is not enough ?
2 - Why is better to install everything on mass memory if there is 256 Mo RAM and free space on phone memory ?
3 - If I use a SDHC card to free some space on E: (move all my MP3 files), will it consumes more battery power?
I spent some time looking for answers on internet but I didn't find any to these questions... Any help would be much appreciated. Also if you have any advice on RAM optimisation, I'd take it ! My way to optimise it is to close all apps I'm not using from the app manager. Thanks in advance and sorry for the long post, but I think it would be helpful for a lot of people!
Regards

Question 1.> 732MB is what is left on the internal mass memory. NetQin is just warning you that you do not have much storage left if you want to add more files. The " insufficient memory on disk E " is just an over dramatic warning in my opinion.
--> this is also what I thought but as I wrote in my previous answer, I'd like to be sure my phone is not going to crash if my data reach 99% of E: capacity
Question 2. > It is better to leave as much free memory as possible on the C drive to give the phone better performance. The less memory their is on C the slower the phone becomes.
--> that's what I understood from what I've read but does it mean that "C: memory" is used more or less as additional RAM memory? Or is it just (as you say about Netqin app.) an "over dramatic warning" from Nokia to prevent users from reaching full capacity and then crashing the phone?
Question 3. > I'm not sure by adding an SD card would consume any significant amount of extra power. Unless you are permanently accessing the SD card. It wont consume extra power when the phone is idle.
--> then I may need to buy a SD card to store all my MP3s and let everything else on the mass memory. I asked this question 'cause I remember having noticed using a palm with a sd card (I know this is old stuff) that it impacted the battery.
It would be nice to have official statements from Nokia on these topics, don't you think?
Thanks anyway for your answers!

Nokia E60 phone memory corruption?!

My beloved E60 is finally giving signs of hard everyday use. I had it for about 2 years and its looks like there might be a corruption with the phone (not the memory card) memory. This is the internal 64MB. All my contacts are saved on the phone memory, as I make use of multiple entries for one contact. I do have a 1 GB MMC card, which tends to work, but don't use it to store anything on. Why do I think the phone memory is corrupt?
Well, I had the following which in my opinion points to corruption:
- unable to save contacts occasionally, says memory is full (even when there should eb a few MB's left)
- some contacts from my address book, don't show any name, just the number, when they call me
- doing a Backup with PC Synch, works, but oepning the nbu file, appears to be incomplete
- the Contacts when loaded in PC Synch, do not all have phone numbers, despite having a number on the phone entry
- the MMC card sometimes says its corrupted, however, when ejecting it and then re-inserting it then seems fine
I am running it with the latest firmware (3.0633.09.04). Its not under warranty any longer and I am happy to do a full reset, if only I could be sure that the backups I have (using the Create a Backup to Memory card) would work. Quite scared to trust it, as there are just too many contacts in the phone (numbers, addresses, email, fax etc).
If anyone has any thoughts on how to get this sorted, please post here - getting a bit desperate.
Thanks

The only thing I can suggest you do if your phone memory is truly corrupted is to reformat the phone. You can do this by using the *#7370# code. Please remember to backup your phone before attempting it. I would do 2 backups, one with eveything and one without the phone specific settings. The reformat will wipe out all your data. You will need the backup to restore your data back to the phone afterwards. You may also need to reinstall some of the applications you installed.

2600 Classic Phone memory Full

I am not able to add phone numbers in my contacts list after about 900 phone numbers. The phone says phone memory is full. I still have 8MB free on my phone. Is there a separate memory for phone list? Can I increase this?

i'm not 100% sure, but i have a feeling that quite a lot of phones now have a 1000 phone number limit, so i am sure that you have reached that. in saying that, i do not think you can increase this limit any further, maybe clean up your phone numbers?
If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

Using Nokia N73 phone to access mac mail

I can access my exchange emailat work using nokia n73 (supports imap4).
I want to configure my samrtphone to access mac mail. I have two .mac accounts, one for me and one for mi wife and I would like to do the same as I do with exchange at work (realy works fine!). Is it possible?
I have just turned to mac at home (1 mac g5 and imac)
Thanks
Valdes

If your phone has a built in eMail client that supports POP or IMAP mail or can run a Java app client (J2ME/MIDP2) then that should be fine. Might depend on your contract with sprint if you can use internet services.
I use a SonyEricsson K750i to access .Mac and my company eMail. I can send email and even attach pictures from the camera if i need to. Typing longer messages with T9 support is not really funny, but works.

Is Mail being pushed to your device?
Although it would be a pain necessitating backup of essential data first, you could always reset device to "Out of box" state by keying in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by user).

Nokia Asha 206 Phone memory problem.

I have a Nokia Asha 206. Recently I updated it. After the update now out shows phone memory full all the time though I don't have any file in phone memory accept those which I could not delete. Please tell me how to solve this problem cause even if anyone sends me text msg it does not come to my phone cause memory is full. Even I can't send any msg. Everytime I try to send or receive something it showed memory full.i have external memory having 700mb free space but only 37kb internal free space.

Hi, wasimul. Welcome to our community. We suggest deleting some of your files like photos, videos, and text messages that you no longer need. You can also save your contacts directly to the memory card to avoid such issue. Another option is to reset it to its original settings. Here's how: Restore factory settings. The link is still applicable regardless of your location. We look forward to your reply.

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!
