My phone is saying that I have low memory, and there are constant warning signs coming up all the time on the phone telling me to create space.
The problem is that there is nothing for me to delete!
I had a look at my phone when I connected it, and there was literally nothing to get rid off.
So I had a look on my phone, and there is still nothing to get rid off.
Im not sure what to do and its saying I have less than 1MB left!...Im thinking it may be some sort of virus maybe, I have no idea...maybe someone could help me out? :0
Thanks!!

Happened to me before and I gave up trying to find a remedy and just re-flashed my phone to start fresh. Haven't had the problem since. Not saying this is the only answer, but 30 minutes of time and you're back with all your programs, texts, etc and a working phone!
have yout been downloading large files like over 100mb in either opera mobile or internet explorer because they both store a second copy of the files in the temporary files folder, this has happened to me to and that worked...

i want to get up and start using mobitv since i just got it..
i opened it the first time and it loaded good and asked me to update in order to continue so i did.
and now everytime i open it up i get a blank black screen, and sometimes a notification saying that i need a connection to get started. but i have my wifi and my data connections already connected so i dont see what the problem is.
anyone care to help? i tried searching but all it gave me was threads about asking where to download mobitv
reboot the phone.. or did you do it already?
yeah i already did countless times.. lol this is like the only app that isnt working for me for some reason.
umm.. i think you should take back to tmobile.. and tell them the application doesnt work, dont just stay quite talk to them they should solve the problem or they will give you a new one.
so i should take it back just cause mobitv isnt working? theres gotta be something else lol.
well i don't know about you..but ill want my hd2 without any problems i don't want to mess something up they'll do the job for me. but i don't know maybe somebody in here know what is going on with you hd2.

I had the same problem. Do a HARD reset, (see wiki). This should fix your problem.

Sorry, dual post.
My old sony ericcson phone used to hold an sms in the outbox if i had no signal and send it when i did.
This phone just pops up a very annoying message saying it cant be sent. I live in an area with very poor signal, and really need this phone to try for a while before telling me it cant send.
How can this be done?

Do search and ask around the ROM Development thread.
Pretty sure there's a cab to turn off the annoying notification.
As for the how many times the device should try to attempt sending an SMS before giving up, it should be somewhere in the Messaging setting for SMS/MMS. Please check. But you should consider that it will drain your battery rigorously.
im interested in this too, ur option BumAround doesnt awnser his question. he just wants the phone to see hey i got signal lets send this message i have in my outbox. not letting the phone keep trying to send it. (wich at its highest settings only tries to send it for like 30 seconds.)
@ jamieeeee, your right, is it possible to program the phone to do this? As i ponted out, its not new technology, and im surprised all phones dont do it!
exactly where is the setting to try sending out [messages, be it SMS or MMS] for 30 sec attempt? I thought it was only how many attempts (read: times)
well, if that being the case, no solution that I know of except: (1)experiment with better radio ROM, or (2)install a signal booster at where you live. Sorry.
i asked this question before... but it got brushed off considering that most people on here very seldom help other members.... but yea.. i despise having to constantly retry send over and over until i get better reception and it finally goes through... i would much rather have it just continue trying ON ITS OWN... there has to be a tweak or something which enables something so simple as this... i will continue searching but let me know if you find any updates towards it.. THIS WILL BE VERY USEFUL TO ME... i also live in a area with poor reception... (sucks cause RIGHT when i leave my apartments and onto the streets.. i have 3g...) lame...
I have been asking for since i first came to windows mobile early 2009, havnt found a single thing yet!
If my sony ericcson k750i can do it without losing its battery, then why cant a much more advanced windows mobile device do it!?

Well, but then constantly attempting to send on its own will mean battery drains, don't you think?
What you actually want is a cab that makes the phone on perpetual attempts mode until it succeeded, and then prompt a notice, is it ?
I still believe your best bet is to install signal booster somewhere in your house. Well, upon googling, I stumbled into this survivalist's method, cheap sticker thingy, to this expensive amp/booster.

in short..........
NO.... i don't "think" that sending a sms will put a drain to the battery.. even when retrying on its own... like the OP has stated.. old flip phones and what not have that ability so i HIGHLY doubt that it would be much different on a far more advanced phone... dont YOU think???
Other phones don't actually make constant attempts at resending the message after it fails the first time...
The unsent message sits in the outbox as a pending task until a signal is detected. When the phone detects a signal, the phone will make another attempt at sending the message, which is then usually successful.
A drain on the battery will only happen if the phone makes continuous attempts at resending the message regardless of whether or not it detects a signal. In this case, if the phone is set to retry every 30 seconds and someone is in an area where there is no signal for say 5 hours, the drain on the batter will be the equivalent of sending 600 messages!
The solution that we need is the first one where the message will in the outbox until the phone detects a signal....

still doubting that *perpetual attempts* of sending out an SMS will NOT drain the batt. oh well, but anyway....
so, the SMS is designed to sit in the outbox until the phone detects decent amount of signal strength to (re)sending out the SMS successfully.
all being said, the OP actually need the *failure message* (due to signal strength or no signal) to be silenced (no pop up window), until the SMS is being sent out successfully.
does it make sense?
I was sitting on the train on my way home a few minutes ago and found a registry key that LOOKs like it might have something to with this:
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCMessaging\Setting\SendRetryIntervalTemp
that's got a value of "5 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60"...
by looking at the value of the key, it looks like it retries 5 seconds after the first failed attempt... then 60 secs between each retry after that and perhaps gives up after the tenth fail?
The registry key is in the "HTCMessaging" folder, which I think is the folder that to covers emails, mms and sms. So it really could apply to any of those three items.
Maybe someone with a bit more knowledge than myself can help shed some light?
btw.. I have not made any attempts to modify or test the above, so if you do, you're doing it at your own risk! Just looks like an interesting key..
i think we're getting close.. someone please

I am using the custom Energy ROM, and i have that exact same reg key, but my phone pops up a message IMMEDIATELY after i hit the send button if there is not enough signal, so either this key is for something else, for the ROM im using has been altered.
It would makes sense if this key was the correct one because when i was using a stock ROM a while ago it did wait for a while before popping the message up. Anyone know what setting has been changed between my Energy ROM and the old stock one? Im guessing its been turned off to save battery.
Thanks,
Max
Ever since unlocking my phone, I have been experiencing very troublesome issues. It all started with picture messages not going through and giving me "Can't Send Message. Try Again." Then pictures that I received started coming in as "Media content in this message" that never downloads. I tried showing this to a friend of mine that also has WP7, but of course the image sent. That is literally the only picture I have been able to send in the past two weeks.
Nothing seems to affect it as far as battery percentage, signal strength, Wi-Fi connectivity, or anything.
Websites are also having a lot of trouble loading. Most won't load unless I let the loading bar get to about 90%, then re-enter the address. I also get a lot of "We're having trouble viewing this page right now" messages. Very frustrating.
The Marketplace has been having trouble loading at times as well.
Some apps and games that require internet connections are having spotty issues. Sometimes USA Today won't load any news. Words By Post gives me network connection errors. 4th and Mayor sometimes tells me I have no connection to location services.
All of this is really starting to frustrate me. I can't figure out what is going wrong. The only thing I can think of is that I Windowsbreak/interop unlocked my phone around the same time I started having issues. All I've installed is a battery percentage meter, a screenshot app, AdvancedConfig to change my themes and get rid of app dehydration, and WP7 Root Tools so I could get the 8107 update.
PLEASE, someone help me.
and for reference, I have a Samsung Focus with 8107 on it.
Oh and another issue, sometimes my phone goes through HUGE lag phases where scrolling through menus is incredibly choppy and slow. The only way to fix it is to lock the device and let it rest for a minute.
I may try and get video evidence of this.
I would do a hard reset and see how it works and then slowly proceed with unlocks/homebrews again one step at a time and make sure your phone works well before going the next step. And, make a back-up each time so you can go back one step if you find the one that messes up.
Never try to change and hack everything at once; errors can occur.
Ehh I'm really not trying to do a hard reset just yet...I'm hoping there is some magical solution to this.
SD Card?
Have you an SD Card installed and how much of it is used? Like you, I would do everything short of a hard reset to solve this problem.
No sir, no SD card has been installed into this phone. I learned my lesson after having to get a replacement when I got an irreversible card read error on my last Focus.
That being said, this is a refurbished device.

Some users were having data issues after windowbreaking. There is a fix in the thread and it's quite simple iirc. Ask in the thread.
edit: try this too

Well, after failed attempts at fixing this, and even working with Heathcliff on a solution, I decided to hard reset.
Re-unlocked my phone and installed AdvancedConfig. So far everything seems ok.
I know that it resets to release 5 instead of 6 which could lessen your data , but it is easily fixed in diagnostics :
*#32489#
back 1 time
NAS CONTROL
[5] RRC(HSPA) CONTROL
1 TO DISPLAY mine read release 5 after windowbreak
I then changed it back to release 6
you might also have dualmode turned off, turn it on for better perfomance
if you used heathcliffs interop did you also go to *#94765# auto sim config?
If all else fails talk Jax he made windowbreak!
Right, it seems I have a new phone, same old issue. I started a thread before on this, got no reply.
When I connect to the internet through mobile data (4g/3g) a pop-up appears asking me if I want to do this. Obviously I do, otherwise I wouldn't have pressed the button which enables data connection. Pretty pointless right? Read on.
After, when I'm finished on the net and I want to cease data connection to save power/money, I click again to disable mobile data and yes, another pop-up appears! This time asking me if I am certain that I want to limit my data usage and save myself some battery life. Maybe, just maybe this one time I feel like burning my battery out or racking up a nice 4 figure phone bill.
So, I've gone through the forums, found that some people managed to rid themselves of this irritation on their xperia something somethings using an app called "Elixer" I think. They find and delete/disable a certain file on their phones and problem solved. Bam. No more needless questions when trying to do simple tasks.
Anyone know where this file is on the S4? Please? Answer this time?
Last time I spent a week or so killing the hell out of my phone with superfluous mods and roms until it wouldn't turn on anymore and I had to put it through the wash "accidentally" to claim insurance. Not planning to do that again. HELP!

Seriously? Nothing. Nobody can fix this here?
So I was doing cardio at the gym with my rooted verizon s5 in my pocket. It was only for about 30 minutes and I checked my phone before I started. Once I finished, I checked my phone, only to see the set-up menu asking me what language I wanted, gmail account, etc. I have a lock screen on my phone, so I don't see how it could have pressed the right buttons to reset in my pocket even of the phone was turned on somehow. I had quite a few hours customizing it, so I'm pretty pissed. I did do a back-up and according to root checker I still have root access, so I guess I'll just do that even though the back-up is like a month old. I'm just wondering what the hell happened, and more importantly, how I prevent it in the future. I was getting constant requests for updates and security reports, but always dismissed them because I was told that was normal. Thanks in advance and let me know if you need anymore info.

I restarted mine the other day pulling it out of my pocket. I thought that was odd...
Samsung pocket reset explained. ****ED ME OVER
So about 3 months ago i was playing ultimate Frisbee on a school trip with some friends with my S5 in my pocket. After about 30 minutes of play i heard my phone making a strange noise. I pulled it out and realized i was operating in Chinese on a screen that was seemingly a setup screen. All my phone data had been lost due to a factory reset. I was pissed but it wasn't that big of a deal because i had gotten the phone a week earlier. So I reinstalled the few apps I had, re downloaded my contacts, and didn't look into to it much. But today, four months later, I was doing the same exact thing, playing ultimate Frisbee with some friends, and it happened again. But this time I had a 32 GB SD card in that was nearly full of important pictures, videos, files, folders, documents and schoolwork. What I now know is those retards at Samsung made it so the phone thinks the SD card is part of the phone AND IT PERMANENTLY FORMATTED IT. I was am and still livid that those ****tards have no way to fix this problem what so ever. The phone has a defense mechanism that resets the phone after too many incorrect password attempts and the phone against my leg in my pocket did the ****ing trick! Me - "So there is no way to recover the data?" Dumb Samsung ****head - "No its a permanent reset that protects the phone from intruders". How Stupid do you have to be to create something like that, that can be triggered by so many other means than an intruder, AND HAVE NO WAY TO FIX IT. I am now ****ED by Samsung and never purchasing a phone from them again. DON'T BUY SAMSUNG THEY ARE ****. And don't buy Apple either because they are WORSE. Hopefully this helps someone hate Samsung a little more because I'm SCREWED.
