Life with Me in the middle
S60 is filling me up
Recently I have been keeping an eye on how much space I’ve been using on my N96. Like most of you I installed everything on my internal mass memory to prevent my smartphone from filling up. Unfortunately this doesn’t seem to matter and I’m at a loss on how to fix this.
I have watched as the space of my C: continues to dwindle into nothing. The real question is where does this space go? Sure there are temp files and I understand this but over 70MB worth? I consider this a major flaw in the S60 platform. With no clear way on how to clean up your wasted space its inevitable that I will run out of room and then what. Will my phone simply crash?
If you know how to prevent or clean up my wasted space my ears are open. As for S60, we need a utility to clean up wasted space much like the one on windows that allows you to clear temp files. Am I alone with this concern? Leave your feedback below.

Double check that you don’t subscribe to any RSS feeds in the browser. On my N95 I had an issue where I had a couple RSS feeds, and as they updated the phone never truncated the feed. So the file kept getting larger and larger. And, with a non-hacked device, the location of the large file was hidden from me. As soon as I deleted the RSS feeds, and the space came right back.

Thanks for the heads up. I was able to reclaim a lot of my space by moving my message store to the memory card. However its horribly slow when storing text in mass memory. It takes from 10 to 30 seconds for messages to come up, sometimes longer. Honestly be happy to change to the 5800 XpressMusic whenever it comes.
