Hello everybody,
neef some help in this issue.
I always get a message saying that my data storage memory is nearly full and it tell me to delete some medsages, contacts or calendar events.
I only have 500 contacts, 2 month of calendar events and about 30 messages.
I delete 1 month of calendar events and it did not solve the problem, so then I delete all my messages that did not solve the problem but then gave me another problem saying that my sim card was full but it was not.
I removed the sim card to see if I still get the storage message problem which it did.
Now I was left only to delete my contact I deleted about 350 contact and that worked.
Put the sim card back in now it all fine but what I cannot understand is how many contacts can you store in the tablet how much data storage memory is they in the tablet.
When I was using WM 6.5 I had nearly 700 contact a a full year of calendar event and over 100 sms and I never had this issue.
Is this a problem with my tablet or is an normal thing?
Please need some advice.
Thanks
Gigino

Hope this is not a stupid question?
I use my diamond for work and on my S730 i had a cab file that used my Storage Card instead of the phone to store mail. I used this cab file on the diamond but does not work. Does anyone know how to use the internal storage instead of the phone for my mail
Thanks

in the mail settings you can choose to let attachments of e-mails be stored in the internal storage. The mail itself can't be stored on the internal storage, but i don't see the point of that (because a email is about 1/2 kb most of the time.
Thanks for the reply. The reason i like to save all to the storage card is i had the whole 2gb mailbox on my 4gb card on my S730 phone. We do not currenly have exchange 2007 and i can not use the search option. As i am out alot around our 4 sites its a pain if i need an email that is not stored on my phone as on the road alot. That is why i had that cab file that changed the settings some how so it stored all emails and attachments on my old card. I am sure someone will release a hack to do the same on the Diamond
Thanks

Yes it can...the (PropertyPath) setting is just located in a different registry setting.
However, I've tried it and immediately ended up getting the common "Storage Card2 issue", a known issue with this trick.
So I've reverted back to the default setting. But you're right that just the emails aren't all that big to begin with.
I would'nt encourage you to put 2 gig of e-mails on your phone. Isn't it smarter to just get the last few days of mail via your phone and if you need a older mail you use the webinterface of your e-mail provider? (on your phone with opera ofcourse)
Hello Everyone
I have lurked and gathered info for some time and would like to thank all the contributors to this community
I was hopin to find a permanent solution for the non functioning messaging app problem many have encountered, a discussion and workaround is posted here
http://www.htcwiki.com/thread/1072623/Can%27t+get+to+Messaging+anymore?offset=0&maxResults=20
If you have not had this problem, basically messaging will not respond unless you delete the inbox on your storage card (if you opted to store messages on your sd card). While this does restore messaging functionality it forces you to keep your mesaages on the phones memory, unfortunately that is not an option for me, as I use my phone for work and all of my customer invoices are stored on my work email account which is ideal for me however that requires more space than the internal memory provides. So I was hoping someone had found a permanent solution so I could keep my emails on my storage card without resetting up my email every month and a half or so (presently thats been the average).
thanks again for all the help from the board
Hello forum,

SD card is mounted
Internal Memory
Total Space 12.83
available space 9.18
Internal Phone Storage
Available space 1.08GB

Delete some user created data from Contacts, Message, Calendar, or Call log and try again
I've delete all Calendar, Call logs Messages and it says that my sim is full whats the problem here.
Any help please.
Thank You

Database storage is dbdata
Open a terminal app and enter "df" to see how much space is free on dbdata. If it's full, we need to thing of a way for rectify the issue, if it's not full then I'm completely wrong/thick
Ok I had the issue with my contacts2.db under /dbdata becoming very large (approx 90mb) and found a solution. Im posting it here in case it helps others. The solution had nothing to do with my handset or android in general. it was ALL to do with google contacts.
when i logged on to google contacts and tried to export "My Contacts" in an effort to fix up the problem with contacts2 on my android device being so large i discovered something weird. There is an option in the export panel to export "All Contacts" as an alternative to "My Contacts". Now "My Contacts" showed me having approx 400 contacts but "All Contacts" showed as 390000+ contacts.... WTF???... Anyhow having pulled the contacts2.db off my droid and used a sqlite browser to examine the data I noticed there seemed to be at least 300 copies of each contact. So it seems like droid is syncing "All Contacts" from google instead of "My contacts" (unverified, just my assumption).
Within google contacts there is a function to "Find and Merge duplicate contacts" which seems to chose a subset (maybe 10 or so) of your contacts and search for duplicates and merge them into a single record. After performing "Find and Merge duplicate contacts" continually until i received the "No Duplicates found" response i then went back to the "export" function and noticed my "ALL Contacts" had come down from 390000+ to approx 400.
Then on my droid i went into settings=>applications=>manage application=>All=>contacts storage and hit "clear data" and rebooted it. The contacts resync'd from google contacts and then when i checked "contacts storage" it had come down from 90mb to 1.4mb.
I have no answer at this stage as to why google contacts was getting so many duplicates. My only guess is that it is something to do with the sync back from droid to gcontacts. Anyhow I just thought i would publish the solution i found as I have seen plenty of threads from other people with the same issue.
Good luck !

Hello All,
I am having an exchange server email account configured in my phone, everything was working smoothly and then my contacts syncying started to fail giving me "system out of memory" error.
The issue is only appearing with contacts, mail and calendar are working fine, when I try syncing I have more than 200MB of memory free.
Any suggestions ?

What about total storage on the phone? How much do you have left?
700 MB free on internal storage and 5 GB on SD

Do you have a lot of contacts and do a lot of those contacts have photos assigned to them?

Approximately how many contacts do you have? It seems like you have enough resources on the phone unless you have an unusually large number of contacts.

he would have to have well over a million contacts for that to be the cause

Speaking from personal experience, are you?
I have around 1500 contact, about 500 of them gave pictures assigned.
The contacts are already existing on the phone but only 700 of them are uploaded on the exchange email server, I made sure that my mailbox has enough space.

I finally managed to get resolved, i removed the task killer app and the contacts sync was back on track, seems like it was consuming much memory. It is a fact that it does more harm than good

Thanks for the follow-up and a good thing to note. Task Killers really haven't had much benefit since Froyo as they did on previous versions of Android.
For a few week i used whatsapp without any problem on android auto. Since 2 days it does not work anymore.
When i want sent a message and call the name of a person, i get a message that the person is unkwown. This happens with every person.
Can someone give me a solution?
I think you might have swapped the SIM cards or either you have deleted the cache memory of the whatsapp or contacts application, you should backup it from the email provided by sync the detailed database or through the address book of the email address.
