    I have an 8gb micro sd card and I have moved all my apps onto it.However my internal memory is nearly completely used up (24mb) but I have no Idea what with.I've deleted 99% of my photos and I have about 20 txt messages so why is it so low? What can I do to increase the internal memory? Would clearing all the caches of the apps help?

    Thank you!

    I found that contacts cache was what used up all my memory on my old LG. If you have your facebook sync set up or other accounts that use your contacts - it will be photos and data from there.

    I had a look in my settings and I haven't gotten any accounts other than my gmail account set up with my zte blade and only a handful of contacts so I shouldn't see how that could be a problem.But thank you for the suggestion :)

    Try looking through settings>applications>manage applications. Go through each one and check the space used by each application, you may find its temporary files used by maps or navigation. 24MB is not a huge amount so even a lot of small programs can quickly add up. Adobe uses a fairly large chunk of memory...
