Nokia 5800 Xpress Music

Free up your phones internal memory

Nokia 5800 comes with 88 MB of Flash memory (internal memory) i.e phone memory. I which i don't think is enough when you browse internet(WAP) service and update to a newer version, install  and try out new applications ,games and themes

Here are some easy ways to reclaim space (do make a note of your starting figure, as quoted in 'File Mgr' and then compare at each stage)

• delete any known large attachments from Messaging and/or Nokia Messaging
  
• delete any direct downloads you've done
  
• remove any trial applications you've installed to 'Internal memory'
  
• use Y-Browser (or similar) to delete the '\cache' folder on C: (deleting the cache from inside Web isn't as reliable)
• Change the settings of your camera to save the video clips or images on E:memory card (make this as the default saving memory)
• Do change the default saving memory of Messages to E: Memory Card rather than C: Phone Memory, you ca dothis by going to MENU | MESSAGING | OPTIONS | SETTINGS | OTHER | Memory in use, change it to E: Memory Card

• (if a Google Maps user) use 'Options | Tools | Reset' - this frees up memory used for cached maps

This is really going to save some MB's of your Phone Memory, If you wish to save more of the space of your phone memory than refer to the below steps.

Here's how to reclaim as much space as possible of your Nokia 5800's internal flash memory.

1. Go into 'File Mgr'. You'll find this in the 'Applications' folder. Note the current free disk space on 'C' (often labelled 'Phone memory').
   
2. Double-tap on 'Backup' and check that 'Backup contents' is set to 'All'.
   
3. Use 'Options | Back up now' to do a backup (to card). You can say 'Yes' to the prompt about overwriting a previous backup, if applicable.
   It's also now a good idea to check that you know which applications you've installed to disk C and that you know where to download/restore the SIS files from - in case you have to reinstall at the end of the procedure.
   
4. When finished (the backup takes a couple of minutes to run), go to the dial pad (on the home screen) and tap out *#7370#, the 'hard reset' sequence for S60 phones. Effectively, this completely wipes the C disk and forces the Operating System to start its system folders from scratch. Your phone will restart as part of this sequence and note that the startup will take a bit longer than usual.
   
   PS. The 'lock code' for a Nokia handset is '12345', unless you've changed it or unless you have a
   network-branded phone and the network has changed it!!
   
   
5. Once restarted, go back to 'File Mgr', to check free space on disk C again (about 88MB, but this will vary according to the exact 5800 variant you own)
   
6. Tap on 'Backup' again, but then tap on 'Options | Restore'.
   
7. Check all the content boxes and then tap on 'OK'. Wait while your data, settings and applications are restored from the backup.
   
8. Restart the phone.
   
9. Go back into 'File Mgr' and you should see that you now have significantly more free disk space on 'C'.
   

You should now be up and running, but may have to complete the following steps:

• Reinstate your Bluetooth pairings (e.g. with your headset and desktop
  
• Re-organise your application folders again, if needed, as the assignments of apps to folders will have been reset to the default.
  
• Re-install any applications that had been installed to disk C, if needed. Google Maps is one that you will need to do.
