Hello,
I just got my T300.
When I checked the memory status,
I found that the free memory was 4xx KB at the first time.

However, when I opened a MMS message and some MMS Template,
the free memory reduced to 2xx KB only............
I think the memory was eaten by the system as it needs to open the non-used MMS messages.

Now, I have lost around 200KB which are eaten by the system,
and I don't know what's the method to release them.
I have master reset the phone many times,
and here is just 2 MMS templated now.
But the memory status shows that there are 209KB now which is the same as have around 10 templates before reset.
And I added all memory used of all items and the memory has just 925KB, but not the originally 106x KB.

Would some users kindly help me about this issue?
Thanks a lot

one idea (not solution to your problem) is that when you delete something (tune,picture,game) that came with the phone, the phone won't actually delete it, only make it unavaliable. This because it has to be able to put it back when making a "full restore". Only a thought.

i deleted all stock pics and ringtones off my t68i, then i installed 50 of my own pictures 5 screensavers and 25 ringtones and 4 themes, have about 150kb left... so i assume my phone releases memory when i delete the stock stuff, cause otherwise there would be no way i could have fitted all i did into a phone with its original content... so i don't know... i remeber seeing something like 895 kb left, when i was uploading the first picture on the clean phone...

858Kb when all added on my T300!

I have done master reset several times and the first two times I did it my MMS-Template folder decreased in memory usage. Now my MMS-Template folder takes 111Kb but there are only two templates there.

I did a master reset today. And after that I had 1024Kb in memory when I added it all together.

But by just clicking arond in the menus. Changing the language and screen settings and stuff. NOT downloadning anything new, it is now only 946Kb when I add it all together.
