"not enough internal memory for working"
« on: August 31, 2004, 04:03:02 pm »
My 5500, tkrom 1.0, won't let me instal any software, because it says the internal storage is full. But all my apps except the Sharp PIMS are on SD card, and I have changed nothing from the last time I installed something, at which time virtually all the internal storage was available.
It won't even let me instal to SD card, it says  "not enough internal memory for working", even though I have 12 mb free. It also won't let me set up a new wlan connection, saying "Insufficient memory. Cannot create setting information."
Yet apps open no problem.
Any help would be much appreciated!

I have the same problems with my C-750
I try to install the japanese-dict (15 MB) to my SD card and got this message. I have at least 3,5 MB memory free.

If it helps anyone, what happened was I had created a swap file on the RAM, using the memoryapplet  (thanks Maslovsky), and although I had removed it, it was still using up all the remaining internal storage. I removed it using advanced FM, and all was well.

I havn´t used a swap at this point, but later I created a 32MB swap file on my SD Card , to fix it, but it didn´t worked.

I´m currently reflashing the ROM because I got some errors with bad tar headers when installing japanese-dictionary.
