Jamaldo Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Hello folks. For a couple of weeks now I've had this message on my phone, "Storage space running out", despite the fact I basically never download anything. I've only downloaded three apps since I bought the phone last summer (one of them being P+B of course ) so no idea why I'm getting this message but after a wee google it seems to be a common issue. Just wondering if anyone's had this issue and if you did how did you resolve it quickly? I've deleted a few shitey things that were on it to tide me over but that won't work forever. I'd be willing to get a micro memory card as they're not expensive but if there's an easy fix that would be preferable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEADOWXI Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Hope someone does know a solution, About the only thing that annoys about the phone I have (Samsung S5), get the message weekly and seems to want to delete stuff and I can't find anything to delete as haven't downloaded anything.

Yeah the only things I can get rid of aren't going to free up anywhere near enough space. I also have a Samsung phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Did you try any of the suggestions here clicky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamaldo Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 Tried that and it hasn't worked. I have a misc. file called "comtapatalklabspieandbovril", which is using up over 1gb of storage. That could be what's causing the issue. Could I delete this or do I need it to use the app properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I had a problem similar to this with my Expira Arc. It was as simple as emptying the trash in my e-mail folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Clear the cache, will probably free up a GB or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamaldo Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 Clear the cache, will probably free up a GB or so. I've done that and it's barely freed up any space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst that will happen is you'll have to reinstall the app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamaldo Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 Deleted it and the message is gone. The app seems to be working fine still as well. Thank f**k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
