Getting More Free Memory for your V3
Ok, Im sure you've read about this and the thing is that most of phones branded by your provider, have all these files in the V3 that we dont even use ever.. So.. why don't get rid of them?..
First, Use a program like P2kTools.. why? because you need to put all your ring styles to SILENT, why? because otherwise you will have problem accessing later your ring-style Details..
Ok.. after connecting the phone to p2kTools.. do a refresh to check all the files you have.. and we're gonna check some of those folders and look for the files mentioned below.. and you will have to delete them..
In my case.. i didn't delete all of them cuz i thought i might need some of them like templates or some alerts.. so i only got almost 8 MB free.. but you can get up to 10 MB.. but that's up to you..
Note: Here says to delete FILES.. not FOLDERS.. so BE CAREFUL please.. most of these files may vary depending on your provider or software you have in your phone (ex. t-mobile, cingular, rogers, motorola branded, some other MP)
