What do you see when you go to settings ? General ? usage and look under the storage categories?
3.8 is available. 9.8 used. The largest thing is music at with 1.2 gb. Everything else is under a gig.
I'm not sure on this at all - you said you deleted all of your buddy's music, now I know album art could take up "other" depending on how much you apply from the music. I wonder could it be possible that the album art still remains even tho the music is deleted ??? Just a shot in the dark. I know I saw a thread floating around here somewhere on how to get rid of it but unfortunately I can't recall which forum section. Maybe trying a search for it will turn it up.
Also, I know it may not be possible to come close to the 9.5, but does your friend have a lot of contacts with pics assigned to them as well? That could be part of the culprit too....
G'luck, I hope you guys figure it out, and plz do share what the 9.5gb was !! I've never heard of so much taken up.
Yeah I've had mine jump up to 2 or 3 Gb before. Never have I seen it jump that high. We removed all album artwork when we put his music back on, ive been looking through ifile trying to find these that could be causing it. I freed up 3.5ish GB so far, he only had 600mb free when we started.
I'll have to look through his contacts see if that helps at all.
UPDATE: None of his contacts have any pictures. I couldn't find anything out of the ordinary when looking through ifile, but I wouldn't know what exactly to look for. I deleted his entire cache folder. Didn't help.
To the OP, sorry for hijacking your thread.
