Making room on your
smartphone
If you store a large amount of information,
or install many third-party applications, the
internal memory on your smartphone may
fill up. Here are some common ways to
clear space on your smartphone:
• Camera: Large images or videos take
up a lot of memory. Move images to an
expansion card or delete images from
your smartphone (see Pictures &
Videos).
• Messaging: Multimedia content and
email attachments can consume
excessive memory. Move multimedia
content and attachments to an
expansion card, or delete large files
from your smartphone (see Deleting
messages and Deleting a message).
You may also want to empty the
deleted items folder.
• Internet: If you save links to pages
you’ve visited in Internet Explorer
Mobile, you may want to clear all recent
pages (see Customisi
ng your Internet
Explorer Mobile settings).
• Third-party applications: You can
delete infrequently used applications or
move them to an expansion card (see
C
opying or moving applications and files
between your smartphone and an
expansion card).
Also, remember that your smartphone
includes an expansion card tray, and that
you can store applications and information
on expansion cards. However, you still
need free memory on the smartphone
itself to run applications from an expansion
card.
TIP Remember that not all third-party
applications were written with the Treo 500v
smartphone keyboard and 5-way navigator in
mind. You may encounter strange behavior or
errors in these applications if you use the
keyboard and the 5-way navigator.
