I have an xperia mini pro with a 2Gb card in it. Now I expect it to use some of that card for the various preinstalled apps etc but to use over 1Gb and not let me reclaim any of it!
Connecting it to my PC I can go to the card and look at properties which tells me I have 1.55Gb used. But select all the files and directories show and look for properties and it tells me that they take up 719Mb. That's nearly a gigabyte of memory filled with 'stuff' that I appear to not be able to remove so that I could use the space for something sensible. Now a quick search on here suggests using file explorer to delete things like the manual but they appear not to exist on my phone. So how do I reclaim some of this space?
All of this comes about because I was trying to copy on the music from my old phone and it only accepted a fraction of it and then fell over. Turns out that although they are both 2Gb, 2Gb on the xperios is a lot less thanon my old Sony Ericsson. The only way the get around that was to use file explorer to del;ete my music files at which point Media Go would try to dump the next few music files on the phone and fall over at which point I would repat the exercise until it stabilised itself.
