Storage space running out problem

[JadeBaco]

I deleted most of my photos, downloads etc. But it still keeps saying that. I can't download anything on google play anymore.

go to settings-storage and look there what occupies most of your memory. you can also tap cache and delete all cache i hope this helps

[JadeBaco]

Any app that could look for hidden thumbnails?

I use Astro as I know from my Xperia S days you can choose to show hidden files and folders

I have astro but it takes ages to delete individual photos

@ JadeBaco,

Can you please advise what the figure shows within Storage.

Menu > settings > Storage

Let us know what is using the memory, you should see a colorful bar with a legend below it.

In Astro tap on Multi then select all then delete or select all then tap on files you want to keep to deselect then tap delete

7.38gb photos. I think they are hidden spam photos

@ JadeBaco,

If you wish to remove the photos faster, I suggest that you connect your handset to a PC and find the DCIM folder with thumbnails and remove them. You can easily scan through folders using a PC.

Are you aware on how to access the internal storage through a PC?
