storage memory full???



Hi,

Yesterday I installed ROM A12 on my X51V.
There were some issues, but I believe everything is OK.
Today I worked with my X51V, and after a while, when I wanted to execute an app stored on my SD card, I received an error message saying that the app wasn't there.
I opened up file explorer to check, and saw that indeed the card was empty, and I had a "new" card, called SD2.
I thought that possibly the SD car's FAT table was damaged, so I started moving all the folders from the "SD2" card to the SD card, and thought that I would clean it up later.
But then I received an error message that the card was filled up (don't know why, really, since it was about 40% filled up prior to the problem, so there should have been a lot of space).
So I started moving dolders from the "SD2" card to my PC, and after a while I received an error message on my X51V saying that storage memory was full ("storage memory is critically low").

I opened up the memory utility in my X51V, and indeed it was showing that the storage memory is full.

My questions:
a) How can I find what is eating up my storage memory?
b) How can I delete the unnecessary stuff from there?
c) would it be better to do a HR? This would mean a reinstall of all apps, which would take several hours, so I'm reluctant.

Thanks!!

Put the card in a memory card reader on a computer, copy over the needed files, format the SD card, put back the files, and put it back in the Ax.

Good idea, although it came a bit late for me (I messed my SD card).
I found a tip in Aximsite that said to begin a HR process and cancel it, and it should clean up the storage memory.
It didn't help in this case, so I finally decided to HR.
After HR I restored from a backup, synchronized and began copying the files back from my PC to the X51V.
Almost everything works now, it seems I didn't copy well some of the folders, so I have 2 apps to reinstall, no big deal.
Thank you all for your help.
