Cant Delete SMS - other ways to delete ?

[sammy78]

Ive been trying to trash my inbox / sent / Trash folders to free up some memory..

it starts really slow, the phone seems to freeze when it starts..
any other way to trash the folders?
or any tricks to make it happen w\out taking all day or freezing?

delete the theme if you have one installed uan unse the moto standard theme.
clean up the phone mem, delete some java apps/games if the phone-mem is full... maybe you have lots of phone numbers, delete some you are not using...
maybe you are using e-mail and there lots of mem are used, delete the e-mails...

well i change my theme to indoor when deleting messages but still takes a long time..

phone mem is 12.9mb free 19 used
not using email either
I was hoping there was a folder that when I plug in w\ my usb ?

you should delete the installed theme, not only change it...

do you using the swap file on the mem-card?

[sammy78]

so delete it ? how does that help?
what do u mean by swap file on the mem card?

[ycyas]

some e680/i users have a swap-file installed on thier phone, but i think you havnt. i m not using it either.

just delete the theme, for looking that the phone will go faster..

[sammy78]

nope deleting the theme did not change anything..
hmmmm

hmm... goes the phone real slow or just on the start up?

[sammy78]

both..
it takes a while to start deleting. and then it took like an almost an hour to delete 6 messages out of my 605

hmm.. i never had that problem..

i just delete 190 sms in 2 minutes.

on start up its normal that the phone will go slow for max. 2minutes long..
