Z1 Internal Memory

Vahe_Sahakyan — Sat, 20 Jun 2015 07:36:36 GMT

I began receiving an alert that 75% of my phone memory is used. When I check the memory it shows 9GB used out of 11GB. This is a bit strange because I have not installed/dowlnoaded any massive data. When I connect my phone to the computer and check the total meory used my the folders on the internal memory it shows the Explorer indicates only 3.5GB total. I also noticed that my phone began restarting itself from time to time. Is it a virus? I have Avira installed which does not find anything wrong.

They might be some residual system update files, I'd suggest that you do a PC Companion phone repair, this will do a clean installation of the latest firmware and will also wipe your internal memory. Don't forget to back up your data before you proceed.

Open PC companion -> Support zone -> Phone/tablet software update -> Repair my phone/tablet (blue link style). Follow the steps given, do not connect your phone until prompted to press volume down while plugging USB cable.

Settings-storage,tap on cache and clear it. See how much it will free of your memory. Also,see the folder named LOST.DIR. Are there any files in it?

Have you cleared cache then?
