Before you flame, I did do a few searches but couldn't find anything on the topic although I think i've seen it listed before...

My girlfriend decided to never delete any photos and now the phone takes about 4 minutes to switch on and then comes up with memory full. It takes ages to do anything and then will hang/crash eventually. Is there anyway to save it?? Our nearest NSC is miles and miles away and were both always working so I hope there's a way around it! :robot: :evil:

It seems to me that its the old v3.12 bug.If you can do a hard reset,the phone will be saved but all data will be losts.If that don't work,your only chance is NSC.

If the firmware is v3.12 i advise you to upgrade it,ASAP.

It's 3.16, any chance of it recovering? :-?

I don't know.Try deleting some data,or doing a backup and then formating it.

Have you tried the holding down 'ABC' key to bypass startup programs trick?

Yes,he can try that too,but i don't think it will be of any use,his phone can start up,i just takes to long to do so,i hope i'm wrong.

Doh, no luck :(

Thanks for the help guys but I think a trip to the NSC is in order, bah...
