How can i solve this problem? im using firmware v3.14. Another thing i dont understand is when i use my camera it says i have only 11 photos left and 5.47minutes on video left. But surely since my phone is brand new i should have more. Im using a 64MB standard mem card. Help any1? Cheers in advance

i have the same problem, but mine is related with the messages... if you have lots of messages the phone will be slower and slower until it starts displaying that message... although you have 8MB free in phone's memory and 30MB free in the memory card! I would like to know if anyone have experienced this problem.

i have been using this phone for 4-5 months and this is my unsolved problem since day 1 i got this phone. i've unstalled fexplorer and app manager to tracked the ram memory status. even though all files that were open are closed or exit, the ram memory still keep running lower and lower as i use my phone until i cant open any new files and it'll says 'memory full, closed....'. then gotta reboot the phone to make the phone goes back to normal. sometimes have to do this 6-7 times depends on usage. this has nothing to do with phone memory as the reading is very constant as about 7plus mb when ram memory runs very low, seems like the ram memory is not cleared even though all files were closed or exit. brought it down to nokia, formatted twice(phone and mmc) but still they cant solve. now there is this few here this problem, are there some more who got this problem?

Just simply closing all the open applications by holding down the menu key solved the problem fine for me. Sounds like your phones got something up with it. Try speaking to nokia or whoever you got the phone from!!

Could be the messages. I've had phone for 4-5 months and never had this problem. I don't keep messages though. I have about 15 stored.

Why do you keep so many ?

3000 messages????? [splutters]

Why on earth would anyone want to keep 3000 text messages stored on a phone? Text messages are transient things at the best of times. JUst archive any important ones and zap the rest and your phone will work properly.

And yes, good advice from others about keeping the RAM free of certain apps which like to hog the processor (games and music players and camera).

Some problems solved, some not. Ive had my fone for a day and i installed Asphalt GT on it. Tried to run and came with the same error. Ive put my camera and video to write on the mmc, uninstalled ALL applications on the fone and the mmc that i can and even changed the message settings to read off the mmc too.

So ive only got Asphalt GT on the mmc and it has 47MB of free space left and still no go. Whats even stranger is that the game runs on my 6600 no problem!!!

I fawt the 6680 is meant to be more powerful than the 6600??? So whats that all about???

Any takers??
