Samsung Galaxy S3 - Insufficient Storage???

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi,

Since having my S3 I've had nothing but problems with it. After having a sim swap and been taken in for repair and STILL not fixing the problem, i'm at my wits end!!

 

Basically, my phone keeps alerting me that I have insufficient storage. However, if i go on to my storage it says this:
Total Space: 11.25GB

Apps: 563MB
Pictures: 27.05MB

Audio: 72.86MB

Miscellaneous: 148KB

 

AVAILABLE: 434MB

 

Where the hell is all my storage?!

I've rebooted/reset my phone 7 times now, it's happened that many times! But I shouldn't have to keep losing ALL my photos and contacts and eveything because of this horrible fault! 

 

What should I do??

What is it showing now after the reset?

 

This is mine currently and I've got 50+ apps installed.

Check it daily and see if you get any significant changes. If you do, note what you have done that day. I guess you didn't clear data properly before maybe because you were told to do it through the phone menu rather than recovery menu, but we'll see how it goes....
