[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1819828, member: 110816"] Just a point of clarification, what you are referring to is the storage of the device and not memory. Memory is used to represent RAM of which you likely have 4 8 or 16GB likely and the usage of that resets back to 0 every time you restart the device. Storage, on the other hand, doesn't reduce by just restarting. For starters, how much total storage do you have on your device? Can you reboot your device (not just put it to sleep) and see if you can get up to a reasonable state? You should keep at least 20% of your drive free for optimal performance and for the ability to fix issues without constantly running into warning messages. [/QUOTE]
