Low internal memory
The memory will slowly start to disappear as you download things and use the phone more.
View how much memory can be stored on the phone

Install a memory card
You need more storage and luckily you can add more to your phone via micro SD card. To do this go to the back of the phone and open the back. Look at the battery removal repair guide. Once you have taken the back and the battery out of the phone there should be a white card in between the camera and where the battery was. The bottom slot is for the SIM card (which is already there) and the top is the slot for the microSD card. Place the microSD card as shown in the diagram where the battery was, faced down.

To clear your cache, go to ‘Settings’ and then to ‘Storage’ and scroll down go to ‘Cached Data’ and click on that. It will ask you if you want to clear cached data, this will clear cached data for all apps. Press ‘OK’. You will have two cached data files, one in ‘Internal Storage’ and one under phone. Clear both of them, this will clear some space.
Uninstall unused apps
To uninstall your apps, click on ‘Apps’ which will lead you to a list of apps you have installed on your phone. You can see which apps are taking the most space on your phone, which are already listed from the greatest to lowest consumption, so just click on the app and there should be an uninstall button to press and a message will pop up asking if you are sure you want to delete the app. Press ‘OK’.
Delete any videos/photos
Videos can take up a lot of space, so if you have videos or pictures you don’t want, you can delete them by the following these steps: Go to ‘Settings’ and then to ‘Storage’, in ‘Storage’ click on ‘Pictures’, ‘Videos’. This will bring you up to the photos and videos you have taken, you can delete them by going in the folder and clicking the pictures or videos and then 3 dots will be displayed in the upper-right hand side on the screen, click that and the first option should say delete, click it and it will clear some of your data.
Perform a hard reset
In order to do this you will have to backup all of your data onto a computer (if you want to). Once you have backed up all of your data, you are going to go to ’Settings’ and press ‘Backup’ and ‘Reset’. Once you have done that, press ‘Factory Data Reset’, then ‘Reset Phone’, then ‘Erase Everything’. Your phone will turn off and turn back on automatically.
