Desire is out of memory

    When I go into look at a text message I get the following error:

    Unable to manage your messages because your storage is full. Please delete content from other applications to make more space.

    What is the best way to get around this problem? I presume I have installed all my apps so far onto the internal memory and it is now full. Any suggestions?

    Delete applications you don't use. Delete messages you don't need. Wait for Android 2.2 and you'll be able to move (some) applications to the SD card.

    I already have 2.2 froyo installed, but I couldn't figure out how to move the apps. I deleted some there that I don't use much and its freed it up

    Do you need to partition your SD card? For apps2sd+ you do, for apps2sd you don't.

    You can only move apps that support it. If you go to Settings -> Applications and select a specific application, there should be a button called "Move to SD" if the application supports it.

    There are ways to force applications onto the SD card, but they don't always work well so I don't recommend doing it.

    As said above, you can't do apps2sd without partitioning sdcard. Warning: this will wipe the lot (sdcard, nothing else). Download a program called ROM Manager, it has option to do this easily. Backup sdcard first tho!

    That's not true. Froyo (which the op is running) supports apps2sd without any repartitioning of the SD card.
