Hey guys.
Yet again, I need your help. I've spent the past hour googling this issue, but I cannot seem to find an answer. So I tried installing this dictionary-thesaurus app on my phone. About half way through the program's installer it tells me my phone has no more room left. It never asked me for a location to install it blink.gif ... so anyway, now my "Device Storage" is at 100% with 8.18MB. How in the world do I clear this ? I have absolutely no text messages, IE cache or anything. I've been trying to find the temp files with the file explorer, but the folder is empty.
Btw how do I do a hard reset ? All the guides say "hold blue key and power for a few seconds". But that just shuts off my phone. And if it's off, it asks me if I want to do a hard reset.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I was just about to point you to these instructions - MoDaCo Article on Hard Reset - but you seem to have answered your own question. unsure.gif

Most people have trouble with getting the option without actually booting the phone as the timing is tricky.

Isn't this what you want to do ?

I am such a dumbass ! Sorry, I was posting at 3:30 am. What I meant instead of "hard reset" was "soft reset" ...
Later edit: Well never mind that, apparently a soft reset only power-cycles the phone. I manually went through each and every single folder and the remains of this dreaded dictionary were nowhere to be found.
Any ideas ? sad.gif

With a failed install use a file manager on the phone, go to IPSM/Windows/AppMgt/Install, and delete the contents.

Note this may not be visible using a pc to browse the phone.
