The memory actually doesnt get freed up each time u do a master reset . I think the phone initially reports the free memory available wrongly. I did a master reset a while back and ended up with 2222 kb free memory ( which in itself is impossible considering the max memory available is only 2 mb) when i uploaded a small 40kb file the memory decreased to 1980 kb after which the memory was reported correctly for further uploads.

That's easy enough to explain, the reason the phone pics take up so much space is that they are pre-decompressed to a different format so the phone doesn't have to do it on the fly. When you master reset the phone, the pre-loaded pics aren't decompressed yet so they still take up their natural sizes. However, as soon as you go into the "My Pictures" folder they become decompressed, and so your space appears to diminish, but in reality it doesn't.

I need to do it again myself tonight as I've had my phone's software upgraded today (albeit to R1L rather than the R6B I was hoping for, bastards) so if I can get it to work, I'll let you know. Just SEEING the O2 screensaver on my phone and knowing it takes up 67k is getting to me. I think it's unfair that the operators can sap your free memory to such an extent with their unwanted customisations, you should at least be able to delete what you don't want.

Finally, I found it... http://babelfish.altavista.co[....]vfd2brandinglegal.htm&lp=de_en

Hopefully it works, I'm about to do it myself. The translation from German is not incredible, but you get a good enough idea to carry it out.

Where it says that red X's will appear in place of the hourglass isn't true on R1L... you just have to move past that phase where you go into My Pictures and go straight to adding the phonebook contact, I managed to delete the O2 screensaver and all the other rubbish that way
