Im really liking this HTC, im getting used to it.
I have a question, is this phone using the 4GB internal memory when browsing the net? I was on Facebook for 5 min and I got an "out of memory" error, kinda wierd when a phone has 4GB internal memory.
But then I noticed that theres 2 memory types, internal and phone memory...?
Why would they do this? Why not just use 4GB all together. Its kinda kinda just having a 4GB memory card.
Nokia and SE dont do this on their 4/8GB phones....
Otherwise its quite good, wish I could set a personal ringtone for the alarm and remove some options from the Today screen.

I imagine that WM treats the 4GB exactly like a storage card on any other device - it's a separate drive effectively.
Programme memory, which software actually runs in, is a different thing altogether. It's fast RAM, like on your PC, not flash-based memory like a storage card or that 4GB in the Diamond.
If you go to Start -> Settings -> System (tab) -> Memory, you'll see storage memory on the left hand side, and program memory on the right hand (at least that's how it is on my Tytn II). Whether that storage figure includes the 4GB I don't know, but either way it's the program memory you apparently ran short on.

I agree you shouldn't have run out of memory in any case, the program memory is ample either way. Most likely you just found a bug in either Opera or Touch Flo 3D, both of which are fairly memory intensive.
In nine months of using my Tytn 2, whcih has less resources available, I've never had a memory error.

mine is on a truck to be delivered today so I'll be having a play tonight
if its like the TyTN II there is no GPS software in the device so until you install something that uses the GPS there's not really much you can do.

Masseur - I know my mates Orange handset has GPS software on it. He's out at a different office today otherwise I'd have a quick look and tell you what it is.

I'll check that myself when I get home as mine is coming from Orange, but there was no mention on the web site of the inclusion of tomtom or similar
great if there is!

I've sent him a text asking but it will probably take him half an hour to figure out how to type a reply.

It seems that it's Google Maps no proper directional GPS such as TomTom.
