Pfffff...... Although this thread started a month ago, it seems that there is still no solution...
I just got my phone, with a rather old firmware (as it seems) R1B008.
So i do not dare a master reset.
This post is just to get some life back into this problem, because there is still solution...
And if there is PLEASE let me know...
Thanks.

I mailed them before Christmas about the problem, their original reply was...
"Regarding your enquiry concerning the T300 handset, I would like to advise you if you where to perform a master reset (code 0000) on your handset then this will delete all of the stored pictures, games and templates on your handset. I hope this helps with your enquiry."
When I informed them that this didn't actually work as intended their reply was...
"Regarding your enquiry concerning your T300 handset, we suggest that you contact our Customer Care Centre on 08705 237 237 and one of our advisors will assist you with your handset problems."
I've mailed them back again to tell them that I don't want to speak to a Customer Care Advisor (since they will not know anything) and asked that they mail me back with a solution from a technical person... as yet they haven't replied!

after master reset,
if you look pictures by selecting "themes" or "my sounds" then
"option" key , "memory status" and "my pictures"
it does not load the pictures to the dinamic memory.

This has sort of been discussed in another thread. But Here's my experience.
My phone is a t68i but it should be somewhat similar.
When I do a master reset. then.. before looking at any images, check memory status, it shows 960KB free memory.
Some of this memory dissapears when I look at images.
I figured the phone must be loading them from the firmware when you look at them the first time.
So what I did(this is the part which has been discussed) was I filled the memory. Then went to the pictures folder. The phone only says memory full.. delete something.
I deleted all the images and voila. I now have 955KB of memory which can be used for what I want. This should be the same for the t300 too..
Oh and one more memory bug. This may be different on the t300...
I discovered this while trying to fill my memory. I sent myself an mms with a gif animation in it(I don't think the filetype matters). Now images in mms messages don't appear in the my pictures folder until you save them. So I thought If I saved the picture many times it would eventually fill the memory. Now here's the issue. I was saving the image over and over again for a while and started to wonder how big the memory was... So I checked the memory status... First up came the free memory. It hadn't diminished at all!!!
the the really weird part. My pictures:2045 KB!!!!
Now. since the memory is about 1000KB in size altogether this seems kinda weird...
Seems the t68 has alotta memory bugs. The only thing which seems right is the part about how much memory you have available.
If you don't believe me you can try it yourselves.
just save a file from an mms message multiple times.
You could always impress your mates about it
"Look mate!! I have a Total of 5 gigabytes of memory on my phone. only 500Kb free right now though..."
Oh. And if anybody wants to free up the memory like I did a great way to fill your memory if you don't have the ability to connect your phone to the computer in any way. Use the voicerecorder.
It fills your memory in about 20-25 mins.

- we can't delete preinstalled stuff with r1d software on t300
- the phone don't save the same thing twice, but there's a bug in the estimation of size folders

Yup, the phone doesen't make 2 copies when you use the same pic in a mms and 'mypictures', it just use the same pic in different folders.
So if you delete a pic in 'mypictures' that you also have in a mms it won't free any memory cuz it's used in the mms aswell.
This is ofcourse not a bug but a smart way of saving memory.
Think about it, if you had a big screensaver in incoming mms, unsent-, sent-, templates and my pictures you would waist 5 times the kb's that's needed and quickly run out of memory...
