thanks to amigoloco for the tutorial.... :D :D :D :D :D :D



Hi guys, there is a simple and 100% effective way to remove the file "reserved" with size 20mb permanently from your C memory:
- Just activate rompacher open4all to see and edit system files and folders
- Then go to that folder C/private/102072c4 with filebrowser
- Remove the huge file called "reserved" for one last time
- Open the editing menu for "fotastate" file
- In File>set attributes> read only set to on
and that is...simply genius isn't it
you can now dial up *#0000# without having this file back anymore...

.it's reserved for the phone software update over the air without use of pc. If you don't use that feature remove it to get extra 20mb c phone memory.
