Memory
There are two types of memory into which you can save data or install applications: device memory and removable memory.
Removable memory
Removable memory is data storage that is not built into your device, such as a SIM card or a memory card. A SIM card stores
different information, such as information about the network operator and contacts. A memory card serves as external storage
media for software applications, pictures, music, contacts, text, or any other form of electronic data. High-capacity memory
cards are available.
Device memory
Memory that is built into your device is a dynamic memory pool shared by many applications. The amount of internal memory
available varies but cannot be increased past the maximum factory setting. Data stored on the device, such as software
applications, pictures, and music, consume on-device memory.
Monitor device memory
Select Menu > Options > Memory details.
You can see how much memory is currently in use, how much free memory remains, and how much memory is consumed by
each data type. For example, you can see how much memory your e-mail messages, text documents, or calendar appointments
consume.
To switch between device memory and memory card statistics, select Memory details > Phone mem. or Memory details > Memory
card.
Tip: To ensure that you have adequate memory, you should regularly delete or transfer data to a memory card or PC.
Memory card
Use only compatible miniSD cards with this device. Other memory cards, such as MultiMediaCards, reduced-size MultiMediaCards
or full-size SD cards, do not fit in the memory card slot and are not compatible with this device. Using an incompatible memory
card may damage the memory card as well as the device, and data stored on the incompatible card may be corrupted.
Your Nokia device only supports the FAT16 and FAT32 file systems for memory cards. If you use a memory card from another
device or if you want to ensure compatibility of the memory card with your Nokia device, you may need to format the memory
card with your Nokia device. However, all data in the memory card is permanently deleted if you format the memory card.
It is recommended to back up device memory regularly to the memory card. The information can be restored to your device
later. To back up information from device memory to a memory card, select Menu > Tools > Memory card > Options > Backup
phone mem. To restore information from the memory card to the device memory, select Menu > Tools > Memory card >
Options > Restore from card.
To remove the memory card, press the power key and select Remove mem. card.
Do not remove the memory card when the card is being accessed. Removing the card in the middle of an operation may damage
the memory card as well as the device, and data stored on the card may be corrupted.
If you cannot use a memory card in your device, you may have the wrong type of memory card, the card may not be formatted
for your device, or the card has a corrupted file system.
Tip: You can install and remove a memory card without removing the battery or powering off the device.
MiniSD
This device uses a mini Secure Digital (SD) card.
Check the compatibility of a miniSD with its manufacturer or provider. Use only compatible miniSD cards with this
device. Other memory cards, such as MultiMediaCards (MMC) or full-size SD cards, do not fit in the miniSD card slot and
are not compatible with this device. Using an incompatible memory card may damage the memory card as well as the device,
and data stored on the incompatible card may be corrupted. Keep all memory cards out of the reach of small children.
Use a memory card
Select Menu > Tools > Memory card > Options, and from the following:
• Remove mem. card — Eject the memory card safely.
• Backup phone mem. — Back up important information, such as your calendar entries or contacts, to your memory card.
• Restore from card — Restore the backup from the memory card to your device.
