I had the same issue downloading the Rules of Golf (I know...). I got down to 1MB free at one point. In the end I rooted, installed Redux, did apps2sd+ and moved the davlik cache. I now have 100MB of internal memory free

Internal memory is the /data directory in root. You could have a look in there to see if there's a half downloaded apk (delete anything at your own risk though...).

That doesn't answer the papa j's question though.


To papa j: You cleared the cache for which apps?

Pictures are stored on the SD card, not internal storage. So that won't help.

If you go to Manage Applications, choose All, and then Menu > Sort by size you'll get an idea of which apps are using space. You can either remove apps or clear the cache to get some space back.

Note that clearing the cache for some apps may wipe out account data, settings, other information.
