Hi guys,
I'm using a HD7 and recently i found out that some of my memory is going down from 12.28GB to 12.18GB after hours of use. Played games, surf the net, twitter, etc. Is there anyway to clear cache on WP7?
Thanks!
Deleting the history should clear the cache along with it, but I don't think there's a way to specifically delete cache only.

Also did the simple2ext(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917377)
i have clicked the following:
Application
Private apps
Application Data
Dalvik cache
(because still not enough space for just clicking Private apps..)
Setting:
Advanved mode
Mount as ext4
i can sure that i have enough free space for new apps,
but when i tried to install apps, it said there is not enough space on my phone.
What happen?
i rebooted my phone, and successfully installed one apps,
but when i tried to install another apps, it said the apps have not been installed.
and it didn't install the apps for me.
What happen??
can anyone help?
After you've rebooted, how much space is free (look at "info" in s2e)? Enough?
I've had a couple of instances where apps have downloaded but not installed. Normally changing between WiFi/mobile data and/or market/appbrain seems to fix it. Haven't really paid much attention, but I think I may have been on WiFi when it hasn't worked.
Anyone know of an app that can clear cookies as well as cache and history? Seems impossible as I can't find one and have tried all the popular cleaners. Thanks
Have you tried SD maid. I've used it for ever but not sure if it indeed cleans cookies or not. I do know it cleans alot though.
Guys, check out our open-source cache cleaner! We hate ads, so no ads here. Also has a native Holo look&feel, is small and minimalistic. Does exactly what it is supposed to, nothing more, nothing less, and therefore requires only 2 permissions, both strictly related to cache cleaning!
Targets:
Keep it simple, stupid
No ads
Holo look and feel
Fast and clean
Does not require root
That says it all.

I like it. Nice clean and simple UI. Two critiques:
- The app size seems a little big for what it does. It's about 2.2M. For comparison, "Cache Cleaner+" is a similar app, but it only takes about 500k.
- It does not clear all cached data for some apps. For example, the game "Big Win Basketball" downloads a crapload of cached files to the SD card, which on my phone is an emulated SD card in internal storage. Running this app does not clean those files. If I go into the system app manager and clear the cache there, it clears much more data. It would be nice if your app could use the same method so the cleaning would be more thorough.
Note: The second critique issue is not unique to your app. I've tried a bunch of other cache cleaners and they generally do the same thing as yours (i.e. they do not fully clean the cache for some apps). There are a couple others like Cache Cleaner NG that have some ability to clean cache on the SD card, but they don't have as nice of a UI as yours, and they still don't clean everything that the system app manager does. If you could make your app clean in the same way the system app manager does, that would really set it apart from all the other cache cleaners.
Thanks
Awesome ui! And functions super quick on the note 2. Thank you

Last week, my phone nearly ran out of storage, upon investigation, I found that the system size had grown to ~8.5 GB. I thought is wasn't all that bad, until I checked earlier that it had grown to ~9.2 GB. Is there any fix to this that doesn't involve a factory reset?
Are you rooted? Clear caches and remnants with SD Maid. Apps like Spotify e.g. and lots of other streaming services can build up huge amounts of cache in a short period of time.
You can also figure out what app is taking up all that space under settings-->apps select an app-->storage.

No, I'm not rooted. I've tried about 5 different cache cleaners, SD Maid included, and none do anything about the system size, just app cache.
Are you sure it's the system partition? Cache is stored on data. Guess you'll have to go by your apps one by one without root. Just open each app in settings and you'll see the size they are and you have the option to wipe it's cache and/or data. Start with data hungry apps like Facebook, play music etc.

Yes, screenshot attached
I'd suggest you install a free app manager from the play store. Doesn't have to be anything special as long as it reads app sizes. Once you know what apps are eating your free space you can delete their caches thru the system settings, or maybe even with the app manager. I don't think you need a factory reset.

Read the rest of the thread; I've tried that, 5 times. The only apps I can suspect would have to be system apps.
Looks like I'll have to reset after all
Alright, that was useless, this is a problem
I was wondering, how often do the people here at XDA clear their phone cache (both app cache in the Settings app and the cache partition in the recovery)?
Also, is there any benefit in clearing them frequently, say daily?

Cache partition is used to save downloaded important files to make the app load faster rather than regenerating the data everytime.
Clearing cache is often done to troublesome an app
Or when you feel that you don't need some stored data by an app
Doing it daily is not recommended thought
Monthly or even each 2 monthes
