My HTC Evo Shift 4G (two years old?) keeps telling me I'm running out of internal storage. Right now there is only 51.59MB free in the internal storage, while my SD card has over 14G free.

I need some handholding and a whole lot of information. (pardon the babbling, the joy of having the complete works of Agatha Christie at the touch of a finger has turned me into a gibbering idiot) [more inside]
