Help!

Whenever I load a Java game (e.g. super real tennis), then quit and restart my phone (K750i), I lose 1kb of free memory.

Now this may seem small, but it does it EVERY time... I've currently lost around 20K seeing if the problem will stop. When you consider some Java games are 20-40K, this is a significant loss! So far, the memory has been unrecoverable

Both the file manager's memory status (games folder), and the individual java files remain the SAME size.

Can anyone please* try this on their K750 (maybe a couple times?)?

Make a note of the free phone memory. Then load and exit 'Super Real Tennis', then switch the phone off and on. Has the memory gone down 1?

* I will promise to love you forever more!

I tried it with Super Real Tennis with 29565 left on the phone, when I started it up again I had 29568. Then I tested it with a game saved on the stick with no chance in memory, plus the phone memory had reverted back to it's original value.

Ok, thanks guys!

I spent a long time just switching phone on and off. Good thing I don't have a life! Memory eventually went back up, to more than I remember having..? then back down again, then back up again. So I guess something is a bit strange... but seems like it sorts itself out after all.

I'll sleep easier tonight! And tomorrow I'm off to the GP to sort out my Anxiety Disorder.
