Re: My phone storage fills with unknown data!

Is your phone on the Black 8.0 version or is it on DP 8.1?

If your seeing that with "Storage Check" in 8.0 it may be inaccurate.
You can clear browser cache and delete temp files under storage check.

Also a "soft reset-phone reboot" may decrease high numbers under "other".

Hope this is clear and helpful.
Good luck...

Re: My phone storage fills with unknown data!

Best way is to update to 8.1 and then you can download files from the app store and see what is exactly taking that space up and delete it
