How to get rid of 'other' data on iPhone 4?
I have an originally 8gig iPhone 4 with 6.1.3 software. I checked my data, and it says I've got 4.17 gigabytes worth of 'other'. I've googled it, and all of the answers are to delete all of my music. I'd reset the phone a few days ago, so I don't have any. I've had this problem twice, causing me to restore it both times. Is there anyway to get rid of the 'other'?
"Other" is what your system files are. You can't delete them.
"Other" is Androoid's equivalent to "Miscellaneous files" and they store system files which can't be deleted.

- I'm trying to get rid of Other on iPhone 5? I know this is a tired question because no one can figure out how to truly remove the (5GB in my case) excess of "other" on the iPhone because it apparently might be due to corrupted files. I've tried everything I can find online to no avail. I really don't want to resolve to starting a new phone because I need my current photos, contacts and messages. Any suggestions?
- How to get rid of the other category in my iPhone's usage The "other" section is currently taking up 7.5GB of my iPhone's capacity (so ridiculous)! I've tried everything: deleting contacts, deleting conversations, deleting apps, and even RESTORING MY IPHONE. But it still is taking up basically half of my usage! Please someone tell me how I can get rid of, or at least drastically reduce, the "other" section.
- How to get rid of other space on iPhone? I've had my iPhone 4s for about half a year. I have this ungodly amount of that dreaded "other" space. Its taking up 8.3 GB of my phone and I have no idea how to get rid of it. Restoring does not help, I'm wondering if there's a way to hack into it and manually remove it or something. I'm not very good with technology however.
