How to get rid of Other space on iPhone 4?
I have an iPhone 4 with the new iOS 6.0.1 update. Other has taken up a lot of space for a while. Recently it just got to 4GB and I learned from research that the factory setting restore will fix this problem. I backed up all my data i wanted to keep (Photos, Contacts and Notes) And restored it completely. After the restore, i added all my backed up data back, but Other still took up a lot of space, in fact, even more than before, 4.9GB. Is there anything else i can do to get rid of this "Other?" I only have 0.88 Of a GB left. Please help.
Added (1). I have NO Music or Videos on my phone.
Offload videos/pics/music to the PC, yo udon't need all of that on your phone all the time. Especially vids.
Other is the ios system, without it you can't use the iphone at all.
The "The other space" is the Operating "iOS" System of the iPhone 4, if you get rid of it, you won't even have a iPhone. It doesn't even make sense that they are saying its a 16gb if it a 10gb or more because of the iOS on it
You can't get rid of it, it's the iOS system.

- 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.
