Huge 'Other' storage on my iphone?
I have an Iphone 5 16gb jailbroken and i went to download an app today and it told me insufficient storage, so i went into settings>general>usage to find out what is taking up all my space and the largest file I had was music (2.8gb). So I was pretty confused and so I plugged my phone into itunes and and there I discovered the problem, 7.51gb of 'other'. So after doing some research and finding out that it is basically just temp files and such I went through my phone and deleted all messages and music off my iphone but that did nothing to the size of 'other' So I'm perplexed as to what I should do, I have already run icleaner pro which only removed about 400mb and none of my current apps have more than 30mb in documents and data so I was wondering if anybody had any solutions to this stupid problem. And please do not tell me to restore my phone, that is not a solution to the problem, your just erasing your phone.
The "other" storage are all your jailbroken apps and data including all files associated with jailbreaking your iphone. The only way to reduce it is to remove some of your jailbreak tweaks or apps.

- Will there be a huge difference between the Iphone 4s and Iphone 5? I'm just wondering what you guys think… Because i don't think there will be a massive one. I currently have an iphone 4s and think well what else can they really do apart from make the screen wider and overall a thinner model. It's already quick enough and the camera is awesome. Also the same ios is going to be available for the iphone 4s and 5 so they'll just the same almost! I know they may have some new feature or two but really have they reached the max yet?
- What to do about my iphone storage saying I'm using up way more photo storage than I actually am? My storage says I have 132 photos that's using up most of my storage; almost 3 GB. I have only 52 photos and 15 videos in my phone. It seems like it may be using storage from pictures I deleted, but apparently they're still using space? ? Has this happened to anyone else. I've taken my phone to an apple store, and I didn't get any answers.
- On the I cloud on the Iphone what does total storage and available storage mean? Basically it says total storage 5gb and availible storage 5 gb. Does that mean there's already 5 gb of files on the Icloud?
- IPhone storage full but iCloud storage not? I'm in the Navy and I'm going on deployment soon so, I'm racking up on stuff like movies and music so I won't be bored during deployment… I'm 3 seasons in on downloading stuff on Netflix and it says my storage is full… I deleted a lot of useless apps and music already and I downloaded a few more then it happened again… I see my iCloud storage is very empty but my phone storage is too full… How can I fix this.
