I can't backup my iPhone 5s because I have no storage left?

Ok I used to have over 3,000 pictures, now I have about 1,000. I deleted texts, and a ton of apps, and it still says I have no storage. In settings under my iPhone, it says next backup size 9.8GB. My camera roll is taking up 8.4GB which haven't changed since I deleted over half my pictures. I have no idea how to fix it.

The only way to fix it is to connect it to your PC or MAC and transfer all the photos into iTunes (that's where all of your backup info goes with iPhone). It should automatically detect your iPhone and open iTunes and perform the backup. And it literally takes about 2 minutes to finish.

Or are you saying you have no storage left in iCloud? This is also an easy fix. Just connect your iPhone to your PC/MAC and manually copy and paste all the pictures into a folder on your computer.

So use windows explorer to copy / paste all photos to the computer. Thats ridiculous keeping all those on the phone as if you are looking at them daily.
