Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 SPECS INCLUDE MicroSD, up to 32 GB ....AND
Internal 158Mb, 278 MB RAM

There is essentially 2 types of memory put simply the physical memory as in a USB stick hard drive [HDD] phone memory ........ eg iPhone5 16Gb / 32Gb /64Gb [YOUR PHONE 158Mb}

The 'memory' your phone is stating you are short of is R.A.M memory not PHYSICAL MEMORY, the Samsung Galaxy Ace has 278MB

Imagine you have a physical art collection and music collection, comic collection DVD collection ............ so a collector !)

RAM WOULD BE A VIEWING ROOM, you can only bring so much physical stuff into the room before you run out of space.... RAM
A jpeg / photo is physically stored on say a memory card, to view, loaded into..... RAM (Legal were all over that statement)

You have too many applications open so need to close down some of these to free up RAM.
****Also delete browsing history and cache as these utilise RAM even though you have logged out of the Internet****

As I am Android (self made man!) copyright means that apps games are downloaded to the phone FIRST [you CANNOT download to a memory card directly]

If it can be moved the option to move is highlighted, apps /game on the phone at the time of ORIGINAL purchase CANNOT be moved
