In a blog post on the Windows Phone blog, Micheal Stroh reports about what is in for us in GDR2 update that is currently being deployed world wide. I got the update on my HTC 8X a few weeks ago. The update does contain a fix for the "other" storage issue. Windows Phone OS will delete unnecessary files when space is low on the phone. There is more to write about, but since I'm running late, just click the link below to read the blog post.

While the number of HTC exclusive apps for Windows Phone pales in comparison to what
Nokia has to offer, it is nevertheless a pleasure to see that the Taiwanese company still has the time to update what I call its flagship app for Windows Phone. The HTC app - that's it's name - is an all-in-one app that gives users access to financial, meteorological and political news. It's a very well designed app that also brings the HTC famous clock tile to the start screen. This is a an app that HTC fans placed prominently on their Windows Phones and that can be seen in every HTC marketing material. The update can be downloaded in the Windows Phone Store. Unfortunately, no change log accompanies the update.
HTC "Make More Space" is an HTC Windows Phone 8 exclusive device designed to help you manage storage on the HTC 8X and 8S. "Make More Space" simply displays the storage as utilized by your music, videos, pictures. Tap on any of them and you're taken to hub so you can manage your storage by deleting unnecessary files.
HTC has updated the app to version 1.5 with one feature that "inform user to remove contents or uninstall app when available phone storage space is low". The update is of course free to download in the Windows Phone Store.
