Topic says it all pretty much.

Is this only available by flashing?

Yes, the other simplier way is using mount --bind command... Open the autorun.txt and you can see how it works...

/usr/ are read-only. So you cant write or modify any files there. Only way to edit files in /usr/ is by flashing.

Why do you want to delete them? Maybe creating empty file in mmc and binding it to file in /usr/ may work?

But you cant use that space. It is, as I said, read-only. This is why every MP stores skins, preloaded ringtones and wallpapers in /usr/.

When you store any file on your phone, it is stored in /ezxlocal/download/mystuff/. So if you want to make more free space on your phone, you should clean /ezxlocal/ directory.

Yup, deleting anything in usr wont give u more space... U should clean ezxlocal and ezx_user... They are placed in different device, roflash* (cramfs/squashfs) and mtdblock* (jffs)... Smiley
