Ok, I was stupid... My phone repeatedly warned me that I was low on
memory and I not only ignored the warnings, I installed a game that
seems to slowly grow its memory usage.

Anyway, my poor phone, a stock Nexus One, finally gave up today. It
won't reboot.  When it tries it repeatedly crashes with an
OutOfMemoryError in the ActivityManagerService and other critical
locations.

So, I'd like to clear out some memory.

But...
- I can't boot the phone to get the full GUI
- adb uninstall <app> (for any app) fails with "Error: Could not
access the Package Manager.  Is the system running?"

adb logcat and adb shell are working, so I can see what the phone is
doing and I should be able to delete extraneous rw files.

I don't currently have root.
I'd really like not to factory reset the phone or lose my current
configuration.

What's the best way to free up enough space to get the phone to boot?

Thanks, and feeling foolish,
David
