Not enough storage even after deleting all photos

I was wondering how I can get my storage back even after deleting all my photos and videos. It still says I have all my 5GB of 5GB used which is incorrect. I just need a solution it’s driving me crazy.

Did you restart the phone after deletions? The only way to gain storage space is to delete photos , messages, apps, etc.. Be sure to save important photos and data to your computer or an external drive. Check these links...
