My Steak comes along with 1.6G phone memory but now my phone memory has only 159M left behind.
I have moved all the apps that are movable to the SD card and clean up the cache all the time.
I wonder if there is a way to see what are saved to the phone memory?
Many thanks
Take a look at https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.diskusage - I think it does exactly what you're looking for
You're not confusing internal SD memory with RAM are you because 1.5 gigs worth of apps is like unworldy unless what you have is a bunch of games on there. I have almost 200 apps on my Streak and they don't take up but 900 MB

Wallaby has a 32 mb built in memory. How can this be increased. If so How MUCH & How?
Note i have installed a 128 mb SD card and have installed most of the softwares on it but my system shows low memory while the SD card is nearly 50% empty.
I have tried to use the slider in the settings to increase the momory but it slides back and is not releasing more memory for the system.
kindly advise how to increase the momory

There is a company that adds physical ram to the phone but now that prices for the xda 1 are so low I would not consider that as a realistic option. You could maybe buy an xda 1 with 64 megs of memory and a broken screen and transplant the mother board to your phone.
I think he might not know that he might free up some memmory on his devices rom. If I were you sir, I would sync my data (not backup), hard reset, reinstall everything into where I wanted it, and resync. If you have experience with hot air rework, or have a friend, you might aquire the chips and do it yourseld. THen again, if you didn't know you could add memmory to a wallaby, then you probably shouldn't do that. Be careful and good luck!
PS I'm not responsable if you junk your device, I am only giving suggestions of what could be done, not telling you it should be done!
Even by physically adding the memory chips you can get only 64meg, anything above that has to be software driven paged memory I think, bit like using a fast sd card.
I know that 128+ mb requires a driver.... I wonder if you could get in 96 somehow???? anyone done that?
I think the hardware limits direct memory access above 64.
can the chips be stacked? I thought I had read that somewhere; cut a certain pin(s) and solder/joint a second chip ontop of the origionals?????
are the user accessable ram and rom on the same chip or are they seperate chips?
could the rom size be increased? (never looked into it)
Where would one acquire the chips?
I've been prowling websites, SE's included and I find contradictions on the amount of memory - internally and the amount of the internal storage (not microSD) in the X10.
Most sites seem to suggest that there is 1GB of RAM memory. The OS/Firmware takes up 384-400mb ROM.
There are sellers who say that the X10 has 8 or 16GB of internal storage. There are others that say it's only 2GB. I think that a lot of sites are confusing the microSD with internal storage. Rogers site seems to suggest 8GB internal storage and ATT says 2GB.
The Samsung Galaxy S seems to come with 16GB storage and a 8GB card at ATT.
The X10 they are selling seems to be with 2GB storage and 2GB sd card. (SonyStyle is selling the X10 with a 8GB card incl.)
Could someone clarify this? Is it just confusion with the SD card or did ATT order up the X10 with less internal storage than the rest of the world, guarantee that 'geeks' wouldn't be as interested....
From what I've seen they're all the exact same hardware wise, and the internal memory is the same. Was supposedly 1gb internal memory in the phone, but not sure if it's actually true, or if 1.6 limits available system ram.
The x10 from Rogers in Canada comes with 16GB card installed. (They did a few months ago anyway)
1GB ROM (internal mem)
384MB RAM (used when phone is on for programs and tasks)
"practically" unlimited Storage (mem card)

I don't understand the 'practically unlimited' part. Isn't one of the reasons that people want Eclair/Froyo the ability to store apps on the memory card rather than the internal memory? And the better message auto-management?

"practically" unlimited storage was regarding size of memory card you can use in your device, which as of now can be max. 32 GB.
That´s 3rd point..first is internal memory (ROM), second is operating memory (RAM) and finally third is external memory (MicroSD card)
Every place I have read and seen said 4gb rom 1gb ram. However every place I check on the phone says 1.* rom. What happened to the other 3? They don't show up anywhere what am I missing?
I thought it was 1gb ROM and 4gb internal memory.... Even tho the 4gb is eaten up regardless

1 gig of ram and 1 gig of usable internal memory. As far as actual ROM space, I doubt we'll know prior to getting S off.
So I noticed it says this phone has 16gb of memory, but when I look at the phone storage it says 9.75gb total and internal store 2gb. Is this another memory thing like the desire z / g2 having 4gb of memory but only 1.5gb user accessible?
Same here.
yep it is blocked off to OS and stuff
mine say the same. not sure how they keep getting away with this.
Theoretically it's 16... Then they partition for the OS and read only files. All storage devices are the same way.
They could have advertised 10 gb and be a little more realistic
I feel 3 gigs of system storage is too ! I've never used even a gig with tons of apps installed. Is there anyway I could use say about gig of my system storage as my internal? I have a feeling it involves repartioning but I'm not sure how to go about it.
