can the 3d hold for roms? cause i downloaded 2 stock roms and there both nearly 400mb and i remember on the og evo that was a ton! you had to partition to use a rom like that.
So how much can the 3vo take exactly?
I believe it has 4GB RAM and 1GB ROM
Not quite.
Titanium backup tells me there's 825 MB available for system ROM. I'm assuming that's the space available for the (Duh) ROM.
Could be wrong though.

4GB Nand memory. We have 1GB allocated for our use.
The other 3GB is allocated for system resources and other things.
Like my help? Thank me

Could anyone with a Rezound/Vigor post the app storage space? My Desire only had 120mb out of the box and I would like to know what the Rezound has.
Well, the EVO 3D has 4GB onboad storage which works out to 3GB used by the system and 1GB left for apps...I'd expect the Rezound to be about 3GB system as well, which means the other 13GB will be for apps/music/pics/etc...
Does anyone know how the file system is setup? I wonder if all of the device storage gets wiped during a hard reset (as this would make ROM flashing a PITA, everything would still have to stay on the SD)?

I think he means in the app partition. We won't find out until the phone is out.
Yes. Everything will be wiped.
The reason I ask is the Desire had such horrible space which caused issues when trying to port newer sense versions. But if /system is atleast 3 gb then that means we have plenty of space for future sense versions to be ported. as long as /data is atleast 1-2gb that is great. The desire had 120mb out of the box and with cyanogen and repartioning the nand I could get up to about 320mb.
Hello anybody who can help me and other people understanding what we see in applications which show memory info.
I want to understand why "meminfo" shows total RAM 335Mb and Internal phone storage: 420Mb (it is on my phone).
Official info from http://developer.sonyericsson.com/wportal/devworld/phones/phone-overview/xperia-mini-pro?cc=gb&lc=en says it should be the next:
- Internal phone storage: up to 320 MB
- RAM: 512MB !!!
One of my thoughts is that the part of memory is used by video-card
Please explain me why it happens
Some is dedicated to the graphic and some more is reserved from the system. The total is 512, don't worry.

Think of the Android Operating System as a Virtual Machine on your phone. It needs some RAM in order to work.

Can you modify the values besides a VM usage ram ?
No. What you need in order to have more "system memory" which actually is part of the RAM itself is swap. Swap creates a partition on your sd card which then is used by the system to store temporary data. The thing is that its a double edged knife. NAND is 100 times faster than your typical SD card, so loading apps and/or part of the system on your swap partition might end up in a slower overall phone. But we wont have such a problem with our devices, because the system itself doesnt take all that much storage itself.
The only device so far that i know, which had a problem with storage was the Desire Z i own, when you wanted to flash a custom sense 3.0 rom. Then it needed different partitioning in order for the Sense 3.0 to fit into the device.(the device isnt a sense 3.0 device by default).
If you have many apps that you cant seem to fit in the 320mb of free memory, i recommend you install an app2sd application.
I am not clear on how the space "partitioned" by Safestrap is used. Is the 1GB, 2GB or 3GB the space that is reserved for the "ROM"? Or does this effectively turn the phone into a device with only 1,2,3GB of internal memory (for ROM and app data) as far as that rom slot is concerned?

The 1, 2, 3 gig partition is your data partition, so yes it effectively makes your phone which originally came with something like ~8gigs available after all of samsungs crap, a 1 - 3 gig internal memory partition. Unfortunately, that's the name of the game until we can get a way around the loader and open the entire phone up.
I've been using Eclipse 1.6 and it's been splendid with a 3gig partition. All my apps are loaded and have about a gig left over.
I have a Kenzo, 16GB + 2GB RAM variant.
While using ES File Explorer, it showed that I have a total of 10.26 GB internal memory, so where did the remaining 5-6 GB went ?
Maybe this is a noob question but I am worried about this

It's occupied by MIUI 8 operating system.. So the user available space is only 10.26gb.

I have installed CM14.1 + Radon 3.0.1 with clean flash
Will this issue still persist ?
You won't see a full 16GB for your use, if that's what you're thinking. Some has to be for the OS. I think with CM14, you end up with a maybe 11-12GB free, but your OS and other apps have to take up some space.
Simple solution, buy a SD card and use it as a internal storage, but be aware that the (un)official CM 14.1 by TheStrix has currently a bug with this feature
Hi there,
I'm sticking with the oos rom...works ok no issues and no big needs for ultra customization.
but.
16Gb are not nough and since I dont' want to sacrifice apps, I'm looking for the rom that need less space on the internal memory...to free some space once installed...
are all the rom made equal?
Tnx guys!

It doesn't really make a difference. Get a micro SD card and use it to expand your storage.
I know I can use an SD and I do use an SD but actually on the internal memory there are 7gb of apps 3,26gb of other and less than 1gb of images, video audio and cache data.
the apps installed are not apps that I can move on the sd.

Well, what you bought is what you got.
Opx has only 16Gb int. memory which only left available less than 12Gb.
Doesn't matter if you flash N custom ROMs, it only has slightly different size (without inbuilt Gapps package). If you're so curious then go for stock AOSP/Pure Nexus ROMs which only has stock/less features.
Weird to me, what kind of apps/games installed on yours so your lack of memory? (seemed so).
I've 70 apps installed with only 1 game, and i still have plenty of memory left.
*If you're on rooted device then just delete any unwanted system apps/services using ES file explorer or kinda. Although that only free small amount of sizes in system memory.
So the trick is: Do not install way too many apps/games that eats memory a lot.

Get one of the nougat ROMs(I highly recommend Paranoid Android), format your SD card as internal storage and you won't have to worry about filling your internal storage up.

Hi Pune, did you try this approach? have you hever noticed any problem( slow down glitch anything) using apps from sd?
I'm really happy with my onyx, the only downside is the free memory....

You can root your OOS > remove all the bloat ( saves approx. 400MB) unroot ( if your not into having your device rooted) and perhaps move those image/video files to exSD.
Flashing a custom rom will probably save you 500 MB including gapps.
The smallest ROM right now would be AOSP-CAF
If you ask smallest rom in size it would be Slimrom, but it doesn't matter, since rom along with all system apps installed on system partition, system partition taking space from internal storage, IINM onyx has fixed 2 gb system partition built in...
Your only option is root your device, bought a micro sdcard and use apps called app2sd, link2sd or foldermount or some apps similar like that.

No I've not had any noticeable performance slow downs when using the SD card. However, do find a reliable ROM that does not have bugs when doing so. For that I'd recommend PureNexus despite the fact that it hasn't been updated for a while. It has been the stablest ROM I've seen so far with Onyx.
The size of the ROM doesn't matter. The device has a separate partition for it anyway. You could have a 600mb ROM and it would be no more intrusive than a ROM that's 300mb.
Another thing, using a ROM with more features does not mean you will suffer from a performance deficit. Enabling some of these features could however have an impact on battery life.
If the features themselves do have a performance impact then I think the ROM team needs to question why they implemented it in the first place.
At the end of the day, they all use the same partition so there's no use in worrying about it

Use Modded OOS, in that way you have both the original OOS with all the extra things removed by default and you would've 6-7 GB free space available on your internal memory. I am also using it. Give it a try
you should move to a custom ROM. They are very good and will save you many GBs of storage and RAM
