Internal storage is system reserved partition for system files only. Like Windows folder on your computer. The apps and your personal data are stored on the internal sd card that is 11.5 Gigs.
Its the same on all GS2s. Mine is also 1.97/98.

It's totally normal. The others user comment are right. Dont worry and enjoy your phone!

Well that's a relief! Sorry for the noobish worry! I had mem issues a few days ago a though that it had affected the mem internally! But ok! Thanks! And let the flashing.continue!

[Q] Easier way for Data2Ext?

Is there an easier way to active data2ext that I just haven't figured out yet?
Everytime I try a new rom I have to flash data2ext and run the full list of commands in terminal emulator...is there something I'm missing that makes the process a whole lot quicker?
yea, use link2sd
Is that the same as data2ext? I can get my 1 gig of internal memory?

Yesjust backup your whole SD card to your computer and format your sdcard, next in recovery go to advanced/partition SD card and pick what size you want, then download and open link2sd and pick ext 3, reboot your phone and reload your SD card from your computer to your phone, and you will be able to link all of your user apps to your sdcard, giving you virtually unlimited space.

Personally, I like data2ext far better than link2sd

data2ext automatically installs everything to sd. link2sd you can customize which programs to send to sd.
havntt tried data2ext, but link2sd works for me, they added a multiselect option recently and you just move all your apps in one go, i have maybe 40 apps and 230mb on my ext, and 60/200mb or so on my internal

Move apps to SD?

How did we lose the ability to install apps to storage card? I've run out of space and need to free up

It seemsvyou cannot do that. Its the same on Asus transformer. Except you do some mod to trick the system to understand that ext sd is int-sd.

Mind blown, why lol it's like a couple steps backward,l

I have read on Asus Transformer forum that it's the way Android is. Your int-memory will be seen as sdcard,and ext-sd is just external memory for movies and music or other stuffs. Hopefully, someone can do the mod to trick the system like the guy on Trnasformer forum.

Can someone tell me why anyone would want to move apps to SD with a galaxy s3?

To free up internal memory for other uses, like the OP states.

Not possible yet...
Don't try any of the apps2SD apps. Still not possible to designate our Galaxy S3 extSdCard as "SDcard". We'll have to wait for devs to figure out a work-around. Why Samsung chose to label internal memory as SDcard is beyond me and it stifles our choices. But then they also change the TRRS pin-out for the headphones/headset so it doesn't work like every other phone out there...

Running out of space?

Hi all.
First I have a I9305 but since this isn't device specific I didn't think it would matter where I put it.
Recently I been getting things saying "memory full" or thing along that line. I went into storage and, yep it was full. I had to remove all my pictures just to take a screen shot. My question is how can I free it all up? Ive moved my pictures to my SD card and I can't seem to find anything else. Can someone please help? My SD card has 4GB left out of 16gb.

did you check the "manage apps" stats? some apps eating up space? e.g. games?

I went into application manager if that's what you mean? It doesn't tell me anything. Only angry birds using 53mb is the biggest.

You can also tap the Miscellaneous files tab to see what takes up so much storage, and delete from there if you like.
Oh goody thanks for that

The rest of it is reserved for system use. Not sure what there is to be confused about here.

It CLEARLY says on the LG website in the Specifications area for internal memory that out of the 32 GB storage that only 24 GB is for user memory.
Total Internal Memory 32GB (Up to 24 GB for User Memory)

The good old .thumbnail issue, doesn't free up space (more than 5gb)

Kinda old topic but I just noticed that I had more than 5.5gb occupied by the folder .thumbnails in DCIM..
After deletion and making a file with the same name the file doesn't re-create but the space doesn't empty up either.
Check this image showing 500mb free while the actual size occupied by the files is 5.78/12gb (disregarding the 4gb occupied by the system since it's a 16gb internal storage)

The phone is note 3 neo n750 running on lollipop (Feb 2019)
Anyway to solve this??
On this image you are showing you total internal storage.
I can't see any thumbnail folder on that picture.
Actually it nothing in there except that your internal storage has 12gb and used 5gb

That's because I deleted it.. It doesn't exist no more.
That's what I said in my OP O.O
Even after deleting it, the 5 gb are still occupied, check the picture again, inside the "orange box" it says "internal memory" and "494mb/12gb"
regards!
