Hey, concerning memory
Normal 370MB
XL memory 392MB
Big Mem 402MB
I know big mem 402 breaks the 720p video recording, because that is where it pulls the extra mem from...
where does the extra mem
in the xl 392 come from???
I tried looking but i don't remember where I've seen it

Can someone explain to me the situation with the internal storage on the Evo3D?
1. WHat is the actual total amount of internal storage in the Evo3D? I've heard
1GB, 4GB & 8GB....which is it?
2. If it is 4GB's or 8GB's, is there a way to access extra storage space?
Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
I think internal is 4gb 1.2ish for apps and like 1gb for rom... Idk.. i'd like to know this as well the real breakdown on internal storage...

1.2 available, the rest is owned by the system. I am SURE somebody will get custom MTD going to free up the unused portion of the 2.8 allocated that is actually vacant space. Especially once we have ROMs that are 75mb vs. 250-400mb
If we could get the rest for apps... Apps2sd is not really needed... Right now i have like 200 apps and am a little over 750mb... I think it will take a while to fill the rest but i wouldnt mind some peace of mind..

Thanks for the input guys. glad to see im not the only one wondering about this.

Formating.

I'm pretty sure you are missing space because it is necessary for an sd card that size to have in unallocated partition of about 1gb. You *might* be able to resize it. All sd cards don't allow the user to use up the amount of space they claim to have.

Its normal. Leave it how it is. My 16 gb came 14.xx gb do your good.

There is a difference between bits and bytes, when you buy something ie 16GB card you are getting 16000000000 bytes, that translates to 14.91gb. You will NEVER buy something that says x amount of GB and it show up as that amount usable
. So multiply any advertised amount by .923 and you get the usable amount

cool i thought something was up with me sdcard.. thanks for geting back
I'm too late for this but may help for future doubts. Every GB has 1024 MB and don't 1000 as we usual say, in that order, 1 MB has 1024 KB and 1 KB has 1024 B. After this short explanation we got: 16,000,000,000 B/1024(in order to get KB)= 15,625,000 KB/1024(to get MB)= 15,258 MB/1024(to get GB)= 14.90 GB you get in your card.
I was wondering why you haven't complained about the 8GB card that you got with your phone (or any other that you had before ) , lol
I have owned many 1gb android devices. However, the note is the only one that shows no more than 200mb of free storage no matter what I do. Where is all this memory going? High res screen? ICS?

I just upgraded to EVO LTE and is very nice its fast quick beautiful screen very smooth but can't figure out what's is using my ram I'm using 400 and have mabe 270 left to used but when I combine those it doesnt equal 1gb of ram
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
htc sense use ram also i don't know how much but it's alot. Don't worry about the ram cause the system will end whatever you have open and not using to make more ram.

I think the gpu probably uses some too which might be why it didn't add up to 1024mb

Possibly, but when I add my used and unused ram together I only come up with
660 which is way short or 1gb ram

I think I remember the EVO 3d with more ram. Like 720 something.
Well, there are plenty of hidden system settings. The number that you see in Task Manager or Settings is how much RAM that can be used for anything. The ram you do not see available is being used by things that are UNABLE to be removed from RAM because they are essential to the system running. That is the reason why we see nothing close to 1GB.same thing goes for computers, you can either see Installed Memory or you can see Usable Memory. Installed Memory on LTevo would be 1GB and Usable Memory on Stock would be around 670MB(IIRC) for me.

I noticed this also, coming from the EVO 3d (also with 1gb of ram) vs the 4gLTE. IIRC the 3d shows 804mb total vs 680mb. I figured it had to do with the 3d running gingerbread/sense 3.5 vs the 4gLTE running ICS/sense 4.0. My friend who has a galaxy nexus also with 1gb of ram, shows around the same amount of ram in the task manager.. either way I am absolutely amazed with this phone, not one issue or hiccup so far..
Hello
I just got the LG Optimus G AT&T, I thought the specification for phone memory is 16 GB, but it only has about 11 GB available to start with?
Is that correct? Just want to confirm.
Thank you,

That's all I ever had as well on internal.

Yup 11GB usable to the user. The OS is installed on the other 5 GBs.

WTF is in there? How can it possibly take up that much memory? That's more than a complete Windows 7 install including Office 2010 Pro Plus!
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
The system partition is 1.4GBs alone but there are a couple of other partitions that vary in size. A lot of the reserved space is unused.

Can it be reclaimed or do you know if there is a valid reason for the unused, reserved space? Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Not sure. I guess technically speaking Yes is could be reclaimed but I doubt it would happen. When CM 10 came out for the Captivate they kept tweaking the partition layout because at first they allowed too much space and then they changed it again to allow less space. The big problem is when they kept changing it, it would wipe the whole device including internal SD. We may see a new partition layout when CM 10.1 comes out but again I doubt it. If you download SD Maid and click Advanced on the first screen you can see a list of locations and the allotted storage for each (see screenshot).

Depends on what you install. Mine was like 9 gigs.
The storage device won't have 16GB of space anyway, not after it's formatted. You get 14.7GB. Then the stock ROM is about 1.2GB -- before installing it on the drive. The OS gets a partition of several gigabytes to reserve space and keep knuckleheads from stuffing the drive with crap.
The AT&T version comes with a blank 16GB SD card pre-installed, in addition to the 16GB of internal storage. If that's not enough space, you can buy a 64GB SD card separately.
Is that the biggest memory card you can use in OG, 64GB?
yep. havent tried a 128gb one (if they exist) but with 64gb it works fine and it's the max specified in specs.

o_o; Do people really need all that space..? I think the ~27-32 is fantastic. Hell, I was fine with 8 on my Inspire 4g. Now people are talking about 128gb? Ya'll are nuts..
Be glad you get that much. the AT&T One X only had 9.7 GB free out of the box. HTC/AT&T used up almost HALF of the storage.
