Hi all!
I am a new HAM2 L03 owner, I purchased the phone used on eBay, but I've seen something curious, the internal memory is displaying as it was 8 gb, but this phone is supposed to have 16 gb internal memory, can you guys help me with this issue?
I'm attaching a screen shot of the internal memory.
There was an 8Gb model sold at WalMart for a short period of time. This is probably one of those. I can tell you it cannot be updated to Lollipop, yet. Check your eBay auction and see if it was advertised as 16Gb. It is actually most likely the reason it was sold off. Sorry for the bad news.

Thank you for this information, this is surely bad news for me ! Besides internal memory is there any other difference with the 16 gb one?
Thank you!

I was under the impression that it was the exact same as the 16 gb and the only difference was the 8 gb storage. Not sure, though, as I don't have the 8 Gb.
Thank you two for your help! according to one image on the link that xordos provided, the Mate 2 Slim has a 3740 mAh battery compared to the regular 3900 / 4100 mAh battery that the HAM2 has, I think it's not a very big difference. I've been using the cellphone since thrusday and I coulndn't be happier, I don't think I can go back to another cellphone that wouldn't provide at least the same battery life and doesn't have the same screen size. I payed $120 USD for it, so I won't complain to the seller (I think this is a good price) if someone is reading this and has doubts about the slim version, my opinion is if you get a really good price, go for it!!!
Curious. How much room does that leave you for apps? If you find its not enough. Root plus link2sd app works great.

If I recall correctly, it is 1.9 gb usable for apps. I will need to use link2sd!

well looking to breath some new life into my g1 and i was wondering if anyone has tried topram cards? also how are the slim hi cap batteries working out? from i have read it looks like if want longer life the only choice is to brick it (but not with the danger spl lol)whats the beast fat battery for under 30. oh and here is the link for for the top ram i was looking at http://www.buy.com/prod/topram-8gb-...o/q/listingid/61407356/loc/101/213267620.html

im going to buy this on your recommendation if it sux im going to hunt u down ask for my 20 bucks back.lol jk thanks for the tip but for real im going give it a try
That's my exact card in OP.
I bought a extended battery from amazon (accessoryone I think) for $16 something a few weeks ago. With shipping it was under $27. The increased physical size was noticable, but not uncomfortable.
Performance is AMAZING. I leave everything running (data sync, 100% backlight, everything) and still have half a battery after an 8 hour shift of text and web browsing.
No clue on the sdcard, but now I know what I want next.

Wasn't meaning to sound condescending. Good buy, either way.
Are the topram better than the seemingly standard sandisk cards?

Ah, I can't use an extended battery because I have to clip my phone on my belt. I am NOT putting it in my pocket. Would also probably even up leaving it in my car - that's a no-no. Especially in deep south Alabama.
However, I say either way - go ebay. It's pretty much always cheap and most sellers for things like that offer free shipping.
As for it measuring up - well, I can't really say. It's done me good. Class 6 and it averages at... I would say 5.4mb transfer speed (to be safe) on Windows 7. Swap partitioned since say i got it and swap partition is still running smooth and hasn't died out yet. What more do I need from it?
naw you didn't come off condescending. and i have a four gig scan disk class 6 in my g1 right now and paid almost 40 bucks for it about a year ago when i get my in week in a week or two ill run some test and see what i get.
well i got my battery and its awesome!!! it didn't make it that much thicker either. when i get the card ill post some speed test
in case any wanted to know i seem to get about .10 mbs per seconds faster speed from a scan disk verse the top ram for the price difference get the topram.
Cannot find any info about availability, any (real) info about it?

Well, i dont have any links for what i am about to type, but the general consensus from all the mind numbing research and reading we have done regarding this phone, there is some information. The 32 GB version will be released along with the NFC version and with the Tegra2 version. So the first stocks hitting the market will be 16 GB/1.2 Ghz Exynos/Super AMOLED Plus and later stocks can be with Tegra and with NFC.
Hope that helped

whats the differance between the 2 processers?
Is 1 of them better in performance?
I find it strange how they going to sell some with Exynos and then with Tegra,
This will be bad for putting custom roms on them? as they are 2 diff kinds of phones.
Sorry i dont no a great deal about these phones.
Ugh... so if I want AMOLED and Exynos I'm stuck with 16Gb?

No, if you want Galaxy S 2 you're stuck with 16 GB, not only SAmoled+ and Exynos.

Yeah I wasn't very clear. There will be one, but not at the same time than the 16Gb. No release date is known for 32GB.
Samsung Sweden has confirmed that the NFC version coming out later this summer will still sport SuperAMOLED+ and Exynos. However... still no word about whether this version will also have 32Gb or not.
Has anyone else heard anything?
Brgds... /Tubgirl
any information about 32gb variant ???
ugh((((
GSMnation is saying mid-May (their 16GB model is shipping around now). It's priced $110 more.
SGS2 + 16GB card = 32GB that i would have difficulty filling .Filling that is just for the sake of filling .

Thank you ....
good news actually ))))
I've spent most of the last week trying to pin down the release date for the 32GB version. I've gotten dates from May 13 to November, with no real consensus. So if there's anyone out there who has an in at Samsung or one of the UK carriers, now's your chance to gain XDA immortality (or at least a few thanks from those of us looking for the 32GB version).
Basically, I'm trying to determine whether to pull the trigger now, or wait for the 32GB version -- if it's coming out before the end of May, I'll wait. Otherwise, I'll place an order around the end of the week.
Just wondering if anybody has heard anything about this 32Gb version being released???
I remember reading somewhere release towards middle/end of May.
Also heard not being released at all...
Dont know what to believe

Hot damn... I have 80GB of mp3s that I actually like a lot... Add a couple gigs of pictures, two or three movies, and don't forget apps... I feel cramped on my class 10 / 32GB microSD card as it is... A total of 64GB would give me some breathing room.
My biggest problem right now is being an american using a CDMA HTC Evo in Japan for months at a stretch. Finding free WiFi is difficult at best after I leave my apartment. No carrier signal that I've seen so I could not stream music with Google's new beta to save room.
Hoping the semi-confirmed SGS2 for Sprint (aka: Within) will have 32GB and Exnos
Just got this from GSM Nation:
"32gb versions have been delayed by Samsung at least till the end of June, Gsm Nation Sales"

80 GB of MP3's and several GB's of pictures to fit into a phone? You could surely be a bit more selective than that.
Bump!
This thread seems to have the best title of the 7 to bump. I've heard the 32GB will be available in Taiwan near the end of July. Is there any country with the 32GB yet? Is there even one in Korea? I've been dying waiting especially because the 16GB is just sitting there laughing at me saying nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah.
Still no Info on 32 GB version for Europe (most vendors cancelled the preorders, at expansys still "on wait for further infos").
Have my SGS II 16GB + 32 GB mSD now crammed full (internal SD with sygic worldwide maps, external with pics, music and movies) and running out of free mem.
Would need it to have my aviation maps stored too later this year.
Crap is, You cant´s move apps and relating data to external_sd but only Internal sd which limits the use as navi when huge map material has to be stored (right now I have to delete and reload maps depending on where I go). No way to delete movies from external_sd and place maps there ..........
Thanks for the Euroupdate, anyone in Asia got intel? I'm assuming anyone in the dying empire will be last to the table thanks to it's plodding carrier intervention.
I went to my most reliable scuttlebutt source, a Samsung store in a nondescript 1mil + city here in Asia. The clerk gave an extremely non-committal July 30 target date. As I've said in other threads I did see an email from the main government owned carrier also touting this date.
Deleted!!! Ebay pulled the item- kicked the seller out.
Well let me know whats up because if its real I'll get one asap.
Same here. Worst case, we are out 35 bucks.
yeah, let us know if they are in fact real. I think its too good to be true, but I guess you'll find out.
No Waiiiiiiii! I just paid $35 for my 32gb Pny!

I do as well, but hell, if I am out 35 bucks I'll just do a chargeback or some such, or just eat the cost. It shows I should expect delivery between the 15th and 28th of March, so we shall see.
My gut feeling says it's counterfeit...but the fact the seller is charging such a low price for it makes it easier to 'take the hit' if it is in fact counterfeit.
It's mainly the fact that it's coming from China...and how they're notorious for selling fake memory cards and other merchandise. On top of that, that particular eBay seller doesn't have much total feedback, compared to other China eBayers who typically have many thousands.
Even though the shipment time interval seems to be between 3-5 weeks, who knows...you might end up receiving it much earlier (like in half that estimated time frame).
Keep us posted when you receive the goods.
I thought SD maxes out at 32gb. Anything larger will be SDXC. Does the note even support SDXC?
I also remember reading that counterfeiters will sell fake flash memory that reports itself as the correct size but is programmed to overwrite itself once it goes over the actual physical amount of space on the card. For example you bought a 64gb card and it's really only 16b once you load up over 16bg it will start overwriting itself.
He's also got a 32 GB card for $14
Too good to be true... either stolen or counterfeit is my guess. But for those who are getting it and gets it to work, Grats!

128 or 512?
What exactly do you mean? Both are available but I suppose the 128GB version is much more widely used due to the 200$ surcharge for the 512GB version.

As I tried to point out, I suppose the majority will most probably have the 128 GB model because the 512 GB costs 200$ more and offers no real added value because who needs 512 GB of storage on a phone?
Additionally the 512 GB version wasn't in stock at first/released later I think
For better understanding and communication I recommend www.deepl.com/translator it's really good at translating meaningful and contextually aware.
i opted to get the 512GB. i knew 128 gigs wasn't going to be enough for me. unfortunately i destroyed my screen while out to eat and am waiting on getting it repaired.
Mine is 128gb.
Last phone was s7 with 128 memory, and the whole 2 years I had it, it didn't reach 100 gb mark, so i think more than 128 for me is overkill.
I would suggest just using a flash drive and otg it

128GB for me too, don't think I'll need more than that. I'll just store stuff off on the cloud if I do need more later on. Or maybe get that dock that has the SD card attachment.

honestly i dont know. the drop punched a circle through my glass screen protector and completely shattered and destroyed what i assume to be my digitizer. and the nearest asus repair center is three states away from where i am in the USA
Everything I do on the phone is mainly streamed or stored in the cloud I just went for the 128gb version as the only things taking up a little space are the handful of games. Always been fine with the 128gb iPhones and iPads so never needed more.
Heyall
I was wondering if this phone got the virtual ram option, so you can have for example 8+8= 16.
I know some oppos have it, also if it dosnt have it, is there any app that does it? I remember there was some app that have done it on samsung if i remember well.

It will work fine until the ram gets loaded up.
Virtual ram doesn't have near the bandwidth needed and cuts into the internal memory bandwidth, a double whammy. With scoped storage already stealing cpu cycles you don't want anything else slowing it down.
Go with 12gb or more and be happy. The battery consumption is minimal. This ancient Note 10+ is a beast; large ram counts and helps increase the longevity of the device. A N10+ will eat the S22U 8gb alive once the ram get loaded up.
To answer your question, yes the Find N has it. It is called "RAM Expansion"
Once enabled you have 3, 5 and 7GB options (at least on the 12/512 variant anyway)
