I have a 32gig Korean Samsung Player WIFI 4.0. It is rooted and running CyanogenMod version 11.
It runs very slow and cannot hold many apps.
I think there is something 'fishy' going on with the internal memory because it shows it is tiny when in fact it should be 32gig!
Settings>Apps shows that 807MB used and 507MB free.
Settings>Storage shows Internal Storage Total Space 1.28GB
Could it be that the device is not recognising all of the internal storage? And that is why the device is running so slow? If so, is there a fix?

Hi All,
I'm using I-Mobile I-Note with Android 2.3.3. I have a few problems with my tablet.
My tablet comes with 16gb internal memory but when i check my storage, it appear like that
Internal EMMC
Total Space 14.32GB
Avaliable Space 8.96GB
Internal Storage
Available space 52.84MB
My problem is, when i installed a few software from market, my android appear me that i run on low disk space.
How to solve this problem? I want to use all 14.32GB as internal memory.
Any idea?
Thank you
I just bought a Nexus 4 with 16GB internal storage. In Settings, it shows that I have approximately 13GB available. Am I correct in assuming that the OS is using the other 5GB?
The reason why I am curious about this is because I am considering buying the Zopo ZP900, which comes with only 4GB of internal memory for Ice Cream Sandwich. Although I've done quite a bit of research on the ZP900, I'm unable to find any resource that documents the size of the "Device memory" and "USB storage" partitions; looks like I might have to actually buy the phone just to find out! I really disklike the idea of buying a phone only to learn that there's minimal available memory.
I've noticed a few user comments on GizChina where users have complained about phones with only 30MB of available internal memory. Yes, the memory can be expanded with an SD card, but some applications require installation to the internal memory.
I searched the forum for an existing thread on this issue, but couldn't find one; please forgive me if this post is re-hahsing an old issue. Thanks.

16-13 = 3. (not 5) and that part of memory taken up by system includes space for installing apps and stuff. Just get a 16 or 32 gb SD. (not for nexus4, I know) yeah some apps go into internal memory. Keep the unmovable ones on internal and move others to SD. mine has 8 gb internal memory. 4gb taken up by system.
yes the cut off space is used by the os and dedicated internal space for installation of apps n games. I think u cant install apps in your remaining internal memory. apps can installed only in dedicated internal memory or sdcard. if can also use ur remaining internal memory as sdcard by the help of rooting.
This isn't my tablet, I used to have a Gtab from 2010-2012. This is my cousin's tablet and he recently bricked it. I just updated his boot loader from 1.1 to 2.2 and flashed a Jelly Bean rom. My question is, since he was in a Ginger Bread rom previously and had his internal storage partitioned. How do I partition the internal storage with 4.X.X to be able to use all ~12GB of internal storage for apps? Right now it is showing ~4GB available space for apps, but when you go to storage. It shows an internal storage of ~12GB. Only when you go to Applications does it show ~4GB.
Thank you.

Hello, the 4GB yuo see is for internal application storage (sometimes referred to as "phone" storage). The 12GB is for photos, videos, etc. Some ROMs can use this storage for applications too - check with your ROM developer (andbe sure to thank them!).
Running a SG i9100, rooted Carbon JB v1.8 stable 4.2.2, Kernel 3.0.64 CM
Been having problems with phone running out of storage. Last time i flashed my phone with CR 1.8 I did a clean install and formatted internal storage and SD card. The problem still occur, not at once but after some weeks etc. When the exclamation mark occur I restart the phone and it dissappear but I can still not update apps or download new ones. Insufficent storage comes up as an error message.
I have moved all my apps to the SD card, still having the same problem.
The funny thing is when I look at the internal storage on my phone it states:
Total space 1.97GB
Available: 188MB
Apps: 1.16GB
Cached data :12.16MB
Simple maths tells me I should have about 800MB free...
Under Downloaded apps it states 1.8GB used and 200MB free.
On SD card states 1.4GB used and 10GB free.
Seems like there are some hidden apps using my memory and I cant figure out which one or something else.
Need some help.. Any ideas gyus?
Cheers
I use a 9 inches Qpad, rooted, owl upgrade bootloader. Model number L916-3 internal memory is 16gb partitioned into 2.. 4gb for installation and 12gb as internal sdcard.. 32gb external sdcard.. 2gb Ram
Now, the first problem is aver since the day I started using it, the Ram as been used up even though there are very few applications installed. I usually have less than 350gb free ram space. So the device is slow..
Second problem is I installed the things I needed along the line, but recently I realized applications are missing on my phone, like 11 of them, at first I think this is nothing.. I tried to instal some again then it says insufficient memory.. then I uninstall some applications, some well above 45mb, and yet I can't instal back an application of 850kbytes.. and I still have above 3gb free internal memory, 7gb free internal sdcard and 28gb free external sdcard.. please help me, my device is becoming useless
