Hi all, just seeing if anyone can tell is it normal to have 20 gig of system space?

Thanks everyone
Of my 32GB of Internal Shared Storage, approx. 20GB has been used, 9.4GB of which are taken by the System. Stock 1.54. Not rooted.

My sister's I9100M came with stock Bell/Virgin GB so this morning I flashed it with Resurrection Remix v2.6.1 and I seem to be missing roughly 1.5GB of internal storage space. Is there a way to get it? When I mount the phone in the computer, there's two partitions on the phone, but the 2nd partition cannot be accessed and says there's 0 bytes of space on it. The ROM itself has a 2GB partition, and the internal storage is given 11.5GB, so there's another 1.5GB or so missing.

That is normal. I have the same model and same rom and I'm getting the same internal storage space. I would advise just picking up an external sd card if space in an issue. I picked up a 16gig for 15 bucks at bestbuy/future shop. I believe Ice Cream Sandwich just simply takes up more space than Gingerbread with its system files and such. Anyways, to sum up...
1. Yes it's normal.
2. Go buy an external sd. Very affordable.
Is there a way to fix it? Would flashing official ICS + pit fix this?

There is no "fix", as it's not missing. It's reserved and used by the system.

Isn't the 2GB that I mentioned reserved for the system? On my i896, 2GB for ROM/System + 13GB internal storage makes up to roughly 16GB.

No. The 2gb partition should be for apps, the 11.5gb for user files (music, pictures, videos, etc). The remaining is for system use.
Hey guys, I just have a quick question regarding the memory of the tablet.
I have a 32GB model, but the thing is that in the Settings -> Memory, the Internal Memory (which is the on-board one, not the.SD card) is showing as "Available: 19,68 GB".
But how come that there is only 19 GB available when it's the 32GB model? Where are the other 12GB?
Not all 32 GB are user accessible. Some is reserved for the OS, and some is partitioned solely for apps (I think its something like 8 GB for the OS and 4GB for apps).
On the 16 GB version, only abour 4 GB is available as user accessible storage. So the 12 GB that are "missing" are right on (same as my 16 GB version).
EDIT: Didn't quite get the numbers right (didn't have my Flyer with me when I typed the above response).
16 GB Flyer: roughly 4 GB for OS, 4 GB for apps, leaving about 8 GB for user-accessible storage
32 GB Flyer: roughly 4 GB for OS, 8 GB for apps leaving about 20 GB for user-accessible storage
Ok, so I just received a new Lenovo Ideapad a2107a-h from ATT. This is supposed to be a 16GB tablet. When you go into storage under settings, it says that I have 503 MB of intenal storage and then 12.99 GB of internal memory. It gives me an option to default install apps to internal memory, but it goes right to the internal storage of 503 MB. Even when I move some apps, there is a few mb's that get left behind. Once I fill up that internal storage of 503 MB, it tells me I am out of space, yet I stilll have 12GB of internal memory. ATT swapped out my tablet, it has the same issue. Lenovo says they have never heard of this befoer and I should just have 12.99 GB (16GB) of storage, period. Anyone know why this would be like this? Also, when you go to apps, it shows the 12.99 GB as SD storage?

I have a problem pertaining to the storage space of my phone. I have an HTC One 32gb and I currently have about 5 gb of free space left. When I go into root explorer and check the space of my external sd card. It's only used up about about 15 gb. So my question is where is the rest of the space. I know the system takes up about 4-5 gb or something like that, but it shouldn't take up 17 gb! Also, there's a folder named "data" in my root storage, not the sd card folder, that takes up around 18 gb but I'm not sure what the files are inside. How do I free up more space on my phone? Any help or explanation would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Search! This has been explained many times.

Hi Guys!
Im just asking for system space on internal memory.
Im on MIUI 8 Global Beta and locked BL, my Phone is Snapdragon version with 16/2GB memory. There is only 11,8GB space showing on system drive with around 4GB available of this space.
Shouldnt it be showing 16GB space on system?! Or is Android System taking around 4 to 5 GB for itself??
Bye,
Andreas
There will be some difference in storage size available due to the difference in the way manufacturers calculate storage size. Manufacturers usually use 1GB = 1000MB, but it is actually 1GB = 1024MB.
Also, the android system will take up quite some space. I use a 32/3 GB kenzo myself, and android system shows as 7 GB.
If you require more space, you can try clearing the cache from settings.
