How can we go about getting the rest of our internal memory?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

there is no more internal memory to get. I don't have links to the actual explanation but essentially htc took the 4gb flash memory and organized/opitmized it in order to increase performance but it means we don't actually have 4gb of internal memory

Reduce internal mem usage

Phone gets real slow when int mem gets low. So how do I release mem? I've realised that moving apps to SD does reduce it but not all will move. I've moved what I can so far but would still like more free int mem.

Root it or buy a new phone.
Several topics above yours you could find HTC Desire memory issues, at the 4th page I have described what one can do to increase available memory. And yeah, root + custom rom is probably the best thing you can do.
Edit
Ah I didn't saw that you are already rooted, so get a rom with more space for apps
Thx. Hmmmm yeah rooted with large SD. 2g ext4. Isn't there a method to use some SD space as internal or extention too?

Use data2sd, data2ext or data2whatever..
You can find it in development section..

take a look at this, DZ have a full HTC GB rom, just with ALL the space you need...

(Q) what's eat all my internal memory?

Because my internal memory has only 500 megabytes free of almost 7Gb.. And that scares me.. because I can see that all the application install on my internal memory occupies altogether 1Gb..where is the rest.. ?
Can someone help me out? What should I do to increase a free space in my internal memory?
Delete emails or messages or what?

Yes this is normal.

Yes this is normal, 2GB are for RAM, some for the OS etc. and the rest is free memory.

Wth does ram have to do with nand memory?
To OP. That is correct amount but not cause of RAM. The 16gb memory is partitioned for system, cache data etc.
And the one left is your sdcard.
You can always an external sdcard for music, photos and movies.
But game data and some other data like from gps apps must install in internal.

I just read something about nand memory being used as ram extension. I have no idea if that is the case here or not. http://wikibon.org/wiki/v/The_adoption_of_NAND_Flash_as_a_Seamless_Extension_of_RAM_Memory

If I understand that correctly it means that after ram is filled it will use nand space as virtual ram. I think that would decrease read speeds as nand is significantly slower than ram.

Yes that is what I understood from the article too, so we have dedicated 2gb of ram that has nothing to do with the 16 gb of storage, right? I wasnt entirely sure

Yes. Ram is autonomous memory. Nothing to do with the internal 16gb nand flash memory.

[Q] Low internal memory

Hi,
HTC DESIRE, rooted with Gingerbread 2.3.3.
I have internal memory problem and always will remove apps if getting "LOW ON SPACE" notification. Can anyone suggest the procedures how to increase the memory level.
Thanks.
This is in the wrong section. Please post your question in the Desire thread.
As for your question, the internal memory of a phone can't be easily expanded. You'd have to look in the Desire forums but there may be a method of using your external SD as your internal memory.

[Q]External SD to Internal Sd

Hi is there any mod to switch external memory to internal like on previous HTC Phones and Samsung phones where everything by default is saved to the external sdcard?
Sent from my HTC One_M8
+1 I hate that the recovery and backups went straight to the internal storage. I prefer recovery and backups on the sd in case my internal storage gets wiped.
Yes that's right, although philz backup allows u do save to external sdcard, however app data for gameloft games and other apps quite quickly fill the internal sdcard, on the Samsung s3 and HTC one sv I had a mod which allowed all downloaded app data to go straight to external memory card, the mod showed the external memory as internal to all, it allowed unlimited apps
From past experience in HTC and some Samsung Phones the following file is modded "vold.stab" to switch the memorys.

Imo I wouldn't put any apps or app data on external since the card is so slow compared to internal.

To be honest I've had a sgs3 for 2 years with the mod on from the beginning and it hardly made any difference to the speed, the app itself is stored on internal memory but any external data the game or app downloads stores itself on the external memory card, and the HTC m8 being a BEAST i dnt think we Shud c any lags

I agree. Especially if you use a decent uhs-1 sdcard
