Where is all my storage space? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I'm no mathematician, but i figure that i should have a bit more free space than this. The OS doesn't take up that much space does it?

It does, so this is normal. Unless it's a CDMA phone

The OS doesn't take nearly the 5GB that the OP is missing.

13.33GB is total available. That's the 16GB after formatting (without getting into Gigabytes vs Gibibytes). However, only about 3.447GB is shown as in use.
13.33 - 3.447 = 9.883
It shows 4.59GB available. That's about 5GB missing.

Lost space? Perhaps game data

Hi all,
I just went from full stock to ordroid 7.1.0. When I check my available space I see this.

}
Now I have lost a lot of space "overig". Is this maybe caused by previously installed games? And if so, how do I fully delete game data without fusing around in explorer?

It is the other storage I am worried about
you mean the 25Gb available and not 32?

No I think he means the 4.43 GB out of 6.76 GB
It's a little strange, cause the App space is at my phone (stock 2.17) is 2.11 GB and I have 1.28 GB available. So you have more space available then me on Stock ROM with 852 MB on Apps. I wouldn't worry at this moment. But you could ask at the Ordroid thread, why it's showing so much space and "Overige" section.
This is mine... But it seems ok

[Q] 4GB of misc storage?

I cant figure out whats taking up a 4gb of my phones storage? There's 13.33gb total with 6.22gb available. I've tried resets in recovery, file browser apps, plugging it up to the computer, and no luck. 6gb of availible is plenty but don't want it to get to the point to where it slows the device down. I've deleted backups of old ROMs which helped a little. Help por favor!
You've told us nothing with which to give you a solution from. Take screenshots of your Storage screen so we can see what is using what.

Why didn't I do that.. Just flashed a new rom before posting this and didnt try it. All of my previous roms said "no information available"
After tapping that it turns out clockworkmod is using 3.46gbs. Not sure what could be using that much from there though.

Really sorry for off-topic but I'm going to buy a nexus. I know it has 1GB RAM but actually how much RAM is usable? I try to find some About phone screenshot but found only this:

Only 693MB, really? In LG L9 (nearly similar specs) it has more than 800MB RAM

In all seriousness. It is probably a lot of work.. And if it is even working in probably wouldnt be optimized so there would be very little improvement..

There are superram kernels with around 800 mb ram. But I have never had issues with the normal ram..

Is there diference in storage speed 16gb vs 32gb?

Thinking of buying this phone, its right on the limit of my budget...
Sent from my LG-P880 using Tapatalk
I dont think so. its only for flash-based storage like UFS found in new phones. 5x uses emmc, 5.0 to be exact. lastly, please don't buy 16gb and try to buy 32gb
If you buy the 16gb version be prepared to run out of storage frequently if you keep music, photos, etc on your device (not in the cloud). The latest MM system image is around 6-7 gigs, and once you factor in apps that precious space disappears pretty quick. As most everyone will probably tell you, just spring for the 32gb device.
Seriously, don't get 16GB. I'm pretty minimal on my apps, don't do gaming, and apps plus system is already 11+GB. Not worth the headache of micromanaging your storage or skimping out on apps.
