Available memory for Apps on 16gb version - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I preordered a 16gb for when the phone launches here in Canada. Just wondering how much space is left to install apps on it so I can decide if I need to wait for the 32gb version? <really, really, hopes not>
Thanks

You have almost 10gb left over. I will be having the same issue and looking at directorybind or apps2sd(if it gets updated). Hope this answered your question.

thanks for info

SanDisk microSDHC 16GB

Any of you guys tried this card with Desire?
Would like to know if it's worth it...
I think the "speed class" of it or whatever is on 2. If that makes any difference.
@Mods, if this thread is posted in wrong place, please move it. Thank you!
The maximum storage capacity on the Desire is 32GB so I don't see why not.
Please search before posting next time.
speed class for me makes a difference asi use the camer and video. higher class = higher potential transfer speeds
Opps sorry about that. Totally forgot about searching :S
The memory card that came with the Desire is only class 2 anyway so just gauge it by that.
Yes, I'm using one. No problems at all. And I'll be getting a 32gb one when they become available in a few weeks, at about £100, as opposed to SanDisk charging £150 now.
@92sky
Funny that you mention 32gb, because I looked around and couldn't find any :S All I could find were 16gb
@Alex
Yes I'm aware of that, but is it really that noticeable IRL? or more of the benchmark munching nitpicking diffs?

Expansys, Play.com, MyMemory and Mobile Fun are all listing it at around £99, for late April/early May delivery. I phoned Mobile Fun yesterday who said that it was due now, but has been delayed because of the volcano.
Oh thx mate! Gonna have a look there then.
EVERYTHING is delayed because of the lil' ol' cano it seems.
My Desire included (The phone that is)

At my age, my desire is always delayed.
I am using 16 GB micro sd card, class 6 ... and it is really worth it
@92sky
I won't even ask LOL
Odd, could find 32gb only at expansys, and they didn't have any price point on that...
@gogol
Aren't they expensive like there is no tomorrow?
Using a 16gb class 6 sandisk as well and I have to agree it works like a charm.
I remember reading somewhere that 32gb sdhc cards aren't supported atm, but will be shortly on the desire.
Not sure though, but do a search for it before you plunge into forking out the cash for one of those.
I do remember reading, either here or on another forum, that someone had bought their 32gb direct from SanDisk, and said it worked with no problems.
I've got a SanDisk 16GB Class 2 card, works fine, no issues with speed at all

That was me, Sandisk is selling them exclusively through their online stores in the US (and I think the UK too now).
32GB card working just fine, loving it.

I believe you can't format them in the phone, according to one report I saw, but otherwise they function as you would expect.
Argh choices choices!
I think for now, I gonna go and get meself a 16gb class 2, should suffice until the better ones comes out...

Micro SD cards

Just wanted to share this with you guys. Found it while browsing through my local craigslist. It has 16GB class 4 for $24.99 and 32GB class 4 for $39.99.
uvantis.com
this uvantis.com was just created 12/10/10 dont know if id jump just yet.
It accepts payment through paypal I see, I am also looking to buy the 32gb for 39.99. Free shipping as well. Seems to good to be true. I recently got ripped off from some stupid chinese website selling electronics, at least this website will take paypal I am figuring.
paypal only gives you the money back if they can get it back from the seller, and im guessing they won't be able to. I dont agree only shady companies advertise on craigslist, but it seems this one is.

There are several threads on here for Micro SDHC cards. There is a 32GB Micro SDHC Class 10 card by Lexar. It's $108 on Amazon, but someone found a link to a different store out there for $88. Check this thread.

No way. I hate swapping out my 4gb and 8gb now, as it is. I'd much rather have a 32gb and have it all on one card.

ummmmmm 109 vs 60, that's almost double, now im not poor, i own gucci t shirts and dolce and gabbana t shirts, a bunch actually, money has nothing to do with it, its the value you receive, 109 dollars is not worth 32 gigs of memory when 16 is plenty and if you need that extra little boost, either free some of the junk you shouldnt have on there, or buy one more, you shouldnt need to change a 16 gig 5 times a day...if you need it its there but there should be no reason why...nothing can justify 109 dollars for a memory card, im sorry if you feel otherwise
and the reason you must swap so much is bc you have a 4 gig and a 8gig...theyre small and probably slow...

apparantly he does with a 4 and 8 which would prove him wrong becuase 4+8=12...<16, so a 16 would be fine including an extra 4 gigs for him just a reference not as a generalization...

That math makes no sense, 2 cards, 60 each=120 or 1card for 108.../did I miss something
Nevermind, I just realized it's 2 for $60. I still wouldn't want to have to switch cards all the time

lol its all good...and you shouldnt have to switch all the time, tell me what takes up so much room on your sd that you need 32? and if it came to say 21 or so, for the justification of 30 dollars to 108...you cant figure out a way to downsize or delete some unused files, i mean be realistic...

Why would you not get the 32GB if you can afford it. Not having to worry about running out of space is more realistic that having to worry about what files I have to delete.
So... you know how much storage I need and how I use it? To clear things up, I have been waiting on the 32gb card to come out because I wanted to replace my iPod. I didn't want to purchase a 16gb card because that wouldn't have been enough storage for my music collection and the occasional TV episode or movie. Two or three 16gb cards would mean I would have to put my music and videos on multiple cards and swap them depending on what I wanted to listen to or watch at the moment.
And it has nothing to do with the speed. I'm not doing apps2sd. I simply need more storage on one card. I'm surprised it's that hard to understand. Talk about fail...

[Q] Get 16GB or wait for 32GB

i live in holland.and i want this damn phone!!
but should i wait for the 32GB or get the 16GB out of the uk and have it sooner.
any sugestions on what takes up the space?
how manny MB's will 1080p recording be and stuf? any one just have a slight idea?
oh and. WHERE IS THE Q/A for galaxy nexus forums!!!!!?????
Since there's no micro-sd slot I would wait for the 32 gb version. But then I use my phone as my primary music player, fstore video and also use it as my primary camera. It depends on what you plan on using it for. If you store a lot of files on then wait.
I wouldn't wait for anything indefinitely when a version is already released. I've never come close to using 16GB on my phone since I keep my music on the cloud.

agreed.......
I probably don't NEED the 32 gig model but that is probably the route I will end up going.
no memory card slot? what?!
I had not heard about that, is it 100% confirmed? i was so looking forward to this phone, but this is such a deal breaker
No sd. Yeah it sucks! I would prob wait for 32 if it wasnt to long. On the other hand, my 8gb sd has been fine. I think im getting the vigor though because the samsung seems a little big for me.

Another thing to consider is the phony preorder prices. Once we know the actual pricing on the Nexus we can make a better choice. If the 32 isn't ridiculously expensive over the 16, that's the route I'll be going. But if they make it $200 more over the 16, screw that, I'll cloud.

Kinda cheap actually
Depends solely on your needs - or what your data plan looks like. I've had the same 8gb card with me since my G1 and have never come close to filling it. All I store locally are pictures. For me music = cloud. The extent of my video watching on the phone is internet/youtube...so for me, the 16gb is a no brainer. If you need lots of local storage, go 32gb.

Seems to be conflicting information out there, some reports state that the UK 16GB version will have an SD card slot but it will be missing from the US version.
Who knows whether these these reports are accurate. Would make more sense if the LTE version didn't have the slot as it needs extra space but the HSPA+ version does.

the 560 is just a bit to much. plus the 500 euro vor 16GB also includes shipping.

How much storage on 16GB version?

Hi Guys, didnt see an answer so thought I would ask. How much free internal space is there on the 16GB M8?

Thanks, got my M8 a few days ago. While the addition of the sd card was a good move, I think HTC still should only have made a 32GB model instead of 16. As 9-10 GB can run out pretty quickly even with music/photos/video saved to the extSD. My previous phone the S4 got a lot bad press about having 8-9GB available on the 16GB model. The phone is definitely the smoothest/fastest ever, HTC have done a great job at perfecting Sense and really optimising the UI.
How much space have people been freeing up after rooting and debloating? Or is this this stuff on the /System partition and so won't have a bearing on user accessible space.
@gsmyth - Just so you're aware, I've moved these posts from the FAQ thread into its own thread. The FAQ isn't the place to ask or answer any questions so please remember that in future
