Hi,
My New N7100 shows the Total Space as 10.36GB and Available space is 9.92GB !! From what i've read before I should have around 10.36GB as available space, is my phone normal???
Go to storage and see what is using space.

I guess you didn't get my question correctly....I did that already...i'm talking about the actual phone space out of the box
Im having 10.36 as Total and 10.36 as available.
That should be the correct specs on your phone.
Look again if there are some folders or stuff eating up the ~1 gb. Dropbox or something.

Hmmmm.....i'll do that and report back, thanks.
Did you login with your Google play/Gmail account during the initial startup wizard? If you had previously installed apps from Google store it might automatically start installing them and that could be the reason you didn't get the total storage.

Go to storage in settings and take a screen shot of what is using how much space.

Miscellaneous files...
Probably a nandroid backup...
I don't know but maybe N7105T has a bit less space. It's a 200 mb difference.
Imao not a very major issue.

Instead of buying a microsd I was thinking of giving cloud storage a try.. who uses it abd whats the best one to use??

Both drop box and CX have apps available in the play store. Drop box gives you 2 GB free storage but CX gives you 10 GB. MediaFire gives you 50 GB but has no android app. (Apparently a MediaFire app is under development). The one thing to say about all of them is that upload/download speeds are less than desirable......

What if one day you will no longer use a Samsung phone? SD is a must, cloud storage (any) is just an available options that eventually forces you to (extensively) use data and to give away you privacy - of course there will be others who will swear by it and unfortunately Samsung is the only manufacturer still making phones with external SD support. Anyway, consider these 2 arguments and make your educated choice.
I keep everything on an SD card AND backed up to Dropbox. In the past I've lost an SD card when it fell out of my hand and into a friends front porch with no possible way to retrieve it. I would have lost everything if I didn't have my Dropbox backup.
Box is running a 50gb free for life deal. doesn't auto sync. Just download foldersync and you are set.

i need help I've tried 6 rom or so and they all have the same problem where if I try downloading from the internet it would say download unsuccessful, not enough memory. I was able to download apps from the play store and from XDA. Does anyone know whats wrong? please help!
thank you!
Make sure you have enough space for a ROM, usually a ROM is around 500 mb, compared to an app which is usually less then 50 mb. So just because you have enough for an app does not mean its enough for larger files. Go to Settings> Storage to find out how much you need/have.

Am I missing some memory? Shouldnt I have more available then 3.5? Is this normal guys I thought this phone has 16gb internal?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
You got one of the recall S4's probably. Shake the phone and see if you hear something rattle, if so thats the missing memory. Take it back to the store for recall replacment
Some of that 16gb is dedicated to the "system" (Rom and pre installed app)

You didnt happen to use CWM to back up, did you? If so, theres your problem.

Most likely the other part of you answer. Although its a 16gb device only around half of it is usable storage. Still after flashing a ROM I tend to have 7+GB available. Backups take a big chunk. 2.5 - 3gb and by default store internally. Move these to an external SD and select external as default storage on next backup. I actually have a separate 32gb thumb drive+ otg cable with a backup from multiple ROMs. And I select the USB otg option. Keeps my on board SD cards clean.

Do you have any nandroid backup? Those take up a good chunk of spaces. Thread title say system space our did you mean internal sd space?

The total available user memory of all variants of the Galaxy S4 is 9GB .
The rest of the 16GB's are used by the phone's firmware/rom.
And NO the number or size of nandroid backups will not give
you more or less TOTAL available/usable memory.
The more of that 9GB of memory you use up with nandroid
backups or anything else the less you will have leftover.
It makes NO difference how big or many megabytes your rom is.
The additional 6GB's are pre-allocated for the phone to be used
by the firmware/rom and cannot be changed or altered.
Check it out, here are the full specs:
http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Samsung-Galaxy-S4_id7597
scroll down until you see "memory"and read the specs. carefully.
Good luck!
Thank you. That makes sense. Gonna have to get a big sd card then!

Check out the Settings->Storage screen to see where all the storage is being used, maybe you have too many apps? If it is files, I would download ES File Explorer, it has some great utilities for finding and cleaning up your storage.
Use the app DiskUsage.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.diskusage&hl=en
It will tell you exactly where all your big files are.
Or sdmaid

with a root explorer see what is taking your memory in data/media, you may have nandroid backups for example.
