Storage space low. - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

So, I keep getting a low memory storage space message on my phone. Looking at my memory settings it doesn't quite add up. Simple math. Any help? Thanks

What are the Specs on your phone ? Is it a 16 GB or 32 GB version ?
The screen shows 12 GB total space. That sounds about right if its a 16 GB version. First try a factory Reset to see the same numbers then. Otherwise you may have to repartition the phone.

16 gig version. Thanks for your help.

In that Case your 12 GB sounds about right. Please do a factory Reset and then Look at the information. Also try the DiskInfo app.

eMMC stands for embedded multi media card. Its basically the SD that came with your phone. You can use an app called storage analyzer to see what is taking up space on the emmc .

Weird space addition

Just looked at my 16 GB T999. Total 12.05 GB, 5.xx GB free. That means 7 GB total used. The screenshot shows about 2 GB for apps and music. I have only 1 CWM backup. Surely Android 4.1 cant take up 5 GB? Where has this space gone to?
Check your file manager. Whatd does it say is used/free for /sdcard?

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.

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

Or games data. My Note II came with some demo games. You can click on the miscaleanous line and see wich thing consume the space.
Demos would be marked as apps...

yes just tap the misc files line to see the files. my note 2 had 9.92 as the out of box storage. there will be little variance in the storage depending on the region it has been released in.
Here it is guys..
This is stock vodafone Australia rom. 7105 lte model without lte option, (voda aus:thumbdown: ) I haven't rooted yet. Thinking to flash new one.

(Q) system memory on darthstalker

I'm new to S4, came from Hercules. Running darthststalker, love the rom. I'm running low on storage space. No music or pics right now. Have about 900 mb left. Any ideas?

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!
