Hello I have an HTC Desire 816 and I literally have no storage whatsoever to be able to download the apps that I want. The only two apps I have downloaded I'd snapchat and instagram but they have been moved to my SD card so what the hell is taking up all the apps and other part? When I first bought the phone I could install lots of apps and games without having to worry about moving them to an sd. I just don't get it, does anybody have any idea? Also I have recently reset my phone like an hour ago and that didn't work either. My device is 8GB. Other takes up 6.37 and apps takes up 1.22. There is only 355mb left and I don't know what HTC expect me to do with that much?
Have you upgraded it to lollipop? If so you will have storage issues.. If you are still on kitKat, may be your old apps files might have taken all your storage space..ex: whatsapps media files..use HTC makemore space option in the storage settings, which will give you more idea on the consumed space.

Exactly what it says.
Camera defaults to store photos on internal memory. Why? It immediately takes up what little internal storage the device already has.
Is there anyway around it?
This phone launched with US Cellular only a few days ago, so I'm not sure if it's a known problem or not.
Thank you.
Problem solved. I had unmounted my SD Card and reformatted. After that, the camera started saving pics to my SD.
Has anyone on EVO come across this problem. I keep getting low disk space on my EVO. I uninstall apps to get more internal space, but then it drops again. On Friday I had approx 48mb of internal storage, then by 4:00pm I had 323 kb. I uninstalled a bunch of apps and now I am back at around 48mb.
I went into sd and storage to monitor my space. I also went into menu settings/ applications to see what was taking up the space. By chance I noticed that my Mail icon in the morning was at about 75mb and when I checked it that afternoon it was at 111mb. I called sprint tech support and we deleted/ then added my email accounts again to see if that would clear up space. We also set the max amount of space for msgs to 25 kb. text only. This seems to be working, but still under my mail settings under applications, the MAIL still shows using up about 95mb of storage.
Sprint tech support states that that is really high, but for some reason it is not something that can be erased. Of course I can always do a wipe, but that is always as a last resort. Just trying to gain back some of that precious internal storage.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
In the few years I spent supporting mobile phones for companies low internal storage space was almost always caused by pictures, mp3s, and movies.
So how much of that do you have on your phone?

The EVO saves that kind of media to the SD card.
OP, what ROM are you running?
I know that apps like streamfurious will cache its content and store it to the phones memory. It can Max you out in a matter of hours. Do you use streaming apps?

A misbehaving app is probably the culprit. I'd really recommend Cachemate in the market. There's a chance that one run of that may solve your problem.
Also, if OP is running CyanogenMod w/ Turbo that'll occupy a good amount of internal memory as well.
I use Xiia Live llite. Usually in the evening. . I'll check that out and see if it shows how much is cached.
Thanks
I'll check it out. thanks. Ok it cleared about 3mb.
My mail icon still shows 99 mb of data. If you go menu, settings,applications, manage applications, It brings up everything that you have installed. You can list them by size. The Mail icon HTC, is the one taking up all the space. is there any way to eliminate it? I am running rooted 2.1. I will probably OTA to 2.2 tonight and unrevoke 3.21. Don't know if this will help.
Thanks
I'm running into low storage also.... I have alot of apps but have moved most to sd card that I can... Anymore tips to get storage back?
Hey
I just bought a new HTC One V and i want apps to be installed on my sd card and i cant(there is a very low percentage of apps that can what should i do??)My phone is not rooted and i am not willing to root it too.Please help me out
Are you running out of storage for apps? It should be totally unnecessary to do this. You have 1GB of space to use. Storing apps to the SD card only slows them down.
@CafeKampuchia: really i didn't know that but i want to shift apps to sd card so that the phone is fast
Then don't move them. Moving apps to the SD card may have made older devices faster, but not this one. It's got plenty of fast memory for apps.
I suggest you leave apps on the device unless you're running out of memory, which basically isn't going to happen until you spend a couple hours randomly downloading large apps from Google Play.
Ive had the phone for about a month and my internal storage seems to have disappeared. So it has a 16gb Hard drive in the phone and I have a 16gb SD in the phone as well. When I go into settings, storage and look at the storage its says Ive used 14gb of 16gb, which seems weird because I dont have much installed on the phone. I have continually uninstalled apps to keep my room available but it seems I have less and less apps on it and less and less storage. I then plug the phone in to my PC and also use clean master to see what my storage is and they both say I have 1.7gb remaining out of 10gb.
So my question is where has the 6gb's gone?
TL/DR
Phone says ive used 14gb/16gb but my pc and clean master app say Ive used around 8gb/10gb
Try using app called diskusage, it should help you a bit.

Hi, first of all, I used general mobile discovery before htc desire 816. Like desire 816, it had very low internal storage to keep app datas. However, some developers make it possible to increase internal storage which is just only for apps. They added parts which is for media and music in internal storage of phone to the parts that is for just only for apps. After this, I was able to use all internal storage of phone for app.
Is it possible to do same operations for our phone?
you can set your camera to store all captures on external SD, also save music to Sd card. my personal problem is with viber. it easily accumulates near 2 GBs in a couple months. just the stickers occupy nearly a gigabyte of space
I already set all the options that you said. Although there is nothing in internal storage except apps, it is almost full and I don't know why. Besides, we can't check our phone storage in order to delete or modify. This is negative side of HTC desire 816.

you can use Es explorer whixh is great, and you can also use HTC file manager. they both provide some level of access.
