Hi all,
Hi All, I bought the US Version 64 GB/4GB phone. How do you test/confirm the amount of ROM and RAM on your zf2? In Titanium Backup I see the following and wondering if this is a cause for concern. It shows ROM at 2.34 GB is this what others are seeing?
see screenshot below:

So what you are looking at is the system rom partition (closed system that can be accessed by root), your internal storage and your external storage. There is no mention of RAM there...
You need to check with some other app to find out your RAM...
ROM is your system partition, which is were you "system.img" goes, ram is around 3.7GB which is completly normal since the gpu takes ram and system runtime, and after that "user available ram" which is 1.4GB or so depends on how many apps your running etc...dont be concerned those numbers are completly normal.

Any suggestions on an app that does that? And whats the point of having 4 GB of ROM if it's partitioned and the OS can't even access it all?

Thats a safety measure in case the manufacture needs more space in a future OTA update, and you "can" access it with root, like i said stop worrying about rom partition size, sit back and enjoy your new phone.

With a 64GB Internal Storage, it wont make much difference
As for the app, look on the play store for a "Hardware Checker"

hi there,
the official HTC Desire specs say it has 512mb internal memory, but mine says it has only a total of 148MB in the corresponding settings page. although i install all apps possible on the SD now i have a lack of memory... only 10MB left and i get a permanent icon in the status bar saying theres only little spacy left. and i dont have many apps installed and did a full wipe 2 weeks ago.
what can i do? did i maybe get a broken phone?
thanks in advance!
No your phone is fine, do some searing for A2SD+ or Data2sd.
i have App2SD installed! but having skype and stuff which is only installable on the internal memory uses almost all the space i have. most of my apps are on the SD though.
Not A2SD but A2SD+, this uses a ext partition instead of the froyo version.

Correct. I agree with TheGhost1233, for the moment, it's best to use A2SD+ and not FroYo A2SD. Data2ext is still in development and isn't completely finished yet. You still may find that not 100% or app data can be placed to the SD card because of developer restrictions (not all apps will move as they need to be modified by the developer).
cool stuff. thank you for your help! i will try it tonight after work!

FYI the official specs say the desire has 512mb rom not internal storage, rom includes all the partitions on the desire, boot, system, cache, data, recovery, radio hboot. blah blah blah
ok, so after a lot of months i managed to root and s-off my desire correctlty. i installed sandvolds android 4.0 rom with a built in a2sd script. im not exactly sure which one i chose, but it was "apps and dalvik on ext" but i still have the memory problem in install 5 or 6 apps and then i get the message that no free space is left to install more apps. i dont get it, arent apps supposed to be installed on the ext partition i chose during the installation? heres a screenshot of the memory status:

Hi to all.
I have a problem with the ROM "Android Revolution HD 33.1.
The ROM is amazing, but I believe I do something wrong. I installed ROM and it works very well (in HTC One X). But the internal space (6,76GB total) is busy. I had only 1,4 gb free. And in the configuration of the phone, it tell me that 500mb are in apps and 4,82 in "other" stuff.
Anyone know why happen this? Because in the previous version of this ROM I had enough space, but in this version...
Maybe the reason are the tweaks installed? I installed most part of them, to improve perfomance.
Thanks a lot for the help . And sorry for my english, I dont talk it very well.
Regards
I also had this with stock rom. The "other" is the system i guess

Hi Angelo, thanks for respond me.
Really? Because I believe that other version of "Android Revolution" (version 17) take less space in memory than this. With version stock I dont remember, but sure that take a lot of memory too.
Maybe this is because instaling the ROM I put some tweaks, one of them have separate partitions to /home, etc.
Anyway you may have reason, and "other" is all the system.
Thanks a lot

Hello everyone,
I need help with something, yesterday I was looking at some settings on my M8, I went into settings->storage, and then I noticed that Other is using 5.67GB of my 16GB storage! Naturally I started investigating. Apps were fine -> 2.27 GB I presume with cache included, I also presumed that it is not system, since system is probably using that part of memory from 13.58GB 'til 16GB. So the big question is what the hell is this and why os ot using so much space? I also asked people with M8, and everyone is reporting having more than 5GB under Other! So I need help tracking what this is,and how to get rid of it. Also people could check and post their screenshots here.Also, I dont have facebook,skype or any games installed on my M8, so this is really interesting. Hoping to get some clarification on this. Thanks!

Same here, Other was about 6GB when I was on Sense. I guess it's all the bloat HTC puts on the device. Right now I'm on GPE which doesn't have any "Other Storage".

I suggest you get the DiskUsage app from the Play Store. You will be able to find out exactly what is taking up your storage. I use it myself, and it is a great tool to have.

Hi all

It won't tell you what app, but it will tell you what files are taking up all the space. From there, you should be able to figure out what is going on.
What is te name of the folders that DiskUsage is indicating as taking up all the space?
Hi guys! I'm using zen2 - 551ML 2.3Ghz/32GB rom/4Gb ram.
Currently im running 2.19.40.22 stock firmware, my phone is rooted, i also flashed Project T v46 kernel.
I used Titanium to freeze all these system apps that i dont use, i did not uninstall any system app by far.
Then i checked Titanium to see ROM storage, and im quite shocking that the ROM storage (2,34Gb) is only has 30,8Mb free :crying:
I checked the other zen 2, same model, use by my friend, also rooted and i found that his phone has over 500+Mb free storage from the ROM storage (2,34Gb the same as mine).
Here is the picture of my phone's ROM storage >>> http://imgur.com/8s3lEd9

Since many system apps has updated to new version over playstore, i did not integrate them to system rom, i did not change any normal app to system app, but the ROM storage still get full ?
Please help me free some space on ROM storage, so i can push some useful app to system app and do a good back up.

This is my phone. I haven't had any problems with ROM storage:
Just curious, but what method did you use to apply your OTA?

Full wipe then flash full rom via TWRP. another method is adb sideload but i have never tried it.
Hi. Anyone know why latest OneUi 5.0 takes 70GB system storage?
I believe that system should take about 10-15GB like clear Android 13 (Mi9T Pro - 12GB, MiPad 5 - 16GB), but not 70.
Anyone know what is happening in the system directories?

Mine says 39gb so I think both are wrong
I have mine at 106GB, wiping cache didn't do anything.
Mine is extremely debloated, I wonder if that has anything to do with mine being so low comparatively...

I have the standard A13 ROM from Samsung (not debloated) and it's 40GB.
~63 Gb after the last uodate
19 gb after december update
everyone with more than 25 gb sistem files please try file guardian GL module to clear old android sistem files

Tempus Fugit
I trust the OS. As long as I have a lot of free space, I don't care how much the system takes.
Is there another vesy to remove old system files? Why are they there, short of a system recovery?

I tried cleaning my internal storage a while ago and noticed my system storage increased to 110GB, lmao.
Update on this: I did a factory reset to see if it'll do anything.
From 111GB, it went down to 38GB, but after completely restoring all my apps, files and everything, it went back up to 58GB. Not bad considering I freed up 50GB+.
I suspect the reason my system files bloated like that is because I have a habit of flashing roms without wiping, especially when the beta came out.
