I don't know when this happened but my tablet is missing more then 3gb of avail memory (only shows 5.45gb total space which can't be right) Only thing i can remember that gave me the most trouble was trying to get ubuntu to work on the side with android using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=987740 only to find it was getting all sort of errors with the repositories so i ended up deleting it but still i know that seeing a few hundred meg to a gig is normal but a lil over 3gigs missing entirely something gotta be wrong x.x
Anyhelp out there since can't connect this to my mintbox netbook so i could check the partitions an make sure nothing is abnormal
Its totally normal, its what the Android team introduced with Honeycomb, universal storage, all 8GB a100s show 5 or so due to Android system etc.

well i feel like a dork now :x I have a captivate that has ICS on it an it shows 1.83gb used for internal an the remaining 13gb on the internal (16gb cappy) But sheesh lot of memory being used x.x
Ya just how it is. Thats why I have a 32gb sdcard in there for my videos and music. I leave the 5.45gb for apps only. And if I have games that require mass amount of data to be downloaded then I use GL to SD app so it stores those game data to sdcard. Root is required to use GL to SD though. With this setup I havent had the need to delete apps or even bloatware. I'm sure I have over 100 apps in mine.

Theres also a mod to make your SDcard as your internal. So basically the 5.45gb will act like an external drive while your SDcard will be your internal memory. But if you go this route might be good to have class4 card or higher.

I've been using the sd swapped since i got my tablet downgraded back to HC with ICS I was ending up using to much of internal storage with game data an other content.

I hear ya man thats why I'm still on HC till we get perm root. I have tried the SD swap but my 32 gb is almost full already so after I was all done I was left with about 2gb space. About the same if I just went with GL to SD so wasnt really worth going through all the trouble doing the sd swap. Plus I remove my SD card constantly so for my rom to be ran from it wouldn't be a good idea for me.
My 32 GB SD card is on its way, I never thought too much about music etc on my tablet seeing as my phone has 16 GB but now that I practically live with my tab, Daddy needs more space baby

i just flashed Cyanogenmod 10.1.0-rc2-d2tmo a couple days ago. my S3 has a 12 gig internal storage and I also have a 32 gig samsung class 10 SD card. So all the sudden I see a icon ive never seen before, and its prompting me that im running low on internal memory! This is confusing to me, Can anyone tell me a solution? Is my rom to big? Also, cant I move everything to my SD card, or would that not work? I put up a screenshot, maybe it can help. Any input would be much appreciated!

Try something like Disk Usage or My Storage Analyzer from the store. May help you hunt down wha exactly is eating up your space.

Hi,
With actulizaçao to 4.2.2 I stopped being able to move any application (even allowing) for storage telelmovel therefore have 25 Gb free on mobile phone that does not serve me for nothing, leaving the remaining 6 GB internal.
Climbed the problem to HTC where I say that this option has been removed from this version, which does not make any sense.
This also happens to you you guys or is just me??
I just have the mobile phone with 5 Gb busy leaving me 1 Gb of internal memory and 25 GB of memory of mobile phone that does not serve me for nothing because I can not move it to the aplications.
Please help!!!
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.
