Which Storage is this system info refering to?
My phone I have
Program: 167MB/1.87GB
Personal data: 10.91MB/127MB
Internal SD Card: 1.94GB/5.78GB
External SD Card: 5.37GB/15.44GB
You dont have any storage which 274Mb unless this is refering to your usuable ram in that case 274 seems too low should be 304 and if only showing 2mb just means u have loads of open app and could be worth closing some that you aint using.
I'm a bit confused about this too.
Quick System Info says I have 0.97 MB free out of 276 MB total.
What exactly is System storage and how to free it up a little?
Enable Chuck Norris mode in Titanium Backup and remove some of the Samsung apps. I removed some live wallpapers and Widgets. Also used Android Mate and deleted some of the csc folders leaving only XEU folder. Freed up lots of space for me.
Pit513 offers more storage space in the /system folder. However not sure if you can use this pit with other region roms. Note pit 513 is used for DX rom, probably due to crap bloatware in this region.
Anyone willing to try?

I have yet to unlock the bootloader and have decided to see what happens first. But i did root my play.
But as per the title, how much space is to little.
So the space i'm referring to is the 400 mb of internal storage.
I have remove alot of apps and ringtones to free up space. Well i can't seem to get more than 60 mb of free space on the internal flash drive.
So my question for everyone is have you been able to free up more space? and if so how did you do it.
Oh yeah, i have also moved all my apps to the sd card, well all the apps that thr app lets me.
Search & read my friend, this topic has been run over more times than a flat cat.
For starters any apps or data you remove from /system/ will not effect your internal storage, because it is a diffrent partition to the /data/ partition, the latter being your internal storage, i have 300 apps on my fone and just under 100mb and we do not get 400mb of internal storage, that is just the total, after a clean install you get about 230-240mb

Hi all,
Just after installing custom rom aokp on my phone, the /system was showing free space of 4 mb only (w/o installation of any additional apps). To install Google Now , there should be free space of atleast 90mb on /system.
Therefore, in a bid to increase the space, i got a 2gb external card. In one of the articles on net, it showed increasing the space on sd card (through SD card partitioning via Rom Manager). I though that this would make my EXT-SD a part of the internal storage and help increase the space on /system. However, after following the procedure, the space on my internal storage reduced from 1.7 gb to 480 mb while USB storage increased from 5.7 gb to 7.4 gb.While it did nothing to the EXT-SD.
Now can anyone please tell me a way to Reverse it and also how to increase the space on /system to install Google Now.
Apart from this i tried APP2SD to make space on internal storage (as it mentions "MOVE TO EXTERNAL SD") it also does not move the apps to EXT-SD, rather it moves to USB Storage w/o creating space on /system.
Please help.

Hi,
I'm using SUNDAWG LEGENDARY TBD EDITION "STOCK" ROM.
From 2 days im getting notification "This device is running low on free disk space(...)" when opening some apps.
I don't know whats going on. Last time i had this i reinstall this ROM, because that was impossible to open any app, even dialer.
I have 102MB free on my memory.
12GB free on SD card.
1.2GB free on Internal Storage.
so...
whats going on?
How to fix this?
I need to have my phone usesfull, I'm far from home, i cant reinstall ROM now, and using phone as navigation Whithout the phone I will have a lots of problems to come back to home :laugh: (not funny!) :laugh:
Whatvere, please help me =^-^=
Android has a restriction within it which limits further downloads and (any writes to memory) when the remaining space gets below 10% of that which is available.
I agree, this can be very frustrating. Especially for NativeSD users with a 32Gb card, a 10Gb Ext4 partition and a few NativeSD roms installed. When the ext4 partition gets 90% full, no roms can be used. Despite there being a whole 1Gb of space remaining.
There is a possible solution here which I haven't had a chance to try out yet, involving reducing the 10% restriction to 5 or 2% for example. But this would only be a temporary solution for your case, until you fill up the new available limit.
In your present situation (away from home), I would try to delete any unwanted apps.
A more permanent solution could be to do a nandroid backup, then trying to increase the ext4 partition via recovery.
Hope this helps, and I hope I haven't misunderstood your problem.
Hi, I have same problem with low disk space either I have lots of mb free ram. Now I use clean master and it really work. It is able to clean ram without reboot and low disk message is gone. Second thing is to move all apps into SD card.

It removes notification because when you use clean master it cleans your cache, which is also if i'm not wrong part of "data" partition. So, it frees you some amount of your data storage and msg is gone until you refill it with using apps.
Hello everybody, i have a i9500 phone, with crash rom installed..
Here is the question,
In the storage section,
All Storage is 8,8
Apps are 2.9 GB
Photos, videos are 125 MB
Audio is 496 KB
Downloads is 114 MB
And the others are 44 and 70
But it says usable storage is 1,09
As you see, usable storage should be at least 4-5 gb,
Why is it like this and what should I do?
Tried flashing other roms like cm11 and phoenix, but no help.
Wiping data doesn't help either.
What should I do?

U can go check in settings -> more -> storage -> misc and see there can b thumbnail files with 100s mb of size u can delete that. Its not going to harm your real photos. Plus if u hv a backup there like Titanium or nandroid u can delete that too to increase space
If none works
Thn there is always external SD

I have same problem. I calculate and all files 4 GB Capacity 8.9 GB it means around 5 GB free space. But it shows 200 MB free space. I could not understand why.

Did you guys solve this?
Anyone know how to fix this?
I was on custom rom, I had this problem. Now i'm back to stock but still 2 GB missing.
Solution
Alright finally fixed it. With ES file explorer I went to mnt > shell > 0 > Android > obb. Apparently, there were 2 game files that should've been deleted but for some reason they were there.
So yeah whatever it is, it can be found with root file explorers and can be deleted, you just gotta search.
Worth noting: if you've ever made a backup via recovery (cwm), it will eat up a good 3-4gb.

Yes but it would be seen in the storage info under miscellaneous category. The problem here was that some of the memory was missing without any info as to what's using it.

No, it doesn't show up on misc. Titanium backup will be listed, but not if you backed up using recovery. The back up I'm referring to is of the phone in its entirety which can be between 3-6gb.
Hello |
After installing custom rom , and making a nandroid backup of original rom (without app installed) , I was left with 800 mb
free on the internal memory.
How can i gain more memeory?
To flash again and wipe internal storage as well ?
Thanks.
Your backup is probably taking up significant space, possibly several gigabytes. Look in the TWRP directory and copy the backups off the device and delete them from the device (or better yet, just backup to an SD card). Otherwise to go Settings - Storage and tap Internal Storage and see what is taking up the space, and delete as necessary, pay attention to Cached data space, that can easily grow to several gigabytes as well, tapping that will prompt you delete all app cache data which is generally safe to do.
Will wiping internal storage help? lol... yes, of course it will if your space is used up by files in internal storage.
Thanks
Even after moving backup to external sd. There is only 4 GB free, out of 16 GB. App is about 2 GB .
It seems strange ........
