16 or 32 gb? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so i bought this LG G2 and the seller claims it's 16gb, but the imei.info site shows it's a 32 gb model, so i think maybe he flashed a 16gb firmware to it. Or the imei.info site is wrong. What do you think guys? Is there a way to know for sure the size of this particular model?

What's shown under Settings--> Storage--> Total space?

10.62 gb
But as i can remember if you flash a 16gb firmware into a 32gb it will show that aswell

Is it a Hong Kong Xoom? This sounds like an issue with Hong Kong Xooms that have a different partition structure than all the others. There is a fix, if so.

Can i install CM on korean glaxy s4

I know you guys have probably have this question asked a million times but I have no where else to go. So yesterday i bought a fake galaxy s4 gt-9500 very cheap i think it was korean. It had a dual core 1 ghz cpu 512 mb ram and a 5 MP camera. Unfortionetally the stupid phone wasn't able to read any kind of SD card. It has only 12MB of internal storage. I couldn't even install youtube so i needed an external storage. I assume that this has something to do with the software because it had an SD card slot. So my question is. Will i be able to flash a custom CM ROM on a korean clone and when i do will it read my SD card because when i tried the root it the bootloader menu was in chinesse language.
Thank you

What about this guide it shows how to root clone. Can I apply this on my one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1s801ozuuk

can I safely update to kitkat?

I have a rooted n9005 that I bought from Brazil and use in the USA on Tmobile. It has 4.2 on it now, but I want to update to kitkat. Can I flash any version of 4.4.2, or will it turn on the region lock if I flash the wrong version? Thanks in advance.

If ur device is SM-N9005, it is an international unlock version of LTE Note 3.
As long as u flash N9005 firmware, u should be fine. Just check ur storage, is it 16gb or 32 gb. U have to flash the correct one. Yours I believe is 32 gb, only hongkong 9005 is 16gb.
And jdomadia is correct, N9005 never comes with 4.2 since day 1. I assume is typo error on ur post.

Thanks! You are both correct: it is 4.3. It is 32 GB. I will do N9005VJUEND1 since it is from Brazil and appears to have no phone company connected.

My 32 GB MX5 is flashed as a 16 GB one (it was sent in this way)

Good night. It's my first comment at XDA, so hello to everybody.
I bought this phone, a 32 GB ROM MX5, when I received it I could see that I had only about 10 GB of free storage. I thought they sent me a 16 GB one, but asking in some forums they could see that I actually have a 32 GB. They suggested that my mobile phone was flashed with a 16 GB partition table.
I've read similar troubles with other phones at this forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50790181#post50790181
but I don't know if I can solve it with an MX5.
Here (http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?p=21441749#post21441749) they suggest me to delete the partition of 16 GB and restore it with fdisk adb. But without the released bootloader I don't know if I shoud try it. I would like to do it if there is a way to recover the mobile phone if it goes wrong, but I am a rookie at informatic and I don´t know if it will work.
The first I did was a hard reset and a fabric restoration but the storage remained the same.
Don't know what to do: send it in return to China and ask for another one (and be about 1,5 months whitout mobile phone), or keep it, ask to refund the difference between a 32 GB and a 16 GB phone and wait until the bootloader is released to try to solve it.
What do you think is it better? The bootloader may not be released or it can take several months... and when it is released, I don't know if it will solve the problem.
Thanks in advance
By the way, Happy New Year.

Galaxy S7 Edge (Verizon) shows only 16GB ram!

I just got a a Galaxy S7 Edge a few weeks ago an it is only showing 16GB or ram. I thought all of the S7 Edges were supposed to have 32GB ram?!?...am I doing something wrong?

Hello,
You wanted to say ROM and not RAM, there's a lot of difference between ROM and RAM , every S7 edge has 4GB of RAM and it can have minimum 32GB of ROM , it's not possible for your phone to have 16GB of ROM.
Grettings,
SwitchDeath
I think you misunderstand RAM and other memory types.
Probably you are referring to your phone's storage capacity.
There are the specs of S7 Edge https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s7_edge-7945.php
It has 4 gb ram and the Internal storage varies depending on the model, from 32gb to 128gb.
Gentlemen, thanks. I originally meant internal storage which reads 16.00 GB, sorry about the error in terminology. Is the internal storage within the specs of the S7 Edge? Thanks, in advance, Rich.
Go to settings-> device maintenance-> storange and check inside the big circle the storage you have. It should write something like 18 GB /32 GB where the 18 is your remaing capacity and the 32 is your total.
I have this problem as well, not sure why it shows 16GB, I have a 930A flashed to 930U

you need to go to recovery and do a factory reset after flashing a tar.md5 as the stock samsung img automatically assumes that your device has 16gb of storage on every image and factory resetting will allow the system to allocate the actual amount of internal storage the device has.
its ROM not RAM,I have a docomo version also is 16G rom
