13.24 GB does that include application too? or if that's internal sd card how much free memory you get for application?
On android 3.0+ there is no longer separate partitions.
You have the full space for your apps and app data.
the /sdcard is emulated on the internal memory for app data and apps can use the full 5-13GB of storage space.
Hi
I know this is a noob question but im really curious with other peoples experiences. Which rom has the most available free usable space after fresh install? The stock MEA I noticed has about 8.5GB - 8.6GB available usable space as noted from Application Manager.
I also use foldermount and its awesome.

buddy any custom mod can release space from /system not from internal memory.

Thanks for the quick reply.
So Im assuming /system and internal memory are two separate partitions then? And you can remove bloatware from the /system partition giving more space there, but you cant really do anything to the internal memory (where "most" the games/apps you download from market go)?
I say most because Ive noticed some apps go in /system like "tapped out Simpsons game".
16 GB phone - 12.6 GB usable when I did a fresh SD wipe = 3.4 GB to be accounted for...
Please don't tell me that the Android OS is taking up 3.4 GB...
On the 16gb version you should have about 12.9gb free after a complete wipe.

You should have 12.9gb. That's how the position is made. For system, dev, cache and so on. Not all of it is used up. Some free space is still left depending on what system apps you have, how much goes into cache and so on..

Does this make sense to anyone? My device shows 1.08gb free space, but I only have about 7.5gb in occupied space. What's screwed up here?
Its a 16gb Nexus 4 running CM 10.2, the latest nightly.

4gb is allocated to the system.

Did you do a factory reset before going to cm10?
EDIT: Can you please take a screenshot of settings-storage. It should look similar to this
How many nandroids do you currently have?
I have the 32GB version D802, rooted, with pardus HD rom v6. SD card total space is 24.84. Is there any way I can increase the total space available on the device? I know you're not supposed to get the whole 32GB, depending on the filesystem, however I think losing almost 8GB of space is ridiculous. For example, the 32GB version of the IPAD mini leaves you with 28GB of user accesible space.
Yea but iPad is not the same as android the os is themed highly compared to stock aosp and takes about 4-5gb then there's bloat and android reserves about 2gb to install apps from play store

I uninstalled many bloatware/system apps using titanium backup pro and it doesn't increase the size of the storage. I think it has to do with the partitioning of the storage, which 7.2, where all system file is stored, with some allowance so that if you manage to full the storage the phone will not die. I'm just guessing. LOL :angel:

For whatever reason LG decided to set up this phone. The way they did that wont do any. The system partition will stay overly large even if you do use a smaller Rom.

Yep. It is annoying. Strange having my old 32 GB galaxy nexus having the full 28 GB but my far newer G2 having only 24.

First of all: Phone's tottal memmory is 32 000 000 000 bytes which devided by 1024 = 31*250*000 KBytes, which /1024 = 30*517 MBytes, which /1024 = 29.8 GBytes TOTTAL Formated space !
Free Space for user is ~ 24.8 GB
Which means that ALL the partitions in phone's memmory (apart form SDCARD partition) combined are ~ 5 GB
In this 5 GB you have ROM (~2.5 GB), Bootloader, Recovery partition...
But, not all the partitions are full with data, they all have some free space in them, but that free space is not populated to phone tottal free memmory because it is not accessible by the user
Just found this thread about resizing the system partition. Kind of a taboo subject i guess. No one is giving a positive answer.
My very first Android device, the NOOKcolor 8GB, 1st gen, so technically, 'bout 7GB, they reserved 5GB for system and data partitions, left us 2GB for end-user storage.
Yeah, enjoy that.
Good thing was there was a way to re-partition.
For the G2, I haven't heard anyone mentioned about how to.

IOS is different to android. They have different apps and config that contribute to system space of the phone.
