Hey guys,
I was looking at my device storage this morning to find out that Android OS takes a little over 7gb, is that normal?
I have a north american G4 + 32gb (XT1641) running stock 6.0.1.
See attached screenshot to know what I mean

Hello all,
I am not familiar with LG flashing.
Does a custom rom free up more internal storage on the phone?
If yes, only on AOSP/AOKP/MIUI roms or also on stripped stock roms?
I have a 16GB model with only 10GB available and it's almost 50% full with only some apps :s :silly:
No. Partitions stay the way they are. You might get some space on /system.
Thanks @Robogo i finally find the answer of this question !
So it will not increase to 12gb full use or smth?
Anyone care to make a screenshot?
Thx

I couldn't get you.
The basic thing us that the i950x (S4) is a phone which comes with 8.x GB than the usual 16 thing.
But only the i9500 has an option of flashing a new partition table and expanding the internal memory to 11GB.
When you flash the official rom .you see 16GB as storage is not possible.
Try checking it in the bottom most line of titanium backup or any other storage app
Rest upload a screenshot here too so that we can understand better.
My phone always displayed 9GB internal.
I've got my wife's X Play XT1625 running 6.0.1. I would expect maybe ~3GB reserved for system partition out of 16Gb, for such a barebones (clean) android rom. But on X Play, its whole 7 GB, leaving only about 9GB for user. Is this normal? Is this with everyphone or just mine?
Is it possible to reclaim more of that space? (root, custom rom?) Have anyone tried that?
I recently bought a used Lenovo A6000+. Using it for the first few hours did not reveal any major flaws. However, shortly afterwards I realized that the Phone used to switch off by itself when left unattended.
After verifying that my assumption is true, I proceeded to flashing the stock Lollipop ROM. I did so because I thought the problem was due to a flaw in the firmware. Plus, the 'About Phone' section in the Settings app showed clearly that my phone is a Lenovo A6000, with 8GB internal storage and 1GB RAM, while CPU-Z said that there is 16GB internal and 2GB of RAM, which tells that it is an A6000+.
The Lollipop ROM is worse than what I had anticipated. It lags like hell on the device, and is filled top to bottom with bloatware. Plus, the problem didn't get rectified even a bit. Worst, it started switching off even more regularly, and it wouldn't start unless I took out the battery and put it back in again.
If someone has devised a way of getting past this problem, be kind enough to mention it below.
@techfreak13, I don't know what's causing this issue but I can tell you that the stock Lollipop was a nightmare. Either you stay with stock KitKat or you can flash any of the other various ROMs available for this device. But, do note, that if you want to move from Lollipop (or Marshmallow or Nougat) based to KitKat based ROMs or vice versa, you'll first need to flash the stock ROM only. Then only you can flash the custom ROMs. Also different versions of TWRP are needed to work with the Kitakt and the other Lollipop/+ ROMs. TWRP 2.8.6 no image is for Kitkat while the latest verion 3.1.0 can be used for Lollipop+ Android versions. Since there is no unified thread for all the mods and roms. You'll have to dig deep into the forums to get the links. Good Luck to you. I hope you'll be able to solve the problem.
I rooted a new Tab A7 T500 32gb using the latest Samsung rom and Magisk (image has a size of ~4.3g) but after completing the rooting, the available space on the tab is only 21gb, does the stock rom actually take up ~10g or does it sound like something is wrong?
