This phone has 8GB of memory (or 16GB for the other model). Can anyone tell me if all of this space is available for application installation? (excluding the space required for the system files etc)?
I thought I read somewhere that only 1GB was available for application installation while the rest could be used to store normal files like on the SD Card. If it is entirely available for application installation then I'm probably ok not upgrading the memory card as 8GB is plenty big enough for what I need. Even if it is limited to 1GB for application storage, this is plenty big enough for what I need.
TIA
1.8GB free for applications installation in the Galaxy S.
I assume the rest is used for storage space of user files like an extension to the SD card?
Correct.... It's an ideal dumping ground for Photos, Music or whatever takes your fancy.
I'm confused, after the 1.8gb where is the other 6.2gb?
The ~6 gb are called Internal SD card or something similar, and is available as storage for music, pictures or whatever you want basically.
Are you aware that with Android 2.2 (froyo) applications will be installable onto the memory cards.
yeah i never really put much on to the onboard memory...i install my apps onto the storage card

Pray tell how you are managing to install to SD Card as to install to other than internal memory you need Froyo on your system.

Strictly speaking, developers need to update their application before it can be installed onto the SD Card. I'm guessing a lot of the less maintained applications won't be updated and thus won't be able to be installed on the SD Card.
Not many applications fall in this area but I'm sure people have a few apps that work as is and haven't been updated for ages.
Hello i use [JB][28-12-2012] CyanogenMod 10 for Motorola Milestone 2 (Android 4.1.2) this rom becomes slow milestone stock in a modern and fast!
but I have a problem, I noticed that the photos taken, it applications can be installed in the internal memory. It is not seen as memory archive. Why is that? Confirm?
Usually on the smartphone's internal memory is seen as external memory of the masses "sdcard" does not happen here and therefore does not create the folder "Android / App"; problem of the phone or the ROM?

I'm using the same rom too, and according to command "df" most of the 8g internal mermory is dedicated to /data. Guess there are some limitations on hardware for not allowing mount the internal memory as an internal "sdcard" directory. Some one can confirm this?

From what I've read some phones doesn't have this option as google locks it up, only some Motorola and Htc phones has this option. While on Samsung, they've added this option on S7 and S7edge.
So not sure if the Dev's working on this or they removed it from the port, then that I do not know.

Thank you to communicate
I bought a 128GB memory card while I was using it as internal storage, but this option is not available.
please help
AFAIK Samsung disabled android's adoptable storage function on its phonres. Were you using your sd card as inernal storage on another phone?

Yes, HTC allows that. Samsung removed that option because of the changes they made to their custom kernel.
What aboot the "force allow apps on external" setting in dev options? Wouldn't this allow apps to be installed on the sdcard first?

I think this should work
There is a build.prop for it that is off in stock. Regardless there's nothing stopping you from doing this as root so rooted the answer is definitely yes. As for rootless I don't think it's possible unfortunately.
