Can some tell me why the sum of my storage is lower than the amount of the total that is on top of the screenshot?

Hi,
in my struggle to free as much ram as possible (by moving to storage/SD every single bit i could) i was able to reduce the (static) RAM i'm using to 1.68MB, even retaining all my needed application (in SD) and two Today plugin in RAM.
With an available total RAM size of 57.41MB, i should be able to use 57.41-1.68 MB of dynamic RAM.
The problem is WM won't let me to do it.
To free more dynamic RAM, i should move to the left the static-dynamic memory slider in Start->Setting->System->Memory BUT whenever i try to lower it under about 9mb, WM reset the slider to it's original position (about in the middle of the bar).
This way i'm forced to allocate more than 10MB (9 + 1.68) to static RAM even if i'm using ONLY 1.68MB and i'm not going to use anymore.
Is there a way to AVOID the S.O. resetting the slider or, at least, to let me assign the static RAM no more than 3 or 4MB???
What's the point in relocating every program, dll, htm and so on to SD card if i'm still obliged to waste 10MB of precious RAM???
PLS help me!!!
Bye bye,
Isidoro
I think you will be able to further lower the Storage memory when your Program memory reached about 0.75 of its allocated slot.
Have you ever try using almost all your allocated Program memory, and see if you can reduce the Storage memory even further? I'd like to see if it can be done.

There isn't a way to reduce this value? (0.75?)
Hi!
Just a small question:
After installing all my apps my space on internal memory, there is only about 7MB space left...
My question: How much should be free, for a fast device?

Are you talking about the program memory or storage memory? If storage memory, a few mb is good for operating (such as temp files). For program memory, I usually try to get above 20 Mb
why is the storage capacity is diffrent from devic to other?
for ex. my device has 141 MB and my friende device has 190 MB
the ammount of storage memory shown as 'free' depends on the size of the rom you are using, and also what programs you have installed to the phone memory,
He means the storage memory not the program memory ... we want to know the internal memory storage capcity of the Leo !! so we can judge where to install app and games, in device mem or SD mem ... any answer
lol, oh is THAT what he meant, oh, ok.
Right, well the storage memory is 512meg, however a good chunk of that is taken up by the ROM when it installs, and roms are different sizes (anywhere from 175 - 250 meg) .
Also, when you install an app, and choose to install to device instead of sd card, it installs into whatever is left over after the rom has been installed. .
And that is why the 'storage' memory shows around 250 or so total before adding programs.
Clever ****.
thanks but I can't keep on with your sophisticated info about the total storage capcity of the device ... let me tell u what mine is : when I go to settings, then SD card and Phone storage, the Total storage is 194.55 from the first day of using it ... now after about 1 week, I installed a huge amount of apps, themes and games in dev memo and SD card memo, the total storage is the same ... ? but my colleagues total storage capcity is different ( ex 140 MB ) ... shouldn't be the same total capcity in all the devices ? keeping in mind that we have different roms in each our 3 devices ...
Thanks for your help
the total storage memory of a blank hd2 is 512 megabytes. when you load the rom and it installs windows and any programs and extras (facebook app, the example photos and music, etcetera) they all go into that 512 megabytes. whatever is left is the available storage memory.this is then used for programs you instal (ignore storage card) your contacts, temporary files, everything. if you get two completely untouched t mobile hd2s and compare the total storage they should be just about identical, but that will probably be different to an untouched o2 hd2.
when chefs cook roms they often take out lots of stuff.(the photos for instance) so a t mobile phone that has been flashed with a new rom will have a different total storage than thee original.
most people haver roughly 200 to 300(broadly speaking) megabytes storage available.
is there a way to change the internal storage?
I think depend on ROM that you use. Each ROM not same free space.
Hi guys, I've just discovered that a lot of my internal space is missing. When formatted I think the phone has 26GB available and now it says I have 7GB left which is impossible. All my photos and videos are on my SD card, when I select all the folders on Device Storage including the hidden ones it says they're a total of 6GB. My apps are 12GB total but 5 of those are from Spotify which is in my SD card also. Also the games' data is included in those 6GB stated earlier and they are around 3GB. So by my calculations I've got to have around 16GB of free space, not 7. Can you help me identify the problem? Thanks.
Did you ever figure this out?
Ascend XT2 H1711
when i go to settings and memory capacity management, the part where you see all the used internal memory capacity, in android7 i see this:
16gb total internal memory capacity:
+Free space: 6.40GB
+firmware: 6.83GB
+apps: 1.3GB
besides those 3 things wont add to 16gb, i only have whatsapp installed and took some photos that are 20meg in total.
So what is going on with this phone?
how come firmware is 6.40gb ?? that is crazy , its eating up a lot of space. What is firmware? Android7 takes that much space?
Because of this, the phone is very limited as have only 6.4gb of space left and practically havent installed anything from the app store.

If you use an app like diskinfo in the play store you'll see the full partition layout of the phone
cache = 1.2gb
system = 2.4gb
data = 9.2gb
swap = 1gb
other = ??? (this is what runs the phone and is mostly firmware)
