I've installed the stock 4.0.3 incremental on my i9023 when it came out in December.
Now, the thing is, when I go into Settings->Storage it says I have 300mb of app space left (internal memory, not sdcard). If I go into Manage apps, it shows the same thing, but if I wait a bit (~5-10 seconds), it suddenly tells me I have 480 mb left.
Now my question is which one is right? Anyone else ran into this?
I'm thinking that some services might not take into consideration the fact that some apps are actually on the sdcard, but that seems stupid to me, and possibly wrong.
Yes, it happens to me too. It fluctuates between 300mb for me within seconds. Weird.

Okay, it stopped for me after I did a hard reset. Now the phone flies at all tasks. No noticeable lag, no more launcher restarting after using an app. No more 0.00 ram. I'm glad I did a hard reset.
Full disclosure: I unlocked the boot loader and rooted. Also installed wallet. Everything else was restored from Google servers.

Interesting. How's battery life after the hard reset?
I'll let you know within a couple days. I need a few days of normal usage.

I get 1-2 reboots a day. A couple lock ups happen too. Anyone else? Is it normal?

It's definitely not normal. Try wiping fresh and installing only necessary apps then test again. If the issue persists trade it in for a new Infuse.

My wife and I both get it on our two new Infuses. Mine pretty much happens when I am browsing... It will lock up vibrate a few times and basically reboot... Pretty frustrating... And I don't think wiping it clean will help since this happen on both of our phones

Are you all rooted? Changed any apps? Made any tweaks or all stock?
I've had my Infuse for a week now and it's been great....no reboots of any kind. No real bugs to complain about, though I have noticed it can lag quite a bit when looking at mms'.

The vibrating is force closing. sounds like an app to me. did you and your wife both in stall the same apps? try factory rest on just one to test. BEWARE. take your external SD out. the facotry reset, wipes that too.

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Problem with restarts had been referred to SD cards. It is not always relevant, as such behaviour used to happen even on card-free phones. My problems started just after update to Mango, what made phone practically unusable.
I tried and seems succesfully solved problem in following way:
- connect phone to Zune
- click on phone, then settings
- choose RESERVED SPACE position
- change with slider from default 1% to 20%
- apply, disconnect
My phone, with Micro SD, stopped crazy behaviour, f.ex. during making photo, using apps. So far so good.
So maybe, either Samsung or MS had screwed up default settings of phone and use of ROM/RAM upon processes.
Solution can be applicable to Focus S and Omnia 7 too.
Good luck!

WTF...... ? No. Mod.. I think you should close this..
I am using an unrooted edge and have a problem. Shot a minute video and then tried to email it. As soon as I tried the phone sent a message that the storage was low. It suddenly dropped 50mb. I deleted the email which was in the to be sent folder and I deleted the video and the memory didn't come back. This is the second time this happened. Several months ago I had the same problem and had to reset the phone to get the storage right. I really hate to have to install all the apps again and this time I am asking for help?
Any ideas? I have read that there is an HTC email memory bug? But couldn't find a fix or not sure that this is the same problem.
Thank

An EDGE??? Well this is the EVO Shift forum. But you can check and make sure your Email, and attachments are set to go the SD Card. Also you can go into the actual app under settings and clear Cache, and clear Data. Then reboot, see if that helps.

Are you referring to media hub? If so, you can freeze or uninstall it.
Wow, this just jumped up for me as well. For the last day and a half my battery life has been brutal. This morning I'm down 16% in 45 min. despite not using my phone.
Looks like two apps are the culprits: Media and Media Server. Can anyone tell me how I can determine what is forcing these to run?
I thought I could correlate it to installing a free Amazon talking book, 'cause after installing it this weekend my media server never seemed to shut off and I had to reboot to kill it. But I uninstalled the app last night with no improvement.

Looks like some have had success removing all media files from their SD cards. Doing this piecemeal sounds pretty daunting to me - seems like every app folder and subfolder has at least images in it. Think I'll wait til next time I flash to start fresh. If this battery drain keeps up it will probably be in the next couple hours

Everything else seems to work fine for me. This is driving me crazy. I formatted my SD card, but no improvement. Media Server continues to run. I then wiped once, but still it's running. Been running Silver's ICS for a week with no issues at all, then this started two days ago.
Next up I'm gonna wipe 3x, then dalvik wipe, then reflash. ARRRRGH!

Have you tried moving everything off of your emmc (internal sd) to your computer? Then reboot. I had a problem with media scanner doing that. I take it you never used the Odin one click?

Haven't used Odin on this SR (it's a two-week old replacement). I've only used Odin in the past to remove root. I'm at a loss here. I've formatted my ext. SD, wiped my phone numerous times, flashed 3 different ROMs today, and restored every app one-by-one so that I don't restore the data. Still media server runs like a top.
Is there a way to use Odin that's faster than removing root and starting over? I gotta fix this - I can't last 4 hours on a battery.

I know what you mean. Have you tried running fix permissions in rom manager? You have to install busybox from the market first, though.

Just finished fixing permissions and rebooted. I'm only 7 minutes into the battery monitor, but media server is still running over 50% of drain. Sigh, guess a trip to Odin is in order.
Huh. I was having a similar problem, and moving all the files from the internal sd card to my computer fixed it. And then I read somewhere that fix permissions would work too. Sorry I couldn't be more of a help. Good luck!

I wasnt even doing anything. My phone was just sitting there and I had not even downloaded 1 app yet. It was right after the flash.
Go to System settings > data usage. You can move the bars to specify a time period and it will tell you what ate up your data during that time.

I pushed it off my bed and it fell 1 foot. 1FOOT. and now everything is lagging for some reason. Even after a factory reset on CM10.1 and downloads are about half the speed now. I am extremely pissed now and I don't think I'm going to buy a Samsung tablet anymore in the future. Any reasons for the lag? Could it be related to my internal memory only having 6GB left? I have a 16GB model.

Bump, this is extremely pissing me off! The factory reset not working probably means it goes deeper than that. I don't care if I have to reset EVERYTHING, this lag is really making me want to smash the tablet against the wall.

Try reflashing the stock rom, wiping everything... maybe there's an internal hardware problem.
