Can anyone tell me why my internal memory doesn't tell me exactly how much memory I have? I keep deleting more apps but the numbers not changing..

I really want to get the charge. But with the internal space being only what 2gb. How many apps can u install before u run into problems. I know u can have a 16 gb card. But all apps u can't move to sd. Even if u do some portion is still left on the internal. Well any feedback will help me make the move thanks.
You would have to be insane to fill that much space. I have 150 user apps installed and have 700 megs free. I store all my apps internally. Also, you can get the charge for free on amazonwireless.com

Out of the 1.15gb available for apps, i have used less than half of it with lots of large games. I keep them in internal memory because it is faster than sdhc 2x.

You can send all your apps to sdcard anyways

How can I move an app to my external SD card rather than the internal 16 GB storage. I cannot find a way to do that. When I choose move to SD card is only goes to the internal 16 GB.

Its because the phone has internal SD that mounts as mnt/sdcard which is normally external on phones that don't have internal SD storage.
So basically, the expanded slot is mainly for files and media, correct?

yeah, but with the amount of internal storage available on these devices, i see NO benefit to moving apps to sd. that was a benefit with older phones, but it seems all the newer models coming out have ample room for app installs. apps2sd seems like a worthless hassle to me any more.
I have to use apps2sd because the Market seems to want to default all my installs to the system storage rather than what it calls the usb storage...am I missing something here? My Captivate defaulted to the internal storage and I would often move into the external sd. My Infuse loaded all apps on the external sd card. This phone seems to go to the very limited system storage options (only like 1.3 gig free). So I feel like I have no choice but to continue using APPS2SD.

What apps are you running that you need THAT much internal storage for apps?
Samsung typically leaves 2gb for internal app storage, the 16gb internal SD for media ect..
I've got well over 150 apps on my phone and haven't come close to using my internal storage.
Well, I need more than the 2GB of internal storage but not much more. Just not used to the way this phone handled app storage compared to my past phones.

Give Link2SD a try; it's fantastic and allows you to move apps, one at a time or multiples (under menu button) to the ExternalSD card (plus it allows you to do so much more, see link above). It sees the External card as it should see it, an SD card that can have apps and data on it. App2SD doesn't give you a choice to move to the ExternalSD card, it only moves from phone to InternalSD and vice versa.
I'm not really sure if this is possible or how difficult it would be or if anyone else would care to do it, but is it possible to repartition the 16GB of the phone for it to allocate less memory for apps and more for music, photos, etc? Even if you ran out of app storage, you could just move some apps to SD storage right? Thanks!

App does not work since ICS release. Apps must run off internal. There are workarounds but more hassle than they are worth.
Not sure why someone would even need this feature in this day and age. It was only invented to deal with shortage of space before cell phones caught up with the times.

Download a file manager and start deleting what u don't need.

Download File Analyser from the play store and find out which files are hogging up the most space that aren't useful and delete.

Your phone shouldn't slow down "considerably" because of a full sd card... Are you rooted? Do u have anitivirus software? Av softwares are resource hogs and should be used temporarily and uninstalled after scans. If u are using a task killer or RAM manager, you will see adverse affects as well. What apps are running when you hold the home button to view currently running tasks?
If you still do believe it is a result of a full sd card, i like astro file manager. The stock file manager to delete sd contents should suffice though.

Also any games you don't use,uninstall them, that too take alot of space, as.videos take up a ton too.
