One of the things that bug me about the sensation is the ridiculous amount of internal memory it has, i now we'll be using the sd card most of the time, but i cannot stop wondering how is htc gonna do to fit the whole filesystem on 1 gb of internal memory? i currently have an inspire 4g and even using a rom without the at&t bloatware i only have available 1.2 gb of the internal memory's 4 gb
I'm pretty sure the 1gb is just for apps. Then system stuff has its own partition, then some left over for user storage

It has 4GB internal memory, of which 1gb can be accessed by the user
I'm pretty sure it has 1gb, the evo3d has 4.
For what I know there will be 550mb free, there should be a video showing it.

The evo 3d has 1 gig of memory 3 inaccessible to the user. The g2 had the same so did the my touch 4g same as always with HTC. They always had 4 gig rom.

Yes, but they also have 4gb rom on the spec sheet. Or 1.x gb accessible to user. The sensation only has 1gb rom according to specs.

I honestly doubt that HTC has 1 gig rom only alone since we actually have 1 gig accessible to the user. That already makes 2. The spec sheet is wrong on that aspect every one thought that g2 had 4 gigs of space but it only had 1 usable by us.

You might be right but every phone on the htc site has the physical/ total memory on the spec sheet. For example the desire has 512mb accordion to spec, well that is not the free space accessible to the user. I highly doubt this is any different for the sensation.
Also a Dutch tech site wrote, after a hands on at mwc, that the free memory was 550mb with a total memory of 1gb.

The g2 does have a 4gig internal chip same as the sensation. But because of the way the chip is set up and way files are stacked it basically is a 2gig but read and writes faster. So there is 2gig total basically but radio and system pretty leave roughly 1 gig. No big deal though.

You can look here : http://www.htc.com/us/products/sensation4g-tmobile#tech-specs
It says : "768 MB RAM, 4 GB Internal Storage (1 GB user addressable)"
I think that 1 Go for apps (+ legal App 2 Sd) and the 8 Go microSD are widely enough.

Now that's more like it! , thanks!
Damn, moving from 16GB internal (Vibrant) to 1GB internal is going to be a pain, but I'll handle it.
Vodafone uk confirm 4gig & 1gig user.

But even the 16gb internal vibrant wasn't true app installable since it was 16 internal sdcard. Vibrant only truly used 2gb for apps.
That said, when I dropped my POS Vibrant for a G2, I was disappointed by only having 1.13gb internal for apps, but I've never gone above 500mb, that's roughly 170 apps which is nuts for a phone anyway. Lol, I'd rather have the 1gb of ram that everyone else its getting.

What class 10 or lower sdcards have people found to pack a punch and also be reliable? Please state your read/write speeds and of course what size it is. Thinking about purchasing a new one. Also how is the 32gb adata class 10? Anybody use this one?
Trancend 16gb class 6
Read 14.6mb
Write 7.6mb

I had a G2x with a class 10 SD card. The phone ayt times would run super sluggish and slow.
I finally took it out and from there the phone wasn't getting laggy anymore.
Now my question is, what have been your experience with your SD card on the Sensation?
My is a class 10 16 Gb Patriot MicroSD card.

I bought the Class 2 32GB Sandisk when it first came out around early/mid 2010. This was for my previous N1.
For about 4 months or so I've been sporting Lexars Class10 32GB.
Really can't even tell much of a difference however I did run many SD speed tests and all fell short of claims for read and write.
I just never tested the Sandisk but maybe 1 day when I'm interested.
it's well known the one xl has very limited storage. with 16gb to start, 2.34 gb to internal (1.95 gb available on mine), 9.93 gb phone (821mb available on mine), and the other 4~ish gb ????, i only have room for another app or two a few pictures and a few songs. anybody come up with a good solution for this? other than cloud storage? i like music... A LOT, so i prefer to keep it on the phone to save data and battery. and i like a little freedom with my apps and pics.
Wrong forum. This belongs in Q&A, not Development.

Cloud storage. Mind you I have nearly 600 pics and 3 gigs of music and I still have 4 gigs left.plus all my app are installed.

If I were a huge media user I'd get one of those goflex wireless drives.
Here a link they sound awesome, but I wouldn't use that much space, cloud works good for me.

Also airstash looks promising for half the price and add your own SD Card.

it's a damned shame that it looks like OTG won't work for us since the USB port doesn't supply power.
Is it possible to do a hardware mod for an sd card, the 10gig on my att one x is barely cutting it, but I have a class 10 32GB from my evo 3d I want to use, but I don't know if it can be done. I've looked for teardowns but I don't see enough detail. Any help is appreciated

USB otg is probably the simplest way to use an sdcard now that ROMs support it
