[Q] How to repartition a phone's internal memory? - General Questions and Answers

I have a Cherry Mobile Flare (a clone of India's Karbonn A9+ mobile phone). It's a very affordable smartphone with good specs. Priced at just Php 4,000 (roughly, 99 USD), it boasts the following specs:
ICS 4.0.4
1.2GHz Dual-core Snapdragon Processor
5MP Rear camera
1.3MP Front-camera
512MB RAM
4.0 Screen Size
4GB Internal Memory
MicroSD slot
Dual Sim (3G/GSM Only)
Wifi Direct
Gyroscope, etc...
My only problem with the said device is how it's partitioned. It gives 512MB for apps (/data). It can be adequate enough for some, and most would just use Apps2SD or something similar, but I'm looking for a way to re-partition it. I also own a Nook Color, and there was a CWM-flashable zip that we can use to partition it's internal memory. I hope there's also a way for me to do it on this phone.

[Q] Samsung galaxy S 2

What do you think about this awsome phone,
I mean, it has 1.2 dual core CPU, 1Gb RAM, build in 16GB and 32GB storage expandable with micro SD, 8 Mpx camera, 1050p recording,
The cel is like a mini lap top.

[Q] Can somebody esplain the memory specs to me?

I have a Droid A855. The main problem with it is keeps giving me low memory errors. Now the specs claim that it has 256Mb internal memory.
The Droid X says:
TI OMAP 1GHz processor with Dedicated GPU
8GB Internal memory for emails, texts, and apps
2 GB microSD card pre–installed on–device — up to 32GB microSD supported
Is this 8Gb the same memory that the 256Mb of the 855 is? Is there really that much of a jump? This is the one I'm interested in.
But, the Samsung Fascinate is on a 1 day sale for the same price as a refurb Droid X - $99. It says:
1GHz Cortex A8 Hummingbird Processor
2GB Internal memory
16 GB microSD card pre–installed on–device — up to 32GB microSD supported
I am still leaning toward the Droid X even though a refurb. WWYD?

Droid X - 8 GB internal memory + you can put a 32GB SDcard in it = 40 GB is the maximum you can get.
Samsung Fascinate - 2GB internal memory + you can put a 32GB SDcard in it = 34GB
What is internal memory?
Internal memory is used to store data that is used by the system at startup and to run various types of programs such as the operating system. Typically, internal memory is contained on small microchips that are either attached or connected to the computer's/phone's motherboard. Memory can range from a couple of megabytes to several gigabytes. On an Android device the internal memory will be used by the operating system and applications. You can move some apps to the SD-card, but it's always nice to have lots of internal memory. I have an HTC Desire HD with 1,5GB internal memory and i have about 1GB free space left after using it for six month
Thank you. But what I'm after is how much memory the X offers for system processes. In other words, the A855 offers 256Mb, what does the X offer? I know it isn't the entire 8Gb, but some part of it.
I don't know. Someone with the X will have to give you the answer I recommend you ask in the general section in the Droid X forum.

[Q] Android tablet specs????

Hello,
I have a tablet GOClever TAB T75 and I have a strange caracteristics and specifications about it.
Android OS 4.0.3/4GB flash memory/512MB RAM
Hardware is:
Memory: 29F32G08CBACA [Micron Technology - MT] - 1pc on motherboard
RAM: HYNIX H5TQ2G83CFR - 2 pcs on motherboard
Correct me if I am wrong.
Flash memory some internet pages reports that is 4GB some 8GB.
For RAM I go straight to manufactor web site it's 2GB DDR3 ram module and tablet motherboard have 2pcs.
So my question is why Android OS showing only 4GB Flash memory (I think this is ROM - correct me if I am wrong) and 368MB ram (usable) and 512MB (total RAM) where on motherboard are 2pcs of HYNIX memory 4GB RAM?
Any advice and explanation?
Thank you
anyone????
Well what is your question?
If u got the tablet sold to you as a 4 GB. That is the whole system and storage total. Usually partitioned into 3 or 4 partitions.
Not really sure what u are asking, them Chinese tablets are made by about 100 different companies. Ram isn't removable if that is what your thinking

I'm kind of confused.
The tablet is 4Gb of internal storage and 512Mb of RAM. There's really nothing more to be said. Android is only showing that because that's what is there. If you got scammed that's another issue - but if it was sold to you as 4Gb flash memory and 512Mb RAM then that is what you do have.
Like ronedogg said, the 4Gb is all the internal memory, including space for your ROM (software that makes the tablet run). That's all there is to report because that's all there is.
The RAM might be "2 pieces" of 254Mb RAM. It's not 2Gb - even if you have a copy of a tablet that's supposed to have 2Gb RAM you do not have that, you have 512Mb RAM. Nobody is putting 2 pieces of 4Gb RAM in Android tablets - you only see that in Windows tablets that have Intel processors and tend to be very expensive. Did you pay over $1000USD for this tablet ? I hope not. :silly:
Your RAM is probably 2 modules of 254Mb RAM, if it's even "2 pieces" at all. Generally when reporting RAM they will tell you total RAM, not some number that you multiply, anyway.
Hello,
Thank you for informations. I payed less then 80USD for tablet (used - not new).
Even that tablet have 512MB ram when it's on Android shown Total Mem.: 368,36MB ram (used for OS around 150MB) so Free ram that I can use is only around 200MB (on stock rom).
So that's I am confused why have 512MB of ram and usable only 200MB. Or it's just SW blocked???
In attachment are specs for module.
Thank you
BR
Well, what is the Ram that is being used going toward? The system can take more than 150Mb from what I've read.
I don't know what you have specs for, but I'd be willing to bet my firstborn that it's not what is in your device. You could open the tablet up to confirm it yourself, but if it was sold as 512 and reports 512, why do you think it would be otherwise?
