[Q] 32GB phone only shows 16GB? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I unlocked/custom recoveried/rooted my N5. At some point I screwed it up enough that I had to restore the factory image from AOSP.
I don't know know if my 32GB phone ever showed ~32GB total. But now it shows ~16GB total.
Anyone know if this is a software thing, or maybe I actually got a 16GB phone even though the box says 32GB?

[Q] Possible bricked Motorola Xoom - Please help!

Hi all, I recently got up the courage to attempt to install 3.1 on my UK Wifi xoom. I started by unlocking the bootloader. All went ok. Next I followed instructions on how to install the ClockworkMod Recovery. Installed it fine but couldn't boot into it.
Then rebooted to find my wifi had an error so i decided to perform a factory reset. The device rebooted into ClockworkMod Recovery and for some reason i played around with the 'Partition SD card' and made a partition... "I think".
It then turned off.. and nothing. I have tried the volume up + power button etc etc...
Any solutions or advice? PLEASE!?!
is it still recognized by PC in ANY way?

Sorry, but this sounds bad. Really bad.
Do a search through these forums. It appears that trying to partition using CWM ends up bricking the Xoom to the point that sending it to a service center and feigning ignorance is your only recourse.
Search through the forum, I hope I am wrong...but I don't think I am.
Not recognized at all - The only life i get out of it is the charging light.
i try to understand what you actually tried? u inserted a not-working sd in the SD-Slot and tried to partition it with CWM ?
Darn. I have had a quick look. I have a local technician looking at it at this present. But you have a good point. I could just say i hadn't a clue what i was doing.

No i did a factory reset and was presented with clockwork mod recovery and messed around with the partition SD card (There was no SD card in slot) created a partition, pressed reboot and didn't turn back on.

Well there was no fix. I took it back into Curry's/PCWorld and they replaced it. I blamed it on the fact that the battery overheated. No questions asked.
But cheers for all of your advice guys! Much appreciated

Good for you, in the future please do those of us that make a living on technology a favor and dont ruin your device and then ask the store you bought it from to take responsibility for your mistake.

i9103 doesn't turn on, display black

Hi guys,
I need some help from you. I have a problem with my galaxy r since today. At night it works perfectly, the last time, i used it, was at midnight, but at the morning, the display doesn't turn on. I plugged out the battery and after 1 minute, i plugged it in and tried to turn on the phone, but the phone does nothing. No Display, no vibration, nothing. Then i tried to plugin in the charger with battery - still the same problem.
If I put in the usb cable to the pc, the pc search a driver for "apx".
What can i do, to rescue my galaxy R ?
Software at the phone: Stock GB Austria "3" firmware
Kernel: Stock
CWM: 6 touch
root: yes
Hope, that somebody can help me
Sorry for my bad english - I'm from Austria
Dont worry I had the same problem with my phone ... check out this thread ...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1706572
Hi shad24, thank you for your answer. I know this thread, but i haven't backuped my "efs" folder and so i brought it to my local shop and they sended it to repair station, because i'm still having warranty.
Hope there is no problem, because i have cwm and many more things on my phone. But i think, they didn't know them, because the phone completely didn't work. If they change the mainboard, do they know, which data is in the "internal sd card" ? Or is it only a flash chip in the phone and not a real sd card?
Best regards
Hey,
See if they repair your phone by changing the chip or flashing the memory ... what ever you have saved on your internal memory i.e. phone memory will be deleted ...I am sorry there is no way to recover it...

But, i meant the internal sd card, not the internal phone memory. I know, that the flash of the phone memory will be deleted, if they flash a new software. But whats with the internal SD Card?. Is this only a flash chip on the mainboard, or is it a real sd card?.
The problem is this:
If they found a cwm or something like that on my phone, i didn't have warranty and so i have to pay for the repair. But if it is unpossible to find something like that, i have warranty and didn't have any problems.

Do you know about Brickbug...?? It just brick your emmc. & what is emmc..?? I think its your Internal SDcard of 8GB which partitioned into 2 ways. So if they will change your motherboard then your data in Internal Sdcard will be deleted.

No dont worry I do not think they will be able to find your CWM recovery because if the device is stuck in APX mode ... Nothing is recoverable from the chip...

Hello i think i have the same kind of problem somehow (Running Cynagonmod Nightly build 10.1 not sure about which excat version i think 01.05.2013), but I'm not certain. Last night i forgot my Galaxy R in the car with about 19% battery left. In the Morning it was not on anymore. I didn't bother much about it and went to my office and put in my USB cable to the computer to get a little bit of battery. I left it there like 3 hours. Then i tried to turn it on and at first all got was the battery symbol with a loading circle. After that I tried again and i got the boot-screen of Cynagonmod the it turned on, but after awhile it turned of again and ever since the it is stuck in the boot-screen and runs a little bit hot. I tried to remove battery and everything many times but neither did work. Can somebody verify if i have the same problem?:crying: Because after flashing 10.1 the phone got so much better. Thank you guys:good:
-----------------------------
Hey guys it somehow reverted i got it running after taking out battery again and then turning it on without connecting it to a wallplug. Then I put the charger again and now it seems to be happily loading.

23GB System Data Usage?? internal memory shrunk to 8GB

I just noticed that after a factory restore, my device shows 23GB system data used. Is this normal?
Free space is only 7.45GB even though this is a 32GB model.
I'm not sure what it was before, but only noticing after flashing the H959 firmware.
Does anyone else have this issue?
EDIT: it seems that my device shows a total size of 8gb when connected to pc.. but in settings > storage it shows 32gb with 23gb used by system data
No. I have 13GB free with a bunch of apps installed.
it seems that my device's sd card somehow resized itself to 8gb. I have no idea how to fix this.
Hoping for some feedback on this.. I installed parted on the phone to take a look at the partitions
This seems really confusing:
48 5755MB 31.2GB 25.5GB ext4 userdata
25.5GB is being used for userdata after a factory reset.
Do you have a lot of music and vids in your storage?

A factory reset doesn't delet them.
Sent from my GT-I8190 using XDA Free mobile app
No
this is the storage being used after a factory reset, so with absolutely no data on the phone, apparently 25.5GB is in userdata somewhere
So it seems that this is caused by flashing the 955 rom on a non-955 device. I guess it has to do with the 16gb/32gb storage space difference.
So moral of the story: If you don't have a 955, don't flash a 955 rom.
...That aside, does anyone know how I can fix this? flashing back to the original rom doesn't work. Does this mean the partitions are permanently screwed up? Will there at least be some hope when a custom recovery becomes available?
I'm in the same boat. After flashing 955 rom on my 959, there becomes 23.9 GB of system data occupied on my drive. Maybe if the bootloader is unlocked, then we can edit the partitions, but for now, it'd be gone for good. My plan is to wait till the official 959 15A rollout and then go to service center and blame the update made my drive occupied with junks. .. hope it works.

as far as it make sense to me, what they've written there is you need to run the app and the phone will automatically rebooted. if the phone rebooted successfully back, then the fix would failed.
in order to fix successfully, the phone must show an error. then you can flash a 959 rom to complete the fix.
so far I've tried, the phone always successfully rebooted. I saw "/system/bin/sh: su: not found" error. So I guess the phone must be rooted. I'm on V10D which I'm not sure if it can be rooted. Well, at least .. we know this thing can be fixed. let's try to root and try again.

My LG Flex2 F510 after running repair my Memory have just only 9GB.Please help me restore my partion....

[SOLVED] Nexus 5 32Gb won't go back to full internal storage. Tried everything!

So after a few weeks after the launch of the Marshmallow uptade, I flashed the stock image with fastboot using a Mac and everything gone flawlessly, until I saw my internal storage. My 32Gb nexus became a 16Gb model.
I search in EVERY Forum I found on the internet, and I have good skills on recovering android phones with software problems, all the "how-to's" I found were with very easy instructions, but NONE of then worked for me.
Ive tried EVERYTHING I found on the internet. Do a factory reset, tried to resize the partition using TWRP, flashed manually all the partitions, flashed the stock image again and again many times, flashed customs roms, tried to erase the userdata, cache and system partitions tons of times using flashtool on windows, mac and linux and NOTHING worked. In all the process my phone started with no problems, but my internal storage stayed 12,55gb. My Bootloader shows 32Gb model, the IMEI on LG database shows 32Gb model AND the logic board indicates a 32Gb model... I really don't know what to do! Anyone can save me???? Thanks!
In advance information, I followed every step on this guide at least 10 times, and didn't work:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701
I was thinking in the possibility of an custom Userdata partition, only for the 32Gb model, that I can flash manually or a program, like GParted, that I can manually resize the data partition.
I'm really desesperate here, so sorry for any english mistakes, since I speak portuguese, or any dumb idea.
Thanks for any help!
-------------------------------------- FOUND THE SOLUTION! ----------------------------------------------
After WEEKS trying to realize what the hell happened and rethinking every possible form to regain my full storage, I've found the solution.
Fiddling with the partitions on the phone, i learned that there is a partition on the system, that "informs" the userdata that the phone is a 16Gb or a 32Gb variant, and it's called "Primary GPT".
I realized that the guy who sold to me, recovered the phone from an brick it suffered, but he used a 16Gb model GTP partition to reinstall the bootloaders and the system, so, no matter how many different process I tried, I would NEVER recognizes the 32Gb, because THIS partition was telling the system that it was a 16Gb model.
(Little of a noob explain but that was the way I got it...)
So all I had to do was use this thread to reflash the correct GPT partition:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...-unbrick-nexus-5-stucked-qualcomm-hs-t3043301
And then, reflash the complete system image file, and after the boot, my phone recognized the 32Gb internal storage again!
Thank you guys for the effort in sorting out any way to help me, I hope this thread can help someone else facing the same problem in the future!
Peace!

Tried everything I could do... Flashed userdata partition, erased the partition with fastboot then entered in recovery mode (stock and custom) and then format the userdata from there, doing that by doing a factory reset and wiping cache partition and nothing...
Any other idea what it could be?
Unfortunately, I have no idea why this happened or how to fix it as I only have the 16 GB version.
seriously guys, anybody to save my day?

Have you tried factory reset and wiping cache from STOCK recovery? That always works for me.
Try using flash-all.bat in Windows. Part of the stock favor image. Make sure to take backup before doing it though
Had this happen once and had to factory reset from stock recovery like he said above. Worked like a charm!

I believe it's a way of restoring data or storage to it's original configuration. Also had this problem on my 32gb N5 early on, unfortunately I can't remember what I did that time to get it back.

I believe it's a way of restoring data or storage to it's original configuration. Also had this problem on my 32gb N5 early on, unfortunately I can't remember what I did that time to get it back.

I tried this code using the terminal on the phone, rebooted and the storage stayed the same, I'll try to do the same process using adb shell from my windows computer, since I have the "light"version of adb and fastboot installed on my mac and the adb shell comand is giving me the "offline" error...
I'll get back here with any updates.
thanks in advance guys! Hope this comand works! :highfive:
Well... Tried with my windows computer, and next with my Mac, with the command line given and.... Nope. Nothing changed.
I know it's not great but if your desperate....
I've always done things manually but there comes a time when your willing to try whatever to fix your phone as they don't come cheap, so if I could recommend a toolkit that has saved my ass more than once and has worked flawlessly for me every time maybe it could help you too.

It's called Nexus Root Toolkit and its by the developer wugfresh. Try this if you'd like, if not I hope you find a solution. This kit has everything you can think of that could help you with rooting, or returning to stock and relocking. Best of luck with your journey!

The wrong size memory issue, 16 Gb instead of 32, is an old issue. It can be solved by booting into the stock recovery then clearing cache and then doing a factory reset. Note, this will wipe your device.
