I got my white 32gb in today and it only showed a little over 26gb of free memory , I notice that the 16gb models are showing a little over 12gb. Don't think there's any difference software wise for the 32 model to take more memory..
What is the actual memory available for the 32 model ?
( I am aware that its not going to have 32 GB because of the software )
thanks

CAN SOME MOVE THIS TO THE ACCESSORIES SECTION ,SORRY
i think Its cheap coz the class less than 6
maybe 4
the most important is the class
class 10 will be the best
its class 4

lol that sucks
but anyways, 32gb, whatever class it is, for $29 isnt bad
class 4 is good enough for a mobile phone. If you just use it to store mp's/photo's.
Higher then class 4 is only interesting when filming/photographing on a high resolution and thus need a high read/write speed.
Anyway, $29 for 32 gig is a very nice price!!
Still... don't know why this in the dev. forum

I bought a SD card and a thumb drive. Both turned out to be fakes from China. The 32 GB thumb drive only held 14 GB of data and was flaky at that. The SD card was slow and was also unbranded. I would be very careful about what data you save to it. It might just go south on you.
Keep an eye on sales ads. I just got a 8GB class 10 micro SD at bestbuy for $19.99
**This is in the dev thread because it was a mistake on the OP part. He asked for it to be moved, but the MODs have not done so. I suggest sending them a PM bro. Might get a better response.
There are free programs, like h2testw, you can download to test the sd cards and usb drives. I purchased one a while ago that was supposedly a 32gb, and windows detected it as a 32gb. I tested it and it was really 1GB.
BE REALLY CAREFUL INDEED,
I bought exactly the same 2 weeks ago on Ebay, same packaging exactly, about same price.
It was a fake that was only 2Go, with a ridiculous transfer rate of 2.2Mo/sec with downs to 150ko/sec
So I bought another one 32Mo, branded, class4, more expensive of course! (I also think we don't really more than class 4 unless your're really impatient when transferring big files from your PC to your SD card. Class 4 is already enough for the Sensation HD recording, and having class 10 wouldn't speed up any app except for some benchmarks that take SD card write/read into account)
Check microcenter. I picked up a 16 gig class 10 today for $28+tax... Well worth the price.

I took a chance on one of these. The seller has 100% positive feedback and has sold a ton of them. So hopefully it works out. He also will fully refund my money if it doesn't work. So reward outweighs the risk.

Hello there, I would like to know if it is possible to install an app which full size is bigger than your sd? In my case I want to install nova3 but my sd card is only 2gb(actually 1.8) and nova takes 2gb of space. Since the Atrix 2 installs directly to sd card is it impossibly for me to play it unless I buy a bigger sd card?
I tried to look this up but nothing showed up...
Thanks beforehand

I recently bought a galaxy tab 2 7" 8GB, but I can only use 4 of it. Would installing a custom rom give me more space? Its a shame that they really only give you 4gb

No, you will need to jump through a couple hoops and leverage your sdcard slot, by using a swap script, or an app like foldermount, gl2sd, or similar. Personally, i used the swap script when i was using 4.1.x, but now i use foldermount. The p3113 swap script is on these forums, and foldermount is in the play store, or the thread for it, which are in the android apps and games forum, or software development, i forget which.
Oh yeah, every option requires root access.

Just a quick question since it's brought up. What class sd card is suggested for doing this method? I've read that class 4 is better than class 10 for doing this, but that was on my Xperia Play. Just wanted to make sure before I invest in one.
Thanks.

I don't know if it is true,but I had a class 4 SD card on my xperia mini,and i when I bought a class 10 16 GB,the phone was about 30% faster with swap then class 4 with swap.
So I believed in classes ;D

I have a 32 GB U1 which U1=Class 10 fyi.
My tab has 16GB storage but only about 12GB useable so it would make sense a 8GB only has about 4 useable.
Sent from my GT-P5113 using XDA Premium HD app
Class 4 will never be as good as a class 10. I am running a Samsung Class 10 UHS-1 70MB/s read and 20MB/s write card and that is about as good as it gets. Anything higher is not supported by our device (read and write speed-wise you would be over-compensating way too much).
I read somewhere that when using the sd card for apps and the such.
Ah, here it is:
This higher class # = higher speed across the board is a bit of a misnomer. Lower class (4&6) seem to have higher random access speeds, so when pulling up files lower than 6MB, it may behoove you to have a lower class card. Seems handy when pulling up photo and MP3. If you're transferring large files you may see speed increases for things like full movies or apps. Is it worth 10 seconds every now and then? I'll let you decide.

Yes, it definitely gives u a lot more space because stock roms are filled with bloatware (pre-installed apps), which according to me are useless. If you flash a custom rom it is not filled with all that crap and will give u a lot more of storage like if you have an 8gb tab 2 u will get only about 3-4 gigs of free space on stock but if you switch to custom rom you will have around 6-7 gigs of free space.

No one has tried repartitioning space from system to data? System takes up over 1.4 gigs, so with most ROMs your wasting a gig of space.

Hi All,
Just had a play with the S6 and S6 Edge, both 32GB variants with minimal installed apps and they only had 12.4GB free space. I am glad I opted for the 64GB model. Can anybody who actually has the 32GB variant confirm that what I have seen is correct? if so that is a lot of space taken up by Samsung.
Thanks
I've seen screens where between 22 and 24GB were free on the 32GB model. On retail units it's often less because of the software and demo material on them.

System partition is just shy of 4 GB. Believe the 22-23GB number is what I've seen as well.

It will be very limiting if we don't delete old videos,music and photos to add more.
I have 3gb left on my M8 16gb + 16gb sdcard and the available internal memory is about 10gb when I bought it, so total user memory 26gb, now it's 23gb on S6 for the 32gb
Well let's hope black market will bring the 64gb in my country then
