[Q][SOLVED] Custom ROM's specific for storage space? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
Are the custom ROM's specific for 16GB and 32 GB or independent of the storage space?
I want to buy one Nexus 5 but because I use to change the software, I need to know the better Nexus 5 version to do it.

Independent.
The ROM doesn't need control what size the /data partition is. This is information for the file system

Hi,
Nope, they are all the same, no distinction between 16 or 32 GB model...

no, only 8 gb verison. rest of the 4 gb is allocated for system and apps.
From 8 gb for you is available 5.5 gb. 1.5 for apps and the rest are for personal data like photos/music/movies and of course stupid games data -.-

[Q] Before I buy questions..

hey everyone, so I am thinking of moving from my **** I9500 (good phone) just for the reason that I cant flash aosp Roms. So I would like to go for a nexus device and just to makre sure...there are many Roms for this phone without any problems right? I know its a nexus, but just to make sure because the I9500 had a problems with AOSP. Also how much space do you get in the 16gb model....and is it enough for some music and apps.
Thanks

You have about 12,5 GB left for you on the 16GB model, and yes development is great regarding rom`s, kernels and mods.

Not as far as i know, why would storage size be a problem. They are all the same roms for both the 16 and 32GB models.

There weren't any problems with the 32gb model. Just user error

I wonder where all these misconceptions come from?
plenty of asop ROMS to go around and I recommend the 32GB version

Usable storage with MM

Hi,
what is the usable storage on a Nexus 5 with Marshmallow. I'm using Cataclysm and have 12.xGB to work with. Is that normal?
26.76GB on a 32GB model.
You should factory reset your phone to get full 26 gb instead of 12 gb when updated to Marshmallow
Aaaand I forgot to mention that I have the 16GB Nexus 5, sorry. In comparision to the 32GB model I'd say that 12.xGB seem about right

Custom roms and differences between 8/16GB versions

Hi,
I am looking at potentially buying a Moto G 2015 and am tempted to go for the 16GB rom / 2Gb ram version.
Will any custom rom install on it as it would install on the 8GB regular version? I've quickly checked the forum and assume that "YES" , but jsut want to be 100% sure.
Thanks!
