What happened to my RAM?? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5

What happened to my 4gb ram? Is this thing correct? Does everybody else show 3.5gb as well? And why can't I lasso around pictures to cut and paste anymore? And why did they make you take so many damn steps to draw on an image? Why are we going backwords in time? Life was so easy on the note2 (shakes head).

Probably the same reason you buy hard drives and flash drives and the actual space is less because they advertise at 1,000 units where the operating system uses 1,032.

Yes, but that would still make it 3.87. I'm just nitpicking here. I think I've just become hypersensitive to samsung/verizon combination BS. I miss my note 2.

Free space hog...

So, every few days, I check to see how much free room I have in my phone storage, and I noticed a real strange pattern. I'd keep losing around 2+ gigs of room. I'd go into the little make more space setting, and every time, there were 2 temporary files for HTC aps totaling around that much. So not thinking anything of it, I just deleted that. Well, finally decided to check where that was coming from, and found this...

Now, why do I have more in thumbnails than actual pics? And why does it keep coming back like that? Nothing major, just annoying when I run out of space because I forgot to delete it, lol

[Q] how to suggest something to google (or any custom rom developer for a general fix

ok, so the thing is as an end user, I have no idea who to bother with this (whether they will listen is a whole other thingymagig)...
but well general discussion, here we go:
A thing which has been annoying the crap out of me in android is the checkboxes in settings not displaying the full text. Mostly the detailed explanation gives enough info to guess what it actually is about but sometimes it's anyones guess
for example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I'm guessing in the first screenshot "up..." stands for "update" seeing how it is referred to in the details, but the second one... ehm.... miniplayer? microphone?... milk!?
I am using a galaxy s2, not a giant screen but definitely not the smallest either, anyone an idea who or what we can inform about this annoyance?
Thanks!

Hard to see, but the phone is floating
Just got one of these for €20 shipped (I know, the shipping costs were ridiculous) and have just finished testing it in my bathtub!
The idea is that I'd connect this to my phone while boating and wont have to worry about dropping it off the boat or something. Something I noticed when I opened it was that the lanyard perfectly fits along the length of the phone, meaning you could put the phone in that and kind of lean it against rocks while swimming or something without having to worry about scratching the phone!
Very happy with this product! Anyone used anything similar?

Does anyone know what 10310 and 10283 is? Any help would be appreciated 'coz this is driving me nuts.
it could be from an app you recentl installed and uninstalled?? idk.. i've seen similar types of numbers in my battery menu. but i dont think that it serves any purpose tbh.. lol
is your phone using all 8 cores?? or do you have core 6 and 7 (technically 7 and 8) disabled??

Question Why is this part of my phone name?

I purchased an open box phone and see "(359J)" in the phone name. Any ideas why that is? Should I be concerned with anything?

That's the 4 letter/digit combo Samsung assigned the watch so you know which one it is when pairing it to a phone
Ahh ok. So all phones have that in their names? I have seen some screenshots and videos of people's phones on the bootup screens and haven't seen that.
Anyway, sounds like it's all good and nothing to worry about. Thanks!
Here's mine
You can change it from default using the Galaxy Wear app.
I guess that nobody has noticed that these are the last 4 characters of the serial number. Lmao
