Hello All!
Just got HTC One S in the mail today, I was aware of the limited storage of the phone by reading the forums here, users said I should have around 10GB of "user" storage. Quite far from the advertised 16 haha!
I understand the ~2GB is dedicated to apps etc.
My question is:
Has anyone figured out how to repartition the storage in order to decrease app storage, and increase user storage? (maybe by a different rom etc?)
I personally wouldn't mind having 1GB of app space just to fit a few more albums of music (I love music on my phone)
I'm thinking even if I used nobloat to remove the t-mobile preloaded stuff, I would only increase the application storage (which does nothing for but increase just the application storage space?)
Somebody give me some help here
Anybody??
Removing the bloat will only free up space on your system partition, not /data where your downloaded apps are stored. I'm not sure if anyone has repartitioned the One S yet, though.

It should be possible, though, I did it on my HTC Hero

Your HTC Hero prolly had S-OFF or a similar removal of protections in place. As of now, without S-OFF we cannot repartition, becaue we cannot write to locked areas of the NAND / NVRAM (whatever it is exactly...) and therefore we can't resize partitions.
Nope, no S-off
Question
the question is another: can we physically change the sd-card hosted inside the phone with another one of a bigger capacity? (32 / 64 gb like in the HTC Mozart)

That's assuming its an actual SD Card, and not some memory soldered in place (most likely)

Run some read/write speed tests, you'd be pretty lucky to get an SD card that could put up the numbers this phone does. It's a very tiny chance it's an SD card, but I refuse to give up hope until it's proven.

me too, as I am getting up to 18mb read and I backup a lot, so it is welcome
I am converted to no sd card phones, as the memory here is fine for me--got dropbox/google drive etc if needed
If you have decent coverage in your area you can try google play. And I'm pretty sure you can download the music directly to your phone from it, if the area you'll be in is spotty.

Does anybody actually read the specs before they buy something ? HTCs website says its 10gb user available storage and so does the back of the T-Mobile box it comes in !

Do you... He said he read the fourms and was aware of the 10gb user space.
I think he's asking if that can be changed.
And to answer that, without S-Off I don't think so.

You definitely won't without s-off. Or, more likely an exploit like Blackrose which was developed for the N1. Where it simulates s-off to resize partitions. But, is not true s-off as related to the secure flag. I don't know if it is easy for dev to look at Blackrose in N1 sub-forum and carry that over to One S--
So were talking about this:
4 GB's for the OS, 1 GB for the system apps (after potential resize). Gaining only 1 GB for the User. Increasing the User avalible space to 11GB's.
That seems like a lot of work for only 1GB. Unless someone could trim the OS down by half. 13GB usable....hmmm!

Another solution could be a usb host mode... Don´t know if that is possible?

Hi,
did anyone figured out which IC is used for storage?
Cheers
I read somewhere in one of these forums that someone did have success changing the sd card to a 32gb. And he even posted a video on how to open the device.

First of all this should be in the questions section. Second root is one-click and unlocking the device is done by simply installing the asus app and voiding your warranty.
Some questions
Sorry, I know that post isn't in de right section, but I have some questions with the same subject.
So, If I do root there is NO warrenty any more? even if it is a hardware problemem or somme thing like that?
Can somme one tell me please, wat is de max capacity of the usb reader, I mean, can I put a flash driver with 64GB for example?
The tab have a microSD port, I thing, but the docking have also a SD reader, so we can use 2 cards (one MicroSD 32Gb and one SD 16 Gb for example) together? If YES, how can i know were I'm writing my file, in internal, MicroSD or SD card?
----EDIT
I don't have the tab yet, I want to be sure if these tab will answer all my needs. Tanks
the internal storage is saved in /sdcard. MicroSD is in /Removable/MicroSD. I'd imagine SD card would be in /Removable/SD or something to that effect.
Tanks... But and about the flash driver... Wat is the maximum capacity, the tab read how much max?
Sorry for that ugly English

Manufacturer says 32gb. Some users have reported success with 64gb. I assume you are referring to the "microSD Slot" on the tablet itself.
Yes, tanks... But there is also a 2.0 USB on docking, so can I, normally put a pen drive? And how much is the limit of the pen drive?
Sent from my R800i using xda premium
The flash drive/pen drive slot is on the keyboard dock which is sold separately from the tablet. With the dock though, yes, you can put in a flash drive. I believe the limit is 32gb, but again, it's possible that it may accept larger sizes like 64gb. I haven't tried putting anything bigger than that though.

Well I got the TF300 today. I have to say it is by far one of the fastest if not the fastest tablet I have used. And I have used at least 5 in the last few months. And it has no backlight bleed which was my main concern. So far I am liking what I am seeing. The only thing that concerns me now is, no gorilla glass. I hope this thing has some sort of scratch resistant screen. Also why only the one speaker on the right side that is kinda lame. I can totally tell listening to stuff that sound is only coming from one side. Ok back to more testing...
Is anyone able to use a class 10 card on GB or ICS?
Sent from my MB865 using xda app-developers app
Here we go again... you should of searched but it may not have bean brought up using ics so I'll give you my experiences They work but their are some issues. I had no probs with one on gb but i didn't run an apps off it and that's where most the probs occur. On ics sometimes it shows 0 pics are in the gallery but Al my music and files show up. And the card shows up in the settings. Maybe its an ics bug but most likely a class 10 issue. class 6 and below work flawlessly.

The reason I asked that in the thread is because there is already threads for all kinds of issues with the leak, even one dedicated to bugs for the leak, my thread is just dedicated to getting on to the leak, not issues with the leak, so it should be kept to ONLY people having issues installing the leak, and nothing more. I am not trying to be a jerk, I just can't support every little issue in my thread that the leak might bring. Besides it is a leak, not a final version.
Besides all things about class 10 cards have been covered umpteen times now, just because it is ICS does not mean that it is likely going to change.

Oh I hope you don't think I was upset or anything. I was just hoping that you and everyone else understood my point in the other thread. I was just wanting to clear that up.
As for a class 10 SDcard with ICS. I put one of the 3 that I have and I still have the same issues with the gallery and the certain apps that just stop seeing the card for no reason, sometimes a reboot works and other times it does not. For the record I have a class 10 32GB SAN Disk that I use and I have been using in a few phones with any issues but the A2 has issues with it. I also a a class 4 and a class 6 32GB SAN Disk as well, and both of those work without any issues in the A2 and don't have the same weirdness that the class 10 does.

I saw one guy say that a PNY one was working on that second link you posted. I never saw that before because I got caught up on another thread about Atrix 2 bugs (caused by SD card). I'm sorry if I was a little snappy earlier; it's not personal I'm just sick of life as a whole.
Techsavvy you've made me a happy man! I did all that you said and now I can run Passmark Mobile. It used to freeze up on mem test. This is my 16gb Class 6. If I don't have any problems for the next few days (usually within 2 days I will have a problem) then I will buy a 32gb UHS1. I will keep everyone posted if this solves the problem.

and most of the people who reported class 10 working with them, later on reported that they are also getting few issues, and somebody said it "It doesn't matter if its working now, soon or later you will face issues", not trying to discourage you, but you know I've gone through most of the threads and this is what i understood
I have not seen this done before in any posts and wondering. Would it be possible to dismantle the HOX and replace the sd card with a larger capacity? My sister in law gave me a HTC windows phone and said it went dead on her one day and threw it in the drawer. I played with it and never could get it back to working order. I scoured the net and found a way to replace the internal sd. So I put in a 1gb sd and now it works. Is there a way to do the same with the HOX , just curious.
unfortunately you cant.. the windows phone 7 devices used microsd card instead of nand inside em (although the sd slot wasnt accessible without disassembly), thats why it was possible to replace.. in this case the one x uses nand which is built into the motherboard, hence cant be swapped out like a microsd

From reading in the soff thread before it was achieved, if I recall correctly there are pads on the main board for a SD holder. Not sure if that's verified though.

so if the pads really are there, one would have to solder on the card slot to be able to insert a sd card?

Well it depends on if you are a picky person that just picks apart every flaw in a device. I, for one, love the Nexus 5 and dont see any issues with it. Others will say the screen sucks or the battery isnt that great or the speaker is too low or the power button rattles (yes, thats a things here). It depends on the type of person you are. Maybe even what phone you are coming from, because chances are you will be comparing the two.

If he searches "defect" he will see all the potential defects of this phone, which is what he asked for.
If he then doesn't have the intelligence to work out not all nexus 5 phones are like that, well nothing I can do there. ...and nothing I care about. I'm not here to sell the Nexus 5 to him. I couldn't care less if he got a nexus 5 or not.

Looking at getting an N5
What's up N5 forum?
I'm wanting to get a new phone and I'm looking at a couple different devices. The N5 is on the top of my list though. I think for the price and the device you're getting, I just can't go wrong.
I've been reading through the N5 threads to get familiar with the device. Looks really nice, has some great hardware specs and has a lot of development, overall seems like a great device.
So how's everyone liking the device so far?
The only things that really concern me about the device is that it doesn't have a external sd card slot and doesn't have a removable battery. Anyone having issues with this?
Is the 16gb version enough or should I just go for the 32gb. I'm leaning towards the 32gb for the extra storage.
Anyone done a tear down on the device and know if the internal SD card is accessible and can be replaced with a larger SD card? I did this with my HTC HD7 and swapped the original internal 16gb SD card for a 32gb card.
I'm on metro pcs service, so is there any perks to either the Google play edition or the T-Mobile?
Either way I plan on unlocking the bootloader, rooting and flashing a custom rom.
Any feedback is appreciated

why does everyone always want this
The Google play store and Tmobile are the same phone. There's only two models United States and rest of the world.
Never heard of anyone opening up a nexus 5 to put a larger SD card in there

Well my concern was if the battery goes out there's no way to replace it... right? So the device is rendered useless and then your left with buying a new device. It's not like this is a deal breaker for me, I was just wondering if anyone has had any problems. I know it's a relatively new device and no one should have any problems with the battery yet.

Thanks for the tear-down links.... They were very informative. I feel better knowing that the battery is pretty easily replaceable if needed.
The N5 has an integrated memory so there is not actual SD card in the device, but either way the 16gb or 32gb will be plenty of storage.
