I think I've got 2 roms installed on my phone, but one is inaccessible. I had installed a kdz and then I went to a custom ROM.
Thing is I'm thinking thus because I currently have 11gb free on my 32gb phone. The max I have available is 22gb which is about right but here's the thing, I only have 4gb of data actually used. I can't seem to see anything else and I'm a little lost on where the extra 8 has gone because there is nothing stored on my phone that I can account for that much space,
Does anyone have any ideas

I understand this device has a rather limited amount of available space. I was wondering if anyone could give me an estimate to how much data is available after factory startup. Thank you!
Also, is all memory included as part of this '16gigs', such as sd card stuff, apps, and the ROM? Thanks again! Just want to find out what EXACT space I am working with here when I get this device
4 gb reserved for system, 2 gb for apps. Available storage = 10 gb. Yeah its that bad.

Damn that is bad! Really making me reconsider but I would rather have this than GSiii. Thanks, from a fellow Chicagoan
I have no use for MORE than 10 gigs in a phone. Quite frankly, I utilize some minor space on Dropbox as well.
If I need more space than 10gigs, I have a couple hard drives for that.
I'm sure we'll have easy access to USB host at some point, which will work for me. I mainly want the extra space for nandroids, app backups and pictures without using Dropbox for everything. I don't use my phone for movies (all on my tablet) and no storage needed for Google Music, but still worried that I'll fill up the 10gigs. Had 16 gb card in my HD2 and that was pretty much always full.
Sorry if this has been asked before, but I've been pretty regular on the forums and searched a few times now and not found anything. When I had the HTC Desire which had limited internal memory, with S Off the partitions could be changed to suit what rom you were using, so space wasn't wasted which originally was used for the huge stock rom.
The main reason I sold my first htc one s almost a year ago was that I used up the 9gb of available space very fast. I've always had just a 16gb sd card in the rest of my phones and never ran out of space so far. I waited until the HTC One S got s off before I considered getting it again. Now I got a $100 used One S which I'm really happy with, rooted and S off and it's working great, but it looks like there is no possibility of ever getting that wasted space in the memory card so I can fit more music and pictures/videos on here.
Can someone confirm that there is no way, or chance at some time being a way to do this? I'm going to stick with the One S anyway because I love it otherwise, maybe I will have to get a usb otg cable and small flash drive and store extra music that way?
Thanks.
Theoretically, it can be done but it has not (yet) been done.
It is a dangerous thing to experiment with; you can realistically only play around with that if you have the means to revive a brick. Also, in case of the One-S it doesn't make as much sense as on the Desire. (I have a Bravo-PVT-1 as well.)
The Desire had waaay too little space for apps and app data. Moving relatively little space from system and cache to data made a lot of difference and was a huge benefit.
The One-S has enough space for apps and app data. The extra space we could theoretically move from system and data to sdcard would be well under 2G. Much less of a benefit.
9.6G is not much but neither is 11G, so not much of an incentive. But no, I can not confirm that there is no way never ever.

That's too bad. For me personally there is way more space than I will ever need for apps. Not sure but I assume even the sense based Roms like the viper Rom I've got now use less space than stock.
I think this phone needs the repartitioning more than the desire did.

Maybe you can try this.
It's not really partitioning, but can give you more space.
Hey this problem might have already been solved, but its driving me crazy. My internal memory says it is completely full yet my app storage doesn't equal the amount it is saying. My phones memory is saying I have less than one GB left. I just don't understand. It's been like this for a while. I'm running 4.2.2 dirty unicorn rom btw.

Mine is that way too.... Now I am trying to move stuff to the SD card and it's not letting me... I got all my music and a bunch of other stuff moved over to the SD card and now I have like 65% free space.... BUT there wasn't that much data moved so I don't understand, like you mine didn't equal what it was saying either.
I'm having a problem like this as well. Im guessing whenever I install a new ROM, for some reason it creates a directory on the root of the internal storage that looks like a backup of all my old files (I cant seem to find it now, of course). Regardless, I just got done freeing up around 600MB of data, but cannot for the life of me figure out where all the rest of this 11.4GB of data is being stored. All my music, apps, pictures, videos are all stored on my external SD.
I'm having this issue as well. I just flashed paranoid to my friends phone now internal storage is only using a few hundred meg yet there is only 7gb free. should be almost 12gb free. I will continue looking into this, hopefully someone figures this out if I cant
I hve checked many roms starting from GB, through ICS finishing on PACman. I ve tried formatting and even repartitioning my internal storage but it is still filling up itself. When I install new system it is fine for a week, after that time it says low storage space, when I check it it looks like Internal memory is 0.98GB, then apps 342MB and some data 1,21MB, but still ive got only 93,42MB free space (this is for PAC man, it survived longest time without low space warning, 2weeks), can someone help please?
Noone seriously?
Never seen or had this problem. All I can think of is something is not right regarding driver install when you are flashing. Otherwise, dunno. Perhaps some kind of memory leak, but as for what or why, no idea.
There is everything OK with the drivers, especially that this happens even when I upgrade my LG to official ICS through official LG Updater. What I noticed as well that sometimes my \data is 0,93 GB and sometime 1,35GB, but still filling up.
Hello guys, I got a Moto G a few months ago and it's definitely a great phone for the $25 it cost me brand new. I'm not used to a phone being this slow, but honestly it does everything I need it to do for far less money than any other phone. I originally got it because I just wanted to get away from the major carries contract plans and now have cricket service for only $35/month. The only negative thing I've found is the lack of memory on the device is severely hampering my ability to install applications.
I have a 64gb sd card installed that it recognizes just fine. However, when I try to install games from the play store it won't let me because of the lack of internal storage. So, I understand what is happening and why........ What I want to know now is, is there a way to work around this issue?
I've already moved what I could onto the sd card through the settings menu. However, that didn't move a whole lot. This really sucks that there is 40gb free on my sd card and I'm unable to utilize it to install applications. When I bought the phone I didn't think this would be an issue. I thought I'd just be able to move everything over no problem.
Surely, I'm not the only person having this issue. Any help guys? Possibly an old thread that I missed on how to get around this?
