HTC Incredible :: Actual Free Application Space - When Out Of Box?

Apr 21, 2010

Is there 748mb free available storage for apps? I have seen a few screen shots, but reviews and reports seem to contradict. If 512mb ROM, most out of box would be less than the 228mb free on Moto Droid, since Android 2.1 takes up more space, due to more pre-installed apps. My guess is there should be about 200mb free IF only a 512mb ROM, or none of the flash is allocated.

Only other option would be if the ROM is actually 1gb. Then the question would be where is the other 1.1 or so gigs of space on the "8gb built-in storage". Should be around 7.8gb free if 8gb is built in. BTW, where IS the "missing" storage space, since 8gb built-in and only 6.6gb shows free?

Android :: How To Get Available Space On Droid Sdcard

Sep 10, 2010

I am using Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() to create a file and I will need to know if there is enough space available before I create and store the file.

If you can cite the Android Ref doc, that would be helpful too.

Motorola Droid :: Titanium Backup - Move Apps Data To Sdcard To Save Some Space

Sep 2, 2010

I used the option in batching Titanium Backup to move apps and data to my sdcard to save some space. I've decided I want to move it back so that it's available when I press the Launcher. I know where it's stored on the sdcard and I have root explorer, but I'm just not sure which folder to move it back to in the first place. which folder houses all the apps that are currently available via the Launcher?

Android :: Free Space Required For Package Installer

Sep 7, 2009

The package installer looks to take up a good amount of space when installing applications. We've published a very large game (ProjectINF - 6mb). And it looks to be taking up a good amount of space during the install process, to the point that we have a lot of users emailing us with complaints/requests to "fix it".

From what we've seen, it looks to take about 22mb of free space to install a 6mb apk. While I can imagine taking double or so for unpacking and temp locations, almost 4x the size seems a bit high. After an install with 22mb free, the device has 16mb free (which makes perfect sense). Users also seem to be getting errors on the market when trying to install with less than that amount of space (with no real clear error message, just "Install Failed".

Android :: Out Of Memory On Bitmap But There Is Free Heap Space

Aug 10, 2010

I have a list view that display about 25 images with size 60x60 pixels. I dowload this images from internet and I store in an arraylist as Bitmap. I need to save it in a arraylist because a listview will recycle views and so I need, wenn the user scroll, to display the image in the new view WITHOUT downloading again from internet

But after some time I got

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget

It seams that I got this exception about after loading 20 images ...

Reading in forum I have read about memory heap.

I try to check the memory heap usage with: Debug.getNativeHeapAllocatedSize and Debug.getNativeHeapSize()

When the exception occours both are about 4M.

But android has more than 4M?

When the application start the values are a little less to 4M so it seams is not a big memory usage or memory leak.

To be sure I want to call : ActivityManager.getMemoryClass() but this method is and instance method and I can't find the object to invoke!

But this method say, that al min should an application have 16M!

Any help? I have seen many topics in google ... but all speak about recycle. But if I recycle a bitmat ... then should I download again from internet?

Should I store the image on flash memory or sd card instead an arraylist in memory?

Android :: Computing Free Space On External Card For Installation

Aug 15, 2010

My application allow to download files and store them on the external card. To avoid filling it, I've implemented a safety check so it prevents downloading when the free space is less than 20MB. The computation of the free space is done by:

public synchronized long getFreeSpace() { if (statFs == null) { statFs = new StatFs(getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath()); }

return statFs.getAvailableBlocks() * statFs.getBlockSize(); }

which I presume is correct. In fact, it works in all my tests and for what I can say for the 99% of users. But a single user notified me that my app is constantly giving the "card full" message, as if the above method didn't work. He also told me that the problem went away after a while, and returned after upgrading a new release of my app. The user seems an advanced one, and I think he's able to check and correctly manage the contents of his external card. He reported that the card has more than 1.4GB free on the card. Are you aware of any specific issue or bug? The smartphone of the user is a Dell Streak with Android 1.6.

HTC Desire :: Low On Space Notification With Over 100 MB Free

Sep 30, 2010

I'm running 2.1 on the Cellular South East network. I have received a notification that my Desire since is low on space, but I have over 100 mb of free memory. After a bit of research, I read that I should try to clear application caches. I used the application manager but the "clear cache " button for each application is greyed-out. I then read to wait a minute or so to allow all data to load. I waited 3 minutes, but I still couldn't clear any caches. Why I can't clear a cache?

HTC EVO 4G :: How To Free Up Space On Internal Memory?

Aug 27, 2010

So recently I have had my EVO tell me that I am running out of disk space (Internally), so is there an App or a way I can view my internal files and delete them off. I know I can use the Market to delete Apps and I can use the stock Froyo Manage Applications to remove Apps, but I feel that files I download to my phone are going to my internal memory rather then my SD memory. all the help!

General :: Low Free Space In Internal Memory

Apr 30, 2013

I have a problem with my Android phone. I already select an option to install apps into SD card but each installed apps still consume some free space in internal memory. Example: an app size 20 would take 2-5mb in internal memory. Unfortunately, my internal memory is only 222mb.

HTC Desire :: Free Space Reported Wrong / How To Recheck?

Oct 18, 2010

Went to install Need For Speed shift on my phone a few days ago, but it wouldn't install due to space. I went in and removed a few apps, one of which was my co pilot Sat Nav, which I think was 25mb alone. NFS still wouldn't install so I removed a few more apps. Suddenly my I got a message saying space on phone was low. This did not appear even before I removed apps including co pilot. When I check my memory it says there is 12mb free. It should be a lot more than that with copilot off the phone. So I should have a lot more free than that and should not be getting these messages. Is there any way to get the phone to recheck free space?

HTC Incredible :: Nandroid Warning For Enough Free Space On Sd Card

Aug 23, 2010

When nandroid does a back-up, it does not error out or warn if the card runs out of space. It will go through all of the back up steps and even produce an MD5 parity check, but it is checking the file created- NOT the actual targeted files as part of its verification process (only the parity of the final file created). I discovered this (almost) the hard way, but noticed that my card showed zero space. The back-up should have been about 850mb, but was 395mb. I removed some files from my sd card and repeated the process and then did a titanium back up of apps.

Shortly after backing up, I tried to install the King #2 kernel and my Inc got stuck in a boot loop. Had I not caught the Nandroid back-up issue, I would have been in a rough situation. The sad thing is I have a 32gb card, but is loaded with PSX games, other game roms and MP3's. Even without this stuff and a smaller card, several nandroid back-ups can accumulate and take up more space than you expect. added: I am not sure if Titanium also does not verify the targeted files after a back-up. In summary: Check you card for space before backing up stuff!

Samsung Captivate :: How To Free Up Space Without Deleting Applications?

Oct 4, 2010

Any ideas on how to free up space without deleting apps? I really like One Click Lag Fix, I don't wanna get rid of it just for space reasons. I was just looking using Root Explorer and there are some massive files in /data/fota. What are they? I have 3 files, fota.status, (Size 36) and fota_delta_dp1 and fota_delta_dp2 both size 62914560. That seems like a lot, I'm guessing it's measured in bytes so that'd be 60 megabytes or so, so 120 total. Are they safe to remove, seems like the results from the over-the-air update.

General :: How To Free Space On Internal Memory Of XT532

Feb 13, 2012

Now the XT532 (taiwan version) can be rooted, I am interested to know what can be removed. On the internal memory, it states is has 160Mb available of which 95 is already used by the applications on the ROM. So I only have 65Mb available for new programs. I try to move as much as possible to the SD-card, but still i run into the limits very fast. But how do I know what can be removed safely? Also, a total of 160Mb seems quite low for a phone which is listed as 500Mb ROM/ 500Mb RAM. How is that calculated? Is the other 340 all occupied by Android?

HTC Droid Eris :: Free Internal Storage Space For Applications?

Apr 26, 2010

Is there any function or even app on the phone that will tell me how much free space I have for apps on the phone? The "free space" number that is in ABout Phone, or in many many system tools type apps is misleading, because that is a combination of the app space and the working memory space. Since Linux loads that up to be more efficient, it will almost always show some relatively low number (30-40MB in my case) as long as the phone has been turned on for some time. In reality, I only have 35MB of apps installed on my phone, so I have plenty of room, it is just hard to tell. So far, the only place I can find that info is on the web-based side of appbrain. Is there any on-phone location where I would be able to get that info? (Short of actually adding up all my apps' sizes by hand?)
