Galaxy S5 :: Storage On Phone - What's Using Up All Space
Dec 10, 2015
My phone comes with 16gb on board, I have had it for 14 months. I checked it and my apps are only using about 1.0gb, with data downloads, pictures and so on the phone say it's only using about 4gb but the rest of it says other 11.5gb. I cleaned the internet history, catch files, all calls in the log, and so on. I can't find what is burning up all my storage space. Is there some hidden stuff somewhere I have to clear or something. I had this problems like last month and deleted like 4 apps so I gained about 1gb, but the phone filled it up with something.

"Unable to move app. Not enough storage space." Galaxy S5 w/ 5.0 on Verizon.I'm sure there are 1000 threads on this somewhere but I'm not finding them specific to my phone. I've just done factory reset, formatted the external 32 gig SD card, re-installed just a couple apps and STILL get the same error message. The phone storage has over 9 gigs available and the external card is empty.

I use my s2 as a storage device to transfer files between home and work but the free space on my usb storage seems to be lower than it should be.The total space says 11.50gb and between pictures, audio and downloads etc its says i am using 3.19gb but it lists my free space at 3.67gb so where is the missing 4.64gb? If i recall i used to have over 6gb of free space so im not sure why this has dropped. I havent added any more files since then because once ive transfered my files between home and work i delete them.

my 32gb Galaxy s6 Edge Plus is running low on space and my Dropbox account that is attached to the phone is also full and therefore is not uploading/ storing my new pictures/videos into the "cloud".Dropbox is offering an upgrade to 1TB of storage for $10/month .... however there is no middle storage plan apparently. It goes from Free to $10/month.what are the best cloud-storage options out there that I can connect my phone to and that enables automatic storage uploads of pictures/videos?

Not a big deal since I moved to another email app, but how are the 2 related?
Does the Samsung app store emails or what?

[Lollipop] Under settings/Apps there is a list of apps together with the number of megabytes it ostensibly uses. I can click on that and see those megabytes divided into App and Date use.
But... Today I uninstalled "Real racing 3", which claimed to use up 84MB (app+data). Immediately after that, the amount of free storage climbed with a whooping 1.14GB ! (and total "App" usage decreased by the same amount).
Is there a more reliable way to find out how much space an app is using?

So I just downloaded an icon pack and an alert popped up telling me I have 2.33mb of internal storage space left. When I go to my settings then select storage, it says I still have over 18gb available of internal storage remaining.

I keep getting this notification that my SE mini pro is getting low on space...but there is 1.6gb on the sd card.I have read a few methods about installing app's to allow me to use the SD as internal/primary storage but all have disclaimers about if it damages the phone.

I have a 16GB iphone but am an avid music lover. I own tons of music. I have iMatch and iCloud. As of right now my phone says I only use about half of the storage space on it in audio. Very litle is used for apps or pictures. I have another half of the storage space in a category called "Other". What is in that category? I would really like to add more music however my storage keeps stating I am almost full and need to manage. I would delete things if I thought it would make more room but it seems to take very little room off when I remove apps and pictures and does not really affect the other category.

I have bought xperia NeoV 4 days ago, I need some clarity on the internal storage space.Like the Internal storage space is said to be 320 MB, but when I have checked in Settings >> Applications >> Manage Applications in downloaded section the system says that internal storage consumed is 279 MB. But when I manually add the space consumed by each applications i get only 126 MB, can I see which folder/application is using 153 MB extra space and is hidden from display?Is the system showing extra space consumed than actual? I have cleared all the cache and history also, even though the phone displays 279 MB consumed. how can I regain that extra space which phone is not displaying.

I am currently using a HTC Desire with the standard HTC visual theme. For the last couple of days I have had this issue where the message that my phone is running out of storage space has been showing up and not going away.I have checked the amount of storage space I actually have available (10,70mb Internally and 3,66GB on a external SD card.) Well enough space to use. I have tried rectifying this by moving bigger applications and games to the SD card (amount of storage space available I posted earlier is after this) as well as emptying my text message storage and image gallery. Yet it does not go away.

So I have a 16GB Galaxy s5 and am down to 1GB of free space, though it's been less than that before and prevented updates. I thought the problem would be pictures and videos but it turns out 3GB are being used for contact storage, this is absurd because I only have 236 contacts. I do have it connected to my FB so I have contact photos on most, but that still seems like a ridiculous amount of space. I've had the phone for about a year and I clear cached data regularly because of the space issue. What do I do? Do I need to delete the contact photos? And if so how? Is there some sort of cloud storage I could use to get the data off my phone?

Any application with Large APK files throw this error.. Smaller APKs are fine, and continue to allow me to move them after throwing this error..
Â
Anything over 80-90MB usually failes with this error..
Â
The External SD Card has 21GB Storage available.. formatted FAT32..
Â
App will transfer fine via Sony's 'Transfer Data to SD Card', but sadly it Transfers 'all moveable Apps' rather than giving you the ability to choose specific apps.. So that method is a huge ball ache!!! Oh and can you give us the option to remove the 'you have 25% of storage left' nag.. its a proper pain in the backside, given there is usually at this point plenty of storage left...Â
Â
I have quite a few Humble Bundle APK's, that are quite big, and are unable to be moved to external because of this issue.. For the record it also does this for Play Store APK's.. I will give JetPack Joyride/ Minion rush as an example...
Â
This issue was not a problem With my Galaxy S5...Â
Â
Yes I know on Lollipop I am aware both the APK and Lib files are only moved to the External SD Card as part of the Apps2Sd feature

If I import my photo's from iPhone to iPhoto and let it remove them from my phone, they come back to my phone through the photo stream which is expected.But if i then sync iPhoto with my phone through iTunes, they also now appear under Albums in the Photo Library. Is this now using twice the storage for the photo's?

I'm using the default iCloud storage plan. Since this is only 5GB, I don't back up anything but WhatsApp besides contacts, mail and notes. I don't even have Photo Stream enabled. WhatsApp only takes up 1.3 GB, and I regularly delete redundant notes and keep my iCloud inbox completely clean (by forwarding emails to my other accounts), which would mean that my contacts take up around 3GB. This is impossible as I have only 100+ contacts and don't sync them with my Facebook contacts.Â
What's even weirder is that the iCloud usage tab tells me that there is 703 MB available of 5.0 GB on iCloud, but is unable to back up my phone due to needing an extra 3.9 GB of storage.how I could manage my iCloud storage more effectively.

I can't even update apps on on my Verizon Galaxy S5. I uninstalled several apps to try to free up room, but I'm still getting "insufficient space" errors. Photos and videos are going to direct to SD card (unless I'm doing it wrong, but I see the SD card indicator). Is there a quick way to tell which app may be putting too much data on the phone rather than the SD card? Or where space is being taken up that can be freed or moved?

I have a w200i and am constantly running out of SMS storage space before having a chance to back up my SMS messages to my PC. Can increase the storage space for them on my phone, or store messages on my sd card? I have 29MB of memory free on my phone and 1850MB on my SD card, and I still have to delete SMS messages all the time that I want to save!

I have just upgraded the sd card to a 16gb. All went well, but I notice that the internal phone storage is just 4 mb. How can I increase the internal phone storage i.e. at the expense of some of the 16gb sd card storage?

Says I have 10 GB left but I'm getting a notification saying "Not Enough Storage Space for System" and another notification saying "Storage Space Running Out". This is causing super slow boot up, terrible battery life, the back of the phone is hot, email not syncing, laggy everything. I tried a cache wipe and cleaning files using All-in-one toolbox. Phone died and this is what happened when I tried booting up after a charge. Any way before a factory reset?

Purchased storage space because iPhone said I was to low. It directed me to iCloud where I purchased more space. Tried to download and upgrade and it still said I'm to low. How do I get my iphone4 to use the storage space?

I have very few apps downloaded to my phone, but I am continually running into problems concerning a lack of available space. When I look at the amount of space each application is taking up, none of the apps is using more than about 7 MB except for email, which is using a whopping 191 MB. I only have 11 emails in my inbox.

The other day I noticed that I was getting close to filling up my phone's storage and so I decided to copy all photos and videos to my PC via a USB cable. I basically "Cut" the data and "Pasted" it in a folder on my PC.
Obviously the photos and videos are now gone and removed from my phone, however the free space did not increase. In fact it stayed exactly the same and I moved several Gigs worth of data from my phone.
I also made 2 x screenshots(Please see below) which highlights my problem in more detail. You will notice that the Miscellaneous file shows 15.86GB , but when you open the "Miscellaneous file" section, the items listed combined space does not even get close too that.

Does your available storage space(s) effect performance? I have about 100MB remaining in Application Memory, 1.6GB in Device Memory, and ~10GB on the media card. I have lots of things installed that I don't use. Also, in the Memory screen, the top item is "Compression". What is that referring to? I would assume that if something is compressed, it consumes less storage space, but conversely requires decompression in order to "run" which would effect performance, right?
