I`ve problem with my Note, I bought it few days ago and no matter which ROM I am using, it shows me that I have only 8gb memory. Shouldn't it be 16 gb? Is there anytging I can do to get full memory? Or maybe it is some kind of malfunction?

Sorry i have bad news for you. Its only have 8+ gig of memory because he superbrick his phone while in ics, this is ics issue, it corrupts the partition, so what he did he uses the pit partition work around to solve the problem. The negative result of this is lose of 3 gig memory, the normal memory is 11gig if your device is 16 gig note and you will experience frequent fc and slowness of the device.

Is there any way to fix that? Sending phone to Samsung or something?

Im sure the owner of that phone had no warranty, if he had he will not sell it, because he only have to claim the warranty and his problem is solve. So best solution is to return the phone and get your money back. If you cannot then you have to live with it or sent it to samsung and try to claim your warranty, if your lucky and for some unknown reason they will fix it for free. If not, you have to pay them 200 bucks.
So, I can not repaired it? Well, I didn't had FC nor my phone is slow. Just to make it clear: my phone won't explode, kill my family or summon Cthullu? I can still using it, except i will have less memory?

Hi,
I suddenly got a lot of force close on my phone and made me have to reboot the phone.
I see that those force close started after the internal sd card scan, I am curious that if it may be the problem of the internal sd card.
Even I did the factory reset, it still keep on having the same issue. I rooted my phone. I dont know if I need to get it to the customer services or can handle it by myself.
Can anyone gives some suggestion?

May I know what is the purpose of flashing xxkb3?
To fix the firmware?
If yes, the phone is flashed with the original firmware by the samsung's customer services yesterday.
Its a mysterious thing.u should replace the done.

It seems that it may be related to the internal sd card, sometimes, I dont know when, the sd card is not detected by my phone and cause the issue. May be I should take to the customer service center.
Thanks
Take it back to care centre.

Take it back to care centre.out can also happen when internal memory is corrupted, only solution in such situation is replacing mother board.

Yes, it works. I have two micro SDXC 64gb cards (class 6 and 10) that both work well on the phone.
How much did you guys pay for those?

Class 6 I got late last year for $79 and Class 10 I got from Amazon when it was on sale for $50
Im clueless about the classes but the higher the class the faster or better quality the card is?

Yes, the higher the class the faster the data read and write speed. but regardless, class 6 is plenty fast enough for anything you do on the phone. But since the price is so close to each other, I would suggest just getting the class 10. You can always use it on your digital camera (newer ones that support it) if you don't use it on the phone. fyi, make sure you format the drive in FAT32 (let the phone recognize the card first before putting it into your computer).

update
Received my Sandisk 64gb Micro SDXC card today and it was a complete FAIL. Tried to format it in the note, it did not work. Kept saying sd card is blank or is in unreadable format. I tried to format it in FAT32 via CMD on my PC, did not work. I tried to format with other programs did not work. Spent the last 4 hours trying to get this to work to come to the conclusion that I must've received one that was part of the bad batch that was released to the public. I will be returning this one and exchange it. *sigh I'll likley have to wait until next week to try out the new one since its a holiday weekend.
My note wouldn't read it out of the box. I put it on my S2 and formatted it under settings. Then my note started reading it. So you can prob try a different Android phone and format it from the phone... I thought I had one from a bad batch too at first but that fixed it. now it works like a charm.

Ill try that but i doubt it will work. My pc doesnt even recognize it. It shows it as a drive but it cant do anything with it. Format it, copy files to it...etc etc

nope. i never use ebay. I don't trust it. I got it from amazon. I will say this though...amazon was just the middle man when I first bought it. I returned it already and will be getting a full refund while my new card will arrive tomorrow, but it was purchased from amazon directly this time.
Update. I got the new card and it wouldn't format on the note,but it formatted easily on my pc and works like a charm now. Only issue IM having is that it won't transfer.files above 8Mb/s. Not exactly the 30mb/s that it's rated it. Could be a number of other things causing this, but I'll update once I figure out why it's so slow.

Seller is amazon. returning it and waiting for another one. *sigh. what format do you have your card in?
I just popped it in my s2 first then under settings i hit format right off the phone.. I originally put it in my note but it wouldn't read it. Wouldnt even load.. After i did the format on my s2 it worked. I uploaded movies, music and used about 70%of it and it runs smooth with no lags... Its a speed 10 btw not the six one idk if that makes a difference or not

What could have been the problem where most users here had internal memory or chip failure? The rom we used or hardware instability?

I know you have been very helpful in the p1000 thread, but I'm not trolling here, please don't bash me.
Actually does anyone feel that it is a manufacturing internal memory failure or we are just bunch of unlucky ppl who happened to have bought a tab with malfunctioning internal memory?
Sent from my Nokia 3310
Not bashing you. But just disagree with the estimation you put.
I think it more likely some percentage of units have chips that are bad.
Also, do they fail within warranty period?
In manufacturing it is not that easy to weed out bad parts.
Btw, there are threads talking about using external sd only.
Have you tried that? Apparently with class 10 cards, the tab performs relatively well.

your not alone
your not the only one with that problem,as for me i just successfully recovered 210mb of my internal sd card,ddnt knew much of what i was doin so i ended up with a messed up tab,but cheer up,theres always hope for those who find ways

Ya I read around about using the external sd as internal memory. However I found ppl saying that some custom roms do not run well, so I just leave my tab aside and find the time to learn how to use the toolkit. Thanks for the info.

Hi all. First post on the One forum. Great phone so far, but only had it a day. Can anyone tell me what the hell is taking up nearly 8gb or my 32gb storage. This is obviously all the storage we have and if it's the system that is taking it up...well...I'll not be happy!

Yes, that is the system files. I think on my US TMO one it used up about 5 or 6. I remember having 27 Gb, but I had installed a couple of apps by the time I thought to look.
EDIT: You can look for a custom ROM that has less bloat, or you can root and uninstall files from the storage.
You can use 28GB for your app/music/photo etc.
5 GB are for system...

That is about right for my US system as well, but evidently the OP had 8 Gb used up on his phone.
Hello there guys, my note 3 is having serious lag with waking and when I lock the phone.. I'm not sure if it's because I downloaded the new family guy game.. But wouldn't that be ridiculous on a phone with 3gb ram? Anyone have an idea?
Mine did that. I took my SD card out and it's back to normal. I don't know why but it works.
