Memory and Storage

Your device has different types of memory and storage options.
•
The
internal storage
is about 11.6 GB and is used to store downloaded or transferred content along with
personal settings and data. Some examples of data stored to the internal storage are
alarm, volume and language settings; email; bookmarks; calendar events; photos; videos
and music.
•
You can use a removable
memory card
with a storage capacity of up to 32 GB to get more storage space. Media files and some
apps (with their data) can be moved to this type of memory to free up internal storage.
Some apps, such as the Camera app, can save data directly to a memory card.
•
The
dynamic memory (RAM)
is about 2 GB and cannot be used for storage. RAM is used to handle running
applications and the operating system.
You may have to purchase a memory card separately.

Improving memory performance
The memory in your device tends to fill up as a result of normal usage. If the device starts
to slow down, or applications suddenly shut down, you should consider the following:
• Always have more than 100 MB of free internal storage and more than 100 MB of free
RAM available.
•
Close down running applications that you are not using.
•
Clear the memory cache for all applications.
•
Uninstall downloaded applications that you don't use.
•
Move applications to the memory card if the internal storage is full.
•
Transfer photos, videos, and music from the internal memory to the memory card.
•
If your device can't read content on the memory card, you may need to format the card.
Note that all content on the card gets erased when you format it.
If you are using a device with multiple users, you must log in as the owner, that is, the primary
user, to be able to perform certain actions such as transferring data to the memory card and
formatting the memory card.
