What does Windows or Mac report it to be?

Win only sees the SD card, I don't know how to mount internal storage. No macs allowed in this house ;-)

All it ever shows is the SDcard. No Android phone allows you to mount the internal storage.

That's what I figured, just was responding to the earlier post requesting I check size from there.

That's strange, I thought I posted on the video resolution post, guess I need to get used to the droidfoums app a bit more.

My friend says on the atrix it shows up as a drive when plugged into the pc for both the internal storage and microsd card.

When I plug the Thunderbolt up to my PC I get a drive labelled "Verizon Mobile" that it thinks is a CD drive. That has 5.81GB used and none free. It consists of a drv folder which has a 5.x GB file that is a WModemX.exe driver file, an img folder with 2 bmp in it and a tl_bootstrap file on the root. I then get a mountable drive that has 29.7 total space (the 32GB card). Anyway, I guess that would almost make sense as I have 2.29 available, although that would be 8.1GB total (5.81 + 2.29 = 8.1) and I have never seen a drive actually have more space then it was originally advertised as. Plus, what is all that for anyway? it isn't the OS. Where is that kept?

Bzzz.. Wrong answer. The Incredible has 8 Gig of "internal Storage" that shows up as another drive. Unfortunately, only the camera, gallery, and a handful of apps can see it (Music players don't see it). It also, like the Tbolt has a drive where the modem drivers are installed, but it is tiny (5.8 mb) and actually can't be seen from the DINC itself, only as a USB drive.

That would be 5.8 MB not GB. It is the modem drivers to allow you to tether the Tbolt via USB.

Just to bring this thread back to the 2 key issues I'm trying to resolve:

(1) The internal storage is reported as 2.6 GB TOTAL size (i.e. I am not confusing this with free/available space). This is seen in android and any of the 3 system info app's I've tried.

(2) System info applciations report the *video* camera's resolution as 720x480, which is 480p. The phone was advertised as containing a 720p HD video capture (1280x720). The video camera application does contain a resolution option, and 1280x720 is listed, but even after selecting this option the hardware reports to system info applications that it is a 720x480 capture device. I am concerned that it may not be true 720p (i.e. it is capturing at 480p then software upconverting to 720p, or something like that).

I emailed HTC today about both of these issues, and one other that is out-of-scope for this thread.

I'll try it out as well, and if I experience the same issue I'll send them an e-mail.

Hi,

I'm the developer of Elixir.

Camcorder resolution problem:

In my Desire when I set camcorder resolution to 1280x720 then Android OS
reports that resolution is 720x480. I try to ask Android developers why does the system reports this value.

2.6GB Internal memory:

Android API supports only one memory card. If a device contains more than
one card, than applications will see only the external-one. If there is an
internal (not unmountable) memory card, than apps won't see it by default.

If you know the path of this memory-card, than you can configure it by
Elixir/Menu/Settings/Extra SD path, and after you restart Elixir you would be
able to see an "Extra" line in the app below the "External" line.

Those are from mine. Looks like the 8gb is there just spread out across file systems.
