My Galaxy Grand is Device memory shows "USED SPACE: 30 GB" when the total device capacity is 8GB

Galaxy Grand Duos (jelly bean 4.2.2) has a device memory (internal) of 8GB. However when I check in Settings > More > Storage; I find something strange:

Device memory:
Total Space Capacity 8 GB
System Memory: 3.96 GB
USED SPACE: 30 GB
cached Data: 40.39 MB

How is my phone showing me "USED SPACE: 30 GB" when the total device capacity is 8GB out of which only 4 GB is usable internally.

Can anyone help me explain this?

Has anyone else identified this in their cellphone GT-I9082 (Samsung Galaxy Grand). I would recommend everyone to check on this. I have JellyBean 4.2.2 upgraded.

Hey All,
I too had a lot of problems and fed of trying a lot. As per Samsung Executive, the binary does not get updated with the version / update / upgrade patches. This is a universal problem with Samsung Android Devices. Esp. galaxy grand I-9082 devices. hence, I went to the Samsung Service Center and they updated my software. Now the device work awesome. I would suggest to go to Samsung Service Center.

If in warranty: Free software update
If out of warranty: 150 INR
