HI
I installed Cyanogenmod 11 (cm-11-20140821-NIGHTLY-i9300) on my GT-I9300 along with "pa_gapps-stock-4.4.2-20140608-signed" and "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02". when I goto applications under setting I see that I've only 6GB free and 4.5GB used storage. And under storage I see that I've only 11.5GB storage space when my phone has 16GB. Why is it showing that way? Please help.
Regards,
Ali

That's normal, I think. On my Nexus 4 16gb with CM11M8 it shows 12.95gb storage. It's just not including the partition that the OS is stored on.

Device has 16GB.
2GB dedicated to internal (phone)
14GB is recognized by the system as "SDCARD"
any micro SD card you insert is refer to as "external_SD"
Thanks ,, but how can i make the internal to be more than 2 GB ?? cuz it will be full after one week i will install more programs

You cannot. The system is design that way.
New programs are usually installed on the SDCARD.
Some system programs are installed on the internal when it boots up.
If you go to /setting/application/manage and list all programs, you have a list of programs that all installed.
touching each program will show where they are stored. If you want to move them, you can move to internal(phone) or USB(SDcard/external).
Programs that are installed internal or phone will boot up first. The more you have, the longer boot time.
Some application manager from market will let you choose where the app is installed.
^^ thanks ,, now i got the idea
Hi, im currently a new person that has just recently acquired a clone S5.
Its runnning a mtk 6582 and has 1.09gb of storage.
I am trying to figure out how i can combine my sd card- that is a removable one- storage of 16gb with this storage so i can download more apps and such and so i am not limited to just 1.09gb.
Also i am not a fan of touch wiz and would like to install a custom rom but am not sure how to do so with this clone s5. Help with that would also be very nice and appreciated.
My phone is rooted

So a couple months ago i downgraded from android nougat to CM 13 on my osprey 8GB variant, when I went into my storage section i see that it says that I only have 4GB of internal memory (TOTAL) So I quickly flashed another MM roms like MIUI rom or dirty unicorns to see if the problem was my memory and it still showed only half my storage, the only MM rom that displays my whole storage is Resurrection Remix and idk why (btw my memory works perfectly on any Nougat rom I flash but when I plug my phone into a PC it only shows 4GB, same thing happens with file explorers, they only show half the memory)
Could anyone help me solve this? thanks in advance

File explorers only show the space available to the user.
Explaining more elaborately, I'm using solid explorer. It shows internal storage as 4.54GB. This 4.54GB space consists of the internal storage and the /data partition.
The remaining space is used by the /system and other partitions.
So no matter which ROM you are on, all file explorers will only show 4.5GB storage. There is nothing wrong with the ROM or your phone.
Even though the box of the phone says it has 8GB storage, entire 8GB are not available to the user. About 3GB is required for the system and Android OS. If you check the 16GB variant, you'll see that file explorers will show around 12GB space.

NO NEED FOR SHOUTING, we can read you very well
8g is the total storage space in the tab. A big part of it is used by the system to store the os and you can use only the remainder (which is about 4g). If you need more space i recommend getting an external sd.
