I too had the same problem. Do a factory reset and it'll be fine.

ME too
When i install a new rom sometimes my storage shows 13gb out of 16gb whereas mine is 32gb i had to factory reset my phone.Think there's some memory overlap of some sort

Have you also tried to delete the "dalvik cache"?
Also try to delete your "system" before flashing a new ROM.
And don't forget: the internal storage will not be deleted maybe you have some music and some other stuff left there?

Ohh.. I am sorry that it didn't work for you. Might just be some other case. Maybe some expert will come and help you. Sorry that I couldn't help you. Maybe try Cyber's method.

32GB Nexus 5 says I have 12.58GB

EDIT: ***BEEN RESOLVED AND ANSWERED***
Not sure if this is an RMA error. I did just notice this since I was using this new device for about a week since I got my my OnePlus One in early August.
I just recently decided to revisit my Google Nexus 5 (no nothing is wrong with my OnePlus One) since Android L is about to drop officially. Been using it for about 4 or 5 days straight again.
I did go through a VERY annoying RMA process. I finally got one that looked fine but never checked the storage. Is there a way I can confirm that it is indeed a 32GB?
Is it possible for the 32GB Nexus to somehow give me 12.58GB Of free space?
I am kinda pissed off Google's Support team made this error.
Here's the picture.

Its quite common for 32 GB devices to think they're 16 GB devices like yours does. If you search, there's loads of answered threads about it and how to fix.

Reboot to fastboot. It should show the storage. Check the phone box, it should be printed on it.
Dial *#06# replace the x with your imei http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=xxxxxxxxxxx paste the suffix part here and I can tell which model you have.

I cant really remember how to solve your issue. Maybe the fastboot format data command would do the job. Warning you will lose all your data. Oh and try to not use cwm recovery it can cause problems like that you have now.

I use TWRP. But yah I looked it up and NOW I found it that 32GB can be seen as a 16GB. -_-
I searched earlier. They do recommend doing a full on fastboot erase.
Yes I am aware of what fastboot erase <inserthere> does.
Thanks for helping me figure out it truly is a 32GB. Thanks well earned!

Can't flash TWRP or root, odin fails every time

hey, i've been trying to root 920P (S6 Sprint) for whole week now, i've tried everything i found, tried to flash few versions of TWRP, failed at 99%, tried to root directly with CF-Auto root and it fails mid-flash, tried multiple versions of odin, still same results :|

it's really weird, I've succesfully flashed 920F (International) without any problem multiple times. I can flash stock rom so it's not hardware's fault. Am i missing some simple newbie step?
{FIXED}
i was missing newbie step like i suspected xDD i forgot to enable oem unlock
what is the solution ?
i have the same problem. what is the solution ?

my device is sm920A . it is at&t . i cannot find oem unlocker
Possible Solution to Odin "failed" messaged whilst flashing
Warm greetings to all.
I have previously encountered this problem before, ive tried clearing the cache and formatting with still no luck
Eventually I wanted to try something, I loaded my software I wanted to flash on a USB.
I then used an OTG adapter to connect the usb to my phone. I then booted into the recovery ( I have TWRP) and chose install from external storage. To my surprise it worked.
NOTE: I am not sure if this method will work on stock recoveries. Also if you have an external hard drive it works as well
Also note. My S6 is an international version i believe G925F
Wishing you all the best of luck if I was not able to help

I am also recieving the exact same issue however its there when recovery is started, having said that though my finger print sensor is working perfectly still and i have no app crashes in the settings, the only thing i can put it Down to is the new firmware may be partitioned slightly different as i did notice it took a very long tine to flash the oreo frinware compared to all other firmwares i have flashed,
This is the first update for oreo so is bound to be buggy as its in the beta stages of testing the next OTA update brought out will more than likely combat the issue id say its just a bug.

Recovery issue - Stock on boot-loop after patriation changes

Hi,
I tried to Root my POC F2 Pro device today, and I got stuck on boot-loop.
After installing TWRP I didn't manage to find the files in the internal storage (Something to do with storage encryption.) so I saw some videos and Change the partition to exFAT and then to EXT4 and from that moment everything went to hell.
I can't do anything and the device is not botting up. When I try do to anything like installing and new Global room/Wipe/Repair - I get this:

I saw several posts about it, but nothing works for me. like:

I will appreciate any help that I can get
Thanks,

Can you enter in fasboot mode?
If yes https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-use-xiaomi-flash-tool.4262425/
DAAMMM WOW man...! I searched for a solution all night and didn't find anything no matter how hard I tried.
In one comment you fixed everything! Really (really) appreciated!
Thanks again!
@NOSS8 Maybe you can help me root my phone...?
After I installed the TWRP, I enter recovery mode and I see 0MB in the 'Internal Storage'.
I have PIN to the phone, but it's not asking me to write it down when I boot to recovery.
What can I do?
