Clarify this post please?
Im pretty sure there is a breakdown list of the internal memory either on here or acs.

The breakdown is here...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16321320&postcount=3
I believe you can repartition the space on the internal 16 GB if you unlock your bootloader and your recovery supports it.

Long story short: I used TWRP 2.4 to format internel storage, which it did. Now it only shows the partition (in windows explorer) as 1.99 GB free.
Should I have not used TWRP to format the internal?
My goal is to start over, completely, by wiping internal and external storage and loading this rom.
I'm S-OFF with DR209 with the .3 update from Captain_Throwback so I don't have the touchscreen issue in TWRP.

You could change the vold.fstab to swap internal with external as you would for some Sony phones (hit the search button, there's more then enough threads on it)

as far as I am aware external mem. card in our Dx is already treated as primary memory, as you can see while installing the games, their data folder is created on external mem. card instead of internal mem., whereas in other jb device its reverse, &
type of partition is Ext4
So I accidently did a TWRP backup to internal storage. According to setting then storage I have 5gb of misc being used. But for the life of my I can't the backup to delete it. internal sd card then twrp only has a 7kb size file. I even went to twrp and cleared internal storage. under storage I still have 5gb plus of files using up my space. any suggestions?
anyone?

If you haven't renamed anything, it should simply be on the root of your internal sd card. Try searching for 'twrp' while you are on your internal with ES.

I have used root explorer and there is nothing on the internal card that is visible. the os still thinks I have 5gb of misc files there. but I find only a couple megs.

Are you on 4.1.2 or 4.3? And if you're on 4.3, did you wipe internal memory when upgrading?

Hmm, seems odd that a reformat of the internal sd card wouldn't take care of that. Personally I'd probably back up to external card and format internal again, possibly with a different recovery if twrp is still causing issues for you.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
if I click on the 5gb misc section only some folders with kb of info I just recleared internal storagr again. and it is still the same.
Pretty sure you're OK after looking at that. Miscellaneous files include all system and app data once uncompressed. Mine is also in the mid 5.5 gb range.
Edit: if anyone else wants to weigh in that would be helpful to get another person's sd card size for misc.

You can't exactly... the "internal storage" in your screen shot is the /data partition for installing applications, that is the normal place apps go. Under normal circumstances you cannot install apps to your internal (12.5GB) storage, it is considered external storage to the operating system, hence why it is in /sdcard0 and your real microSD card is /sdcard1. To use these areas for apps you must use a tool like App2SD, Link2SD, or similar app, and only some apps can be moved, if it has a widget it cannot be moved and there are a few other rules that it will ward you about.
Okay.... So I did what you said and tried link2sd, but when moving apps to SD I get an 'INSUFFICIENT STORAGE ERROR'
And isn't there suppose to be an 'move to SD card' option in this app?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
No, not in KitKat anyways, it doesn't have the SD card support that ICS had, Google hates SD cards for some reason, and has been limiting SD card support more and more in each Android version since Ice Cream Sandwich.
As far as the error in Link2SD, not sure, I haven't used it in years... Sorry.
I can be able to move apps to sdcard0 on omni kitkat rom...guess I'll stick 2 it,other kitkat roms excluding liquidsmooth and omni are a bit laggy

Sounds like you need to format the internal storage then mount it and just for good measure backup the external and format that and then mount too. I had a similar problem and when I did this all is well. I hope this helps.

How do you go about formatting the internal sd card. I just went from 4.2 to 4.4.4 and now TWRP and CWM recoveries will not mount and recognize the internal card. I can't even access the internal card to format it or anything else. How do I go about fixing this. 4.4.4 is pretty sweet.

Thanks for getting back to me.
The problem is the real internal storage is unmountable on my phone. My external sd card it appears to be partitioned as the system and external storage sd cards. There is no sdcard0.
The internal emmc card is unaccessible even in recovery.

Oh got ya. I tried researching a little bit and didn't find the info I was looking for. Could you please be a little more specific. What steps would I need to go through to do this. Right now I'm running 4.4.4 Pac-Man with the internal SD card issues.

Your card needs to be formatted as FAT32. THis limits you to 4GB per file.
There is already a thread about this.
Your card is probably formatted as exFAT and the recovery doesn't support that format.
