4.2 and forward see the internal memory differently than the old stock 4.1.
If you go to (system root)/data/media, you'll see the files you're looking for from the internal memory, plus a folder titled "0", which is what is NOW recognized as internal.

its not a ROM problem, you probably had that app installed before, so you need to do next thing:
use root explorer (or any other that have root access), navigate to root/data/app and there you need to remove file of that app, etc. for facebook you need to remove file named com.facebook.katana-1.apk
and after you remove that you can install your app

My l9 running cm10.1 has some sort of weird storage issue.
First of all, it has three storage folders: "emulated" "sdcard0" and "sdcard1". I understand that sdcard0 is the internal memory, and sdcard1 is the sd card (shouldnt it be sdcard and external_sd?). however, what is "emulated"? it has a "0" folder and "legacy" folder inside that have the EXACT contents of the actual internal phone memory card.
Second of all, when i reboot my phone, under the storage settings of the actual phone settings, it says that my sdcard has 1.8 gb (however, like this, when i plug the phone into my computer it shows up as it should, with SD card with 1.8 gb and internal storage at 14.8 gb). then when i mount and unmount the sd card, it comes up normally on my phone but on my computer it shows both internal storage and SD card at 14.8 gb (which clearly isnt right). Also, both have the exact same files and folders inside when i open them on my computer *or on my phone*
if anyone can help thanks so much
can anyone help? id appreciate it lots

You use a ported version, right? If yes, which one is it? Sounds like a mounting issue.

You have a swap script in use. The script is inside /system/etc/init.d You can remove it, unless you have a game that you backed up from stock. From reading your post, i can tell you probably don't need it.

So I found the folder that you're talking about. Do i delete every file i see? And will that solve my issues with the emulated storage and whatnot? Thanks!
Look for something like this
15extsd2internalsd
Just remove that file

Thanks for the help, but I did that and the "emulated" folder still is there. I don't know what to do anymore. Also, my computer still shows both storages as having 14.8 gb
Did you reboot? That emulated stuff is going to stay. Its apart of the 4.2.2 android changes to the system.

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.

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.

I tried clean master, and moved es file explorer, after that I checked my sd card. There was no es filemanager apk or its data. I checked in internal memory it's still there
I don't know what it does. But in android 4.2 you can't move apps to sd

Did you deleted clean master. Before uninstalling you need to restore apps otherwise it won't work.

if you have not deleted clean master try restoring the apps back to phone storage

You Can't move all apps to sd card. It is restricted by app developer
But You can move it using Link2SD App which allows those apps to be moved to SD card..
*Your device should be rooted to use Link2SD App
Download Link2SD from Play Store
Link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.buak.Link2SD
Thanks each & every post which helps you...
Can anyone tell me how to restore sms from sdcard, I made a backup during boot unlock and s off but nw it is not detecting backup files from sdcard.. I am on still on at&t rom only
Thank you

What did you use to backup your SMS messages?
You sure you picked the external SD as your backup location, and not internal storage?
I think in stock Rom we can't pick sd r internal storage but when I backup sms the file in sd card ,after bootunlock and s off it's not showing any back up file even though file are there in same place .

Are you sure you picked the removable SD and not the internal storage ("virtual SD") for the backup location? If you picked internal storage, I think this gets wiped when you unlock the bootloader.
Hey thanks for your reply ,problem solved when I install dev edition
