Can u use apples to explain it cuz its like I see my internal that its 2gb and my external SD that its formatted thats why I see 11.3gb.

What switch?
u think the space is an apple. The 2gb is the bitten part n in your stomach. Should left 14gb right? Don't forget, you still have to skin away the outer layer. So flesh left 11.3gb.
Hope you understand my explaination. And sorry for my bad english.:)
Have a nice day.

Nice apple explanation but... think it lacks of procedures about how I'm supposed to have 16gb on internal memory instead of 2gb or it can't be changed?

No seriously. You want to change something that doesn't need changing because of an app that doesn't understand your phone has internal storage. You are supposed to have 2gb partition for app installs and the rest is seen as sdcard. Its not a difficult concept.

Sigh. OK. For those of you that just refuse to search. Allow me to spoonfeed.

Your 16gb space is used by system, data, and sdcard
Its split in a way that the system resides in its own partition and data in its own so that when you wipe data/factory reset from recovery you don't wipe your sdcard.

You don't need more than 2gb partition for apps at this time. If an app needs more space it will utilize the sdcard to store extra data and the app will link itself where it needs to go.

I don't understand how this doesn't seem to sink in. Its not a complicated layout.

Another way of putting it is as follows:

2gb + 11.3gb = 13.3gb.

There's your 16gb, minus formatting space and other junk.

I can explain to you sentence structure and the differences between possessive and plural nouns.

Baby's is possessive.
Babies is plural.

Sentence structure and will take too much of my time, ask your teacher.
