[Guide] Root and swap internal external card for more storage using xxxx kernel......

This is a guide to root and switch the internal storage to sdcard​
Fully working on JB 4.1.1 and 4.1.2
P31xx only
Ideal if you don't want a custom rom​
all files a linked through developers posts no direct links to files​
Warning all proccedures are done at your own risk​
Do Not Cry at me if something goes Belly up Read about each download on devs page before installing​
This is for Samsung Galaxy Tab2 GT-P31XX ONLY​
Read this guide through from start to end collecting all files you need on the way BEFORE starting​
first thing you need is odin 3v1.85
download your version of JB 4.1.x from http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-P3110 if your device is not a GT-P3110 change the device on the left hand side to yours
Install via ODIN and download mode
Now we want to root the Tab2 with CF-Autoroot from http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/4...70-p3110-root-android412-xxdma2-jellybean.htm
Install Via ODIN again
Now you have a rooted galaxy tab2
Check if SuperSU is installed if not install from google play now, while at google play install "Root terminal Emulater" we need this later
now we need a new Kernal to be able to swap Storage so Download kkboot-0.5.2-core-p31xx.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1855700
Download and install Moblie odin from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
copy kkboot-0.5.2-core-p31xx.zip to your tab2's sd card
open mobile odin accept su request and scroll down to install OTA update, zip and select kkboot-0.5.2-core-p31xx.zip. now select flash firmware. accept all warnings
Device now reboots check new kernal installed in settings/about/kernal
if all ok we now swap storage
open Terminal emulater accept SU
enter the command "setprop persist.customboot.sdcard external" without Quotes
Reboot system
goto settings/storage and now you should have sdcard and internal storage switched round
DO NOT REMOVE SD CARD WITH DEVICE ON
any problems start over
If this was useful please thank each DEV when you download there files i have only collected up the info and made the guide

Re: [Guide] Root and swap internal external card for more storage
Dear op......
You have done a good job......this will save lot of tabs from softbricking while trying to swap sd cards....
One more point if you take this in an positive way...
Since we have implimented the swap features in sungsonicHD rom.....
SWaping sd cards will work in both stock and custom kernel AGNi....
So this proved that swap mod will work in both stock ane custom kernels......
So I feel that it is better to edit point number 9 in op.....only if your willing ....to change.......
Rest its the perfect guide ....nic work.....:thumbup:

any chance this can work on CM10.1 ?

I use this kernal and the setprop to make the tab2 see the external SD as the internal memory so when in settings my device now has 29.71Gb instead of the 4.49 Gb on the tab2 7 8Gb version more space for apps etc

Nothing wrong, he is the thread owner

I followed the instructions and everything went smooth, it now
shows I have 32Gb of internal storage.. but when I go to Applications
it still shows that I only have 4gb of space for apps is this normal?
I did this on a Samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 P3110 8GB version

anyone update this?..i have a rooted stock rom 4.1.2..what do i have to do next?..i just want the swap..thanks!

Did you try to move that one app to SD Card?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2

yes i can move to sd card, but this strange memory filling is just happen only on 4.3 jb , by just installing 4 to 10 app like, root explorer , facebook, nova pro,beautifulW, etc, very small apps and it show almost i used 800 mb to 1 gig and i love your beanstalk ROM, which is best 4.3 i ever use and the same thing going on again , now i am on 4.2.2 and i install same above application and few games, and its around 468mb used

anyone can clear my question

Why don't you give people a chance. You just opened it YESTURDAY.

May be if it was more informative. Apps don't change size depending on ROM. So have you used any file explorer to see if you have logs filling in or lost+found folder. SD maid like apps.

Nope. No problem at all. Just copy your data from a SD card to the new one.
16 Gb is a good size as you will need a Nandroid backup. Always use a backup.

look, i used link2sd to do a swap with sd and ext_sd but only move the dates of the app, there's another way to do it but i dont encourage to do it... look in you tube. I read about the last Agni Kernel has got memory swap (17-07-2014 AGNi pureCM v4.2)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2197385
Regarding AGNi sdcard1<-->sdcard0 Switcher when enabled:
- original sdcard0 obb data is available at /data/media/obb
- new sdcard1 obb data is available at /mnt/shell/emulated/Android/obb
- original sdcard1 userdata is available at /mnt/shell/emulated
you can move data between these as required.

but it is for custom roms...
i have no idea if the agni pure stock kernel got this atributte

yup, but if you want to install heavy games into ur tab will be fall in the same trouble... the best solution to the low memory issue its make a memory swap of the SdCard to the ExtSd (I got a 32Gb one and have no problem with the left space in my tab).

New filesystem layout for Xperia V?

Hi,
I am running Neo's Homebuild of CM12.1
And right now I am running into space problems.
As you know the internal storage of the XV is formatted as 2GB and 4GB partitions. System and Apps are installed onto the 2GB partition. The 4GBs are mostly unused, since I save my pictures to en external SD-card.
Now I was wondering if it is possible to change the filesystem layout to have just one big internal storage to solve my space issue.
Kind Regards

this is more risky (if you do mistakes) then our method... also you can get even more space from your external-sdcard

Check third post in my CM12 thread.. You'll find instructions on how to resize the partitions.
