For those of you that want to use the external sd card on /mnt/sdcard so you can have more space for apps2sd try this.
Try at your own risk.
1. download http://pastebin.com/34AeL00L and rename to vold.fstab
2. open up terminal and navigate to the location of that file
3.
Code:
adb remount
adb push vold.fstab /etc/vold.fstab
adb reboot
It worked for me, however i am not sure it will work for everybody because i dont know if the vold.fstab is created dynamically.
I would appreciate it if you could:
Code:
adb shell cat /etc/vold.fstab
and post the result here.
any one tested????? cmon guys
Is the external sd card faster than the internal one? Could depend on the class of the cards, I don't know.
But if it will show any performance boost if using the external that would be a plus
I noticed you cant mount both cards after this mod. Not sure why though.

Same result here. Even after restoring original file. Odd.
EDIT: this is how I modified mine. It looks like it is working (as of now, at least).
Code:
#dev_mount extsdcard /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount extsdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc0
#dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2
Doesnt seem to work for me. Still wont mount both cards on my computer.
You should be able to restore the old file at least it worked for me that way.
and if you repartition the internal 5 gb sd, uniting it with the 3 gb (total 8 gb) x apps and remained free on 20Mega only 7.40 gb total? So that does not see the remaining 20mb that we care? So we could install ;-) Maybe all the externalSD 32GB ......
sorry for English not very well written.
For some reason both cards mount on my computer now. Haven't done this or anything at all to make that happen. My extern mount when i plugin without choosing to share the phone.
hahha my version is working now ů owned thank zou
any know how mount back it ?
sh*t.. does not work for me
would be great, cause you can`t install some really useful Apps like Navigon on external SD...
Gameloft Games can`t even not installed on external...
This is a really Problem, can`t understand that not a lot of people are discussing about this issue...

YOu mean its actually possible to make the Internal Storage and Internal SD into one "large" volume called Internal Storage?
I'm not an expert, I'm trying to mount the external sdcard in /mnt/sdcard/_External like it does in the stock rom
This is Cyanogen vold.fstab:
Code:
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
dev_mount emmc /mnt/emmc 9 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2
With the mod in the first thread I can see only the external sdcard in /mnt/sdcard meanwhile in mnt/emmc there is nothing
Code:
dev_mount extsdcard /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc0
My internal SD in Samsung galaxy s (Bell Model) died 6 months back and I have been using it since then just for making calls. Internal or external sdcard wont mount. After months of trial and error I was finally able to mount the partition created in the external sdcard.
Things I did are.
1. Flashed with JVT firmware
2. Flashed with Semaphore_kernel_JVT_1.8.0 kernal
3. I guess the phone will work only if you have a external sdcard of more than 2 GB
4. If you have 2 GB external sdcard two partition will be created sdcard partition with the size of 18 MB and data partition for the phone with the size of 1.87 GB. The sdcard partition that is created does not mount by itself. To mount the sdcard I made changes to vold.fstab which is in /etc folder.
Procedure
install script manager and mount r/w from market. mount the system partition in r/w mode. browse with script manager as root(change setting in config). go to /system/etc folder. change file permission for vold.fstab to rwxrwxrwx then edit the file as text. change
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/mmc_host/mmc0
to
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2
Change s3c-sdhci.0 to s3c-sdhci.2 and
change mmc0 to mmc2
Save the file and reboot. Thats it your sdcard partition will be mounted. you have to do this each time you flash a rom.
Very nice guide man, this will surely help a lot of people, including my friend who's got the same problem as you did.
Cheers man!
Thanks Magnumutz
Hi, nice guide, i have few phones with broken sdcard, i check this solution. I want ask you, if i need change in original rom vold.fstab, how i can open and archive files for odin?
mavr15, install su file manager, mount system into RW mode, go to /etc folder, CHMOD permission for vold.fstab to 777, open vold.fstab file and edit it as given.
I have i9000, my phone can't start. I boot in to recovery, manual root wit rageagainstthecage, remount sysytem to rw. change /system/etc/vold.fstab. Repartitione sdcard with 2 partition, first fat32 for user sdcard, and second ext3 for /data. my phone sdcard corrupted. But i need change something, my phone boot and i have few error messages.
how can i install file manager where as my storage is zero
can i mount manually and how?
install script manager and mount r/w from market. mount the system partition in r/w mode. browse with script manager as root(change setting in config). go to /system/etc folder. change file permission for vold.fstab to rwxrwxrwx then edit the file as text. change
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/mmc_host/mmc0
to
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2
save to file and reboot. you are done you can view the sdcard partition.
HELP
can someone make a video tutorial please, if they can get it working
seems very confusing from basic uses of odin :S
that's easy just following step by step:
first ,you need make 2 partition on sd with MPT(MiniPartitionTools) 1-EXT4 2-FAT32
flash phone with JVT,also flash Semaphore_kernel_JVT_1.9.1
install any custom rom like CM7 or GalaxyRom_V12_GINGERBREAD_JVT_I9000
put SD into phone and power on,,,,,,
enable usb debug and install rootexplorer.apk
open it and find vold.fstab and follow first post for edite vold.fstab
will the phone work without a memory card if i fix it using this method?

Nope, you need Ext SD card, when trying to do a switch, But easier method is to use a speedmod kernel, which does not need scripts or editing just a two partition SD card and other methods to recover your Internal SD card

Did you make two primary partitions on your SD card in vfat format?
really simple fix for me ..
instlled android 2.2.1 + speedmod kernel .. (which as a fix for internal sd card error)
created a sd card with 2 parttions ext4 2gb and fat32 the rest ..
i9000 ready to work ...
can't understand
and mount r/w from market. mount the system partition in r/w mode

Hello,
in cm10.1, how is this process?
The lines changes:
internal sdcard
# dev_mount emmc /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2
# external sdcard
dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 1 /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/mmc_host/mmc0
And change sdhci.0 and mmc0 to sdhci.2 and mmc2 doesn't work for the recognition
Thank you
Really funny that the internal storage of the Note is called SDCard.
It´s definitly not an SDCard, it´s a chip. The only SDCard in a phone is always an external. Is there any possibility to change this stupid name (whatever you want:
harddisc, storage or just a letter like C:, everybody would understand)?
Thanks in advance

You might be able to change the name by editing the file ect/vold.fstab in the system folder. You should read the following thread:

I´m using ICS TheMidTeam 1.61 with Kernel LQ3.
Thanks for the tip changing the two storages. I´ve read it already.
My question was only if it´s possible to change the stupid name of the internal storage ´cause my GS Note (and I think all Note users all over the world)
has an internal storage. The SDcard is always external. Just SDcard or external would be enough, double name is not necessary.
No other producer for example Motorola or HTC is using such a stupid name.
That´s why i´m asking if it´s possible only to change the name of the internal
storage.
Perhaps somebody has an idea.
Thanks in advance.
This is the standard for all Android devices the first storage that is mountable is always mounted to sdcard so that apps that require space to save files to can be sure there is somewhere to save it to.
Trust me its a very good reason to have it this way. Its been like this from the start as devices did used to only have external sdcards so to save every app dev changing there app it was just kept as the sdcard mount point

Remember this is only for ro ms like liquid, paranoid, or cm9. For other ICS or GB rom the mount points will be different.

It must have something more
Because in the file vold.fstab the internal memory is as /mnt/emmc and the external is as /mnt/sdcard. But they have the mount ponta swapped.:what:

Sd card is also a chip. It's just that the other is internal and the other is external.

I think what zacthespack said is the half of the truth.
My Motorola Milestone with Gingerbread is showing with root explorer the internal storage. There is one folder named "SDcard" and what´s behind: exactly how it should be: the EXTERNAL storage.
A SDcard is by definition a movable chip with a little bit of plastic around.
The internal storage never can be a SDcard because you cannot remove it of the device without damaging ist.
Since nearly 30 years I´m working with a PC. It´s soooooo!!! simple: in C:\ you find the system. If you have well programmed software you have the choice to install it where you want (d:\ for example), bad programmed software goes directly to C:\programs\???. Well done software offers you usually the possibility to put your data whereever you want.
Android stores the apps on the internal storage. With App2SD you can move them to the reel SDcard (external storage), with ICS they are moved to the root directory of the internal storage. Perhaps App2SD moves the apps there because of the stupid name SDcard for the internal storage.
Well done apps like Office Suite Pro giving you the choice to put your data wherever you want.-
I don´t want to change internal to externel (maybe also a matter of speed).
I ONLY want to change the WRONG name SDcard for internal storage to one which makes sense.
Sometimes I think there are engeneers tryin´to invent the wheel again by changing the round form to a triangle.

Would like to point out that the milestone doesn't haven't any internal useable storage it only has the sdcard other than what's used by the system which is completely different . This is my point the first mountable storage is called sdcard to save apps the trouble of asking the user.
And as android is based from Linux it would not use the drive lettering like windows.

Hi zacthespack,
I didn´t opened this thread for talking about the milestone which I have since 2,5 years. Also I´m not talking about its 512mb internal space, which is of course not complete usable (I have 142mb left and this space is ubable!).
I know since years that Android is based on Linux, you don´t have to tell me.
My simple question was: Is it possible to give the internal space another name?
SDcard is definitly wrong!!
If this name is a convention it will be difficult to change it.
If somebody is able to change it the internal storage should be named in future
perhaps "zacthespack".
thanks

Its likely possible to do but I have said it will cause issues with apps if there is no sdcard mount point and as you don't need to have a external sdcard then the internel memory must be mounted to /sdcard
Is it really that big a issue? Yes really android should have changed this by now but its already far to much a issue with the fact the external SD gets mounted where ever the phone company wants it to be.

hi i just flash a cm9.1 stable which downloaded from cm main page
i found out that the external sd card is unaccessable, to be true, the card show no mount for it
there are some ways i did seacrh from the internet
there are:
1.take the sd card out and format it using card reader on a cpu with FAT32 system
or
2.use DirectoryBind app from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625740 (thanks)
or
3.find root, find emmc, move it to /sdcard, rename extenal_sd folder to something u like, rename emmc folder to external_sd, reboot
am i wrong in any state?
i heard that there is a kernel that can fix this problem, but i can't seem to found it :crying:
wish that u guys can point me out, thank you

Hello all, I've been searching for a solution to swap sdcard and internal storage which means real sdcard will mount as /sdcard0 and internal storage will mount as /sdcard1
The point in doing this is because the internal storage is too small, while many of us will play heavy games such as gameloft's game, nfs, etc. and the data will be stored in /sdcard0/android/ . We won't have enough space, so we will mount real sdcard as /sdcard0 so we won't have anymore problem with storage :fingers-crossed:
This is what I've done but I'm just on a halfway done, I need your help!
Here's the original lines in vold.fstab in /system/etc/
dev_mount ext_card /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc1
dev_mount usbdisk /storage/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/msm_hsusb_host
fuse_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 179 15 /mnt/int_storage
Here's what I tried to change:
dev_mount ext_card /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc1
dev_mount usbdisk /storage/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/msm_hsusb_host
dev_mount int_storage /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0
or
dev_mount ext_card /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc1
dev_mount usbdisk /storage/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/msm_hsusb_host
dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0
or
dev_mount ext_card /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc1
dev_mount usbdisk /storage/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/msm_hsusb_host
fuse_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard1 179 15 /mnt/int_storage
or
dev_mount ext_card /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc1
dev_mount usbdisk /storage/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/msm_hsusb_host
fuse_mount int_storage /storage/sdcard1 179 15 /mnt/int_storage
What I've achieved is the real sdcard has mounted as sdcard0 and showed as internal storage when we connect with USB. Yay! :fingers-crossed: We've done what we meant to do ... But the internal storage doesn't mount as sdcard1 . My sdcard is 32gb class 10 so I have nothing to worry about. But I just wondered if there's anyway to fix this problem Plz any dev look for this problem, I think many people want this too as xperia V has a very low internal memory (about 4GB in fact, 2gb has been shared with device memory and more than 1gb is system partition).
I've searched alot, many devices get it worked just by swap the number of sdcard0 and sdcard1 like I did in the 3rd case. But in xperia V, I can't get it totally working.
If you want to try this, make sure you have backed up your rom with CWM. I'm not responsible if you get bootloop / stuck at boot when try to modify this.
Here's the dev_mount arguments , I can't find fuse_mount arguments .
#######################
## Regular device mount
##
## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>
## label - Label for the volume
## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted
## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.
## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices

finally, someone decided to makes this kind of thread
i read that on XAS thread, thats to switch sdcard line to ext_card and vice versa on vold.fstab file. tried, and no success.
its bcoz the line at vold.fstab is abit different from XAS.

Yeah, every device has it's own kind of code and sysfs, I think the first line is right. But I don't know what to do with line 3 cuz it's not using device mount but use fuse mount . I try to add dev_mount but no use ...

I think that is different. That thread wants to move apps 2 SD but this wants to swap internal to external.

I think there is a thread in the theme and app section which does this. Or it may be in the general section. Just search for it
If you look properly in the Xperia V's thread, there's a post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2254918

One of the sollution
I have successfuly mounted external sd as intarnal storage, but there are some limitations. If you would like your applications like camera does not stop working, you need to keep fuse_mount line in vold.fstab. Dont ask me why. Than if you wish still having sd card accessible connecting your phone to USB you have to keep primary partition on your sd card type fat32. So according to this, i have created second primary partiton on my SD card (ext4), than i mount this partition and copied all of the content of internal storage to this partition (cp -dpR ...), and than have created init.d script that remount /storage/sdcard1 to my new partition just after system starts and after fuse_mount do its job. Works fine. In storage settings i see 23 gb internal storage and 37 gb external sd card. This is how i spited my 64 gb card. Init.d scripts works just after you add busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d line into the /system/etc/install-recovery.sh script. Thats all. I am running stock firmware .140. Sure rooted.

Xperia V: swapping internal with external SD mico
dear blackcat510,
i was very happy to have read your post regarding attempts to switch the internal with the external memory storage. unfortunately, it seems that the Xperia V (with the command fuse_mount) is quite unique from the configurations of other handsets. i have rummaged through much of the internet, even entered the SONY forums, to try my luck and find something related to the topic.
unfortunately, your post is the only relevant one, though it doesn't FULLY fix our concerns... i have the same situation as yours and tweaking the file only gives a partial result. it makes me wonder why SONY set up this device in this way, or is this something for all ANDROID devices? i hope that someone would give us a fix soon. my last attempt ruined a 32GB card i had, fortunately, the store i bought it from was kind enough to replace it.
hoping for the best reply and solution soon,
in the meantime, i shall try to see what i can gather about our predicament,

Have you seen the mod here?

It seems some people in the Xperia Z forum have edited the framework to change the primary storage location. This means while sdcard0 remains the internal card, and sdcard1 the external SD; the edited framework tells all apps to use sdcard1 as the primary storage
Root External 2 Internal SD app worked for me! Whoo hop
I'm not much of an android hacker so I beat my head against my phone until I came upon this app. It just worked. I did not want to install any other OS. Just a rooted Xperia ZR. I think I just had to change the setting for the original location of the external card to be /mnt/ext_card
Root External 2 Internal SD from the play store. Sorry I can't post the link, I am a noob.
