[Q] Vold.fstab file problem

Hi, I'm new here, new as registered but I've been reading this forum a long time, but well, here is my problem.
I was following a tutorial to exchange my external sd card for my internal sd card, so I could install there anything I wish, but I screwed it!
One step of that tutorial was erase the information of the vold.fstab file located at /etc and later rewrite with another, exactly this:
Original vold.fstab file

I did it from my device, and after reboot, I couldn't open camera, gallery, and the most important thing, now my device doesn't read internal or external SD card, so I can't do anything, my question is How can I manage to get the original vold.fstab file, I tried editing it and paste the original vold.fstab information, but that doesn't work, and I haven't done a backup either...
PS: Sorry for my bad english
PS2: I'm a dumb
PS3: Thanks for reading!

I had similar issue with my other phone. I had two choices - reinstall ROM in CWR or place vold.fstab in /system/etc throught ADB. I don't know if it will help you.

I thought that if I could get another vold.fstab file and paste in the /etc I would fix the issue, but I can't connect the mobile to the pc and I can't download files from my device either, so what is ADB and how can I put a vold.fstab file again using just the device? Thanks ^^

My phone is trash now I guess...

Just flash stock ROM with nvflash or smartflash

i lost my original vold.fstab. how can i solve it ? anyone ?

Same situation here ;( I replace the moded vold.fstab but it didn't work. Also, I haven't done a backup.
So, how can I replace the original vold.fstab?
Android MIUI Rom

knowing which rom + OS you're on might help.

I tried ADB before and I replaced the original vold.fstab but the sd card is still not available.(USB debug mode)
Here's my steps:
cd c:\SDK\tools,
adb devices,
adb remount,
adb push ./"vold.fstab" /system/etc
Any wrong step? Or any more solution? PLEASE HELP ME!!!
Android MIUI Rom

Sounds like ur on Windows. That's basically what i wanted to know.
Do
Code:
adb push vold.fstab /system/etc

sry for doublepost, i failed.

It doesn't work as usual, anyway thanks.
I reflash a rom, and thats work.

Corrupt sdcard. Can't access the camera.

Was on the Lanlight Alpha when my sdcard became corrupted, now flashed to AOKP. Figured that it has nothing to do with the ROM, but more so JB itself and how our phone handles the sdcard when on it. Now have to use my external as my internal, but by doing this my camera app won't start up, saying "there is no external storage present." Tried editing my vold.fstab, but I guess I'm doing it incorrectly because it would just stick onto the loading screen when booting up and would never move on.
vold.fstab looks like this

[Q] Problem with EXTERNAL SD CARD

I have try many things and lost many hours and can't find a answear to my Problem.
I have rooted my Optimus 2X and have installed the rom:
[ROM][JB] [4.2.2] Avatar ROM for LG Optimus 2X (p990) - Updated[Feb 28, 2013]
I want to use my 32GB SD Card for all my Apps but the internal memory of 8 GB is splitet into 2 Partitions
The First 1,48 GB this use the Phone to install apps
And a Second with 4,64 GB this is shown in every App as the SD Card but it isn't.
The 32 GB SD Card is listened but i can't move any Apps into it.
I have tryed many programs like Link2SD, Mounts2SD, Root All 2SD and have formated 2 Partitions 1 in ext4 the other in fat32 but nothing works.
Is there a way to made the internal Memory to one Partition and the Extern to the other?
In Root All 2 SD can i say that the App saves everything on the External SD but it thinks the Second 4,64 GB Partition of the Internal Memory is the External SD Card.
Can someone please help me? i try since 10 hours or more.
Sorry my bad english.

i have found a way now and it was very easy to do:
i have edited in the internal memory in the "etc" folder the file called "vold.fstab"
i have changed this:

maybe have someone the same problem with this and can fix it like the way i do.
And all thanks only goes to God :good:

I have had galaxy i9000 7-8 times in the past (because i switched occationally and sgs always fashinated me to buy)
the directory @limnaln said was the right directory but in 2-3 models, the directory for external sd card was mnt/sdcard/external_sd.

Yep, someplaces its sdcard1, someplaces external_sdcard.

ok guys it's work but when i use camera it's fine, but fast reboot when i want install app, tryed with root browse and whatsapp...what i have to do? tryed with 3Wipe and formatting sd but always reboot after downloading an app and during install

I think, you should change ROM to another (for example CyanogenMod) and try one more time.

i can't because my internal sd is corrupted and when i tryed to install cm 10.2 it say "waiting sd mount 20s" :crying:
my sd card is /sdcard/external_sd auto....it isn't /mnt/sdcard/external_sd...and i don't know why...and this change can't find my internal sdcard any idea?

Maybe i can try this solution:
Code:
For i9000, Do the FULL wipes and factory reset first (formating the Internal SD card will greatly help, so safe all your contacts, images backups to PC or Ext SD card First) Use i9000 Rescue kit with heimdall or on linux , select files as follows...
primary boot > boot.bin
secondary boot > Sbl.bin
repartition > s1_odin_20100512.pit
factoryfs > factoryfs.rfs
cache > cache.rfs
dbdata > dbdata.rfs
param > param.lfs
modem > modem.bin
kernel > zImage
The reboot may request for "Confirm password", just enter any password about 5 times until prompted that, "this will wipe the card." Yes wipe, ..Should solve the problem
but only found hotfile's link that not working now

[Q] So What can i do With tap P1000

i have tap P1000 with damage internal memory and i do this post with this method
1-Format the external sdcard with 3 partitions all of them primery I used a 16 GB card with the follwing
Partition 1: 9 GB Fat 32
Partition 2: 5 GB ext4
Partition 3: 100MB Fat 32
2- download this file GB-Stock-Safe-v5.zip‬ from 4shared.com/zip/HTtNUmFx/GB-Stock-Safe-v5.html?cau2=403tNull&ua=WINDOWS
3-remove 2 files hidden.rfs and movinand.mst
3- boot to recovery mode and flash the file GB-Stock-Safe-v5 after remove to files hidden.rfs and movinand.mst with odin 3 v1.85
after restart i found this error
--updating application...
E:can't open directory '/preload/app/' . (no such file or directory )
copy application failed .
cant access to 'system/csc/seb/system/'
but i continue :silly:
4- boot to recovery mode and flash Overcome_Kernel_v4.0.0 i downloaded from androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390225151984927181

Any update
??? any update ???

In your vold example, you are assuming the chip is still showing up. If that is not the case, your internal and external storage may get swapped around now and then depending on when the broken one showing up or not.
You may want to open up the tab and remove the broken chip. If not, depending on how broken it is, some chips are still showing up now and then.
Remove the chip, partition external, and you don't have to modify the rom.
