Hi, i have a i9000 with broken internal SD card, i managed to install stock 2.3.6 using a external formatted sd card.
i edited the vold.fstab in order to change the file paths to external sd card
i upgraded to C-Rom 4.4.4 , now there is no vold.fstab file.. how can i change system path for camera etc.. ? 77

Go to /system/build.prop
and change persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=0 to persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=1

thank you for the reply, but this method does not work for 4.4 , i found that i need to use a kernel which have enabled sd card swapping. there is no other way for now. so flashed back to ICS ..hopefully someone will find a new method soon

Another solution here.
Also this. It might work although it's for SGSII.

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

I'd advise going with 1 or 2.
Don't rename the sdcards as it may cause problems....

so i have decided to root my SGSA but when i go into recovery mod it doesnt show any root.zip even if i have already copied it what to do??
You copied the zip file to your ext sd card? Also make sure you don't put it in any folder. Must be in the root of sd card.

As I wroted to you in some other thread, repartition your external SD card. Backup it first ofcourse!
How? Read: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/SD_card_partitioning
Has anyone found a fix for external sd card mounting on Kitkat based roms? Every KK rom I have tried suffers from this error rendering them useless as I cant download anything nor can I install anything...only thing I have managed to do is import vcf file from sd card through file manager and that is all.So if anyone has any solution for this problem please let me know
You should have ExternalStorageProvider.apk in priv-app. Check it if there; try formatting your ext-sd with PC.

Tried that,didn't work.My sd card is in fat32 format @ the moment and I'm on Slimbean 4.3.1 it reads the sd card.I also should say that I have i9070p and I have to replace the tee folder in system/lib everytime I flash a new rom,but I think that it should have the same mount points as the regular i9070 without the p so I don't know why isn't it reading my sdcard on 4.4 roms,but it does read them on older ones,any more suggestions ?

Did you try to repartition it? Search guide - How to repartition external sd card. Here on xda.

No I haven't tried to repartition it yet,but I will try it now and report back...but isn't it for moving apps to external memory ? Thanks

I had problem with TWRP on GB way back (it was not showing), and repartition solved it - so it is not just for that.
Still doesnt work :\ I tried to partition it with minitool partition wizard,fedora20 and cwm still no luck Im on mahdi rom 2.5 @ the moment and my sd is in fat format from fedora disk utility and the same thing happened...I can see it from the settings/memory tab and from file manager and all I can do is import my contacts from there.What these 4 files in the tee folder actually do,and what fs does the kk support? Im running out of ideas why isn't it reading my sd...I should also note that I can see files on my sd card from file manager on kitkat roms,but I can't see files on my internal memory from file manager sdcard0
Try CarbonKitkat. Mine works with that rom, I can do everything with my extsd (sdcard1)
Tee files makes your Gsm signal works and other things that I don't know exactly.

You need to re-partition it, not to format it. Guide is here.

Hi, thanks for replying, I have another query. Do I have to do a complete partition of the SD? Or just remove any kind of partition you have?

You need to repartiiton whole external SD card. Do not do that with internal memory, just external sd.
And stock recovery needs external SD card, if you do not have one it will not recognize anything.

Use a Sd adapter and see if your sd card has multiple partitions that could be one of the cause

it has only one partition FAT32. the problem only found in nougat rom like the new cusrom DOTOs. when i change back to MM like lineage 13 it works well
I think your sd card has multiple partitions too. Let's use Minitool partition wizard to delete a partition

not at all maybe. i found something wrong in root system folder with root explorer. there is must be a sdcard folder in there but i can't access it. it say there is no sd card mount or something like that when i tap it. it (sdcard folder) also NOT a folder but like a file
