How to make Market download apps directly to microSD card?

Hey, sorry if this has been asked before but I wanted to know how I could make the Market download apps directly to my microSD card. I do not see an option for it and when I try to use app2SD, it moves my apps to the internal storage which it counts as the sd card and Icdon't see an option to move them to the external SD card.
I am on stock 2.3.6 rooted with Franco's kernel.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

I managed to swap the internal and external storage in the vold.fstab file so now my mSD card is the internal storage but when I try to move an app from my phone memory to the SD Card, it tells me my card is full but my card still has 5x GBs left since it's a 64GB microSD.
I know it's probably something in the vold.fstab file but I have no idea what since I don't do any coding and such... so it'd be great if someone could tell me what's wrong.

Can't Use Camera After Encryption Unsuccessful Workaround (vold.fstab?)

Hi,
I'm currently having an issue with trying to set up my sd card to mount to use the camera/other apps.
I ran into the encryption unsuccessful bug, and am using the external sd workaround with partitions.
I've tried changing the vold.fstab with some guides, but it isn't working for me...

# internal sdcard
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/emmc 1 /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/mmc_host/mmc0
# external sdcard
dev_mount emmc /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2
This particular fix isn't changing anything for me either:
Code:
# internal sdcard
dev_mount emmc /mnt/emmc 1 /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/mmc_host/mmc0
# external sdcard
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2
[/CODE]
I recently was able to bind /mnt/emmc to /sdcard/external_sd. This enabled me to use usb mass storage mode again (which hadn't been showing up when I plugged in my cable). However, I'm still unable to use my camera and other apps that require an SD Card.
I'm currently running Cyanogenmod 9.1 Stable.
Any help would be great, thank you!

Alright, I was able to fix this myself. Hadn't seen any suggestions for this particular fix:

How did you fix it ?
How did you fix it ? Changes in vold.fstab are not working for me. They seem to be ignored

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] Help Editing "vold.fstab"

Hi,
recently I bring back to life my SGS I9000 with broken Internal chip.
This all was possible through this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdMhYYdMB08
Now I have two partitions 2GB (system-Android) and 6GB to use as SD Card
The problem is there... If I edit the vold.fstab file as in the video, I can't boot my phone anymore it just stays in CyaogenMod.
Now I need help from you to tell me how to edit my vold.fstab file
There is the original one I just copied it from /system/etc
May you edit it for me?
Thank you everyone.

Hi,
As I can see in the video, he is just swapping the mounts. So, according to the original vold.fstab file you copied, I think after the modifications it should look like this:

Is this what you already tried?
I hope it helps.

[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:

Thank you
Thank you so much Heima77, I had exactly the same issue and I could fix it thanks to you.
