[i9001][MOD]Swap Ur internal and external sd card! - Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development

Hey guyzz....this is an awesome tweak...it will swap ur internal sd card with the external one!
I have seen many forum members requesting for a method to increase the internal sdcard memory to enable installing games, which generally require high memory storage space or storing maps for example for standalone GPS navigation system. Again such maps requires to be stored on internal memory card for them to work. All this is possible using this mod.

Nice trick for gamme......

@ sakindia123
Does this Mod actually works, have u modified your vold.fstab after u get the response that it does not work.
Want to increase my interal SD, but only want to try it, if it really works, dont want to reflash ;-)
Can someone confirm that the mod is still workin, Screenshot would be nice.
Thanks

Route external SD to /sdcard in stock (2.3.3) based roms

What's up all,
I have a question about stock-based (2.3.3) roms.
I like to switch between CM7 and stock based roms once in a while, which is for the most part not a big hassle, but the one thing that does put me off to switching back and forth is the fact that I have to move app data back and forth between internal and external sd cards all the time.
I know what everyone is going to say: Just have internal sd at /sdcard in CM7 via the new option in CM parts, but I'm reluctant to do this. I have alot of apps that require huge amounts of data in /sdcard. As such I would much rather have my external sd at that location, and have internal at /mnt/emmc for random storage.
This works out great in CM7, but I was wondering if there is anyway to achieve something similar in stock roms.
So? Anyway to route external to /sdcard in stock-based roms??
Nevermind. It was a stupid question.

Yes there is a way but it breaks the ability to mount your sdcards to your computer via USB.

In that case it actually pretty easy. You have to edit 1 file. /system/etc/vold.fstab
I find it easiest to do directly from the phone using root explorer. Of course that means you have to be rooted:
- In root explorer navigate to the /system/etc directory.
- At the top of the screen select Mount R/W
- Open the vold.fstab file in root explorer's built-in text editor by long-pressing on the file and then choosing to open in text editor.
- In the vold.fstab file each sdcard has its own entry. Part of that entry is the mount point. One of them says /mnt/sdcard and the other says /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD. Simply swap the mount points. You have to keep the names the same and you can't rename the mount points to anything other those 2 options. Just swap them and reboot.
Now your internal sdcard will be mounted at /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD and your external sdcarf will be mmounted at /mnt/sdcard.
Its not ideal but it's the only thing I've been able to find that works without too much hackery.

Going from memory (phone is off now) sdcard said 4.8 GIG and Phone Memory said like 1.5 GiG ....

Any way to delete sd card?

Hey, is there any way to remove or stop the internal SD card on the Blaze? I hate that it's only two gigs, so I can hardly store any apps on my phone. I have a 32gig sd card that's in my phone and it would be really nice if I could use it for apps and not just music

Have never personally used it, but give app2sd a quick Google, of course root is required.

I'm guessing that it could be done by editing the boot image and a few system files. It's some fairly hefty editing, probably not worth it.
I opted to change the configuration of my apps like Navigon and Opera to save their files to /sdcard/external_sd

But the problem with that is that for example, if an app that i download requires additional data to be downloaded, it usually downloads to the internal SD card, or the USB storage. And also, i just bought Asphalt 7, which is 1.36 gigs, and it wont download onto my phone. I dont have enough memory in either my system storage or my internal SD storage. But, i have 5 gigs of space left on my external SD card.

There's a app called directory bind that automatically moves all contents from internal SD to externel SD. I currently. Have 1.4 gigs left and have zombie defense pocket legends and some other apps. Installed here is link with directions and apk.

Directory Bind just move the data downloaded from internal SD to external SD card. It mean, games ( or app ), required more 1.4Gb free of storage space can't run in Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G, because internal memory don't have enough free space

If you want to play this games, try this
1.: Backup your purchased APK's Asphalt 7
2. Odin back to stock ( If you're using custom ROM like Dark Knight )
3. In Stock ROM, try to format USB Storage
4. Odin CWM and Flash custom ROM via CWM
5. Try to format again USB Storage, after format, your Internal Memory have 1.40Gb of storage space
6. Install Asphalt 7 and download data ( 1.37Gb )
7. After downloaded, don't play this games, install and use Directory Bind to move it to external SD card, You can download in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410262
Whoa La ! Asphalt 7 is your !
If you want to play another gameloft that required more than 1.37Gb free of storage space ( like MC3 or The Dark Knight Rise ), after done the job for Aphalt 7, continue from step 6-7
You can move your games to SD card before download the data
Has anyone considered editing /etc/vold.fstab to flip the internal and external sd mount points? Should be a pretty simple mod.

has this been resolved yet? Currently running cm10 but going to go back to stock if this sd card issue can't be fixed to work properly. If this does work do I have to manually do this every time I flash a new ROM?

Internal/External SD Memory

Hey guys, I'm sure this is a fairly common problem that us "Blaze" users are having issues with but I haven't figured out a way around it. As we all know, Blaze only came with about 1.5g of "Internal SD" memory while the "External SD" memory could be expended. This becomes a problem as the "Internal SD" is the default storage for apps, especially when you are trying to download a game that is more than 1.5g. I've looked into "Directory Bind" app but that's only really to move the app files from internal into external, AFTER it has been downloaded and install on the phone and point to its new location. Ive heard about Internal/External reverse mount tweaks, but haven't found one specifically for our phone. Does anyone know if there is a way around this? So what I'm basically asking is this: Can we use the External SD as the default storage for apps and games? And have the apps/games installed to the external SD location?

For those running some iteration of the stock Touchwiz-skinned ICS rom (whether custom or just stock rooted), you can always try flashing this (md5 829584F66F2F13419639A0F77AEC2033) in whatever non-stock recovery you happen to be using. This replaces the vold.fstab with one merwinski tweaked (so the internal/external sd swap stuff happens), and includes a script I put together that moves some relevant files from one to the other for you (in other words - anything you selected to move to SD via Settings > Applications should still be there and usable after flashing this). All usual disclaimers apply (i.e. I'm not responsible for breaking blah blah etc.), but if for whatever reason you want to go back to how it was before you can flash this (md5 A38CD198B5DB73209441D4A6250D33C4) and that will undo everything (including the file moving) that was done with the first one.
Hope this helps folks, and just because it bears repeating - THIS HAS ONLY BEEN TESTED ON STOCK ROMS, NOT ANY OF THE AOSP/CM BASED ONES! IT WILL VERY LIKELY NOT WORK ON THOSE!

I thought it worked...
Alright, So i'm running CWM and I used your VOLDSwap. Now, It worked from the look. my phone storage is 3gb now and my SD is 1.2gb. so when I look at all my storages at the same time, I see my phone storage (1.2gb) my USB storage, which is now my SD card. It was 1.2 gb now its 3.8 gb. and my SD card which is now my USB storage at 1.2gb.
here is my problem, in theory I should be able to install to the "USB directory" because that is now my actual SD card, however; when I do this, i still bypasses my USB storage (my actual SD card) and still installs it to my actual USB storage (1.2gb and also being recognized right now as my SD card) so what can I do to fix this? I love that my USB storage says 3.8 gb, but it's pointless if it still uses my Sudo USB storage of 1.2 gb? is there anyway to rewrite the install directory. because It still installs to my phone but instead of going to the USB storage like it used to, because my USB and SD are swapped now, it instead heads to my USB which is labled as my SD... it's like.. no matter what I do I can't get it to install to my higher gb storage location.. any help would be beyond appreciated.

Alright, So i'm running CWM and I used your VOLDSwap. Now, It worked from the look. my phone storage is 3gb now and my SD is 1.2gb. so when I look at all my storages at the same time, I see my phone storage (1.2gb) my USB storage, which is now my SD card. It was 1.2 gb now its 3.8 gb. and my SD card which is now my USB storage at 1.2gb.

Convert External SD to Internal SD Android (Specially For Low Budget Devices)

After installing a couple of games and apps, Android tells you that you are out of storage space. So you head on to ebay and buy the largest sd card your credit card can buy. You slap in your brand new sd card and head on to install more apps, only to find out you still have no storage space left despite moving apps to sd card.​
What is The Problem?
Android tablets in general, has a different directory structure compared to Android phones. Mine has 504MB for apps (in system), 2.08Gb Internal storage (sdcard), and mounts external sd cards as (extsd). By default, external sd cards (extsd) are only used for media storage. Unfortunately, apps only recognizes sdcard, so your media files will still need to be transferred to internal storage for it to be played. What's the point?
This Is A HACK
This hack will swap the position of the internal sd card to the external one you bought earlier.

First of all your work is highly appreciated.
Secondly u mentioned that this process is tested on funbook talk p362. I have it too.
But the adb drivers are nowhere to be found.
You will say turn on USB-DEBUGGING and it will install drivers automatically. but no none of that works...tried with internet connection on. but driver update says no driver found for this device.
I ll be highly thankful to you if you helped me rooting my funbook talk. or provide me the necessary drivers.
and for your information i downloaded a ADB Drivers.rar file....and it installed drivers too....but android sdk does not recognises the adb device.

Didn't work. I'm assuming app needs to recognize usb as extSD and so it doesn't work. Is there a method I can do editing vold.fstab. I've seen others on the forums use this file to make external sd read as internal but I haven't found how to make usb to read as extSD.
Like this for example http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1757767

Quick Recap
adb shell
mount -o remount,rw /system
After this you need to edit the file /system/etc/vold.fstab. There will be two lines at the end:
Change this:
dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/sdhci-tegra.0/mmc_host/mmc2
dev_mount usbdrive /mnt/usbdrive auto /devices/platform/tegra-ehci.2/usb2
to this:
#dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/sdhci-tegra.0/mmc_host/mmc2
dev_mount usbdrive /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/tegra-ehci.2/usb2
