Hi,
Here's my problem.
I've sucefully rooted my Xperia J, but I'm falling on a doubt: I installed link2sd with root privileges and tried to transfer apps to my 16 GB sd card. But the phone tells me that this card is an ext_sd partition and link2sd is transfering things to the phone memory wich is called here SDcard.
How do I manage to transfer and link apps properly in the "real" SD card? I'm trying to install Nova 3 in my phone but, with 2 GB of internal memory its almost impossible to put the data files in there.
Thanks since now.
Edit: I'm using a stock 4.0.4 Android version 11.0.A.7.5 (I just bought the phone)
No it will not work. Nova 3 will want to stick huge data to internal sd (the 2gb). Better do vold.fstab unless you download the datafiles via pc and do foldermount.
Now using:
Sony Xperia tipo ST21i
stock 4.0.4
11.0.A.4.22
(rooted, locked bootloader)
Current problem:
Cant get past installing flash drivers in xp.

Yeah, I tried the folder mount and installed the game, but even with that, tha game told me I didn't have enough space to install so I gave up.
I guess I'll have to install a custom rom that allows me to do everything inside the bigger SD card.
If anyone has any other ideas , I'd appreciate.
Thanks anyway.
You can still install it if you do mod vold.fstab. Ive installed alot of hd games to the external sd card this way. You should check J vold.fstab.

Plzz give me some solution on this
Hi Friends,
I have Sony Xperia J running ICS. When I connect it to computer in MTP mode, duplicate files and folders are created automatically in External SD Card. However these folders are empty and on deleting this folders they again regenerates on next time when I Connect the phone to pc. Also Phone Antivirus and PC Antivirus are up todate and they dint report any virus.
Any one experience the same thing. Do someone have the solution for this.
The duplicate files and folders that are created are having same name as the original one...
Is it when you delete the folders, it came back again? Definitely a virus on pc side. Try kaspersky or avast, and not avira free. Can you delete the unwanted folders using the phone?
Now using:
Sony Xperia tipo ST21i
stock 4.0.4
11.0.A.4.22
(rooted, locked bootloader)
Current problem:

I checked it with Kaspersky that is a premium version. It shows no virus.
It happens that Two folders with same name is shown, one is empty and one is with the files which are originaly there (say some Photos in Images Folder) Two folders with name "Images" shows in the SD Card one is having actual photos in it and another is empty. If I delete empty Images folder then it gets deleted and after that when I disconnect it from PC and check with with File Manager in Phone, then the actual Photos that were in the "Images" is not shown i.e. Deleted (though I have not deleted them but only deleted the empty IMAGES folder)
This happens for all the folders...
Is there any solution.....?

Did it happen on mtp or mass storage or both? It seems using pc companion also causing this issue. So to avoid it, I just use mass storage with pc companion turned off.

I am not using PC Companion. I have uninstalled it from the PC.
It happens only in MTP mode. But I require to use only MTP mode because I want to copy data from internal SD card to External SD card. Internal SD Card is not available in Mas Storage Mode.

There are 2 ways first: navigate /settins/apps then select an app that can be moved to sd then select move to sd card.this is called native apps2sd which just moves the bacic app files.
Second: partition your sdcard with partition wizard choose what size to make the second partition and format it as ext4. Then down load link2sd app from play store then open it a popup message will appear choose ext4 then if you have done everything right then it will say "mount scripts created please reboot your device to mount the second partition" then there you go extra memory for your apps if you go back to link2sd press menu then multi select then choose which apps you want to move then press actions then create link then the apps will be moved to the second partition. and from settings you can choose auto link which will auto link newly installed apps. This is the best as it moves all app data files to the second partition which leaves you system memory free and fast.
Make sure you backup your sdcard to your pc before you try the second option as it might erase all your data i am not responsible for any loss of your data every thing you try on XDA is by your own choice and at your own risk!!
Ive got a better idea for you. Just do vold.fstab trick and youll get bigger internal mem. You can even use your 32gb microsd as internal and do link2sd to the microsd at the same time.

Both needs root. For vold.fstab, you just need to mod the text inside the file. Need easy root method? Try unlockroot.

Use this. https://www.dropbox.com/s/f77twwjxhimocxv/ishuaji_root_sj.exe Its a chinese rootnig app. Just click the big green button. Install ADB Drivers first. Search universal adb driver. Then click next button (the layout will be>>previous, next, cancel) like the usual installer. I just used this against a hard to root Alcatel One Touch Glory 2S 4010x and able to get root.

what do you mean? not have internal mem? internal mem is 150mb....
i have 16gb sd....so i want to swap it....can you tech me how to swap?
No, that is for system. Check your storage menu, you only have internal (the 150mb one) and the 16gb microsd only. If you really want swap, check darktremor app2sd, but there are lots of work to do, and its kinda hard to do it on mtk phones (this alcatel is mtk). If you pick link2sd, its much safer. Just need to partition sd card into 2 (fat32 + ext2).

Please anyone direct me to vold.fstab method tutorial which will work on Xperia e
Thanks

try mine...
replace your vold.fstab then reboot...
do backup your original one before use this...
ps: you need sdcard with class6 or more (class 10 would be better)
and don't worry about your ext2 partition, it's works as well...
enjoy...
