I couldnt find a dedicate thread for Vodafone Smart tab 2. So I guess I ll post this here maybe will help some people.
This tablet is basicaly a Lenovo A2107 (A2107A_A404_010_002_120913_VODA)
- with single sim slot ( call feature restricted - only data enabled) and 4gb storage (1.8 gb user available)
For root - you can use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044496
User isyrider managed to install recovery and pemergency rom unlocking the calling feature also.
I was looking for a way to swap the internal storage with the sd card so I could get more space if posible without installing a custom rom to avoid incompatibility issues that could appear. Directory bind can help with big game files like gameloft but those 2 gb are still not too much . I was unable to install N.O.V.A 3 because it requires 1.81 gb free on sd.
Anyway long story short . To swap internal memory with SD card you need to have root and replace your VOLD.FSTAB file from system/etc with the one I attached.
You need to have root .
Use any root explorer.
Unzip attachment
Rename your VOLD.FSTAB to VOLD.FSTAB.BAK
Copy my VOLD.FSTAB to system/etc
Reboot.
Check in settings, You will see your sd card listed as internal memory.
This combined with link2sd app will give you plenty of space to install anything .
Hope this helps .
Hi icrazy, I've tried this procedure but unfortunately, I wasn't able to copy your 'vold.fstab' to the directory 'system/etc'. I've rooted my unit before I did this. Now the unit cannot detect SD card. I cannot rename/copy/move any file on this directory. please help... How to restore it, Thank you in advance
Hello, I don't understand what happen. If you were not able to copy my vold.fstab what did you change ? I ask this because you must have done something if now is not working.
Anyway it looks like is a problem with your file explorer , make sure it has read /write rights for system files.
Can you please share some light on isyrider? what is that? where can we find it? Google search didn't seem to help me with this
Is there any way in unlocking the phone feature without installing a different ROM? The last time i did that, with another lenovo tablet, i lost my 3g capabilities , and honestly i don't want to repeat that thing allover again.
Thank you icrazy, working perfectly
I have now 2x Vodafone Smart Tab II 7" with 4 GB and 8 GB storage on internal memory
Hi i managed to use the vold.fstab and replace the internal memory with the sdcard but my problem wasnt solved because the tablet also has another partition 503mb of internal storage and when i install any app will install the apps data on that internal storage even if i have sdcard or internal memory as default write disk so after a couple of apps i have the out of space issue because the internal storage is full is there any way to swap the internal storage 503mb ( not the internal memory 1.85gb) with the internal memory or even with the sdcard this is really stupid why have only 503mb of internal storage if the apps save keep saving data on that partition
Regards

Sorry to bump an old thread but i'm also wondering how it's possible to install a custom rom on this tablet. Any help aprecciated
Hello, is anyone of you use the app GL to SD? Does it do the job for you? In fact, there's some issue. For example, the problem for me is that even the data file is said to be moved in the external sd, there's still a copy of it in the internal storage and when I deleted it and I go back to the GL to SD app to open the game, it doesn't load. Therefore, obviously, the game still relies on the data located in the INTERNAL STORAGE in order for it to operate. That's the problem...

It's Working Perfect but I heard that utility NT working only on cm roms.
First of all, Make sure gl to sd have root access. Second you should use file manager and create a file called data and another one called obb in your ext sd card. It depends on the game some can be placed in data others can be placed in obb.

Maybe you mount the folder and the folder you delete is actually in external sd.
Give me a email is more fast to know.
I have the same issue
I have exactly the same problem. I tried Gl to SD on Real Racing 3 and Mini Motor Racing. The application copy the content of data or obb in my external SD Card but the folder remains in the phone. So instead of saving space I'm using twice as much as each of those games should :/ Pretty serious issue. I don't even know if I can cancel what GL to SD did and come back to normal with data internal only. But I tried to start the games renaming the folder in the phone OR the folder in the externalSD and it does not start. A shame.
If anyone have an idea and may know what I eventually did wrong, thanks in advance for sharing the info !
I checked a bit more and it seems that GL to SD functions fine. When I mount real racing 3 a folder "com.ea.games.r3_row" of 1.39 Gb suddenly "appear" in Android/data. This folder is a perfect "copy" of what's in the ExternalSD. If I unmount the game the folder disappear. But before and after my disk space remains identical.
In other words GL to DS mount an image, making android believe a folder is there. But it is here only virtually. The physical folder is in the External SD. It's the same idea as Daemon Tools on PC. You mount an image .img .iso .nrg in a virtual DVD. You can see the content of a DVD in windows eplorer but you know it is not really there. Daemon and GL to SD force your OS to believe that some files are where they are not in order to make a program start.
Other thing that may sound weird : some big programs appear in GL to SD with 0 kb or a very small size. GL to SD moves only what's inside data or obb folders. If a game have nothing in there then no space can be freed :/ Except by moving the application to SD card if your phone does that (HTC, etc). Samsung doesn't. ... which sucks big time.
I tried dozens of "move to sd" apps from om the store on my Samsung S3 but none work on this phone. GL to SD manage to do something really nice already on rooted device. If someone know an app that moves games/app on External SD for devices that does not allow that please let me know ! Thanks
Just to be sure...
lets say hypothetically you fill your entire phone storage up. will there be no room for the game to mount to phone and therefore it will not work? Does mounting fool the system into thinking its in internal storage? or does it actually move it there temporarily? cause if its the latter it doesnt make any sense cuz youll always need to keep 6GB free for 3 2GB games for example...which kind of defeats the purpose...no? does anyone know for sure for sure sure sure what happens?

Foldermount is a better alternative
Or you can use xposed module named OBB to SD(just copy obb folder of your game to sd card/android/obb)

So guys sorry if I posted this in the wrong topic but I'm kinda new here so..
I got a tablet with specs;
OS: Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean
Processor: ARM Cortex A9 Quadcore
RAM: 1GB DDRIII
Memory: 8GB(Expandable to 32GB)
and other unnecessary details like touchscreen etc.I copied the above details from the box.Although it says that it has an internal memory of 8GB, the tablet contains only an integrated SD of 5GB only.Also, there is a small cable which enables me to connect my flash drive to the tablet.
As the title says, I'm running low on memory.I got only 3 games.This is a tablet given by school so there are many apps like IProf by mythware and many more.So I'm here to ask if there is any way to move my games onto an external flash drive or extend the internal memory?
It's already rooted btw.
Hey there , I have a solution for your problem . Its good because you already root your phone . First . Install Link2sd from play store . Then you have to grant for superuser permission . Then you can simply tap on apps which you want to move to your external storage . This gonna force the app to move onto sdcard using Apps2SD method . You also can uninstall a bloatware ! . Here you can have more free space on your devices !
Press thanks if helped ! :thumbup:

But that app can move it to the external flash drive?
Btw I got a problem.I told you that there was an internal 5GB SD.When I pressed "move to SD card, the app moves to the internal rather than the external.
Also, in the link2SD, when I get into an app's details there is a line that says this:
Symbolic Link - Second partition not found -
Then beneath it:
Make sure you have two partitions on your SD card and both are primary.

Sorry but i forgot to mention you , you also need a partition on your sd card . Its mean that you have made a separated memory on your sdcard . How to do that ? Simple ! , Just google "HOW TO PARTITION SDCARD USING MINITOOL PARTITION WIZARD" or search on youtube for simple way , On XDA also got that tutorial . Enjoy
