Reflash stock rom or whatever rom you were using.

Fix your vold.fstab back to original. Then reboot.

Problem- Sony Xperia Tipo sees internal memory as SD card?

Hello. First of all, I am completely new in Android phone so excuse me my noob questions.
So, I bought a new SD Card (Micro SD class 4 16GB) for my Sony Xperia Tipo (ST21i). It's not rooted, not modified. The problem is, that phone sees the SD card in memory options, BUT it cannot install anything on the SD card. What's more, I cannot really tell what's the problem here but Apps 2 SD application doesn't see my SD cards, and recognises Internal memory (2,5GB) as SD Card... Is this fixable somehow? I am stuck on installing everything to internal memory? I cannot also use adb, it doesn't list my device.
Please help Thanks.

DirectoryBind uses Root access guys. If you correctly read 1st post u'd know the person in question hasn't rooted his device.
So that would have to be done first. Now as far as I know you can install apps on the phone memory aswell as the internal memory. I do not know what's exactly the reason Sony mounted internal as sd_card, now with a few tweaks you could change these mountpoints, but again that requires access. I'll post some links in a few min.
Root Method: (always make a backup first)

I wouldn't know a fix without Root...

You need to root your phone and edit /etc/void.fstab
Change ext_card to sdcard and sdcard to ext_card and reboot your phone. Now your phone will show internal storage as your original SD card (around 14 GB in my case)
Off topic people thank SONY atleast you people have got EXT-SDCARD support what we XPERIA U users should say :/

[Question] Install on SD or ext_card what's different?

What is different: Install apk On the SD Card not the ext_SD Card ???
Thx!
Sdcard is your internal 2gb. Ext_card is your microsd 32gb or whatever size you have. In normal unroot conditions, everything will go to the 2gb. Mod your vold.fstab, you can install to 32gb. Remember, nfs most wanted alone needs at least 1.8gb free. No hd games for you if keep installing on the 2gb. Also, .apk file is just a program like nokia s40 .jar file. But hd games download more gamedata not just the .apk.
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.
Thanks,but read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40463837#post40463837
It says:
Install
* On the SD Card not the ext_SD Card

Diferrent?
That? Its based on your current vold.fstab settings. If you use the small internal as /sdcard , install here. If you use the microsd as /sdcard , put it in the microsd. Just make sure the location is /mnt/sdcard depending on your vold.fstab.

If you swap ur internal memory and sd card, you wil notice that in your computer the sd card will become internal storage and internal storage will become sdcard

[Q] Internal SD card

guys plz help!!!
i m struck in a very weird problem i m on rom Turbo Zet v2 by Superdroid-Bond http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498569.....
...........
my internal sd card is not showing in file explorer....although "root explorer is able to show"
In settings also under storage there is nothing related to internal sd card..it only mounts when i connect it to PC.....
whats even worse is the fact that my twrp recovery is also not displaying it...for both locations i.e, sdcard0 and sdcard1 it shows external card....
i've tried clearing cache,dalvik fixing permissions restarting but still no luck......
it seems the problem is not with the rom. if it was then atleast internal sd card would have displayed in twrp recovery...i m afraid its something related to internal hardware......ohh..goddd i m doomed....
Try another recovery also
I'm afraid too, maybe it's hardware thingy. :/

u can try this:
put your sd card on card reader.
remove any sd ext partition u created..
format it..
you use any partition wizard create a new sd ext
flash the rom.
create partition thru recovery, it'll work fine.

Any rom i've been tested like SpeedMod KitKat or Inspiration Rom
