Code:
LOG=/data/swap.log
umount /storage/sdcard0
umount /storage/sdcard1
umount /mnt/secure/asec
umount /storage/emulated/legacy
umount /mnt/shell/emulated
umount /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1
mount -t vfat -o umask=0000,uid=1023,gid=1023 /dev/block/vold/179:33 /mnt/shell/emulated 1>>$LOG 2>>$LOG
mount -t vfat -o umask=0000,uid=1023,gid=1023 /dev/block/vold/179:33 /storage/emulated/legacy 1>>$LOG 2>>$LOG
mount -t vfat -o umask=0000,uid=1023,gid=1023 /dev/block/vold/179:33 /storage/sdcard0 1>>$LOG 2>>$LOG

I saw some build.prop tweak to swap them(without init.d or any other modification),try to find it in google.
P.S.-I found a way to mount sdcard(ye,4gb partition used in 4.2.2 ) partition throw ADB,but i need help to make init.d script... For now its work correct,no problems with Googleplay(installing apps),camera(save pictures without problems)...

hmm

not to bring up an old tread
But would this method work with any phone or tablet with kitkat on it? Because I'm trying to do the same thing

file partioning MTD has changed in CM 11 4.4.. lets wait for our great developers to find out a proper way for swapping memory.
Use script manager to execute this script at boot..
For GalaxySL = i9003
#!/system/bin/sh
umount /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
umount /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1
mount -t vfat -o uid=1023,gid=1023 /dev/block/vold/179:49 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
mount -t vfat -o uid=1023,gid=1023 /dev/block/vold/179:1 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1
Can't be installed inside "init.d" folder.. Suggest to use /data..
Replace the id = 179:49 and 179.1 according to your device internal and external id.You can check them by executing the command:
mount | grep sdcard0
and
mount | grep sdcard1
to swap change the id.. change the sdcard0 id to sdcard1..
I am currently trying this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48876834&postcount=472
so far so good but havent tested it much, i think games run slower..

Can only see sdcard as root.

I have a HTC One M8. I have a sdcard with 2 partitions. /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 is vfat, /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 is ext4. I've used this to mount the sdcard:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /
mkdir /storage/sdcard3
mount -o remount,ro /
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /storage/sdcard3
mkdir /storage/sdcard0/user-data
sdcard /storage/sdcard3 /storage/sdcard0/user-data 1023 1023 &
As root in a terminal, I can read and write to /storage/sdcard0/user-data no problem, however none of the apps can see it, not even file managers with root access. Maybe there is an extra step involved for KitKat? I'm also using the HandleExternalStorage Xposed module, which at least helps with the vfat partition.
Bump.

[ME176CX] Looking for an init.d-script mount sdext2

Hi,
I am looking for a working /etc/init.d/-script to mount /data/sdext2 on my ASUS ME176CX.
Googling I found several times this snippet mentioned:
mount -t ext4 -o rw /dev/block/vold/<ID_A>:<ID_B> /data/sdext2
mount -t ext4 -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /data/sdext2
Depending on the source of information ID_A and ID_B are varying, but none has
matched the situation on my tablet.
Furthermore I dont know "vold"...what is it? What purpose have it?
Another question: Is it ok to simply mkdir /data/sdext2 or does this need
a similiar "magic" pre-command like that vold-thingy before the real mount above?
I know that LINK2SD creates similiar, but I dont want to use LINK2SD.
Any help is very appreciated -- thank you!
Cheers,
noriatell

cw11 failing to swap internal / external memory

Guys, I'm completely lost in tutorials so pls help me I'm freaking out!
I'm trying to bring to life my mother's HTC Explorer so I installed CM11 (cm-11-20140316-UNOFFICIAL-pico.zip) using some yt tutorial .
It works fine and now I'm trying to increase the phone internal memory. But in vain :'(
I tried:
1) editing build.prop
Code:
persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=1
ro.vold.switchablepair=/storage/sdcard0,/storage/sdcard1
-> no change
2) Trying to execute the StorageSwap.sh
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
umount /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
umount /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1
mount -t vfat -o uid=1023,gid=1023 /dev/block/vold/179:97 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
mount -t vfat -o uid=1023,gid=1023 /dev/block/vold/179:8 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1
-> not working! permission denied
Can someone pls share a proved and easy way to make this work??
