Is your device rooted already?

yes sir.. why?

Have you tried a software solution e.g. foldermount or app2sd as it would be more safe and easy?

The reason there are no replies is because this has been asked many times already. Search for "swap" and you will see there are many threads in this section and the developer section.

Internal and External memory mislabelled/swapped

I have searched the forums and I have seen guides for swapping internal and external memory, but I'm not sure they are referring to the same problem I'm having.
My phone thinks external is internal. I have no SD card inserted, phone boots and saves perfectly fine, but Windows (with the USB drivers) and Kies both think everything is being saved on external memory when there is no external memory!
In Windows it's listed as Card and Phone, card having everything on it, phone being completely empty.
It seems I can't copy files to either in Windows now, I could before.
How do I fix it? It happened after I put Jellybean Italian Job 1 on it.
Thanks.

Pardon me for being rude, however the issue is of great gravity for me. Is there anybody who can ease the pressing pain in the skull of my phone?

First wrong place to post as you will have a dedicated forum for your Model, which can be identified by using the "your device search".
Look here for detailed guide and if undermentioned method fails, you can use init.d method mentioned in it. Make sure you have nandroid backup before any attempt.
Change Red with Blue in vold fstab, and follow instructions as to what you need to do as written in above link
