Hello!
I am using Micromax Unite 2 with Official ROM (Read Back of my own phone) (ROOTED)
Recently i have Upgraded back my Firmware to Official one, before that i was using
My Phone Rio Lite Jelly Bean on my phone. Everything was fine till then.
After i revert back to official Firmware on my UNITE 2, i am not able to download any data o my phone memory.
I have Repartitioned my internal memory as to get more App storage space. in setting whether i select Internal Memory or External SD card
my data is getting downloaded on my EXTERNAL SD CARD only.
after searching on this topic over internet i came to know to switch internal memory with external modifying vold.fstab
but i cant find it in my ROOT folder.
Please help me out of this !!!
did you flashed the stock ROM or you restored the Previous Backup you had ?
Is it 4GB or 8GB version ?
If possible try to Re-partition for once using the EBR files from kiran anto, See the video in my signature for links.

I have Flashed the STOCK ROM from SP Flash Tool.
its a 8GB Version.
its certainly mis-match of blocks.
try flashing new EBR files of any size and see if it gets fixed.
There are posts elsewhere that stock ROM available elsewhere was having incorrect memory blocks mapping and even lead to a Bricked Device.

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

Guyz i m using canvas A110Q canvas 2 plus....it is running on android 4.2.1.....i have rooted my phone using motochopper....i want to swap my internal sd with an external sd so that i can run high end games....i have a 8 gb external sd....how can i do it....is it the same way as mentioned in the thread for swapping sd for galaxy s4 and s3....i am hesitating for using that method because my device is running 4.2.1 and i m not sure about it...thanx
It doesn't matter if you have 4.2.1, you can still swap your cards with the same trick, modify your volds.fstab file... You can follow the guide HERE
But make sure make a complete nandroid backup first so that you can restore your phone in case it gives a problem..
If you still have doubt, just post your vold.fstab file content here..

Make Application storage from 1 GB to 2.5 GB for MMX A117
Hi there, when i connected the phone to the PC after selecting the EBR files and clicked on Download, the SP tools did not detect my A117 for a long time. It kept displaying "searching" in the status bar below. Also,no yellow prompt came up. I'm using Windows 8. Does the VCom drivers provided in the attachment have compatibility issues with Win8?
Please respond.
There is one application name Meteos 6589 on xda.
Can i use this to increase internal memory??
Is yes then how to return back if used??
You wont be able to see internal eXCEPT the 1.5 Gb, I solved it. You need to reflash rom after ebr changes !
please tell me how to change ebr file

Make sure you have cleaned all the cache. Some app might be taking that space. Check individual apps in apps settings.
If problem persist, then take titanium back up of all ur apps n format phone. This happened to me once and i have to do this painful process of formatting.
hi guys
please help me regarding my magnus problem
to increase space for internal memory for xtra apps

n than i rebooted cell but it only reboots upto first canvas magnus animation n than no process, screen remains on. i tried restore factory setting but still its same. i wanted to swap the memories but i landed in trouble. please guide me. im just beginner in this field.
Hello mates. after a lots of guide searches i finally learnt how to repartition your Micromax A110. So i have made two flash files to partition our Micromax A110. First one is to make System partition 768 MB and Cache partition 256 MB, Fat and Data partition are stock ones. The 2nd file makes System partition 512 MB, Cache partition 55 MB, Data partition 3GB and Fat partition 2 MB. 2nd file is useful if you are upgrading your device to android KitKat as Fat partition is not mounting in Micromax A110 running on KitKat as of now. File name of both files also contains the partition size details. Plaese follow the proper procedure to avoid freezing your device.
Instruction :-
1. Take backup of your data, system and boot in recovery mode.
2. Flash the file in recovery mode ( i recommend TWRP ), don't reboot device yet.
3. Reboot the device in recovery mod again and do a wipe data factory reset.
4. Now wipe all remaining partitions manually (except sd card).
5. Now flash any rom u like to, or simply restore the backup.
6. If all goes well, you can reboot your device now.
Note :-
1. You don't need to flash both files, just flash one which u like.
2. Don't forget to backup before flashing the file.
3. Fat is referred to internal storage of device.
4. Feel free ask questions.
5. Hit thanks if i helped you.
Happy Partitioning !
do we have to do both of them???

ty will this solve the problem of less internal memory n not able to install so many apps on kitkat
Yes sure
Yes bro this will fix your problem for sure, 3gb is enough for internal memory and installing apps.

No bro u don't need to use both files, use which one you like. Both of them partition the memory in different sizes.

I'm pretty sure this isn't due to ram, the problem is caused by low power gpu. We can't load injustice. But I found that gpu performance was a bit better on kitkat rom, so upgrading your phone to kitkat might solve the problem.
any kitkat rom which can get my external sdcard to work as well. since dragonpt rom dont support external sdccard

who says it dose'nt support external sd card. i used this rom and it works flawsless. only internal storage isn't mounting, but it also have emulated internal storage. so the rom uses data partition as apps installation and internal storage as well. so the 2nd file will partition your data as 3gb, thats good for superdragonpt's rom. it does support external sd bro.
take a look
u can confirm here http://forum.xda-developers.com/micromax-a110/development/rom-mmx-a110-t2972561
the only support of external sdcard i got was saving pictures and nothing else. the app and its large data wouldnt transfer to external sdcard. that why if i tried to install large game like spiderman or injustice it wouldnt install due to space shortage.
so which this partition i can access my external sdcard right. as i would like to use 4gb atleast of my external sdcard to install my app n its data. maybe i will later get 32gb sdcard for a newer phone.
storage swap patch
there is a storage swap patch availble, but i have not tested it on current version of rom kitkat v1.1 i mean. u can give a try to it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57010440&postcount=193
thx but i need to know if i change my sdcard from 8gb to 16 or 32gb in future, what method i must do, or how to revert back as well.
and thx u for all the help
bro u don't need do any sofware changes if u want to use a new sd card. Simply just remove your old sd card and insert new one, that's it
