Storage mounting behaviour - General Questions and Answers

Hello guys, have a question about android storage mounting policy.
My Acer Z500 (Stock rooted 4.4.2) always mount the external sdcard as sdcard0 when it is inserted, and change my internal storage from sdcard0 to sdcard1.
How can I prevent this from happening? I want my external sdcard to be storage1 as I have plenty of internal storage available.

[Q] re-sizing MTK6589 partitions

I own a Lenovo S920 phone [based on mtk6589],
It seems that by default the internal memory parted to "Internal Storage" and "Usb Storage" [when inserting a uSD card it adds "SD Storage".
This cause trouble - because the apps installed on "Internal Storage" partition - when you try to move them to external (SD) storage it moves them to USB Storage, it seems like the phone have 2 external storages (even in root explorer I see sdcard0 and sdcard1)
I had before a phone that was based on MTK6577 - and it had only one internal partition (that was including the system and the storage).
My friend told me that he saw this issue on other phones.
Did someone manage to re-part the internal memory or solve this issue?
The answer will be post on the Lenovo S920 thread:

swap external sd with emulated drive- help

Hi all,
I am using a XOLO Q700 smartphone and tried all possible efforts using xda developer and other sites to swap internal storage to emulated storage. (not to confuse with internal sd to external sd).
I already tried vold.fstab method for all possible combinations to swap sd in addition to mentioned in so many tutorials.
The main problem is my phone has a emulated drive as internal storage and there is no internal sd for apps seperately. I have also attached screenshots for understanding.
link2sd is working for me but data of applications like sygic cant be moved as data files is placed in root of internal sd and not in /android/data/
so only way is to swap sd
Is there any way to swap sd with emulated storage?? please let me know if its there. thanks in advance

[Q] use link2sd with internal sd

I have a rooted Xolo q700i phone. I've installed a external sdcard and which is shown as sdcard0 in /storage. In /storage there is also sdcard1 which is i think internal sdcard. I am not using this internal sdcard. Since my internal memory is full, I want to use this internal sdcard with link2sd.
Can someone please help me with this.
