There's an xposed module to give access to the external sd. Also on the forum are instructions on how to modify your platform.xml to do the same thing. Did you search?
Not really, because it work it with application sdcard fix

After each reboot the system go to read only. Because of that I can use the SD card...

Ok...you threw me by asking "Do you have some ideas or advice? " in 1st post.
Not at all, I just don't understand why suddenly don't work anymore, I tried the sdcard fix from xposed and don't work. After that I go to see if root Explorer worth and see that the system mount in read only...
Sorry if you misunderstood or I explained wrong, my English is not very well...

Best way is to mod your platform.xml add media_rw... That's it.

If your sdcard is being mounted read only it's failed stability checks...you should copy your data off and reformat it (preferably on a pc and tell it to do a full format...try using fat32 instead of exfat also)....you may have some bad areas on it.
The idol 3 can be very picky about sd cards...I ended up having to go out and buy a samsung because it hated my sandisk one which has been rock steady in all other devices...the sandisk would randomly not mount at all and have to be reformatted.

Just install this app and enable it.

After it's ran and enabled the fix I believe you can uninstall it.

Hi
How can i swap sdcard and extsdcard for i9105p.
I alrady tried tuterials for other phones on i9105p but it breaks the phone and it needs to flash stock 4.2.2 rom again (and root again).
Thanks in advance.
(Actually one friend of mine is working on issue and i'm just asking for him. But if someone put tuterial here i'll root and give it a try later )

of course you break your phone with other phone's instructions
go to setting. storage. format sd card. then this format your external sd card.
go to setting. backup and reset. choose factory data reset and then your phone will be fresh with internal wiped. but also every setting on your phone wiped off
hit thanks if i helped u

Of course you didn't help because he didn't ask how to wipe. He asked how to swap internal memory and sdcard. I'm also looking for script or any-thing else that can do this.
I don't think you understood what I tried to say my freind.
By swap I meant replace extsdcard by sdcard so you can have more storage to install APS for example use a 32 gig micro SD as phone's SDcard partition.
It has to do something with vold.fstab file.
Like this tutorial
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991583
And when I change it the phone won't boot and wiping partitions doesn't work cuz change was made by root access.
Does anyone have an idea how to restore original vold.fstab file without flashing ROM?cuz phone needs to be booted to restore it, but unfortunately it doesn't.

I you have backup of original file, download aroma filemanager http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646108 go to cwm and install it. It will open file manager in recovery where you can restore original vold.fstab.

Thank you
does it need root access?
For example Can I paste moded vold.fstab through this file manager on a nonrooted device then if it doesn't work try another one or just restore original vold.fstab and forget about it?
Cuz I do like mod my phone but I believe root is not an answer cuz I read somewhere it have some procceses before android boots which is not cool.

I think it should work without root, all you need is cwm recovery.
I would say it needs root access and it doesn't, how?
although you can make changes on a non-rooted device but ROM itself undoes your changes so it have no use for modifying system files like vold.fstab.

You can use the build.prop swapping method you need to add, copy and paste these lines on the build.prop located in /system. And you must be root:
Code:
# Switch External With Internal
persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=1
# Storage configuration
ro.vold.switchablepair=/storage/sdcard0,/storage/sdcard1
And please make me the favor to tell me if it worked. If not just delete those lines and save, so your tablet will come back to normal.

no go for me. But, there is always the possibility that I am confused. Will wait for others to try.
CM11 has storage, mount and permissions bugs still to be squashed. Then, and maybe only then will we see a working storage swap. If I ever come across anything, though, I'll let you know

FolderMount
I use FolderMount with next to no issues.
However, it would not automatically move the files when linking folders so I manually moved the files from internal to external THEN linked the folders. After that no problem with those folders except;
DCIM folder link caused my Camera to become unavailable and/or all photos taken were corrupted. Once link was removed all worked normally. Now using Dropbox w/ 50gb and it automatically saves all my photos, so I just removed them fron internal memory after that, freeing up a few gbs
Hi all, I just installed Alien Rom 4.1, did everything correctly, I'm sure, and now I can't use apps that require memory. For example, everytime I try to download something it says I have no SD card, I tried fixing permissions and giving permission via Root Browser, nothing worked. Help?

I understand, yes. This was my thought at first, however I tried to download an app to change them and there was nothing new, it stayed the same. Also, no one is complaining about this on the thread, so I must have screwed something up. Any way to fix it?
I still have this problem, bump? ...
It seems I can't download anything to my sd card through Boat browser. Tried getting the weaksauce apk and it wouldn't download while set to save to sd card. Had to switch it back to internal storage. Anyone else notice this? Is it just Boat browser or Kit Kat? I thought I downloaded some stuff before straight to ad card.

It's a KitKat problem. Won't be able to write to the SD card until we get full root and not just /system/xbin root (WeakSauce).

Not true. You can write to sd with Weaksauce. Just install Xposed and use the Xposed module.

I have had the odd issue or two with it. But also have gone most of the day without trouble. Where I see trouble is usually where I am fiddling with stuff alot. That said, Enabling Xposed is a fast matter and if you don't want it enabled all the time you can just go and do it fast for some SD card work then disable it when done.
I was using Xposed with App Settings changing the DPI and all my stuff, a module to enable writing to SD, a module to hide NFC icon, and GavityBox cleaning up my statusbar and usually had no issues.

Thanks. I'll give that a shot because lack of SD card R/W is irritating me to say the least.
I can't backup any of my apps on titaniumbackup without get an error: Backup Failed: Insufficient Storage...
It all started when I switched my file system from F2FS to EXT4.
I've tried clean wiping.. different roms.. still getting the same results.
Any help
*Edit* I think its a bigger problem. When taking pictures, they don't save. I can't save macro's. I can't backup anything.. WTF!!

Bump... after 3 hours?
Be patient my friend...
Can you see the contents of your "SD Card" (Internal Storage) in any file manager?
If not, try changing your SELinux policy to "Permissive" - use the app "SELinux Mode Changer" from the Play Store (requires root). This fixed the issue for me.

Thanks for replying.. I flashed the file system back to F2FS and everything is fine now.
Has this same thing happened to you or just something similar? I still would like to be able to flash back to EXT4 if need be.

I found myself unable to access the Internal Storage from any app after clean flashing the 7/12 build, after previously having no issues on the 2/12 build.
This caused the same sort of errors as you got - couldn't save photos, couldn't download languages for Swiftkey etc.
