[Q] [Help a new owner!] Incoming massive request for help.

First off let me thank everyone who is going to help me through my issue.
Everything started yesterday when I got a16 gigabytes new SD Micro card. I originally got the card so I can move my applications from the internal 16 gigabytes storage to that SD Micro card . After searching through the web I have realized that I cannot move my applications to the external memory until I root my device and so I did it using a guide from this website. after rooting my device I downloaded every application in play store that is used to move applications from the internal memory to the external one.And for some reason all of them failed'Someof them said that there is no enough memory. and some others said I have no External memory inserted "already checked in settings and it says external memory 14.98 Gb free. After that i read another guide which Said I should get Rom manager to partition my memory card.and I did download the Rom manager . I tried to partition but it said I don't have CWM , and it asked ifit should install it so I accepted. mydevice wasn't listed. I chose a random one and now I'm afraid I have broken my 3 days old note 10.1 . Could anyone help me please with
1. The Sd micro card issue(apps From internal memory't external memory.)
2. The random CWM device that I have downloaded and maybe installed.
3. Partitioning my card (if that's going to help.)
4. I'm new to android and have no idea what rooting is "although I did it anyways" and how I Can use rooting
Rooted note 10.1
Thank you again <3
Edit 1- 8 views no help? Id really appreciate it if anyone could help me.

I think some sort of reply will help you get started...
Note 10.1 only supports FAT 32. not NTFS. So you have to format your SDcard properly to begin with. I believe its true, you need to root your device to get AppOnSD support.
NEVER flash anything that is not intended SPECIFIC for your device. Always do a backup so you can restore it from an image if you happen to soft brick it.
Rooting pretty much allows you to get "super user" functionality. Most notably the ability to access system files.

I'll try to help with fixing your Note.
Can you get into download mode? Start with power off and press volume down and power at the same time.
If so download Check Fus (GGI version) from fus.nanzen.se and make you have Odin and the Samsung drivers as described in the how to root thread.
Check the back of your Note for version number; N8000, N8010 or N8013. Use Check Fus to download the correct rom for your country. If not the nearest one.
Follow the how to root guide (sticky in development) that explains how to install the rom. This should put you back where you started. Now, read a lot. Don't use Rom Manager.
http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-note-10-1-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-10-1/ How to root instructions. Your replacing the rom from the instructions with the one you downloaded from Check Fus.

Yes bro, I'm using it now.

So, when you say you've broken your Note, what's broken?

I said I think I broke my note because I downloaded and installed a random cmw from Rom manager when I tried partition my sd card .
And I have a problem moving apps to the sd card. In app2sd it says it's emulated andin droids it says memory is full.

Then I'll back out. I've no experience of apps2sd on the Note. Have had no cause to use it. I strongly suggest you read a lot more before you attempt anything else involving door, partitions or CWM.

The CM10 roms comes with init.d support. So it is always better to use int2ext script for enhancing internal memory. Essential requirement is you have to have a 4 or 8 gb class 10 memory card.
Here is the tutorial for using int2ext http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1926399

First check whether the partition is supported by the rom/kernel or not. I recommend ext2 if you are using the latest version of cm10. Also check whether the partition is set to primary mode (logical mode is not supported).
Try int2extv2+ script by placing it in system/etc/init.D and set the permissions by checking all the boxes with the help of a root file manager. Then restart. You are done with that.:beer::beer::beer:

[Q]swap internal and external sdcards.

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.

[Q] Is it possible to change/buy new internal sd card at any phone shop ??

If i can change internal sd card will it fix the problem that happen when i tried to make a new partition on my internal sd card for swap ??

i believe the sd card inside is a chip is soldered (or glued) to the board. if you want to go this route, you need to find a tablet with cracked/broken screen and swap the guts.

As the previous user said, it's impossible to swap the internal SD card.
If you messed up with partitions, the software-only solution is to flash a stock ROM with ODIN including your specific model .PIT file.
BE CAREFUL to use the right one for your model, there is an instruction thread on how to do it.

Well, as long as you used the correct ODIN (mine is 3v1.87 and I know it works) and the correct PIT and ROM files, this is the standard procedure for repairing any software-related problem.
Give the age of the model, seeking a service center for a hardware repair is not advisable.

No, sd-ext is the external (removable) SD card, it has nothing to to with your problem.
Furthermore, the ODIN + PIT method that I suggested should have removed TWRP and reinstalled the Samsung Recovery!.
Probably you're not doing the ODIN restore correctly
Follow this guide, step E, but ensuring that you are using the specific files for your model

[Q] I really need urgent help

Hi there
I have just purchased lenovo vibe z2 pro
as it is the Chinese version, so, I tried to change things and enable the google services
then I went Into recovery mode and installed the new ROM from the SD card
it seems to be not suitable for the phone, as the phone was stuck to the lenovo logo (the only change from previous Chinese logo)
then by mistake I formatted the SD, then the problem began
I can't perform factory reset (tried many times)
I can only access the phone recovery mode
I can't access or read or browse the Phone memory on my computer (only I see lenovo suite installation files
what can I do?
I want to access the SD card to put the original ROM on the SD so that I can install it back
or give me any other solution please
thank you
