I,ve searched this forum for answers but haven't found my answer. I have a
Nextbook 7 Model NX007HD8G
Android version 4.1.1
Kernel 3.0.8
Build# JR003Cv008
I bought for my Granddaughter, the trouble is storage. I bought it because it had a sd slot for more storage I thought. I'm pretty good with software issues but have not been able to make the changes I've read about. I've rooted my tablet. What I need to do is swap my internal storage with external but when I read the different info out there I get more confused. I hoping this site will be able to help. I'm attaching how my vold.fstab set up and hope some will change it and send an updated file. Any help is truly appreciated.

Hi everyone,
I'm using a Trekstore Surftab Ventos 8", rooted it in no time and got the PlayStore running. Thanks to you folks!
Now I want to know if there is a way to swap the external and internal SD card, so I can use a big external one for app-data.
There's a file in the etc-directory of the system named vold.fstab which must be edited I think, but i don't know how.
Anyone did this before and can help, or anyone who has a clue?
So, here's what's in the file:
## Vold 2.0 fstab

## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices
######################

dev_mount flash /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/virtual/mtd/mtd9/avnftl9 /devices/platform/mtd/mtd9/avnftlj
asec flash
I guess the first dev_mount Statement has to be edited, but I don't know in which way.
Thanks
Found a solution
Found a solution for my problem here on xda-developers:
Directory Bind
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410262
This little app transfers app-data to anywhere you want and then puts a link to it in the android System so it can be accessed.
Easy to use and much more flexible than switching sd Cards.
Thanks to the developer!!!
My unit is an LG Optimus 3D Cube (SU870) running on official ICS. I need help editing the vold.fstab file so that the phone would swap the internal SD with the External SD.
This is what's currently in my vold.fstab

Ok, guys. I have a question hopefully some with more experience can answer.
In the file above I made a swap and renamed:
_ExternalSd to sdcard
sdcard to _InternalSD
But I didn't try it out because ICS came out and I lost interest for a bit.
That would, hopefully, make the external SD card the main card and more games could be installed.
Would that swap make any problems? Any downsides of this swap?
As I have stated I have a nextbook 8se with a AML8726-M# processor and I am looking to swap the internal for external SDcard space if possible. I was able to root it with the help of the forums here and I figured out a way on my own to get google play running. I have successfully swapped this before on other phones and tablets I just can’t seem to get this one to work. I will post the text of my vold.fstab file here for anyone who wants to put a crack at it. I have tried a lot of combinations but can’t seem to crack it.

This tutorial is not for pico. Because pico has only one SD card (no internal and external SD). This tutorial is to change internal SD to external SD, not to change internal data partition to external SD.
Hi Respected XDA experts,
I bought recently Android box with DVB-S2 functionality. It has internal storage of 4 GB which is mounted virtually however when I try to analyze memory via ESExplorer, it says SD card unmounted. I have downloaded subject file from box and pasted below for your reference. Can anybody help me to make it correct and give ready made file? and I can install it in system.
It has about 450 MB of system reserved memory which I guess is ROM. I want to extent the internal memory further.
I guess this box has modified ROM of 4.2.2 android system and using Mali 400 GPU, and Hi3719C Chip. I have issue with Kodi also, after installation it is stuck at "waiting for external storage".
I hope you guys can provide me help on both issues.
Thanks
