Hell everyone I'm not a tech but just an Android user with a broblem. OK, I own an ainol numy 3g Chinese version. It came with 1gb ROM, 4gb Ram storage space, I also install a 16 gb SD card in there. My problem is that, every thing I down load apps or data it goes to a 1 GB internal memory storage. And the 4gig storage is there untouched and the phone doesn't give you an option as to where to choos to store your data.
However the sd card was being recognised but the system was not automatically using it. I had to manually coppy data to it. All of a sudden the system unmounted the sdcard. It would no longer see the SD card.
So I decide to root the phone and install Root explore to check if I can detect the sauce of the problem.
First thing was I try to write to vold.fstab and Rexp reported that the system is not mounted. Same thing for the 4gig storage and the sd card. So I downloaded adb tool.
When I try to check for my system adb reported that the system is un available. Go back to root explorer it reported that my USB is not mounted. Can any one help me to solve this problem. Thanks in advance.

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

Sorry to bump an old thread but i'm also wondering how it's possible to install a custom rom on this tablet. Any help aprecciated
Hello everyone,
This is my first post here. I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace 5830i and today I bought a new SD card because the old one was crap. I had this problem before, I have it now. When I try to download an application from the Android Market, there is always this error ''There is unsufficient storage available''. I checked and I had 23 free MB of Device memory and 1.8 GB free on my SD card. I read a lot of articles about this problem and tried many ''solutions'' and nothing fixed it. I will be really, really thankful if anyone can help me fix this. Cheers!
Try MarketFix by Felipe Aaon
You could also use Link2sd to make room on your internal storage.
the error you are facing is because once your internal storage is filled by approx. 85-90%, it shows the error - Insufficient Storage available
Try moving your apps to sd-card from settings/apps. if you moved them already, have you rooted your phone? If yes, then you can partition your sd-card to make space on internal storage. this can be done either Minitool Partition software for PC or through your CWM or TWRP recovery(needs root and custom recovery flashed)
what it does is, it takes a part of your sd card and converts it for internal storage.
If you have problem with the Playstore, you can root and install a newer version of the playstore. try this though i may not be sure about this
Google for the method as i cannot posts links currently
Cheers
Hi.. First of all I am new to this forum (actually a semi-noob on android stuffs) and I don't even know if I posted on the right thread (If I did please let me know or delete it or move it to where it should be and I'm sorry).
I've been searching for a while all over the internet to find a solution on how to recover the missing 2nd partition on the internal storage of my tablet but I can't seem to find a solution. How did I end up missing my 2nd partition? I think this is what happened:
1.) I installed a custom rom (cm10) on my shw-m180s, and it worked fine at first. I was able to download apps until my internal phone storage got full so I decided to make a partition on cwm (so that I can put some data files and apps there by using link2sd).I went to recovery mode then I put 2gb as ext and swap file as 256mb (if I'm not mistaken) because I have a 16gb internal sd card (I don't have external sd card though), after that, I rebooted then checked if I am able to use the ext part but I was not so sure so what I did was to do a full wipe and deleted everything (data,cache,dalvik cache, other format options on storage) then reflashed the original stock rom.
2.) Now I manage to use my stock rom and checked if I managed to restore the 2gb ext, but no, it didn't show on my internal memory. It only shows 14gb (or 12.68gb to be exact). So clearly the 2gb just went to some place I don't know where exactly and I don't think it was completely gone maybe just hidden somewhere in my tablet. I installed link2sd to check the partitions and it says that SD Card 2nd Partition not found.
3.) Tried to reformat the sd card through laptop (even used minitool partition but that too didn't work) and now I am stuck. I can't seem to find a way to recover that 2gb internal memory.
Hoping to find some answer here in xda where there are lots of experts and good people that helps others.
Have a nice day everyone.
Hell everyone am not a tech but just an Android user with a broblem.l OK, I own an ainol numy 3g Chinese version. I came with 1gb ROM 4gb storage and I install a 16gb SD card. My problem is every thing I down load is going on a 1 GB internal memory storage. And the 4gig storage is there untouched and it doesn't give you option to choose where to store your data or downloads. However the sd card was being recognised but I could not download to it, again no option but at least one could see the sdcard is mounted. All of a sudden the sdcard was unmounted and the phone wouldn't see it still inserted.
So I decide to root the phone and install Root explore to check if I can detect the sauce of the problem. First thing was I try to write to edit bold.fstab and Rexp reported that the system is in mounted. Same thing for the 4gig storage and the sd card. So I downloaded adb tool. When I try to check for my system adb reported that the system is in available. Go back to root explorer it reported that my USB is in mounted. Can any one help me to solve my problem.

Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
There is no forum for your device. Try posting your question in the forum linked below.

The experts there may be able to help. Good luck.
Hello all. Not sure if this question has ever been posed but I have a problem that deserves the attention of the pros here at XDA. I recently purchased a tablet with Android 5.1.1 lollipop with 16gig internal storage and 1gig of ram. After loading the device up with apps I started noticing that I was rapidly running out of room. I installed a 32gig sdcard formatted as fat32. After rooting the device and installing Link2sd I came to find out that this would only work with an ext partition. So I reformatted the card with two partitions, the first being in fat32 and the second in ext4. So far the device seems to be running pretty smoothly and was able to link all app files to the sdcard via link2sd. The problem here is when I check the storage in the system settings it shows all of the available space in the fat partition as expected. When I check the storage in link2sd, es file explorer, or any of the other file manager apps, it shows that there is only 502meg available on the sdcard. I was wondering if anyone here would be familiar with a problem like this and could advise me as to what I could do to fix this. Thanks
