Is there a mod out there that mounts the external,removable micro sim card as the internal sdcard, and the internal as the external? I have a 32gb class 10 SD card and at this point it is practically empty because all of my nandroids are on the internal SD. It would rock if someone could make this and inwoukd definitely donate to the person who is willing to help. It is getting annoying because I am already almost out of space on my internal SD. Thanks in advance

I'm not sure how to answer your original question but you can move nandroid backups to your external sd card and if you need it, move it back later.

Yes i know that, but that takes too way too long and it is a pain in the ass. But thanks
what would possibly warrant posting this in the dev section?
I swear someone did this for the international. Or it may have been another phone I have but I know its been done. But even the Dec who wrote the script.to join the partitions said he wouldn't use it on a daily driver. I think it was just more a proof of concept

It can be done with CM7. There is a setting in there to swap the cards so that the internal will be emmc and external will be sdcard. Some people have accidently swapped them and didn't know how they did it or how to get it back to normal.

So I haven't flashed a nightly rom since cm7 nightly build 10 because it disrupted my SD card. So I haven't been on the forums since then so I feel out if the loop. Do we know if my SD card is fried and unable to use again. And if so where's the best place to get a new one

Back it up if you can, and if not you could lose all your data on it. I know a lot of people get them working again with just a reformat sometimes you have to use another device to format it completely...camera, xbox, or PC,...I use my digital camera and it works great

I have been running the powerwashed eh09 gb rom with tks kernal for a day now... I would tred lightly with the cm7,aosp gb roms....I read on rootzwiki some are still having sd cards fried.
I'm not sure about the fried sd-card on CM7 but CM7 has been working great for me and highly recommend it. Especially, with the nightlies.
I could never successfully run CM7 or any other MTD based rom. CWM would never mount my SD card and CM7 constantly told me my card was damaged.

Thanks for this reply because it seems everytime I warn folks about those roms, somebody will chime in how well it works for them. Which is perfectly fine but in reality its a crap shoot and cm7,aosp,miui may work for some, but fry others sd cards.
Just wondering, JJHunter, do you use the sdcard that came with the phone or did you buy a new one?

The SD card issue was due to a kernel change that was reverted. There is no SD card issue now.

Yes I know... but I still wont recomend those roms to new users for the simple fact they could easily flash the wrong version and bork a sd card.
I got a 64g class 10 SD card for Xmas and want to move my apps to my SD. I've tried apps2sd from the play store (all of them) and it says something isn't supported or recognized (something along those lines). I did the mod with script manager swapping the internal and external storages which essentially gave me 60 gigs of internal and 10 gigs external but the gallery, camera and a few other things were sort of borked.
I was talking with a buddy that said apps2sd worked for him with his 32g class 10.
I have less then a gig of storage left on my internal just from apps (my music, pics etc are on my external).
Is this a 64g SD card thing or am I doing something wrong?

Your friend is lying, most likely. That or its not apps2sd.
Not that you need that anyway. You need something to move the associated data, like DirectoryBind. Moving little piddly apps under /data/app isn't going to do much for you.

Check out the mod under android development that swaps the internal storage with microSD, so essentially your 64gb sd would be swapped with your 16gb internal, and all apps would go to sd by themselves.

BIG DISCLAIMER: DID WORK AROUND REQUIRES A KERNEL WITH INIT.D SUPPORT. GO GET PERSEUS HERE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35458451
http://db.tt/dGKp7Ljo
In this dropbox are two SD Card Swaps. One is for a card formatted in exFat and one for Fat32.
If you use TWRP you'll be fine with the exFat one because your card is most likely exFat already. If you want to use CWM go get a program that will format your SD card into Fat 32 and flash the Fat 32 zip.
NEXT DISCLAIMER: In the event that radios are leaked you may want to remove the swap before flashing. It will most likely screw something up. You can remove the swap by going into the etc folder, clicking on init.d and removing the file that is named similarly to the zip file

Really?
You are the second person to literally not read this thread.
The OP DOES NOT WANT TO DO THE CARD SWAP.
You even quoted a post from him saying why he didn't want to.
i didn't see any priors threads to this so i am asking is this possible i don't see any options in the app managment section and app2sd card pro didn't work do custom roms have this if so i will be rooting asap. EDIT: Looks like i have found a way around it those of you interested in moving big data to sd card, app does require root but works flawlessly in my experience so far http://market.android.com/search?q=pname:com.slf.ListglApp

It is there you may not have searched with the correct terms.
Apps2sd hasn't really worked in a while on a lot of phones. Least that I have owned.
If you flash a custom ROM you can do an SD card swap. So if you had a 32GB mem card it would become your "internal" and your 16GB would become the "external"

Though I haven't tried it yet, there are reports that directory bind works on the note 2 in a similar fashion. I hope this is true because the nand in the phone is much quicker than a card.

I can confirm that Directory Bind does work providing you're on a non-4.2 rom. Android 4.2's new multi-user feature causes Directory Bind to not properly mount apps to the external SD card.

meaning anthing works so assuming stock jb rooted will work fine this will solve so many problems for me as my internal is already full
And that's what chaps my hid about our devices... In my apple days I hated deleting things to make room ... android could set themselves so far apart from them with expandable storage and they don't use it as they should

exactly is this a os limitation is this somethjing possibly that some of our devs can work out in the future and do other newer devices have this issue or is it just the note 2?
I have flashed CWM correctly, I have done everything right. I have reset the phone many a time, and am not a stranger to ODIN. However, the Fascinate I'm working on WILL NOT RECOGNIZE ANY ICS zip! I know for a fact that it is not a bad zip, but when I try to flash it, (no matter build 1 or build 2) the phone says "E: Can't open /sdcard/<ICS package name here> (bad) Any responses are welcome! I have to return this phone by tomorrow, so I could REALLY use some help here! Thanks again!
EDIT: Just tried flashing the latest stable CM7.2, the exact same thing happened. Help is needed drastically.
Could be a number of things. it is recommended that a CLASS 6 or higher SD card be used. Also known problems with the USB cable. Try using different ones. Are you by chance following Droidstyles Guide ? Located in GENERAL section, it is known as THE GUIDE for our fascinate. Read it through and follow it to the letter.

to add on: you may need to format your sd card, but I wouldn't go that drastic yet. try what ice mentioned first
I am using the correct CWM, and I have tried using every guide I can find. (including the one you mentioned) I don't know how to check whether or not my SD is CLASS 6. I have not tried flashing the files from internal SD, however. I own 2 SDs and am not opposed to formatting one of them. The other is full of valuable data, but if necessary I can back it up.
Should say right on card what class. I'd try your other cards, or buy new.
And like Z said, it could very well be that needs to be formatted.

Well the SDs do not have a class number on them. One of them has a little 2 in a partial circle, does that mean anything? And I think you have to use ICS build 1 coming from GB.

It means your SD card is a class 2 ROFL. And no you don't have to go to ICS coming from jellybean that was used when jellybean first cane out you haven't had to do that since 4.1.2 so now it causes nothing bit problems just go straight to gb

Oh, great! Is there internal, mountable in CWM storage? I'm pretty sure the Fascinate has 2 GB of internal memory, and CWM fixed for CM7 doesn't seem to recognize any flashable ROM packages from external SDs. So could I use build.prop to switch internal and external SDs, then flash the ROM from there? Will that work?

Yeah, this isn't actually MY fascinate, it's my friend's. I just want to know if build.prop hacks could take effect outside of Android, and still do their desired effect in CWM. (For instance, switching internal and external SDs)
