Seen as I can't ask in the actual Resurrection Remix thread cause of having to have a certain amount of posts, I ask here...
This is for RR 2.1
Has anyone figured out how to get /mnt/emmc to be mounted as /mnt/sdcard/external_sd.
Have been trying, from different threads, to edit vold.fstab and build.prop to no avail. (only get bootloops)
(used root explorer as other file managers cause bootloops sometimes even for small edits)
So if anyone has gotten it to work with this rom could you show what and how to edit the files. It would be greatly appreciated.
Why do you want to mount your internal memory as your external memory?
I would like my actual 8GB sdcard to be mounted as /mnt/sdcard/external_sd
and the internal memory as /mnt/sdcard
Cause right now the 8GB is /mnt/emmc
and the internal memory is /mnt/sdcard
So I'm guessing from your post that its not supposed to be that way to begin with?
but either way it was like that in GB roms and it was so much more convenient to go to straight to the external_sd folder instead of going the extra step of going to mnt/emmc.
And some apps can not find files that are now in /mnt/emmc. So I have to put them on the internal memory.
It was faster to work with.

hey pal check this Multimount sdcard app from play store hope it might resolve ur issue
ps- the emmc / external sd issue is related to AOKP since in AOKP the EMMC folder is ware u find all ur external sdcard files and folders
But isnt that just for mounting sdcard on your PC while its still mounted (accessible) on your phone?
yea, but im wondering if there is a way to get it to actually mount in the "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd" path or anything. as long as its accessible via a folder in the sdcard.
It makes many things so much more convenient.

Thanks.
Just one more wondering thought. but is there a way to do it like the first link so it starts on reboot, without the need for extra programs (like editing a file or making a startup script)
If not, then its fine, I'll be happy with these.
So I put Carbon on my wife's tablet after not touching it for over a year. Amazing that I can come here and get exactly what I need. What a great community!
I do have a question. I have a 16gb model and a 16gb card. I can see and use the card, no problem.
Using astro or other file manager, the directories seem weird. That's not a problem. The problem is, I can only use 1gb of internal storage - is there a way to get at the balance of that? Or is it lost forever?
Sounds like your NT has the BN's old 1GB allocation for the user-media partition instead of the new 8GB.
To get a 8GB allocation, you can restore the NT to stock ROM and take it to a B&N store to have the repartition done; or you can (Google) search for a repart.img SD-based tool which also does the repartition (and in the process restore the NT to stock ROM). Either way, you can use CWM recovery to back up your current Carbon ROM before the operation and then restore it afterward.
Ah, I completely forgot about this little point. Thank you for the reminder and the options!
One more question from me about this, does it make sense in CM to have two internal storages anyway? Couldn't I just reformat it to have only one partition?
I know how to use parted, so this isn't why I am asking. I just wanted to ask here about potential other side effects.
I already reformatted that my internal memory is about 4GB and my sdcard0 storage is 10GB, but now I installed a huge app in internal memory which can't be moved to SD for some reason, and I want to at least reformat it the other way around or the default 12GB sdcard0 + 1GB internal
All apps are installed in the first internal memory anyway I have figured, so I don't know why this first sdcard0 does make sense at all? I first thought that would be used for apps, but currently there are 10 unused Gigabytes....
I am using a real sdcard in the device ( which is per default mounted as sdcard1 ), maybe that is the reason nothing is put on the internal sdcard0 ??
Any comments on this?
I'd also like to know if this can be done. I've read the posts that explain how to resize partition 10 (media) and 11 (user data), but I would like to know if it is possible to combine partition 10 and 11 into a single partition so that all available space that isn't used by the system can be used for apps and other data. Is this not possible because of different file systems or is there a way to do it?
I've also noticed that even though the Nook Tablet 16 GB physically has 1 GB RAM only 672 MB is recognized and the other 332 MB or so seems to be used as some type of virtual SD Card (this can be seen in Settings -> Apps -> On SD Card). Is there a way to make the entire 1 GB recognized and utilized? I have not been able to find any information on this anywhere.
I am running CM 10.1 on Nook Tablet 16 GB.

Combining the two partitions without tweaking the ROM will likely result in errors when the system at boot time attempts to mount the partition you eliminate, and when some apps reference the file-system that supposedly resides on that eliminated partition. To avoid these errors, the eliminated partition would have be removed from boot-time auto-mount list, and its file-system root would have to be mapped (e.g., symbolically linked) to the mount point of the remaining partition.

The 'missing' RAM is what the OS needs to keep the device going. 672 MB RAM free sounds very reasonable. What you see in the list as apps on sd card is the virtual sd card in storage, not RAM.
Sent from my BNTV600 using Tapatalk 4
The "missing" RAM is actually shared memory for the GPU (the SGX540). Video cards need RAM to load textures and whatnot.
You might have noticed that desktops without a dedicated GPU have much lower system RAM than advertised. Ex: my laptop with 3GB of system RAM actually shows something like 2970MB RAM (instead of 3096MB). The 100 odd MB of RAM is shared by the GPU (Intel GMA). If I had a dedicated GPU in my laptop, something like the GTX M GPUs with its own RAM, I would see and be able to use the full 3096MB of system RAM. It's the same thing with mobile devices, they share system RAM with the GPU.
That makes sense about the shared resources for the system and graphics. Thank you for the explanation!
Okay, if that is all, probably changing /system/etc/vold.fstab after repartitioning/removing the emmc-sdcard-partition and symlinking the other of the partitions should do it already? Or how does the storage settings things finds the storage memories? Or is there even something a bit more deeply buried, e.g. inside the kernels initrd or something like that? Does someone know those details?
@skelnik as written in the other thread something more here ...
It probably isn't completely beginner friendly to do all this just by this information here, but I might attempt to do this too, and then will share the information as step-wise as possible. But might take some weeks until I have a bit time left...
And be aware! There probably will be some downsides when not using a physical/external sdcard at all: You will not have the internal storage accessible as a usb storage device anymore (not sure about mtp or ptp mode, but these don't access everything anyway) - so if you screw up something it might become harder to recover. You should then probably have at least some 2gb sdcard you can use, just in case. But my opinion is that you should just pay those $5 for a physical sdcard (should even give you 4 or 8GB already...) and then there won't be these problems.

Actually you will still have access from the PC (Windows OS at least) to this partition after using the internal storage as an sdcard. You need to go into the USB Connection Settings under Storage and change it to "USB Mass Storage" mode. Also USB Debugging needs to be unchecked in order for you to get prompted to enable USB Connection to PC. After that you will be able to transfer data to and from your PC to the internal partition being used like an sdcard on your Nook Tablet. That partition is set to 10GB for me so that is a huge benefit and allows me to swap out multiple external sdcards any time without disabling any apps.

Are you sure you mean the same thing as me? I am talking about removing one of the partitions and just making one large partition where both /data and a link from /sdcard into that will be. As far as I understood, Android does not do a virtualization of a path but really makes one of it's partitions accessible as usb storage? Or can you also format in ext4 and still read it in Windows?
If that works I am probably not right, otherwise read on:
All your configuration data and everything is on /data and would be removed from being accessible by the system as long as it is connected as usb storage (also all installed apps, ...), and besides that you would need to use the FAT filesystem for Windows compatibility, which is also probably not the best idea, security-wise (any app being able to read sdcard would for example be able to read your wifi configuration, maybe google account login data, etc. etc.).
Hello Everyone !
Last week i was trying different ways to mount our phone storage ( internal as well as card ). What im about to share is the result of some experiments done at that time.
This is not a guide exactly, as many of us know the steps done here, but still, i take no responsibility of any type of problem you face.Please ask for help if you need.
for more information : Read this.
When i checked my internal storage, it was 72% fragmented !!!
so i thought may be there are others who haven't formatted internal/external storage for a year or above, thus leading to heavy fragmentation.
here it is :
method 1: (also applicable for card storage)
take backup of all data and format. That should solve it !
method 2:
i recommend using 360 security app(with root access) first.
let the app scan your phone, it will find app cache, trash and user data in your phone. but first uninstall unused apps and delete some data that you don't need. you can always copy it back if you need it.
clean all, including empty folders (it will increase simplicity of your storage).
How to Mount Internal Storage as USB DRIVE :
1. Reboot into CWM
2. Connect phone to a windows PC (prefer win 7)
3. Go to "USB mass storage"
4. Select mount sd card.
5. You should see your internal mounted as removable mass storage drive.
6. Enjoy unrestricted access to your internal drive.
--------------------------------------
All right guys, i dont know much about the ssd, but if it is not necessary (even at > 50% of frag-level ), please tell me.
Thank you !

Samsung uses their own filesystem in the newer devices.
And I think Sony uses ext4. But the thing is why would we need defragmentation if it's ext4. The files aren't accessed as in windows. Of course that windows will find disk errors and that there is a need if defrag. But the way Linux works, do we really need that?
file access is not the issue. i think the way ext4 manages writes makes all the difference.
ext3/ext4 avoid fragmentation of data and the way they store data, they can easily manage new read/writes without decreasing performance.
but even ext4 gets some issues, i found after some googling that when free space is less than ~15%, ext4 does not get enough room to swap things around. that fragments the drive heavily, thus the issues.
in that case, defragmenting might do some good.

Oh yeah, on low space. Well on my U from 4GB I usually have around 2.5GB free so I guess I'm safe for now.
Btw the fragmentation usually shows losing performance when accessing libs and stuff. But that doesn't apply to us.
i had only 500mb free some time ago, so i did defrag the internal at that time(72% fragmentation), but now i have 3 gb free ! :highfive: .so its same for me ...no need !

Internal storage (/sdcard) uses FAT32 file system, the data partition uses ext4 file system.
I know that defragmenting a flash drive is useful only to cause more wear and tear.
Are you all insane? You can't defragment flash drives!
That slows it down and eventually will ruin it.

If sdcard uses fat32, then it should be defragmented....otherwise its fine...
One doubt though, internal is named sdcard too....
You mean external storage, right?

Internal storage use FAT32 filesystem, external storage use FAT/FAT32/exFAT.
Both are flash drives and shouldn't be defragmented.
I have a LG Optimus L3 II, and since it has less than 2 GB of total ROM, I have bought an external SD card. I have some experience with Linux desktop systems, but not really with Android. On a Linux desktop, if I lack disk space, I can mount /home to the device I want using /etc/fstab, so all my personal files are transparently saved to the specified device.
I have noticed that my user files on the LG Optimus are all saved to /storage/sdcard0. Also, that there is a symlink from /sdcard to /storage/sdcard0.
What I would like to accomplish is to transparently have all my personal files on /storage/external_SD, but I'm not sure if I can just change /sdcard to point to the new location, or if I would need to change mount points somewhere, etc. I have searched on Google about this, but found nothing clear, and it seems this may vary from device to device. Also, I haven't tried anything yet, because I don't really think I would be able to recover if anything goes bad.
Thanks for your attention!

You can't just replace /sdcard to point to a new location, as Android is always expected to run from the internal storage, and this can cause mayhem. Now, the first question you should answer to yourself is what you mean when you say "personal files": if you just need to store songs, pictures, movies etc., you can store them on the external SD without any issues.
However, the main problem with Android in this aspect is the applications (apps and their data). The best thing would be if you could natively install them on the SD. But this is not always possible, since SD cards are usually formatted with non native Linux file systems (such as FAT) ,in order for them to be mounted on Windows, meaning that they lack the infrastructure to run apps from within (like file permissions or symlinks).
Solution here is the following: Format your SD card to be either all or partially of an ext3/4 file system type (so it can at least hold all apps and their data), then install the Link2SD app, which moves the application to this SD partition and creates all links from the internal drive to this partition. The paid version of this app (Link2SD+, which costs $1) allows you to link also the application data to the SD card (not only the app itself). I have used this solution on many low end devices I had in the past (like yours basically), and it solved this issue perfectly.

Thanks for your answer, Digdis! What I'm really looking for is not to have applications installed on the external SD card, since 2GB is more than enough for applications for me. What I really want is to have stuff that generally goes to /storage/sdcard0 in /storage/external_SD, because this is where my personal files and settings goes to. For example, if I download something, no matter what size, or record videos, I would expect them all to go directly to the SD card. I know a few applications, not all, can be directly configured to use the external card, but it would be a rather unintelligent way, unless Google has decided to throw basic Linux design out of the window.
Also, what you are telling me is that applications will fail to run if Android/data/ is on an external SD card? Because if I just install applications on SD card, it won't really solve my problem, because I have few applications installed, but data on /storage/sdcard0 tends to grow a lot.

OK understood. First of all 2GB seems a bit low for both ROM and apps, but if you say it works for you...
Now, regarding automatic download of pics etc. to SD. You can try Xposed module Downloads2SD . Didn't try it, but you can give it a try.
You can actually do that by telling the system to mount them differently but LG handles that by initiation not fstab. I can try and help you.
Didn't explain it very well. Mount the External SD as sdcard0 and sdcard0 as External_sd so the phone will safe on sdcard0 which we just made the external_SD. There can be problems with pictures recognition or music stuff like that but it should work.
Thanks a lot, @Digdis, I'll keep everything you said for reference.

What I want you to do now is this:
Check in storage path (with a root explorer) what folder you have like sdcard0, external_sd etc. Tell me all and what is the address (where it links)
EX: sdcard0 -> internal storage.
Also go in system/etc/ and copy me with a root explorer to sd card and then upload it on forums this file : init.qcom.post_boot.sh

Installing will probably take me some time, because Android is refusing to install anything now saying I don't have enough free space (although I have 199MB, but maybe it thinks is too little). The information you have requested I have already:
There is /sdcard/, which is just a symlink to /storage/sdcard0/.
/storage/sdcard0, which is the internal memory, is mounted like:
Code:
/dev/fuse /storage/sdcard0 fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1023,group_id=1023,default_permissions,allow_other 0 0
And there is also /storage/external_SD/, which is mounted like:

This is why I urged you to start moving apps to the SD card. Android will refuse to install anything on your internal memory unless you have at least 10% free space.

I think it swapped, but now many applications are crashing or failing to open files. I copied all files from sdcard0 to external_SD and rebooted, but it still doesn't seem to help. Maybe I should have formatted the external SD to ext*?

Nope you do not need to format it in order to work. Just make a clean install and use this swap. Maybe you copied them wrong. If the swap worked all is fine my friend.
