Your external SD is mounted in:
/storage/sdcard1
You can also download the awesome "solid explorer" from playstore. It will always correctly locate your external SD, no matter the Rom you are using.

Your internal SD is mounted in /storage/sdcard0.

- press menu button, select Preferences
- Under preferences, select Backup folder
- Select browse, and browse to its location on your SD, select use this folder

When changing to new ROMs, some require a 'full wipe'. What I'm wondering is when you do a full wipe in CWM, does it also wipe the external SD card? I'm never really sure if it will or not so I always take it out prior just to be safe. If I don't need to do that though that would be good
No unless you select wipe external sd card if the option is on CWM .

I run full wipe, but now I can't access the external sd and I can't send files via cable. Do you have any solution?

What is your Rom you used after you did the full wipe?
It requires time for the media scanner to scan all of your files on your external SD. It took me one time about 5 - 10 minutes until I saw my files on the file manager.

Hi
Let me be mo clear:
I used Super Wipe Full to erase everything because I was facing some problems on it.
I used a lot of rooms before.
Now I can just access CWM and when I try to install the room, it says: "no files found". I think is isnt reading the external sd.

1. Copy the Rom to internal SD.
2. Next time be very careful not to wipe your SD cards in CWM recovery

-Boot to CWM recovery

-Select Mounts and Storage
-Select Mount USB storage
Your internal and external SD should be mounted as Mass Storage on your PC, connect the ROM to the Internal SD.
Good luck

I'm having a hard time using apps such as rom manager. I'm getting an error message saying: The SD card needs to be mounted to use ROM manager.
I'm not sure where am I supposed to mount the SD card from? I tried mounting thru CWM (v.8), but that didn't make a difference. I'm using CyanogenMod-7.1.0.1 (GWK74). Android version = 2.3.7.
Do I need to mount the sdcard thru terminal emulator or something?
Thanks for the help!!

Don't use ROM manager on the gTab. Its been known to brick the tablet.

On CM7, the internal SD card is mounted at /mnt/emmc. Only if you have an external microSD card in the slot will it be mounted at /mnt/sdcard.
If you don't like this default behaviour, then recent versions of CM7 for the gTab has a toggle in Settings > CyanogenMod settings which you can use to let the internal SD card be used as /mnt/sdcard.
That Worked!
Thanks bro for the help that worked for me!
For anybody using CM7 and only having internal SD and needing to enable it:
Go to Settings --> CyanongenMod Settings --> Application and enable "Use Internal Storage".
I'll be uninstalling rom manager. Couple of questions:
1. When opening up Titanium Backup, I only see a black screen and it eventually FC's. Is that a tibu compatibility issue, or just needs fixing permissions? (I did reinstall the app but didn't make a difference)
2. Any rom recommendations for BL1.1? I got my sight on vegan ge 7.0 and evolver ferus 1.1.
Let me know what you think and thanks again for your help!

No idea. I don't use TB, so I can't say why it would FC like that.
Try going into Settings > Applications > ... > TB and first "Force Stop", then "Clear data".

Try some of them; see which you like best.
I've found that a lot of people is upset about the impossibility of install your games or apps on the external SD Card, you have 32gb and you cant used them... it's a shame...:crying::crying::crying::crying:
BUT :victory: After losing my whole day on testing and research I wanted to share a simple way (Not the only one) to move the data of your games or apps from the Internal Sd to the (Real) Sd Card
I'll try to keep it simple: (You need to root your phone)
I'll do it for Need For Speed Most Wanted
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But If you want you can move the whole Data folder
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. Install your game (or app)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Run the game
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Wait for the game to download the data and play it just once (Just to know that it works :silly
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Install this amazing tool by slig
DirectoryBind
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410262
Thanks dude
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Open DirectoryBind
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Open the menu
Menu button on your phone genius
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Select "Add new entry"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. On "Enter Source" You put the folder of the External Sd Card that you want to use
(For example - a new folder on my sd card named "mnt\ext_card\My apps data\Android\data\com.ea.games.nfs13_na")
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9.On "Target Path You put the original folder where the data is
(For example -"mnt\sdcard\Android\data\com.ea.games.nfs13_na")
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. Check "Transfer files from target to data"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11. Wait for the app to finish the process THIS CUT THE DATA FROM THE INTERNAL SD AND PASTE IT ON THE EXTERNAL SD CARD :good:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12. Now everything should be ok and you just have to check that the little icon on the left of the link is GREEN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13. Open your game
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14. PLAY!!!!!!!!
Dont forget to say thanks

Under titanium on the main menu it should say how much free space you have on each storage device can you see that it recognizes everything correctly

Reinstall titanium and try again. Otherwise check the download location

Checked this view. The storage doesn't appear to swap after hitting the 'External > Internal' button. Have you had any luck on your phone? Perhaps I'm being an idiot and setting it up wrong.
Backup all your data to ExtSdcard
1./ Hard reset your phone
2./ Setup your phone as a new phone
3./ Root your phone
4./ Install Root External 2 internal from GP
5./ Use Root Explorer copy all folders from SDcard to ExtSdcard
6./ Open Root External 2 internal app --> Setting
- Check on Default SGS3 Roms
- Check on Use per Defaul
- Touch on The ext. sdcard device access --> change 179:49 to 179:9 (this is block of Ext Sdcard on my mega 5.8, on others i don't know)
7./ back and touch on External > Internal, At boot if init.d
8./ Restart your phone
Use Root Explorer to chech you Sdcard and see, now your Ext Sdcard swapped as Sdcard
But, after that i can not see my internal Sdcard, i am still finding out the way to fix it
inside Storage i am still seeing the Internal as 8gb but in Root Explorer it is my 32g Ext sdcard
Hope this can help you.
If any you find out the best way to swap Ext Sdcard, please share.
Cheers.
can you share your print screen of your storage with us?

Unfortunately the dev/author stopped updating in November 2012 long before 4.2.2. So although it will work on 4.1 it will not work anymore on 4.2.2.
I already pm @codlab about this but unfortunately he does not have a device anymore to test/start updating.
