Hey, so I have a few dumb questions.
1: I deleted my SD card shortcut that was in my freshly formatted internal storage when I got the phone. I want it back and no file manager can help me. I only want it because some apps (like Dolphin browser, for the downloads directory) won't let me select the external SD. Any way to get it back other then a format of the internal SD? Would that work even?
2: Why the heck is the EFS so dang fragile? And why does this phone have it able to get messed up!? None of my other phones have ever had this, and I've worked with the Samsung Intercept (OMG THAT HORROR), the LG Optimus V, the HTC Sensation 4G, my brother hasn't seen this on his Nexus 4 even. I see so many people posting "HALP, EFS MESSED UP WITH NO BACKUP!!!" and I'm just scared to death of mine messing up, so I have backups on my computer, my phone, my sisters phone!!! Lol.
3: I don't need to do it now, but in the future I might. How do we swap how the the external and internal memory is seen? According to many sites we need to "Open the file manager that you have installed on your Android device and browse to the location “/system/etc” and you will find a file named “vold.fstab”" only that file doesn't exist in my /system/etc folder in Beanstalk. So I'm curious if maybe the OG has a different method of doing this?
Thanks for those willing to take the time to answer my 3 dumb questions.
On 3...maybe I misread this but are you asking about moving anything you download from the web to sdcard instead of int. storage ? If that's the case, download xposed framework and get diwnload2sd. It allows you to change the downloads directory..hope that helps

Thanks for replying.
No, there is supposed to be a way to make the phone mount the SD as internal storage and vice versa. In the future I may want to do that if I get a fast, large, SD card. But when I look into the proper folder the file I'm supposed to edit isn't there. :-\
There are certainly other ways to use the SD instead of internal, like the one you mentioned or another exposed module that sets the camera to use the SD instead of internal. And then there's the app I bought "FolderMount" which is great as well. It's certainly not devastating to not be able to swap how the phone mounts the memory, but it would be cleaner if I could.
Again, thanks for replying!

I've never has problems with the SD, I just point my file manager yo /storage/sdcard1 whereas internal storage is /storage/emulated/0.
Also, I've only ever had an issue with my EFS getting messed up once, and that was back on 4.2.2 before development got stabilised with gee/geeb.

Mostly operator error.
Otherwise, the only thing that could cause this is confusion regarding which recovery to use. TWRP has always worked for me.

That's the only thing I'm aware of that would have write access to the efs partition.
Ive never used philz recovery, but earlier versions of CWM for the OG didn't even check the updater script, so you could Very easily flash something that could damage the phone.

I did the partitions swap right when this phone came out, which tricked my phone into thinking my external sdcard was in fact internal memory.
I would like to switch this back. Does someone know of a simple way to do this? I believe it requires a void file or something - I'm not sure. I am sure that I didn't make a backup of the original file when I overwrite the new one. Dumb.
Someone help this guy out please. I get all sorts of confused when my phone says it can move and apps to the sdcard. I have no idea where it goes. Now I'm getting a "sd card low on volume space" alert constantly. Pulled up Apps2sd and it wont even let me move anything anymore.
I would love to avoid an SBF.
Thanks.
With the dx2 it makes it default (sdcard-ext) which is to my knowlegde is impossible, everyone who has a droidx2 is on sdcard-ext

There was a script or something to switch it around. Void.sb file or something. I was drinking Jose with my ex one night and got ballsy and did it. Sdcard now shows my 15 gb OG Droid card and sdcard-ext shows the meager 4 gb allotted to this phones internal memory. To the best of my knowledge, the 8 gb built in is split in two, our phone shows half of that as your sdcard, and the other half is tucked away for media and apps.
I just want to switch it back. Recovery still reads internal as what its supposed to be (4 gb built in) so I just had 4 backups saved to that - jammed it full. I fixed that just now, no more low card space issues.
Make sense? Sorry for any typos, I'm landscape in my browser and its 4 in the morn...

Yeah its 4am in cali too xDD umm i'm not to sure, i don't really screw around with scripts, the 4gigs are internal, but when you shove the sd card in the x2 it makes ext the main partition, the only thing i can think of is reformat in ur og droid or just move everything off of the sd ext and move it to plain root (non ext)(on ur comp) but for the x2 the ext is root, moto screwed the pooch there ( i hope this makes sense) also the 2.3.4 or what ever comes may fix this
Nope, that wont don't it. By default the external sdcard shows as sdcard-ext, I changed some files to make it read as internal. I need to change the files to switch it back.

So the moto devices put the external SD card under mnt/sdcard-ext as everyone here knows. I'm wondering if there is any method to:
1. Have apps like rhapsody use the external card for downloading music
2. Remap using external for things like Gameloft games data
I am rooted and I've been looking at solutions - alsso know that non stock will allow for changing mount points completely, but not quite there yet.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

OK. I see what to do to swap. Rather then swapping it, is there a "better" mount point for the external so that programs like rhapsody would use it properly? I assume using a bind command from shell would be enough to get the Gameloft games moved.... right? Or do most people simply swap internal with external?
Thanks.

I'm curious too, been wondering this for a while but never thought to ask on here.
Is there a step by step guide for doing this or is it going to be too complicated for someone not familiar with coding.? I would love to accomplish this.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
vold.fstab is located in the system/etc folder. You must be rooted to see it. You can change where the mount point is for the external SD card. How to do it is pretty straightforward based on reading the file and Googling. My question is specific to how 'mother's devices deal with the external card and how software like amazon mp3, rhapsody, etc store data to the external SD and how remapping the external SD on the photon would best allow those apps to use the microSD successfully.

Well that would be something the app developers would have to do. The vold.fstab trick is to trick everything in to thinking their switched. Not really a permanent solution. Try contacting the app devs and give as much info as possible including mount points

To get slightly back on topic , I was wondering if someone could spell out exactly how to do aa 'junction' (this would be the windows term for it) where you have an invisible link for the OS to follow from one place to the next. So instead of modifing the root files,instead running an app that manages it or a script at boot that would allow it. Again - on stock firmware if that matters.

This mod is wonderful. I like knowing that if my phone's internal memory fails (or if I accidentally wipe it), I can just pop out my SD card because it has all my important data. For me, one of the benefits of most Android phones over the iPhone is the removable memory! And only about half of the apps I use were able to default to using the external card when the internal one was present and mounted first. Switching them solves that.

Not necessarily. Coming from the Nook Tablet forums, this has been an issue that has been debated for some time. When you want to write quickly to a card you are better off with a higher class. However, if you need to read from a card, i.e. running an app or a whole OS, or booting off of into a recovery, higher rated cards don't mean faster read rates. Some lower class cards have a higher read rate. There is a discussion about this in the Nook Color forums and is hit on sometimes in the Nook Tab forums, sorry I don't have a link though.
IMHO Sandisk class 4 have the highest performance for reading from. This may not apply though, once you go to a bigger cards; 16G or 32G - I've only had personal experience with 4G cards.
I'm just wondering, if you swap to use external memory do you have to format it to work with your phone?

Haven't found a good way to swap them, reduced to using the wonderful app Directory Bind to do this, but now I have a hard time remembering what folders have been moved the real SDcard.
With my Motorola phones it was as simple as editing the fold.fstab file, not so much with this phone.
http://galaxynote2root.com/galaxy-n...sd-card-with-rooted-galaxy-note-2-app2sd-mod/
did this on CleanROM and it works.
I didn't like it, so prior to doing it I did a nandroid backup.
I don't like the fact the script has to run every time the phone boots, yes, i know it does this automatically.
Also, i'm a bit confused how backups will work when you use this app, too. I know the system files are still stored on the phone's physical hdd... but i'm wondering what happens when I restore in titanium backup and have two different locations where APKs should be?
There are some other issues in beans thread, i've heard. I'm not sure if ROM related or not, though.
The one thing with Directory Bind is that it has to continue to run too, but its very easy on the RAM and battery, not a big deal.
I have tried that script, but it would never remount my sdcard, so both /mtn/sdcard/ and /mnt/extsdcard/ would show up as the internal memory, thats when I found the Directory Bind.
Directory Bind works wonders, I have /sdcard/Android/ pointing to /mnt/extSdCard/Android/ without issues, along with some others. Its just the programs that don't store their data there that you tend to have issues with.

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"

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.
