WARN: For developer only.
attachment is the EXPANDSD script.
Why use it?
So many applications use /sdcard for mass data storage(gameloft, navigation...),
but I9100's internal_sd size is limit to 11G, so we need external_sd's space.
But these applications dosen't know how to use external_sd, old method is hack the apk for external_sd, but this will change apk's signature, and need smali/baksmali to work. My method work in system level, don't need change any apk file.
How to use:
1.make expandsd.ownhere dirctory in external_sd root directory.
2.move internal_sd's directory(for example:/gameloft) to expandsd.ownhere
3.run init_expandsd.sh
Theory：
use 'mount --bind' feature, bind external_sd's dir to internal_sd.
Because the sd card using fat32 partition format, the 'ln -s' command does not work, so the "mount --bind" is the only way to dynamically change the directory content.
Hi mate,
Thks for your shares. I have a question. How run init_expandsd.sh?
I tried gscript and init.d, but doesn't seem to be working
woohoo a great dev has come. glad you got here mate! love your work on Desire section.

you can try to use terminal emu, just type su then navigate to folder where the script located, then type sh init_expandsd.sh then enter. this might do the trick to execute .sh

Does it work for you?
It's a great idea thanks a lot for your work. I was wondering why ln was not working.
But too bad it does not work for me, i get the following error :
[1] Segmentation fault
Do you have any idea why ?
Thanks again
problems when connecting phone to pc
hi,
tried the "mount --bind" in order to try your script.
works fine. the directory contents is shared between the 2 path's,
but i have a problem when i connect the phone to a pc.
when i try to disconnect, the sdcard and external_sd are not
available anymore until i reboot the phone
note: the commands that i have executed are:
Code:
mkdir /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/foo
echo "test" > /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/foo/test
mkdir /mnt/sdcard/foo
mount --bind /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/foo /mnt/sdcard/foo
Can this script be placed in init.d folder for autorun at boot?
Edit: sorry, already answered above: no, it cannot.

I'm not using your script (have myself some ux & scripting skills) but did not know about the -bind option on android
Ridiculously simple and efficient
Did it my own way and it works great

Hi,
it's very easy indeed, once you got the point.
I do most of my stuff using an "adb shell" session so I'll post here my steps to get it working.
Also I like simple implementation so my script is the strict minimum needed to mount necessary folders
I assume you have a rooted device with working busybox and a kernel that supports /etc/init.d/
I suggest you do the test on a dummy folder before applying on a real folder.
So start by creating a folder called /sdcard/dummy
Do it the way you want , I do it with an "adb shell" session
Code:
cd /sdcard
mkdir dummy
Then copy some files in it (photos for examples)
Code:
cd /sdcard
cd DCIM
cd Camera
cp `ls -1 |tail -5` /sdcard/dummy
From now on, we consider we want to move transparently /sdcard/dummy to the external SD
1. move the folder to the external sd
CAUTION : I'm running a CM9 rom => my external sd is mounted on /mnt/emmc
Standard samsung sdcard mount is /sdcard/external_sd
The path might be different according to your brand and rom
Moving the folder code
Code:
cd /sdcard
mv dummy /mnt/emmc/
2. Create the mount point in the indernal SD
Code:
cd /sdcard
mkdir dummy
3.a Check the mount is successful by manually doing it
Code:
mount --bind /mnt/emmc/dummy /sdcard/dummy
3.b Check you see exactly the same thing on both folders
Both commands should return exactly the same output
Code:
ls -l /sdcard/dummy
Code:
ls -l /mnt/emmc/dummy
If everything is fine, then you're good to go
4. Automate mount at boot time
Create a script in /etc/init.d to automate the mount at boot time
I personally use "vi" but most people prefer graphical UIs, I can't recommend any here, do it your own way
So basically you would go root,remount /system in read/write mode and create the file
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
cd /etc/init.d
vi 90binds
Insert following lines, save and exit
Note that the "sleep 60" is to let the system boot up before mounting partitions (thanks to the initial script shared here)
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
sleep 60
mount --bind /mnt/emmc/dummy /sdcard/dummy
Change owner and permissions, flush disk cache and remount /system in read only
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
cd /etc/init.d
chown root:shell
chmod 6755 90binds
sync
mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
To check, run
Code:
su
cd /etc/init.d
ls -l 90binds
The output should look like this :
Code:
-rwsr-sr-x 1 root shell [I]0 MMM D HH:MM[/I] 90binds
5. Now you can reboot and check - after reboot - that the mount is done
Both commands should return exactly the same output (always ran in an "adb shell" session)
Code:
ls -l /sdcard/dummy
Code:
ls -l /mnt/emmc/dummy
6. Now you're good to move other folders
Basically, you move the folder to external SD
Create the mount point on the internal SD
Append the mount command in the 90binds script
And that's it
Hope this helps

Just posted
Take time to read and understand the idea
Can someone post the script that mount sdcard at boot?
I created a kernel but it doesn't mount sdcard at boot, it's possibile to create the script in system/etc/init.d that mount sdcard at boot?
Try busybox mount while booted to see if it's possible to mount SD Card with a script. SD card mounts automatically if it's FAT32 and it takes a little vold.fstab configuration for other file systems. You should check franco's or LG's kernel to see how to automount sd card from kernel.
This is taken from CM7, put it in init.d and see.

RE-EDIT: The CM7 script doesn't works, in the second reboot the sd wasn't mount
The CM7 script mounts a2sd apps (apps2sd script). The second one should be like
Code:
mount -o remount,r[b]w[/b] -t [b]fat32[/b] /dev/block/mmcblk0
. As I already said, it's probably a kernel problem, vold mounts sdcards automatically.

As Ianis G. Vasilev said there are various ways to mount the SD card but I suspect the issue is with the kernel you've compiled. Flash francos, if it mounts then your kernel is bad. Run logcat to see what's going on.
**EDIT**
I didn't see Ianis post before I began mine...
so with
mount -o remount,rw -t fat32 /dev/block/mmcblk0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the sd will be mount?
EDIT: I need a script that mount sd without write or read permission, infact if i use root explorer and I go to sdcard sometimes the sdcard folder is blank, so the sd didn't mount
Read permissions are needed to see what's on the sd card. For a read-only mount replace rw with ro:
Code:
mount -o remount,r[b]o[/b] -t fat32 /dev/block/mmcblk0
I would advice you to use dmesg(should be enabled in kernel) to see if your phone detects the card and logcat to see if any errors are preventing your card from mounting.
Now i create script
#!/system/bin/sh
mount -o remount,rw -t fat32 /dev/block/mmcblk0
mount -t vfat -o /dev/block/mmcblk0

is it correct?
Hi guys!
I created this thread mainly because many useful things can be done in Terminal emulator. I will show you some simple commands which are useful.
Very useful if you don't have Root explorer when you need it.
Make sure you take a Nandroid backup before you try out just in case you can restore when you do something wrong!
You can get terminal Emulator from here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en
Note: Most commands need root. So type su and press enter and grant superuser permissions to Terminal Emulator!
First type this command before using any of the commands below just in case(needs root)
Code:
su
Some useful commands:
Turning device off (Turns your device off very fast!! ):
Code:
poweroff
Rebooting:
Code:
reboot
Rebooting to Recovery
Code:
reboot recovery
Rebooting to download mode:
Code:
reboot download
Forcing Most Apps to install to SDcard(Root needed with Terminal Emulator, no need root with ADB):
Code:
pm setInstallLocation 2
Alternatively, you can type 0 at the end instead of 2 for Auto location install mode or 1 for Internal memory install mode
To check what the current install location is:
Code:
pm getInstallLocation
Mounting R/W in system(Use with caution)
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t /system
If above one doesnt work, try this.
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
Unmounting R/W in system.
Code:
mount -o ro,remount -t /system
If above code doesn't work, try this
Code:
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
Moving files from sdcard to system (Use after mounting R/W):
Code:
busybox cp /sdcard/<path> /system/<path>
Example: busybox cp /sdcard/demo/framework-res.apk /system/framework/
Changing file permissions to rw-r--r-- (Use after mounting R/W):
Code:
chmod 644 <path>
Example 1: chmod 644 /system/app/mms.apk
Example 2: chmod 644 /system/app/*.apk (This command changes the file permission of all apps in the folder to rw-r--r--)
Changing the current directory:
Code:
cd <path>
Example: cd /sdcard
Listing all the files and folders under the current directory:
Code:
ls
If you want to view all the files and folders in your sdcard, type:
cd /sdcard
ls
Making a new folder:
Code:
mkdir <path>
Example: mkdir /sdcard/newfolder
Removing files (For System files, Use after mounting R/W)
Code:
rm <path>
Example: rm /system/app/demoapp.apk
Removing Folders:
Code:
rmdir <path>
Get info of your build.prop values
Code:
getprop
That's all for now. I will add a few more later!
If you have any more new commands or if I have given an improper command, feel free to post it in the thread
Thanks for reading.
Have you any idea on why if I were to enter pm set-install-location 2(SD card), the next line would be "Killed"?

That is the use of the bootanimation command. You can stop it either by pulling battery or closing terminal emulator!
But what I did to stop it was to rotate my phone to landscape and somehow close terminal emulator.
But in ADB it is easier to stop using exit command.

Hello!
I linked some apps to SD card second partition with Link2SD app.
After restarting my device the linked apps were missing.
I used the quick reboot feature, which fixed the problem temporary.
Do I really have to quick reboot my phone after every reboot to access the linked apps or is there a way to fix this problem?

Thanks for your help, but as I said I'm a beginner so there are a few things I don't understand.
- What is the extension of the file?
- How to exactly set the RWX settings?
- Should I put a space after mmcblk1p2, then type ext4?
no suffix. like in your screenshot. spaces matter.

you said replace mmcblk1p2. what does that mean? how to?
check cat /proc/partitions from terminal which is the 2nd partition of your MicroSD card. if you did not create 2nd partition yet, will tell you.

ext4? im not sure if you meant that
get a terminal emulator app (or connect phone to PC adb shell) and check the output of following command:
Code:
cat /proc/partitions

if your 2nd partition is mmcblk1p2 then just mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 as in post #6 (nothing to replace)

How can I check that? I dont understand the output of the command
you can double check first partition with grep /dev/block/vold /proc/mounts
Code:
:/ $ grep /dev/block/vold /proc/mounts
/dev/block/vold/public:179,129 /mnt/media_rw/8075-15FD vfat rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,uid=1023,gid=1023,fmask=0007,dmask=0007,allow_utime=0020,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro 0 0
in my case 1st partition is
179 129 1935608 mmcblk1p1
therefore next minor is 2nd partition
179 130 1935607 mmcblk1p2
