AOSP 5.1 Rom storages swapped. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My device is Lenovo Vibe P1M with AOSP Custom Rom 5.1
All apps like whatsapp and hike save the downloaded file to ext sd card.
In my /mnt there are two folders one sdcard and one sdcard2. Sdcard shoul be my internal storage but it is my ext sd card and sdcard2 opens my internal storage.
As of /storage folder, I have sdcard0 and sdcard1. In this sdcard0 is my ext sd card and sdcard1 is my internal.

SDTools and External SD

So I have a 64GB class 10 card in my phone and it works fine. My camera saves to it and it recognizes the card. Problem is when I run SDTools it has an error reading the buffer. Also, any file management apps automatically go to the internal storage. I have to use a root file explorer to get to my sd card.

I'm not sure if you're aware but I noticed that the internal memory is under /sdcard and my sd card is under /extsdcard. I use astro as my file explorer.

I get the same error on SD Tools with a 32 gb class 10. Not too sure about the external card at this point.

I found it...extSdCard as the poster above said, but it under /mnt/ I use ROM Toolbox or ES File Explorer.
I saw that, just wondering how to get SD Tools to work. Guess it's a no-go
The "my files" app seems to work pretty good when needing to navigate your files and folders on both the Internal and External memory.

@VincenzoDM123
Do your ROM have a Memory FIX (Mount SD as internal memory)
No, I'm doing a zip and post on theard ROM

Can Game Apps be moved to SD Card?

I have an Asus MeMo Pad HD7 and I have alot of Game Apps from Google Play installed on the Tablet's Internal onboard storage and I'm starting to run out of storage space, I know you can't install Game Apps directly to an external SD Card but can the Games be moved to the SD Card from the Tablet's on board storage so I can free up storage space then later on move the Game Apps from the SD Card back to the Tablet's onboard storage? If so what is the process of doing that?
You need some tool like Link2SD (needs root).
i wonder how.. is it just like folder mounting?

[Q] Why does my phone not use its sdcard?

Ok, so the moto E classifies its internal memory as sdcard0 and an added sdcard as sdcard1 on root/storage.
My problem is the phone simply never uses my sdcard to store anything. I cannot place obb files on sdcard1/Android/obb for the games to work, and they work when I place em on sdcard0.
I'm running out of space on internal memory. Is there any way I can get the phone to make my phone to recognize the sdcard and prioritize it to install apps and such?
It's a non rooted xt1022. I am willing to root it if it fixes the problem.

Kitkat limits the use of External Sd Cards.
You can only move game apk to sd card also those natively suppprt this.
You may keep songs, videos, apk files etc in external card.
Game data needs to be in internal sd card only.
Yup, you can root and use folder mount, link2sd and other such apps to use external sd card to store app data in obb folder.

Also it is not the question of recognition.
That's how it meant to be.
Sd card is like external drive for storage only.
It can't be used as main memory without root as of now.
If Motorola adds full External Sd Card support in New firmware then thats a different thing.

Storage on SD card shows up separately

I moved my 64GB microSD Card over from my Note 2 until the promo shows up with the 200GB card. When a V10 app makes a data directory on the microSD Card it goes to (from the root) sdcard/program name/data. It says that this is a "Google" requirement. The included "file manager" app cannot find this. What "file manager " sees as "SD card" is actually "/storage/external_SD" out from the root. This has my old stuff from the Note 2 but the V10 is not writing /saving anything in this section. I am using "Super Manager" file manager to get to the root to even get to the new section which the included file manager cannot find.
Did you format to fat32?
The microSD is formated exFat
Coming from note 3 rooted on VZ, I can't write on my sd card in most of it only few programs actually have writing permissions and they are not file managers...
Card was formatted on extfat 128gb...
Samsung for some seem to **** up my sd cards and block them, also I got a 64gb that is readable but I can't format it, can't delete anything and this was coming from s3 to note3...
I was hoping this v10 to fix it all, but waiting for root to change permissions...So frustrating.
Was the SD card encrypted?
No
Are you rooted with the sdcard fix? I am not sure if this phone needed it or not, but I had a note edge before and put my micro sdcard in, and it was just fine.
Hey this is a very useful tool I'm sure this can do the job.
