Internal memory as SD card

Hello
I have a problem with reading the cards in Desire Z - 2.3.3 Gingerbread.
How to share 1 GB of internal memory to 400 MB was seen as an SD card and the rest was for the system / application.
What exactly for Desire with GB 2.3.3 should be entries in vold.fstab?
If only amendment in vold.fstab enough ...
I tried:
mount-o remount rw /
dd if = / dev / zero of = / data / sdcard.img bs = 1024 count = 400000
mkfs.vfat busybox / data / sdcard.img
mount-o loop-t vfat / data / sdcard.img / mnt / sdcard
But it does not work: (
Camera, "he says," 0 pictures - Insert the SD card.
Can anyone help?
Regards

SD swapping and CWM

Hi all....
I'm currently using Arco's CM10.... brilliant work, and good to have JB on our W.
I have one question though.....
If the external microSD card is used as phone / internal SD storage and either the vold fstab is modified or the swapSD app is used to achieve this, when you boot into CWM to do a "mounts and storage" wipe, is the microSD card seen by CWM as internal or external storage? In other words, if I used CWM to wipe internal storage, would it be wiping INTERNAL storage or the EXTERNAL microSD card?.......

CWM is not affected by vold.fstab
It sees the SD Cards without swapping.

Agreed, cwm don't get affected after swapping, because the vold.fstab is a file included in the rom, it would crash if you flashed a rom that swaps you sdcards(if it was affected by it)
Press The Thanks Button If I Helped

Thank you both for your replies....I see you both specifically mentioned vold fstab....what about the swapSD app that was linked to in the CM10 dev thread....would the swap initiated by that app be seen differently by CWM?
The "swapSD" app I'm using can be found here.....

That app simply edits the vold.fstab file for you, because the (current) CM10 does not have the SD Card-swapping feature.

OK thanks Pepoluan, good to know..

Best setting for S2E?

Edit:I am now using S2E.
What is the best setting for performance?
Here is the process, hoping it can help who would like to partition your sdcard
1.Backup sdcard data
2.Reboot into recovery, advanced > partition sd card
3. 1024MB, swap 0 (You can choose your own size, I heard that this swap doesn't matter much so I choose 0)
4.wait until it finished; it may take a few minutes
5. reboot and install S2E in Google Play
6. open S2E and you can choose what you want to move to sdcard
---------Originally I was trying to use A2SD but couldn't make it work.---------
The link is dead.

where can I download the .sh for gio?..
I found one for Ace and it can't be opened in Terminal Emulator
I am using Droid GIO v3.2

Can anyone help me? Also, is A2SD the only one that can move dalvik cache to sdcard?

I am now using S2E by CWM partitioning.
What is the best settings for performance? It seems that data and dalvik cache should be kept internally

[DS&SS]swap sd card on 4.2/4.3/4.4 (UB) updated for (LB)

It's better unlock it, but there is another way.
1. Get root

6. download the zip and extract it to system/etc/init.d
7. Set permissions to file with all 9 ticks
8. Reboot
Don't pay attention to info in Settings > Storage. It's incorrect.
Just check using filemanager content of internal memory and sdcard.
It's must be swapped:
– External memory now linked to internal 2 GB
– Internal memory now linked to external sdcard: files located in folder 0
For stock 4.3 with Unlocked bootloader
1. Install CWM recovery via flashtool: tutorial
2. Get root by flashing via recovery SuperSU.zip

Video tutorial for stock 4.3 with Unlocked bootloader from me
If you will follow this video be aware.
For init.d support install APK provided on YouTube, NOT app with almost same name form Google Play: Universal init.d
[/QUOTE]
credits
@Bonoboo for a more simple tutorial
@zeyad xu for finding this
@xda people for trying
also for @raffie_archildz the man who made this
1. Create an Ext4 partition in your microSD with "Mini Tool Partition Wizard" ( you can search tutorial in google)
2. Install Link2sd and create mount script (EXT4)
3. reboot
4. Open Link2sd and select apk > menu> Create link
5. Done
Never use MSC mode (USB Mass Storage) for connecting to PC!
This can mess up data your files. Use only MTP!
Settings > Xperia Connectivity > USB Connectivity > USB Connection mode > Media transfer mode (MTP)

Root needed.
Earlier to get root on 4.3 was needed to unlock BL.
Here fresh tutorial how to root and keep BL locked.

Works very well.
Please update title, it works also on locked BL (even you can flash zip by http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250555)

TIP:
For those of you like me, who have a motherlode in their sdcard and would like to save their time:
1. (Optional) Connect your phone in MSC Mass storage mode
2. Create folder called "0" (zero without quotes) in your sdcard.
3. Move entire contents of your sd to the 0 folder so that only the 0 folder remains on the root of sdcard.
4. Copy the init.d script and reboot
5. Rejoice with your saved data and time

Just check using any filemanager content of internal memory and sdcard.
It's must be swapped.

I have checked it, and sdcard0 is swapped with sdcard1, and it's also swapped on PC when I look on my Xperia.
So really sorry: it works good, maybe not brilliant, because in Total Commander external memory is still have 16GB and there is no internal memory, but for Android it works good. :good:
Thanks!!!

As Bonoboo said,
your sdcard will now be mounted on /sdcard and internal memory is on /sdcard1. So if you had transferred files to folder 0, you will find it on /sdcard.
