I tried to swap storage of my phone and now, when I open my phone, it refreshes itself after reaching samsung animated logo.
Which means my phone is not opening, just restarting after Galaxy W logo.
This was what I did.
- Install Root Explorer
- Open root explorer, go to folder \system\etc
- Download modified vold.fstab :
- Open root explorer
- Tick mount R/W ( So that you can edit system file )
- Extract the content of the file that you download just now and overwrite original vold.fstab with the downloaded vold.fstab in the \system\etc folder.
- Tick mount R/O
- Restart your phone and enjoy.
After that, I flashed couple stock roms with Odin, it gave the same result. Am I right ? My phone is gone away
From where did you download the modified vold.fstab ?
Have a look here also.
do you set permission after doing that?..

if your phone can still boot to recovery,, why not reflash your back up..
I did the steps here
mygalaxywonder.blogspot.com/2012/02/how-to-swap-and-unswap-memory-in.html
I downloaded files from there too.
My phone was already rooted and permission was setted.
The phone does not accept any flash. I tried many stock Rom's too. Like Turkish one, Europe one.
Isn't there anyway to save my phone ?
[SOLVED] Dont worry
hey bro I faced the same problem and solved it easily
1-install CWM
2-boot into recovery
3-format /system and wipe cache and delvik cache
4-install new rom like CM-9-rc6 (prefered)
5-fix permissions
6-reboot
iam out now will be back in 2 hrs hope you can solve it

Yesss!! I succeed bro! You are the man Well, I understand that I should format system too which was the thing I forgot. Also, do you suggest CM 10 or something better for gaming ? Dude, I could not open games like Vice City or Shadowgun in my W. My internal storage is so small. Is there another ways to install games. Lighten me please!

Just swap the internal storage with your sd card and you will have bigger internal. If you are using cm9 go to settings > storage > press menu > there should be something like use external or such i don't remember > tick it and then restart

put it in the root of your sd card (not in any folder)
how & where is this as it look like its just downloaded into a download folder not into root so didn't work when I flashed the rom part one
It simply means, you put in on your sdcard but not in any folder of that sdcard, just copy of from your download folder to the main "sdcard" directory. (root)
You say you have problem when flashing it, can you be more specific? You end up in bootloop or... ?
You really need to follow the MildWild's instructions.
1.Full Wipe
2.Flash part1
3.Complete reboot(that means, you let the phone boot up, dont try to restart it to recovery)
4.Let it settle for a few minutes
5.Reboot into recovery
6.Flash part2(DONT WIPE ANYTHING before flashing part2)
7.Reboot and enjoy.

Check your Downloads folder in root or connect USB to PC and check for recent updated folders:good:

Anyone else having the app crash when you go to the mildwild-settings-notification area energy saver (don't know what the correct english term for that is, using the german rom at t he moment) and try to open the menu for possible display brightness settings?
Not a huge problem, but if it happens for everyone, it'd be a small bug

your apps were on usb storage and you can still uninstall them
No I can not, its probably my bad English You misunderstand me.
So once again
1. I install rom, for example minimal by Judas
2. I switch usb to external sd, reboot phone etc..
3. I install same apps on sdcard and busy-box,
4. And now when i reboot phone apps installed on sdcard are greyed, and system says that they are not installed
5. I remove busybox reboot phone, and voilà my apps are back.
My question is why this is happening ?
No. But you swapped vold.fstab?

Yes I swapped fstab, and after that I had installed apps... just like I write in second post
You
1. Installed apps
2. Transfer to usb storage
3. Swapped vold.fstab
Is that what you mean? Because thats the only reason why my apps will be grayed.

No I mean exactly what I write earlier,
1 Install rom,
2 Swaped vold fstab
3 install some random apps (like endomodo dead tiger etc,).
3a. And at this moment everything work fine.
4 Install busybox - and now if I reboot phone apps install on sdcard are greyed.
4a. For 1 at 10-20 reboots apps will show correctly .
5 Uninstall busybox, reboot phone - my apps are back,
And this problem occurs only witch TouchWiz.
I know this is bit strange problem so I appreciate Teddytsen Your willingness to help me

Hi,
I have a question about my phone's storage.
My phone is N7100, mega-wiped by zoot's script, but after it said job is completed(total process is 1~2 sec), the screen froze, then I reboot, stuck at Galaxy Note II page so I think the mega wipe worked. Boot into download, flash N7100 Odin STOCK leaked 4.3 version (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2466405) by Odin3 v1.85
Everything looks OK but when I got into setting and check storage, the system memory took up 5.54gb. I feel that this is too much comparing to my previous experience. And when I connect my phone to computer through USB, it shows my phone has 9.91gb free out of 10.4gb, which means the 5.54gb is the system partition.
Is this normal?
And I use ES file to look into the folder system. I found
1. /sdcard is a short cut.
2. under /storage folder, there are 7 folders (emulated, extsdcard, sdcard0(short cut), UsbDriveA to F)
3. under /storage/emulated folder, there are 2 folders, 0 and legacy which both contain exactly same contents as my /sdcard folder
Firstly, are these things normal?
If not, what could be the problem? My doubt is that this has something to do with the mod swapping extsdcard and internal sd card, I might choose the option to do this when I was installing Phoenix ROM V16. I didn't remove this mod according to original thread because there is no file supposed to be deleted.... If this is the problem? Even megawipe cannot wipe this? or my mega wipe did not work well at first place (frozen screen after wiping and wiping process is so short, 1~2 sec.)? If this is the problem, how can I get rid of this and have my internal space really clean like just got out of factory?
Thanks for any imputs!!

You can use folder mount to map folders on extsd to intsd i.e. to be used for big obb files of games or gps maps etc.

Anybody having trouble mounting /System in 5.0.1? es explorer can't write to it and when I use terminal emulator to mount it's still no go. ?
I use ScriptManager. It has the auto mount system partition as needed feature working for Samsung SELinux but it occasionally has an issue mounting as ro after writing. Just reboot. The prompt will keep popping up with "Not recommended" and something else like continue or default or recommended, can't recall. But with stock kernel, the only choice is "Not recommended" and reboot when done. No problem writing. Can't even use advanced mode to mount system as ro when it fails. Just reboot.
I just sent an update to the developer yesterday. He had sent me a development apk last Christmas to get the icon sizing issue corrected; mismatched to text on the Note 4, resizing the text makes the icons tiny. He fixed that in development but hasn't released it yet.
Are you talking about mounting system in a root file browser app? If so, use root explorer. It never fails.

Do u want me to upload the 4 way reboot mod for my deodexed rom? I have that done already.
Edit: Here you go. Pushh this android.policy.jar to system/framework. You might get a freeze & reboot but once you hot swap it if the system freezes then recovers, just copy & paste it one more time then set permissions & reboot again.

Thanks tx, your my hero! Still scratching my head tho... Running your rom completely from scratch... Total wipe of everything. Thanks again.
Edit: Awesome menu. Took one reboot and went through the "android is upgrading" for 15 minutes but it's working great.
Thanks again! :thumbup:

May be off topic but I wanted to update the status of this app. The developer is focusing on lollipop issues and updated the application a couple of times recently. I appreciate the fact he's responded to the issues that were present with Samsung stock kernel and icon to text proportionality with Note 4. It keeps getting better; squashing bugs and adding features. I have the pro version so long term support is a wonderful thing regarding a purchase.
