Hello Everyone.
In this post, I would like to show how to mount Internal SD card and External SD card when using Cyanogenmod 7 ROM.
I had some issues because CM7 mounts the internal SD card under /mnt/emmc and mounts external SD card under /mnt/sdcard.
As you know, there are many applications that download data using /mnt/sdcard as path and if you have CM7 way of mounting these apps won't work.
So to mount Internal SD card to /mnt/sdcard and External SD card to /mnt/sdcard/external_sd as it is done on Stock ROMs proceed with the following:
1 - Open the file /etc/vold.fstab with your preferred text editor (I use root Explorer) and find and modify the last lines as below an then save:
# internal sdcard
dev_mount emmc /mnt/sdcard 28 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0
# external sdcard
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard/external_sd auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2
# otg sdcard
usb_mount sdcard2 /mnt/sdcard/usbStorage auto /devices/platform/msm_hsusb_host.0
#end line
2 - Open the file /system/build.prop with your preferred text editor and find and modify the following lines as it is show an then save:
# notify vold we have internal and external sd
ro.additionalmounts=/mnt/sdcard/external_sd
ro.vold.switchablepair=/mnt/sdcard/external_sd,/mnt/sdcard
3 - Reboot the phone and voilá
This procedure worked for me and I have no issues to mount both my Internal and External SD cards when plugging the phone on my laptop.
a good guide indeed for the CM7 ROM users
I did something similar for all my Gameloft games, EA games, Glu games, and DATA partition, and Download, and all the other stuff, basically i mounted everything off to my 64 GB SD card instead of internal SD
lets give this topic some flight time, stuck for a month, it'll come off by itself
also added to main INDEX
Thanks AllGamer...
thanks, i was looking for something like this for a while.
Thanks so much for this. Thanks a bunch!!!
ICS
Can someone who had flashed ICS Alpha builds tell us if this procedure works on them?
Thanks and I am glad I'd helped someone by doing this post
Testing this out right now on Isotope, let's all keep our fingers crossed.

does it work for other devices cm7 roms??
tried it and didn't work for me. Might have typed it wrong. Will try again.
I only used the file browser to see if i can access both the emmc and the sd card but could only get to the emmc
I will try...

Oh man, thank you!
This worked like a charm on my Epic Touch 4G.
tried this in a aokp rom(hydrogen), and it doesn't work.
Why not mount the emmc to /mnt/sdcard/external_sd in addition to /mnt/eemc for backward compatibility?
Does it work on CM9 too?
I had ICS Passion v13 installed on my Samsung Vibrant before, and my vold.fstab file is a bit different from cm7's. I now have cm7 installed but the vold.fstab file doesn't seem to have changed with the change of roms.
It would be great if you could post the fstab and build.prop files somewhere online from where I can download it and replace in my phone because I don't want to mess up again(I encountered the "encryption failed" bug in ICS today and I tore my hair out fixing that..so yeah.)
Thank you.
Anyone else that's on AOKP have any luck getting this to work??? The flip-flooped SD cards on CM9/AOKP is seriously annoying..

Hi guys,
I have my clockwork mod folder on my external SanDisk 16gb sdhc...does anyone know how to be able to restore this way? Does the backup have to be on internal storage? I don't see a "mount ext sd" option in mounts...
While I'm asking this..
When you move apps to external do they no longer show up in your app drawer...? I'm using go launcher but it seems they disappear when I move them to external sd card.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I927R using xda premium
I would like to know about using the external sd card for cwm instead of internal as well....
by default from what I read CWM uses the internal SD card but I believe I heard some people mentioning on the forums that you can modify something in the kernel or a config file somewhere to change this. Unfortunately I do not know how sorry.

Ive looked through every kernel thread and just about every rom thread and dont see anything about being able to switch it over to using your external sd card for backups....it sux but guess its not possible yet
There is a few posts in the CWM thread that talk about swapping the internal SD for the External SD.

Ill have to give it a try, kinda scared too cuz im a noob at that kinda stuff but i appreciate the help!
ok so im using root explorer, opened up the fstab file to edit and am stuck there, not really sure where to add those commands at...i think it would just be easier to leave it on internal storage lol
Yes it would be easier to leave it as it is. Lol. I have modified the fstab in Linux but not on my phone. If it is the same type of file you need to make sure you are opening it as root and there should already be a line with your current file system being mapped and simply replace it with the new line.

Sorry you guys got bit. Cyanogenmod has a built-in routine to manage storage, so this is for stock roms. But what do you mean by soft-brick?
I've added a note to the link's OP warning about cm9. Below you'll see cm9's vold.fstab; it's quite different from a stock Samsung. From the instructions:
If your device's /system/etc/vold.fstab file matches the attached original Galaxy Exhibit fstab file, it may work for you as well.

Your original vold.fstab was saved when the app first runs. You can rename the backup and reboot to recover from any problem.
I tried this and it says that my 32gb sd card is usb storage. Is there a way to make it system memory? When i did this it gave me less system memory and made my usb storage huge. I would rather have more system memory than usb storage.

This app will not make your external_sd system memory. It swaps sdcard and external_sd as mount points.

worked fine on my stock rooted 2.3.6. thanks. if I chose to swap manually I presume I could simply over write my existing vold.fstab with your vold.fstab.swap (renamed to vold.fstab)?

After Swapping memory and then Factory Data Reset memory not Recognised
I changed external memory of 4 GB to internal memory and it worked perfectly . But after factory data reset, [Setting > Backup & Reset > Factory Data Reset] my Qmobile NOIR A6 phone is neither mounting internal memory 2GB, nor external memory (SD card) of 4GB. I have reverted changes made in vold.fstab file but the problem persists. my vold.fstab file exactly as it was befor change. My phone is only showing total space 503 MB when checked through SETTINGS>STORAGE.
I can not use camera or other application that use phone memory or SD card. what is solution please.

I finally found the root of problem. I erroneously renamed the file "vold.fstab" as "vold .fstab" which made it useless for mounting the memory. by correcting the file name problem is solved.

Don't move the apps to sd, just create a 'link'.
You need init.d support and a properly partitioned sd card. This guide will show you how.

I had the same problem with my S3 Mini, what i did is 1.Install Link2SD. wich created a mount script for the second partition to be mounted to /data/sdext2 at boottime
and then i also got the INSUFFICIENT SPACE error when i tried to move. so i looked for the init.d script at /etc/init.d/ its called link2sd or someting like that and then 2. i manually changed that script to include "mount -o bind" commands so i could link manually my copied data maps on the second partition to the 'local' /sdcard/Android/data or ../obb
it worked but you have to remount the /etc directory to get write acces to be able to change the init scripts and also you are depending on a kernel wich supports init.d scripts.
took me a few days to figure it out but i just got my first android since 2 weeks and only have some linux/unix experience so i get the commands.

Hi
I use this program and it works very good https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slf.ListglApp
1. Install
2. options/move data
3. Select apps to move
4. start, it will work,
5. each time you wanna play or run any app only select mount (the chain in the right side), if you wanna move more apps select unmount and move data again, and that's all.

Hey guys,
I think I've tried everything but it doesn't look like this is possible to do.
I tried to do it on an un-rooted I9300 4.1.2 with TouchWiz and had no success.
Now I'm using CM 10.2 and I still I'm trying to find something useful. And again with no success.

Don't move the apps to sd, just create a 'link'.
You need init.d support and a properly partitioned sd card. This guide will show you how.
