Title basically says it. I bought my wife a galaxy tab 2 about a year ago and used the guide from the link below to swap the internal memory with the sd card memory. I bought myself the galaxy tab 3 7" and have been looking for a tut to do the same thing. I haven't found anything that seems to work though. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks

The script is pointing to the wrong location for SD card Dev/block/vold/179:25. If you are familiar with Odin and comfortable with the possibility of bricking or rendering your tablet unbootable, try editing that to 179:17 and running the script. I don't guarantee that will work, but that is the address of my ext SD running cm11 on a sm-t310.
Yours may be different on a 210. Run mount from terminal and hunt for the 179:XX for sdcard1 and verify before trying though.

If you do make that change it will wok. I have it running on my sons now overloaded tab3 kids. Using 32g card.o
Edit: I changed it to 179:73. Works well. Many large games running fine.

Could you give me a little more guidance on doing this? Basically just follow the tut in my first post but change the script to point towards the sd card?
Thanks a bunch for your help.

Yeah, just follow all the directions except edit those two characters IN THE SCRIPT. I've used this script with smanager perfectly on my old p3113, so thought I might get it to work on my sons.

Just a couple more questions if you don't mind:
Mine is a galaxy tab 3 sm-T210/sm-t21or. Does that change anything?
As long as I have a backup in twrp, i can always restore (in case something is royally screwed up), right?

I would test it and see if it works, then if it does, have it set to run at boot, but a backup never hurts. I just backed mine up before testing blackhawk kernel, which worked well on the kids tab3.

Run the command "mount" without quotes in terminal . Look for your sd card
And which device address it's using. Verify that 170:17 is your device node.

So I mounted ran "mount" in terminal emulator and it refers to anything on my external sd card as 179:73. (@zibrah3ed sorry I didn't catch that in your first post)
So I guess that's the number I need.
Thanks for your help guys.
I did it and it worked perfectly. Having one gta game on my phone no longer prevents me from installing other apk's. Thanks for all your help. I'm sure this will be useful to a lot of people with 8gb of internal memory.
I was wondering if you got it working. I noticed there is not much information about these tabs, compared to the tab 2, which is the last gtab I had. I bought my sons kids tab assuming it would have similar support. All that was really important was root/recovery and some sort of memory swap, as I loaded it with many of the games I have on my 32gb tab. I took back a nabi because sometimes the memory swap I was using wouldn't stick on reboot, and getting it going again would be to much for my 4 year old. Anyways, glad you got it going.

First of all you need to be rooted. Then you need to grant es file explorer superuser permission when it asks. then you go into /data folder. You should see a lot of files/folders in there. If you can't you probably aren't using es file explorer as a rooted user. Then you long select the script and select properties. then change permissions by checking read, write, execute (all 3 should be checked) under the owner option. Then so to smanager and continue the tut

Is anyone using Zinio with their A100? If so, how do you manage your memory? I need to free up some memory or move it to the SD card but do not know how. Any help would be greatly appreciated...
You might want to take a look at the SD mount swap by crossix. It mounts your SD card as internal, so if you have a 32gb card you get 32gb internal storage. Well after formatting and android taking space its like 29gb but you get my point. Here's a screenshot of it running on mine, note internal storage.

Yeah it seems to be tricky for some people to get going. I'll assume you use an Acer based ICS and not CM9 like I used for my screenshot, but download the zip, extract the install-recovery.sh file, paste it into /system/etc so it looks like /system/etc/install-recovery.sh then set permissions, uncheck every box, save. Re open permissions and set it to
XXX
XXX
XXO
Save.
Reboot, wait a minute. Like seriously a minute, not a few seconds. Then check storage. Depending what file manager you use you will have to mount system as writable, in root explorer its a R/W button up top, in ES file manager its in settings, check root explorer, allow root, mount system as writable check box. Others may be different but I've uses those two and it works.
If you use CM9 its different, but I can walk you through that method as well.

You could manually move the files from /sdcard/com.zinio.mobile.android.reader to /mnt/external_sd, but when you try to access the magazine again from Zinio it will redownload the files to the original location. If you do not have an available internet connection, then the pages will display as all black. There is not a single file that you can select to open the magazine in Zinio, the magazine is downloaded as seperate apdfs, jpgs, and html files.

you won't scew anything up doing that. and the only way to get it working is by figuring out what the heck the mount points are and applying them. It only works for external sd card btw. And i would run the commands myself but i don't have the note 3. I kinda want it but it seems too big.

I moddified my S4 UMS Widget. if it doesn't work, i am going to need more information. Let me know if it works or not.
It requires root of course. And if it doesnt work keep tapping it till you get back to MTP mode and go under USB setting in settings app and set that to MTP mode and you should be back to normal again. Really wish i had this to help you guys with mods and what not. but i'll do my best.
I tried the UMS Widget you posted. When I connect my phone to my computer with UMS mode from the widget the phone shows up as a CD-ROM drive, not a removable storage. If I try to click on the CD-ROM drive it asks me to insert a disc. Seems very strange to me.

I have the same issue after upgrading to 4.4. After spending some time troubleshooting, I found the issue lies with the folder permission for media_rw. Change it to rwx for group should solve the issue.
Download ROM Toolbox from Google Play to edit the permissions for the folder.
I thought that there was a mention of changing the SELinux to permissive. then Unmount SD and mount again. then it should show up on the root directory.

From what I know this is a known issue and hasn't been addressed yet except for some workaround's mentioned above. Since Quantum is based off of the CM11 source code, many bugs found in the nightly's are present in the beta's for Quantum. Ext-sd card support hasn't been fixed yet in the CM11 nightly's so I wouldn't expect it to work aside from workarounds.
Thanks for all the replies.... I have tried everything you guys have mentioned, but no luck. I realize that it is not a problem with Quantum and understand that 4.4 is still relatively new... This is the only little thing that bugs me, but I can wait for it to be fixed later... I clean flashed the latest and greatest from Quantum this morning and all I have to say is.... WOW!!! It's friggin awesome...
Im running Quantum V3, 4.4.1 KitKat on AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3. Last night I played around with phone, unmounted SD card cuz I needed to check my battery drainage. After I remounted it, ESfile explorer says that sdcard1 has "Invalid path". Even tho in settings > storage, it shows that there is sd card and how much space there's left on it...
I did a clean flash of the ROM before if that matters. I don't wanna reflash it and arrange all the apps all over again...
Also when I check the sd card through the app folders, aka in storage/sdcard1, it shows files and everything. What could be the issue that I cant get it to work?

Probably one of the bugs with the latest update by PwnCakes. Maybe you didn't unmount properly, or try formatting the sd card and plug it in again?
I have the same exact thing.
Sigh, at least I'm not alone xD
And I didn't try formatting, got 27 gig stuff on my SD card and unfortunately no space on HDD to copy all the stuff :/
Shame I ain't got enough posts to reply in PwnCakes thread...
I think it might actually be a bug within the rom itself OR ES file explorer. I had this bug since I think a few releases ago
I have the exact same problem. Under "device", i have two copies of extSDcard. I also get the "invalid path" when i tap on sdcard1. I guess i'll wait for a fix, as i don't want to uninstall ES File Explorer, and reinstall, just to lose everything.

Temporary ES File Explorer Workaround for SD Card and Ext SD Card
Sorry it took so long. Just got done finals and had to get the bus. Below is the settings that you guys can use to make it almost as if nothing was wrong with ES.
Set your directory settings for Home to the External SD Card
Change the default window settings to the following: Sdcard, Home, whatever else you want loaded AFTER these
This will make it so that the first loaded 'window' of ES is the device's internal memory. Then it will load the external SD card as the second 'window'. As long as you check it in the proper order, it will load just fine.

Followed directions, and i get LAN with a blank page, then i still have to tap on the top of the app, and go into the directory to find sd card, and ext sd card(which used to be sd card1. What would happen if i wiped data on ES File Explorer, deleted the app, and then reinstalled it? Thanks for any help.

Idk how you got LAN. Uncheck all of the windows then select them in the order I provided. Also make sure home directory is set to your external SD card at whatever path it is. Also can you provide a screenshot?

O.K.,now. LAN was checked, in windows settings, but i didn't see it. If the problem is ES File Explorer, will it be fixed in the next upgrade? I've never had this problem with my other roms. Thanks for the help.:good:

I'll be honest with you. I check play d store almost daily to see if there is anything new with ES. I don't know. It might be a problem with the selinux transition from 4.3 to 4.4. It could be a million things but I think its just some back end code for the file system. :/

Right, so in your opinion, wiping & uninstalling, then reinstalling would just bring back the same problem?

Just found FX File Explorer. It works perfectly, and also has a "dark theme", which i like. There's a root access add-on with it, also for free, but it's telling me to grant it root access using my installed "SuperUser" app. How do i do that with that app? Thanks, again for all your help.:good:

Super user should pop up a prompt if you're rooted. Also, I know the error that breaks ES but idk how to fix it myself. Is a problem with permissions.xml

I get the prompt, but it keeps being denied by SU, however, it goes into Titanium Backup. I'm wondering if i really need root access. I don't think that i have it with ES File Explorer.

@grunt0300 if you really want, I can take a look into the permission.xml. however, no way I am making the commits to my device at the moment. All I know (without looking up the exact wording) is that in permissions.xml is a line for read external storage and that line is set to media/mnt/sdcard instead of storage/sdcard1.

64GB Gskill SDXC card which is brand new doesn't mount in my G3...while it mounts in my S5 no problem. Another SD card i have doesn't mount in my G3 either.
BUT
If i use some disk partition apps, the card is recognized and I can reformat/delete/create, all that stuff. Bottom line is that it doesn't mount (option to mount is grayed out in settings).
Not sure what's going on, nothing is physically damaged but something is for sure going on.

If you changed the DPI by editing the build.prop, I and others have experienced the same problem.

Wow really? Well that would include me, I'll try a fresh ROM and see what's up.

You don't need to reflash, you can either change it back to 640 or use App Settings in Xposed and change com.android.systemui. That seems to work as expected as long as you don't go below 530. Check out the DPI thread in this forum.

Thanks, but no dice. I'm going to try a fresh install.
EDIT: Got it working, installed fresh ROM and didn't touch the DPI, going to lower DPI and see if I can cause the same problem.

Last night, I deleted a line from build.prop. I reboot the phone and no sd card all of sudden. TWRP recognized it, but not Android. Scratching my head, I spent some time troubleshooting. When comparing the edited file to a backup, I realized the Solid Explorer Text Editor was displaying a limited amount of characters or lines. When I saved the file after the edit, it excluded a bunch of lines from the bottom of the build.prop file. Obviously, some of those lines were related to the sd card.
I only mention this in case others run into the same issue.

Yea, thanks, changed DPI again and same issue happened...dirty flashed ROM and SD card showed back up. (changing DPI back doesn't bring SD card back)
Going to try and change DPI with xposed and see what happens.
