You're telling people who have Use Internal ticked that they are wrong, when you are wrong.

Anyway, I'm done with this, you're wrong a number of people have pointed out that you're wrong but you insist that you're right, I just hope people who are confused have the good sense to ignore you.
[Galaxy S II General] furyau:
Either way is right,

However some apps are hardcoded to install to sdcard.

So it is not possible to have internal memory mounted as emmc and all apps installed to the internal memory. Also those without external sdcards will get errors installing apps that are hardcoded for sdcard when the internal memory is mounted as emmc.

Hence the CM9 default is now to have internal memory mounted as sdcard. You can change this by unticking 'use internal storage' if you so wish! But then you will end up with some apps putting data in emmc and some in sdcard.
[Galaxy S II General] Kung-Fu-Tse:
thx :) same like you :)
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I'm sure 22/04 build will solve all the confusion.

Who want cm standard way SD card

emmc = internal

sdcard = external

can un-tick in storage configuration and use it

and who don't want cm standard way and liked the old way

emmc = external

sdcard = internal

can leave the tick like that...

THANKS A LOT CODEWORK
[Galaxy S II General] giosoliman:
CM Standard

emmc = internal memory

sdcard = external memory card

uhm. In 04/20 the default storage became the external sd card(sdcard), but most of the users lacked an external memory card and so they cannot take pictures in camera, gallery not displaying pics and unable to install apps. The workaround for this is to tick the use internal storage in settings but by ticking that settings, emmc = external memory card and sdcard = internal memory now. Because most of the apps and code simply put the files onto sdcard, the 4/20 implementation made the apps go to sdcard which is now the external memory card.. ticking the settings now made the sdcard become internal again like in the past prior to 4/20..

Now in 4/21.. people who do a clean install will tick the "use internal memory" settings by default, thus making the sdcard= internal memory. This will not change because the team is making the implementation up to cm standards so there is nothing wrong..

Would have been nice to see

[Galaxy S II General] CA3iR0:
Why change the internal memory name to SDCard, if it isn't a card?

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/14968/

I don't get the idea...
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Mainly it prevents the /emmc partition from being named 'Internal Storage' if it's mounted as the external as in when Use Internal Storage is ticked.
[Galaxy S II General] giosoliman:
Im not sure but try this.

Settings -> Advanced -> (under radio tab) tap hspa -> tick HSDPA only
[Galaxy S II General] CA3iR0:
So what's the problem of naming it as "internal storage" instead of "SDCard" (this will happen only in the next build)?

Assume I'm only using the internal memory (I do not have any SDCard installed). Why do I have to choose/tick SDCard, if I don't even have one installed?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Before the change emmc was named internal storage, sdcard was named SD card, the problem with that is that if you don't have an external card or you have Use Internal Storage ticked, emmc is mounted as the external storage but would still be named internal storage, that's why they are both named sd card now in the change, since the values are coded into an xml file I don't think its possible to dynamically change the names based on the mount points.
[Galaxy S II General] crazyonins:
Thanks pare! Im always getting 2g..using globe btw :)
[Galaxy S II General] MountainX:
I'd like to get an update on this too. Has this changed in the latest nightly? I do not see a module md4.ko (unless I'm looking in the wrong places).

I'm trying to get cifs to work on CM 9-20120418 (but for the Galaxy Nexus GSM).
[Galaxy S II General] CA3iR0:
Ok, thanks! My doubts are answered :D

But in my head I still think it's a bit strange having to choose/tick SDCard to use the phone's internal memory :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
The CM standard mount points are:

emmc = internal

sdcard = external

this causes problems because a lot of apps try to install their data on sdcard, if you have no external sdcard then they can't save their data or post errors like the camera says 'you need to insert an sdcard before using the camera' the tick changes it back to the previous behavior (aka non standard cm, but perfectly valid)

sdcard = internal

emmc = external

the problem was that emmc was staticly named internal storage, the change we're talking about just changed that to sd card so that there wouldn't be confusion in this event, nothing else.
[Galaxy S II General] CA3iR0:
This last update still got the "bermudas triangle compass" bug...

@thracemerin: Ok, I've made a fresh install of codeworkx's 22nd build & did a factory reset. Use internal storage box is checked. In addition I have to mention that I do not have a micro SD Card installed on my phone. Is it the correct setup?

From what I've understood it should have been /emmc for internal storage and /sdcard for the micro SD as per CM standards, the problem is that I've experienced some issues that you've described in a previous post regarding the camera app that required an sdcard in order to function.

From my perception the concept of changing the mount points is a good thing, but it affects the users that do not have an external memory card. Yes, this should be the right way, multimedia content ( camera, videos, music) on sdcard and apps and other things on emmc. Correct me if I'm wrong, I don't mind, I just want to do things right so that I could benefit from the phone since it had a hard time flashing and wiping for the past 2-3 days :), I should give it a rest ,lol.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Well, it depends, if you want pictures, app data, etc... to stay on your non-removable storage (internal) then leave Use Internal checked. If you would prefer them to be on the removable storage (external), then uncheck it and reboot.

checked

sdcard = internal

emmc = external

unchecked

sdcard = external

emmc = internal
[Galaxy S II General] Ramelov:
It's interesting to compare how the same changes to mount points are introduced by device maintainer for other Samsung telephones http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/14981/ and the second commit which that one depends on. He uses slightly different values than Codeworkx in his latest patch.

I managed to replicate a crash of Temple Run whilst connected to adb so copied the logcat: http://paste.ubuntu.com/940734/

Really doesn't seem to shoe anything though, had this happen a few times where the screen freezes on and the last second of sond gets played rapidly on a loop, and the only way to quit is to force a reset by holding the power button down. On previous builds I also had this error occur when playing video and not just games (otherwise I'd have just assumed this abug with Temple Run), haven't replicated that so far with codeworx 22nd build. Nothing seem obvious on the logcat though, it just seems to stop

- Download GApps and put it onto your internal sdcard

- Open Odin

- Choose cm-9-XXXXXXXX-ODIN-galaxys2.tar.md5 as PDA

- Boot your phone into download mode

- Connect your device via usb to your computer

- Wait till Odin has fully recognized your phone

- Hit the start button and wait till the flash process is finished

- Device boots automatically into recovery

- Flash GApps, wipe cache and dalvik-cache

- Reboot into CM9

- Follow above steps to update CM9 to lastest available version (Upgrading from earlier version of CyanogenMod 9)

[Galaxy S II General] espenfjo:
This is an issue with the RIL (Binary file from Samsung) which do not report the correct status.

In a Samsung ROM it will only update to the correct status if one goes to Settings -> About -> Phone or something like that.

So if it were to be fixed one would have to figure out what samsung does there, and hack that somewhere..

So.. Dont get your hopes up on a quick fix. It is just a minor annoyance.
[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
for the past pages since codeworkx posted the 22th build people have been talking that emmc should be external internal blah b lah blah

but i guess the correct question is ... will apps installed from google play that automaticallty install files on sd card ( like Gun Bros or Air Attack HD etc etc) dissapear after a reboot or is this problem now solved ?

Thank you
[Galaxy S II General] Molitro:
My phone was showing the wrong information in storage. The sd card was being shown where internal should be and vice versa. This may seem like an unimportant problem, but was causing trouble actually moulting the sd card. Sometimes it just didn't mount, and caused some apps to crash, or even didn't let the phone reboot, as no memory was in the place of the internal.

Didn't seem like the change of names should correct that, but apparently it did. Now storage shows everything in its place, and the phone has no problems mounting the sd card.

So I guess that last change in codeworkx build did the trick

[Galaxy S II General] lukepev:
So the original change of mount points was to say goodbye to Samsungs bad naming convention.

I understood that after the 19th nightly no matter whether u had the storage option ticked to use internal or external as default for apps.

That the internal memory would be called emmc regardless of tick.

That external would be called sdcard regardless of tick.

Now its all been cancelled and ticking the storage option will make whatever u want to be the default for apps have sdcard as its name.

And the reason for this is because some apps are hard coded for sdcard rather than checking for default storage
[Galaxy S II General] oaia:
no, problem solved !
[Galaxy S II General] Fr33L4nc3r:
So basically, for people having a MicroSD card, the default behaviour of Codeworkx's build (422) is strictly the same as before the swap change ****storm, is that right ? (e.g I'm on 414)

In theory then, is it strictly needed to wipe everything ?

As I understand it, you have to choose when you set up your phone to have "Use Internal Storage" ticked or not and stick to it and not change it afterwards (otherwise some ****ty apps are screwed) ?

On a side note, nobody answered to my comment about HTC phones which seems to be named correctly. How do Apps behave if I had an HTC without microSD, hence no /sdcard (internal system storage + /emmc) ?

just downloaded the latest nightly with ROM Manager, but when the installation starts i got an error cause the recovery can't find the downloaded file ... any tip?
[Galaxy S II General] GFXi0N:
So, with the last configuration and way of thinking.... if i leave the option unticked: Everything willl be stored on the external card, pictures, apps, configs etc...... my question is: What is the internal memory good for then? Storing MP3 and movies?

My way of thinking is:

Internal memory -> Faster than Sdcard

Internal memory cannot be removed or pulled out (as the microsd can be, which maybe you want to use it in two different devices)

So, what is the logic for using the external card for everything? In my opinion its just a mess, dangerous (because it can be unmounted more easily) and slower....

Internal SD -> Apps, configs, apps downloaded data

External SD -> Music, pictures, Movies, backups?

Is it so strange to think like this? xD

Exactly, if the application devs used absolute paths (which we've been lead to believe) then on HTC or on other android phones which have named the storage correctly, these apps should fall over and die? Especially if the phone does not have a SD card inserted. Seems like the apps are pulling the storage names from a as-yet-undiscovered source.
[Galaxy S II General] miketwn:
not necessary....especially if not using ext sdcard.......
[Galaxy S II General] superjojo29:

[Galaxy S II General] AvRS:
Sorry but this is complete nonsense, they don't build it to your specs so why should they ask anyone? If a dev believes something is useful then they submit it, it gets reviewed by a number of other devs and then gets merged. From what I read about that it will now be a preference and not forced as it is now, isn't that a good thing, giving the user more choice? Who cares whether they qualify it as a niche setting. I'm sure for a lot of people they won't even notice the option if they don't look for it so ignore it and carry on as normal.
[Galaxy S II General] Grimbolt:
I assume the devs provide different apks for different devices and hard-code the storage paths accordingly.

---------- Post added at 11:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 AM ----------

Will we ever have the perfect solution of:

Internal storage = emmc

External storage = sdcard

All apps and data will be installed by default on emmc? (Or an option to pick which storage is used)

That, in my eyes, is the ideal way forward.
