wouldn't the microSD be slower than the internal storage? Basically if you swap them then it would also maybe take longer to save/load files etc?

How are your experiences with this, do you recognize any differences? Maybe also do some benchmark tests comparing pre swap and swaped versions of your note.

I think this would help me consider using your method :) maybe it would help also others who aren't sure about it yet.

great work though!

EDIT:

I also have a second question: What happens if you take out the sd card? wouldnt it take out the "system" as it is on the sdcard storage due to the swap?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] mitchellvii:
Ah OK let me see if I get this. What your script does is make my tablet see the external SDCard as if it is the internal memory and vice versa? So if I run this I need to basically just copy everything on my internal card to my external card?

Is the internal memory faster than the external if I have a Class 6 SdCard for instance? Will this cause lag in launching Apps?

And i guess we need to flash your rom so we have unit.d support for this to work?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] zedomax:
Yes exactly, I don't really see much lag even with a Class 2 but I do recommend higher Class 6 just in case. You need a ROM with init.d support or kernel yes OR you can try using Script Manager app, I heard it works but haven't tried it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] mentalcase87:
I have always used a2sd on my phone so I am quite used to this all. But now that I have this and am looking to get a 64gb card I am starting to wonder if there is anyway to still utalize the 16gb that the device would have since it would be writing 90% to the card. I know a tiny amount still goes to the internal but I wonder if there is any way to pick and choose when you have so much space on either side.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] zedomax:
Not really atm.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] truthkillszz:
I can't wait to try this my 64gb class 10 should come in tomorrow
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] Craiq:
Iam running rooted stock.

Script manager is installed and everything works like it did before (class 10 SD card)

PS: when you use the copy option from the script you need to manually delete the target folder

This isnt working for my 64gb

Edit: turns out it was my card. I went to format it and its partition Now is 27gb so something went wrong. My 32 works flawlessly
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] fauzin:
I use 64GB classs 10, its formatted with exfat, when I use your script no changes (internal sd still original), when I formated my sd card to fat32 then it work fine. Is it can not worked with exfat sd card?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] zedomax:
It should, not sure why but I am looking into it when I have some time.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] JuniorGG:
Hi zedomax!

Thank you! Your trick is great!

I have just ordered the 16 GB version of this tablet today, not sure if I made the right choice, but here in my country the only version available at present is the 16Gb, with option for 3G or not (which I choose to tick).

Well, I'd like to know just a couple of things, of which I'm shure you have the answer:

- Why does the photo in your first post only show 32GB internal memory? Shouldn't these be 64?

- Are there any downsides (read/write speed in particular) in using a microSD card formatted as FAT32, instead of exFAT?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] Goldendawn:
Hi Can I just confirm this - does this mean the Internal Memory is off limits to the device or just mean it becomes like the Ext-Memory right now (you can put your own stuff on there, but the system doesn't store apps on there).

Really disappointed that Android decided to stop the Move To SD option in Android! :(
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] htainlin:
Work well with 32GB microSD class 10. However, Task Manager's and camera's storage don't know the MOD. May be they use different path. Otherwise, this is awesome.

Hello guys

Thanks a LOT!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] Duburrr:
If it has init.d support I think it should work, I'm no expert but all the roms with init.d support I have tried the script runs on it, flash the zip with cwm, download and install busybox app if you havnt allready and download SManager, open SManager navigate to system/ect/init.d/11extsd2internalsd. Ensure "is executable" is selected and "SU" and "boot" are checked, hit save exit app reset tablet (may take a couple of resets) and should work.

tips if you had it running before and install new rom

So I had the script running fine on the Redemption Rom (1st time I used it). When the US JB 4.1.2 came out I disabled the script, installed rom and re-installed the script. It worked but then memory was reporting the same for card and internal. I had to unmount/mount sd card to make it report proper values. A real pain in the arse. What I ended up doing was starting over by reformatting my sdcard and used the NOTE 2 script. Only thing was I had to xfer my Titanium backup to HD (which I had on my sd card) before format and transfer back so I could restore all apps/data. Now all is well, I am on the latest US Rom and the memory is reporting back to normal. :o:o
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] pre4speed:
Wow that sounds like a *****. I'm just gonna leave it. I was actually thinking its prolly not a good mod for me to run anyway as I'm always downloading things to my sd then transferring my sd to other devices to transfer what I downloaded. Lol
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] lisa2blonde:
quick question: will i still get official updates once rooted?

im in the UK and just waiting for the JB update 4.1.2 to arrive then i was planning on rooting and running this script. However, I'm an impatient girl and so im temped to just go ahead and run the script. Anyhow, Rather than flashing the german version i just wanted to OTA/Keis the upgrade but didn't want the rooting to ruin the natural(ish) process.

2ndly, once rooted can the note 10.1 be 'unrooted'?

thanks in advance boys n girls :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] flippingout:
You can use the exploit app on Google Play to root your device. Then when you want unroot just go backninto the app and unroot. Takes two seconds each way. If you install a custom ROM (or another country's ROM) your device will not update OTA.

This will work with any ROM 11extsd2internalsd

Folks,

This is my 11extsd2internalsd:

#!/system/bin/sh

#extsd2internalsd is a modification that allows to switch internal sd to external sd and viceversa. With this you can use default internal sd only for app storage #and the external sd to store all apps resource and all others stuff. The resut is a very big increase of installable apps on gs3

#All credits to Mattiadj of xda forum for the idea and script and to mike1986 for the cmw zip.

#xda thread url at

#Script Modified for U.S. Galaxy S3s by Zedomax at GalaxyS3Root.com to be compatible when sdcard is not inserted.

busybox mount -o remount,rw /

busybox mount -t vfat -o umask=0000 /dev/block/vold/179:33 /mnt/sdcard

busybox mount -t exfat -o umask=0000 /dev/block/vold/179:33 /mnt/sdcard

if busybox mount | busybox grep vold/179:33; then

busybox mount -o bind /data/media /mnt/extSdCard

fi

Please notice where it is mounting the SD Cards. So if yours quit working with a new rom then navigate with root explorer to /dev/block/vold

There should be 2 files in there. examples: 179:32 and 179:33 you want to record the second file name.

Then open your 11extsd2internalsd file with Notepad+++ and change the 3 locations to the second file name you found in dev/block/vold save changes and replace your old 11extsd2internalsd file.

By default in 11extsd2internalsd I had 179:17 but in folder /dev/block/vold I currently have 6 files (16, 17, 32, 33, 48, 49). After it failed with default 17 I tried changing this to 179:33 and didn't work. It worked with the last number 49. Does that mean I should update the numbers to 179:65, next 179:81 every time when it fails and re-run the script?

In the morning the script failed and in /dev/block/vold I have files 65 and 81. It worked with 65, not 81. Is there any way this could be set permanently?

Almost works for me. I see that my 32GB card is now set to internal storage, and the 11GB portion is set as external. It just doesn't actually work. All of my apps just install to the 11GB partition. So it isn't using my 32GB for the one and only thing I need it for - Applications and their data files.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

Collective v6 - Fresh install (3x Wipe, internal, external, system, data, cache, dalvik)

Booted - 10 min wait - Reboot into recovery - flash app2sd script - boot system - copy all data from 11GB to 32GB - Installed Smanager - /system/ect/init.d - Executable+BOOT+SU + Save & Run - reboot - run smanager again - reboot - It now shows 29GB internal, and 11GB external. When I install apps they install to the 11GB partition.

What am I missing / doing wrong / being dumb about?

(N8013 - Rooted - Collective v6)

Going to go ahead and Odin to stock with a complete repartition. Then install CWM instead of TWRP, and try from scratch again.

Will report back in a couple hours.

Problems since updating ROM

I used to use Redemption ROM V4.2 and this script worked fine.

I've changed dev/block/vold/179:17 to 49 on both lines as I read on another forum but now it won't see my internal memory at all? It sees the external 64GB as internal AND external!

Please help.

Hey Jesus,

Hope this works. Please let me know if it doesn't

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/20993438/apk/os.tools.scriptmanager-1.apk

I noticed that smanager was not available last time I tried to find it on the market, it must have been at one time though. I think it's something to do with the scalling as the text is quite tiny on my note 10.1

Edit:

Sorted it. I kept the first 179:49 the same, the second 179:49 I changed to 179:17 and the third 179:49 I left as it is. This seems to work for my 64GB SD card formated as fat32. Tell me if I am wrong.

This script great work on Rom Revolution HD 5.0 ?? Thanks..
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] LinoX:
Working script

For those with read only storage:

I wrote this script and I use that in init.d. It works flawlessly.

#!/system/bin/sh

sleep 5;
busybox mount -o move /storage/sdcard0 /storage/extSdCard;
busybox mount -t exfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /data/media -o rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,nodiratime,uid=1023,gid=1023,umask=0000,fmask=0000,dmask=0000,errors=remount-ro;
busybox mount -o bind /data/media /storage/sdcard0;

In this way both storage cards point at the same microsd (when the system detects there's a microsd some programs point to the external one, ie downloads, in this way all the programs will point to the same external storage) and you have all the internal nand 16gb for app/data and 64 as sdcard for external data (like game addons and ****)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] galaxy-s-freak:
Follow the instructions in post 1, if that does not swap your external memory with your internal memory then follow the steps in post 25, you will need to download smanager from my link in post 223 as it is no longer available on the Android Play store. If you are still having problems then repost on here. Please let us know if you have root and what ROM you are using as I had trouble with Redemption rom at first but fixed it with some changes to the script, however Omega ROM V2.1 which I've gone back to worked flawlessly with just flashing the script using CWM.

Take care and don't forget to click on my thanks meter if I helped you.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] omnia1994:
Glad to hear that. can u providee a tutorial?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] LinoX:
tutorial for what? to use it?:o

It's simple:

provided that you have a rooted rom with init.d support (it can be added simply to the stock rom, I have the original CMC5) you can put the contents of the post in a init.d script (that is run at every boot) and that's all.

init.d scripts are in /etc/init.d folder. if it's missing from your device then you don't have init.d support on your rom (and you could add it in some cases or change rom)

If you need more in depth details let me know, I'll try to be more detailed once home (in 9 hours) but if you don't know what a rooted rom (or an init.d script) is you should avoid messing with system (or carefully follow instructions) because a wrong operation could result in an unusable device.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] omnia1994:
Nop.. i have had this script running for a long time :)but i would like to know how did u make the original internal storage from read only to writable:)

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] LinoX:
with the script I posted you don't see the "internal storage" anymore. you will have both internal (sdcard0) and external (extSdCard) storage pointing to the SDCARD. You can also unmount (NOT FORMAT) the external storage if needed (for any reason) from settings leaving the "internal" working (but it's pointless to do that).

In this way all the internal(literally) storage will be used for app+data and the sdcard for external storage (as it was initially intended with android). All the "storage card" writes will go to the sdcard (not to the 16gb internal memory). Every app that wants to persist external data (for settings export or large data like games addons) will write to the SD and not to the device storage.

One last word: That method requires the SD card to be inserted, I didn't check for its presence in the script because it would be pointless to take the card out and still use the script. If you need to take out the card for any reason turn off the tablet first or data loss can occur because there's no way to safely unmount (from settings) the "internal" storage (that effectively points to the SDcard). :)
