[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] vebulous:
It mounts the /storage/extSdCard (your external SD card) as /storage/sdcard0 (to mimic your internal sdcard partition from the nand)

on the flip side, it mounts /storage/sdcard0 (your internal sdcard partition from the nand) as /storage/extSdCard (your extrnal SD card).

This DOES NOT FREE UP ANY STORAGE. But if you happen to have a larger external card (32 or 64 gb) it should help alleviate the limited 10 gb internal SD card partition.

NOTE: nand is you internal space. This is equal to 16 gb. Of this 16 gb, you only get to play with 10 or 11 gigs or so, since the rest is occupied by the bootloader, recovery partition, system, data, etc.

on a related note:

Reformat your external SD card (i.e. sd card) and format /system, and /data while in TWRP or CWM recovery. Then do a fresh flash your the ROM.

And to sum up the initial problem with adding this (internal/external memory swap) to the rom (i hope you don't mind my little critique, ptmr3):

Swapping internal and external sd card partitions is a good idea ONLY if the following conditions are met:

1) Internal sd is clean (has zero or small number of files) and external is clean (has no files) ~ but veb, how do I shot web- I mean- flash ROM?

That's a good question. :cool: (it goes on your internal card)

2) Your external is at least a Class 10 card. The speed benefits would actually benefit (well, whaddaya know). Class 4 cards are not really that slow, but still slow enough to cause your phone to scratch its head (if it had one) once in a while. (ps, if you don;t know what I'm talking about, im 99.9999% sure you have a Class 4 card)

3) You fully understand how posix partitions work. You FULLY understand how posix partitions work. YOU fully understand how posix partitions work.

Only if you want to. The ROM comes with a custom kernel (in this case, Jedi Master 16 is paired with SaberKernel 35.5). But, if you chose, you can flash any T-Mobile-based kernels on top (ex: stock kernel, Perseus, a different version of SaberKernel...that's all that come to mind).

It's all about choice.

35.5 Confirmed. It's probably a typo in the OP.

Here's your compliment: great job :good:

Sound like bad downloads OR bad restores. If you used Helium or Titanium Backup, do not restore everything there may be something in the last version that if restored in the new one creates 1 divided by 0. And we all know that happens when when we divide by zero....

Also, always confirm and reconfirm MD5 after you move the zip to your phone (of course, before flashing :p).

As for the defrag.....I'm skeptical that this helped. I haven't done windows "stuff" in a while (defrag, chkdsk, etc) so I may be incorrect when I say this, but does a defrag even do anything to FAT32? I've been spoiled by ext partition schemes :laugh:

And it is always suggested to format /system, /cache, /data and /data/dalvik-cache

/sdcard or /storage/sdcard0 or /data/media all point to the same place: your internal storage. I don't think it's necessary to format that, but I'm sure it did help.

gmail app has been having this problem for a long while. Lately it hasn't been happening to me though. Make sure you update to the latest release (version 4.5.2-714156 is what I have). Also, a lot of folk reported clearing the data and cache for the app helped. If you do a google search, there's several forums that are battling this issue. The weird part is that it doesn't affect all of the users.

If all else fails, whenever you need to send an email, do it though their mobile site (in the browser; old-fashioned style)
