3. Replacing Internal SD with External SD:

Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?pooy45nkesd7h2i

Guide:

1. Flash in recovery

To remove this delete /system/etc/init.d/97ext2sd

(+)

Easy to use

You don't need to configure

If you have fast sdcard your system will be also faster

(-)

If you have slow sdcard your system will work slower. You must have class 10 sdcard to have fast device.

All apps will store data to sdcard.

hi artas182x,when i turn on the phone sometimes, usually 1 out of 2 no detects the external sd as internal sd.why this happens?

Hi, when I'm trying to mount my second partition (formatted with ext4, got error, then reformatted as fat32) with Link2SD, I've got mount error. Little bit searching reveal something about NAND lock on L9. I can't get information how to unlock NAND on L9. I had experience previously on my old Galaxy Ace using CM 7.2 using Link2SD flawlessly. Can you help me with this?

Thank you :)

EDIT: do I need to use CMW to create second partition?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] victle:
ray, try to change the second partition to Primary. I got the same mount error and this resolved it.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] raymonthly:
Thank you for your answer victle, it worked. Some interesting observation:

1. When first partition on SD is primary and the second is logical, my L9 P765 failed to detect presence of SD card. It's like sd card not mounted.

2. L9 support ext4 as second partition filesystem, figured it out after issuing command "mount" in Terminal as root.

Hope this help other's who got same problem.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] artit:
I don't know what you mean "Inverted mount". That is default mount point for my phone. L9 mount /sdcard to internal memory (this mount not in vold.fstab and I cannot find where it is) and use /sdcard/external_sd for external sd card. I don't change it. I'm using Link2SD and DirectoryBind to move app+data to my external sd.

And sd card as internal.

Sorry I'm a noob. Boot into recovery how? Install what from zip and how? This is exactly what I want to do is make my external SD read as my internal. Also wouldn't we have to transfer all files from internal SD (internal memory) over to the external? Sorry LG but calling the internal storage SD is so stupid.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] soldierexile:
If you rooted your phone, Install Clock Work Mod,(CWM) from the cwm installer.apk found here on the site. it will then give you the option to boot into recovery if you launch the isntaller. once in CWM recovery install the script using the install from zip option. And you should be done, If it doesnt work I cant help you, Because It didnt work for me.

theres a link to the script to use from smanager (script manager) which you use from a .txt file but change it to .sh and then run the smanager to use the script. If that doesnt work, either your still in the same boat as me, and need further instuction as i do.

if anyone here had this issue and/or knows how to get this to work, Please let us know as I and others may need further help. Thank you. :):confused:

Okay I have got a switch to work, Followed guide from this link. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2108775

To get it to work, I downloaded the .txt provided dont just copy and paste the script to a text file. You dont need Root explorer Just us Smanager and remember to select use this directory and Brick when it warns you about pasting the file in system/etc Dont forget to rename the file extention from .txt to .sh

Follow the steps after you download the file. (I clicked the download file and it just opened a page in Chrome if you use chrome just right click, save as- text doc.

like I said it only worked if I downloaded the .txt provided in the link. Root explorer is nice if you do decide to use it, remember to change from R/O to R/W when pasting the file in system/etc folder. Root explorer does not warn you that you may brick you phone when editing files in that folder. As long as you dont delete anything you Did not put there you will be fine. To undo just delete script and reboot phone.

I try to swap memory after I rooted my phone but it has some strange error when phone internal memory (real phone internal) nearly full. I cannot install new app even my SD has a lot of space available, got not enough space alert and also got a warning sign in top bar. Today I saw someone got same error as me. Not sure what I miss when swap memory or it's a normal behavior if we use that script to swap phone internal memory with external sd.

Please try to open "System Setting" > "Apps" and see if you "Internal Storage" size is your SD or phone internal memory. For me "System Setting" > "Storage" show that memory are swap but "System Setting" > "Apps" available space is around 2.3G.

So I use Link2SD and DirectoryBind instead after try swap method 2 times.

Yeah I got to that part and saw the word "Brick" and ran for the hills because I have no idea what I am doing. Still not sure if I will use this method or Link2SD now. Seems like some are having issues with both.

Hello Friends,

I have tried above method and it works fine, but the problem m facing is that when i flashed something from CWM and rebooted my device, the memories exchanged back to default. When I tried to flash above zip again, it didn't work.

can any one help me to solve this issue.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] soldierexile:
Blackman, the brick part is okay, your not deleting anything. Its a curtesy warning if you use root explorer it deosnt warn you at all. Link2sd works but still leaves large data deposits on the interna sd in the obb folder. Databind is nice and works as well but you have to enable it and transfer the files which is anoying till its all setup. The script is just a one time thing quick and easy. And no hassle later on untill u upgrade your sd then u just copy n paste files from one sd to the other.

Gdjin. Did you save the settings of the .sh file after clicking su/boot. And dont uninstal smanager im not sure if u must keep it or not. And make sure the .sh file is on the system etc folder so it doesnt get lost. Plus use the download do not justcopy and paste the text. It should work on all the L9 models.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] alienkid:
That script only switches the names of external sd with sd card which still isn't the internal memory. It doesn't actually do the one thing that you need it to do which is let you use the free space on your external sd card as usable storage space for the data that automatically goes to internal memory without some extra hackery.

I'm not entirely sure because I haven't gotten the 3rd option to work, but I'm guessing the 3rd option on this guide might not be the solution we are looking for either because it would seem that this thread and this technique would get more attention with all of the people with bloatware filled low storage devices.

I just wish I could get my phone to ignore the internal memory altogether and let it run the OS and everything else directly from the external SD card.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Blackman75:
Directory Bind didn't work for me. Kept freezing at 100%.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] soldierexile:
Directory bind should of worked. Did you try with the script again, Try it with it left on your internal storage in your android/data folder. It should still work, Putting it in your System/etc is just to keep you from deleting it on accident. If it doesnt work in your internal sd then try the System/etc if you are willing to ignore the brick warning like I did.

Ok will give that a shot. If I switch to Jellybean after all this will things go wonky? Should I wait to do all this till after the switch?

Oh and can I change it all back if I should ever choose in favor of another method?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] soldierexile:
Yea you can change it back. Just delete the script and reboot the phone because when you save the script you checked a setting that tells it to run on boot. If you didnt then whenever u reboot you would have to manualy run the script. Once it runs you may have to plug the phone into the pc and move the android folder over to your micro sd but thats if you have apps that you already installed.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Blackman75:
And that would be to avoid FC right? Also if I change back then I would have to just change the android folder back to the internal memory? Maybe that is my problem because I was trying to take all contents of internal and change it to the SD external memory. Do I just need to transfer the Android folder?

And will switching to Jellybean mess any of this up?
