Hi I am hoping this app will solve my issue but I don't understand it greatly. I am using dual boot tw and cm with the sole purpose of the second OS is to run just one app to save me needing another device, problem is they seem to use the same folder and conflict with each other and can only get the app to run on either one. Would folder mount fix this by moving the data on say the rom #1 to the internal sd and mounting it on boot where it originally was with rom #2 able to run from the system memory as it shouldnt need mounting?Could they somehow conflict? I am confusing myself writing this so have no idea lol but im trying to solve a problem I have been working on since yesterday. Thanks in advance.....Oh and what rom does this app work on as I have issues with it at the moment with unknown error when trying to mount....I would be interested in paying for the full app if this can fix my problem.
[Android Software Development] madmack:
Strange. I have the Note 3 as well (albeit not the latest ROM) and FM works fine. My external sdcard is not strangely unmounted after sometime. My sdcard is 64gb formatted as fat32. and yea, I patched the sdcard module in my note3 prior to using FM.

lol, man. I don't know what exactly you're trying to achieve. All FM does is move internal sdcard data to external sdcard data. I"m not sure about your particular setup because well, it's very uncommon, but you can experiment and play with FM and see what works given that it offers 3 folder pairs for free.
[Android Software Development] brizzol:
Thanks for the reply, yes it is a little complicated lol. I am trying to give it a shot again now on a Google Play edition from for the i9505...Hopefully no errors this time.
[Android Software Development] mbze430:
I did a quick search on this thread for "4.4"....nothing so reporting Android 4.4 issue. (CM11)

FM no longer able to detect obb folder's content. When using App Analyzer.

Manually cofiguring the OBB folder doesn't work either
[Android Software Development] madmack:
you're fast bro. me no have kitkat yet. hopefully the s4 will see it soon and then I'll be able to test it.
[Android Software Development] brizzol:
Hey MadMack can you give me the link or name of a rom that this definitely works on and the correct path to use...I either get an unknown error or no data showing on the app I would like to pin. Thanks
[Android Software Development] madmack:
I'd like to think that it works on any ROM out there. It's what I aim to achieve anyway. I'm using CM10.2 nowadays for example and it works just fine on that.

Unknown error when moving files? Make sure destination has enough space and that both source and destination by any non rooted apps (have read write permission). Make a folder in internal sdcard called test and in external called test2 and bind these first, you can then try different apps. I have MC4 and Asphalt moved to my external nowadays.
[Android Software Development] shajvarg:
Note 3 SDcard unaccessible after using patch

ok, so the only difference is that I am using exfat in the 64GB. So you think fat32 should solve it?

however then I cannot store files > 4gb. my large movies on it defeating the purpose of the 64gb.

also can you tell me how to reverse the patch. I do a bit of work with the terminal emulator & tasker. Bcos otherwise I will have to reflash the phone with stock rom just to undo the patch.

Thanks

Shaju
[Android Software Development] madmack:
I'm not sure if fat32 will fix it for you and yea, you'll lose the bigger than 4gb support.

To revert the patch, delete /system/bin/sdcard and replace it with /system/bin/sdcard.backup then reboot.
[Android Software Development] shajvarg:
kool

will now try out the patch with fat32 for a day and let you know

Hello Dev,

Facing folder mount crashes. Have emailed you the bug report. Please assist.
[Android Software Development] Hikari no Tenshi:
Hi, madmack. Thanks for this great app.

Can You tell me, what files does this "Universal ARMv7 patcher for all users that have a permission error on the external sdcard" changes?

Hi madmack,

just to let you know that with new system update available from ASUS (WW_user_4.2.4.31212_20131030), FolderMount works again on Asus Memo Pad HD7- Me173x
[Android Software Development] madmack:
Awesome. It's good to know :good::good:
[Android Software Development] lambstone:
For some reason auto pairing does not work. Foldermount does not seem to create the folder automatically
[Android Software Development] snake2332:
Thanks for this app, it works great! I use it on my GS4 16GB to mount about 30GB worth of files from /android/data/*.

It still baffles me that Android doesn't give you an option to get /sdcard/ mounted on the actual SD card instead of on internal memory. It makes sense in devices without SD card slots, but not in ones that do. I thought it was hilarious when the GS4 got the update that broke root but gave you the "move to SD" option...only to find that it moves it to /sdcard/ on internal memory. Wow, really useful...

Just now, I set it up on my new Note 10.1 and ended up in a bootloop after moving all of /android/data/obb/. I'm pretty sure some app is trying to start up about 3 seconds after the lock screen shows up, but the app can't find its files so it freaks out and causes a reboot.

Does anyone know a good, quick method to figure out which app is causing the problems? I could unmount then move all the files back (about 15GB) to /sdcard/, then move the folders in /obb/ one or two at a time and reboot to see if a bootloop occurs, but this is a long process when there are 20 different folders in /obb/ that could be causing it. I bet the culprit is one of these Gameloft games trying to run in the background to feed me unneeded notifications. I suppose I could freeze the apps instead of move files around...hmmm, there are probably other ways I could figure this out. I wonder if the logcat live wallpaper shows anything right before the reboot. I've never had to troubleshoot something like this before.
[Android Software Development] madmack:
2.3.7 is out which brings support to Android KitKat and a bunch of other minor bug fixes. Change log in OP.

I guess freezing/unfreezing would be your best bet. I'm not sure I have better options to debug this than what you've already stated.
[Android Software Development] egingell:
I'd hate to be a butt, but it still needs a way to selectively disallow notifications. Especially the huge toast notification.

Send from my SGS4.
[Android Software Development] Athar Mansoor:
Thank you Dev,

This version fixes the FC's on exclude from media gallery.

The beta though doesn't function in a desired manner. It should as the option suggest 'Remove destination files from media scan results' but does quite the opposite of it.. the source files are removed from media scan results. Hope to see a fix for that soon too..

Regards,

Mansoor
[Android Software Development] astonmartin214:
yes to disable the toast notification go to Superuser in setting once there click settings in superuser then scroll down to notifications

then click None & you'll disable all SU notifications
[Android Software Development] egingell:
That is not the notification toast I'm talking about. I'm talking about the toast that FM makes when it's finished mounting. Why would I be talking about SuperSu's toast?

yea man, I haven't changed that. everything I change is in the changelog.

Hi

I've installed the app and tried to make a pair from /sdcard/android/obb on my extsdcard but when I click on Source to select the data an error comes and says Segmentation Fault anyone have an idea what is it about?

Anyone manger to get FM working on Note 3 (SM-9005) ?

I have rooted on stock ROM, when i try to mount KNOX stopping it, then i disable all KNOX software from TB and yet still it wont mount.

Lucky N3 came with 32GB internal storage.
[Android Software Development] snake2332:
I was going to do that but then the apps wouldn't be playable so I installed Autorun Manager and disabled all the games and other apps that I don't want to start on their own. I rebooted without any boot-loop so that's good. I recommend Autorun Manager to anyone else with boot-loop issues.
[Android Software Development] qazmed:
i have foldermount on i9505 rooted with 4.3 mj7 with knox bootloader

whenever i try to cretae pairs it moves the data and everything is ok untill i try to mount it the pin never turns green it says plz wait then nothing the plz wait message goes away and nothing happened any solution??

cud it be due to knox??
[Android Software Development] adenicol:
I have a Samsung s3 running jellybeans 4.1.2 (build 19 by BeansTown). I am able to map a folder manually, the pin goes green and it remounts fine on a reboot.

However, when I go to the app analyzer it shows everything as having a size of zero. Any suggestions on what I can do to get the app analyzer working? It's not a huge deal for me right now, but it would be nice to see what is using up most of the space on my internal storage.
[Android Software Development] Safar_Ibrahim:
Is that Note 3 ? I'm having similar issue with you, pin never turn green.
[Android Software Development] qazmed:

Did u solve it
[Android Software Development] DarkManX4lf:
I'm on paranoid android for the note 2. It's android 4.4 and I can't get folder mount to work. It won't auto detect where the destination folder should be and when I manually set the folder, it will not copy files.

Looks like there is some permission error when I tried to make the folder manually through folder mount.

I am rooted and the folder mount app has su permissions.
[Android Software Development] alershka:
I'm having an issue with my D2VZW running Foldermount 2.3.7 premium on an unofficial CM11 build.

At boot, Foldermount provides the toast message that all folders mounted and there were no errors. However browsing the internal card folders in root explorer show they are empty. If I try to write to them, I get an error indicating the disk may be full.

If I go into Foldermount and unpair all, then pair all, the pairings show in root Explorer and I can write to the folders.

I've tried a one minute delay and auto delay in settings but I still have the problem. Something is happening on boot where it appears that the folder pairs occur but they actually don't.

Thanks for any guidance on this.
[Android Software Development] madmack:
terrible. the busybox binary that ships with FM is segfaulting. If factory resetting does not help, I recommend changing your rom entirely. What device is this on by the way?

I have the Note 3 (N-900T) with knox and stock and all. FM works fine for me.

I can't replicate these errors. Send me a bug report and let's have a look. Reference your post here so I know who's who when you send that bug report.

0 B means the app isn't storing anything /sdcard/Android/* which is the majority of all apps out there.

2 cents:

To be honest, a lot of these unofficial cm11 or aosp 4.4 based roms have inexperienced or unqualified devs. I don't mean any disrespect or gonna name anyone per se, but I've tried several different 4.4 roms for a particular device and all had terrible sdcard implementation. I'm not going to support these roms because even basic apps couldn't write to /storage/sdcard1 in some of these roms for example. My 4.4 support is for official cm11 builds, and only that at the moment. The changes are minor in 4.4 in regards to how sdcards are manipulated, but the devs need to understand these changes and not just "cherry-pick" some commits from devices that have totally different structures.

end of 2 cents.

Interresting is that I can check the freed space on sdcard0 (internal) by ES File Explorer. It can`t show correctly this freed space and calculate only the incruised amount on the extSdCard (even after restart).

By the way, Samsung Task Manager see the changes on system storage.:cowboy:

Good Day! i have a paid version of FM (v2.0.15) i don't have any problems on using your app on my phone (XSP 4.1.2) as of the momment, though i have a couple of questions:

1) Why is that i don't received any notification from google play store that there is a new version for FM? 'coz all of my apps receives notification from Google play store if there is any.

2)Do i have to update my FM or can i leave it as it is? 'coz i don't have any issue whatsoever using this app, and it is working perfectly fine.

3)If i do update to the latest version, will it give me a headache afterwards?

My phone is Xperia SP rooted version by Doomlord rootkit method 4.1.2 jb.

By the way, Thank you very much! i love your app so i purchased the paid version and it really is wonderful! I have ff3 ff4 ff5 MC3 and not to mention 8gb of games/apps on my 4gb internal memory! Thank you BOSS!
[Android Software Development] egingell:
1) Are you updating here when [MENTION=1436971]madmack[/MENTION] posts? Because the Play Store can take hours for an update to be available.

I can update on play store no problem, but i am afraid that it might give me problems once i update it to its latest version.. i don't have any problem with the version installed on my phone (v2.0.15), do you suggest to leave it be or update it? what would be the benefits if i update FM to its latest version? Thank you by the way for the reply,,

Hello Dev,

Hope you are also giving a thought on the current beta functionality of removing/hiding media from destination directory. Currently it functions quite the opposite.. the source is hidden and destination is shown.

Looking forward to a fix on that.

Regards.. Mansoor..
[Android Software Development] madmack:
I honestly don't think I'm going to touch that feature due to a) time constraints and b) priorities. It's a hack at best and I don't want to keep finding out what google did to patch that hack in every android iteration and repatch my app with every version release. Sorry but the BETA tag is staying.
[Android Software Development] Arjav23:
If I have obb folder of 4 gb then ,

1) do I need 4gb free on ext sd for folder mount

2) if I play a game like asphalt 8 will the obb be read from ext sd or will I need to have free space on int sd for that obb to be moved there temporarily

3) any new game dwnlded , will dwnld obb at int sd or ext sd after mounting

Sent from my DEATH NOTE with SHINIGAMI by my side!
[Android Software Development] egingell:
Number 1 is a no brainer. Of course you need at least enough room for all the files.

2. Yes, it reads the files from the SD card. You don't need temp space on the internal.

3. ExtSD.

I've mentioned this before, I think, but I'm mentioning it again. On boot, the folder pairs all get mounted twice resulting in double mounts. I don't notice any performance impact. It's just quirky.

This only happens on my SGS4.

[Android Software Development] madmack:
Very strange. Do you seem to be getting two different "mounting all pairs" notifications after a reboot? I've just went through all the commands for the on boot process and all the mount commands are executed once per stored pair. Only thing that could happen is for the mount service to run twice for some reason (like a race condition).
[Android Software Development] egingell:
Yes. Two notifications. I tried to get a logcat during the process. I don't think I did it right - there were no references to FM.

[Android Software Development] mbze430:
I noticed that I get a "double notification" that it is being mounted twice too!
[Android Software Development] snake2332:
My S4 just mounts once. I am using Jelly Beans rom build 6 based on ME7.
[Android Software Development] madmack:
Those that are getting the mount message twice, do you have a manual delay time set in the settings menu or is it set to the default "auto"? Also, do you get two toast messages with the "fail and success" message or just one? If you have it set to auto, try setting it to run manually after a minute or two and see if the duplication is still happening.

I have the S4 as well and I can't replicate the problem, so try the suggestions on top and lemme know so I can narrow down the scope of investigation in the app's code.
[Android Software Development] egingell:
Was on "auto". Set to 30s. No double mount.

[Android Software Development] mbze430:
Mine is set to auto and and the toast message say it NOT failed. It always complete with out a problem

EDIT1: changed to 2min and only does it once. So it's only when set to auto
[Android Software Development] madmack:
thanks guys. I'll have a look later and see what I can find out. You guys don't have any other mods to your ROM like Xposed installed and what not right?
[Android Software Development] egingell:
Xposed, yes, but it's been doing this long before I installed Xposed and it did it the last two times I reflashed the ROM prior to putting Xposed back on.

SGS2 - JB 4.1.2 GB27

SGS4 - JB 4.2.2 MF9
[Android Software Development] madmack:
Can you please verify that the hiccup is happening on a clean stock ROM with no added modules to it? It'll be a waste of my time to go and chase something that possibly doesn't exist if another third party module is indeed causing this issue. If you can confirm it, please give me the firmware model (MF9? stock or custom rom?) so I can try to flash it and replicate the issue.
[Android Software Development] egingell:
I uninstalled Xposed, put FM back to auto, and rebooted. FM did not mount twice; however, when I reinstalled Xposed and rebooted, FM still didn't double mount. Weird. It's almost as if switching it from auto and back fixed it.

SGS2 - JB 4.1.2 GB27

SGS4 - JB 4.2.2 MF9
[Android Software Development] madmack:
Thanks for confirming. These modules are usually the culprit as they often mess with standard Android APIs.
[Android Software Development] egingell:
OK, but why would it not do it again after reinstalling Xposed? The same circumstances doesn't replicate the issue. That can only mean that switching it from auto to something else then switching it back with a reboot in between corrected it and it had nothing to do with Xposed.

SGS2 - JB 4.1.2 GB27

SGS4 - JB 4.2.2 MF9
[Android Software Development] mbze430:
Not using Xposed and has always doubled mount.

Going back to "auto" started to mount double again.

Does switching back to auto still make it double mount?

Can you guys tell me how far apart the two notifications seem to be? Do they seem to appear instantly following each other or is there an idle time in between?

A few seconds.

SGS4 - JB 4.2.2 MF9
[Android Software Development] madmack:
Try this apk guys. See if it helps.

This shouldn't double mount (even if you do somehow get two notifications after a reboot), but the two notifications hopefully are no more with this apk. Please test and report a) how many notifications and b) if two notifications, does the output of "mount" show duplicates?
[Android Software Development] egingell:

Hello Madmack,

Really great app you made.

I use it on my lg G2 with a meenova and a 64gb card. Everything works as expected.

I would really appreciate to see a little option, something tha will do do the same as automount on boot. But when the meenova (or usb otg stick) is plugged. So that when it detects the meenova was plugged it automounts all folder. Will really appreciate that, this will avoid to launch foldermount click mount and then go and launch the game or app.

Thanks again
[Android Software Development] astuermer:
I've some strange issue...

I set the option to disable the destination files.

I've got directory links from internal sd to external sd for "DCIM/Camera" and "Pictures/Instagram".

Usually I see the pictures in the gallery.

But since today (I can't remember an update of FolderMount in PlayStore) I see nothing.

If I disable the checkbox for the destination files, I can see them - but if I take a photo a second drawer "Camera" will created in the gallery.

Physically they're all in the same directory...

Right after boot the message with "connected folders OK" appears - a few seconds later the message "deleting contents from gallery" appears and both folders disappear.

PS: I've already tried FolderMount-2.3.13b.apk - same issue.

Umm :confused:
