[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chandrus1983:
You can try editing manually the vold.fstab file.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] figo007:
Thanks mate!! One more question, from the Downloaded Apps under the Internal storage, I'm currently left with 802MB used and 1.2GB free, is there anyway I can increase the Downloaded capacity from the current 1.2GB into let said 8GB?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chandrus1983:
That is highly impossible. If you do that it will mess up the system i guess. However there is no such tricks as of now. Maybe in future if we get i will update.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Ritvars:
Hello! I have a GS4 with 32gb sd card which i want to swap with my internal memory. I am a complete noob and this is my first Android device. So, could you explain how to do this part "Make sure you have mounted to R/W before pasting the file"? Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] figo007:
The default internal apps storage for note 1 was set to 2Gb only, if you are able to increase the internal apps storage it will be good.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nokiamodeln91:
The only way to do that may be to manually modify the DATAFS partition using a custom PIT file.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chandrus1983:
here is your answer, but very risky i guess. do you really need it ?? can move apps to sd card.

Mate, this is only for Galaxy Note 1. Do not try on your GS4.

Mounting R/W means giving some kinda permission to copy or paste files into system memory.

In ROOT EXPLORER app you can find it.

Please ask your dev's @ your forum, they will help you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] figo007:
I'm OK as I just got the Nexus 7 2013 version, so most of the games will be put into Nexus 7 for my kids to play around. My current note 1 only installed with apps w/o games, and I'm happy with it right now. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] encik_racun:
So this is to swap internal to be external? Or external to be internal? Coz i prefer external sdcard to be the main storage
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] encik_racun:
No conflict? Its from S2...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Johev:
Hi, I would like to ask if there is the possibility to increase the application partition in the internal memory from 2GB to lets say 4GB or 6GB ( I don't mind formatting the whole internal memory).

I have a 64GB micro sd card, which I use for storage (photos, videos, maps, etc.) and I do not want the two storages swapped, just the internal memory re-partitioned so there would be more space for applications. I hate the insufficient memory warnings I get when trying to update an application.

Please let me know if that would be possible.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] karapoutsoglou:
Link2sd and no storage problem ever. And after updates check in link2sd if the updated app is 'encrypted' in yellow colours. then go to actions, move to phone and then move to sd card. also you should swamp, its better to have a fast 64gb internal class 10 card.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Johev:
Thanks [MENTION=2995056]karapoutsoglou[/MENTION], for your advice. I used to use link2sd in other devices with limited onboard memory like my HTC HD2, nevertheless I find it unjustifiable to have to use it when the internal memory is 16GB, even though 5 is reserved for the OS. I have seen my sister's Galaxy S3 and it shows 10GB available for applications. Why can't we have the same thing? I don't see the point of limiting the application partition to only 2GB, unless it's to make users believe that they need an upgrade (a new phone) when in fact they don't.

As for the swap, I do have a class 10 SanDisk Ultra microSDHC 64GB on the device, however it's nice to have the OS and your storage separated whenever possible. If I can't find a another way I'll have to swap them even though I wanted to avoid that solution at almost all cost.

Thanks once again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chandrus1983:
This is for Galaxy Note 1 ONLY. If you do as i said, your memory card will be internal memory and your internal memory (16gb) will be external.

hope you got what you wanted.

I am still finding an answer that. But no luck. may be impossible.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Johev:
[MENTION=4445655]chandrus1983[/MENTION] thank you for trying, and also for your guide on how to swap ext and int memory. I might be doing that after all :) (as we have no other choice).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] encik_racun:
Just 1 problem i found after swap...camera app sometime just can open but the menu is empty and cant take picture...the workaround is, install 3rd party camera and open it first then open stock camera it will be fine...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chandrus1983:
I had tried some of the tricks to change the system memory(2gb) and swapping with internal memory(16gb), unfortunately didn't work. I didn't wanted to continue i might put my phone into risk. I will keep looking for that think. If i am successful i will update the thread.

I can assure you that the camera issue will be coming with swap. It has nothing to do with system files. all we did is swapping memory internal to external and ext to int.

we did not touch system at all. That must be the issue with your ROM. No one including me has that issue or faced that issue.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lawgone:
Hi there,

Just wanna make sure. Since Carbon ROM is AOSP-based, this method/mod will surely work right? For as long as I flashed the 4.3 version?

Also, do I need to flash first the custom ROM before doing this? Or should I need to do this first on a stock TW ROM?

EDIT: I did flash the 4.3 version of Carbon ROM then did this... voila memory swapped! Thanks Sir.

Question: I was just wondering if this can be combined with the "pit file mod", if that's possible then it would be one hell of an awesome innovation. Any ideas?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jackwu696:
I'm sorry I don't know what vold.fstab file is but the rest I might be able to answer.

1. R/W means rewriteable. It's a mode where you can edit your system file ( replace, delete and such ) you must use/ activate "root explorer" give it superuser/SU permission to be able to access this mode.

2. Permissions is as the name says. Give permission to a file to be able to execute and running. Find the "properties" option (in my case ES explorer, long press the file, choose "properties").

3. Default setting is usually at R or R/O which means read only. When in this mode, you cannot edit or modify your system file to prevent mishaps. :p. Change it to R/W in root explorer and you're good to go.

PLEASE READ related threads to gain knowledge and know the consequences for what you r about to do. Do NOT mess with system files unless you know what you are doing. Good luck

Q Mobile Noir Z3 Memory Swaping

I am using a Qmobile Noir Z3

It has a 16Gb Internal Memory but upto 5 GB for OS and Apps, remaining for data.

I thought to swap the memory from external to internal so I searched different websites for techniques,

First I rooted my device and then found a way to swap the memory by method no 1 which I thought was very easy:

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2246909

I downloaded the rar file from the thread and extract it as shown, I wanted to extract the file in the folder system/etc but there was already a file named as exactly as i was copying whcih was vold.fstab, so I deleted the current file and extraxted the new one from the rar. when I restarted and checked my memory from storage settings, now It shows 0 (zero) memory for my data on my phone. I restarted so many times but its not working now.

I also did factory reset but it didnt come back

Any one please help me find the original vold.fstab file for my device as it was before.....Thank you

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] eclyptos:
Hey, I was wondering, when you swap the memory, the sd card can be in his own system partition like exFat, Fat32? or you have to have ext4 Partition? Like link2sd?

Because for what I know ext4 partition are much more stable and performed.

Also on high-end devices, which many today still run Android 4.3, you will just loose performance because of the low transfer rate between Phone and SD Card.

Anybody saw any difference?

ntabikha & iggy - mine doesn't have that bulky external battery thing ... :?

The guys at Pocket PC Techs did the upgrade 8) - physically added another 32 Mb of SD RAM to the motherboard and then changed out the internal battery for a bigger better more efficient one. So, I have 64Mb of usable RAM, same 32 Mb ROM + a 1800 mAh battery (stock battery is a 1500 mAh with less efficient charging). I go about 1.5-2 days between charges depending on my usage habits.

So to the naked eye mine appears stock, but is anything but. Check out the upgrades here: http://www.pocketpctechs.com/Services.asp?type=TMOB
