EDIT:

Can you download anything from Playstore and use it? If yes, then let's proceed

- Root your device again

- Download Root Browser or ES file explorer from Play store too so you can change permission later

- Operate Root Browser/ES File explorer the go to "ETC folder" and change the permission of that folder to "rwxrwxrwx" now you can transfer files in that folder using WFT

- Download WiFi File Transfer(WFT)

- Operate WFT(I assume you know how to use it), on your PC you will see your device's folders/directories once WTF has been successfully operated.

- Above all the device's folders on your PC you will see on top left PARENT DIRECTORY with a red arrow going up click that maybe once or twice until you reach the root folders( where app folder, etc folder, framework folder etc are)

- Go to SYSTEM folder -----> ETC folder(I believe vold.fstab shoupld be in etc folder go in to that folder)

- Erase the vold.fstab the one that messed up everything

- After erasing the old VOLD.FSTAB on the very right side you will see options like SELECT FILES and SELECT FOLDERS, these options are in grayish boxes, of course choose SELECT FILES then locate your file

- Once file located there will be a new option to download the file then click and wait it shoudn't take that long

- Once done hit refresh

- On your device operate root browser again or the like then locate that VOLD.FSTAB and set permission (rw-r--r--) and for the ETC folder (rwxr-xr-x)

- Reboot device and that should work

BTW, the modified vlod you can still change the script on your device. If you know the original script then change modified to the original one.

Let me know what happened :)
[Other Tools & General Discussion] Karansher:
The permission was already rwxrwxrwx.

It still says Memory Card not Readable.
[Other Tools & General Discussion] :
I see. That gave me a conclusion that not all android are the same. Because mine I can still transfer.

Can you locate the modified vlod? Try to change the script Open as----> Script file---->RB Text Editor. Change it with the original vlod script if you still have it

[Other Tools & General Discussion] :
I also tried to analyze your vold but it looks too complicated to me. The lines are not the one I am expecting. Maybe you can try External 2 Internal from Playstore. I posted how to do it few posts behind. You can also try Directory Bind, you can find it in XDA just type it in search menu.

A few issues with vold.fstab Please Help!

This is the only solution for this i have found which is great! However, I have an issue in that my External SD Card in the directory is ext_card and my internal SD card is sdcard, but it still by default downloads and installs to the internal SD card. That seems an easy fix however i cannot change the permissions on the file vold.fstab (It comes up with error:"changing permissions was not successful. Please note that some file systems do not allow permission changes.") and i'm assuming that is why when i copy vold.fstab to my SD card (ext_card) i cannot see the file there.

Any help on this would be amazing!!! I have been trying to change SD card to default ever since i got the phone 3 months ago!

Try External 2 Internal from playstore if it doesn't work.

This is very risky but if you still want to play around with vold.fstab place the original copy to system/apps folder

[Other Tools & General Discussion] :
You can open the file using a root browser then press the file and choose OPEN AS then choose TEXT FILE. I don't understand why your vold.fstab has only one script for storage. Maybe there is another called vold.fstab nand like the one on Xperia C. Try External 2 Internal from playstore also if this hack doesn't work. I used that app before on my Xperia SOLA and it worked perfectly.

Help with swaping

Hi, I am facing an issue with my device. It has an internal sdcard very small, only 14mb, and I inserted a 8gb external sdcard. Of course, when I try to use Link2SD and to mount the ext3 partition created on my external SD, the script mounting doesn't work because I guess the soft doesn't search on my external but on the internal sdcard.

If I send you my vold.fstab file, could you be king enough to look at it and modify it in order for me to be able to swap the internal and external sd's and to be able to use link2sd to increase my storage?

Thank you in advance, I join my file so that someone can take a look at it.
[Other Tools & General Discussion] isenkSaja:
you forgot 1 VERY IMPORTANT STEP after step 9:

9A. copy all existing /sdcard files and folder to new external SD before reboot

so all previous device settings that already written to internal /sdcard will be move to new external SD

maybe a stupid question...

I'm going to try then swapping internal/external memory by editing the vold file.

I have a phone with only 512mb ROM but 32gb SD card so sounds great.

Stupid question....

Currently all downloads, music, photos etc get saved to the SD card. So if I swap them won't they then get saved to the tiny ROM? In which case I will end up with smaller memory?

Is anybody gonna help me (file was linked in msg), PLEASE???

I even tried that app in Play (I did copy everything over first) and it swaps them, but even though I choose "Boot", it doesn't "stick" when I reboot.

I tried the app after waiting here a while, but no response as I was desperately hoping for!

PLEASE??? ANYONE???

I have 4GB Internal Storage, with more than half that taken by the factory, even after Rooting and stripping out apps!

And now, after only installing the bare essentials (and not even all of those), I'm down to about 200MB!!!

I love this "LG Optimus F6", but it seriously needs more Internal space and I cannot afford to buy another phone! I'm still advertizing my HTC One Dev Edition 64GB, which is only 3 weeks old (Rooted, w/CWM Rec), to get some cash together, so buying another phone is just not in the cards for me right now! I need to get this one going. But like I said, I do really like it a lot, other than the lack of space.

You can see the link to my file in my previous message (maybe 2 msgs back?). If anyone can help me, I'll even buy you a Milky Way! <lol!>

I am not sure if this will work but upon vetting your vlod.fstab it was also confusing. Don't blame me if something went wrong as this procedure is so risky.

Worked with android tablett MK6577, thanks :good:

Beware people, because i had to change TWO scripts to work :

- One was like that " / STORAGE/sdcard0 / to /storage/extternal _SD auto / ................ / STORAGE/sdcard1 / to /storage/extternal _SD auto / " , then i viceversa the "sdcard0 " and the "sdcard1)

- The other was like that : " / MNT/sdcard0 / to /storage/extternal _SD auto / ..... / MNT/sdcard0 / to /storage/extternal _SD auto / ", then i viceversa again the 2 sdcards terms.

It looks like " mnt " is the sdcard target and that the " storage " are the contents of your SD card, then you need to swap the mounting + the CONTENTS for your android really swap your SDcard
[Other Tools & General Discussion] Zeuszoos:
Thank you for trying to help me! :)

I do not understand this though, because there is only one line that is not a "remark" line and that is;

dev_mount external_SD/storage/external_SD auto/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host

So that doesn't match what you're saying, at least as far as I can tell in my ignorance. :)

So what do I do, exactly? Maybe you would please be so kind as to type in what the finished product should look like?

And no, I would not blame you, nor anyone else if there's a problem. I will state publicly that I proceed at my own risk. You're just trying to help out. It's not your fault if it doesn't work out, if you're giving me what you believe the right answer is (and of course, I know that you are).
