I am shocked that i cant seem to find any solution to this, even more so i am shocked that i haven't come across users that are even looking for a solution to this isssue. Anyways here is goes..
Our phones have an internal and external sd card. That great! actually it blows in my mind. I wish we didnt have internal sd because it just screws everything up when you are trying to do what i want to do. I have a 32gb external sd that i want to use as the main storage for nandroids, downloads, ti backups, and all or atleast most application external data. I have to keep deleting backups one after another because i my internal sd card is always full, and when it comes to my nandroids its a pain to have to move them from internal to external sd and then back when i want to restore (which it also causes issues for me and i get a md5 mismatch in cwm). There has got to be a way to use your exteral sd card as the main storage, CM7 has a solutions to this but it only works at boot so it doesnt mount the external as internal within recovery, which i can live with because cwmr 5.0.2.7 allows you to backup and restore to either the internal or external. The issue with this is no other rom does this so if i am on another rom besides cm7 then and i want to restore a backup that i did on my external sd with 5.0.2.7, i have to move the nandroid from external to internal to do so, and when you are moving it from one to the other on your phone it takes forever because it is usually 700+mb.
This whole internal sd and external sd is really pissing me off. This phone (which i truly love and is by far the best phone on my market) and my other phone, droid bionic are the only two phones that i have every owned that have had this issue. All other phones of mine (HTC) have never had an internal sd card.
If someone can come up with a fix or point me to a fix that will accomplish what i am looking for I would quickly pay (or donate) $30.00. Its not a lot of money but its enough to buy some accessories and for me, paying $30 is worth it. Again i need a fix that will work in recovery(cmr 5.0.2.7 does this) and at boot.
Edit. Nevermind, it seems the only way to fix this issue the way i need it is if we get the new cwm 5.0.2.7 recovery. Just waiting on entropy to try and get this in his kernal. Once he does that i will be donating again to him instead
Pretty simple, in recovery.fstab swap what internal and external point to, compile, flash, FIXED.
can you provide some instructions? What does this do exactly.
Thanks
Google "fstab" and "linux mounts" and you'll find an answer... but be careful because as there might be unexpected consequences...

I'm not an expert, but when I first ran CWM the entire phone storage was unmounted and just internal storage. I had to mount it SD. Couldn't you just go to cwm and reverse that?

Well I dont know nearly as much as you, so googling those terms does not help. I appreciate the gesture but i am going to need some more help than that unfortunately.
Does anyone know the block id for sd-external?
did you take a look into fstab? it should be pretty apparent from there. if not, then just issue mount command from console - it prints out all currently mounted devices, including sdcard.
don't forget to send DG $30 for the hint

recovery.fstab? correct not vold.fstab, right? And what is the external sd mount id?
I just want to be clear that i want it to mount the external sd as internatal in recovery not just at boot so vold.fstab will not do that

I just upgraded to Bell's 2.2.2 OTA and now I need to root but I am not sure how... Gingerbreak requires a formatted SD card and i only have one and its in the atrix and has tons of stuff on it!
Any root method where I dont have to erase the SD?
Why not just back up all your files to your pc? That way you won't lose any data. I always back my files up anyway just in case.

Sorry to bring this painful memory up, but Gingerbreak needed a formatted SD card?! I've used it in the past with my SD card (both internal and external) filled with all sorts of stuff, and it still work (albeit it was a bit slower and took a few tries). And rule of thumb for anything relating to upgrading or the internal/external SD slots: BACK UP. It's so vital to do this, cause in the case that something happens, poof. =[ But good luck with the rooting!

I'm wondering if anyone can walk me through completely cleaning out my phone before re-flashing Crazy 8. I read somewhere that you can format your internal and external sd cards to really clean things up. I've been having major slow downs and fc's and I want to try this to see if it helps. MY question is, do you format these cards and then go back to stock with ODIN or the other way around? Any tips would be most appreciated.
move critical stuff to pc
format internal/external
power down
odin to jfd
use the update.zip in my noob guide that lets you boot straight to cwr
flash rom
move any critical items back (ie titanium backup folder if you want your apps)

Matty: I think you unmount the cards and then format them through the phone but I'll find out more later when I try it out.
You can format your internal/external SD card using either your phone or the computer. However, I think you should better use your phone to avoid any incompatibility issue.

Only tested on stock rooted
tho the topic would indicate a general thread topic and not a development topic i honestly believes it goes here as i am taking it upon myself to figure this out or attempt to. if CM7 allows you to change default storage location to either internal or external storage then i believe it should be easy to figure out how to do it with any rom that is rooted. tho i may be completely wrong on that.
what i believe to be needing is the void.fstab file from the etc folder and the build prop from a cm7 user. basically if somebody could give me a copy of those files when they have the settings in cm7 set to internal and then when they have it set to external i may be able to figure out what needs changed. i remember reading in the cm9 thread that somebody changed line of code in those files to switch them around but i need to compare them. so if somebody could get me those files i would greatly appreciate it and will try to figure this out
Number 1 reason why i want this ability is my android folder for app/game data alone is 8.5gb. my gameloft one is like 5gb. would be a huge PITA to have to move data around all the time.
thanks
If u can figure this out that would be great..I tried changing it around myself but cm9 isn't reading my internal storage no matter what I change around lol there has to be a solution

Had to post links to dropbox since im on my phone and cant upload files.
This is only done on stock and this change will only read and mount your external sd card as your default card and internal wont be read at all. You will also get and error on boot about not being able to read something.
Any ideas or direction on how to get internal storage to be read would be great.
# external sd card
dev_mount sdcard_ext /mnt/sdcard-ext:none:lun1 auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc3 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
# internal eMMC
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 18 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc0
I think it should look like this in void.fstab hope it helps.

Yeah that looks like what it originally should be. I'm trying to get then to swap. A guy named shiffy on here has sent me a pm saying he was able to swap memory around. Was able to get phone to read the actual sd card as sd card but can't get internal memory to read at all as the sd card ext. Thinking it may have to do with being on the latest sbf.

My problem is the same except I am not hooked up to USB. The issue came when I installed CM7DX2 RC0. See below what happened.
Stock settings
/mnt/sdcard (this was the internal card)
/mnt/sdcard-ext (this was the external card)
After CM7
/mnt/sdcard (this is now the external card)
/mnt/sdcard-ext (it shows up but there is nothing there)
/mnt/emmc (this is the internal card and show 0 bytes free; it has my old files but nothing can be added to it; I assume it is read only at this point)
Is there any way to make the internal read/write again or will I have to SBF? I don't get what happened. I love CM7 except for this issue. Thanks.

Emmc is supposed to be a external card. Its a flip flop. So if emmc is bad its ur removable SD. Get a new one.

Moved to proper forum.
emmc is what was my internal SD card; all the files from it are still there exactly as they were before the CM7 installation. I already replaced the external card shortly before installing CM7 and it is working flawlessly as sdcard (previously sdcard-ext before installing CM7). That is why I was asking. I was hoping CM7 was the cause of the issue as it was ok at the SBF before flashing to CM7. Is there a specific way to format the internal SD card? Thanks.

If you are planning on staying on CM7, or any other ROM that uses the flip flop mod, and you are wanting to get everything straightened out, I would recommend backing up your app data with Titanium Backup. Back up your External SD card to your computer (If you have anything else from your INTERNAL card you want to save like pictures, music, videos, etc., back them up to your computer as well). Then format both. You can erase both cards in settings/storage. After you format your internal, the apps you have on your phone already should recreate the folders they need. But wont restore your app data. Thats where you use Titanium Backup to restore the data. Then just move everything back from your computer to your external or internal depending on where you want it. You should be good then.
Thanks jsgraphicart for the advice. I will look at this and attempt the repair. However I have a question first. It seems to me that /mnt/emmc should be showing up as /mnt/sdcard-ext if the cards were truly swapped. However in File Expert with root exploring turned on there is nothing there. It seems to me a symbolic link might need to be reestablished. I think the cards themselves are fine. I was hoping someone might have some ideas how to get /mnt/emmc to point to /mnt/sdcard-ext so the swap is complete. Does anyone have some clues to offer to get things in their proper order? I think I will go read the article about swapping the cards to see if I can find the answer myself but if anyone has an answer I would love to hear from you. Thanks.

I think the emmc is an AOSP thing. I'm not 100% though. I dont know the technical answer to that. The emmc IS your external card and works the same. If you use it long enough, you do get used to it. I think it confused a lot of us when we flashed CM7 for the first time.

Link2sd plus will do that for you. It has an option of placing the application and/or its data on the sd. It's a paid app, but only $2 - well worth it imo.

OK, I should have been clearer. This is more complex than what I first described. In order to use Link2SD plus optimally, you will need to perform a few steps. You can find the reasoning behind them in the Link2SD FAQ (although a bit outdated). Here are the steps you should perform:
1. Backup your SD. This is a means of precaution only.
2. Reformat your SD drive to add a second ext3/ext4 partition (no need to wipe the data or anything like that). Its size should be about 10% of the total SD size. You can do it with MiniTool Partition Wizard. Make sure that the new partition is primary and not logical.
3. Reinstall Link2SD plus in order for it to recognize the new SD layout. May need to reboot here.
4. From Link2SD plus, choose your game. Tick all Link options, especially the link data option.
This will fool the game to think that its data is located on the internal storage, but it's really on the SD. In this case, the 3GB data should now be downloaded to SD.

No problem mate. It's best for you to try all the methods posted here by other people before trying Link2SD plus. If they work, it'll save you much hassle. I've tried to think of a guide for you, and it figured to me that the only way for it to work is if you either get an SD card reader or alternatively another device that allows you to mount the SD in a USB MSC (mass storage class) mode, as AFAIK LG stock devices only allow MTP mode, something that won't allow you to format a partition using your PC.

Yes, CWM is Clockwork Mod - Android's recovery program. Reason I asked is that it has a built-in ability to partition your SD, something that'll ease things up.
And don't feel bad about not partitioning theSD - this shouldn't be done in the vast majority of the cases, only in when you wanna use apps like Link2SD or others that need to push Android to the limit...
ok ill look into that today and get back at you also is it possible to sideload an app directly on to your external sd? could that work and let me side step alot of trouble thanks

Regarding Link2SD plus guide, you'll need one of the following two:
1. CWM on your device
2. A card reader, or another phone that allows you to mount the SD as MSC (like Disk On Key - in windows it'll show as an additional drive)

yeah i dont have a card reader and i dont know anybody that has one neither i wish i would did more research before i made the leap from ios to android i thought android was more accessible open and easier to deal with i assumed that since you had an sd card slot having a ton of internal space wasn't critical like it is on ios because you could buy memory i had no clue how wrong i was and since i got this phone and ive noticed something odd gl to sd seems to be doing what i want but only for on app assassins creed black flags companion app runs fine when i use gl to sd the additional data downloaded on my external sd and when i try to run the app without gl to sd it tries to download the additional files on my internal sd are you familiar with that app and how to get it to work with other apps like gangstar vegas? thanks man for your and everybody eles help
