After installing a couple of games and apps, Android tells you that you are out of storage space. So you head on to ebay and buy the largest sd card your credit card can buy. You slap in your brand new sd card and head on to install more apps, only to find out you still have no storage space left despite moving apps to sd card.
WHAT HAPPENED?
Android tablets in general, has a different directory structure compared to Android phones. Mine has 504MB for apps (in system), 2.67Gb internal storage (sdcard), and mounts external sd cards as (extsd). By default, external sd cards (extsd) are only used for media storage. Unfortunately, apps only recognizes sdcard, so your media files will still need to be transferred to internal storage for it to be played. What's the point?
THIS HACK
This hack will swap the position of the internal sd card to the external one you bought earlier.
1. Using any file manager (Root Explorer), navigate to /etc.
2. Copy vold.fstab to root of your extsd and transfer to pc.
3. Using a text editor (Notepad), edit the following lines:
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/virtual/block/nand1
dev_mount extsd /mnt/extsd auto /devices/platform/sunxi-mmc.1/mm_host /devices/platform/sw_hcd_host0 /devices/platform/sw-ohci.1 /devices/plaform/sw-ohci.2
TO
dev_mount extsd /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/virtual/block/nand1
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/extsd auto /devices/platform/sunxi-mmc.1/mm_host /devices/platform/sw_hcd_host0 /devices/platform/sw-ohci.1 /devices/plaform/sw-ohci.2
4. Save.
5. Copy edited vold.fstab file back to /etc.
6. Reboot. Done!
MAKING LIFE EASIER
Sergey_F1 has made the process easier for novice users by creating a script for Allwinner Tablets in this link.
1. Download the script (updated for all Allwinner devices)
2. Unpack .zip file
3. Connect tablet to pc in usb debugging mode, do not mount sd card!
4. If Windows asks for drivers, install this in 32-bit or 64-bit
5. Run SDvue.exe, Enter.
6. Tablet will reboot. Remove cable.
7. Done!
My eken tablet unmounts the sd card whenever I unmount a flash drive with this script. Any fix so that I wont have to restart my tablet whenever I unmount a flash drive from the usb host port?
ReplyDeleteYou unmount in settings-storage-usbhost1-unmount sdcard. Wait while it unmounts. If it still unmounts sdcard, please use updated shell script in the above link. I have scrutinized the content of Sergey_F1's updated script and it works.
ReplyDelete@anonymous
ReplyDelete..Or examine the contents of your vold.fstab using root explorer and compare to the one I modified above. Usbhost should not be affected in any way.

Check online and so the options are unlimited as you search for gay sizegenetics therapists.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE YOU MAN,THIS HELPED SO MUCH 64GB BABY !!! on my arnova 7h, its a new tablet and even though its got 1ghz a8 cortex proccessor it is extremly powerful and runs all games,the tablet is looked apon as cheap but hell no,its amazing,its only reason why it is cheap was because it only has internal 4gb split into two,so just 2g each as sd...which is shit but now with this 64gb internal its work 200-300 pounds WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO haha love you! <3
ReplyDeleteDoes the tablet need to be rooted in order to accomplish this? I've never rooted and not sure if it's something I want to do at this point. But I'm very aggravated with the fact that my internal is full and I have a 16gb sd card with nothing on it just sitting there being wasted.
ReplyDeleteOk I ended up rooting and tried all of these steps. Something obviously went wrong. When I went into settings- Storage I kept getting the error message "unfortunately, Settings has stopped working". So I went to undo my steps but can't because I can't mount the sd card on the tablet and can't find a copy of the original vold.fstab. So now I'm stuck on what to do next without going into a factory reset/recovery. Any suggestions - It's a coby kyros mid8048

ReplyDeleteAndroid Apps
Hi,
ReplyDeletePlease help! I have an A13 MID tablet that I am trying to swap an external 32GB sdcard for the 2GB internal sdcard. I can’t access the vold.fstab file on the tablet through the tablet explorer so I downloaded another explorer app. I was able to access the file, but everytime I try to copy to my extsd, it says operation failed. I can open the file and there is an edit function where I can edit the file on the tablet without connecting to a pc. When I edited the sdcard and extsd card information as you directed and clicked to save I got a warning message that asked if I wanted to make the change because it could not be undone. I did not make the change and now I am concerned. What if I do this and can’t be back into my tablet? I can email exactly what is in the file, as I can't post in this comment. Please help!!!!1
Another thought, is there any way to remove the partion of the 4GB internal memory that is split into 2GB for device and 2GB for the internal sdcard? 2GB is not really alot of internal storage so I was just wondering.
ReplyDeletethaank youuuuu it worked..... IMPORTANTTT !!!!
ReplyDeletechange /mnt/sdcard to /mnt/extsd and
/mnt/extsd to /mnt/sdcard in vold.fstab
and not which is mentioned above to work !!!!! :D
NikunjSingh you are right!
DeleteIt totally worked, but only after I did what you wrote here to do.
Before you it was also VanJo Pineda who said kinda' the same thing.
Thank you both and to the original poster!
Hi can you give me the instructions how to change my 4gb internal storage for a 32gb on a Arnova 10d G3
ReplyDeleteHi, I have the same tablet and I have not been able to change the internal memory by external 32GB sd. I was wondering if you conguio do. 1000 Greetings and thanks. My email is abel_biker@hotmail.com
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteFor the guys who are stuck in the Android loading screen - this might work.
It worked for my generic A10 Chinese tablet after everything else failed - including resetting to factory settings and recovery from backup (proved to be corrupted)....
Basically you need to start the tablet in download mode and edit the file back to the original content on tablet. Detailed steps below.
Start tablet in Download mode (i.e. start tablet and connect it by USB to a computer - no drivers/software needed). You should be able to see the Android desktop, but sdcard and extsd will not be accessible.
Install Total Commander and Jota text editor (might work with making the changes with only one app, I did it this way).
In Total Commander, go to system files, System\etc.
Edit vold.fstab with Total Commander Editor.
Start Jota. Change setting to show tab characters.
Open vold.fstab and change it back to initial state - bear in mind that the "spaces" between words are actually tab characters. Select all text, copy.
Go back to Total Commander editor. Delete all text in vold.fstab and insert the text copied from Jota. Save (might request changing permissions to file - allow it).
Reboot.
If it still doesn't work, start in download mode as before and in Total Commander search for vold.fstab in the system root. Make sure all files are changed to initial state - if not edit them again.
Thank you for this information, but when I connect to pc via usb I can't see the system files, only the sdcard and extsd. Am I not connecting the right way? I have not tried the switch yet, because right now I can only edit from the tablet, not by copying file and editing on pc as directed above. Also, I am not sure which way to edit the file based on all of the information from everyone that tried. I have an A13-MID chinese tablet.
DeleteThank you for any additional information you may have.
I don't know how to go to download mode my tablet is tm mid710
Deletethankyou. it worked for me now I am having 16gb internal memory.
ReplyDeletethanks for your valuable post.
you have to be ROOTED before you follow the Steps above
ReplyDeleteThat's phenomenal I didn't know about all this until I got to know this post of yours here. Also I am so excited to ask you one thing that I am interested about. Do you have any useful info about how to defend your own posts from being stolen?
ReplyDeleteHi I tried this using my PIPO S1. and it worked for me. the only problem i am facing is that whenever my tablet goes to sleep it says "Storage Unexpectedly Removed" and when I try to open my applications it displays "App isn't installed". Do you guys know how to fix this?
ReplyDeleteI think PIPO S1 got jelly bean android 4.1 with RK3066 Rockchip processor. This procedure is for android 4.0 and allwinner processor tablets. I am extremely sorry i can't help you. But you can edit vold.fstab file if you know how to do that. That is too risky. I edited my vold.fstab file before as mentioned above and my tablet restarts automatically and touch becomes unresponsive. So i advice you to don't do anything to your tablet till there is an article for PIPO S1.
DeleteThank you very much. I used your method and changed extsd to sdcard and sdcard to extsd. My tablet is iberry AX01, allwinner a10 processor. Now i have 16gb for apps and 2gb as extra which was internal before.
ReplyDeletevideocon vt10 Hi i tried ur above method by changing in vold.fstab. But when i restart the tablet it does not load the os. It gets stuck at the "android" logo. Any ideas?

hello admin
Deleteim sameerkhan
i hv hcl me u1 tablet. and it is behaving weird. last time i try to install a iron man 3 game and wont install so i get it at my shop.
(actually it belongs to my kids).. i do all reset. and delete things but nothing is working
i go in recovery and wipe formatt .. but nothing is being deleted.. all thing is as it is.
no new thing is being copy or being deleted in it..
so i open it and try to short it out. rediculously i found one more sd card of 4gb inside tablet chip.
i remove and put it in reader . connect to pc. it shows 1.8gb total and free around 800mb.
i guess rest of part is rom part in sd card bcouse without that memory chip tablet is not booting up. i replace another 4gb and 8gb but nothing working..
and i put back that sandisk 4gb back in hcl chip and it boots up as regular ...
problem is it is not being formated or not being hard reset in recovery.. i use MPTOOL . i updated with it. but nothing working out for new game or installations
for me the only solution left is to replace that 4gb SANDISK sd card which might cotain rom part..
so how to make that vimicro disk to make tab work normaly...
chip is vimicro. wich is said wen i remove internal sd card. vimicro chip not found....
i attach the photo of board with sd card installed..

ReplyDeletehttp://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390592661376#ht_9688wt_995
And I am having the same problem as most people. I cannot overwrite the vold file or delete it or edit. I cannot do anything with since it is a system read only file.
I tried several file managers but none worked.
Also those same line:
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/virtual/block/nand1
dev_mount extsd /mnt/extsd auto /devices/platform/sunxi-mmc.1/mm_host /devices/platform/sw_hcd_host0 /devices/platform/sw-ohci.1 /devices/plaform/sw-ohci.2
that you said to change is not on my vold file. There are 6 that are close enough but I am not sure which one to choose.
Please Help me out this restriction is killing me.

Hey all. My niece got an AGPTek 7" tablet for Christmas and I was pretty ticked off when I found out that App2SD was sending the files to an internal SDcard rather then to the external one.
ReplyDeleteI have edited the file but everytime I try to move it back to the ETC folder on the Tablet I just keep getting an EAccess Error and I can't paste it. I'm guessing the internal storage is read only, and I have no idea how to change that if that is the problem.
Would anyone have any other idea's on how to get apps over to the External SD card?
Any help would be most appreciated.
I am so glad that I found an fascinating and useful blog like yours. Most of the blogs that I've seen over these past few days didn't please me due to a lack of substance. Nonetheless, reading this one of a kind article truly made my day

ReplyDelete* It doesn't matter whether you edit /etc/vold.fstab in the tablet or not, as long as you can save the changes.
* Remember to copy all the files in your old (internal) storage to the new (external) storage so as to see and use the old apps stored in the internal storage.
* Your internal storage will now function as external storage, and vice-versa.
* Comment here if the above text by anonymous also works for you. Change only those highlighted words, and ignore everything else in the /etc/vold.fstab file.

You swap the word after dev_mount. For example, swap the positions of sdcard in the first ine and change it to extsd. The 2nd line change it to sdcard. Don't forget to backup!
