Replace internal memory by SD card

I am new, still have not the mobile, but i wanted to know if to make this, it needs to root before or install some other rom, or it can be done just when take mobile out of the box?
Thanks in advanced

 

set permissions......how to ?

 

I can't replace the file either - it wont allow it.

How is it done?

 

Rooted with VRoot - I get a permission denied message when pasting it in.

 

Hi
I receive my phone yesterday .
I use this article "Xiaomi Hongmi TD + WCDMA Update Guide" and update to miuiandroid_multi_HM2013023_3.11.29_jb-4.2 .
I install Root Browser from store .
And all be fine( 32 gb kingston class 10 )
Thanks a lot

 

Is it can install app on sdcard?

 

thats right, all apps goes to external sdcard by default when install

 

thank you guy cool

 

Hi! This is my first post, and it won't be the last one. Does this "hack" mean that App2SD app is not needed?

Thanks in advance

 

hi,
its safe update with this fstab installed or we must use a backup fstab before update?

Regards

 

Anybody can help how can I revert back? After installing latest weekly build SD is the default phone storage.

 

I once saw an option like 'swap SD' in a touch recovery for Hongmi but currently I am on CWM recovery because with the other the backup was not working.
Anyway not sure if this does the right thing.

I cannot upload the original file as I am also on 3.11.29

But why do you want to revert?

 

hi, there is a way to install always all apps on phone storage (sd card) and not in the internal archive? because big apps like asphalt 8 can't install now

 

I also want to go back. ingbrzy, Please upload the original file.

You mean to store them in your external sd card and not in the phone memory. If so by installing root browser app from play store, that is happening automatically.

 

This option is also available in cwm recovery in partition sd option

 

how to restore it?
help me, please upload the default file
This fact can not install big games

this is vold.fstab file for you please change name by delete .backup first before use it

 

so if we replace this file all apps are going to install sd card?nothing else to do?only replace right?

 

Just did this procedure and didn't made any difference....

 

me too.. the procedure isnt updated, maybe... miui v5 stable latest release

 

For JHBCNAL5.0 used this:

Code:

dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.1/mmc_host
dev_mount sdcard2 /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.1/mmc_host

thanks siba01 of miui.es
