Forgot my phone charger at work last night want able to try anything with it yet...just got it back looking forward to trying this when I get off

 

[Cutecat42]

I hope this gets figured out, lol. I'd rather have 57 GBs of space than 1.12 GBs =P

 

[rbheromax]

lol who wouldnt? Ima talk to one of my buddies who implemented this into one of his roms and see if he can tweak it for us. the reason this isnt working right, is because there isnt a dedicated partition for intsd, its just a folder mounted from /data/media/ and emulated to have a cap of 2 gigs. Im thinking of other phones that also do this so I can possible kang it from them

 

[Orthuvas]

I was looking things up about the way our intsd is and it is weird lol...too bad we can't just change the partitioning a bit and have it's own mount point...

EDIT dude I just realized that you live 45 mins from me...lol maybe I should work hard at getting a physical build machine and just bring it to you one day to push out builds with and test right there.

 

[rbheromax]

wait...i may have something...
in build.prop change "persist.fuse_sdcard = true" to false
this mounts /data/media to /sdcard/
now upon reboot you shouldnt have ANY /sdcard/
dont fret. i just wanna see if that breaks, cause if so i know how to tweak the script

 

[brosenfeld]

I have Link2SD installed on my phone, which didn't help at all.The install_recovery.sh script already had information in it, so I added yours to it above what was already there and I don't believe it worked.

Should I remove all of the Link2SD stuff and reboot?

 

[rbheromax]

Orthuvas: yeah i see that, lol we should do that, get it done quickly in one day

 

[Orthuvas]

Orthuvas: yeah i see that, lol we should do that, get it done quickly in one day

Would in the long run save time... the build system does it need to be 32 or 64 bit or does it not matter?

 

[rbheromax]

HAS TO BE 64 BIT
lol let me tell you...i was one of the idiots who has tried to build on 32 bit
smfh

 

[rbheromax]

try this:

joemossjr is gonna stomp me in the nuts for this

 

[Cutecat42]

Where is build . prop located? By the way, I have three etc folders now. One in device, two in system. The ext2int was in the etc without all the files... I had to manually copy and paste it to the one with all the folders/files.

 

[rbheromax]

a folder called device? where is that?
one in system is ect which is where joemossjr f'd up and etc is the correct one
but the script didnt exec?

Yeah, remove it. None of the apps work (like folder mount, link2sd, etc.) I thought I had found one that did, but it only made it seem like it (external 2 internal SD card).

 

[brosenfeld]

Is the 11extsd2internalsd file supposed to compatible with both fat32 and extfat or should one be removed from the script?

 

[rbheromax]

should be both as its not filesystem dependent
but as long as the running kernel supports the fs it should work (when we fix it)
ik the only fs that should work on my kernel are yaffs/yaffs2 and btrfs and those other exotic types

If you go into es file Explorer, there is sdcard0 for internal storage and extsdcard for extra storage. If you are in sdcard0, and "go up a folder", you get into one called Device, where All the folders are stored. I could do screens shots when I get home if you need me to.

EDIT: The system folder is stored in device.

 

[rbheromax]

oh okay i see, Device is "/" the root dir
so if sdcard0 is internal storage then if i unmount taht and bridge extsdcard to /sdcard/ it will show as /sdcard/ having 64 gigs
but then no internal space will be showed

run "ls -l /" in command line terminal for me and paste the output here

 

[Cutecat42]

I don't have a terminal thingy. Should I get adb, or search for shell terminal on play store?

 

[rbheromax]

either way would work but get the app from store and run it, take screenshot of output
it should show where extsd and sdcard0 is mounting from...

Here is the untouched info:

okay thank you, i can make a script now that should do the trick...

 

[rbheromax]

wait...can you ls /mnt too?

 

[Cutecat42]

wait...can you ls /mnt too?

I tried. It says that nothing is found (when I do "Is -I /" or "Is /mnt". )
