Warning: This will not work on samsung devices !!!!!!!!
Lets get started. In many of our mobile we get a small amount of internal memory like just 2 gb or 4gb this not enough to run large games liike nova 3 or modern combat 4 etc. This tutorial will help you guys to get out of this problem. You need to have HC or Class 10 sd card for this to go without a hitch because your android will be running on this and it has to be fast. Lets start
Its very simple by modifying the code in vold.fstab file which is present in ext folder of Android's system folder.
This file so called vold.fstab has mounting information for the device to mount the SD cards so change the code to swap the SD cards so that ext_card will be mounted as sdcard and sdcard will be mounted as ext_card.
Note: This will work on any Android phone with internal and external SD cards.
Here is the procedure with an example I have done on Xperia J's vold.fstab file.
1. First of all your phone must be ROOTED, If its not then STOP here and get the Root first.
2. Download Root Explorer or any other such explorer which can explore root directory of device.
3. Navigate to system/etc folder mount it as rw(read/write).
4. There you will find vold.fstab file, copy it to your sdcard.
5. Then in your PC open the file in an Text Editor.
6. Find the lines like these,
7. Replace sdcard with ext_card and ext_card with sdcard in these two lines.
8. Again navigate to system/etc change the name of the current vold.fstab file to vold.fstab.old (backup).
9. Paste the new edited vold.fstab file there and long press on it you will get a menu from there change the permissions to "rw_r_ _r_ _" this is important.
10. Reboot the system.
11. If you want to restore changes, delete the edited vold.fstab file and rename the vold.fstab.old file as vold.fstab and reboot.
Congrats now you have large internal memory be careful not to remove the sd card when your device is running this may lead to loss of data.
Please fell free to comment in case if something goes wrong.
