[Q] ZTE Blade E / 956 How to edit the vold.fstab? - Blade General

Hi Guys,
I have read that it is possible to edit the vold.fstab via root explorer or similiar to make the phone think internal memory is sd memory.
To do this people have suggested to swap the line via text editor for other phones.
But on my phone it looks very different, here an example on someone elses phone:
Code:
It looks like they sucessfully made this change on the Rezound (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1383330 by changing the following:
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 37 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount sdcard2 /mnt/sdcard/ext_sd auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc2
to this:
dev_mount sdcard2 /mnt/sdcard/ext_sd 37 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc2
I mirrored this change by making ours:
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 36 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount sdcard2 /mnt/sdcard/ext_sd auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc2
to this:
dev_mount sdcard2 /mnt/sdcard/ext_sd 36 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc2
BUT this is how it looks like on my phone in the vold.fstab file:
Code:
dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host
dev_mount emmc /storage/sdcard1 20 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount emmc /storage/emmc 19 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc0
How can I edit it to swap the internal memory with the sd?

Like this:
Code:
dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host
dev_mount emmc /storage/sdcard0 20 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount emmc /storage/emmc 19 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc0
Nandroid backup first and make sure you haven't moved any apps to the SD card before you make the change.

Using TouchWiz apps in CM7 without messing up your SD access

If you install one of the various TouchWiz ports for MIUI on CyanogenMod, you will end up loosing access to the internal SD in most apps. Here is how to fix it.
Using root explorer (or pulling the file in adb, editing it and pushing it back), open /etc/vold.fstab.
It should look like this:
Code:
## Vold 2.0 Generic fstab
## - San Mehat ([email protected])
##
#######################
## Regular device mount
##
## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>
## label - Label for the volume
## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted
## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.
## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices
######################
# internal sdcard
dev_mount emmc /mnt/emmc 11 /devices/platform/s3c-mshci.0/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0
# external sdcard
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
# USB storage device
dev_mount usbdisk /mnt/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/s3c_otghcd/usb
In this file, do the following edits:

# USB storage device
dev_mount usbdisk /mnt/usbdisk auto /devices/platform/s3c_otghcd/usb
That is it. I still don't understand what in the TouchWiz framework causes this issue, but I don't have the need to dig deeper.

Thanks!
Does this port bring the touching camera to cm7?

ZTE Blade V880 Questions on Gen2 and internal memory

Hi everyone,
My brother still uses his ZTE Blade 1 (The original one with the OLED Display) and is still very happy with it. But he has 2 concerns: 1. The phone got a little bit slower 2. internal is always full
So I checked it out and it still uses a custom rom called Japanese Jellyfish RLS 9 (Android 2.2) and it has Clockworkmod Recovery 2.5.1.8 installed.
My plan was to update to a stable and newer rom and to edit the vold.fstab to swap internal to external (a 16gb sdcard).
But I don't have any clue, it is very hard for me to find the correct resources. So I assume this Blade is still Gen1, what are the best steps to update to Gen2, while maintaining all the Data like whatsapp history and so??
Also which is the most stable, fastest and newest ROM for the Blade? It doesn't need fancy features, it should just be fast so he can keep on using it as his main phone
Also his current fstab looks like this:
