HOW TO: put external microSD card as default memory in MIUIV7? - Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello, since miui 5 (when we used wsm tools and xextstroage module) that i can't put my external sdcard as default memory to install apps, obbs, etc... there are some custom roms around there that have a built in option in settings to do that ("use external sdcard as default memory").
so the question is: is there any way to do the same at MIUI v7 and put the external sd card as default memory in REDMI NOTE 3G?
thanks all for your attention
best regards

[Q] sd card as default memory

hi guys i have recently bought a 64gb sd card for my gt-i9505. what can i do to make the sd card my external source of storage, so that way everything such as music, pics, apps etc will save to the card by default instead of the internal storage? my phone is also rooted if that helps.
xposed has a module that forces camera app to store everything on external sd.
In the most browsers you can set your download path (set it to /sdcard1/downloads)
If you have the music/video/picture files, just move them to your sd card.
But for Images Dude, i9505 by default stores them to external SD card. But if you see they are going to Internal storage then you can define the path in setting of camera app. for other apps there are also options to save the files on internal storage or external.

Convert my Internal SD CARD, which is shown as external Memory to Internal Memory.

I am using Xolo Q700s Cynogenmod Lollipop
I installed Cynogenmod 12.1 V3 stable. In that they had made inbuilt feature that External SD CARD is loaded as internal memory i.e SDCARD0. I want to chnage that because as I don't have any SD Card I cannot operate my phone. eg xender says sd card disabled and don't open. bluetooth says : transfer unsuccessful as sd card not found to save files. Cannot save books or data from app as download fails as my phone has no external sd card.
I tried changing fstab file but when i reboot the phone it gets back to default settings. I searched a lot but cannot find way to transfer internal sd card from external to internal memory. I can't understand how to change this setting in cynogenmod
Pls Help.
if possible reply at [email protected].
Edit 1 : When I checked fstab file in /system folder, the command was written as in last 2nd line: sdcard1:8 non-removable. What this is.
Pls help me, I cannot use my phone, cannot install and run apps and my phone is of no use to me.

Setting default storage location to SD card AND encrypting SD card

Hi all,
This problem is not specific to the P9 Lite but rather to Nougat in general, but htis is what I have, here I will ask.
Problem:
1) I want to set the default storage location to SD card, so that chrome and all other apps will save downloads to the SD card by default
2) I ABSOLUTELY want the SD card encrypted
3) These 2 options: set default storage location: SD card, and set SD Card passwords seem mutually exclusive. I can either enable one or the other (or, more plainly, encrypting the SD card makes the set default storage location go away from Memory&storage)
Is there a way to set the default storage location manually (using shell, adb, whatever? Is there any pertinent reason why the default storage location cannot be on an encrypted drive? Will doing this dissolve reality as we know it?
PS. Yes, I'd much rather actually use the SD card as adopted storage, unfortunately I read that:
Warning: File-based encryption cannot currently be used together with adoptable storage. On devices using file-based encryption, new storage media (such as an SD card) must be used as traditional storage.

Can't use SD card as adoptable storage on Redmi 7A

I'm having problems trying to get my Redmi 7A to use my sd card as internal storage, but I swear these jerks makes it as hard as possible to do so
My MIUI version is 12.0.1 global, and i only have the 16 GB version. I've tried a bunch of methods to get an sd card as adoptable storage :
- Activity launcher, it just shows a big block of "other" that I can't remove and have to reset my phone
- Some SD card formatting, corrupts the sd card alongside the activity launcher problems
- Tried hidden settings, needs root
- Tried rooting, bricks the phone
- Tried installing a custom ROM, bricks the phone again
If there's any other way to get adoptable storage please let me know. In the future I may just buy a phone from another manufacturer
