Hello,
Yesterday, I flashed 4.4.2 stock rom on my S4 i9500 through Odin. I was also successful in rooting it. then after installing titanium backup I uninstalled all the knox applications. now there were no knox warnings poping up all rooted apps were working good. Then I installed most essential root app in my phone called "foldermount". You know being a s4 owner how easy it makes your life when you can transfer all big games to the sd card and no internal memory full issue.
Now the bad part of story starts.When I opened the Foldermount it showed me an error message that To fix the error click okay and reboot the device. After rebooting all apps of phone like gallery, camera, Shealth, filemanager,music etc. Either stopped working or started showing the message that you dont have any internal memory or external sdcard on your device. In settings>storage, there it also said that 0 mb internal memory 0mb external memory. I also tried connecting my s4 to pc with usb storage option. It showed there too that internal/sdcard has total 0 memory.
So basically foldermount had screwed my phones memory. I think it had messed up the partition table of my phone. After that I reflashed my 4.4.2 and tried installing latest version of fouldermount and the whole thing happened again.
Now I have again reflashed the 4.4.2 rom. I think in 4.4.2 samsung has changed some stuff and foldermount is no longer compatible. Now I have also come to know that You cant downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3. :/
Please someone tell me alternative to Foldermount which is working on 4.4.2.
I would also like to know why foldermount no longer works on 4.4.2? is it only samsung's 4.4.2 rom or it also doesnt work on other 4.4.2 based roms.
Thanks!

4.4.2 has sd card write problem. There is a fix for this problem on the forum n then use Foldermount or may be foldermount isnt compatible with 4.4.2. They ll release a compatibility update for it. I havent rooted yet n 8.41 gb is enough as internal!

There is a easy fix for kk4.4 sd write protection issue by adding a simple line into a system file. Just search for it in the forum.

Thank you guys for replying.
I just checked the changelog of Foldermount and found this
v2.6.4
-Updated Portuguese (new translator: extream87), Polish, Latvian, German and Finnish locales. Thank you volunteers!
-All patching menus are scrollable. This should help some users that are not able to see the bottom buttons correctly in these dialogs.
-Fix a rare case where some S4/Note 3 users that update from 4.3 to 4.4 and patch the system using FolderMount leads to the disappearance of the internal/external sdcards.

I think now foldermount will work fine on S4/Note 3. If it still doesnt work then I will try fixing "write_external_storage" thing.
damn...
After using the forums for a long time without registering, just did to point out I had the same problems. Read a lot before flashing 4.2.2, all went well until installing Foldermount... wish I read this one before installing it. SD Card looks empty on phone, but fine on computer, Play Store, S Health, Story Album kept crashing. Ended up doing a factory reset I didn't need, and flashing it all over again.
Well, how can i set up my 64 Gb Samsung sd card as internal storage?
Think you'd have to flash Xposed, there is no stock option
Well, I saw somewhere that samsung did turn off the function but only by hiding it and that you can activate it anyways

Hi,
A couple of questions:
1. is there any way to install the openGapps? I get insufficient storage with the Nano version.
2. I set my formated my SD card as internal storage. but now the storage setting crashes and I don't have any extra space. (I reflashed the rom and nothing) when the sd is out the storage setting works fine.
everything else is great. But I really need to sync my google contacts, email and calendar ...
thank you
I went with pico and it worked fine ... just had to install other apps from play store ...
all is good now, except I still don't know if the SD is being used or not ... (Storage setting still crashing)
I have a 16GB T580 I purchased at BJs. I bought a 128 GB mSD card and used the adb hack to set it up split 40/60 internal/external memory. Doing this brought the device from unusable to awesome. I can now install pretty much everything I need, and can still upload download music and pics as before. Speed is unaffected. Then two days later the Nougat upgrade dropped.
I saw somebody say they upgraded with a similar config and everything is still ok? Do I need to do anything special? It would be a major pain to have to delete everything, revert to internal, update, then apply the hack again and reinstall it all. I hope this is the case.

Hi, is there a specific ROM I can use, which enables me to use SD card as internal memory on my Samsung J530f on Android 9.0 preferably? I tried just one custom ROM and rooted the phone with Magix and and downloaded Root Essentials as well, but this is not working. I am looking for a working solution, not for a guess, how it might work... I tried the "maybe" options, now looking for a verified solution... Thanks!

I don't prefer you to do that
Bc which speed your internal storage has is more than any sd card that you use!
This way works for older j5(such j5 2015 that have 15mb/s but i buy sd card with 35mb/s and set it as internal)you can measure your speed by specific apps
And about your problem
Most of aosp pie and oreo roms have this by default,just Google it
or if you use tw rom you can ask your dev to provide this for you(sorry l have different model so i don't have that)
Well
Speed is not an issue. Problem is, that currently i have to move every application manually to sd card, which after update moves back to internal memory. I leave for a week to mountains and am not on wifi and after my return 20apps needs to be updated. I update one, than jave to move it to sdcard as there is no space to upgrade the rest. Now imagine updating 20apps with manual intervention every fcking day. So of dourse i rather sacrifice speed and invest in a fast sd card than manually update very app every time. I was expecting someone to let me know a difect working rom, instead of googling, as on xda i was not able to find a suitable one.

Every Oreo and pie rom has it. If you want a 7.1.1 stock rom port there is also an adoptable storage patch enabler zip.
So basically any rom from nougat upwards has it.
