Try to use second method first . It is easy and safety method for beginners. See original post for reference.

The tablet used my son for games. More 50 games are installed. Are You sure all games will works on JB? More over, WiFi doesn't work for JB on Advanced. I plan not to upgrade to JB on the tablet, but if I will have a lot of free time then I will try to make new script.

Okay cheers will try later in the week thanks for the help and replies! (at the moment the jellybean for aurora needs a bit more work mainly play store compatibility but cba to sort that out)

Switch sdcard for any devices with CM10 only.
Not tested. For your risk.
Unzip attached file and put it in sdcard.
Run Root Explorer and click on sw_sd_jb.sh, choise Run for request.
Confirm Superuser rights for request.
Reboot

Please note. You need to run the script once only.
The script will add persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=1 string to build.prop. The script will makes backup copy of original build.prop to build.prop.sw.
If You would like to cancel the modification then You need to restore original build.prop manually.

Hi will it work for other devices which arent ainol? like the ramos w30?

[Mickey994]

I've found another way. You can just change one line in build.prop.

FROM

persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=0

TO

persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=1

Worked on Ainol Elf 2 CM 10.1.

Is it humor? See first post on this page and new script for CM10.

Yes. For any devices with СM10. It is new method documented for CM10 only. Try it.

[Ollie17]

So the other script will work on any tablet running ICS and the new one will work on devices running CM10, my jellybean device i dont think is running cm10

[Sergey_F1]

Sorry ollie17. No script for JB. First script for 2.3 and some 4.0x. Second script for CM10 only.

I have finished a script that switches sdcard and TF-card by murphy666's method.
This script will edit file vold.fstab and will transfer installed apps and data to a new place.
It is works fine for any A10 tablets with Android 2.3.4 and 4.0.x (tested).
It is works fine (if it possible) for any device also. I hope .
You can use TF-card with FAT and NTFS format. You can change TF-card in during works.
Now You can install a lot of games with cache to one or two, three, four etc 32GB TF-card and change it for different games.

Please note, You will need clear /mnt/extsd manually after reboot your tablet.

Instalation: Just unzip "switch SDvUe.zip" то any folder and run "switch SDvUe.exe"

New universal version ( April 26, 2012) switch SDvUe.zip

• Works for any device with any Android version (if it possible, have not tested for all devices)
  
• More accurate cancel changes for revert to original works (You can restore original works in any case)

Note: If script don't transfer all data from sdcard to TF-card, please copy it manually after reboot in File Manager. Copy all data from /mnt/extsd to /sdcard and reboot a tablet again.

P.S. It is SFX-arhive in the zip-file. You can open it by winrar and test by antivirus programm.
Sorry for my English.

Old versions (don't use it):

( April 8, 2012). change SDv4e.zip
April 8, 2012 version

• works for Android 2.3.4 and 4.0.x for any A10 tablets.
  
• More accurate copy all data.
  
• Cancel changes for revert to original works

change SD.zip Sorry. This version don't move data and apps. Please download next file.

Try to change

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/sdmmc.0

to

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/virtual/mtd/mtd13/mtdblock13

and

dev_mount localdisk /mnt/internal auto /devices/virtual/mtd/mtd13/mtdblock13

to

dev_mount localdisk /mnt/internal auto /devices/platform/sdmmc.0

Be sure you use UNIX-style text editor.
Set permission for new vold.fstab as rw-r--r-- by Root Explorer or ES Explorer, or use chmod 644 /etc/vold.fstab by Terminal.
Be sure you have backup copy vold.fstab!!!

Does this universal script work with Icecream sandwich LG optimus L7 P700?

I don't know. Try it and inform us.
Usually Icecream has switch for case external and internal card in Settings-Memory. Check it first.

[SlateFan2013]

Hooray, it worked on my Eken (Allwinner) A13! I first had to install the USB driver from the middle of page http://www.androidta...ng-laptop.html. I could still not access the tablet through Windows Explorer, but when I installed your script it worked beautifully! The only problem is that I cannot unmount the SD card from the tablet through Settings. So what one has to do if switching SD cards is turn off the tablet, switch cards, and then turn the tablet on again. Small problem, though! Thank you very much!

[soteris]

hi,
I have ainol mars 7, and my problem is that it does not recognize my internal SD card.
Do you have any idea how can I make the external card being recognized?
Android 4.0.3, kernel 3.0.8 and ICS.f06ref1024.20120619.
I can see the external card when I connect the tablet to my PC, but I can not see the external card when I am using the tablet.
Please help.
I run the script so that my external card to change to internal but it does not work. Any ideas please.
My external card is only recognized as a mass storage device to my PC.
