* When using this mod make sure you dont remove the microsd whilst phone is powered up




information :

Iv tested this for a few days iv got a 16gb card in the motorola razr I and it is all working great
i made this mod because as you no /data/media is linked to /sdcard so when you fill up your sdcard it also fill up your data

Filesystem			 Size   Used   Free   Blksize
/dev				   484M	76K   484M   4096
/system				  1G   734M   469M   4096
/cache				 629M	10M   619M   4096

/mnt/obb			   484M	 0K   484M   4096
/mnt/sdcard			 14G	 8G	 6G   32768

Things working are :
(1) Media Transfer Protocol
(2) External SDcard being mounted to /sdcard
(3) /data/media is no longer used as /sdcard
(4) Working after reboot

How Too use :
(1) Extract to desktop
(2) Ensure USB debugging is enabled and phone is connected to pc
(3) run run.bat

new update that dont need init.d but you will need to unlock your bootloader this mod includes

a new boot.img by me to remove data/media and remove /external1 and /mnt/external1

external1 is now mounted to sdcard from init.rc

internal now shows in settings to along with sdcard
