Guest windin101 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Posted November 2, 2011 Guys I have internal modded my Vega to include a USB hub, a 32GB USB thumb drive, a USB to mPcie adapter with a Huawei EM770 card and the internal camera all hooked up and working my issue is the thumb drive is being presented as mnt\usb\usb1 (although under storage in settings it shows up as Dock USB2 for some reason). As I dont want to have to open the tablet every time I want to add something to the drive I would like it to be presented like the SD Card is when connected to a PC as USB mass storage is there any way to do this relatively easily?
Guest windin101 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Posted November 2, 2011 ok so after editing etc\vold.fstab from dev_mount sdard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/sdhci-tegra.3mmc_host/mmc3 to dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/tegra-ehci.2/usb1 the USB drive is now mounted as the SDCARD and can be mounted on a PC (or in my case mac), I now have only 2 problems. The media scanner keeps crashing and whenever I click on storage under settings that crashes as well and I have lost access to my actual SD card slot I tried to create a folder called external_sd on the thumb drive and add dev_mount sdard /mnt/sdcard/external_sd auto /devices/platform/sdhci-tegra.3mmc_host/mmc3 but thats not worked as I thought it would any ideas anybody?
Guest richardmlea Posted November 4, 2011 Report Posted November 4, 2011 I have been using an sd card reader internally as you are but I have been dumping music files on the main sd card (8gig) and then transfering them using ifile manager to the internal sd card (32G). If I had to transfer loads of files I would be a pain but it hasnt been problem so far. However if it can be done like you are thinking it would be useful. :)
Guest windin101 Posted November 4, 2011 Report Posted November 4, 2011 so far I have tried creating a symlink from the sdcard to the internal USB drive but it didn't work, I then tried mounting the internal memory as LUN0 I got access denied as the sdcard is already using LUN0. I think (I may be wrong) the number of LUNs is down to the kernel so I cant just add an additional LUN I think the best I can hope for is to get the USB drive mounted as the SDcard and loose access to the actual SDcard slot which is a shame
