Does anyone know if it is possible to change default storage from the internal sdcard to the external sdcard?  If this is possible, how do you do it?  I recently lost all my internal sdcard files after a bad rom flash and the subsequent use of the razr hd utility to get my phone going again.  Thanks.

Eh, it can be done by editing the vold.fstab file however, I will say, this is NOT for the faint of heart. By doing this improperly can most certainly cause a hard brick. But if done right will indeed swap the way the two SDs are mounted.

Does anyone know the proper modification the cold.fstab needs on the RHD? I did it to my razr912 and loved it.

Running a 'mount' command in a terminal should give you the info you need..

(This is from a bionic by the way)
