Talking [APP] ICS SD Binder

Hi,

Because external SD mount point changed in unofficial ICS builds, I've developed a small app that binds /emmc to /sdcard/external_sd as it was in Gingerbread.

Works on rooted devices only.

Screenshot:


Changelog:

1.0 - initial release
1.1 - autostart at boot time
1.2 -
Quote:
* code cleanup and bug fixes
* selectable bind folder
* option to enable/disable bind at system boot
* option to unmount /emmc at system boot to avoid duplicate files in some programs (gallery etc.)
1.2.1 -
Quote:
* bugfixes
* option to delay binding. It may (or may not ) fix some mount issues
1.2.2 -
Quote:
* hopefully fixed case where new mount point wasn't remounted after connection to PC (needs testing)
1.3 -
Quote:
* added support for Android 3.0+ (Honeycomb)
* selectable original mount point of external SD (/emmc is no longer hardcoded). Useful for devices with different mount points.
1.3.1 - bug fixes
1.3.2 - more bug fixes
1.3.3 -
Quote:
* fixed bug where original mountpoint wasn't correctly unmounted
* code cleanup
1.3.4 - Removed mount/unmount delay options. Delay is now automatic.
1.3.5 - Forced MEDIA SCANNER for new mount point
1.4 - added EXPERIMENTAL fix for broken Usb Mass Storage
1.4.1 - bugfixes
1.4.2 - hopefully fixed service loop and battery drain issue reported by some users
1.4.3 - enhanced compatibility with Android 4.1+ by adding more "original mount point" options
1.4.4 - bug fixes
1.4.5 - CM10 compatible

For now it requires manual start after every reboot.

Works on rooted devices only.

No need for it on stock Samsung ICS. Samsung still binds emmc to /mnt/sdcard/externalsd.

With script manager and a little script to mount the emmc into /external_sd, it can be run automatically after boot...

Anyway thanks
