Is there a way to swap internal/external memory with root explorer? Root explorer gives options to grant permissions n rename files n stuff just like other file editing apps. I wonder if anybody figured out how to do this? I no it could be done just don't know how to do it?

i dont think there is a way to do this with root explorer......i have seen Zips/Mods that will do this task - basically use your external card as the internal memory and vise verse. good luck getting it done with Root Explorer, if you do figure that out, ALOT of people will thank you.

i as well dont see a need to do that though......

To open the door on teaching noobs that you don't always need a computer to do certain things to a phone without a pc? Who knows maybe we could get the fear out of sum people n get the flood gate of ideas n testers to try out their ideas?

What you're asking for is to rewrite the default locations for files. I doubt renaming sdcard1 to sdcard0 and vice versa will do this :p

You're asking for a code change. It isn't impossible.

There are ways to use external for almost any app instead of internal.

Modded cameras or stock camera do this.

Most browsers can default to any folder for downloads. Etc...

I see kernels used to do this.Me myself keep it so I could do things manually. But I'm just motivating some people to try new things out n make fresh ideas to keep the ball rolling? I think that there's alot of apps, mods, kernels,n goodies to be merged n come out with Supreme work? Meaning an Ultimate Rom!!!!! This is a community with alot of talented individuals that could make it happen?
