Hello I did this a couple months ago and had no problems but recently I rebooted my phone and noticed so far the stock music player and gallery do not recognise any files I have on my SD Card which is now my internal memory. For example the music player doesn't have any of my songs from the SD and if I take a screenshot it does not appear in the gallery app, but if I look for the files I want in my files app on the phone they are there. Strange huh?

Never mind I managed reflash a Stock ROM...Lost a lot of files though :(

Excellent instructions thank you, my sons 18160 now has 32gb internal (shrinking by the minute as he installs games)

One problem though, sometimes (not always) when he phone comes back from standby the sd card is not mounted correctly as there are no files in My Files and apps are unavailable. Have to reboot the phone to get them back.

any ideas?
