**System**: rooted Samsung Galaxy S10 with Android 10 I have replaced my old external sdcard (128GB) with a new and bigger one (512GB). The old card was automatically mounted to /storage/6639-3031. The new card is mounted to: /storage/9C33-6BBD. Since I have a lot of configured appz that use custom paths pointed to /storage/6639-3031/somesubfolder I would like to change the new id: 9C33-6BBD back to the old one 6639-3031 system wide. Since there is no fstab in Android responsible for this and I cannot find **where this id's are stored in Android**, maybe some experts here can help me? It seems like a simple problem but I did not find the solution yet. Some clues I already found: 1. Android equivalent of /etc/fstab? 2. Remount FUSE partition Once I have found where this external sdcard id is stored, **can I just change the id** (I have **root**)? **Will it be stay changed after reboot**?
