Hi all, Thanks for reply. We solved the problem by using /system/bin/sdcard executable thanks to cyanogenmod 10.1. At first Vold mount sdcard device to a directory (/mnt/sd64gb) with sdcard_rw permissions. Then sdcard binary runs and mount /mnt/sd64gb to /storage/sdcard0 over fuse. ( https://blog.jplitza.de/2013/07/04/external-sd-card-with-ext4-under-android-cm10-1/ ) We didn't change anything in frameworks/base/..../storage_list.xml and now we have permissionless sdcard directory to share files bt. apps.
Thanks.
