It took me almost two days to make this work but it finely works on my Note 2. Here are the steps. They are based on the instructions above but just a bit different.
On the Note2, the internal (built-in) SD card shows up as "sdcard" under root. The external SD card shows up as /storage/extSdCard (you can also navigate to it using this path /mnt/extSdCard).
After the initial installation, there will be three directories under Aura/on your internal SD card: Android, Maps, and Res. There will be also two files there: base-is-ok.txt and database.xml.
1. Make backup copies of database.xml and Android/settings.ini. You will be making changes to both of them.
3. On the external SD card create a directory called Aura (root of the SD card).
2. Move Maps and Res directories to /Aura/ on the external SD card. Leave the Android directory and the two files under Aura on the internal SD card (Android, base-is-ok.txt, and database.xml remain where they are - on the internal SD card).
3. Using Notepad++ or a similar editor, open database.xml on the internal SD card and replace all occurrences of Aura/Maps and Aura/Res with mnt/extSdCard/Aura/Maps and mnt/extSdCard/Aura/Res. No leading /.
4. Using Notepad++, open Android/settings.ini on the internal SD card and change these lines:
ResourcePath=/../Res
MapPath=/../Maps
ContentPath=/../Maps
to
ResourcePath=/../../../extSdCard/Aura/Res
MapPath=/../../../extSdCard/Aura/Maps
ContentPath=/../../../extSdCard/Aura/Maps
