Was just curious if a2sd was supported in 6.1 and if so how do you go about configuring it and partitioning your sd card, what settings to use ect? I have a 32gb card in my evo so I have room to spare new to this rom as I was a long time virusrom user and had never given a2sd much thought.
Also is it really needed what's the perks ect. I hate to sound like such a noob but then again that's what I am.

yeah, apps2sd is supported on ALL 2.2 roms. depends on the app though. you will find it in settings<CyanogenMOD settings. and not sure if you need to partition your sd card....honestly the only way you are going to fill your phones memory is if you download over like 300 apps and they all have HUGE cache sizes.
Ok so I now I know how to turn it on any know if I need to set up a partition or not? I know I'll never fill my phone I just like keeping my system clean. Anyone?

OK, all the threads I've found about this are quite old.
I've been pretty good at managing the storage on my Desire, but now I have this warning permanently on and I can't bin any more apps.
When I list them, all the big ones are on SD, so what is munching my space?
I have my mail set to only carry the last 30 days. At this rate I'll be getting my XDA Serra out of the attic...
Browser cache or contracts if you have a lot of them. If not probably data associated with your apps.

And cache cleaner.
Better still, why not root the phone and install a custom rom as suggested. You can then run everything from a larger internal memory space, meaning a faster phone and no low memory warnings!
Root!
Data2Ext, A2SD+, CM7 H-Boot table, etc.
There are plenty solution for low on memory problem, and they are the main reason why I rooted my phone.
I just tried Data 2 Ext and partitioned my SD card as was told by the RCMixHD ROM thread, but after installing that ROM I get a Low On Space warning! Getting really annoyed with the badly tested roms out there. I mean really, so much for using the data2ext script when it doesn't even work!
I'm back to Redux. Only ROM that's actually STABLE. Too bad not having a HTC Sense keyboard on that rom.

On Sebastian's sense 3.5 Rom, he has an optional XD2SDX add on. Has anyone used, if so what is the general opinion on it?
How does it compare if i move the dalvik to the SD?
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
it supposed to be faster than a2sd cause it didn't move the dalvik to your sd-ext.
i use it and i can see the difference in term of the phone snappy response
I feel it is definitely faster than dalvik-sd, well it feels that way atleast, I feel you don't get the lag. You also get a whole boatload of space to install apps. Now if he would only make it work for other rom's that would be fantastic.

does that mean smaller internal storage? as the cache is not stored on external sd
sibere said:
Moving dk to internal? Hahahaha nothing new here.
We did it a long time ago and got away with it. After a while, you still end-up with a full internal storage, especially with deodexed roms

I have used it and have 400mb free of internal memory and the rom is fast

installed 81 apps and the rom still runs pretty smooth. in my opinion much smoother then with a2sd.

In fact, 6 months ago, we used to have it as standard. We reverted because of the bug.. Nothing new about it.
Searched forum to no avail.
Running Android 4.0.4 and Sense 4.1 on Three UK handset.
Started a few weeks ago, when using Flipboard app, that Sense crashed when closing app. Now it is happening again all apps, Internet, in fact everything.
I had this issue on 1.28 or 1.29, but update fixed it. Now it's back. Be a great help if somebody could shed some light on this.
Thanks.

I am getting the same sort of problems although it isn't crashing all the time. Also on Three UK, standard stock and unrooted 1.29 Do you have lots of apps installed and have very little internal storage free as I think this is causing my problems? I have lots of problems with insufficient memory when trying to install or update apps. I used app2sd to move apps to phone storage but I seem to still always have very little free internal memory but 13gb free on phone storage.
I want to do a complete factory wipe and reinstall / setup apps to see if it resolves it but I think I will wait for JB before doing this due to the hassle and time it will take me.
Thanks

Loads of apps. 8gb Internal left. 1gb other. Done a wipe/reflash. No different.
Can't work out why it's happening. It's the latest in a list. Cannot see myself touching HTC again. My Desire was almost faultless. The One X is great, but only when it fancies. Shame.

next time buy HTC, not branded
You have many running apps and this causes Android to start killing apps when it needs more memory. I guess it's the carrier bloatware. It has nothing to do with Sense "crashing". Try to identify which apps are not needed and disable them if possible.

Hello.
Im using HTC Desire, i really love the phone, but i have problems with it.
i tried like thousands of roms, gingerbread, jelly bean, ics..
and EVERY rom is so fkn bad at perormance.
even doodle jump have low fps on my Desire.
i have other phone, ZTE Blade, it has 600 mhz processor, same resolution as desire and its playing smooth angry birds, hill climb racing and so on.
even little minigames have low fps.
I clocked my desire, min clock was like 500-700 mhz, max 1100 something.
still bad fps.
600 mhz is 2x faster than my 1ghz?
what the hell?

maybe its sd card problem or what?
i went to recovery, partition sd card, then 1gb, swap memory or whatever it was to 0.
apps open very slowly, and when i download from google play and first time open it, it always crashes.
even simple game (happy jump) opens like 10 sec.

I just went to recovery, and then partitioned it there, as i said.
Chosed 1 gb for apps, swap memory 0.
I did something wrong?
I dont really know anything about partitioning
what class is your sdcard? do you use script which transfers data also on sdext? did you try changing sd?

Yes u can download it from the market its the best recovery for the desire, u can use it to partition your SD card, you should make a 1gb ext 4 partition rest fat32, there is a excellent guide on here to show exactly how to do it, read that to make sure you do it properly and make sure you backup all ur data to a computer, just search for the guide

Okay. I flashed ext4.
i partitioned 2gb for apps.
So i flashed rom, went to storage and i saw that internal memory is 148mb.
It shows that my SD Card total space is 6 out of 8.
(i typed this su, a2sd install in terminal)

You won't see your partition but its there doing its job, you can get an app called free space from the market and then you can see your extension :thumbup:

Hmm 2gb ext. Bit much. 1.5gb is usually the most recommended. Anything bigger sometimes can cause issues. If u ask me 1gb is perfect, i mean how many apps u planning on installing? 1000? Haha

Dunno about gaymz
/Okay, i tried to download angry birds space, cool game tho, but it tells me "Sorry, there's not enough space to install this item".
