But then I need to root? Why should I when I'm supposed to to do it "out of the box" with Android 2.2?

You can only install apps to the SD card that the developers allow you to. You can check each app manually in the 'Manage Applications' screen or just let Android do it for you when it needs more space.
Dont listen to them they know nothing
You need Android SDK installed at your PC , then install lastest (2.2) version of adb, and also usb drivers (if you dont have), then connect phone in debugging mode, open cmd , in cmd go to "tools" folder where you installed SDK and write command "adb shell pm setinstallLocation 2" (without "")
after this every app will be installed on SD card and also you will be able to transfer apps you have now
And this works for official HTC ROM that was released this weekend - without root?
I don't wanna mess with my guarantee etc..
Don't understand why this isn't set by default, or not available to change this in the settings on the phone?

yes it does, and no it does not require root
now i realize that my "guide" is too complicated, there is better guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7460033
there is some guy talking something about losing waranty.. so be careful
Is there a way of batch-installing apk files that I have on my SD from on the phone itself using an app/tool e.g. Titanium Backup, MyBackup Pro etc? I've read through TiBackup's support but it seems to batch-install only apps that you'd have saved prior. I however have downloaded news apps that I haven't installed before and there're so many of them I don't want to install individually...

Sorry... I have tryed with official froyo without root but with bootloader 0.92 the adb isn't working.
This procedure only works with the froyo when the bootloader is on the 0.8x or later version.
Okay, thanx
So now we have to wait for apps like Spotify, XDA etc to update their software - so we can move apps to SD?
Hope that they will do it quick.
Is there any apps in market that has this option available? Just want to test it

Moving apps to SD card

Just installed both new Leedroid an pinky roms and am having a terrible time with low on space warnings, when I didn't use to with same apps. Two questions
1. I installed with rom manager and ticked the wipe option, is there anything else I need to check or wipe etc
2. Is there a way to move apps to sd where the option doesn't exist in the standard application manager?
Cheers

Format card to fat32 on pc,install Rom manager to desire from market.use partition card tab in Rom manager.
Could tho depend on type of card tho

Cheers for the response, but it would mean wiping card, which is a problem for me. Any other answers?

If you mean it's greyed out, try this solution:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742379&highlight=google+earth
worked flawlessly for me
Looks good, a little drastic though. May give it a try when I get back to a pc in a few days. Was hoping for something I could try in the field. .... literally!

In the thread linked above, there was something to try with the terminal emulator for rooted phones, that might be of use to you?

[Q] can't install apps !

I flashed the lastest cm7 rom
And use the dt app2sd
At the beginning, i was able to restore all apps by titanium
However, when i try to download and install apps from market,
My phone rebooted itself, but it was not a complete reboot,
It rebooted from the opening of my theme i have installed.
Then i tried to install apps from sd card through file manager,
But failed again,when i pressed "install" , it rebooted in the way as said above.
Then i rebooted my phone by myself, it rebooted in a normal way.
but i found that all the apps in sd card were gone.
What's happening?
My sd card is "JT 8 gb' (i bought it in hongkong) ,
It didn't tell me which class is it,
When i use card reader to put things into the card,
it is about 3~4mb/s
Is the above apps installation problem related to my sd card?
I think that you will obliged to do a full wipe and then install Cm7 a second time. If you have still this problem, change your memory card if you have another

i have already do a full wipe before flashing the rom.
And i have been flashing the rom many time and the problem still exist.
Is thiis really the sd card problem or apps problem
You can download a second time the google apps from Cyanogen website. There is maybe a problem with your market.. (I know that Market don't work in the past with some custom roms but I don't remember witch one.. )

but the problem is after i have failed to install apps from market,
i tried to install apps from my sd card but still fail.
You can perhaps use another rom like Leedroid 2.4.1 and try if market and install apps work

[Q] BootManager Support

I want to use both ICS and Gingerbread.. I tried the BootManager app, but it says that the device is not supported and it shows me a screen for manual settings. If someone has used it then please tell the proper way to manually configure it.
PLEASE HELP
THANKS IN ADVANCE
I use boot manager, I had a lot of trouble getting it to work on cm7, it would not write the images to my SD at all, although unsupported they helped me get it setup as there is some coding in the app which would theoretically make it work for us, the only way i could get round the problem was by flashing a sense based Rom on which it worked first time, I now have sense on my phone but can easily switch to oxygen, cm7 or ics which are all installed on my SD card. The only bug I've found now is that after booting into an SD Rom to go back to my main phone Rom I need to reboot into recovery and select advanced restore to restore the boot.img.
Also what version are you using, I'm using the latest one paid for on the market and don't need to enter any settings manually.

My question is if you have messages on one SD card rom. Are those messages still there when you boot into a different rom?
sent from Grey Skull
Yes its just as normal all the data that's written to the SD card is saved to the data image for that Rom.

SD card formatted

I have a huge problem: My One X's SD card got somehow formatted or deleted. Thing is I have no clue of how that happened. I have a custom ROM (Android Revolution 7.0.1) and a custom kernel (faux123) Any ideas how to find out HOW that happened? and what to do to recover the data/prevent this from happening again? I had installed some root apps( a cracked version of Root Toolbox Pro, System Tuner Pro, etc)

Firstly cracking apps and talking about it is not allowed on these forums
Now that's over, connect your phone to a computer and mount the sdcard then use a recovery software recovera (same guys make ccleaner) to scan your card.
You may not recover all data.

What is your phone doing? is it still running? I am asking because I am about to format the sd card in the HOX but its saying its empty but has 14g taken up by files. I cant get into the card to find out what files they are.. Do custom roms take up space on the sd card?
Could the known storage card problem fixed in 1.29.401.11?
I don't know. I switched ROMs, and I have leedroid now. Seems quite stable. Thinking about putting a custom kernel to be able to lower the CPU core voltage. Hopefully it won't heat that much while using it.
