Hi guys,
I have one question:
Why do custom roms have less internal storage free than stock roms ???
for example: - custom rom: 0,92 GB free internal memory
- stock rom: 1,03 GB free internal memory
it's the same base with the same apps.
I know that it isn't a big deal but I would like to know why..
Thanks
The rom lies in the internal storage, so the size of the rom will affect how much space you have left for apps. Most custom roms and stock roms with a few things added and tweaks which makes them slightly larger, resulting in a bit less space.
I'm talking about ca. 100MB less than in stock roms...

hey i wanted to know which type of partition gives maximum space on the phone..
and can u please tell me some good stable ginger sense roms which have ..MAXIMUM PHONE SPACE..
thanks..
It depends on the size of the partition, not the type. Most roms, especially Sense roms require at least 512MB ext2/3/4 (read the requirements). But having 1GB greatly increases your storage. All roms can do this so pick one.
I am runnig cm7.1 .... I was wondering if some one can tell me which room is the smallest and stable and off course the coolest. I just have 81.17 mg left in my internal memory.. i also have a 32gb sd card ... I love cm7 but i have no idea if there is a better and smaller room out there ...thx for you help....
Somenthig close to ics...lol
Try dGB (just klick on my sig).
For nearly unlimited internal memory use a ROM in combination with DATA2SD / DATA2EXT-script.
I believe you have to decide what you think is cool... Check out what other people choose and their motivations in the other thread... here
Personally I left Sense 3.5 projects and went to stable and fast, and installed AN-Droid 2.1.0 data++, that gave me speed, space and (for me) a bug free ROM.
An attic would be very small and cool. hmmph

Does any body know is there is a room for htc desire call skyrider.... and also i saw like a spinning cube when u change screen to screen can any1 tell me how to get that effect....thx so much ... for ur info i am running cm7.1 and go launcher ex.. please help.... I want to make my droid sexier.....lol thx
small and stable ? well you can go past aosop based roms such as oxygen etc , if you need more space for apps you could use droid zones flashable data2sd script .zip , does the job well and since you have a large sd card it should work well etc ,dont forget to partian your sd before flashing this script .
Thank u . I'll Try it
Go for MIUI rom by XJ. Very fast, great support and stable.
Miui is very different and you would want to test before using it daily... questions about ROM's are awkward because ithere is no best rom, its your opinion..
My 2 cents:
what ROM is the best it's hard to say, because it depends on what are you looking for.
Usually when it comes to HTC Desire we have 3 macro-families of ROMS:
1) AOSP ROMS - Like CM7 or Oxygen, they are based on the STANDARD Android OS, so there is NO SENSE interface. They are usually pretty stable and light, they are very small etc. but only you can say if they are cool
2) Gingerbread - Sense 1.9/2.1 ROMS - These ROMS are somewhat similar to the stock one, with a newer version of Android (2.3.x) and a version of Sense which is close to the stock one. Most of them feature scripts like A2SD+ of Data++ for storing applications on the SD card, so that you won't finish the space too soon as it happens with the stock firmware
3) Sense 3/3.5 or ICS4 - Here we go advanced, Android is usually 2.3.5 and you have a SENSE interface taken from the latest HTC devices, if you want my opinion these ROMs are the coolest, but since they are very different from what was planned for the Desire, you can get many different issues, some programs not working as they are intended to and so on. For sure the overall experience is slower, since the CPU and RAM are downsized for such an interface. ICS ROMS are based on the new Android 4 OS, there's no SENSE interface and they are mostly alpha or beta releases, so if you want something stable you better leave them alone
Here's the link to the desire index thread where you can find all the ROMS for your Desire:

Hope I've been useful
If you enjoy cm7, I have an idea for you to get much more space for apps. First of all download GParted and make two partitions first will be about 30GB fat32 primary partition and second will be 2 GB ext4 (primary ofc). Then go to this thread and flash INT2SD script. After that almost all space from your ext4 partition will be free for apps (ext4 partition is recommended to be 1-2 GB).
So much info thx

Well im currently using Jellybean CM 10 and its really fun I love JB but the sad thing is we don't have enough storage for internal memory and AD2SDX does not work on there
is their an alternative ? does it work on CM9 ? to be honest i really want JB ( thats all )
Hi,
Due to annoying low memory issue of the Stock ROM, I am planning to update my desire to custom ROM, and thinking to put a JB rom. So far I have searched and looked through CM10 JB and AOKP JB. can someone point out what is the difference between these two and also if there is any other suggestions for the best stable JB rom that I can install as my first custom ROM.
Also i hope these roms support using the SD-ext / SD card to profile large memory size for installing applications, so I don't run into low memory issues often which is the case now with STOCK ROM.
I've currently rooted the device with CWM recovery, S-ON and stock Hboot .
On sd-card partition, what is the recommended sd-ext size to go for, 1/1.5GB , and why it can't be set to 2G or above, any specific reason. In one of the thread I have read the sd-ext partition size is also linked with internal memory , can someone please explain that.
Thank you for your support.

Those three words don't mingle together.
As you don't seem too tech savvy, and this is your first time with custom rom, I suggest you look further.

Hi,
as far as i know there still not exist a bugfree JB rom for our device [Desire].
You can try a Gb rom. The best one is very relative term. For me the the best one is Cronmod with very good battery life (daily normal use up to 2 days.) huge internal memory (INTEXT+ 1Gb) fast and smoot and so on...
good luck.
Hello!
I use this custom rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1945441
It's very smooth and looks stable + have built in a2sd script + very good support + up do date!
Try it if you want!
You'll be a little disappointed, because JB ROMs tend to be as large as stock HTC Sense, and you will run into space issues even when using some apps-to-sdext scheme.
the only stable JB rom is qiss me rom : http://tw.qiss.mobi/download_software.php?mod=en
others have stability issues mainly with camera and video and not very stable to be used as daily rom
MIUI JB
I can recommend MIUI JB: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1850436
On storage: several apps installed (no games) and 150 MB free (out of 500). 2.91 GB free on USB storage. With A2SD storage should not be an issue.
Very stable and fast (certainly compared to ICS). I don't install Facebook as it seems to slow down all the other apps. Therefore I have installed Facebook Lite, loads very quickly!
I have an issue with mobile data (to be clear: not WiFi) but this can be due to my provider (Belgium).
Hello,
my german HTC Wildfire S A510e is running the latest stock ROM at the moment. Unfortunately I am running out of RAM (only 12 MB left at the moment), even though I am using app2sd and just a few apps.
Therefore I am looking for a good custom ROM which provides more RAM. But it should be 100% bug free as I am depending on my phones features (USB tethering, cam, camcorder, youtube, google play, etc.).
Is such a custom ROM available?

short and simple: No not at this moment
Try removed bloatware Sense 2.1 or sense 3.5 ROM..
O.k. then let's try the 2nd best option. Which custom ROM is the one with the fewest bugs?
@ varun26296: Do you mean the 'CUSTOM SENSE ROMS'?
Depends on what kind of model you have, the 2012 models are a bit different (and less tested)
I also don't think the changes are high you get a bug free camcorder (at least not Cm10)
also most costum roms don't have int2ext included and to have more ram you need this.
Unfortunately the int2ext scripts have the intention not to work the first time (or at least for me)
You should check other users opinion on this cause I am kinda new here and have no experience with older builds
quizmaster123, I have the first Wildfire S from 2011 with hardware version 0128.
If the cam works properly (for pictures), I could accept a non-working camcorder.
Yep!! Try Crossfire's sense ROM..
Thanks for the advice, I will try that.
emmkay
Yep you need to try sense roms for less bugs, especially not the light ones..
best bug free rom

There are a few roms out there which are stable but with a feature or 2 at the most missing.You can usually just install after market apps to make them work normally.
And if you meant more internal memory (instead of more ram), then u can either install the slim builds or use titanium backup or such to remove unnecessary apps.
The best thing to do would be to use int2ext scrips or such.Believe me they work like a charm as long as you check the rom compatibility.

@ criss_007: Yes, I meant internal memory and thanks for summing up different solutions. Is it possible to use int2ext with the original stock ROM?

The best for me. Stock rom Aroma installation with many options and memory extension (with int2ext script).
