data2ext and not enough space to install apps

I've just updated my RCMixHD 3.5++, wiping up everything, to 3.6 without the data++ with data2ext and I was wondering why it seems like I can't install anything when I get to having 342MB of free space, I've been trying like mad wiping up and reflashing.
has anybody an idea on what I can do?
UPDATE: it seems I can push the installations through adb with success...

anybody an idea? could it be the latest Market version breaking something?
it's quite IMPOSSIBLE to get all the APKs I could want from market or anything outside it without having the Market app working...

Is your phone saying it has free space but still cannot install the apps?

i have this same. info screen says i have a lot of space and when i try to install something i become warning screen that say, i don't have enought space

Cm7 partition image??

I reflashed and having 330MB free it says it cannot download, fixing permissions via recovery doesn't do much...

When you installed RCMixHD 3.5 D++ did you install the cm7 hboot which is recommended for this rom? If you did, before you install D2EXT rom, you need to revert your hboot back to Bravo stock for it to work correctly!

When I installed RCMixHD++ I didn't install che cm7 hboot (namely it was said that having s-offed with AlphaRev could be enough), so I think that now that I have the 3.6 without the ++ I could just wipe everything and flash it. Maybe it's just a problem of the missing Vending.apk and patching.

s-off itself doesnt give you anything in terms of space
but it allows you to change your hboot (partiton layout) so you can have more space for apps. so if you didnt do cm7 partitions and installed data++ rom... well the point of data++ roms is to have cm7 partitions layout...

now I don't have the ++ version anymore, so you're missing the point: I now have the 3.6 with data2ext, no ++, no different layout needed, still I can't download apps but I can push them with "adb install"

[Q] Only CM7 on my Desire, no other.. Why?

Hello everybody, i have a question for you all.. My problem: I have a s-off Desire with Alpharev CM7, CWM Recovery 4.0.0.5 and latest radio on it. I have tried to install many, MANY roms, but all, except 2, have the same problem.. After installation from the recovery, i only see the joker face from Alpharev, and nothing more. AceSMod007, RcMixHD, VillainRom and many more.. The only 2 exceptions are MIUI, that comes to its own bootscreen, but looping and no boot, and CyanogenMod, that works great. Why that? I have tried to install Hboot Sense, Hboot stock, but nothing.. Anyone should help me please? Many thanks, regards

have you partioned you sd, if not make an ext partition of 1GB with Gparted

If you are using cm7 hboot try upgrading to cm7r2 hboot from alpharev.nl as the roms mentioned require it.

Yes both with ext3 (by cmw) and ext4.. hboot r2 but others too

Are you doing a full wipe before flashing the rom? This is needed when switching roms.
Only use cm7 hboot if your using cm7 or a rom that was designed to use that hboot. Otherwise stick with stock unless specifically required by the new rom untill you got it working.
If not maybe your recovery is messed up, try a different version.

Back up your sd and use 4EXT recovery to start from strach. Create aligned partitions with this recovery. Mostly, the boot loops happen when hboot is too small for the rom or ext partition(s) is broken or not aligned. Also you can fix your partition with e2fsck.

Try InsertCoin CM7, and do everything what is said above, should be fine then

maybe that is.. I have installed alpharev stock hboot and reflashed original RUU, tomorrow i will try to root my phone again..
PS. with others Alpharev hboot, RUU won't upload, so, if you need to flash a RUU, is important that you install STOCK ALPHABOOT

[Q] Desire only shows HTC logo

I have rooted my Desire and have been running Insertcoin 1.09 and 1.13 for some time. I thought i go to cool sense 3d rom.
I have repartitioned my SD card.
Created an ext3 partition.
flashed de allignment zip to go to ext4.
Wipped alle data
flashed the ROM.
And flashed the stockboot fix (since i am still on stock hboot).
But when i reboot my phone all i see is the green HTC logo and notting happens.
Let it run for 20 minutes. But still notting happens.
Have downloaded the rom several times and tried to install is several times. But still no luck. Can install insertcoin without any problem.
Any idea?

With witch software did you partition your sd card?
Furhtermore, on the offical download side I cannot find a stock hboot fix. Just a cm7 version and an A2SD+ version. The last one is for you, because you are on stock hboot. So I recommend to flash this version without the stock hboot patch.

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A

I have no problems with the insertcoin roms.
But i wanted to test cool3d sense from coolexe. I'm stuck with that rom.

same problem any solution?

Read my post?

First off all, you have to go in to your recovery, wipe all the data, dalvik, sdext, simply everything except your sd card...
Then you flash the allignment zip (to go to ext4).
flash the ROM.
flash the stockboot fix (since you are on stock hboot).
And then reboot...
And let it wait for minimum 10 min to start the first time...

Did exactly that. Even waited for 20 minutes. Don't think i should wait longer.
Will try once more

Try what happens if you flash a2sd+ version and then not the stock hboot fix.

Did you use the stock hboot file after the Rom? You didn't say if you were stock or cm7r2?
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium

yes also did the stock boot converter. still no luck.
I tried aurora (looks a lot like cool sense). And that rom works like a charm.
Nu running happely on android 2.3.5 with sense 3.0.

unfortunatly the rom was unstable, for me any way.
phone was really slow. unable to answer incomming call because of it.
looking for other rom

perhaps going for an ICS ROM.
think that will rock

Think i wil try an ICS ROM.
Altough i like sense. Plain vanilla ICS looks really good to me also

are there better batteries for the desire. Mine seems to be EOL

OK found ICS beta ROM. This looks cool.

Woehoe ICS looks great

wish the desire had a front cam. For face unlock.
A well never tought the old desire would be able to run ICS

Just lookin' for some ROM...

...very stable and with lot of internal memory space.
Just to know...I'm owner of Desire more than year ago. Tried few ROMs (Leedroid, GingerVillain, CyanogenMod, Oxygen, SuperNova). The best for me was Oxygen, but...internal memory was the problem.
Now got SuperNova 2.4.0.1 but...ROM is battery eater! Have to charge 2 times/day...battery was calibrated after flashing, and battery stats was cleared in Recovery
And got 1 bigger problem..everytime after shuting down phone reset to default settings :goingmad:
I like SuperNova 2.4.0.1 but don't know how to resolve problems...
Give me some ROM and make me satisfied

The internal space is the same on all aosp (greater problem on sense roms).
Make an ext partition, take the rom you want and install Link2Sd, so you can move the apps (apk,dalvik and/or libs) to ext.

Did you run full wipe before flashing? Tried if installing a kernel from Droidzone's HP helps to resolve the battery draining issue?

oxygen is stable, internal memory should not be a problem.
have an ext partition as stated above, you can use links2sd or a separate A2SD script.
s-off and change hboot to will also help a lot. if system size is <100MB you can use oxygenR2, otherwise cm7r2 is a safe bet.
i've not used supernova, but battery shouldnt be as bad as you're saying, sounds more like a bad app somewhere

installing another kernel is easy, just flash from recovery like you would a rom. nandroid backup before as usual. may help solve your battery issues.

try betterbatterystats (can find it on xda somewhere), may help you identify if any app is keeping your phone awake
think you need to do some extra reading on what hboots are
you are on stock hboot, you only need to change it depending on your rom requirements, check the supernova thread
for oxygen rom, stock hboot is a large waste of space, as it has a 250MB system partition (most of it empty using oxygen rom), and only ~147MB internal memory, which is why you were running low.
have a look at alpharev to see the partition tables. for instance, cm7r2 has only 145MB system partition, and much larger 288MB internal

Thank you so much
I'll change hboot today..and i'll try with betterbatterystats
Thanks again

[Q] cant install new roms on htc desire

hi i rooted my htc desire about one year ago and i installed a MUI Rom and since then i have not added another rom.
now i am trying to install the new roms cool droid and other but im having problems. i install the rom and it says it has been successful but when i reboot the htc it stays stuck at the htc logo forever. how long should it take. i know a new roms takes about 5-10 mins to start up but it shouldn't take upto an 1hr to start.
i would appreciate some help. thanks, adal316

Did you full wipe before flashing a rom? Did you flash sd-ext dependent roms without having an ext partition?

hi friend. thanks for your reply and help. much appreciated.
ive done the full wipe. but i did not do this '' flash sd-ext dependent roms without having an ext partition? ''
how would i go about do this

You can partition your SD card from Recovery (depends on what type of recovery you use though)
Are you also sure you are using the right hboot?

im using clockworkMod recovery v5.0.2.0
im sorry about this but what do you mean using the right Hboot. its been a very long time since i last installed a ROM and ive forgot quite a bit so really would appreciate your help here.

Hello.
Try to tell us more information, which roms are you trying to install? Besides cool droid. Try to be more specific.
You said, you did a full wipe. That means factory reset + wiping data+wiping dalvik. Correct?
About the HBOOT thing. Try to boot into bootloader(volume down + power button), you can see the HBOOT number and version there.

Im no expert on rooting, but in the recent days ive reflashed lots of differerent roms. many roms did not boot, most likely reason was wrong rom for my phone. (i needed room for HTC Desire "Bravo")
i might be wrong, but it seemed to me that the different roms needs different recovery.
with my current setup im able to run cm but not miui. i was able to boot that one with another recovery that did not work with cyanogenmod.
i currently using CM10.1 VJ Jelly Bean 4.2.1 v4.5.
--Revolutionary-
Bravo PVT4 SHIP S-off
Hboot-6.93.1002
Radio-5.11.05.27
recovery:
CWR v5.8.0.2
hope this helps getting you a working rom.

when i go into bootloader this is what shows up
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.17.05.23
im trying to install sense 4.0 4.1 ROMS. yes when im doing the full wipe im wiping the cache partition and data factory reset then i am installing the new ROM. ROM get successfully installed but when htc desire reboots it stays stuck on the htc logo. please help

That happened to me when using stock hboot, but when i used cm7r2, the rom booted fine. Don't know why.

That's right, try flashing cm7r2 hboot,as abaaaabbbb63 said and I suppose it should be working fine.
Btw. My recommendation is.
Don't bother flashing 4.x.x ROMs for Desire. I don't think any of them are as good (I mean, smooth, without bugs, etc.) as the GB roms. Desire is now an "old" phone, you don't really need 4.x.x, instead of that, try flashing for example MildWild roms, (the one in my signature for example). You can get very nice performance, and a little 4.x.x look, which is probably why you're experimenting with 4.x.x ROMS

hey I had the same problem with my galaxy note then i formatted the SD .Then the problem was solved.

Ok

Parandroid?
U mean paranoidandroid? If so that requires stock hboot. The rom they talking bout is cool droid. And if its the CoolDroid Revolution they talking bout then i wouldnt even bother flashing it, its bad, no offence to the dev but its slow, laggy, full of bugs. If its the old CoolDroid by coolexe then that rom is great all round.

Right

Yes man i didnt read well.
You are right, i will recommend you to full/wipe/ Format microSd-->Again Full/wipe--->Clear/Cache+Dalvik and then flash rom.
OFC Flash stock hboot before all this. :laugh:
