Problwem with Runny Rom - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone!
I don't have acces to the dev. forum so i describe my problem right here.
When i try to install any of runny roms (no mather which version)i allways have a problem. After installation, when i go to market to download my apps, I get a message about a not enough space on my phone interial memory. I have cm7r2 hboot, a lot of free space on device. What can i do?
please help!

Market cache is too small, try moving it to ext.

Yep, your cache-partition is too small. Here is the solution:

Although it is thread from MIUI, but it will work for other ROMs as well.

Another solution is to simply download the app marketfix (I can't post links yet): play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.felipearon.marketfix&hl=da
I too had problems downloading World of Goo because of the cache-size.

[Q] Leedroid problem. Need help!

Apparently I can't post this in the development forums cause I have less than 10 posts
Anyways, I've S-offed my desire, partitioned my SD card, flashed the newest Leedroid Sense Rom, and after installing Handscent (the only app I've installed so far) I am un-able to install anything else as my phone gives me an out of space error. This Rom came with a whole bunch of apps I didn't use before (switched from Oxygen because I wanted the new sense)
How can I move all those apps to the SD card?
Also, anyone know where I can get the Sense 3.0 dock with the ring? I love that!
Thank you!
P.S Please don't flog me! lol. I did so much reading my eyes are square now and it's possible I may have missed this being asked and answered

don't worry there is a lot to read, can be very
1. Have you tried clearing the cache and data of Market in Manage Applications? I've found sometimes deleting data of 'Download Manager' and 'Updater' works too, basically anything linked with market. Keep trying until the Market decides to download again.
2. Apps should be installed to the SD card by default if you partitioned your card directly. Use Quick System Info PRO (free) to check, assuming your market is working by then, it'll show how much space is being used on each partition. Keep the apps "on the phone", no need to manually "move to SD", as they are fooled into being installed on the ext partition. App data will still take up internal memory, the FAQ linked below explains it very well.
3. Install the Sense 3.0 addon pack on the first page, flash via recovery. I've not tried it myself as I read that it can cause the phone to be very laggy.
Hope this helps. There's a very good FAQ and mod thread linked on every page of the Leedroid thread if you need more help, i've found them the most useful.

[Q] Virtuous Unity 1.31 problem with ram management.

I am a new user so if this is answered sorry. I have searched but not got results that satisfy me about this.
So I am using Unity 1.31 on my Desire Z. I was fed up with stock rom (GB) sense ui resetting etc and rooted and installed unity for my first custom rom.
One thing is a problem. Ram management is pretty harsh. I have Juice Defender and Swipe Pad, 3G Watchdog apps which I dont want to be closed but if I do anything a little bit heavy these apps close. These 3 apps dance around imy status bar all the time. I am getting they are always opening and closing becasue of low ram but I have never seen this bad on stock 2.2 or 2.3.
1. Is there a fix for this? Like keeping some apps protected as much as possible?
2. Does Beta 2.33 of this Unity rom fixed it?
3. Should I change my rom preference to no-sense roms?
If I cant fix this really bad issue Unity is a no go.
I am waiting for you experienced users of Desire Z. I love it but I need a nice stable rom.

Check the link in my signature for vituous unity mods. There you can download the ram cleaner and htc setup remover .zip files. Just copy them to your phone and flash them. This will generate alot of more free ram for you. Also download an app called autokiller memory optimizer. Best way to monitor and control your free ram. Hope this helps

Thanks on the info. But how will I install them? from clockwork boot?
I am very new on this. So a little more help would be great.
I read here somewhere that even sms app can be killed and you cant see the sms that you receive.
Is there any document or thread for this rom cleaner so I can understand more what and how it does?

yes boot into clockwork recovery. but for the ram cleaner, you need to wipe your phone first so make a backup of ur phone with titanium backup first. then boot into clockwork recovery and do a wipe. then flash virtuous unity BUT DO NOT REBOOT, after flash the ram cleaner. then reboot your phone and set it up and restore your data. finally boot back into cwm and flash the htc setup remover.
Thank you I didnt realise that I have to reflash the rom.

WF Market problem

Do you have an external partition on your sdcard??
If not you should really learn to read the first post of threads thoroughly before flashing anything.

yes i do, i actually did the fixes that were included in rempuzzle thread in the first place after flashing the rom
edit: nevermind, i changed the rom.. thanks for the response though

Wi-Fi not working
Hello and thanks again for keeping our great ancient device alive I have, however, encountered one very unfortunate problem with the wi-fi, which connects to the wi-fi network but then there's no internet connection. I tried updating the radio to the newest version found here, I have tried installing Wifi Fixer and re-installing the ROM a couple times. On previous ROMs (stock CM 7.2 and Andromadus Mimicry (CM9.1)), the wi-fi worked just fine. Also the wi-fi router provides connection to other devices seamlessly. Do you have any idea where the problem might be?
EDIT: OK, to make sure, I flashed CM 7.2 again (both stable and latest nightly), only to find out that on this particular wi-fi network, internet connection doesn't work for my Desire Z so something's probably wrong with the router TP-Link TL-WR740N.
EDIT2: Connectify solved the problem so there's definitely something wrong with the router, even though it has the latest firmware. (And the strangest thing is that Connectify worked fine while sharing internet connection from the same router that didn't work with my Desire Z directly... WTF? )
Slow response and out of space (AlterNdromadus CM10.1)
Hi, I'm new to custom ROMs, and I'm certainly no developer, but I have been successfully running this one on my HTC Desire Z for about a month. It's been more or less fine but I have two issues:
1. My phone seems to be getting slower and slower to respond. Is that just because I'm an app addict and I have installed too much crap?
2. I'm getting the "out of space" error when I try to install or update apps, even though according to the DiskUsage app I'm using I have 110 MB free on internal storage. I have seen the fix of deleting the logs in /data/logs, but this directory does not exist on my phone! Where else should I look for old logs? What else can I try?

I use an appcache cleaner ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.infolife.cache ) and also you might think about moving apps to the sdcard.

Well, I've tried both, and I currently have 126.9mb free in internal storage and 128.7mb free on the SD card. But I still get an "insufficient space" error when trying to update apps.
What is the underlying source of this problem? And what can I do about it? It seems odd that I can't update a 50kb app when I have 126mb free.
PS: apologies if this got posted twice; I thought I responded yesterday but I don't see the other post.

try clearing the data of the play store and see if that helps.
Rats, still getting the error.
Slide unlock with pattern security
Hello is there a way how to disable slide shotcuts when I wake up my phone and skip to pattern entry? I don't want to use those shortcuts and it is just an annoyence :/

sorry out of thoughts....maybe a ROM reload.
I get that insufficient space error quite a bit - here are some things to try:
Uninstall updates for the Google Play Store through "Settings" --> "Apps" --> "All." I've had better luck with earlier versions of the Play Store, though very recent builds seem to be improving WRT this behavior.
I usually try to keep 140-180 MB free, which will be enough for most programs to update. Problematic ones are Swype, Swiftkey, Dropbox, and OneNote, which can be uninstalled and reinstalled with the later version if necessary.
I move plenty of stuff to SD with "DS app2SD Lite" and uninstall things like Talkback with "System Apps Remover (Root)." I also run "lagfix (fstrim) free" ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grilledmonkey.lagfix&hl=en ) every now and again, which might help further.
As far as slowness - you can try tips mentioned a few pages back in the ROM threads for setting up internal swap with Turbo Boost ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145133 ) and misc scripts like Supercharger v6 which is also included in the more comprehensive "PurePerformance" mod ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360670 ).
Some critical opinions on Supercharger: https://plus.google.com/+AndrewDodd/posts/3AaCammc2Jw
In any case, with a fast swap set up with Turbo Boost, you can reduce or disable ZRam entirely.

I also use Amazon services & appstore, which to my regret runs in the background always and won't hibernate. Appstore / Amazon store app / Amazon Music all churning away, sucking up my precious megs and mips and is the cause for some of my own hiccups.
I also occasionally boot to 4ext Recovery and run fsck over adb shell to try to fix filesystem errors for each block device that never seem to stop cropping up. I actually have to reformat cache as ext2, then ext4 again to clear some... but that's probably another issue.
Hope some of this helped.

*sigh* I thought you might say that...
At any rate I went ahead and cleared everything off the SD card (after backing up, of course), then I ran all of the formatting and clearing options in CWM a couple of times. I also messed around with the partition size options in CWM. I didn't take a note of what sizes I chose but I went with the middle of the range options.
After flashing everything again and restoring what I could, it all seems fine again. Perhaps I missed a step in cleaning up before switching from CM7 to this ROM and left too much old info hanging around, eating up space and confusing things? DiskUsage now reports 485mb free, even though I restored all of the apps except GOBackup. Maybe the backup files were being stored in the wrong place.
Hi,
Having one old D-Z on shelf and now got inspired to flash custom Rom in it and this AlterNdromadus 10.1 seems most interesting Rom on sight, there is only one problem; can't find any download link for Rom
Could someone post a link or direct me to right place?

Lock sdcard access through USB possible if phone is locked ?
Hi,
Firstly, thanks a lot for AlterNdromadus !
I just migrated from my old CM 7.0.3 to this latest AlterNdromadus and ... ok, I should have to update earlier
I also flashed the latest gapp-light, updated my radio to latest Europe one and fixed the GPS with the recommended tool (just in case due to radio update)
Everything is ok except one thing. I set a PIN on my phone but it is still possible to access sdcard through USB cable even if the telephone is locked.
For me, it's like a security hole even if the SD card is physically accessible.
After googling the problem :
- I tried to find a "charge only" option without success (settings ==> storage ==> menu ==> USB connection to computer (path "translated" from french))
- I tried to disable usb mass storage but at least one of the three options has to be selected in the menu : USB Mass storage, PTP or MTP.
Why it is possible to access the SD card even if the phone is locked ?
Is there a way to fix this ? or a workaround ?
Thanks
P.S. Yes, English is not my native language
There is already already a KitKat Rom for HTC Desire Z. Problem with Desire Z is, that the hardware performance comes to an end, what I read in that post, so that someone went back to your 4.2.2 version. This was my experience, too, with an optimized 2.3.5 ROM. Without freezing some system apps my configuration wouldn't work on that. I am happy to be able to run a Android 4 version on the Desire Z at all to be able to install apps working only on 4 onward.
Great Rom but touch screen problem
This rom is great, But has anyone experienced touch screen problem after installing it?
I have to frequently lock on and off when my screen seems to stop responding to my touch.
How to fix it please?
Yep -- I have exactly the same problem. But I have to say that this issue has appeared after a some month of using this ROM.
