I have only used A2sd Roms but now thinking of using D2ext Roms. I have a few questions first,
1. Other than speed, do D2ext Roms offer any other advantages?
2. Is it true that nandroid backups do not work on D2ext Roms as recovery does not recognise the 2nd partition?
3. Any disadvantages?
4. Anything else I need to know?
Thanks

The main benefit you get is additional space.
Personally I would only move if you are really low on space. I have tried a couple but found to many issues.
had some issues too but i know if it was my slow class 2 micro sd being the cause... i tried miui data2ext
Go try droidzone's RoM startburst 2.2 or supernova 2.3. Class4 or better is best for data2sd, but other people have used class2 fine, maybe there using good braned cards.
I would never go with another RoM with out data2sd because I like having 2GB internal space, I was so pissed of when I got my phone and after couple days it was asking to remove app's. Droidzone RoMs are very fast and stable 2.2 but not has fast has 2.3.
hi everyone, a friend of mine has a desire (stock rom) and always the problem that the internal capacity is full. now we are looming for a stable rom which basicly has sd card limit for apps and is not restricted to the intetnal one.
ive read quite a lot here and lokked at some roms and have some favorites, but i would like to get some input from actual desire users what rom they use and how the situation is with the app storage space.
so what rom do you use?
and hows the app storage situation with the rom?

you're going to get confusing answers from this question in my opinion, though you could try here. if you want stability at the moment stick with GB roms.
best bet would be to browse through a few in the development section, see what your friend wants, rather than what other people tell you is the BEST ROM EVER

virtually all of them will have raised the limit on app storage using various scripts, which is one of the main reasons of custom roms on desire in the first place
each rom will have their own requirements, but generally need an sd-ext partition (use 4ext recovery or gparted) and/or a hboot partition table.
i've always found this guide useful in understanding root/memory stuff.

Supernova,by Droidzone, just do a 2gig ext4 partition and you will have 2gig of internal memory.
This Rom is base on stock 2.3 and is tweak for the better. Super smooth and your low memory days are over. Don' t take my word try it yourself
my HTC Desire runs actually BCM cyanogenmod9 with a data++ hboot
Anyway, you could get free space without changing rom and avoid using sd card ext (which might introduce some lags), by flashing the bravo Sense hboot (saving 70MB and keeping HTC Desire's stock rom).
That's my point, but it depends on your friend's rom preferences
thanks all for the feedback, actually i looked yesterday at some roms and supernova was one of the roms i considered since its aosp based, the other would be mildwild which is cm7 based, i guess i will just add my friend what suits her better and then go with that.
any bugs or other issues i should be aware with theae roms?
oh and i think the device has 5.11....radio i think. will that cause problems?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I just converted to mildwild 4.1.9 and can vouch for it being very impressive. I have setcpu app on it and now have 75% battery at the end of the day. I have a 16GB SD card and loads of storage so far, but I must say I am more disciplined with what I install now, as I used to gum it up with anything and everything! Mine is a desire GSM btw.

Oxygen rom is worth a look. AOSP rom that is closest to stock Gingerbread that you'll gonna get for desire. Just use the custom hboot for it found in http://alpharev.nl. (s-off required) and EXT partition on the sd card and it should give you one of the most stable rom with decent space for your apps.
check http://oxygen.im to get the rom.
iv been using mildwild oxygen the past week and got no complaints, i used runnymede aio as my "stock" rom and always went back to it lol but i honestly cant see myself going back this time
Sent from my HTC Desire
thnaks a lot for the feedback,
we tried mildwild oxygene but after one day and 5 self reboots its clear this is not stable at all.
now i have an other question, i flashed cm 7.2 with full wipe but the device always booted/rebooted into recovery... what can be the cause of that? mithg we have some partitioning problem here?
or something else thats wrong?
i partitioned the sd card with the cwm (1gb ext, 32mb swap) that gets installed with rom manager (5.0.2 or so i think).
if this is the problem, would be awesome to get a link to what we need to make cm 7.2 work. thanks.
lol mildwild oxygen not stable? probably 1 of the top 3 most stable roms iv used. using it now, not 1 single problem.

well thats nice for you, but my friend got lots of reboots so i dont consider this stable at all and we need to try somethig else.
i guess its like oc/uc nor everything works for every device.
that is nice for me. also could have something to do with that rom manager and partitioning ur sdcard with that crap cwm

maybe you could mention something better instead of just calling cwm crap?
well maybe if u wasnt so cheeky i would of. cwm is known to make bad partitions so maybe try 4ext recovery or gparted to partition. i use 1gb ext4 and rest fat32 (no swap) with mildwild oxygen and iv had no problems so maybe try 4ext recovery
Sent from my HTC Desire
thanks for the information, i will check the partitions today with gparted and probably reformat. i created a 32m swap partition and i dont know if cwm created a ext3 or ext4 partition so that might be the problem...
i did not intend to be "cheeky" (and not sure if i understand it correctly, sometimes im getting a bit upset when people post something like: " it works for me." and do not think about adding some info what could be different:O
if ur gona use mildwild oxygen i dont think u will need a swap size when u partition sdcard, just do a 1gb ext4 or 1.5gb max and the rest fat32

Hi
new ICS 4.0.4 by sandvold is very smooth and you can have alot of internal memory.

I am using MW based on Oxygen v4 with a SD-EXT partition of 1GB and set-up with APPS+DATA to SD-EXT. Don't think I am close to running out of space. I have 104 apps installed including the big ones like Google+/Skype/etc.

Hello guys please tell me the best custom ROM for
my htc wildfire S
for best performance and installing more apps
The amount of apps you can install depends on which you choose Link2sd or Data2sd. Choose link2sd if your card is of class 4 or less. Go for data2sd only if you have a good card..
Almost all the ROMs are good here...
Personally I prefer these according to their spec.
Sense 2.1 / GB2.3.5
Wildchild
hensemod
Mindhaxor GB2.3.5 The thread was deleted so sorry can't get you the link.
Sense 3.5/ GB 2.3.5

I have both HTC Wildfire S and HTC Explorer. I would still prefer Wildfire S over explorer. The only drawback of WFS is that the processor is slightly older.
But WFS has a good android development team but there is just a single ROM for Explorer.
Go for Wildfire S. Its worth it.

Custom WFS ROM on S-ON?
Can I install HenseMod7 on my S-ON Wildfire S?
Im asking this because, in the steps for installing HenseMod7 there is some steps only of S-OFF devices... That means HenseMod7 is intended for S-ON devices too (S-ON means UNROOT too)
So my question is the HenseMod7 can be installed on my UNROOTED + S-ON Wildfire S?

You need SOff or S-On with unlocked bootloader + root.
The Wildfire S has that really irritating low internal memory problem when on stock.
Use the Data2SD flashable ZIP included with most ROMs posted up there. You can use ROM Manager to quickly partition your SD card (but it formats it so you lose all data on it).
If you use a Sense ROM, then Facebook for HTC Sense will pump your ContactStorage with profile pics, so even if you do Link2SD (which doesn't link system apps), you might run into low mem after a few 1000 messages and syncing contacts with fb.
.theme prob
.guys i've downloaded some themes for this ROM alpha6.
.after applying these themes, nothing happens. i mean, icons are still the same.
.the only theme that worked for me is the outline theme for cm9.
.anyone with the same prob? thanks for the ROM though its great
MIUI V4 is the best Rom.
If your'e looking for a fully stable rom then cm7...but i prefer cm9 but it's not as stable as cm7
For daily use wildchild is the best. It can play games overclock and everything else so well with lots of free internal memory.

in addition to this great post, you should also save what you want if you havent flashed your phone yet, and partition your SD card so that it will have a swap and apps partition that the phone will throw apps to instead of the phone memory by default. i have a 32GB sd card myself so it gets a 4096MB apps ext3 partition, and a 1025MB swap partition. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for better performance. by default, Android does NOT have a very large swap file, if at all. this all can be achieved by using the ClockWorkMod Recovery Image. Use that to achieve your partitions instead of using a PC.

This is the EXACT problem I have with links2sd on the wildfire s I currently have.
However, everyone suggests, on this rom and others, that if you don't have a class 6 or above card, then don't use apps2sd or data2sd (are these the same?)
I have the stock 2gb card that came in the wildfire s and I believe it's a class 2 or 4 maybe? Is this going to be a problem with the stock card?
Also I think this has to be setup as a gold card or something? I can't remember how it works with this phone
WildChild mentions that he has odex and de-odex? Which one does everyone recommend? Odex has 117 mb free, de-odex only has 77mb free.
Also Wildchild only used app2sd, not data2sd.
Hensemod uses links2sd which is where the super slowdowns on my phone are coming from per above.
How would I use data2sd instead on either of these?
(I tested my sd card speed and it's 6mb a sec easy)

.....rom manager and clockwork recovery aren't very good for the g2, I suggest switching to 4ext recovery and don't use rom manager if you don't know how to use the recovery
in which every recovery you use there is an option to partition sd card. 512mb is rather small unless you have a g1. usually want a ext4 partition larger than internal memory, but use what works for you
linux swap is often a bad idea unless you do a lot of multitasking with sense roms, even then I feel it isn't a performance boost in most occasions but rather it slows the phone
having your apps on your ext partition won't mean the apps reappear @ a new rom flash, it doesn't work this way. and what you said was a bit contridicing as you won't be changing roms but you want apps on sd to keep them when you do? well either way that isn't the point of a2ext
and as a side note you would have found all this info plus more with a little searching

A2SD is integrated in the ROM. Since you already have an ext4 partition, it should get activated automatically. No action required from you.

Please allow me to borrow this thread a little bit instead of starting a new one.
I am also interested in getting a custom ROM, but I just can't live without the default Sense UI. I think I read somewhere that Lee Droid is a popular ROM that has the HTC Sense UI. But I have searched for it using Google and they don't seem to have a dedicated website.
I think there is a member here at XDA with the name LeeDroid. Is that the guy behind this ROM?
Is Lee Droid being actively developed at the moment?
How do I download and flash Lee Droid, or any other ROM? I mean is ROM Manager a must? Or can I use the option "install from zip" in CWM?
So except for Lee Droid, and Cool Droid, what other ROMs are using Sense UI? I just need the basic version, nothing extra flashy and HD, etc. I installed Cyanogen 7 once but didn't like the interface so I removed it.

I see that LeeDroid requires ext3 partition for Data++. I'm not sure what Data++ does but I know it has something to do with memory, and I love memory, and this phone (Desire) is known for constantly running out of memory. So I'm interested in that feature.
I used the Link2SD app for some time (on root, S-OFF and stock ROM with Android 2.29) and it worked pretty well until the Netflix app broke it down for some reason. It just wouldn't play nicely with Link2SD, the Netflix app was the only app that did not work. I ended up in boot loop and having to reflash everything with RUU. Luckily I saved my data.
Which one of those ROMs listed above is best for off-loading the internal phone memory and has minimal change to the UI? Do they all have A2SD integrated? I think this part is essential for this phone to work properly. I can't believe they put in so small memory in it. If I knew I wouldn't have bought it. I was not informed about it, I was just swept in all the hype about it that I didn't pay much attention to that aspect of the phone. I think I was under the impression that at least 512 MB would be available for user data.

Data++ is an hboot. An hboot is the partitioning layout of the desires internal memory. There are 3 partitions: system, data and cache. In order to have the most amount of space for app data, you want a bigger data partition. The Data++ hboot allows you to have this. As you can see on alpharevs website, the data++ allocates the memory like this:
System -180M Cache-5M Data-252M
To use this hboot, the rom's system size must be able to fit into the system partition (in this case 180mb).

So HBOOT is not the actual bootloader (IPL+SPL)? Because that's what I thought it was...
I would like to try the An-Droid (Anderl's Android).
So what I need is "bravo_alphaspl-data.img" file from AlphaRev website and the AN-Droid 2.2.0 data++ file? The AN-Droid file is called "An-Droid_2.2.0_data.zip" and it is 154.8 MB. So this will work?...
