Just a little confused, i have a rooted phone, and stock / Market fixed rom
installed running froyo 2.2 (which is excellent. )
I would be very greatful.

1: backup all data on the SDCards as it will be wiped
2: if it is not already in the ROM - install ROM Manager: http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/tools/rom-manager_fjxs.html
3: use Rom Manager to partition the SDCard. (I use 'no swap' and 512MB EXT3)
4: put the data that you backed up in step 1 back on the SDCard
5: install a ROM that supports app2sd. All ROM cooks publish if whether their ROM supports apps2sc or apps2sd+
5: reinstall all your apps. They will now be installed on the SDCard until that runs out of space.
6: done.
I have rooted my htc desire with Goldcard, installed Involkd image for recovery
do i need to run any scripts or anything to get the apps2sd to work, i currently have Market fixed rom installed, as like to keep it as close to the org rom as possible,
So if the apps2ds is not installed with the rom were can i download this from, please you give me a link,? so i can flash this to the phone. also how do i use that rom manager, what is no (Swap)
Many Thanks for the help.

No. On booting the phone will link the memory on the SDCard to your internal memory, so the phone thinks it is loading all apps in internal memory, while it is actually stored on the SDCard.

This ROM does not support App2sd. If you want to stay close to the original AND use apps2sd, use a ROM like NextSense: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742371

On creating an extra partition on your SDCard, the Rom manager will ask what size the swap part needs to be (I used 0) and what size the EXT3 (I used 512).

No problem.
This Rom seems to be very unstable, i want a rom close to the org as possible, but also to include apps2sd, or a download for app2sd how to guide please.
I love the one i got, as its hardly been messed with, bloatware drives me crazy, if its
not broke do not fix it.
Thanks

Has all the problems with Sense rom been fixed.
Is their anyway i can update the rom i have, with the Apps2ds added to it, or do it has to be embedded into the rom.?
Also when you say ext 2 3 4, do i need to format my sd card 1st. and if so how to format in the phone or by a program from the market, ie : what you suggested before.
Thanks

Just try them all. I used NextSense for a while (5.1) and for me it was very stable.
New ROMs come out every day, so just try a couple of them and see which work well for you.
At this moment I use WhiteXperience 2.0 which does not use sense, so I do not use Sense at this very moment. Btw.: WhiteXperience 2.0 is extremely fast with low batery use. For me this is more important than Sense.
With Rom Manager you can quickly create a full backup of your ROM with all the apps and data. So, create a full backup, install a new ROM, play with it for a few hours and either keep the new ROM or restore the old ROM.
This way you can quickly test a new ROM and see if it does what you need.

That is the reason I use WhiteXperience, since it is based on CyanogenMod 6.
But again it is not based on Sense, which is what you want.

I have not tried that. I have only tried ROMs that support Apps2sd.
But then again, just try it out: http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-appstosd2-qBx.aspx and let us know if this works for you.
However, since Froyo uses another way of storing apps in SD, you might end up with an unstable system.

After the partition has been created you end up with a formatted, empty SDCard. So no prior formatting is necessary.

I've tried most of them if not all and NexTSense 5.3 is by far the most stable and best Rom on here. It's almost as stock as they come with Apps2sd installed. I think the only app changed is google maps to the slightly better brut version.
Define unstable? Most roms require a clean wipe before installing.
I agree with sbdags. NextSense is absolutely stable and, if you want Sense, this Rom would be the best choice to try out.
I flashed CM7 and gapps.
Now i was wondering how i can get the google apps?
Google Maps
Google Latitude
Goggle Mail
etc.
(would like all the google apps that came originally with the phone)
I'm new to the whole Desire world
I may be wrong with this so please wait til someone confirms but i think you can remove the apks' from another downloaded ROM and install them to your own. Just download the zip file of a seperate ROM find all the APK files you need and install ....
Not sure if any of these files have extra files on the ROM that you need to move with them so like i say please wait for someone with more knowledge to respond
my mistake didnt read the post fully
You can download them from Market.
That's why they're not included in gapps.
I didn't find it in market.
So i re-flashed the CM7 and gapps and got the menu where i can choose what i want to download. But it aswell couldn't find maps and gmail.
I had created .apk for all google apps of oxygen so everything works now.
Thanks for the help
That sounds very strange.
I flashed last night my HTC Desire to CM7, and flashed the gapps universal dpi.
With the first boot I was asked which Apps I would install and Maps & Latitude are downloaded from the Market.
Maybe you had the wrong gapps installed...

Same problem here. I installed the same way as you did, got the same install menue and some google apps were installed.
But not Maps and Earth.
So I tried via market. I find Maps and Earth in market but when I try to download, nothing happens. Can't DL, so can't install.
Tried Nightlies 25 to 33 with same result.
Also tried full wipe, but nothing changes....
I have a question about installing gapps. I found my gapps here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version/Google_Apps
how do I flash them? do I wipe all data/cache/dalvik first just like on done with the ROM?

No need to wipe.
Ok thanks
quick question again lol
I'm with alltel but my ROM says US Cellular..does that make any difference?
i had the same problem with CM7 #34 on the first try (only cleared data/cache before flash)
gapps universal start up just fine, but failed on downloading maps
also when trying later directly from the market the download failed without any error, it just stopped..
cleared data/cache & dalvik cache and reflashed CM7, after that it worked fine..
Very strange, I have no such problems with flashing the google addon.
I have downloaded CM7 Nightly #32 last week, and am going to flash a newer version soon.
Good luck everyone.

That solved the install problem
Still don't understand why I could not install via CM G-Apps or Market, but anyway....
Thanks!
That's probably because you are not in the US and not all apps are available everywhere. E.g. GMail isn't available, for whatever STUPID reasons, in the German market for me.
If you want it, all you can do is getting an app called "market access". It will allow you to emulate a SIM card from T-Mobile US and then you have access to everything.

ROM is very good good battery life in standby. But i have one problem with "Permission Manager" eg if some app need root access first time Permission Manager crash, but if i go to Permission Manager and allow that apps to root access (make rule) then everything is OK, that's is annoying only with new app requesting root permission first time, after create rule there is no problem I don`t know if only my have that problem :silly:

You can try SuperSu instead of the permission manager and it will work ok after that. Ohh and by the way shouldn't this post be moved to Acro thread ?
thanks for tip
P.S. If i don`t create this ROM it`s can`t go to Development section for Acro S, that`s why is here more info you find here: LINK
Flashed this yest. Works fine with locked bootloader.
The only problem is few apps are in chinese.. And even the clock widget has chinese font on it.. Any way to make it fully english?
And i noticed that my free ram is always low... Its always orange... Not much apps running at the background. Any idea?
And how do i flash GAPPS?
I install the zip from CMW but nothing at all..
for full English try select English(UK) language even if is selected in the phone settings and reboot phone.
For me google app works fine
Ok... If i want to flash GAPPS now.... Do i need to wipe data/cache/dalvik?
Sorry but wat are the apps in the GAPPS package?
How do i get Google Now on miui?
How do I install cwm on locked bootloader?

no need to wipe data/cache/dalvik, Inside GAPPS is Google Search, Googla Play Store, Gmail, Google Talk, not sure about Google Maps ( available in Google Play Store)
Where you store GAPPS.zip file? in internal SD or external ? Some of CWM Recovery showing only internal SD

guys i want to install vjs 4.1.2 ROM, i was having issues when i removed the battery all the apps got corrupted and all, i was using a2sd from the ROM itself. i read here around that if i use mounts2sd it would be better in terms of battery removal if not, it is still safe and won't corrupt apps... i want to know how to install this? should i install the ROM and then install this normally like an apk or what? thanks

You could install mounts2sd from recovery (Use the aroma zip version) and set it up from there.

Try going back to stock rom..wipe everything including internal storage(you may loose all your data)...you can also have a clean install via fastboot...
EDIT:- there might be some problem with your gapps.zip....better get a new set of gapps...

Thats Odd, You might not be installing it properly or else you are using wrong gapps package.
Go for miui 6 unofficial it has playstore preinstalled.
solved
THanks guys problem got solved actually there was a problem with cwm recovery. I replaced it with philz touch and now im ok. Thanks guys.
That's the same problem, I also had, first of all flash your phone with MI Flash, use the script, flash all , and save all your data before flashing, I used Miui v45 fastboot rom and my problem was fully solved, now after flashing gapps , i have almost 5 GB of free space.
I hope, this will help you.
