First Ever HTC Phone

Hello guys,
I am very new to HTC phone and i managed to root my htc desire
using this guide nimbu.amorvi.com/2010/05/how-to-root-your-htc-desire
after root you can see in the picture i have App2sd enabled in pictures but my internal phone memory is still going lower. I have couple of gameloft games installed Ashphat 5, RealFootball, Gangster,heavy gunner and hawx and apps like astro, act1, documents to go.
I tried installing Darktremor A2SD version 2.7 but phone kept on restarting after htc logo so i rooted the phone again with nimbu.amorvi.com/2010/05/how-to-root-your-htc-desire guide.
My phone is on orange contract uk. I don't want to brick this phone.
please guide me to the right direction to install right rom with apps2sd+ or apps2sd so that every thing gets installed on sd card instead of phone memory. I have been reading this forum and Modaco forum for couple of days now. I can't get apps2sd to work properly so i can have loads of phone memory.
I have 16gb Sd card class 2 during apps2sd process i made Goldcard with sd card 4gb which came with the phone.
I don't want to brick my phone. what is the safe method?
Please guide me in right direction so i can enjoy desire more.
Sorry if i asked question which were asked before.
Thanks

I'm facing the exact same problem as yours. All the tests shows that app2sd and app2sd+ is working.
But, the internal memory still decreases. Till now, I have no idea how to solve this.

Apparently it's related to the /data/data/ folder still filling, I don't know much more past this point.

There must be another rom which has app2sd+ where application gets installed in to sd card.
I am not sure about if i should boot to some awesome roms posted here. Will try when someone who was in same situaution as me gives me thumb up to install new rom and apps2sd which works

As has been previously said, the application does get installed to the SD card. However, any "data" in /data/data is left in internal memory.
I have Copilot installed on my Desire. It takes up 18.50mb in total - 11.23mb for the application and 7.27mb for data. If I used Apps2SD, I should regain the 11.23mb, but the 7.27mb data is still in internal memory.

I understand that some data gets installed on internal phone memory. I also read in these forum people are downloading google earth and co pilot big application and they still have over 100mb data left in internal memory. I haven't installed apps2sd+ i only have apps2sd normal when i followed this guide nimbu.amorvi.com/2010/05/how-to-root-your-htc-desire.
I wanted to know is there any other rom which has apps2sd+ which store majority data in sd but not internal rom.
Which rom do you think is better for newbie like me. Modaco customer R3 which has app2sd+ custom build or any other free rom in htc Desire Android Development thread?

[Q] Memory card problems

Hey hope somebody can solve this problem
I bought a new 7 GB SD card for my Wildfire not so long ago and saved most of my apps from the phone accross to it. All was fine for a while until my phone alerted me saying that it was low on storage space. On checking the memory card I noticed that I still had well over 6 GB of free space. All the apps that I checked are saved onto the SD card and some don't give an option to be moved to SD card. This is also stopping me from downloading new apps and also all the apps I have wont update as it says there is no space, even though there is plenty.
My wildfire is NOT rooted and has the original HTC installed Android OS (Froyo 2.2.1)
I am planning on rooting the phone and putting on a custom ROM in the future but in the meantime I was wondering if there was a solution to this problem.
All help is appreciated.
Thanks, Wooster

When your deivce say that you are low on storage than it means that you don't have enough internal memory space left!
You cannot move many apps to your sd card because your device is not rooted.
I would recommend you rooting your device to solve that problem because then you can create custom mtd partitions and installing a2sd script (both can be found in development thread).

Thanks for the reply. I will just root the phone then today. Thanks for the help

old apps still in mem card?

Hi, I flashed JJ's Hybrid Rom yesterday, and ofc did a full wipe(not memory card)
and started installing apps(manually)
I just want to know, are the old apps still there? in the memory card? ..I dont need them, but are those apps which were 'copied(installed) on mem card' still there?
if so, then how do I remove them?..(obviously they are just using the space for nothing)

insuffient storage

hey guys,
i am on stock lollipop 5.1 but every time i try to download from play store. it pops up an error about insufficient storage, although i do around 250-300 mb free in internal and 1gb in my sd card.
please help
and thanks in advance :laugh:

Same Issue
I am facing the same issue. I have also tried a workaround. I have rooted my phone and now move most of the apps (except system ones) to the SD card. Still every time an app is updated it moves to the phone by itself and I have to move them over again. This is very annoying in case there are multiple apps requiring update and I cant update them all at once since after one of them updates, there is no more space. Is there any fix on this issue or maybe another workaround?? Any help is really appreciated. Thanks

I think the only solution is rooting the phone and making a partition in your SD card for apps, then all apps will install in that location without going to internal storage.

[Q] Downgrade from Lollipop to KitKat problems....

Hi all.... I have a bit of a problem.... I want to downgrade back to KitKat from Lollipop.... but the external sdcard and the internal storage is no longer seen by the phone or CWM.....
I did reconfigure the memory (as per instructions) structure and was using the memory card as the storage but this card failed ... so instead of destroying another card I decided to go back....
I managed to flash the L18i ftf... the phone will work now but says no storage and wont aknolege the external SDcard
Large appologies if there is a thread somewhere else but I have been searching for a few nights and come up empty handed....
Thanks for any help...
