Happy New 2008,
Was exploring my Kasier & noticed from Setting->Memory that my memory status as follow:-
Main, Total:135M, In use:130M, Free:5M
Program, Total:101M, In use:42M, Free:59M
Which is the RAM memory? ROM memory?
When I went to "remove program", I realised programs that I installed are shown in "Programs in storage memory".. even I had directed to "memory card".. How do I know which are the program I had intended be installed in memory card? I'm confused and would appreciate any kind soul can direct me...
Thanks in advance..
Do you think this helps?
Regards,
Carty..
Sorry, just to confirm, so when you are installing a program, you tell it to install to your Micro SD Card, but it installs to the Main Memory instead?
Thanks.
Yes, I directed to micro-SD card, I can see the files are stored under the program files of memory card, but why it occupied the "storage memory" of the main memory, now I left with 5M??
Actually, I am having this problem as well. Programs that I had installed on the Micro SD are showing up in the Program Files folder on my device rather than storage card.
I just uninstalled Google Maps and confirmed absence of Google Maps folder in both device and mem card. When reinstalling the app, I chose to install on mem card. However, browsing with Total Commander shows the Google Maps exe and folder has been installed to main mem, with no Google Maps folder to be found on mem card.
Any bright ideas?
try clearing your temp internet files that eats a lot of phone memory and should free up quite a bit for you
Thanks for that. It's not really the amount of free memory that is the issue for me. It's more the fact that, despite choosing "SD card", all the programs seem to be installed on the main memory.

Can I change the balance between storage memory and program memory? I don't need all that for programs, but I need more for storage!
WM5 installas all programs to FLASH, it only run them in RAM, and you cannot install to RAM.
However: most programs that are not todat-plugins or stay resident, can run perfectly well from storage card (SD).
i run ALL programs from SD, except for these few that are resident..
Thanks, but it's the document storage I need. I have a few SD cards, but there is a lot of stuff I need to have no matter what SD card that's in the reader. Does that mean that I can't use that extra memory?
somebody was talking about the possibility for a RAM-drive - I would suggest you search for that article .. that would fix your problem.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
that works, but is only a temperary solution, when you soft reset, you loose everything, i made the mistake of moving all my documents into the folder it created, and when i soft reset, i lost everything, some very very valuble pics i wanted to keep got lost.
Then that's not the solution. Gotta rethink this stuff...
can some one point me in the right direction for this been look thru multiple thread trying to find it but no luck.
this is for a cingular 8125
The main drive for what? If you mean the IE cache, then the Registry Wizard found on this forum can do that. If you mean for individual apps, the CAB files will allow you to choose whether to install on the device or on the memory card when you install them. Beyond that, I guess I'm not sure what you'd mean...
I guess he wants the entire OS to run from storage card instead. Its like you want Windows XP running off a DVD-RW disk instead of HDD for your PC.
no i think he probably means when you install some apps to the storage card .. when you go to run them it is looking for the ".EXE" on the device and throws an error... probably how to fix that ..
i just want all apps to run from storage using 2 gig sd card, seem slike everythin i install and choose storage card seems to be on main memory instead of storage even tho i choose storage card i still see in main memory
A lot of apps will still copy some stuff to main memory regardless where you want to install them. Some apps like Today plug ins will even have problem running off storage card especially on old ROMs. Keep this in mind, storage card is slow and not immediately available after wake up from sleep mode. It is best left to be used as storage (as the name implies) rather than program memory.
hello,
first: very good page, with a lot of infos and bombastic apps.
but i'm a newbie, i read a lot, but couldn't find a post recommend to my question. also my english isnt very good
my problem: i bought my herald without a memory card. so i installed the apps i found&liked (touchflo,flashlite,kaiserhomeplugin,htc cube clone;total commander;google maps,scitebackup) in the ram of my ppc.
but today i bought a micro sd card. now i would like to move my apps to the card.
questions: can i cut&paste the apps in the folder "programms" to a folder in my card, with the total commender. or isnt this allowed because of the registry or something like that? maybe problem with the .ink files?!
is it better to uninstall all programms. and install them new,this time directly to the sdcard?
thanks for your helps
greetings...
you can try copy paste
just like on pc's some will run others will not
though mind you things like today items and other always
running programs should not be put on the sd card
as they are much slower then storage
thank u
My SD card runs them as fast as the main memory, but I wouldn't install things that are running all the time in it. So, don't install things like the cube on the card. You should uninstall and reinstall the programs into the proper memory storage. It's easier and less problematic that way.
You can move installed programs between MAIN or SD memory using POCKET MECHANIC (http://www.wizcode.com/)
I moved all the tmobile crap (hotspot login, tzones wap, etc..) and anything else I don't want to get rid of, but I never use onto my SD card.
How will we have to wait for a 10 or 12 gb Micro SD Card
Can somebody please explain how much internal memory my phone should have, I'm a bit confused I thought it was 192MB.
If i open memory in the settings it shows Storage 93.98MB and Program 113.07MB.
Correct me if I wrong but I think the program memory is like the ram on a computer to run programs etc and the storage is for any programs that I load or files I save but I have hardly installed anything and my storage is only showing 23MB. Whats using all my memory?
All theories and explanations:

Hey everyone,
I have the Kaiser and am having trouble with my storage memory.
Total: 125.04 MB
In use: 111.10 MB
***Free: 13.88 MB ***
Why is my storage memory so damn low?... How do I find out what's taking so much mem up?... How do I free that memory up??? I have no programs open, and most of my programs are on my 4 gig storage card.
Any help or suggestions are truly appreciated!

Make sure the caches of IE, OPERA, ETC are deleted routinely.
If you are storing ringtones on your main memory, download software that will allow ringtones on the storage card.
Same goes with any audio clips, videos, or pictures.
If you use resco explorer, make sure the recycling bin is cleaned, or simply disable the recycling bin.
This should free up a nice chunk of storage space. (Ofcourse assuming that most of your programs are actually on your storage card; check your main memory programs folder to actually see whats installed on your main memory)
Thank you for your help!
One more (silly) question - When I install programs to my Tilt, it asks me if I want to install them to the main storage or my memory card. I almost always choose memory card, yet when I check my main storage memory after I install to my storage card, the main storage is depleted... Even though I chose storage card, it still installs some components to the main memory... why is this?
ekw, whats the name of the sofware that allows storage of ringtones on memory card with kaisers?
Thanks....
Just move them to the route of your memory card - no need to purchase software!
Just like on the full-sized Windows, certain programs will want to install a couple of files in the system directories regardless of where the program itself is installed... Those shouldn't be big though.
