HI all
I was wondering if it was possible to move the maps (about 3gb i think) that come with Ndrive to the external SD card I have?
The reason is my internal SD is now full (only 138mb available out of 8 gig) and have used app2sd to move everything I can to the phone memory but I cant free any more up now.
Any help would be great
Regards Jim
I don't think that's possible. However, if you're not interested in photographic maps, you can delete the entire rasterdata folder.
Hi,
I dont have the version with the photographics maps installed.
I found this but it doesnt make any sense to at all!!!!

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
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.
Just a random question,
This community is allways knowledgable so any insight would be great!
I got TOMTOM for my kaiser today and I was attempting to install it
to my SD card (8gig..6 of which free) but during the installation
process i didnt even get the option to change the installation location.
it just auto-installed to my internal mem. not so bad but after i start
adding voices and maps its going to not be enough space. So my question
is ...is there a way to reroute programs to the SD post installation...forcably
install to an SD..or link parts to a program, like maps for a GPS, from an SD.
thanks for any insight kaiser fans!
you can install tomtom on your device and place the voices and the maps of the sd card
I installed the voices on the SD...it wasnt able to find them until they were added to the specific "voices" folder. is there a way to make tomtom look elsewhere for the files? or a way to shortcut into the original directory? preferably id love to find away to override it and force the entire program to install onto my SD...I havent the slightest on how to do that though.

Is this normal for TomTom??
Installation locations are chosen/set by the SW author at the time of cab creation. There may be a way of re-directing this but it would probably cause a heap of problems.
Installation of the main apps to internal memory is usually done to give the maximum speed efficiency of regularly called files, SD card access is much slower than main memory.
Bit of a trade off...
Couldn't say if it was normal for tomtom,
its my first time installing it/using it. But what you said about memory in general makes ALOT of sense. Thanks!
I'll keep poking around tomtom forums specifically for a way to link the features to the SD..maps, voices, POIs etc. thanks for the advice.
did you place the voice files in the root of the sd card??
create a folder called "voices" in the root of the sd card and then place the voice files in there
as for the maps, put the folder of the maps in the root of the sd card
That worked like a charm!
Thanks for the help. I didnt have them in the root directory i was just trying to find a way to link my custom dir.
Thanks for your help

Checkout www.tomtomforums.com and you can get tons of POI's, map themes, and some voice files too.
Something that has annoyed me with the new TOM TOM after an update from TOM TOM Home it installed it on my main memory instead of storage card so therefore it now takes up so much room that I can't install any more programs. Any way of modding the installation cab to install on my storage card instead ????
Have searched and also tried using pocket mechanic to move whole program to storage cars but then the gps refused to lock on.

..when installing tt on internal storage map share will not work any more!
Move all files except tthome.bif (created when connecing to tthome) to the internal memory, create a Program (or Program files folder head memory. (I don't have an english version and am not sure of which name.)
Keep a copy of CurrentMap.dat and UserPatch.dat in the original folder.
Home works, everything else as before. Not sure if this is the nicest way, but it works.
P.S. You have to create a new shortcut to TomTomNavigator.exe in the programs folder, and delete the old one.
Thanks have sorted it by filling up my main memory with MP3's etc then trying to install the cab. It then says memory full do you want to install on storage and voila sorted.

nice one, good trick
I have iGO up and running fine on my 4 gig storage card, but would really like a short cut for it on my Home Screen . . . . Currently running Duttys V10 Rom so i have 9 available slots for quick shortcuts. The Storage device doesn't have enough room to store iGO any one have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
you can do it with rosco explorer, send it over there as a short cut to main screen.
Got resco explorer, will need help locating files eeeeek
rrroy your a legend . . . . Thank You very Much

Not sure what your issue is?
If you have iGo configured correctly, you install it from SD card and it puts the program into the prgram directory but stores the maps, etc on the SD.
So when you click to add the short cut its there in the list.
**Edit**, I just realized what you're probably doing wrong. You have to look for Nav n Go instead of iGo in your program list.
