Hello devs,
Our htc one is the greatest and powerful smartphone in the market. but still it have many drawbacks. The biggest is that it does not support ext sd card. And in 32 gb model there is only 25.49 gb available to the users.
I know this left out space is for OS and rom types memories and some tools...But 6.5 gb is very huge space..
So can we increase this internal storage to more like in many low end devices like explorer, wildfire, wildfire s, desire, etc..
Plz devss make a fix for it as i know you guyz can only make this..
You guyz are great.. thanxx
Best of luck devs

Not that huge imo. A stock ruu.zip is about 1.1gb compressed and some space required for cache, app data and user data.

Htc explorer, wildfire, wildfire s and desire all have ext sd card slot

you can't... it's just space that isn't there for you. there are several other partitions that use the memory... so you won't get these gigs.. and you also have to calculate these 32 Gigs like this:
32 Gigabytes for intelligent people: 2^30*32 bytes! -> 34'359'738'368
32 Gigabytes for vendors: 10^9*32 bytes! -> 32'000'000'000
And there you see... then just calculate this way and you get what the android system shows you:
(32*10^9)/(2^30) = 29.9 Gigabytes...
What you see now: You lose(at cause of other partitions) about 4.3 Gigybytes... so that's what you actually can get... but remember, the system and all the other partitions are very important too, and stealing their space could cause insability!

Hey, have a look in the cm10 dev-thread! It has been discussed for very long now. Due to performance reasons pawitp swapped the layout of the two NAND-chips in our SGS. (System partition: 1,8GB - Data-partition: 488MB)
This was pretty clever, because people with an old SGS (slower oneNAND) have a much better performance of cm10 now, so i think it never gets reverted!
If you want the old partition layout back, look for other cm10 roms out there. There are some with the old /datadata-trick that worked pretty well in cm9.
If you want to stay at cm10 and use pawitp's new partition layout for a faster experience, you should move large apps to SD-Card
Hope this helped, Cheers

how do you move apps to sd card ><

Go to Settings/Apps, there you can move apps to SD, if the developer of the app enabled it. Just click on a fat app and look for the "move to SD" button or similar
There is also an app at the playstore that's called App2SD. It lets you move your apps in a more comfortable way. :good:
Cheers

Hi
I want to buy a refurbished Nexus One to install Android 4.0 or 4.1 on it. and this will be my first android phone
But I'm worried about it's little ROM !just 512MB
How much memory will be available after installing 4.0 for apps ?
Can I install apps on SD memory card completely or they will use some of ROM memory too ?
Does installing 4.0 courses my apps and games run slower than before ?
Thsnks a lot
if u need to run anything beyond 2.3 then u need to install BLACKROSE (a custom bootloader) and change the hboot partitions.
and yes u need to partition ur sd card and apps should be placed in sd ext, which might be lil slower

If I use SD Memory ,internal ROM will not be used for apps at all? You mean the partition on SD memory will be used instead ?
Can I use SD mem on 2.3 version too ?
Can I use a high speed SD to speed up running apps ?
Can I do All this thing with HTC Desire too ? these two phones are so similar !
Thanks

yes you can. you need to create ext partition first. provided your rom/kernel supports it(which every rom/kernel does)
yes you can do this wid gb roms too.
u need a fast sd (class 6 or above) for apps n games to load faster

Although the N1 has only 512MB, don't underestimate its ability to take on ICS and JB ROMs The latest JB 4.2 ROM can be flashed on N1!!!
Hi guys. My uncle gifted me this device with CM Mod 3 month ago. Now this device lags as nokia 5800 .
I have only 72 mb of 256 free RAM space .. I cant play Trial Extreme 3 and so on.... I run Opera and Vk , and my device cant open any other applicantion.
Processor overclocked on 1Mhgz and i use JiT ( setuped in cm settings)
It surely needs a swap partition. Read other topics how to set such a partition on the sd card.
Sory but i dont understand, i need to swap a partition for more Ram ? Or better to setup CM 10 with android 4.2 ?
Swap partition is a partition you create on your sd card. It supports your phone with extra memory and its capacity. You can use mini mod by fufu to setup swap, ext partitions.
If you want to set up Cm 10 on your milestone, you can't make it without ext. The swap partition is required too.
Cm10 will work faster or slower? I can make 1gb swap , i have 32gb flash, cuz i only want very fast phone
Definitely it is cm7. Much faster and smoother. The thing is, Milestone is kind of outdated phone in terms of hardware (some say it has pretty good cpu, but has to be overclocked anyway), thus you cannot expect miracles. I would sick to cm 7.
CM7 is your choise

And every update that the apps are making make the M1 slower
Not use cm10 on this, try cm9, cm10 is really slow
I read this article about increasing the RAM on Android phones, basically it included partitioning your SD card and installing some software. And I was wondering if any of you have tried it or think it works with Desire C using CM10? Here's the link if you want to look for yourself: http://www.technodify.com/how-to-increase-internal-memory-and-ram/

Having more ram doesn't make your phone faster. Partitioning your SD card means sacrificing storage for stuff that most of the times don't work that well. My personal opinion is to not go there.
I have just got my hands on a Galaxy Ace S5830 It will be my spare /temporary phone for a while so I thought I would have a play with it So far it's a great little phone.
It was on the standard rom but I am greedy and I now have ROOT + CWM 5.0.2.6. and then upgraded to Kitkat For All [CWM.5.x] CM 11, Omni & Omega by Salim PS earlier today and it's much nicer than the stock stuff.
The only problem I am having is the totally crap internal storage limitation Is there anything that can be done to increase it? Once I install a few apps I am totally out of internal storage space Which is no fun at all...
I have had a look around but i really don't know what I am looking for Can you help...

You need a rom that uses a Kernel with swap support and you need to partition your sd with CWM (advanced settings). No cm11 kernel has swap support and link2sd don't work either. Some Cm 10.1 and below do. I just suggested to another member who was after a good rom to use this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2599760 Use S2 touchwizz style with cronmod. Partition your sd first. Instructions are probably on here for that but i just followed this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U_Sp_BtzrM
I think all the reading I've recently done regarding up/downgrading the ace's software has fried my brain, So I had a couple of days off and just enjoyed using a new phone.
Anyway I can't believe how simple that was Thank you very much, I put in an 8GB SD and set my SD ext to 1GB and all is well, Running nicely too with that rom.

I certainly understand the brain frying. Yeah that rom is the best i've found and i've tried most in the past 3 weeks. Glad i could help. :highfive:
CM11 allows you to use a external partition too using S2E script

Well i never knew that! I had the PSN cm7.2 + 9 ics + 10.1 jb swapall scripts as zip's but i couldn't find one for cm11. The only thing that put me off the 4.4.4 KK rom was not having swap. Damn i wish my phone was working now I hope the jig works
