Hello,
Sorry if this has been already asked but I couldn't find the answer using the search tool
I've just bought my HD2 today and tried the NAND method
Everything worked fine but whatever ROM I flash, I only have 7.25 Mb of internal storage available
I thought it wouldn't matter since I have a 32 Gb sd card and set the install location to it but I nevertheless get the "Not enough storage" message when trying to download an app from the market
Can you please tell me where I went wrong ?
Thanks
You likely have a EU HD2 512 and have installed a ROM for a US HD2 1024. Read the build threads before flashing.
Thanks for your reply
The link you provided is the guide I used : flashed 2.08.HSPL, then MAGDLR and finally updated the radio to 2.15.50.14
I then installed this ROM with CWM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933951 . It's not mentionned whether it's for 512 or 1024
Did you mean I didn't use the right file while preparing the device or just the ROM ?
Thanks
OK, now I understand what you mean. There's a Desire HD Rom that says 47 mb left after first boot and that's exactly what I got after flashing it
I guess I'll just need a Gingerbread ROM that will leave enough space left after flashing on a Leo 512
If you have suggestions, because the 3 ones I tried so far left less than 10 mb after first boot =(
The one I would recommend would leave only 46 MB after install.

Hmmm, since you have the 512 version, I suggest making an ext 2/3/4 partition on your sd card to use app2sd+ or data2sd. so when you stall some apps, they go into the partition and not your internal storage. (the ext2/3/4 is a way to trick your phone into thinking that partition in your sd card is your internal storage)
Use the built-in advanced function in ClockworkMod Recovery to help create ext3 partition on your SD card. but you need to get ClockworkMod Recovery installed first…
Step by Step Guide
1. Backup your SD card data to PC before start partitioning.
2. Power on your phone and don’t let go power button.
3. DFT MAGLDR Bootloader will be loaded.
4. Press call button to load 1. Boot AD SD.
5. ClockworkMod Recovery will be loaded then.
6. Use volume down button to go down to ‘advanced’.
7. Then press call button.
8. Select ‘Partition SD Card’.
9. Select the ext size that you want (128M, 256M, 512M, 1024M, 2048M or 4096M).
10. Select 0M as the Swap Size.
11. Copy back your data to SD card.
12. That’s all.
CLICK ThankS
@rahan95
But the rom, you've mentioned - TyphooN CyanogenMod - is Gingerbread and should have left you much more than 100MB free on Int HD2 (I'm sure of it, because it's the one I'm using now myself and right now have 98MB free after installing few apps).
Check, if you've flashed with right settings for CWM - author of the ROM suggest 135M System/44M Cache.
Thanks for your replies
Coldest : I do have CWM instaleld since it's what I used to flash the roms. But it's on the Nand, not on the SD. Therefore, booting on AD SD doesn't work. Should I reinstall it but on the SD this time ?
Adecostres : I used this topic for installing CWM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898913
i flashed the 400MB thinking bigger was better but this may be wrong ?
Thanks again
With TyphooN's ROM, you should use this CWM (link from his thread): http://www.multiupload.com/5VH6M9XM8B
You will have 135M system / 44 Cache and more than 120M free space after flashing.
In this case bigger is NOT better - using bigger system part, you will have less space for apps
THanks a lot
I'll try that ASAP and will let you know !
It worked ! I have 229 Mb available after first boot =)
Thank you so much for your help !
Glad to hear
Hi, i am very new here and ilack some of the basic info. so i have couples of questions. thanks very much for your answers.
1. what is the internal memory of the htc hd2? and when you partition your sd to fat32 and ext3, will the internal memory be the sum of the ext3 and the phone internal storage?
2. when you want to flash your hd2 with a new rom. do you need to format both partitions of your sd card (fat32 and ext3)
3. when i tried the latest ultimate droid rom, i saw the author posted the rom and another thing called the layout (3.0.2.4_magldr_150M_partitionLayout_30M_cache). what does this do?
4. how do you make the phone to move or install apps in the ext3. and how do you back up those data and apps in the ext3?
and again, thanks guys for helping me out.
1 internal memory, do you mean what's available after a flash? 260 Meg or so with the small cm7 roms (typhoon for example)
No, the internal memory wont show the sum of internal plus ext BUT it will work as if it is. Say you install a 20meg program, internal mem goes down 20 but back up 20 after a restart.
2 no, when you perform the wipes through cwm it takes care of the ext partition and the .android folder on the fat32 for you.
Some apps may put data on the fat32, in which case you can delete those if you want or if you have isues.
3 the layout (clockworkmod, or cwm) sets up the various partitions on your nand (internal) memory, boot, system,cache,data. Without the layout there would be nowhere for the rom to flash into.
The main point of interest in cwm is the system partition size, big roms need big system partitions, sense roms for ex. need 250meg or more, typhoon needs 130. Flash a big rom to small layout fails, small rom on big layout wasted space.
4 you don't, if the rom says ap2sd enabled or words to that effect, it does it automatically. You can test this by loading up some apps then browsing the SD card on a Linux PC
When you run backups and such, it just does it, the phone has no idea that some of the info is on the SD, it treats it as internal.

i dont understand why is that? so if the rom is apps2sd supported, it will automatically install apps to ext3. then it makes sense to me that the mem goes down, but then why it goes back up???
Example, 250meg internal plus 1gig ext partition.
internal memory shows as 250meg,, install 20 Meg app which goes to ext partition BUT the system displays internal mem as 230, , you reboot the phone and check again and internal memory shows as 250 again.
oh, thanks alot, i get it. but which backup solution is the best? and how does backup using clockworldmod work? does it make a backup file to sd card?

Hi,
It depends what you want to back up.CWM backup will take a snapshot of your entire ROM system,data,settings,everything.A bit like a ghost image of a drive on your PC.
This way, if you install a new ROM and there is a problem,or you don't like it,you can RESTORE your original ROM and everything is back the way it was before.
CWM backup saves to the sd card.
If you just want to backup data,use something like Titanium Backup.
hello..
1. i'm noob...
2. i put Android to my HD2. ok...
Problems... Low Memory on my phone after a few instalations.
i make one partition ext3 on my SD.
My problem is that partition never seen by software...
When i try to put commands on the terminal, at "su" command i see the next message: "Permission denied"...
In the ROM MANAGER 4.3.2.3. when i try to partition SD card , when i try to install ClockwordMod Recovery , i choose the HD2 model and on my phone appear "An error ocurred while attempting to run privileged commands!"
PLS HELP!!!! My sd card in a 16Gb, class 10.
Only i needed is space for a new programs on my phone...
I send you a beer if you can help me (special pentru cei din Bucuresti eventual...).

maybe you have used a rom without root permission. make sure that your rom supports app2sd. Secondly partition your sd card with the help of gparted livecd or you can use the AD recovery's build-in tools to partition your sd card. then flash a rom supporting app2sd. here cm7 recommded,the extra space will be recognized automatically. if you use miui rom, pls make sure that your partition format is ext3. after flashing miui, open terminal-1.su-2.a2sd reinstall-3.reboot automatically-4.open terminal again-5.su-6.a2sd zipalign-7.a2sd cachesd-8.reboot automatically-9.just install whatever you want.

In QUICK INFORMATON INFO write:
sd card storage..... free 11 gb
A2SD storage 22 mb free
internal storage 40 mb free
system storage 18 mb free...
i don't understand something...
Yes.. it's a based MIUI ROM instaled
I can't use the terminal... i haven't permissions... read my first message...
"after flashing miui" - what do you recommand?
does it the miui rom you are using support app2sd ? and you haven't downloaded app2sd+ from market, if so id get a rom that supports app2sd, then id recommend downloading THIS to fully format your sd card, and would also recommend using THIS to partition your sd card Ext3/4 depending on rom...

if your rom is app2sd....
you must not have it set up correct make sure you take 1gb (1024) out of your sd card to use for app2sd, take a look at my screen shot at how many apps i have to what internal i have left with typhoon build...

This makes me believe that App2sd+ is working, how else is there only 22 mb free? What is the partition size you made?
Things you can do:
Clear Cache of apps
Clear the downloadfile-#.apk in /Cache/ (you need a root explorer to do this)
Backup apps, delete apps, restore apps.
Another thing to do is to start from scratch, reflash your rom, using a backup program to backup your apps. Completly clear caches, and wipe sd card.
DOING THIS WILL WIPE YOUR PHONE AND LOSE ALL SETTINGS
Rommanager is only available for cLK, make sure you have cLK, or phone will boot-loop.

I have american android NAND MAGLDR installed in my HD2. But I have one problem with low internal memory.
Briefly: I have very low internal memory. About 50 MB only despite the fact that I have moved all my downloaded market apps onto my SD card. Preinstalled Android apps like MAPS, facebook and so on Im not able to move to my SD card. But there are still updates of this apps and Im afraid of that there will not be any free space for them in the while because 50 MB is really very little.
is there any option how to solve this problem?

Search in the american android thread about data2sd script or an a2sd+ script, when you get there, there should bin instructions on how to install it, as it varies for different roms.
Cheers,

I made ext3 partition cca 800 MB and swap partition cca 133 MB on my SD card by using MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition.
Then I have put my SD card into HD2 and by using MAGLDR I have installed american android 2.3.7 NAND.
But problem is it shows that my internal memory is still the same (as was before I made ext3 partition 218 MB total and 159 MB free)
I believed that when I create ext3 partition it will increase my internal memory. But it did only that some space from my SD card disappeared.
Could somebody explain me why is that, what did I wrong ?

Depending on the script you are using, internal memory wont show an increase. If you want to see if its working use titanium backup. The reason for this is different scripts use different symlinks and linked directories.

titanium backup dont show me anything like ext3 partition
I have no idea what I did wrong .. I did it in accordance with instructions witch was written in american android FAQ
could somebody tell me please how could I use a ext3 SD partition in american android 2.3.7 NAND? Im working on it 60 hours and I dont know what I do wrong because my android is not able to mount that partition:
here is what I did:
1. operating system wm 6,5 HTC HD2
2. flash MAGLDR 1.13 and choosed option 5. flash USB
3. run american android setup (ACA setup exe) and installed it
4. took my SD card 4GB and by using minitools partition wizard i created:
- HD2 partition, primary, FAT 32, cluster 32k
- sd-ext partion, primary, ext3, 800 MB
- linux swap, primary, 128 MB
5. then I insert SD card into HTC HD2 and restart
6. android, titanium backup, android commander are not able to detect any ext3 partition
7. Link2SD was able to detect this partition and install apps in there but when I restarted my phone all apps installed in sd2 partition just disappeared. So now link2sd just shows there is something on sd2 partition but Im not able to see it nor use it
could somebody tell me what I did wrong ?
How could I run data2sd script or a2sd+ script on american android rom ? (I have looking for it on the thread but I didnt find instructions)
or tell me another option how to free internal memory of phone for american android 2.3.7 NAND CM7,2

hello, ok i do that ...sorry
den
BTW, thread reported........

Τhe device you have is not an original hd2 so i dont think that any of the roms or recovery we discuss here it will fit you.There are no specific "dual sim" roms because hd2 isnt a dual sim phone
In the best situation when you go to install recovery from hd2 it will not work and in worse situation you`ll brick your phone
ext partition you can do in your pc with a programm like mini partition tool manager and a programm to move apps in ext3 partition in many devices is link2sd from play store.
