Hi, I have been using PPC/phone for quite some time, all my previous devices are having 128MB Rom and I used to install most of the apps to the external memory card in order to save free up some internal memory.
Recently I upgraded to Atom Exec which has extra 32MB ROM, will there be any different in term of performance if I install the apps into the internal ROM beside the application loading time? eg. playing movie with TCPMP that install in internal ROM as compare to TCPMP player that install in external storage, playing music using PocketMusic that install in internal ROM as compare to one that install in external storage.

Just going to re-install everything onto my new TyTN. Can someone pls tell me what are the pros and con of installing progs onto the external microSD as opposed to the internal memory. I'm thinking that if we free as much internal memory as possible, progs should run faster.
just a few Progs I'm going to install:
Agenda fusion
SPB backup/Pocket Plus/Diary
Resco explorer
Pocket DIVX
Speed of the card is the main issue. I have a miniSD that does pretty good for installing apps on, but there's some things that it's just too slow. Depends on the app really. Generally speaking though, if I can live with it going slightly slower, I will install to miniSD, since I only use one card anyway.
If you swap cards frequently it is probably better to install the critical apps on the internal memory.
Re: What are the pros and cons of installing to external SD
Pros:
1. Have more space to install apps (I think that's the main reason)
Cons:
1. Apps won't work if card is taken off
2. If you install backup software to card, you won't be able to restore the backup file.
But in my case, I don't really interchage my mini SD card. I have 1GB and so far I've been using about 100MB where around 60MB is apps and the other 40MB is the overhead from the card and I install most apps to the card except Spb Pocket Plus

3. If you install an app to an SD card that is for example a today plugin - this could cause your device to hang as there is a slight delay in accessing storage cards when your device wakes up.

What is the internal storage used for? seems apps are entirely installed on the SDcard by default which loads up my 2gb card. I know the system files are on the internal but other than that it has 6.5gb of free space.
I guess my question is, is there any way to split application files so that only my data for the applications are on the SD and the program files are on the internal?
My apps are installed to my internal memory. Also I have my pictures set to be saved to internal. There is also an option in the browser to store downloaded files onto internal memory. I'm running stock 2.1.

Im curious, the specifications of the htc desire hd say it has only 1.5 GB of memory, whats the actual internal memory? im guessing those 1.5 gb they mention is just the available space to the user
to my knowledge, the 1.5GB is a flash memory (generally referred to as internal storage), and isnt suppose to used as if its a memory card to store videos and images, which is why they supply you with a 8GB sd card and why when without the sdcard, music and photos cant happen
I would guess that the 1.5GB is meant to be used to install apps and well, just system stuff, so that the OS can load it faster.
im more than positive that the internal storage is more than 1.5GB. It could be 2GB or 4GB (if i had to choose, i'd choose 2GB). But whatever it is; X-(Android OS and System data)=1.5GB.
This is what ive have been told (if im mistaken by any change, i apologize)
i installed Android version 2.2 everything working fine except internal memory i can't use internal memory in settings its show Available internal storage space 614MB.when i transfer any photos r mp3 via blue-tooth it asking memory card. where is my internal memory gone
Hi,
my friend bought a new ALTRON LTV5506 with AOSP 11 and the internal memory is poor (RAM 1.5GB, Memory 8GB). A lot of bloatware is already installed and can't be removed. Therefore is just ~2GB free for apps. The internal memory is immediately full due to thumbnails and temporary files.
The TV system is able to connect different formatted external devices for pictures and movies but is NOT able to use the external device for android apps in any way like:
For installed Osmand I would like to use an external memory for maps but it's impossible.
Also it's impossible to use the external memory for apps.
Is there any way (Root with Magisk or KingoRoot, etc.) to get access to the external device to extend the internal memory?
Could you please help me How To?
Cheers
