I really need some help from anyone that knows a solution? The t-mobile wing comes packed with a preinstalled Java application for running games. Although I load the games onto my Storage card when i install them it only allows me to install to the <root> folder the games run fine and all but I need to know how to get the games to run from my storage card and how to have them installed there i can't find them anywhere in the wings memory but I know it's taking up the little memory that I have on the wing. Help please?

My help files are taking up quita lot of RAM in my Windows folder - would they still work if placed on SD card, similar to how Memaid moves DLL's ??
I moved all help files to SD card and placed a shortcut of the help folder where it was and it works great.
.....
but why this work? with this solution i gain only 1,2 KB!!!!!!
I tried that... But I can't move all help files in \Windows dir. ( hidden files)
it says.. ROM is protected ( or something like that )
I got around 250 KB free .... not bad I guess...
but if I can remove all help files I'll get around 1 MB
do u have any idea :?:
anybody knows how to delete these read only help files!??
if they're ROM files then they're not taking any room that you can gain back unless you cook your own ROM without them.

wouldn´t I get more storage from the ROM?
not from the ROM - you can't shrink the rom except by making a new rom, which AFAIK isn't possible yet on Magician. Best bet for space is to use cabinst to install all programs to Storage/Storage Card, and use MemMaid etc to move many dlls to Storage, and use BigRom hack for extra space. That'll make you much more than a few k from the HTML files.

Already got bigstorage. MenMaid is worth a look. thx!

Great forum guys...already have had some fun modding my 8525.
I'm a convert, new to WinMo, been a Symbian supporter for 5+ years...so WinMo is new to me.
I have a noobish question. I've been loading ringtones, and .cab files onto my phone and seem to be running low on storage.
1. How do I tell how much space is left on my phone?
2. What files can I delete to make some room for important stuff?
I've searched the forum...but haven't found anything conclusive yet.
Thanks!

I can answer the easy question...
To find how much storage you have go to START\SETTINGS\SYSTEM\MEMORY then select the main/storage card tab.
If you're running out of memory you can try unlocking and unhiding the extended rom which should give give you a few extra MB's. Most of the cooked WM6 roms here include Schap's advanced config which will do this for you (or maybe it can be downloaded as a cab file).
As for deleting files - the only safe ones I know about are my data files, unused programs (via uninstal) or some ringtones or other sounds in the windows or windows\rings directory.
to check your memory go to start>settings>system>memory then on the bottom theres 3 tabs..Main, Storage Card, and Running Programs..
Under Main you have Storage and Program.. Program is your ram and storage is your device memory which you can install apps to. Go to running programs and you really should only have activesyn running (if you have an exchange account that is). Anything else open is eating up your ram and will cause your device to run slow.
Now on the bottom of the memory settings it says Find large files using storage memory. Click on find and you can remove whatever you don't want.. (i don't think it'll pull up system files in the search)
My advice is to only install critical apps and apps that will be running on your today screen onto the device itself.. everything else should be installed to yoru Storage card.
If you don't delete cabs after installing them, move them over to yur storage card if you want them for later reference but they shouldn't be taking up device memory after they're installed.
thanks for the input guys, already helping me out. I look forward to being a contributing member of the forums...I'm gonna check out the wiki and sticky threads in more detail to get all the info I can.
Thanks again
I tried to look at previous posts but could'nt find solution. Sorry if it is already discussed.
I purchased Telstra HD2 with US 830 3g band and then Hard SPLd it and flashed 1.66 Leo HTC Rom.
I have been now unable to locate or reinstall IGO8 navigation software from the microsd card. It was fine with telstra ROM.
I now do not have the ability to use windows marketplace.
Any programs that can I can install to further improve this beautiful phone?
Thanks.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Is that because the Windows Marketplace doesn't work, or because it isn't installed?
It started working!
I retried downloading and it worked!
Any ideas on the igo8 that is on my micro SD card?
Thanks
When you say you are unable to locate or reinstall IGO8 navigation software from the microsd card do you mean that its not on the storage card anymore or that you get an error when trying to install it?
Mark.
chances are you have the maps on the storage card and the program was integral with the rom your hd2 was using.. unless you can find it as a cab file i would say your not going to get it again.. you could always look at getting something like tomtom, garmin or co pilot.. there not real expensive but you could always get them through aternative sources if you know where to look!
as for ms marketplace, just re download the cab file, google marketplace and the link is easily available!
the file seems to be there on my microsd card. I eject and put it back in its slot expecting it to get reinstalled but that is not happening.
I guess I am a fool when it comes to finding stuff. I will truly appreciate if you can help.
Thanks.
I am a doctor, I'll give medical tips for free
Hey there, doctor here too. Make sure to get offline uptodate on your HD2! If you're lucky you'll be able to get it via the institution you work for....
igo auto installation works only when you have a folder in your storage card with the name 2577 and in that map a file called autorun.exe
if you have a folder with iGO8 on storage card ...see if there's a iGO.exe in it.
press on it and igo runs
HI first id like to say thanks to all the people who develloped this software for my blackstone its given my old phone a wonderfull lease of life.
I am new to this whole scene so if my question seems a little stupid please let me know.
I have the 2.2 Froyo version installed (I think) and all is working wonderfully apart from the camera but i never use that anyway oh and the ability to change wall paper just reverts the wallpaper back to the origional. but again thats not a problem.
But i have a question. Is it possible to install my apps to my sd card ? i want to try a few apps ive downloaded but im running out of space on my internal memory i would like to install apps to run of my sd like in winmo is this possible?
Any help would be much appreciated
And again thanks for this wonderfull software

I haven't tried this so don't know if it works on our blackstones, but apparently with 2.2 you can now move installed apps to your SD Card if the app has been written to support that feature. Read more - http://www.androidtapp.com/android-...-sd-card-feature-in-android-2-2-requires-you/
any updates on this? i tried to use the provided solutions but i lost the access to mai blackstone sdcard....
there is this free app on the market. search app 2 SD.
this will show what apps that can be moved to SD card.
Hi sorry for the late reply ive been busy.
I tried App 2 SD and it told me which apps i can move to my sd card, this is good but when you actually try to move the apps it tells me operation failed.
Its not a big problem i just thought it may help in memory use to have apps installed on the memory card like windows mobile.
The data.img is only 256mb and all your app's are stored in that file..If you want to expand the data.img to have more app you either have to do it yourself or modify the rootfs

after you install an app go to application management,select the installed application and there will be a button called move to sd
Hello all,
I love my 7105 but I have this HUGE problem with the CM nightlies I am using, the storage space is always to the max.
I have a 32g SD card and I can't install ANYTHING on it, I have a ton of games and they eat up all in the internal space
So I'd like a rom which allow me to either install the games or any program I want to the SD like it was possible on the older android versions, why the hell did google kill this great feature, I feel like I have an iphone when i get told it can't install or update because it's full.
Or if this is really not possible is there a possibility to mount some "internal" folder on the external sd card, i have tried folder mount to move real racing which is 3gigs by itself, it tells me all is done but the game is still on the inside card...
Thanks a lot for the help
