how to install apps and run from sd?

Heya..
I copied all my apps to my sd card...but im wondering how I can install and run the apps from the sd so they arnt in phone memory?
Can't find any info on this >_< i mite just suck as searching though
Thanks in advance
/bump
anyone?
depends, if you have root, and if your on the T-mobile G1 or the Rogers HTC.
you should read up a bit more before posting, some of this stuff can be found very easily and you don't even specify which phone you have.
either case you still need to root your phone.
if your with rogers dream, than your stuck, it isn't possible yet
oh sorry.
i have a rogers htc dream rooted...so its nto possible? darn, any idea when it mite be available?

hmm...didn't know it wasn't possible on the Rogers. I figured he could just root, partition and install the latest Cyanogen ROM
if you can install cyanogen's rom, you can just partition your sdcard to ext3 and cyans rom will automatically set up apps to sd
make sure the fat partition comes first
fat32, ext3 partition
make sure the ext3 partition isnt greater than 1.5gb
use the search function for info on the above
i read you can't use cynaogens roms on rogers though..something about incompatability?

[Q] Some general advice/help needed

Hey guys,
New to these forums so a big hello from me!
I just have a few questions I would like to ask. I got myself an EU HD2 that had MIUI installed - I didnt like this so flashed it back to windows 6.5
I would like to install the Energy rom with HTC Sense so here are my questions..
When it says "EU needs CWR 5/210/5 is the minimum requirement with a 1GB ext2/3/4 partition on sdcard." What does this mean and how do I do it? I mean like what tools do I use? I did this through Clockwork Mod for the 1GB thingy but I have a feeling I am doing it wrong. What steps am I missing?
I manage to install it but it just gets stuck at the bootscreen, this is the same for any rom I install so I am guessing I am doing something wrong which I believe is the 2/210/5 bit. I have no idea what this is - would someone be kind enough to explain it to me and teach me what to do?
I have looked about the forums for a solution but I cant seem to find any guide that details how to do that 2/210/5 part.
Any help would be appreciated!
5 Meg boot partition ( default, you can ignore this)
210 system partition
5meg cache partition. You set these during flashing of cwm,,, use the "nand toolkit", select 210 on the left, put 5 in the cache box, and click repartition.
Yes use cwm to set the SD ext 1gb.
I've written a guide, its about how to install cLk but thhe first few paragraphs are about the layouts like you just mentioned. It may help you some.

[Q] Only 1 ext3/4 sd-card partiton

Hello,
Can i use only one ext3/4 sd-card partiton as default ? (For music, images etc..)
I'm using Hyperion 7.x rom..
P.S: Sorry for my english.
Hi bro, you have to search for things before asking such questions.
First of all we do partition not for storing your pictures or songs. It is to expand phone memory with a2sd,link2sd or data to sd for applications.. we can make swap partition for increasing ram memory. if you want dual boot, then make extra partitions, otherwise one partition of ext3 or 4 and one swap partition (if you need it) is just enough.
Go to stickies in general thread, you will get nice tutorials about partitioning
