How to install apps on SD card on HTC Tattoo? - Click General

Hi,
I have downloaded an application named Apps2SD to my tattoo but the program seems to be not working. anyways, i did some search on the net and found out that you need 2 partitions on your sd card to do so. one partition fat32 one partition exFAT.
i couldnt partition my sd card... i cannot install apps on my sd card.. it installs only on the phone memory.. anyway to install apps on sd card? thanks.

I suggest you use a custom ROM that supports A2SD with no need for configuration. All you need is to partition your SD card in recovery (remember to backup all files first).

thanks for your reply. but i also wonder.. my tattoo is vodafone locked.. if this makes any difference?.. thanks again...

No it shouldn't

And one day i wants to install some apps in SD card, but doesnt now what to do first. i try to do something myself, but only thing that i do is split the SD card memory, and now some space from my sd card memory is not avaiable. Can so9meone can say what to do first... to install some apps in SD and install some unofficial 2.1 android version on tattoo.
P.S. - I am latvian and not know the English language perfectly, so maybe that is the reason because i dont understand what to do first...

Download AppMonster or Astro from the market. These will allow you to copy apks to your SD card. But note, you can't run apps from your SD card, you can only swap them in and out of memory.

Personal experience is that any SD card larger than 2gb will not instal new Rom's
Cards smaller than 2gb work fine.
Yours may be different but try and see. If you do not have a small SD card they are very cheap these days mate
thanks for your suggesion boss. i've tryed as you said,used an one gb sd card.but the result is same.what to do now? i need help.please somebody give me a solution.
thanks

as mentioned, ALL ROMs are capable of being flashed to a phone through SD Card. But since you are a new member, you might need to think of these:
1. did you have the correct filename of the nbh file inside your card?
it should be "BLACIMG.nbh" and must be placed at the root of your card.
2. do you know how to go to the bootloader mode(tri-color screen)?
phone off --> hold "voldown" and short press "power" button
it MUST be working.
thanks for your rep. sir, offcourse i know how to do that,i've tested most of the roms till april'10.last 3months i did not try any.but from till last few days i am trying to change my rom and non of them are working. i am using "xt grid evo", my redio is latest,i am taking rom into the root of my sd card,i am hard formating. but nothing works.
i don't know why,nobody knows why...
You have to rename the ROM image to "BLACIMG" before putting it onto your SD card. I use an 8GB card and have never had a problem.

I think i have a dodgy card because every time i try to use it on my pc it ask's to check for errors. I have done that several times, copied everything to and from the PC to format it and it still has problems. It works OK in the phone though so I just accept the status quo and flash from the smaller card. Going to upgrade soon so will probably get a new SD card then and see if my experience changes after that. Thanks for your help though

It should be renamed "BLACIMG.nbh" NOT "BLACIMG.NBH"
Note LARGE caps AND small caps
When you reboot the phone hold down the Volume down button until the bootloader shows then wait till it reads the card. Then press power button and it will start ti flash the new ROM
Good luck
sir,i know about cap & small matter. acutally i rename "BLACIMG.nbh" but not working....

i've also tryed in a 1gb card sir.anyway,no solution for my problem, bosses can close this thread.
thanks to all

From 2 years i flash only from the SD card and im with the default 8GB Sandisk that comes with the Phone when i bought it.
So like already many peoples say the answer is
ALL Roms can be flashed with the SD Card methood

You don`t need CWM, just MAGLDR. Then you can choose folder on SD card to boot your android.

in magldr set the sd card source folder to point to the /nativesd folder on the sd card, and set the default boot mode to ad sd. (yes, even though its booting from the ext partition, it finds the initial files in the folder on the sd fat32 partition).

You have to download the updates from the xda.
And regarding the applications, do u want to install them on the sd-ext partition?

I suppose u can move them manually to the sd-card, or select the directory for installation as the sd-card ( i think this is done in the play store settings, i dont really remember ). But why do you want to install apps in the sd-card?
I suggest u make an ext partition of your sd card. WARNING!: this will wipe ur sd card clean, make a backup!.
The advantage of making a ext partition is that when u use roms with A2SD support, the ext partition on ur SD CARD acts as internal memory. So u have sort of increased ur internal memory

Hi embunsorehari, and welcome to the forum.
If you have any problems please include in your post as much information as possible to allow others here to make a better informed guess at a solution eg hd2 type (Eu or Tmous), installation method (nand only, NativeSD etc), recovery version, SD card type, partition sizes (nand and SD) etc. The more info you give, the more likely it is for you to receive a helpful reply
Also, what do you mean by "change my sd card"?

Did you flash the rom or was it already on your phone?
And do you mean you take the sdcard which came with the phone out and you put in a new one?
