[Q] Storage Full message

Just flashed [EU/TMOUS][CWR] imilka's HD Sense Series v2.0 1.84[D2EXT][K:rafpigna 1.7 OC] on my hd2 which is an EU one. Had partitioned my 16GB sd card using MiniTool Partition Wizard, making 2 partitions i.e. about 11GB FAT32 and almost 4GB EXT2, both primary. Just copied the zip file of the ROM on my sd card and ran it through AD Recovery (400mb setup one, which is recommended with this ROM). Everything went smooth but after the installation, even if i run the browser i get the message: Storage Full..you dont have enough free space remaining in your phone's storage, whereas in Settings, SD&phone storage my Internal phone storage shows 3.52GB available. I also cannot install any new apps due to this problem.
Any help would be much appreciated.

its suggested not to use larger than 2gb ext partition

Had a same problem with my favorite Hyperdroid. After flashing i could not even receive any sms becaus they were rejected because of no space. And i did not have anything weired installed... I solved it by completly formatting again and tnen the whole prodcedure again.. Sorry but that was the only way that helped me;-) But actually i could not solve the prob itselve...

Thanks for your reply. Yes, mine is the same problem, can't even receive emails or browse the internet, the message keeps showing up. I'm ready to repeat the whole process by formmatting my sd card, but I have some simple questions (might sound a little naive as i'm new to flashing android):
1- Do I need to make only 2 partitions? Fat32 and an ext partitions?
2- Do I need to keep any other files on any of these partitions except the ROM before I start flashing through Recovery?
3- Do you also suggest, like Richy99 does, to keep the ext up to 2GB only?

just discovered answers to the above questions. Repeated the whole precess, repartitioned my sd card (this time 2gb ext), and finally got rid of that storage full message. There's a lag though...seems to be slow on my hd2. Moreover, I cant uninstall the apps that came with this. The uninstall button remains grey.

a) Use 1GB ext, NOT 2GB.
b) Lag is beacuse its a DHD rom, you need to wait for all the apps to sync or wait for OS to settle down. Let everything sync and then do a few reboots and wait some hours. Once everything has settled lag should be gone.
c) If you want to remove stuff use "System App Remover" from market.
d) Read your roms instructions properly.

[Q] After Deinstalling a SD-Android-ROM - how to clear memory

Hello,
I've installed a SD-Build of an Android-ROM (MDJ) for testing - but I need Windows Mobile for navigation (Navigon) too.
Now Navigon telling there not enough memory any more (only 15-30 MB than -I think- 160 MB before) - so I tried to deinstall/erase Android on SD-card.
But: The memory not becomes clear again, I do an hard reset , no success, I flash a new WM-RON (Artemis), but the monory is gone.
How can I bring back (locked) memory ?

Hi,
Before doing anything,backup your sd card to your pc/laptop.
You want to use a program like "G-Parted" (google).
You can use this program to delete partitions and formatting back to its original state.

Hello, thank you for helping ... but I think, memory is locked on internal phone memory not on sd card.
Greetings, ACHIM

Android on SD doesn't use internal memory ...so no need to uninstall or remove SD android...just make sure you do some tricks like installing gmaps on SD card and uninstall from int.mem. Gmaps cache consumes large space..also delete album cache from applications..uninstall gameloft games..they install on int.memory!...also search for posts which guide you in increasing internal memory from the hd2 Wm 6.5 section.
Since u are from Germany..I believe you have an EU HD2..be sure you have not flashed hspl on 3.14 Wm rom ..it can produce low memory

Hello,
before tried out android on HD2 I've used WM-6.5-build from Stenas 'Artemis 51' for month without problems. Problems comes 1 weeks ago after using SD-Android, suddenly not enough memory for WM 6.5, Navigon Navigation, HTC picture album, Opera etc. not works anymore. Tried hard reset and flashing Artemis 58, but no success, about 150 MByte of internal memory are gone.
Any help?
Greetings ACHIM

before I throw my hd2 into the wastebasket I've tried this:
there was SPL 1.42.HSPL on my device
so I've now installed
SPL 3.03.0000 (with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11499585&postcount=3)
and ...
my HD2 has over 150 MByte memory back.
Not understand why before trying SD-Android all is going fine and there was no problem - perhaps, because I've updated my Radio too ???!!!
Hope, now all problems gone ...

HD2 with Andro constantly hangs

The problem occured during using Android, I haven't tested it on WinMo yet.
I found similar post on forums, though it contained only a few posts.
So the problem is as follows:
When I run any demanding app, such as games (sometimes even contacts apps suffices) my phone does 2 things: either freezes or reboots (and then- freezes usually on lock screen, right after boot, most of times during "Preparing SD card" phase).
It is getting annoying, because now I can't use almost any power demanding app.
The problem started (firstly it occured rather small and not very often case) somewhere between switching from Mdeejay Rom after, You know, big brawl on forums, to Typhoon. And then I used cpu voltages script provided by Typhoon, even without overclocking device (only for battery saving). Yesterday I wiped every single part of data on the phone (formatting all disks, installing Clockwork again, not touching MAGLDR and HSPL and Radio though). Problem still occurs...
Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help

When you said you formatted, How do you do it exactly?
To properly do a clean install you need to....
Device:
Task29 HD2
Install MAGLDR
Install Partition
Card:
Get Panasonic SDFormatter
Full format>Overwrite
Size Adjustment ON
It sounds like either your device is corrupt or your card, Do a clean install and try a different rom if that doesnt solve it try another card, If that doesnt solve it get a new HD2.

Do you think that warranty covers such problem? And is there any possiility my provider will find out I used Andro after restoring WinMo, 'cause it voids my warranty.

[Q] Last Try ! I'm sick and tired...

I've got a HD2 just to try wp7. After some careful reading manages to install, and it was booting and used the basic features for couple of hours without any issues, until i wanted to try out maps,,,, The HD2 got stuck and went to a boot loop.
After checking so much for the one and a half day (I'm so tired and sleepy) i'm sick of this phone. I ve seen many posts regarding this issue, but no one seem to post a clear answer that rectifies the issue. Yes i've tried task 29 and gone back to wm 6.5 as well. Anything else i'm missing here.
If i keep the battery off for about 10 mins or so then it boots up properly, but not all the time. I cannot use any most of the features, only texting and calling. If anything else is launched (IE, People, A/C config...) goes back to the boot loop. WTF
Pls guys help me. well i'm a complete nOOb for this and sorry for the long post.

I am by no means an expert here, but have you tried a different SD card? When I first flashed my HD2, when WP7 was first available for it, my SD card was incompatible and it was constantly rebooting. Some SD cards are incompatible with WP7, even the ones that originally shipped with the HD2.

I know how you feel... that's exactly what happened to me. OMCA1A's right, Try a new SD Card and you should be good to go.

Which method you use ? Zune or 1 shot install
Did you have wp7 on hd2 before trying to install This rom? Was the sd card working?
Did you unlock/ reformat sd card or install straight over?

as already mentioned it can be the SD card and is most likely the SD card in your case, how you install it, cabs or zune or whatever doesnt make the slightest difference, anyone using any card that is not certified to work with WP7 stands the risk of running in to the restart issue.
it might not happen today, it might not be next month or even year, but potentially the restart issue can rear its head when xx% of storage space free is hit
i say xx because it could be anything from 1 -100.
Peronally i find that dumping a few hundred meg of music on gets past these dodgy areas, like just now, if i remove 12MB of data from my device it will start restarting, i can replicate this, if i do a reflash i have to install at least 200MB of music before doing anything, 600MB on top of that i get more restarts so dumped another 200MB of music, installed navigon, restart issues, install 50MB of music all fine again, that its a pain in the arse but its workable, it just means i have a lot of music i will never listen too on my device

Sorry I seriously gave up on my HD2 and was using my sisters old LG phone (Sucked big time ) Yes OMAC1A I have tried 4 different SD cards, so I doubt it’s the SD card.
Moschino02 What do u mean by Zune or one shot install ? I installed the normal way here are the steps I did.
Did task29
Installed latest radio
Installed MAGLDR
Then the wp7 ROM bu running a DWI.exe
Well after I got tired I did install it over and over and over. Yes the cards were working fine on my x10i
dazza9075 The SD I used was empty.
Also guys like I mentioned I only cannot use any of the smart phone features, if I get in to maps or IE or any other task which consumes a lot of CPU, it happens.
I will try one more SD card cos u guys insist and if it doesn’t I’m seriously gonna sell it off for scrap if u want let me know it’s gonna be dirt cheap I can’t tolerate this anymore.
Also one more thing guys, i've tried android as well, a 2.2 desire ROM and a MIUI ROM. Some times it gets stuck on start up it self or on the initial setup. That to me doesn't sound like a SD card issue.
Also it overheats

You tried with Sandisk class 4\6 SD cards, right? Cuz those are the only ones that have a decent chance of working.

Overheating of the HD2 is a common problem, saw many of these phones being sold on ebay with that problem...

I have the same problem... Still trying to fix it... But I know the problem comes when the phone tries to access the SD card (sandisk).

So after you install wp7 rom by running dwi.exe ( you mean v2native rom, right?)
What did you do? Did zune find updates to mango? Or did you install mango by sending cabs? What version are you on?

Moschino02 - Yes it says,
Name: HTC HD7 T9292
OS Version: 7.0.7392.0
Also i have tried other ROM as well, did not have any luck. Even at this very moment it goes through a boot loop. Just tried accessing HTC hub and it went off.
After installing sometimes it reboots or i have to manually do it by removing the battery or a by a soft reset. Yes zune finds updates but i cant update. When the rebooting point comes it never reboots to the OS just goes to a boot loop. *@#^&%$
I have used the following,
Verbatim 2GB micro SD
Unbranded 8 GB Micro SDHC
Kingmax 2GB Micro SD
Sandisk 4GB Micro SD
and none of them worked.
jinge - I dont think so. Initially i thought the same. And i removed my SD card to see but the problems kept continuing.
IF its a SD card incompatibility issue the HD2 should work fine with android. It boots only up to the initial start up screen doesn't go beyond that. MIUI is the closest i got but that too gave problems.
I'm seriously sick of the hd2 guys and i hate it i wish i could show it to you'll.
This has to be a hardware fault. IS IT ????????

Whole CoreDroid1.7 is crashing on HD2

Hello there,
first of all excuse me if some of my phrases are wrong....
I use CoreDroid 1.7 NAND on my HTC HD2
I installed it normally and i worked 1 month with it everything okay till today.
I downloaded some apps etc...
after a day i opened a game and it didnt start (black scrreen) i wait for more than 5 minutes but nothing happen so i put out the Battery of my phone.
After i switched it on The First screen of CoreDroid appears. It asked what my provider is etc.. the normal questions and than it sets up the phone again.
After this i saw all my App are missing.
If i check with the Filemanager the Apps are still in Folders.
my contacts are gone. i had to connect with Internet on my HTC account to gett'em back.
And very important : there is a Message on my Phone :
=> Storage is almost full make sure that your phone has more than 512KB free space <=
THis is happening the 2nd time now. Last time i deleted anyway all to upgrade to 1.7 But this time i dont want to loose all my settings.
I hope i could describe my Problem well....
Also some informations for a better solution:
- Everytime i rebott it the first screen appears.
- On Settings my SD card appears.
- Message: Storage almost full.
I dont think the SD card is OutofOrder cuz it is shown there Free space etc ...
i use an 8GB SD card.
Thank you, i appreciate any help and if someone can ask others please do it i ust need my phone asap .
Thank you guys.

Oh Cmon Guys, please help me has someone connections to Sergio . ???

I don't know itf it will help, as I'm no user of this particular distribution. Here's some generic solutions:
- Coredroid seems a big build, so it would be advisable if you create an ext partition in your SD. You can do that from the recovery app or rom manager. Usually a 1GB partition is more than enough. Be aware that this procedure will erase your SD card, so backup!
- Try to make a clean flash of your phone. Task29 to flip the bits to 0, proper repartition, etc... Before, that meant to download 3 or 4 separate apps but nowadays you can do that from a single tool. Search for HD2 Toolkit in the NAND Forums.
- While doing the clean repartition, make sure to follow the needed requirements of your particular distro. Coredroid (as most sense builds) doesn't seem to follow the standard 150 partition, and it may not fit there.
Hope it helps.

Hey thanks for ur help, i already have installed my CoreDroid on an ext partition. and Flashed with Task29 after 1 week the problems discribed came.
