Hi all guys.
It's possible to increase internal storage on HD2??
Total space is 281 MB. Right now i have 20 MB. T T
Anyone suggest?
Thank advance.
Wath build or rom give you this free memory, try app2sd then uninstall some apps
Personnly 30 apps install with 190 mb free under android. All apps are in sf ext partition. Search on forum
Send from my hd2 Under android By Mdj build.
If you want more storage, you have to either buy a t-mous version or make a partition on your SD card and using a2sd. That will save the applications to your memory card.

Yes. Try a rom that has data2ext. It uses secondary ext2/ext3/ext4 partitions to store internal data.

I have a freshly installed Stock Desire (cotulla's one). I installed it without a secondary ext partition and after install I had about ~50mb left on internal storage.
I installed apps2sd and moved what I could on sd card. However I also installed Igo and some other apps that only want to remain on internal storage. Now I have 2 mb left.
Desperately, I used qtadb to delete the default crap from /system/app/, that htc sense comes with. ( Friend stream, news widgets, etc)
After deleting them and rebooting, they don't apear in qtadb anymore but I still have the same amount of free space left.
What can I do next?
PS: It seems it's not rooted. I now have rooted it with z4root.
Sorry to bump this but I am confused. If I have 512 mb of NAND space, how come this 134 mb rom leaved me with 40 mb free?
I compared Desire and HD2 and they are listed to have the same amount of NAND space. So taking a desire rom replica into hd2 should work the same.
Anyone?

Sorry to bring up that thread.
Is there a solution for the problem?
I think that Cortullas stock rom is one of the smoothest Froyo builds.
Works like a charm. But like nemuro i also missed creating a ext. partition.
these days i only have 20mb free.
Is there a way to create an ext. partition afterwards, without reinstalling the whole system?
Thanks for your help...
hi guys ,
i have a 16 gb sandisk class 4 sdhc card and currently i am using rom HYPERDROID GBX V12 by pongster .
before installing the rom through clockwork mod recovery , i partitioned the sd card with 1024 size and 0 swap size.
but my internal storage is only showing 257 Mb
and after installing a few apps, my internal storage has become low ,
is there any way to virtually increase the internal storage by utilising the SD card storage???
can this be done without formatting the phone or the ROM ,ie.,without losing data ??
HELP APPRECIATED.
THANK YOU.
Try rebooting and seeing if that helps if using an a2sd based rom

no it did not work that way...
You could partition your sd card, adding an ext2,3 or 4 partition and install DarkTremor's A2SD script. Then your apps will be installed into your ext partition on your card instead of in your phone's memory. And using the A2SD GUI app from the Android market, you can put your dalvik-cache to the partition, and do some other cool stuff. If you cant find DT's A2SD script by searching for it, I can attach the working version that I have to this post when I get home.
Edit: Attached a good working version. Flash it via CWM, after you allocate an ext4 partition (1 gb is a good size) on your sd card.

1. In CWM Recovery, under 'Advanced', theres an option to partition your sd card.
2. By partitioning your card, you are allocating an amount of space to be used as an ext2/3/4 partition. Doesn't really matter which you use, but ext4 is said to give the best performance. I'm pretty sure CWM creates an ext4.
3.By moving all your installed apps to the sd partition, you are freeing up internal storage in your phone. I have hundreds of apps installed, my phone has 650mb internal storage available, runs smooth as butter, and I still have half of my 1gb partition free.
Thanks i did the partition and installed an app called " modinstall" by mskip and now all my apps by default install in sd card
But why is my internall storage only 270 mb by default without any apps in it??

Do you have a EU HD2, or a TMOUS one? The European ones have far less ROM space. You could try a smaller system partition by modifying the flash.cfg file in the folder which you flash CWM from, just do a nandroid backup in CWM first, then restore it into your new smaller system partition after re-flashing CWM with the smaller system partition. I wouldn't go any smaller than 150 mb for a non-Sense ROM, if you go too small then your ROM won't boot up, or will have too little room to run comfortably. But too large a system partition will just waste internal storage space.
But if all your apps are getting installed to your partition by default, 200+ mb is more than enough internal storage for your phone to run nice and smooth. But that's also why I recommend DT's A2SD script, because not only does it move all your apps to the partition, but your dalvik-cache too (anywhere from 30-75 mb) and with the A2SD GUI app, it's easy to do more to make your phone run smooth, like enabling zipalign at bootup.
I have an EU hd2 now i hav installed the zip file of apps2sd u hav attatched in ur reply
I hav downloaded an application apps 2 sd from market to move phone apps to sd ut the only issue is that
Now after moving to sd , a few apps like angry birds, glow hockey and many other games or apps give an error and force closes but when these apps are moved back to phone they run smoothly !!
Why is that that these few apps are not running in sd card???

Though my apps are getting installed in sd card by default but many of the apps do not run unless they are moved to phone's memory !!!
Is there any solution???
I really prefer this method by which my apps are installing in sd card by default but how can i avoid the force close errors in some of the apps ??? Eg - angry birds
Thank you

The partition won't increase the amount of internal storage that shows up in Settings/Storage
Your phone will still tell you how much actual internal storage you have left, not how much is free in your partition.
You can see how much of the partition is used from Titanium Backup though

Your internal memory should be 220 - 280 mb. You have an european hd2, which means that you have little bit more than 500 mb of internal memory. You flash android + partitioning cwm, that uses your internal memory too.
Are you using a sense rom?
if you are using a AOSP rom, use tthe 150/5 partition. You will have atleast 240 mb of internal memory.
check this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954369
it shows 860mb internal memory...please suggest how to get it....
On a fresh install with no apps downloaded/installed, on a TMOUS HD2, with a 130mb system partition, 860 mb of free space sounds about right.
On your Euro HD2, never gonna happen.
But when you use A2SD, you don't have to worry about your internal memory space, because the apps are not getting installed there. So you can install a ton of apps and your internal memory will only go down very slightly.
The way to check how much room you have left for apps when using A2SD is to use Titanium Backup to view your used/free space on your ext partition.
I have hundreds of apps installed in my ext3, my internal memory has gone down a total of like 5-10mb from what it was when I first flashed the ROM, and my phone still runs smooth as butter. If you have A2SD installed, Settings/Storage/Internal Memory doesn't mean much.
thankyou

Somewhat of a newb....I'm trying to flash Runnymed Android 2.3.5 with Sense 3.5....what's the best partition to use and how do i do it in the Repartition tool within the HD2 Toolkit?
Thanks,

I have installed MIUI.us-Leo-2.4.27-HWA.ZIP in to my HTC HD2. Everything is working fine except Camera and phones internal memory is very low, only 25MB resulting cannot update any existing applications.
My phones total internal memory memory is 151MB and available is only 25MB.
SD card total space is 15GB and available is 9GB which is fine.
Total downloaded applications are 26 only, so it is not that I have too many application downloaded.
I moved most of the downloaded and other applications to SD card by using titanium backup. Few could not be moved for unknown reason as it does not give me option to move.
Can anyone please help me to increase my internal memory to at least at 70 or 60MB please.
Would appreciate your help.

i have used a few MIUI roms & did not have that problem
what is the data.img that you used?
are you using NAND rom? in that case what was the size of the partition you used, did you follow the recommended size?

Yes, it is NAND ROM. The recommended partition was above 200mb and I used 250mb, so it was okay.
All I need to increase my internal space at least to 60 or 70mb so that application update can be done.
Many thanks
The ROM suggested 200, but you installed 250. You just lost 50 worth o internal storage.
You'll need to install an A2SD script, in order to be able to use your sd card as an internal storage. (of course, after making an ext2 partition )

Marvlesz, I looked for 200MB partition but could not find anywhere. That's why I installed 250MB. There are only 3 options they gave which is 150MB, 250MB & 400MB. Please suggest me in details how I would be able to do ext2 or ext4 using A2SD
Hi all,
Just after installing custom rom aokp on my phone, the /system was showing free space of 4 mb only (w/o installation of any additional apps). To install Google Now , there should be free space of atleast 90mb on /system.
Therefore, in a bid to increase the space, i got a 2gb external card. In one of the articles on net, it showed increasing the space on sd card (through SD card partitioning via Rom Manager). I though that this would make my EXT-SD a part of the internal storage and help increase the space on /system. However, after following the procedure, the space on my internal storage reduced from 1.7 gb to 480 mb while USB storage increased from 5.7 gb to 7.4 gb.While it did nothing to the EXT-SD.
Now can anyone please tell me a way to Reverse it and also how to increase the space on /system to install Google Now.
Apart from this i tried APP2SD to make space on internal storage (as it mentions "MOVE TO EXTERNAL SD") it also does not move the apps to EXT-SD, rather it moves to USB Storage w/o creating space on /system.
Please help.
