[Q] No free memory on HD2 - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hello,
I have a problem with my HD2 Android phone. I have installed Android on NAND. Everything works fine, but I can't install apps because I don't have any memory left. I have just installed 2 apps . If I want to play music, I have to delete all the Youtube data first.
I had tried an other Android NAND version before this one, but it froze at startup. I just installed a other NAND version and it works, but I did not delete the other version. Maybe that the problem? Can anybody help me out?
Thanks,
Wouter

what rom are you currently using?

I am using HTC Runnymede

I recommemd to you making ext4 format on your SD
Data will move to ext4 if rom support to D2Ext

Did u partitioned memory card?

I don't know what that means. I am not really technical...
I don't know of it is partitioned. Is there a way to check it?
Thanks

This is the link for the instructions on how to properly install Android on NAND on HD2. I would start from scratch, making sure that you don't skip anything. With a little creative Googling, I was able to find a file called the 'HD2 Toolkit' that gave me all of the programs that I needed to follow the tutorial easily, and make the proper adjustments to my SDCard. Also, using App2SD is a VERY good idea. Although I personally did not run into the same issues that you are having, it seems to me that you've skipped a step somewhere. Good luck!

To add to the above post, yea using ap2sd IS a good idea, most roms support it or a variant of it automatically,,,if they find an ext partition they will use it, so don't go thinking you need to install and configure it, its all automatic.

First time it did not boot. Lets try it again...

Yes! I got it working with RUNNYMEDE 1.11.1113.1 - Sense 3.5 [v2.1][HierOS 1.8.5 noBTfix-2wcr. I will install App2SD and see what it does.
Thank you all for your help!!

Hi. I've got MIUI build 111250 of Android 237, using MagLdr 1.13 and HD2 Toolkit. Despite the options in the HD2 Toolkit to increase the memory on the system partiton, I just can't get all of that memory. I think the best I got was about 300MB. Yes I use Apps2SD... thank God, but I've run out again and wish I could access that last 200MB. Can anyone advise on this?

BTW. I don't want To dual boot to Windows at all. Is there some way/requirement for deleting the Windows partiton? I've already done a wipe before doing the repartition.

dont forget your system partition,. boot partition, cache partition, recovery partition dont show on teh total internal space. only the data partition counts towards it, so that 200 meg you mentioned will be those other partitions.

Hi, guys,
I can't post in the dev forums, so I'm posting here.
I've just flashed the ICS rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354267 on my HD2 and I've left 42 MB of space.
From my experience with my other phone, a Desire, that'll be gone in like a week, event if I don't install big apps, just the basics like Facebook, some data these apps store and so on.
Bottom line, I've formated my SD with an ext4 partition, but I was wondering which Apps2SD app is supported by ICS, as I've tried a few and none worked.
Thanks.
PS: and of course, the most crucial part is that I can't install Field Runners, because the market app says I don't have enough space.

[Q] HTC BLISS - WWE SENSE 3.5 FOR HD2 [v1.1]

Hello everybody
I have to post here because I can't in NAND development...
This is a general question, but I post the title of the Bliss sense 3.5 rom because I actually have this...
This is a great rom , but I have 2 problems with my EU 512mb HD2...
The first, and very important, is the room left... Looking with Apps2sdgui those are my general info:
internal memory free(total): 25mb(206mb)
sd-ext free(total): 1392mb(1830mb)
cache free(total): 25mb(206mb)
So, what can I exactly delete using root explorer? Can you explain me please what exactly apps2sdgui does? I haven't understood its function, because my internal memory is full though Apps2sdgui says "apps are on SD"...
The second is the available ram... I have max 60/70mb free, according to Apps2sdgui... Sometimes, when switch from an app to another, I see the white screen with the htc green word in the middle for a 10-15 seconds... What can I do to make my phone faster and more fluid?
You do not have to delete anything using root explorer, and your apps seems to be in your SD card's EXT partition. Your cache seems poetry high though- not much you can do without backing up, repartitioning and restoring.
The free memory seems ok, though not great. Sense 3.5 builds are still being developed and are not stable yet. The HTC logo that flashes by is your Android rebooting.
If you prefer stability, choose an AOSP or CM7 build...

Stuck on Quitely briliant screen
Hi
I have tried flashing this rom through CLW and everything goes well until the device reboots. it gets stuck on the Quietly brilliant screen. I left it run for 30 minutes with no luck of actually booting the system.
I have noticed when i pull my battery out and mount the device nothing is created on the SD card (no folders or files).
I have a 3 GB SD card and I have partitioned it through AD recovery with 2GB and 0 swap EXT partition.
I flashed MYUI again since i was using it before but i would really like to try your Sense Rom on my HD2 (T-Mobile).
Am I missing something? I have to say that I also tried using other Sense Roms and got the same problem. stuck on the HTC green screen or the Quietly brilliant screen and my system never loads!
Thanks for you help and keep up the good work.

Hey,
Thanks for the reply. I am not really sure I have done CWR partition. All I have done is SD partition to 2GB and 0 swap since I have always used MIUI Roms on my HD2 and before I had WM7 and stock Roms.
If CWR partition is needed for this rom how do u do that?

Because this ROM very big so it need use many NAND space and SD-EXT Partition to store sytem and app.
App was moved to EXT partition but Dalvik cache still on NAND so you can move Dalvik cache to EXT to save more Internal memory (when you move Dalvik to EXT, you will have about 150-200 Mb free on NAND)

If you already have magldr, this is what you have to do:
1. flash recovery. this is the link: http://www.mediafire.com/?f81pamq6fbjmtw5
(I've found this link here in the forum)
download it, then you have to modify this file: flash.cfg
you have to open it with notepad, but put an eye on NOT change permanently the extension ( it's .cfg, have to be .cfg)
once you opened it, you have to modify like that:
misc ya 1M
recovery rrecov|ro|nospr filesize recovery-raw.img
boot yboot|ro 5M
system ya 440M
cache ya 5M
userdata ya|asize|hr allsize
-my english is not very good, if you don't understand PLEASE tell me and I'll explain it again-
save the changes, then go to magldr menu, connect phone to pc, search in your phone in magldr menu "usb flasher", run DAF.exe in recovery folder on pc, follow the guide. Your phone will reboot and go to magldr menu.
Choose "ad recovery".
2.wipe full data, and dalvik cache
3. flash rom: in ad recovery, choose "install zip from sd card", and select your rom
4. reboot
If someting goes wrong, please tell me

You're welcome ( is this the way to say this?)
Yes of course, you can always change rom
If you want to change to miui, cm7 and so on, you only have to change cwr version to v3.0.2.5 or else ( it's written in rom thread )...
if you want to change recovery partition, you only have to use notepad again and run daf.exe again... I think it's quite simple...
Please tell me the result

Just tried it. It looks amazing and exactly as I expected.
Only one thing that I don't like is that it is very choppy! as in when u click on something it takes few seconds to load or when u switch screens there is a lag or a drag as if there is not enough memory to run the command.
Anyway we can tweak the settings of the recovery to make it faster?

Yes, I experience it too... If you read my whole thread, I asked for some solution, but I think there aren't... Sense-based roms are slowlier than non-sense, hd2's hardware is perhaps a bit too old, but this is only my opinion... Have you read the thread in Nand development? I've tried some sense 3.0 rom, but I can say with no doubt this is the fastest...
This is the 1.1 release, next update will probably be better in speed... And I hope in camera and bluetooth fix as soon as possible... I'm pretty satisfied, for maximum sense experience, I think we should buy sensation, evo or other younger htc
You can try deleting some apps, if you don't use them, and look at task manager, it helps you stopping background apps, that can free ram memory...
Which kernel do you use? Most of people wrote in rom thread in nand development that jw-tytung is faster, and I confirm... All these things will help you, this is my opinion...
Hey there,
i'm using the HTC Bliss Rom for 2 days now and i think it's really great, but i have one problem, and it is significant. Everytime the display goes in standby-mode the connection gets lost. Even when i call somebody and put the phone to my ear, the connection breaks up immediately when the display turns itself off.
I really want to keep this rom, so please can somebody help me

[Q] A2SD+ not working

Hi,
Sorry if this question gets posted too many times but I am downloaded [12-Sep-201][MAG/cLK][CWM] NDT GINGER V16.0 [CM Nightly 2.3.5][Kernel: Tytung r12] which states A2SD+ is in list of features (and I think this is supposed to use my 1gb ext3 partition as internal memory) but I only have 153mb after installing a few small apps. I know my old rom gave me about 900mb free, and am lost as to how to fix this.
Any help would be great.
Many thanks.
But your SD card got a sd-ext partition?
Try to use "s2e" from the market to enable your sd-ext partition.
i've tried it on the desire of my girlfriend and it works... it is still working
Im having same problem over multiple roms using hyperdroid a2sd+ seems to work fime but tried the experia arc rom and another and both have no a2sd+ although chefs both say its supported
I have totally wiped phone and sd card re-partitioned and formated
i have a 1gb ext3 partition but using a2sdgui gives error saying a2sd script not found or ext partition not found when i do in fact have one ?
You guys could always try flashing A2SD to the ROM from CWM recovery. Just do a forum search for Darktremor A2SD
Use the 2nd to most recent version, the most recent has never worked for me
If you can't find it, let me know and I'll attach it in a post on this thread.
Edit: Got bored and came back and attached it. Just flash it via CWM
thanks very much m8 ill give it a whirl
forgot to mention, after you flash it, go into terminal emulator and enter: a2sd reinstall
it should say a bunch of stuff, then reboot. then it'll take a long time to boot up cause it's moving everything to your ext3 partition and creating symlinks
app2sd is working fine with me.. i have only one issue.. all those apps shifted to ext partition, are auto starting up and i cant disable them!!! i used most of apps that used to block startup apps. but those in ext partition keep showing up and slow down starting up of the device! any idea???

Nand problem

Hi
During more than year of my "android on hd2 experience" I've had no problems at all. To be honest i became quite handy on this field.
recently I was using two roms daily HyperDroid-CM7 and testing NexusHD2-IceCreamSandwich Beta.
on NexusHD2 rom i install Data2SDInstaller.
and my problem started when I wanted to go back to HyperDroid.
boot animation stuck, of course i tried clk / magdlr different partition sizes always task29...without any effects. Now I tried NexusHD2 ICS 4.0.3 CM9 V1.0 , finally went through boot animation,when i saw Setup Wizard the messages appear immediately: "Unfortunetly, the process ....... has stopped" and when I click OK appears next and the next message , such as contacts, Email, calendar, etc. i thing all of the possible .. later message: Setup Wizard not responding.
And it happens on magdlr/300/5
I've read already about bad NAND blocks, and in recovery.log I did not detect any of them
I tried to run MTTY but I have a problem with drivers win7x64: - /
Does anyone know what's wrong with my HD2 and how to solve it.
you remembered to wipe the sd-ext partition and .android folder (cwm - wipe data / factory reset) right?
there are folders on both sd-ext and on the fat32 partition that will screw with new installs.

Like he said, you need to wipe your sd card, ext and fat32. Both parts. This is majorly important since you used Apps 2SD!!
Another thing, I think your system size is way off. 200/5 for cLK if not 180/5 and for magldr probably like 200/44 but at least 10mb of cache..
I'm not too sure if this will help or not but this is my experience.
I have been on these forums for a while and using Hyperdroid for quite some time now as well. The reason why I do not have any posts on this account is because I switched over just today, my old account was imarte068.
When trying to update my Hyperdroid the other day through magdlr I encountered an issue. No matter the partition size or sd-card, it always managed to get stuck on boot. I got frustrated and attempted to re-flash countless times. After many attempts I gave up and just used an MIUI rom.
Several days later I devoted myself to solving the issue. After about an hour or so of trial and error I fixed it. I simply re-flashed the kernel after the installation of the rom. I am using magdlr therefore I do not know if the process will be the same for clk.
Hope I could be of help.
I thought it was a sdcard and i delete all partition and make it new.
I do always full wipe and dalvic...

Try re-flashing the kernel as I said in the post above.
Link to kernel here.
Hope I could be of help.
This may spur some argument, but in my experience task 29 is the key if you're having problems. many people say wipe with cwm the system boot davlik cache, etc but in my testing when I'm having a problem and need to solve it task 29 has been the answer almost everytime. Partition size is huge as well. Another thing if you were using apps2 SD on ics it was bugged. Without formatting your SD it is possible that it could bug your system.

Im using 220 with 5mb cache. ICS running smooth without any problems. And no need to fully wipe sdcard. Would be stupid to delete the whole card just for flashing a new rom hehe. Its enough to wipe the (dalvik) cache and sd-ext partition via CWM.
For data2sd use the 'how to' from post #207 and the flashable file from post #174 in tytungs ics cm9 v1 thread. I think it removes old app2sd or data2sd scripts. Worked without any formatting of my sdcard.. works like a charm.
Btw.. ever tried to fix permissions? First thing you should try if you get FC.
Just do (re)install the rom like the guy in post #207 described but with the file from #174 (40ad2sdx-a2Recovery.zip)
And im using my hd2 now for more then one year. NEVER used task29.

As I said people will disagree. I will say that in most cases you're right though, wiping the davlik cache is enough. I am just saying from my personal experience there are sometimes when it isn't (at least on my phone). I'm not trying to start an argument, I just want to help him.

big thanks mates for advice.
So far I haven't had time for it but for sure tomorrow or on the weekend, I will deal with this and I will let you know how it goes.
In brief I run ICS all fine, but HyperDroid not starting.
Here is how i try:
________
Ok I was using WP7 and whats I made:
SD card: I delete all partition, I make only one Fat32 than in CWM I made ext partition.
Task29 > Clk 200/5 > recovery > install HyperDroid-CM7-v5.7.0 > And here phone stuck before boot animation, only white android robo > then as flamgodian advice I install kernel thins. > Same without boot animation.
Second try
Task29>clk 220/5>recovery>wipe(all possible)>install HyperDroid-CM7-v5.7.0>same robo>fix permision> install kernel this> I saw robo for 10s and phone self reboot after reboot > stuck :/
I have not seen even the boot animation.
Task29>clk 220/5>recovery>wipe(all possible)>install NexusHD2-ICS-CM9>Kernel>
He goes
__
I make like redplate(Big Thanks) write with installation 40ad2sdx, and everything runs great.
I will stay with ICS but it is strange why my phone doesn't like HyperDroid Rom.
And from here I would like to thank you all for advice.

[Q] i need some help with my htc hd2 with android software

hi all , well am new here and first of all wanna say hello
lets get into subject well ive installed many roms from here on my device and till now i have the same problems
but yesterday i installed gingerbread -3.2 from someone in this form and i thank him allot but every time i wanna install an apk approx greater than ten mgb i get "error parsing package" and that is the first problem i had always encounter since i installed android but now i have noticed that i can normally install apps approx less than 10 mgb so i really need your help with that please
the other problem is tat after some time when i install some applications and i restart my phone i realize that some applications have been deleted from my device menu when i enter app manager i can see a part of it but i can see that it is damaged please note that this also happens with applications downloaded from the net please help me with those 2 problems cause i am really devastated cause of them and thnx for reading this post :good:
it helps when you tell us WHICH rom you are currently using, and also whether or not you are using it with an a2sd (ext partition) script.

i am using the ginger bread nexus hd2 rom but what is a2sd spript i didnt understand that but if it helps am using the nand
Never mind about a2sd, you would know if you had installed it and as far as I know it's obsolete anyway.
It might be coincidence, but I have similiar problem with 40ad2sdx-a2Recovery.zip and PARANOID ANDROID LEO BETA V2.00.
Rather big apps like firefox or chrome cannot be installed (error 492). smaller apps work.
Also the process android.process.media crashes when I try to install bigger apps.
I should have plenty of memory left as ext partition has 1gb size. 588mb are diplayed as available.

I followed the steps suggested in this thread but it didn't change anything,
after about 13mb the download stops
Okey this is odd, I just installed titanium backup, because I thought that a full backup and wipe might help.
Here's what titanium says in the main menu:
system-Rom: 262MB (115mb free)
Internal: 959mb (661mb free) {I thought nand size is 512mb? Or is this my ext-partition?}
SD-card 14.8gb (14.3gb free)
SD-card (A2SD): 158mb (6.09mb free) {no good, my ext partition should have 1gb, or is this the internal memory? Why is it almost full?}
its the script you are using, rather than simply moving stuff to the ext (which it still does) and creating symbolic links, at boot it mounts the sd-ext partition as the systems data partition, and the internal data partition gets mounted as the sd-ext partition, so android sees them swapped over. Result = 'internal' shows the actual ext size, and the sd-ext a2sd shows teh internal data partition size.
As to why there is data on both the ext and the internal, , again, depends on the script, , the one i use moves only the apps and dalvik cache to the ext, so they show up under the /data/ in a file manager, but the other stuff (user data, txts and such i assume) remains on the internal and can be seen under /sd-ext/ in a file manager, whereas other scripts move the entire /data/ to sd-ext, in which case tehre should be very little in the internal data partition.
(Thats probably only a partially correct, over simplified explanation, i don't really know the mechanics of it, but i did notice exactly the same recently, and the maths works out too)
The script, that I used, left a 100mb dalvik-cache folder in sd-ext. How can I move this to the real sd-card?

It also appears that you have an overly large partition size for your ROM. I'm guessing that your /system partition was supposed to be 150MB but yours is 262MB You're basically wasting 115MB of potential storage. I'm not sure if you somehow accidentally created a bigger partition or if you did it intentionally so that you can flash different ROMs without worrying about repartitioning, but if you want it to be as efficient as possible then you should reduce the /system partition.
Ok so i have to repartition and format. I can do that when I need to wipe for a new rom update.

@zerocool9x Maybe you don't have enough free space. More details could make it easier to find a solution for your problem.

I use the Typhoon rom too. And used it without flashing anything else for about 4 months :laugh:.
Anyways, this rom already comes with an a2sd script. U dont need link2sd. The default script in the rom mounts the ext partition. I suggest u uninstall link2sd, and try rebooting. But i think people will probably have better suggestions

And wait a minute, you partitioned ur sd card Twice? once with the recovery, then with the minitool partition wizard?
