app2sd on samsung vibrant ??

hello friends
happy christmas 2 all of u
hope u people are fine
i am comming from htc hero g2 there we have a app2sd where in all the application are saved to sd card... i am using samsung vibrant from last 5 months and now since i have installed lots of games and apps . i have a query that is there any limitation for installing the apps (apart from internal memory)
is there any way or tip to increase the size of data folder
Nah dude okay the reason those 1st gen phones have it is because they only had like 150 mb of storage where as the vibrant has over a gigabyte of storage. In froyo it does it but I miss the rooted style
I had a g1 with 350 apps at one time and it ran smooth
But the vibrant gets slower since it os using internal and not external
Too bad there are no roms that support apps2sd rooted but you can always download an app

[Q] HD2 Replacement

I have been running wih my HD2 for 3 years now with WM6.5x on orange in the UK& various OS upgrades from members here ......
Looking for a suitable replacement that is not an Iphone all suugestions welcome
Many Thanks in Advance
why replace?
I recomed you just install any os you like WP7 or Andoriod GB? read inside on how to do so. HD2 hardware is magnificient can run anything.
As recommended try any nand build, I use the coreDroid 1.7 its fast very stable and easy to use, the best bit is that its very well supported with Guys who are willing to go the last mile to help you set it up and iron out any issues
Definitely worth putting either a WM7.5 or Droid ROM on and waiting until early next year when quite a few new devices will be out running Android 4.0. I'm amazed you have been running one for 3 years! It was only released in UK pretty much 2 years ago to the day. ;-)
The same position
Hi guys,
I'm running my Rolls-Royce from almost 2 years and I'm wondering which next device will be as good as this one and with the same possibilities...
All we know the HTC Sensation or Samsung SII are not revolutionary as our HTC HD2 was 2 years ago.
How much time we have to wait to see 1.5-2 MHz processors ?
Thanks for new ideas.
Kindest Regards

I am running on it for past one year (Nand GB) and satisfied with its versatility.How ever I dropped it in river once and since then some problem or the other keep on appearing.I am thinking for a replacement - Galaxy note.Although Galaxy Nexus is a close competition , I would choose note for its screen if it can be upgraded later to ICS.
I'd wait.
I would wait. The HTC Titan looks promising and it's running a 1.5, but it seems massive when you read the specs, but then again, so did the HD2 when it first came out.
I'm not sure what I will do when my phone eventually dies. I've been running various versions of HyperDroid since I made the switch to NAND 6 months ago. I'm very happy that I did. I was never pleased with the various custom windows ROMS out there.
Stick with your HD2 if it's still in good shape. Flash HyperDroid v5.3. It's smooth and stable and runs quite fast. I haven't tried any other NAND ROM simply because I have been so pleased with HyperDroid and the wealth of information and support behind it.
YMMV of course. Each HD2 runs unique. My wife's HD2 runs completely different on the same ROMs.
3 years? it only came out in nov 2009
I was getting tired of WM6.5 on my HD2 aswell. But flashing it with Android made me cheer up. Android with up to date apps is way better than the crappy build phone service provider has in stock.

[Q] Best Replacement?

Its been 2 years now and I still love my HD2 , i spend more time using android on it now but I love the fact i can install wm6.5 , android and wp7 etc
battery life has always been an issue but the main problem has been signal (due to o2 uk) which means its time for me to switch provider and most likely get a new phone .. has anyone got any suggestions for a phone that will not make me miss my hd2 ?
Well...
As far as being able to run multiple OS's I think the HD2 is the last of it's kind (the first of it's kind for that matter). But for me I am loving WP7 Mango so I'm looking forward to a WP7 to come out on T-Mo USA. When i get one I'll just use my trusty Leo for Android . If you're looking for an Android phone i think the HTC Ruby is the best IMO and will probably get ICS sometime in the future.
To be honest with you hd2 1 of a kind... I rocked the sensation for 2 months... don't get me wrong dual core.... great phone... I just went back to the hd 2 and I miss it I love it so much better than the sensation.... don't know why just feel so much better do use.... plus the fact that you can rip this rom from windows to android.... the only other thing that I would try the galaxy 2 s or the new galaxy nexus

Yes the Galaxy Nexus looks a good device, except no SD card slot & Android 4.0 is looking to have some interesting new inbuilt useful features & about time UI changes.
Being you are Android user just get what ever device is available to you with the latest android & that should also have good XDA development ...

Moving on S4 Mini buy

Hello to everyone,
I 'm thinking on buying S4 Mini LTE (i9195), to replace my old and precious HTC Desire, and i am a little conserned about the few rom variants that are present so far for the device by the community.
I don't see any miui, aosp, aokp or cm variants (PA, Android Revolution HD etc.) beeing for the device for the time beeing and I am worried if the hole android community is not going to embrace the S4 Mini. I would like to have your thoughts and your experience in general by using the device.
Thanks in advance and sorry if this matter is already discussed elsewhere.
I can give you my opinion, for what it's worth, as a new user who migrated a few days ago from Galaxy S2. I actually wanted an S4 but my finger slipped on ebay and I got an S4 mini instead. I've got a 64Gb SDcard because I carry a lot of media files.
Like you, I thought the custom rom market for the S4mini was a bit weak. But actually it's not bad, considering the few weeks since phone release - we have a way to root and a few 4.2.2 and 4.3 roms available.
First thing I did was to root and remove samsung bloatware with a script from xda. Then I reformatted my sdcard to fat32 'cos I want to be able to mount it in CWM. Now I'm going to wait tile some stable 4.3 roms emerge and CWM mounting of exfat disks is fixed before deciding to stay with stock or move to something else.
The phone is pretty good - a decent size, easy to hold and operate, decent screen, good camera. It's a bit expensive and the 8Gb memory is a pain but at least it has an sdcard slot and replaceable battery which many competitors don't.
tip: buy the i9195 (LTE) variant, I think it's more future-proofed than the others.
Good luck with your decision

Retiring my HD2

Hi Folks, The time has come to formally retire my HD2. It’s been 3+ years since I bought the unit from T-Mobile , not brand new but a refurbished one. So far to date, no hardware trouble yet and will still that way since it will be just in my drawer and will serve as a backup.
The successor is a brand new Nexus 5, 32GB with 2Gig of memory – a very, very fast unit. I already rooted it, still with the Stock Rom on it, but eventually will taste other Nexus 5 ROMS out there.
My HD2 obviously will miss all the flashing activities that it is used to, from WM to Android ROMS – GB, ICS, GB, KK.
I’d like to thank first Tytung for all his hard work keeping our HD2 up to date with the latest ROM in the market.
Thanks also to other HD2 developers/ROM builders/testers, to name a few that in one way or another I used their ROMs or interact with – Dorimanx, Pongster, Xylograph, AmeriCanAndroid, securecrt, boxmax, mccmjoon76, Learning Never Ends team (Robbie P, wis1152, c1cl0n), boonbing, kovjanos, mark1706, tyween, kokotas, sbrayn12144, mskip, xboxmod (WM7).
And lastly thanks to Cotulla, for the creation of his MAGLDR masterpiece.
Thanks gasanpride, best of luck with your new phone. Happy flashing
