I was pondering this too. I was quite shocked when I noticed that I'm already down to 70MB free, and then even more so when I noticed you only get 148MB to play with in the first place! My friend's G1 currently has 220MB free. Why does the Desire have far less internal storage than a phone that's a good few years old?

Anyway, I've suddenly become quite wary of which apps I install based on their size, which is a shame. The sooner they allow SD card installs the better.

Thanks guys for all your answers so far, makes me much more confident that the Desire is future proof for my 18 month contract :-))

And I really like this forum, 90mins after my post and already 4 useful replies, that's how it should be.

Thanks!

Is your sd card partitioned?
[Nexus One General] tonnic:
...probably not. I'm assuming if it isn't there isn't an easy way to do so and keep my data?. .. or is there? :P.
[Nexus One General] shep211:
Use recovery 1.7 cyanogen version to make a ext2 partition then upgrade it from ext2 to ext3 to ext4. Mount your sd card and back it up before wiping it.

1 Install recovery 1.7 cyanogen

2 Boot into recovery

3 select patition sd card option

4 select partition sd

5 choose 0 for swap 1 to 2 gigs for ext2 and the rest will be fat32.

5 once that is done go back into patition sd card options and select ext2 to ext3 then after thats done select ext3 to ext4.

Hope this helps

shep
[Nexus One General] deprecate:
Cyanogen did not write this recovery tool; Amon_RA created a CM-based theme for it as it was heavily requested. He also added in support for Soyars' Apps2SD implementation (what you are giving a how-to for).

You actually do not need to change ext types for this to work. For testing purposes, I left it as the stock ext partition type created by 1.7 and apps2sd works beautifully.
[Nexus One General] djdamon:
thanks heaps

I never said it was made by Cyanogen. I know Amon_RA made it.

how can you revert the partition on the sd card?

i want to have the full space on my sd card just as it came from stock.
[Nexus One General] tonnic:
So that didn't seem to work.

I tried without the updating of ext3 and ext4 and no dice.

I finally SEEMED to have gotten it to work. I did the partition of:

SWAP 0

EXT2 2048

REMAINDER

Anyways, I did this WITHOUT the ext3 and ext4 updates. When I went into the OS, the App2SD is enabled and the SD card mounts fine.

Hopefully this will continue to work. Any1 know what the problems are without updating to ext4?
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
jesus i hope its fixed..

A REALLY EASY WAY TO PARTITION YOUR MEMORY CARD IS AS FOLLOWS...

back-up your card

download Clockwork Recovery MOD from the market

buy the pro version because this guy is a genius*

+you might have to in order to partition idk

click partition memory card (something like that)

i clicked 512MB then 256MB for the second option.

works amazingly
[Nexus One General] liam.lah:
Do you have a linux distro handy?

if so, you can use Gparted to create the partitions. You might need a microSD adapter though, as it seems to have trouble finding the mount point if it is in the phone.
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
could be anything. idk why itd be the card. if it still comes up in finder/explorer then its not dead.
[Nexus One General] tonnic:
I thought swap partition is not needed anymore, so I thought first option should be 0?
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
idk man i just did the most on both options
[Nexus One General] RinTinTigger:
Why do guys set the swap to 0 ?

Just to understand?
[Nexus One General] prettyboy85712:
If you read the changelog, it states create an "ext4" partition.
[Nexus One General] tonnic:
no problems with the new card. old card must not work in the N1 for some reason
[Nexus One General] RinTinTigger:
Can anyone answer my question, why u set the swap size to 0 ?
[Nexus One General] doctajay:
This was extremely helpful. Thanks alot man.
[Nexus One General] jsapp:
Because a swap partition isn't really needed on the Nexus, as it has plenty of memory space. The option is there if you really want it I guess. I know on the G1, you needed swap for certain ROMS, and some used it to gain some performance, but that had limited hardware.

[Desire General] dougsdir:
the clock also has my "supposed" location" just underneath the time.

Is there any way to change the settings on the widget to remove the location as the location is never correct ( i think it may be the location of the phone mast it is using )

Also if i remove the clock widget altogether, how do i get it back as Ive been into Add Widgets and it is not the "Analog Clock" by Andoird or the Clock by HTC
[Desire General] nicelad_uk:
Have you clicked on the Clock by HTC and gone right? Its there.

When you re-add it you can add a City of anywhere, so you can manually choose your own city. Not sure about the name, haven't really looked at that part...
[Desire General] farnsbarns:
it is the clock by h t c you need to swipe to the right to see the version you're talking about.

yeah that is it, i thought it was a differen one as it had the weather in it.

Doesn't look there is a way to disable the location :(
[Desire General] brummiesteven:
I dunno about disabling location but you can pick your own location instead of it doing it automatically.
[Desire General] biemsy:
I don't need an app to tell me what the weather is right now, where I am right now. I've got five built-in senses that do a pretty good job of working that out, no data connection necessary.

I like the flip clock though.
[Desire General] Tearlow:
Related (But not what OP asked). The Defaulted clock the Location was wrong at Arrival obviously. However after changing it into the Right City the weather plugin on the Homescreen now displays the right area (Although lacking the proper letters "å ä ö" are displayed as "a a o" but that's not the problem. Once I hit the weather it suddenly displays the "Current" city seems to be defaulted at "Sweden"... Is there a way to change that Current city or force it so it displays the right things?
[Desire General] ephumuris:
Have a look on the market for a flip clock app then or just IGNORE the weather on it.
[HD2 General] difo:
Hi gurus,

I would like to be able to change volume when screen is turned off. Do you have a tweak?

Many thanks in advance
[HD2 General] yelitterulez:
This is true, it gets REALLY annoying especially when I'm listening to music and can't adjust the volume with the screen off. Would love to see this problem fixed, especially since it was alleged that the HTC stock earphones had "volume control capabilities" (sigh....).

Had to resort to choosing between a HTC earphone with "forward", "backward", "call answer" capabilities, or a normal (and much better sound quality) earphone with volume control.

Tough choice eh? So yeah, I'm just typing this to bump this thread up, hopefully this would get fixed soon!!! :D
[HD2 General] godsafk:
I use the HTC Music Player and the volume controls work for me on the side of the phone. Not sure what player you may be using, but I like to use the hardware supported software for reasons like these.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
I was going to type much the same thing earlier, but got sidetracked.

Volume works fine for me in standby.
[HD2 General] yelitterulez:
Wooohoo!! Thanks!

p/s: Another question, would u guys have any idea how to reduce the volume bar increments from 3 bars to 1 bar? I know this can be done by adjusting the on screen volume bar via touching it. But using the volume rocker with the screen off while listening to music doesn't actually help, does it? It either gets too loud or too soft when I click on the volume rocker.
[HD2 General] 5manarmy:
Is there any way of doing this without having to use the HTC player?

I have a preference for a different player (pocket player) but wish I didn't have to turn on the screen to access the volume controls.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:

[HTC Tornado] Crowleycator:
You can try by always this method. It worked for me a lot of times. WARNING! THIS METHOD IS ONLY WORKING FOR SIM UNLOCK!!

1- Download this HTC 2125 Offline Unlocker.zip to your PC

2- Unzip it! of course

3- Sync your device with activesync

4- MANUALLY COPY THE CERT.CAB TO YOUR 2125 AND INSTAL IT FROM YOUR DEVICE

5- Restart your device and sync with activesync

6- Run file named "Autounlock.bat" and just follow the instructions.

7- (ONLY FOR CID UNLOCK)Phone will reboot. then you have to hard reset. cuz some winmo files are gonna lost.

After its work is done, your device will reboot. Now you are ready for going in any services

I hope help you and to anyone!!!

Did someyone try Wizard Service Tool?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=329170

IMEI changing works on HTC Tornado (checked:p). Maybe SIM & CID unlock works too. My Tornado is unlocked, so a can't try it...

Edit:

Unfortunetly WST doesn't work witch tornado SIM & CID unlock. Use lokiwiz please!!
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
How did you get the WST operate on the Tornado? For my devices it always gives me the error:

Warning!

A device was detected but one (or both) of RAPI

Communications and Applications Policy isn't

enabled.

Use first button for that purpose and try again

Doing so will not change anything. I checked the stuff that the Cabs are doing to the security policies and applied them manually - but no way is WST working. Also copying files from one cab to the device does not work either.

Any hints to get it running?
[HTC Tornado] gutek85:
I think it's ROM problem. I used ROM cooked in your kitchen, but had the same situation. After upgrade to wm6.5 ROM (link in my signature) it works:D

It must be the problem with full app unlock in your ROM...
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
I think SGregory has completely patched away the signature checks in the nk.exe - no need to care about security policies then. Will see if that does the trick.
[HTC Tornado] gutek85:
Try and share experiences. Maybe we'll have a new tool for CID/SIM unlock our Tornado:)

Soon I will have the opportunity to try this on SimLocked SPV C600. Describe here the results of tests:p
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
Well, why another tool - lokiwiz works perfectly for CID unlock and SIM unlock on the Tornado (and all older using the G3 chip). From S620 onwards things have changed and there are no free permanent unlock solutions.
[HTC Tornado] gutek85:
You can use a Wizard Serwice Tool ONLY for IMEI change, but only for repair. SIM & CID unlock doesn't work with HTC Tornado!!!
[HTC Tornado] garywlafreniere:
I used this to unlock the CID and the SIM. When I put the SIM card in the phone wont work and it says "data crashes. Please contact your service center"

Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
You have corrupted the "encrypted block". This block holds the SIM-Lock, CID-Lock and IMEI (+ other forensically relevant data I was told). If you have a backup of the encrypted block (lokiwiz does this) try to upload it back to the phone. If not you have to pay 10 pounds to http://imei-check.co.uk/c600_unlock.php - they can recover the encrypted block and deliver tooling to do it. The device is unlocked (CID and SIM) after the procedure. It worked for one of my devices where the same problem occurred.
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
Well, it does not. Using the autopatcher (on my WM6 ROM) it does not succeed. Will not check further as the lokiwiz works perfectly and it creates a backup in case things go wrong.
[HTC Tornado] gutek85:
Wizard Service Tool creates backup copy of encrypted block (SuperCID-ing, default setings), so you can restore it by lokiwiz02b
[HTC Tornado] Crowleycator:
Thanks gtek85!
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
@gutek85: did you check that the WST backup is also just a 64kB binary copy, just like Lokiwiz does it? Can you give advice on what to do in renaming and copying for those who are not aware of the details?

Can you further tell what happens if you "unlock" with WST and then try to repeat it? This may happen for another device or the same.

Problem could be that the old "original" backup is overwritten with the "corrupted" one that WST has put to the device and which taken as the new "original" - hence making it impossible to ever get back!

-> this happens with lokiwiz tooling if you don't care to save the first backup immediately.

Just binary compare the "backup" you have with a "fresh made" backup from the corrupted block. If they are identical all the restore will not help you!
[HTC Tornado] gutek85:
If you set SuperCID, using WST, it creates backup copy in .bin file, so you can use it in lokiwiz (I found my old one for C600 and now it works:)) But renameing from WST_..._CID.fls to locked.bin works to (checked):)

If you want to restore your old CID-block, you have to modify (right mouse click => Edit) lokiwiz02b code, otherwise it doesn't write your backup file, just modify file readen from the phone and write it back. You have to delate bold line of code and save it to lokiwiz1.bat file in the same directory. If you're sure that your old locked.bin file is coppied to lokiwiz directory, then run lokiwiz1.bat file and press L.

...

:ItemB

ECHO Locking mobile... DO NOT DISCONNECT UNTIL THE PHONE REBOOTS!

ECHO Store the generated 'lock_backup.bin' file in a safe place. It can help to restore your device if anything goes wrong.

GOTO End

...

WST asks where to save backup copy file and it's named with date and time of creating, so it's almost impossible to overwrite it;)
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
Great, this will help many, I think :-)

The batch file normally tries to SIM-Lock again your device, hence the line with the wizardunlock -lock that you do not need here as you only want to write back the original block. You can either delete the line in the batch file or make it not execute by prefixing it with two colons ::

It is really a life-saver that WST puts a timestamp to the backup file! Would be great to add something similar to the lokiwiz batch file. This would give it an extra safety.
[HTC Tornado] sunny_morning:
i have the same problem, havent found solution yet...
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
There are 3 solutions to this problem:

restore your encryted block from the backup that either WST or Lokiwiz are doing with Lokiwiz, steps described by gutek85.

Mind that WST only "works" when you have the WM6.5 ROM from Gregory installed - but it will not correctly do the job and corrupt the encrypted block for the Tornado. Luckily the created backup of the encrypted block can be be copied back to the device using the Lokiwiz tooling, see a few posts earlier in this thread.

use the WM6.5 ROM from gregory - it seems patched to skip the check on the encrypted block. So if you used WST on this ROM and played around you may have ended up with a corrupted block but you would not notice until you go to another ROM.

pay imei-check.uk 10GBP to reconstruct the encrypted block for you
[HTC Tornado] gutek85:
I think, should remove WST from list of programs for Tornado SIMlock and CIDlock remowing. This causes too many problems. lokiwiz is enough
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
Yes - but who could be using it anyway for the initial purpose?

It does not work on stock ROMs and CID locked devices, so you got into the problem only because you had used it while Gregory's ROM was on the device. Lucky that WST does a backup - and this is why I want to outline this safety bag as well. I have put some explanation below nevertheless.
[HTC Tornado] gutek85:
Here is instruction how to fix it.
[HTC Tornado] fahdi630:
sir i have tornado imat with spl 2.00 i want to downgrade spl to 1.xx please give me the solution thanks in advance.
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
There is no isolated way of downgrading the SPL, unless you construct a .nbf to do so. There is also no reason to do this, the SPL has no function for normal operation.

There are few shipped ROMs with SPL 1.x available, from Imate it is the i-mate_SP5_WWE_1.5.331.4.exe for the SP5. You find it at www.shipped-roms.com

Why do you want to downgrade the SPL?

Which problem do you have with this device?
[HTC Tornado] deema_a:
My Android phone broke, and while I am waiting for my new Galaxy Nexus to arrive, I dug up my good old Cingular 2125. Unfortunately, when I put the SIM card in, I learned that the phone was still locked to Cingular - and I am on T-Mobile. I am looking for a way to get the phone unlocked. I tried the method above, but the attachment in the first file appears to be dead - WinZip tells me it's a corrupt archive and I see no files inside. Can anyone help please?
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
Pick up this archive: http://www.mediafire.com/?tzx4f489w8qlmwf

I have pulled it from my kitchen. It is pretty self explanatory inside, numbered folders tell the sequence.

- first application unlock the device (if not done already)

- second start lokiwiz, and select the SIM Unlock option.

- Confirm the execution of itsutils on the device

- if you also set the SuperCID you can upload any cooked ROM if you like

You can even cook yourself, it has become so easy with OS Builder and my Tornado Kitchen, see the related thread.. Ready made builds are also available, if you like to check them out.
