A question to those who have upgraded to 2.3 using HTC's official upgrade.
Does the phone have less internal memory available after the update?
I mean I'm already a bit squeezed for space, will this only be worse if i upgrade to 2.3?
yes, but depending on what apps you install, apps2sd is better, moving more of *some* apps.

I don't quite understand what you are suggestion.
Obviously I move everything to sd if i can - but noticeably Googles own bloatware (like the market) can't and refuse to budge.
I'm just worried I'd end up with even less internal space.

A quick lesson.
The *main* partitions on the NAND memory are:
/system (where the ROM and all its apps go)
/cache (where market downloads are stored whilst downloading)
/data (where all user apps, data and settings are stored - this is refered to as "Internal Storage"
What is in /system/app (google maps etc) is NOT counting towards your "Internal storage" in /data. It is irrelevant if you can move them or not.
"move to sd" in Android is better in 2.3 than 2.2.
In 2.2, "move to sd" moves /data/app/whatever.apk to /sdcard/.android_secure, making more space available in /data
in 2.3, "move to sd" moves the same as above AND ALSO /data/data/whatever/lib.
However, NOT ALL apps have /lib. So yes, after 2.3, it takes more of the space up in /data with settings storage etc, but depending on what apps you have, you will compensate by being able to move app libs as well as the apks.
Hope this clarifies.
Ah, thanks rootSU - that does clarify it.
So what HTC's program does is making a larger "system" partition?
Do you know where the phone stores received/sent SMS messages? Do they go "data"?
No system stays the same size at 250MB. It just stores more information in /data.
Sms is /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db

Hm, I read somewhere they said they had to repartition the internal memory which is why it couldn't be an over the air update.

Thanks. So I guess its really a bad idea to save your messages if it keeps eating away of your memory.

Nope. They had to remove stuff to make it fit. They were not entirely happy with their finished product so released it as a dev-only release

What I heard was that it was necessary to run a program on the PC and they thought most people couldn't figure it out.
Do you think there is a reason to upgrade or not to upgrade to this?
(i'm not going to root eiter way)
I did upgrade to the official 2.3 and the result was that the phone got slower. With 2.2 I was able to watch 720p videos on youtube (using the browser, not the app) and sometimes even 1080p. But after the upgrade 720p got very laggy. So, just skip upgrading and root your phone. There are plenty of awesome roms over here!

There was a comment in a thread asking why they couldn't repartition in the update. Someone replied it wasnt possible and I said that it probably would be but there was no way it would be done. Not sure if thats what you're refering to, but they definitely did not repartiton the NAND. They removed apps and wallpapers to get it to fit in the 250MB /system partition

Its called an RUU. Rom Upgrade utility. Many of tehse are available for HTC phones. You can get full ROM's in RUU format or parts of in OTA updates. They usually release both, but they simply didnt other with OTA for this they didnt want to release it. They only continued due to pressure from the consumer base.

Generally 2.3 GB is a faster and better OS than 2.2. That said, I rooted at 2.1 and have not had a stock sense ROM since my first 2.2 ROM nearly a year and a half ago (if not longer, I forget). I'm not really in a position to comment on how good stock 2.3 is or if you are likely to have video playback issues as mentioned above. I can only really talk to you about root, which you said you will not do.

Why have you done this?
I am having similar issues. Coming from a winmob I find it amazing that you cannot install apps to the SD card out of the box and have to go through a long, no doubt complex and warranty voiding process to to be able to do it and then, if my experience with flashing winmobs is anything to go by, the phone will never work quite the same again! That said is there a guide available for rooting a desire and can anyone tell us the dangers / benefits?

It's a security issue with Linux based phones. It's not a "long, no doubt complex and warranty voiding process". It's not exactly difficult to do so long as you can follow instructions. The only time consuming part might be downloading a linux live cd to use to complete the rooting process. I've already proved in another thread that the action of rooting itself won't void the warranty, the warranty becomes invalidated only if a defect is caused by the rooting of the device.
Windows Mobile is a whole other animal than Android so don't take that in to account. The rom you flash during the rooting process is a standard generic rom, the only difference is that it gives you root access.
That sounds great abc, very reassuring thanks. Are there any decent instructions you could point me to?
http://android.modaco.com/content/h...ide-now-with-new-improved-easier-root-method/
There ya go.
He's even simplified the process since yesterday
Thanks a lot abc. Have you or anyone else rooted their phones yet? Does it affect the phone detrimentally in anyway? Is the only advantage Apps2SD or are there other benifits? How do you implement Apps2SD once you are rooted? Thanks!
Check your news feed apps, rss feeds etc through the manage applications and check their cache. I found my news feed widget from google has kept 42mb in it's cache, and kept growing every time it updated....

Open up a terminal and type "df -h" - post the output if it isn't self explanatory.
This assumes you've rooted the device.
Nope, I haven't rooted it. I guess I should start reading about rooting.
Any links you might want to share for an Android noob? For rooting of coarse.
I come from windows mobile and I never had to deal with "rooting". We just had to "unlock" our phones.

Go to the development forum and check the sticky threads. Particularly, the thread with links to other helpful threads should be useful. Pretty sure you just need to run unrevoked forever, flash a custom recovery, then the rom of your choice.
Hi there,
I have a HTC Desire, and its telling me I have low space, so I have deleted everything that I can, including old messages..
Now I am trying to get into my gallery to delete photos/videos and it comes up saying:
Your phone is low on storage space. Please free some space before using this application
I also tried accessing the gallery through camera, and it tells me the same thing
Removed battery for ten seconds then restarted no help
I dont understand what I can do next.
When I restart the phone (which I have like 10 times), it comes up saying it cant identify my time zone... The phone has not been dropped and is in a very protected case
Can someone please help me? Its my partners phone I have borrowed and I'm scared I have broken it!!!

Hello there welcome to xda
What you are getting is the biggest problem the HTC desire has is very little install space, Your better of rooting your phone and installing starburst ROM witch will give you 2GB internal memory.
If you dont want to root try install Quick App cache, this wil remove alot of unwanted data.
Read into Rooting
Always backup
Install custom rom

Yes you do need root for it to clean everything for you, but you can clean each app one at a time with out root theres a good chance that you'll have your browser or another app using alot of MB without you even knowing about it. DONT DELETE APP DATA UNLESS YOU WANT TO.
I think I will wait for my partner to have a go with it, so I dont mess it up!
Do you that that will fix it?
Could you post your system info? you'll find it in settings, about phone, software information.
Or you could look here your self

Its so you can download the stock rom you have now, just incase you ever need to go back to stock. this is only if your think about rooting.

Once you feel you know what your doing you'll be fine Always remember to Backup, download your Stock ROM from shipped roms. then pick a custom from from the dev part of this site

If you ever root your phone and you end up not wanting root you can install this and it will make your phone back to stock unrooted.
Running out of memory is the main reason why I rooted and S-Offed my Desire.
If you have done those, there are plenty options of solving the running out of memory problem.
A2SD+, A2SD + custom NAND partition, Data2Ext, etc.
Beside those you will be also get these as bonuses:
1. Faster and smoother Desire
2. Longer battery life
3. Various UI from various ROMs (Sense, New-Sense, Plain, MIUI, etc.)
4. DSP manager witch doesn't come with the stock ROM
5. Overclock, underclock, under voltage, etc. settings
6. UOT skins
7. Adblock to block unwanted ads
8. Flashing addiction
etc.
OK...you have got your original signed ROM just in case you need it in the future.
Now it is time to root.
Download Android H-Boot driver for your PC and Unrevoked software.
Learn how to root and flash ROMs (no S-Off first nor Nand partition modification, learn more and do those later)
What is it that is eating up my memory...?
I'm NOT asking for more memory for installing apps - I just want to get the same amount of free memory back that I got after a fresh factoryreset and reinstalling and using all programs the first time...
I'm running stock HTC 2.3.3.
Just four days ago I reset my phone and installed 29 apps ran all of them so that they were all ready to use exg Google goggles isn't ready to use before you have answered a few questions...
And I had 29,19 Mb left!!! Brilliant!!! :-D
Today I had to remove a 3,28 MB program because I were below 15 mb and at this moment there is only 16,29 Mb left.
All programs that I can move to sd is moved, all cache is cleared using "1 tap cleaner" (is the a better app for this...)
Why is it that I have lost 13 mb???
Please help because I really would like to find the cause of this...
Installed apps:
1 tap cleaner free
Adobe flash 10.3
Angry birds
Bubble
cardiotrainer
chrome to phone
convert - unit converter
documents to go
dropbox
es file explorer
facebook for android
gmail
goggles
google sky map
handcent sms
flashlight
maps
my perfect egg timer
my tracks
notes (htc widget)
rockplayer lite
shazam
smooth calender
tv2 nyhederne (danish news station app)
Tv2 superliga (dansih football)
tv guide
valg2011
Dmi (danish weather)
youtube
(By the way right after the reset before I installed any apps it said 125 Mb free memory for install)
Well, space is eaten by apps' data (not only cache), crash logs et cetera. For example, when i first install DEX (Romanian dictionary app) it "eats" some 1.26 MB after being moved to SD. When i first run it, it creates another ~5MB of data. If you remove said data, it will just be created again on next run, so don't try that as it's useless.
Yes I know that programs "creates" more mb but that was also what I tried to write when I said that all programs were running one time when I still had 29 mb left...?
So what is it then...?

Some possibly work without being certified, but you may run into bugs at best and total fail at worst. You're better off just moving the ones that belong - moving system apps or other such things can really screw you, as you've noticed.

If your running Froyo you need to do nothing. Just use the system app. If you want to use a2sd then you have to use cwm to partition your card. Do you also want to use part of your partition for swapping (Bonsai)? Btw, this doesn't work with most series 3 cwm.

I'm afraid we have heaps of these threads already
our suggestion is to cut the crap (like quick office) and other stuff that is available on the market, and i'd suggest pushing stuff like stocks to htc hub so its optional not forced
Hmmm...
1. Just remove all apps, which available in Android market, we can download them for ourselves.
2. Several live wallpapers can be also removed, for example waveform, spectrum,VU meter, Many,etc.

Moving HTC apps to the Hub is a very good idea and one that HTC should really think of themselves
Any update is good, devs just need the base, im sure we will make some uber ROMS off their "release"

gets rid of the junk that the average joe or jane doesn't want too...
live wallpapers can be moved there too and installed when you wish (they could of course leave one default one perhaps)
flahplayer plugin its pretty big as well, not needed anymore.
Guys, are you giving advices to htc devs that reading here? lol
i posted my thoughts on the fb page and tweeted but i still doubt they read...
i think the problem will be what can they remove without the majority of people noticing and/or confusing the really basic of users.
like they won't be able to remove facebook without another outcry (some people probably don't know how to use market?)
OTA Update After Rooting
I just Rooted my Desire now I am running GingerVillan 2.5.
I enabled A2SD making ext3 partition of 512 MB and 32 MB Swap on SD card.
However as now the news just came out that There will be gingerbread for Desire
so as I made Full System Image using Nandroid backup, will it be safe to restore that Image and get OTA update when it is available.
They should show a dialog windows after the first reboot following the update and ask if the user want download from the market the missing app, flash player, facebook, maps, youtube...selecting the apps to download..like cyanogenmod does after the first installation
the problem is that in some country some apps are not avalilable in their market..
but..i don't think they will do this..because after removing and restalling that apps will lost its data, setting, preferences ecc..So probably they will just remove some of their app, wallpapers, weather animation, ecc (separate download on htc hub for example, in case of sense 2.1 )

I just Rooted my Desire now I am running GingerVillan 2.5.
I enabled A2SD making ext3 partition of 512 MB and 32 MB Swap on SD card.
However as now the news just came out that There will be gingerbread for Desire
so as I made Full System Image using Nandroid backup, will it be safe to restore that Image and get OTA update when it is available.

Seriously, spare yourself the hassle and stay on the custom ROM. The stock Gingerbread won't be a revolution anyway and a2sd will come more handy like you have it now. If there will be any updated libs, ROM devs here will integrate them anyway, so you'll just flash a updated GingerVillan.
