there is an option in app manager to move some apps to sd manually, but you can use app from play store like link2sd

Agni PureCM kernel lets u do it however it is in an experimental phase. U get to choose the option while installing the kernel...

When I move files manually it doesn't completely remove the app. A portion of it is still eating away my memory in the internal drive and when I download big games those games don't move properly which is why the swapping of memory is required but i don't seem that's possible in custom ROM's .

Guys,
I've made few ROMs for DHD, Inspire 4G & Nexus S. Thought to make something for other devices so cooked this ROM.. will be making faster builds if this one goes good..
Change Log:
v1.0:
Rooted
Busybox installed
ap2sd supprt
Completely Stock
What is working:
Everything is supposed to work. Since i don't have Marvel (WildFire S) with me so your tests / feedback will help alot
Issues:
You tell me
Will try to further optimize the ROM & release updates accordingly..
How to install:
Backup your data
Wipe Cache & Data Paritions
Create partition on your sdcard for Data partition by following this guide
Flash the zip via recovery​
Download link:
Marvel 2.3.3 - v1.0
Credit goes to:
Those guys who shared the ROM
dsixda - For the Kitchen
Darktremor for his AP2SD Script
To the users who are helping me improve with their feedbacks & suggestions
And ofcourse to all the devs who give us tips, tools, knowledge & inspiration with their amazing work
Thanks, can I ask based on what ROM is this, and why is it so small size?
Thanks.
Could you tell me if this ROM has Spanish Language?
And could you post screenshots of this rom?
Thanks again

Base is 1.33.401.2, ROM is deodexed that is why size is small as compared to hdpi devices..

The ROM is based on European version so it should include Spanish as well. About the screenshots, since it is a stock 2.3.3 with Sense 2.1 so that's why didn't include any
It works but have just 60Mo free RAM.
So, I'll not use it.

There will be optimized versions of this ROM. Again since i dont have a Marvel myself so feedback from you guys will make me improve the ROM...
How much internal storage do u have now? after flashing the ROM? is ap2sd script working fine for you?
If interested you can be my tester for future releases
Edit: Actually i want to make this ROM for you guys & it will give u enough FREE RAM with good speed as well.. check this Ginger S

You have to do as jikantaru says here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17617165&postcount=1
in order to get freed up space...and you'll get a lot!!
I just tried it quickly this morning. When I saw the "only" 60Mo of free RAM, I didn't search how to improve it. So I didn't use Jikantaru tip.
Because jikantaruROM (euro version) gives me 120Mo of free RAM (and working well), it was obvious that I'm going on to use it.
To fshami : If you want testing, I'm your man !
you get low internal memory cause rom is deodexed. thats the reason why I didnt deodex my roms. You'll only get 62mb available storage in internal memory. Unless there is a compatible data2sd in wildfire s that would be great. Ext memory card partition used as internal storage. like 512mb or 1gb.

AP2SD Support is included in the ROM. Did u try flashing it with the required partitioning?
I know apps2sd support, like link2sd, so no fun in there.

I know that you know that what is ap2sd. Just wanted to check if u tried my version to check that the script is working fine..
nope, cause I have a lot of apps and nand backup takes to long. And I have fully customized my wildfire s, so I'm not testing this yet until I get some problems with my current one.
I tried again your ROM with Jikantaru's tip.
I've got 136Mo of free RAM. Amazing !
I'll beta test it. I don't use the Marvel as my daily phone so I can try new ROMS and really put it through it's paces. I'm installing it now.
Any tips so far? I'm tearing out a few HTC apps already, so it's not unadulterated.
did we get link2SD or data2SD going?

Thanks for ur interest. You can give this version a try to check performance especially ap2sd part that how it goes..
As for RAM concern i've few things to play it with as well but first want to know that how the base version goes..

Are you talking about system flash memory or system RAM? There is plenty of RAM to run whatever we have going. It's system flash memory that is in short supply. I think we need to figure out what HTC junk can be jettisoned without harming the rest of the system. That would save some. Plus we really just need to move cache and Contacts and Gmail to the SD for there to be plenty of space.
---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 PM ----------
There doesn't seem to be a Contacts app. Did I destroy this in my crazed HTC removal phase of installation or is it really missing?
I'm still trying to figure out what the best method of moving data to the SD is. I don't want everything on it, but definitely most Apps and even cache would be good.

lolz contact app is there in the rom, may be u deleted it while cleaning the ROM.
I included ap2sd script in rom, will also try to check others like data2sd or link2sd.. How is ur experience so far with the ROM?
It's pretty good to work with. I'm going to go back to test it just the way you meant for it to be and then see if I can get it running well like that before I tear out the HTC components.
I'm jumping between your ROM and the CM7 build by alquez which shows great promise and hopefully eventually what we get to run on this. A CM build for this phone would make it competitive with many much more expensive ones.
I'm reflashing now and will update again when I'm back up!
You said that you already have the a2sd script in your ROM, so which A2SD app do we need to run? I didn't see one already installed, but it might be running the stock A2SD app too right?
I'm going to add a link2SD app or data2SD app any suggestions?
_________
okay, the compass and gyroscope isn't working. orientation sensor and compass are not registering data it appears. That's going to screw up a lot since it means no map orientation and it also means no screen rotation to landscape for youtube, etc.
added Jikantaru's method for cache2SD and now have 123mb of free system memory. I'll see what it acts like but that should be enough for running some required apps from the system mem and for syncing gmail and contacts.
I'm actually going to put my sim in this phone now and use it!
also Swype keyboard on this is swell. really works great. Still huge problems with flash memory though and I'm constantly trying to move what I can to the SD card. It really needs a lin2SD or another solution.
_______
just tested pretty thoroughly using Sensor List and the Orientation Sensor, Axex Accelerometer, Magnetic field sensor, Gravity sensor, Linear Acceleration Sensor, and Rotation Sensor are all not registering. I also checked them in Elixir and they report nothing. Any idea's about what's going wrong? I wouldn't think that these would be affected by the ROM. Maybe it's the cache to SD or something additional.

[For DEV]Samsung Galaxy W I8150 kernel&platform source code

Hello!
I am an owner of Samsung Galaxy W i8150 and since there is no forum section for this phone yet, I've deceided to open a thread here. Since I'm not a developer, maybe I will become one, but my lack of time and knowlage doesnt help here.
So why I've created this thread? My goal is to find people, whou would develope some stuff for this phone, or at least help me to do it.
What this phone need is a recovery, so we need to port one, maybe CWM recovery would be the best choice. Next thing is a costum rom, preferebly CyanogenMod. I've already make a post there. So far nobody offered me any help or advice regarding that, but I'm an optimist .
We already have root access, that can be acchived with this tool, so this could speed things up.
I really don't know how to start porting recovery or cyanogenmod, so some advice, directions and links would really be appreciated. What I've managed to find is a kernel source code and platform soruce code, any one who is willing to help with this, can download this code HERE (it is a dropbox link, so if you can't download it just make a dropbox account).
I hope that someone who has developed some roms for andorid in past will buy this phone, will help with this project.
That's all folks
Have a nice day!
Please vote HERE for a forum section for this phone on XDA! So we could speed things up .
UPDATE!!!
Developer KezraPlanes has voulontered to port CyanogenMod 7.2.0 (Gingerbread 2.3.7) to this phone, which is a great news for Samsung Galaxy W owners. Next big thing will most probably come from well known developer arco68, he started porting(and we all hope he will continue after gettig his W back from the repair) CM 9 (Ice Cream Sandwich 4.x) on our phone. Lets show those two guys some support, moral or in "beers" ! Good luck guys!
For happy flashing of new roms that are coming to us you'll need a recovery, which you can find here, thanks to the developer raidzero! I think he would also apreciate your support !
I'm probably going to buy this phone, and if I do, I will definitely try to get CM going on it. I already maintain CM for two other phones, but as they're getting old and it's doubtful that ICS will work properly on them, I need something new to work on.

This is great to hear! I have this phone for a month now, and I'm very satisfied. I like it cause is fast enough, and it is not to big to carry it around in a pocket. I really hope that someone like you will buy the phone. I've installed linux on my PC just because I want it to try and port recovery, I think this is the first common step after rooting, cause we need recovery to flash custom rom. But my lack of knowlage on this area is to big for now.
I hope too to see development going further on this good phone.

Thanks for the support!
1st I've already voted for this nice device, thanks for the tip qzem
2nd I have not been able to read any good reviews of this phone yet, how is the battery life?
3) How does it feel in your hand (premium or cheap - feel free to elaborate and find a balance point view that I've not given you, hehe).
4) Could you do some benchmarking? Just to have an idea of how fast it is.
That would be my top 3 questions/request for this phone
Thanks for helping out.

1. Thanks for voting
2. Battery life is satisfing, with wifi on and my normal use(30-50 sms per day,few calls and internet browsing 20-40 min per day), phone usually last at least 50 hours.
3. Phone doesnt look cheap,but I eouldnt say premium either. It has nice design but it doesn't stand out the crowd.It fits very well in my hand,and it has a good grip with slightly rough back surface.
4. Now that is rooted I get in Quadrant the overall result somewhere around 1056. I can make more benchmarks and post it here if you like.

Yes the Exhibit should have the same hardware and display, only different buttons. I've got she source code on this page. You have to Sign up first, than you can download the source code for wanted phone, if it is already up there. If you want to root your phone you should try Doomlord's tool which contains Zergrush rooting method. Link is in my first post.

Thats ia great. Two things you should implement is new frequency table so that we could try overclock it and support for interactive governor
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA App
Interactive is already in, along with some other stuff. Do you know what governor Samsung is using as default on the phone? From what I can see in the sources, they have set performance as the default.
Hm I really don't know what profile is using Samsung as default. Hey when you'll have your kernel ready, I can test it. One thing I'm not sure, how will I flash it since there is no recovery for this phone yet.
I'll work on that when I have the device, as I need access to it in order to retrieve partition layout and sizes.

I have swapped external SD (would be your 16 GB SD) with internal SD (the phone memory). This is done by changing /etc/vold.fstab so that your external (16 GB) SD card is mounted on /mnt/sdcard and I have mapped internal SD to be mounted as /mnt/sdcard/external_sd. I don't have the file to hand right now, but can post it later.

about pen drive the answer is no... but m not sure about ubuntu...
Ubuntu will not be available for Galaxy Y as Ubuntu needs dual core specs to run on any device and our phone doesn't meet the requirements
Using external USB devices is not yet possible
there are some ROMS check out which one you would like on your device
here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1472
Use a2sd to use mem card as internal memory

[Q] Custom roms and after rooting help/advise

Hello brothers, first of all i like to thank all who helped me root my device (HTC ONE V),
now that i have rooted my device (superuser), i want to avail the benefits of it but so far i am lacking in proper guidance.
so i have a couple of questions to which i want help with ..
1) i want to remove htc sense stuff which slows my device (takes up ram) and control whats in my ram and increase cpu speed.
2) i would to install a custom rom/kernal but i dont know which one is the most suitable for me ( i want which give max performance n stats etc etc) and does installing rom formats your apps and data ??
3) i saw this rheosoft ram expander software and there is this internal storage app as well, so i want to do both with my sd card ( 8 gb ) and yet have space for my regular use.
i would really appreciate if anyone can guide me even in one of my questions.
Thank you

Looking for a stable Rom for Xperia M dual , Which actually lets me use both Sims

Hi guys ,
I don't know if this is the right place to be posting this , so please forgive me if im doing anything wrong (im a noobie and this is my first post)
Im looking for a stable/bug free Rom with Move to sd option right there in the normal settings . Im really tired of using the official rom for so long .. unable to play any good games and even being limited to choosing either one or two of my fav games since low storage message always shows up . Im willing to try any rom you suggest as long as i'll be able to use both my sims. when i looked around i saw that some ppl say that lollipop doesn't support dual sim.. and even if i flashed it , i'll be limited to single sim . It might not seem that bad for most people but it does to me lol. So im also asking to clarify if i flash the patch file provided alongside the cm12 rom will i be able to use full function of my phone. My main goal is gaming so even if there aren't any bug free Roms there i hope you can suggest me a working way to install games and move em to my sd card.
Currently my phone is running on Android 4.3 , Stock 15.5.A.1.5 ( Rooted with towlroot)
So thats why im looking for a new rom , I hope you can indeed help me with my problem and Thanks for all your help in advance :fingers-crossed: !!
Look first of all there is no rom without bugs for the xperia m, but that doesn't meant there are no good roms for xperia m.There are some good roms with some major and minor bugs . You have to decide for what purpose you want to upgrade
If you are bored of your stock rom and looking for some better performance and new look then there are good number of roms available here like official cyanogenmod kitkat,lollipop,marshmallow and also some other third party roms .(Just go through Xperia M Android Development and Xperia M Original Android development )
And you are asking about rom with move to sd card , but i doubt there are not so efficient roms in that aspect but i recommend you to use apps2sd and create partitons in sdcard and use it , it is one of the best method . You can use it on any version of android you like (with some basic knowledge on partitioning , just watch some videos on youtube or search in internet..,)
If you are not intereseted to do experiment on your sd card use CM13 marshmallow , here we can set our sdcard as internal so that you can install big memory games , apps etc.., and also latest android version .There are quite a few bugs but that doesnt really matters for daily use if you are a dualsim user you will not get internet on 2nd sim . Just once go through the link and read everything carefully , and have any doubts post here there are lots of people here to answer you
You can use ArchiDroid v3.1.5 ROM. It lets you move apps from device to SD card. Also it has the less number of bugs as I see. Install recovery and Flash a single file to get started. No need to flash GAPPS, Dual-sim patch etc.. it's already in the package. Choose options wisely while installing it.

And you are asking about rom with move to sd card , but i doubt there are not so efficient roms in that aspect but i recommend you to use apps2sd and create partitons in sdcard and use it , it is one of the best method . You can use it on any version of android you like (with some basic knowledge on partitioning , just watch some videos on youtube or search in internet..,)
If you are not intereseted to do experiment on your sd card use CM13 marshmallow , here we can set our sdcard as internal so that you can install big memory games , apps etc.., and also latest android version .There are quite a few bugs but that doesnt really matters for daily use if you are a dualsim user you will not get internet on 2nd sim . Just once go through the link and read everything carefully , and have any doubts post here there are lots of people here to answer you

You can use ArchiDroid v3.1.5 ROM. It lets you move apps from device to SD card. Also it has the less number of bugs as I see. Install recovery and Flash a single file to get started. No need to flash GAPPS, Dual-sim patch etc.. it's already in the package. Choose options wisely while installing it.

@hemanthvarma Btw if i use the partition method will i be able to move apps and games to sd card even though my phone doesn't even have the option to move apps in the settings ?
also has this method worked in xeria M dual yet , cuz one of my friends had tried to do it on my phone and he only managed to currupt google playstore on my phone
Finally will i be able to reformat the sd card into a normal sd card again ?

Yes you can move apps to sd card by using apps2sd and also in future you can come back to normal sdcard by again repartitioning it . Watch some videos about how to create partitions in sdcard and how to use apps2sd in MM
Dont simply partition and insert it in your phone you have tofollow some extra steps to get it done , refer xda forums also
