Question about ext rom - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

Ciao,
I've a question about the ext rom, maybe it's an old question, but i tried to search and i didn't find anything...
The progs in the ext rom where will be installed? In the rom (where the OS stay) or in the ram ?
And if is it possible to install progs in the rom..how is it possible?
Thanks
Fabio

The programs will be installed in the default location of the CAB file (ie. RAM).
You can get the Ext ROM unlocker tool and it will show up as a 16mb Storage card; however, don't see why you would want to install application here. It's only 16mb

Memory allocation, T-mobile stored install data

I decided to have a go at ROM upgrade, originally had WM2003.
upgraded to the WM2005 and everything worked ok, but memory was reduced from 128 to 64.
I then had problems installing tomtom 5 and also would no longer communicate with a PC,
Decided to go back to WM2003, but could only find a 2003SE ROM.
anyway installed that, and when it booted, memory was back to 128 and it also started installing all of the T-mobile programs again,
Is there any way to remove this installer? or remove the programs, as most came up with a message that they were for an older version of windows.
they did not install on WM2005 though, which probably explains the missing memory.
this has cured the problem of communicating with a PC, now detects the device correctly and starts activesync.
I have looked in the remove programs to try and uninstall the T-mobile data, it would be good to get rid of it and free up more memory, does anyone know how to do this?
wm2005 beta that you used
use the FLash of storage and extented rom for data
and all the ram on the device as normal ram
because devices not made for 2005 only have 32MB storage
people cant install much on their device
on 2003 ram is devided between normal ram and Data ram
where you install programs
ppl made it so they use some of the 128Program ram as a ram disk
so they have more storage space then 32MB
this is why your device only had 64MB because the rest was made into a ramdisk
when a 2003 device hardreset some of the storage called extented rom have programs which are auto installed
on 2005 that space is used for normal storage
so programs dont auto install on 2005
if you unlock your extented rom Look Wiki.xda-develoers.com
you can remove cab files you dont want it to auto install when you use 2003 you just unhide and unlock the extented rom remove the cab files you dont want remove their entry from the config.txt and lock and hide the extented rom again and hardreset

Files in ext ROM

Hello,
I did a hard reset of my Hermes without installing softs in ext rom for saving space. Then I unhide the ext rom.
Now I want to install manually only the softs I need.
How could I know what are the differents softs in the ext rom ? I can see the files names, but I don't know their meaning...
Many thanks.
Extract the cabinet file using cabextract or wince cab manager. Then look at the contents of the extracted cab file, and try to figure out...

About Storage Memory?

how can we increase storage memory? i have only 1.25 mb and it sucks. i used many tools to clean memory but i did not get the result i expected...i use 6.1 pro.
Install a new rom without programs (clean) and put all programs on storage card
is there a clean rom for erofich's 6.1 pro??
No !!
this is my big problem with startrek !
erofich's pro rom is great ... but after installing it , you have about 9 MB of storage space .
so when you add some necessary apps to device ... the drama is begin !!!!!!!!
there is no clean version of this rom . however , with a clean rom you must install further applications and in the end ... the results is same !
best way : buying singular 8125 with 128 MB ram !!
but i love this phone
anyway, after installing a navigasion program with some other necessary programs like dictionary gprs counter, i got only 1 mb free space i wish there could be a solution but nothing to do thnx by the way...
maybe all your apps installed in memory phone ??
if you can forget the pro rom , you can use from Erofich's clean rom ( the lightest wm 6.1 rom )
after installing that , you must first install the .net 3.5 compact for installing other apps . but for me , after installing all my necessary programs , finally about 10 MB storage space is reserved ...
remember that you must all apps in staorage card
no, i never install apps in phone mem.
maybe i will give it a try thx...

[Q] Apps2SD on a custom ROM

Hi,I am relatively new to Android,but I got the hang of flashing a custom recovery,ROM etc.But there is one thing I can't figure out.I flashed the Megatron ROM and the optimusXrom and they both come with built-in Apps2SD.But I don't know how to use it.Is there some terminal command,how can I transfer my apps to sd?I really cannot find the answer here,even though I searched this forum.Can anyone help me and explain to me how to use this Apps2SD option.Tnx in advance
You don't have to do anything. If your ROM has a2sd, the applications will go to a special partition on your microSD card. The OS is tricked into believing they are installed in the phone memory, so the option "Move to SD" will appear for those applications - but as I mentioned before, they actually go to the SD card straight from installation. That's all.
always read the first page of rom's carefully. You have to make a partition of 512 MB on your SD card from recovery. By partitioning your SD card will be formatted and loose everything. So copy your important SD contents to your PC. And always read the first page of roms in the forum everything is there.
Search xda for Darktremor a2sd.
