SDA Storage problems - HTC Tornado

Hey! New here, read quite a bit... I have managed to Application unlock my phone and have been able to add mp3 ring tones. I am trying to install the .NET Framework for app I'd like to try but I am getting errors saying I can't install due to lack of space. Are there things I can delete? I moved all my pics n stuff to my 1gig card already. Can most applications be installed / run from the sd card?
Thanks for your input!

install netcf v2 in your storage card

There is a version that can be installed onto the storage card, I don't know why MS made this so difficult.
Search around, I forget exactly where the directions are, but someone did a nice write up tutorial.

thats's the right thing to do.

Thanks for the replies but still no go....
The NET install still fails even when I try to install on the SD card...
In the About tab I have
Avail storage = 4.29M
Total storage = 19.93M
Avail memory = 16.90M
Total memory = 45.05M
And I have a 1gig card installed and have mucho space there....

I am also facing the similar problems with installation of .NET Compact Framework and could not succeded yet. Can anyone suggest the solution for this problem. Thanks in advance.

Try to copy the CAB on you MiniSD then execute it from there..

The version of Net CF2 that can be installed on storage card is the service pack 1 version. It will install through ActiveSync, and when that happen, usually the file will be copied to the main memory first and then installed from there to whicever location is chosen. In this case, you will get an error saying that installation failed due to lack of space.
Just go to your ActiveSync folder in your desktop and you will see the CAB file there. Copy it over to your storage card and install from there.

.NET CF Installation
Even after executing the CAB file from storage card, it is giving the same problem. How to go ahead ?

Still could not able to install .NET CF2, even with the rapidshare download. Any other way ?

Same here... I haven't had any luck installing the .net pgm at all...
Maybe this bump might help us!

You need about 5.5M free on-board storage to get this to install. I had to move my entire /windows/appmgr folder to the storage card *temporarily* while I installed it. Then just moved it back after. This was the ONLY way I could get this to go...5.5M MINIMUM.
Good luck,

USING STORAGE CARD AS MEMORY

Hey. I'm really new to this forum.. and please excuse me if i'm being ignorant at any time. Just bought a new XDAii Mini and realised that the memory is very less which makes the phone work very slow at time specially if multiple programs are running. So since the memory is only around 60mb or so... can't we utilize the space from our storage memory to work as memory ... basically.. can't the phone use storage memory to work faster... pls advice.
tried searching this forum for answers.. but i gave up.. any help would be appriciated. thanks.
if you've already installed programs i advise a soft reset.
-optionally install the big rom hack to get an extra 20mb of "storage" memory.
-then find a program called cabinstl to re-install all your programs to storage card.
-optionally use a program called memmaid to relocate various large dlls (support files) to storage or storage card.

After vijay advise, read this thread and I gurantee U could get at least 35mb free memory space on startup

using MM to move the dll files to storage card, how much memory will that get you and also if hard reset, the dll will be back to main memory, correct?. Thanks :lol:

TomTom 5 to the storage card?

Hi,
anybody managed to install TT5 to storage card? :shock: WM5 has so little memory so TomTom5 would be nice to get on card.
I don't understand why some progs wants to go devices own memory even I say install on storage card.
On the otherhand, I haven't got it working at all. I've installed the cabs and patched 5.21 exe with the backlight hex, but the first start process exits when I have selected the language for speech. This happens with and without the hex fix.
Click on ttn.cab. It is in your 2577 folder on the SD Card. Also have a look at

URGENT HELP RE EXE ROM & 4gig SD Card

HI.. m Oicnev.. this is regarding extracting the files from the EXE rom.. have download both the 131 and 132 (a later version, as told), but couldn't extract the files.
Have tried using winrar and winzip, but to no avail.. tried right-clicking, but no option to extract, only add to archive.. tried accessing from within winrar. there was the option to extract, but it always returned, no archive file/s in there..
tried running the EXE rom, it ran, posted extracting files, and the showed its dialog box.. then, as told, it returned an error in the end..
i used netants as downloader..
is there anything i further need to do to be able to extract the files? Is there any other way i could get the files? PLS HELP!!!
ALSO, i bought a 4gig SD Card.. the problem is my xda mini couldn't access it, unless, as it prompted, it formats it "to make it readable." This i did, and yes it became readable, but it got converted to 2.1gig. i returned it to the seller, had it replaced, thank goodness the seller was kind.. but now, i don't know what to do.. the SD Card is accessible as 4gig from my card reader though... will the rom upgrade fix the problem? Is there any other software that i need to have? PLS HELP!!!
MANY MANY THANKS, in advance!
You used one of the ROMs from this site's FTP right? I've tried several and all of them extract just fine! If you're looking for the latest ROM that is used widely without any problems, 1.13 T-Mobile ROM, that can be found here.
From there you can use kta's + ampda's guides or my own guide to run you through the upgrade process!
Thanks... only that... Stil problem - 4gig SD Card vs. Mini
Ey, know what, i finally solved my puzzle re EXE ROM.. have managed to extract the files... i tried running the EXE file, clicking next til the last one before it would start to upgrade, but without clicking it (i read from one of your guides).. then i searched for the files in my hidden windows temp folders... found them.. and ran the upgrade.. It went perfectly, i liked it..
But my BIG other problem remained.. still, my XDA Mini couldn't access my 4gig SD Card, despite all the upgrades.. it was still prompting me to format it (beccause it couldn't read it), which must not be done, coz it will convert it to 2.1gig.
I read in one forum to try partitioning the SD Card into two 2gig partitions.. i found it sound.. i followed the instructions.. i ran "compmgmt.msc" from my pc through "start/run".. I was trying to make the first step of deleting the partition through 'Disk Management', but to no avail.. Yes, there was a 'delete partition' option shown in the menus, but unlit; meaning option not available.. So, i was already stalled, couldn't proceed anymore...
Anyone with more options out there? please help...
Many thanks
Your device formatted the memory card as FAT16. This is only supported up to 2 GB:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table#Final_FAT16
Just format the memory card with your card reader as "FAT32" and you will have 4 GB capacity.
RE FAT16
Hi... i checked through my card reader.. its in fat32 format...
@esackbauer,
are you sure the fat16 fat32 topic is the answer to the problems with 4 gig cards? to mee, it doesnt seem so!

Install a program in desired place

Does any friend knows how to install a program to a desired place on a htc diamond. E.g. I want to install a prog, but not in device section of the phone as is in low space, but in sd card. When i tried to install it, it always installed in the divice area, not in sd card. If any can help, i will be very much appreciate that.
Thank u
Some applications will not install anywhere other than device memory. Try installing one of your other apps to the storage card first. Personally I install everything to card if i am given the choice.

As far as I am aware, the HTC Diamond does not have an SD card. There is Internal Storage and Device Memory, right?

Application installed in device instead of storage card

Hi there, i am not sure if anyone has experienced this problem, i tried to install these games ( Xtrat and Experiment 13 ) onto the storage card, but even though i clicked storage card, there were somehow being installed in the main memory of the device. I tried twice already and it is still the same. Any suggestion?
there's file path built-in in the cab...
if the files are hard coded.... I guess the only way is to rebuild the cab file....
that's what i was thinking. The built in memory for HD2 is quite limited. wish there is more....
thanks anyway
