Is there a tweak for Opera Mobile to make it save pages to Storage Card (Internal Storage on HTC Diamond) when I use this feature?
I already have my .ini configured so that the browser cache is there but when I save a page it goes to main memory (Application Data\Opera9\saved pages)... Very annoying, I can't find a solution to change this location.
Any help would be appreciated...
I'd like to know the same thing,

The lastest version of Opera has just been released, but the normal way to get the cache from memory to the Storage Card, and also input.ini settings seems to have been removed.
A Cannot find input.ini or the cache on memory or storage card, any ideas on changing the settings (mainly cache to Storage Card and change page movement to paging not "next link").
I simply installed Opera 8.65 to my storage card using the downloaded installation cab. Opera now simply stores cache under \storage card\application data\Opera. Don't remember doing any special settings
On the previous versions (that were in beta) the cache was in memory, but XDA-Developers published a way of getting the cache to Storage Card, but as you pointed out, Opera have done this for us now - I must have been blind not to notice the new place for the cache.
Many Thanks
Sad to see that the developers still have hidden the favorites. Five clicks just to open a favorite is just plain stupid. Specially in a handheld.
How is the performance compared to PIE ?
- Much faster?
- A little bit faster?
- Slower?
storage card only?
I want to install the app in main memory and the cache in the storage card.With the new version im stuck
Hi all,
I've just installed WM6.1 (Plain Jane version) on my SP5m smartphone and there is only 1MB left internally so whenever I surf web pages I get this annoying message saying "free up some space plz"! Could someone help me to fix this please?
Most of my apps are installed on the storage card, but skype and googlemaps are auto-installed internally, is there a way to change this?
Also, I've tried those tweaks that supposedly puts IE cache onto the storage card but it doesn't seem to work, the cache stays internally?! Same for emails and attachments, they stay stored in the internal storage even though I tweaked the registry to have them saved externally?!
Thanks for your time and effort,

Any ideas anyone?
Thanks

I have an Axim X50v running the latest MagLite WM6 ROM. It's awesome, but it was running a bit slow, so I decided to try removing all my apps (saved to internal memory) and reinstalling them to my 16GB CF card. This has led to a vast and very noticeable performance improvement. However, if I open Pocket IE (again located on the device memory) it slows back to a crawl.
Is there a way to move Pocket IE to an external card so it won't have to mess up internal memory so much (also, caching pages to folders on CF cards instead of device memory). I found a guide that changed the cache path in WM2003 but the registry entry in question doesn't exist on WM6.

read my Web Browsing bible; in there, I've elaborated on this. Ina nutshell: use SKTools, MemMaid or similar apps to do the auto-relocation.
I used a registry editor to relocate the cache to:
/CF Card/Temporary Internet Files
However, it works great until you do a reset. Then, it makes a folder called "CF Card" in main memory (puts content in there) and then the actual card comes up as "CF Card2" and all the paths to apps on the CF card get messed up.
Is there anyway to just disable the cache altogether? I'm on WiFi so I'm not concerned with minimizing data transfer, just minimizing memory use. I don't browse offline either, no point to have old copies of useless pages saved to your device when navigation is broken in them.
Some advice for you, I would suggest not moving the temp files to your SD card. PIE does not do well at all when you do this. Every device I've done this on with either Scchap's Adv Config or MemMaid, it would just freeze PIE.

Agreed, there will surely be at least a performance hit, even with the fastest cards - let alone the crashes. (See my Web browser bible's benchmarks)

I relocated the cache and my PIE runs great...
I always install to my storage card but it seems that no matter what i do, my device memory keeps filling up! I ran critically low to 785 KB on a HTC Kaiser. i noticed that the programs put things in /Program Files on my device and on /Storage Card/Program Files
Questions!
In the memory app located in settings it says under the main tab that there is "Storage" and "Program". My "Storage" keeps getting full while my "program" has 39.31 MB free. What is the difference?
Can I simply place all the /program files folders over to my /storage card/program files folder and fix shortcuts or does the programs require to take space on my device itself?
I have NO pictures or videos saved on my device, only storage card, and save all attachments/etc to my storage card aswell. I have reflashed and ran memmaid and no use...
I have tried copying the program files folder over to my storage card. Have 40MB free now but all sorts of broken shortcuts. I have turned off "Shortcut To" in windows via a registry key but when I create shortcuts on the device the pesky "Shortcut to" is still showing. I have decided to flash to the lastest rom and let SAMACHI handle my cab installs...
Other Ideas:
Emails:
I sync my Hermes with a huge Outlook personal folder with lots of emails, tasks and notes. By default, email "bodies" are stored as binary files (*.mpb) in the \Windows\Messaging folder (may vary?). This folder can grow in size up to 10 - 15 MB depending on the number of emails. So in my case it wasn't enough to move the attachments to the Storage Card, I also had to move the emails "bodies" to the Storage Card. You can do this by moving the folder to the Storage Card AND changing the registry as explained in the WIKI (Change the location of email and attachments) to point the new folder location. BUT PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP OF EMAILS AND ATTACHMENTS IF YOU ATTEMPT THIS. Windows stores email headers separate from email "bodies" so if you move the "bodies" and the registry points to the wrong location, you might get empty emails and loose all data permanently if you sync. BE CAREFUL...Opera 9.5:
If you use Opera 9.5, you will loose another 10 - 12 MB in the \Application Data\Opera9 folder (may vary depending on opera version). In that case is better to run Opera from the Storage Card and tweak it so that its cache is also in the card.Themes:
Some custom made themes are in the 100 - 500 KB range and if you have many themes in the \Windows folder it can take a couple of megs of storage space. I moved all my themes to the card and keep only the one I use in the \Windows folder.
You could add more system memory by using a rom that has Ramdisk in it. In case you are not familiar, Ramdisk is a feature that basically uses Program memory as storage memory. It is similar to wm2003 and earlier, with the difference that you cannot manually allocate it. It has to be a hex edit in the rom itself. Now, regarding your question... program memory refers to the ram that is allocated for program use (as its name specifies). Basically, the more programs you have running, the lower this number gets. This is the memory resource of your device. Storage memory acts as your "hard drive", where you will place all your stuff (installation programs, pics, etc) provided that you do not send it to your storage card.
A lot of programs will install to device memory whether you instruct them to go in memory or not. Now, it should be perfectly possible to put the programs in the card as long as you rework the shortcuts...
I don't know which GPS program you are using (if any). But if you are, make sure that it is not downloading data into your device directly (things like maps, POIs, etc).
Try the first part of my post though. That might help you some.
Good luck!

I wouldn't recommend doing so though, you want all the ram you can get.... less ram equals less speed. If you have other space (such as your storage card) then use that.
I reccomend one of garmins rom, they usually come loaded with extra space (dk4 comes with like 110mb)
Certain programs have to be installed to the main memory, but if you install to the storage card.... you should only lose a couple kb to shortcuts and such...... something isn't adding up.
PS: The difference between storage and program:
Storage= Hard drive memory
Program= RAM memory
PSS: There is a program called clear temp you may want to try, it gets rid of alot of you temp files for you.
After flashing my device and reinstalling everything to the storage card, I have came to the conclusion that some programs install to the device anyway even if you select Install to Storage Card. I went from 110MB free down to 78mb, all in the program files folder! Time to be moving these and fixing shortcuts!
Hello, someone have been able to save Footprints on the storage card rather than the internal memory (small and full)?
I've taken a look to the registry but couldn't find anything. The structure in my case is different from the one described in thread 731863
Why the hell did they disabled the option to save on the storage card?
