How do I do it? I downloaded the software but I am having issues trying to get it on the mytouch
You're gonna have to wait as it seems the APL for the new mytouch3g is "perfect" and can't be rooted yet.
Not only that but if you have the 32B board, like the google ion, it's going to be very very slow.

So is the mytouch different then the european magic?? i know the rogers magic has more ram but i thought the mytouch and european magic were the same?
Im asking this because i have seen the hero rom running fine on the magic (not rogers)
here is a vid
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TKOF-zBU2I
but maybe that is a rogers magic, not too sure. But even so i have seen it running on the dream so?
Once you get the swapped and everything setup correctly with a good class 6 card hero runs fine on the ion. As a matter of fact I have it running much better then any build I have tried for the g1 the only slowness I have is coming back to the home screen from using the browser and even then it is only at most 30 seconds.
But as of right now the mytouch is not rootable yet. Currently there is no way to get arround the security of the spl. Fastboot and adb don't work. Do us a favor go into your bootloader and post all the information that come up there for us just as a record for consistancy checking. Plus I know my ion came with a different version just as a comparison. So far I haven't seen the bootloader of the mytouch with certainty yet. If it says "S-off G" there may be hope. The only way I can figure of doing it id trying to get an nbh file for it like the G1 and building in a modified spl. I have tried to decipher the one for G1 with no luck yet. Can't even really pick it apart. Really locked down it seems with some form on encryption.
BTW this was typed on the ion running hero by fatal1ty v 1.4
yeah i figured that also as people who use the G1 who is running hero runs it perfect now no lag nothing so im sure the same method applied to the G1 can be applied to the mytouch 3g
Class 6
I am going to have to stand corrected regarding slowness. I've been watching the videos of hero on normal speed. Then I realize something. Something that should have hit me in the face considering I am in the IT business. Swap Space. That dang thing is stored on the SD card and I am running on a 16GB SDHC Class 2. Then I retried the same with 8GB SDHC Class 4. There is a huge difference. I am going to get a class 6 8GB tomorrow. Things should run fine with a decent class 6 card.
What I did not realize initially was that he (the rom maker) put the swap on the SD card which is a damn good idea. Something I'd have done but... I guess I was not thinking.

do the swap space have to be on the microsd what about the phone internal memory... also how do you know the class of your micosd i got a 16gb i hope i don't have to replace it..and what about using ext4 for partitions would that boost up speed?

It should say the class speed on the microsd itself. If it doesn't say then its most likely a Class 2.

I have the google ion and it is slow even with the swap file on my class 6 microsd. It still is usable but not as smooth as it would be on the 32A version of the magic. I just reflashed to the nk02's ION v4 and its very fast. You should try that. nk02's ion rom doesn't have the hero added stuff.
thanks just seen the 2 on it lol i feel dumb guess i got to get another one...
I went to class 4 and there was an improvement. On class 6, improvement was not that noticeable.

Not a fan of Sense, but it is at least bearable on HDPI devices. I used the official HTC RUU from the UK as a base, and now have a bootable, somewhat working Froyo ROM for the CDMA Desire.
It is by no means a daily ROM. I'm uploading here so we can get some testers and help from other developers. Since I'm usually occupied writing code for a living, any help is welcomed and appreciated.
What's working?
Audio, incoming/outgoing calls, SMS, data (works, but flaky), camera, GPS (needs more testing to really be given a thumbs up), backlight, vibration, live wallpapers
What's not working?
Wifi, BT, orientation, lights, MMS, and I'm sure much more.
What's included that isn't stock?
Busybox, DarkTremor apps2sd, root shell, deodexed
Currently, it's booting off of the stock 2.6.29 kernel and modules. I was able to get the 2.6.35 Cyanogen kernel to boot, but did not get all drivers/modules loading properly. I will be looking into that soon as well as possibly using the Incredible ROM as a base.
What can I do to help?
Download, test, tweak, get in touch with me. Twitter or PM on here will work. Pay attention to this thread, I will keep it updated. I look forward to your feedback.

Remember to wipe before flashing.

good luck with everything i will give this a try once it becomes a little more stable. nice to see some cdma roms out here
I was correct in assuming we'd have success with the Droid Incredible build. Testing now and will tweak more tomorrow, stay tuned for updates.
Wonderful news!! I have been using the CM6 nightly on my Cell South with only a MMS bug but I will def rock out DPhase's ROM once it gets a little more stable. I am so excited to see a developer from Cell South! Can't wait to buy you a beer. I use my phone for work but I will flash this weekend to check it out and test for sure. I have a source that is putting the release of a OTA 2.2 on cell south to no earlier than the first quarter of '11 at best.

Have you had any issues with data on CM6?
I have been using CM6 as well on my cell south desire, I have not experienced any data issues. But it has only been a couple days since flash.
It seems a little slow but I think that is more Cell South than anything. I jump on wifi any chance I get. Still no MMS no matter what size file I try to send.
I would love to help with this... thank you for looking into it. Since it is not a "daily" rom, I really cannot run it too long until WiFi is fixed.
By lights is that the Message LED only correct? Or is it the Camera LED too?
Thanks again for starting this project! I would hope that you get the cyanogen kernel working, because I want the overclock
what can i do to help with this? i have a lot of time at work. but am far from a developer. CM6.1 is well on its way. id like to test for more devs. let me know what i can do. im flashing your rom now. then im going to try your MIUI

Ok great... I'll load this up sometime tomorrow. I am doing a battery test on my phone today to see how CM6 compares to the 2.1 stock sense rom.
I'm in
I'm onboard i've been running your 2.2 w/o sice all day it works great. There have been a few things and i am sure i will find more in the next few days. But so far so good i will write in that thread what i find.But i am also gonna give this a shot tonight so i will hit you back with what happens.
hell yeah
After just 20 minutes of using this it is the [email protected]#$ other than the things you mentioned it is running great keep it up.
i just installed this and have been playing with it for an hour,and OMFG it is so sweet,thank you so much for working on this ROM. i will post any bugs i come across and hope it help to build better sense UI froyo ROMS for the CDMA desire!
thank you again! loving this so much right now i feel like a kid on Christmas!
i have formatted and partitioned my sd card ,the first one is 6 gigs fat32 and the 2nd is 2 gigs ext2. i cant get the SD card to show up on the phone,says its unmounted??? is this a known bug or something new. or am i doing something wrong? i will try taking the partition out and leaving it as 8 gigs fat32, however i thought that for APPS2SD needed a ext2 partition?
EDIT.... i deleted the ext partition and left the sd card as a full 8 gigs (7.65 gigs) fat32 and now this rom will see the sd card,however it will not move apps to the sd card.....
I don't think you are supposed to have an EXT partition more than about 1GB. That might be part of your problem.

apps2sd will not work with fat32 partitions. You must have an ext partition, recreate but don't go over a gig.
Sorry Dphase I didn't get a chance to load it up today... I had alot on my plate today. I will give it a shot tomorrow night and probably through the weekend. How is the battery life on this compared to 2.1? I am getting double the battery life on 2.2 cyanogen for the BravoC than I did with the stock rom, so I am having trouble getting myself to switch at this point.

thank you, i will try to recreate a smaller partition now and try again.
EDIT.. I cleaned up the sd card and started from scratch, set my fat32,then created a 512mb in ext2,(1st partition is fat32,2nd is ext2) same problem. when i start the phone it says on the top of the screen "safe to remove SD card" message goes away,then i go to settings/SD card it says the card is unavailable.
but if i format the whole card as fat32 it will show up and work for everything BUT apps2sd. i know that i wont be able to move apps till i get a ext partition on the card, i just cant get the phone to see the sd card after i set it up.
i have an htc hero with stock sprint rom. I am getting a warning saying i have no memory left on the phone. is there a program that can move apps to the sd card or is there a third party rom that will enable me to move apps to the sd card much like the froyo 2.2.1? thanks
Apps2SD should be what you're looking for, all the custom ROM's I've used seem to have it pre-installed which lets you move certain apps to your memory card. I'm sure you can download it of the marketplace or google.

Ok, I believe that in order to use apps2sd requires a Froyo or above rom. If I'm mistaken I'm sure someone here will jump all over my error LOL. In order to use one of these roms and apps2sd or any other such memory enhancing program you first need to be rooted and have custom recovery installed. Once you've done that if you haven't already, there are multiple froyo & gingerbread based roms available in the developement section of the forum....For stability purposes CM7 or AOSP would be an ideal place to start. Keep in mind when you start installing custom roms you have to spend a little more time maintaining your phone to keep it working well.
I'd say the simplest way (if your rooted) is to use titanium backup. You can move whatever you want to the SD card.

Check out Link2SD. You will have to create a second partition on your sd card but then the app can selectively move&link apk, dex, and lib files.

Thank you bierce for your insightful and knowledgeable comment. Remember, sometimes you should keep your meaningless thoughts in your little head. With such insightful and educated responses like that one above, there is absolutely no question in my mind how the south lost the war! Now to educate you for a minute, the hero stock rom, is 2.1 and does not provide a means to move apps. Also, with its limited memory, it does not take but a few apps today to consume what little memory the hero has to offer.
Firerat!! You'll love it.

I just picked up a Droid Charge a few weeks ago. I am digging the phone, but i am a long-time user switching from a Droid X which had 16gb internal storage. It is a brutal culture shock to say the least. I am always checking out new games and apps and have a significant collection. In other words, i need the storage! Especially since there are many apps and games that do not support move-to-sd card feature. Running out of storage was something i never had to even think about until now. It's really the only major gripe i have with the phone, but it's a major gripe considering the Charge only has a measely 1GB of internal storage. Ug.
Out of habit, i move all the apps to my SD card when i can. "When I can..." is the problem. I never had to use an "apps2sd" app before, but i've seen some versions for Froyo in passing. Now that i actually have a severe need to move some apps to the SD card (e.g. Let's Golf 2 - a fairly large game), i was having trouble spotting an apps2SD app that might work on Gingerbread.
[Q] Does anyone have a version (or know of a version) of an Apps2SD app that works for Gingerbread 2.3.4 (EP1F)? I am desperate to move some of these stubborn apps. It's gotten frustrating enough to tempt me into thinking about going back to my X. It would be wonderful if someone could help point me in the right direction!
For what it's worth i am on the leaked TW stock rom with 2.3.4 (+CWM+Voodoo) found in v2 of "The Charge Kit."
Thanks!
I agree!!! I recently got a Droid Charge myself and have grown more and more frustrated with having to constantly move every single app, no matter the size, to the SD card. It really is a pain. Sooo, if anyone has any suggestions, I'd really appreciate it too!
Thanx for posting about this, TheShade!

You can "force" apps to SD with Titanium Backup. However, the ones that don't support APP2SD will not run until you move them back to internal memory.
Also, I think you would be wise to request this to be moved to General. Lot more traffic there.

Thanks kvswim! Appreciate the suggestion.
Just wanted to say thanks again kvswim, for the suggestions. I have had Titanium for a while now. Shamefully, i had not fully explored some of the batch options. Tho I am still hoping to find a gingerbread version of an apps2sd app which allows u to force the stubborn apps to the sd card, Titanium has some nice options that I hadn't noticed before.
I was able to use Titanium to force-move Lets Golf 2 and some other larger games to the sd card. I am also able to run all of these games and apps with no problems. Sweet! This freed up quite a bit of storage for now. I have an even greater respect and appreciation for Titanium now.
Thanks, again!
Hello, my question might be a bit silly despite the fact that our Sensation has 1gb internal memory for apps and games. However, for a user like me, it seems to be not enough. I just purchased a class 10 32gb memory card and I plan to do app2sd like I did on my brother's HTC Explorer. However, I am not sure if our sensation supports moving apps using app2sd or link2d. I also don't really know how to configure app2sd. For HTC Explorer, the app2sd is already built in the custom rom.
Thanks in advance.

actually you don't need app2sd to move apps in sd.it can be done from settings

Since you're already running ViperS which is an ICS ROM, you can easily move those apps (of course apps which are supported to be moved to SD). You just have to go to Settings -> Apps and you should see a list of apps under USB Storage, those are the apps that can be moved to SD. Some apps will automatically move to SD once you've installed them and you can see a tick mark there. Those apps without a tick mark, you can tap on it and then select Move to SD.

Thanks for your responses. Fyi, I have already done that method and also I am already running out of memory. I saw my brother's phone which uses a2sdgui on his rom, no matter how much he installed stuff, internal memory usage is below 30mb. That's why I'm asking if I can use a2sd/app2sd method. Or is it just the same?

it's an option, but not the only way
No, its not the same. You need to install a2sd+ script, make ext4 partition on your sd and then apps will install on sd.
1. It will slow phone down
2. Not sure wherever it will work, check with both script and ROM developers.
3. Don't expect much help on that from devs, as for majority of people 1gb is more than enough.

it is simply like in the pc.wherever you are running anything to pc from c it reads/writes it faster than running it from external harddrive disk
always an internal storage has faster read\write than external
