wanna ask sumtin, whats the best video converter to convert most file formats video into Desire?

and the nandroid backup is saved as what in my sd card?
*
It is in afolder " Nandroid". When you open it - you will see your phone ID folder ; open it and you will see the backup files. It is a good habit to rename it to something meaningful example PaulverR5dated 30jul , so that you can easily identify it. Good for those who often change rom and would like to restore back to an earlier version


This is avery good summary of the roms available for Desire:

when you have A2SD it will automatically installed all apps in there. to check the A2SD space just use the quick system info and you'll know that your ext partition is being used already.

Mod install location, when some apps doesnt install automatically to the A2SD then use it.

if you have Spare Parts in your ROM you can set your location for A2SD but the default is what you're looking for so dont touch it.

Btw guys, where to get Android keyboard eh? and swype too...want to try it la...

Clarify this : apps to sd two types. One is install to the fat32 portion , here you can view all your install files. The other type is install in the hidden partition commonly known as sd ext.
Depend on the rom, some gave you both options to choose. Froyo by default will install in the fat32 portion

Some rom will only install apps to sd ext , such you need to partition your card. If your rom do not install to sd ext, then no need to partition card

Modinstall is actual force install to sd. Some apps as not develop for sd install will appear as a blank logo in home screen if put there as a shortcut. App will still work fine. I find using mod install unreliable and at times cause phone unstable. After reinstall app back to phone memory problem goes away.

All system apps and widgets must install to phone not card

Question always ask: which is better? Actually no good final answer here. Based on my personal experience testing all the roms , I find the sd ext is more reliable , and stable but that's just me.

@draco82 : done flashing rom. How to know / see the partition of the SD card ? I see nothing.

You cannot see the details of the hidden partion ; neither can you view it using the file explorers. Use QUICK SYSTEM INFO a free app to check the size and free space of this hidden partion to confirm you have did it correctly and check space usage

You have to reformat your card again , not using the normal format : Use this tool - this is a very powerful tool - it can even be used to saved damaged partitions and restore it. All the sd ext hidden partitions will be restored back to FAT32. I have save 2 SD cards when the shop told me kaput and said buang-lah, beli baru :

A 16GB card format takes only less than a minute - very fast. The software is FREE

1. Complete the partition setup using Rom Manager until phone auto restart.
2. Wipe everything... cache.. dalvik.. etc.
3. Install 5.3
4. Reboot system and check "SD & Phone Storage"... but still no A2SD info there..

Any advice?
