Where is the complaint?
I'm using a Desire. Well known for being an awesome HTC phone with just one flaw: very little internal space. So, this sort of limitation has made me very aware of the space any app takes. I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 with infinite space (compared to the Desire, anyway), where I put all the heavy apps. But I still check the app size before downloading, out of habit.
Also, as a developer myself I can't help but wonder what is inside an app and what makes one super lean and others so heavy. The same way I wonder why apps usually ask for a zillion permissions they don't need.
- liquidsnake 15y agoThe limited space is one major flaw of the phone and it almost makes it unusable. That is why I suggest a custom ROM. I use one called Supernova and it is great, it is basically the stock ROM with the internal memory moved on the SD card. With it I have almost 2GB of internal memory and almost 100 applications. The instructions are not super user friendly but it is worth it!
- andersh 15y agoI did that. Phone is more prone to crashing and much slower even with a 10X speed SD card. Not sure I could recommend the palaver involved for what you get.
- MichaelJW 15y agoAnother alternative is to install Darktremor Apps2SD[1] on top of another ROM such as CM7. This will let you partition some of your SD card as extra "internal" space.
