Guest Trancedancer Posted June 22, 2003 Report Posted June 22, 2003 Hi al! I have a question about installing software on your smartphone...are there any particular softwares that is better to install to the phone itself instead of installing it onto the SD-card? Like for example imov Messenger or other software... Or is it better to install all software on the SC-card to save the phones memory? I hope sombody knows something about this! =D Would be greatful! *HENRIK*
Guest davy Posted June 22, 2003 Report Posted June 22, 2003 Always install on the card if possible. davy
Guest Trancedancer Posted June 22, 2003 Report Posted June 22, 2003 Thanks! That is just what I have been doing... But is it so, that some software won't work properly or won't work at all if installing it on the SC-card, or will all programs work? *HENRIK*
Guest davy Posted June 22, 2003 Report Posted June 22, 2003 I think some apps don't run from the card (unsure which ones though). It's just a case of try it and see. If it doesn't work from the card there are only two options: 1.Install to phone 2. Don't install davy.
Guest morpheus2702 Posted June 22, 2003 Report Posted June 22, 2003 All I've installed on the card is Smart Explorer - one app that I would rather not be without if I swop cards (however unlikely)
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted June 22, 2003 Report Posted June 22, 2003 i install and always recommend installing to the card as apps will still use some space on the phone. As for using more than one card I just copy my must have apps on each card. When doing this make sure it's an exact copy from the original card.
Guest Trancedancer Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 Thanks for the good advice! I think I'll do as you...I'll install most of my programs and games to the SD-card and if there is a VERY important program for me, and I switch memory-cards, I'll copy the exact files so I can still use the same programs when using another SC-card! Great idea! :lol:
Guest seb2003 Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 Will the program load faster when it's stored on the phone or is it the same as if it was stored on SD?
Guest morpheus2702 Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 As far as I can tell, makes no difference
Guest noeldillabough Posted June 24, 2003 Report Posted June 24, 2003 Since the storage area of a phone is flash anyway the speed should be identical
