Root To root or not to root? Memory space issues!

[SHiFT3R]

No, I haven't downloaded any extra widget for HTC Sense.
So why do I only have 13mb free on my internal phone memory?
Here is a list of some apps installed on my internal phone memory and can't be moved:
Adobe Flash Player 10.1 12.40mb
Facebook 3.05mb
Gmail 3.70
Maps 3.48mb
Contacts Storage 2.75mb
Voice Search 2.45mb
HTC Sense 2.29mb
Internet 1.32mb
Mail 1.07mb
Settings 0.88mb
Market 860k
Weather market 848k
Messages 820k
Dialer Storage 596k
3G Watchdog 436k
Media Storage 320k
HTC Checkin Service 232k
RSS Reader 204k
News and Weather 152k

And many more with really low mb space

All of the apps you get on a stock ROM are included in the ROM and take up none of your space. Updates to them however do take up space, and that can be moved to the sdcard with A2SD+. Some ROMs update them in the ROM area instead (e.g. mine) and so won't take up any space on your internal storage or your sdcard.

I have the stock OTA 2.10.405.2.
All of the applications I've listed cannot be moved by App 2 SD and they consume space on my internal phone memory. I cleared some data from application management section. I now have 37.17mb free. So I suppose that I will have to leave with this. Every application that is part of the ROM (including stock) does not consume extra internal memory. So the rest of the 147.62mb is what? ROM (and those apps that are contained to ROM)?


PS: With a2sd+ you mean THIS ONE right?

Apps that are included with the rom do not take up space, believe me, I know this.

I've already given you a link for a rooted stock ROM that supports A2SD+ and updated system apps, not sure what more you want.

(As a comparison my phone with rooted stock rom has about 15 apps downloaded, Google apps, Facebook and Flash all updated to the latest version, and I have 103mb internal free and A2SD+ is not installed).

@SHiFT3R,

Try the Neophyte AuraxTSense or NexTSense ROMS. I have the same issue with ROMS. I love the Sense widgets but want more functionality and wanted to move my apps to SDcard to save Internal memory.

These preserve the Sense UI while providing other functionality like A2SD. You will need to partition your sdcard to create an ext2,ext3, or ext4 partition, though that is not hard.

My signature contains the info you need if you decide to go with Neophyte. Read the features link.

Nothing special. I just want to know what are these 147mb in my phone memory, that's all
