Hi all, especially the hacking staff (mamaich, xda2jojo, buzz_lightyear etc.) ;)

On the Magician forum, the folks has just found out how can you merge the Extended ROM and the Storage into a bigger "BigStorage" drive. The downside is that you have to install manually your extended ROM stuff since there is no extended ROM; but you will have a bigger storage, which stays when you Hardreset (Which I do a LOT, because i like playing with different ROMs :P). So, I'm asking you, is it possible to port this hack to BlueAngel?

KTamas,

This is what i have done. After upgrading my device with the latest ROM and installing all the cabs from extended rom, i emptied the extended rom and have it unlocked and unhide all the time and now i am using it has a storage option. Whenever i install any programs, active sync enables you to install in the extended rom. The only downsize is that if you want to hard reset you have to put back all the cabs back in the ext rom. I use sprite restore whenever i have to hard reset so i skip this step also. I guess you can try this option.

Of course you can do it, but i want one big storage instead of two storage folders...

Probably a dumb question: how do you unlock the extended rom ?
Thx in advance for answer
