Hello .. everybody !!
My biggest problem is the storege memory it is only 30 MB which is not enough 4 me.

1. i have i-mate pocket pc ( old model no keyboard ).
2. i used to have windows mobile 2003 OS which gives me 64 MB for storge mem. , 64 MB for Program mem. which is very good.
3. i have ugraded my i-mate to WM5 but it gives me only 30 MB for the Storege mem.
4. i installed all my programs into Ramdisk and they work prefectely.
5. But i want to increase my Storege mem to at least 64 MB if possiable.
6. i am running now ( 1.70a.96wwe rom - radio 1.08.00 - Protocol V. 1337.18 ) which is i feel the best no major issue's.
7. i have upgraded my i-mate to 2.01a.00WWE rom thinking that it will increase me Storege mem. but it is the same as my previous rom excpet camera issue solved and some other features.
8. i went back to my old rom 1.70a.96wwe

Please i need help for the Storege mem size if there is

thanks very much 4 our developers for their big effort and kindness

Hi ns700i,

Sounds as if you flashed to the wrong version of 2.01a for your needs. Try reflashing to 2.01a 64 which has 64 MB Prog memory and 64MB RamDisk (i.e. you old set up). You'll then also have 14MB of "Device" which you can increase to 30MB y using the DOC Tools to unlock (reallocate the old etdended memory which you ordinarily can't see). All this is posted over in buzzdev.net:-

Haii .. Mallow1

well thank you very much for your reply but i have no problems with my exsiting rom , and if i followed you i will get the same Storage mem 30 MB which i do have now ..
i just need to increase my Storage mem size .. i feel that this is the right Storage mem size i can get 4 my i-mate due to my i-mate hardware configuration.

thanks alot.

Hi ns700i,

You are welcome. Under WM5 30 MB is the max for "Storage" memory so for those wanting needing more "Storage" we have to use a RAMdisk as well to provide the additional storage allocation of memory. Hence my posting above would allow you to use 94 MB total storage for installed programs and user files leaving you 64 MB of mermory to run active programs with. So effectivly you do get more storage (it just gets labelled slightly differently and is split between 30 MB "Storgae" and 64 MB "Ramdisk" or "FlashDisk"). Hope this helps to clarify things. In all othere respects the ROM I suggested you flash to is exactly the same as the one you are currently running (just the memory allocation is different and will result in something very close to your old WM2003 split od storage/program memory).
