Yes, most 4+ ROM's require more space for the system. You need to flash the stock hboot in order to use this ROM.Hi out there...
Do i need a special HBoot for the newer Roms ?
I tried to flash that v6.3 Rom and during flash i always see a line some
symlinks cannot be set...aborted.
ATM i have the CM7r2 hboot installed (and ext4 recovery).

On the other hand, I have a question about the storage issue, especially when updating big apps like Whatsapp. Every time I receive this annoying message about insufficient storage, the only way around it which I know of is to reformat the entire ROM and start from scratch again (which is a painstaking task). Using an earlier recovery file does not resolve the issue either. Is there no way around this or is it simply that I have really reached the limit? Right now I have about 56 apps including system apps installed. Using a 32gb microSD as an external memory drive. Any help would be much appreciated.
P.S. I also have the All-in-One Toolbox installed. Not sure if it interferes with any of the ROM's a2sd setup.
Cheers,
Ed
You shouldn't have to install everything again.
It depends on which version of the ROM, which hboot it's installed on, and what your actual remaining internal memory on your /data partition is.
It doesn't really matter about your 32GB card. You have to make sure it's partitioned correctly with gparted or 4EXT recovery only, nothing else. Then follow the A2SD instructions. Keep apps on internal to trick them to sd-ext, don't 'move to SD'.
The ROM sometimes needs to 'see' enough free internal memory to update apps with A2SD. It thinks it is installing to your /data partition, but will actually go do /sd-ext. So to trick it, you can titanium backup some apps to free a bit more space on /data until there's enough, update the apps like WhatsApp, then restore your uninstalled apps.
Always check that your partitions are filling up correctly with something like DiskUsage. Your internal memory is your /data partition. If A2SD is setup correctly, your app data (preferences, settings etc) will be on /data. Your apps and dalvik will be moved to sd-ext.
VJ, cook a 4.4 ROM for us, pretty pleeease :angel:
I experience the same problem as @dwinovax. I cannot install any app that is >25MB in size (i.e. Facebook/Dropbox). I had this issue after using this ROM for few months in August, with all these apps installed - the problem was, I couldn't update them. Now, after changing sd-ext partition size to 1,5GB (1GB previously), and wiping everything I simply cannot install bigger apps. I can't see what the reason is, as every partition has sufficient storage available ("df" output in attachment). I use JellyBean hboot - may that be a problem?
Well, as for now I am using these services the way you suggested, but it's bugging me. I have the storage space required, but still I cannot install these apps. It's not I can't live without them - just knowing it was working not so much time ago makes me think - what had changed?I have moved on to a new HTC One (m7). :laugh:. But concerning your problem...try using alternate apps instead like X-plore for linking to dropbox. And accessing fb thru the browser. Just leave enough space (~30mb) at all times in the ROM.
Cheers,
Ed

Anyway, thanks for Your answer. I was a happy user of HTC One S (Z520e), but then my AMOLED screen died (or burnt out) after my warranty period, so I was forced to go back to my old Desire, and to be honest, after upgrading to UHS-I class card, I am surprised how fast this thing can be. Something that was just temporary solution in July, just keeps working till now
