So I decided to install safe strap , love it it works amazingly.question I had is I want to basically have to toms on phone one with as much memory as possible as well as stock with a decent amount of storage. So can I achieve that by deleting most apps on stock slot and creating another slot with the memory maxed out,? What's best way to do this? I want baja to be my daily use slot th Most storage but still have stock on the side...

Once you create a rom slot in safe strap you specify how much space each section gets, storage, system.... you have the option of deleting stock but if you dont touch it then it stays the same. You can activate your baja rom slot and it will stay on that even if you reboot or what not, then when you feel like stock you simply load up safestrap and activate the stock slot and youre back to stock

Right.well i made one already can I add more storage to the slot I created or do I have to create another one and do over?

Edit:better yet when I make a slot and set max size there is still a lot of remaining space.so when I'm in let's say slot 1 will I run out of space when I reach the space limit I I set on the slot or will the remains space available be used on that slot that I didn't add when I made the slot

Does the new rom run off of ext sd card memory or internal sd card memory?

Well I have the Rom stored to my ext sd. .I then flashed from safe strap with it on ext. Does that mean it stores on ext?

I wonder if any of the custom roms incorporate the spelling error underline mod?

I don't know what the he** that is. Ha

So will that storage(memory) be in a sense wasted?
Or will it be used once the space I made available in slot one is maxed. I'm using slot 1 by the way

Dont delete your all app for this . Just make backup of your app in your SD Card or move all application in your SD card. Then you will got the space for this.
Well I have a back up on my external.. But deleting the apps on stick slit which I won't be using much will give me more space for my slot 1 yes? Obviously......?...
Can someone get to my question about the free/available space please.

See how it says I only have 1.7 gb space...? I set the slots to max memory on all settings when I made the slot.

only way to do this is install your custom rom in the STOCK rom slot in safestrap. I was told not to do this but it worked for me and allowed me to have access to all the internal memory. As a backup I put a stock rom into one of the other slots, in this reversed order everything worked fine for me.

I have seen people here say not to do that, but it was the only way I could figure out that would not waste my sd card space. I prefer to have apps on my phone and misc. files on my sd card.

Can someone give me a link to the best thread with a complete explanation of the installation of safestrap 3.65, backing up stock rom, installing custom rom? Thanks

So do you know of a guide on how to do so with steps? And can you possibly post a link where I can get the stock rom?
