I had long time low space problem with my old HTC Desire, so I was forced on to ignore all application updates and new software installation means to remove some existing one. Actually I had accepted my fate and I read reviews to buy new mobile phone until I heard accidentally about Link2SD.
My phone was already rooted and there was excellent tutorial how to install Link2SD software. I have never tried before any custom ROMs so my phone has HTC stock ROM with Android 2.2.Everything go smoothly until I try to run Link2SD first time. It came out that Desire has additional obstacles to copy/move system software - S-OFF.
I find 2 solutions - first one was deprecated and second one was real beta, so not very promising situation :-( My decision was to use older one, because HTC Desire was first phone supported by this software. I followed installation instructions and everything went without problems. There was one side effect - new splash screen instead of HTC "brilliantly quiet" screen, but at this moment it does not disturb me.
So my "low space" problem was resolved and I was able to install additional software to my phone. Afterward I know that this was only small step in my long phone upgrade path :-)
