iPhone Hacks: Running out of Application space on your iPhone or touch?

So I used the utility and it works really well with a few exceptions that some have mentioned before. First, there are a choice few apps that will not live outside of the default Applications folder and will crash if you try and run them from the linked folder.

Second, Customize doesn't read the new folder so you can't organize those apps that you have moved.

Also, Installer can't uninstall the apps because it doesn't know where they are so it just removes the information from Installer, rather than removing the application.

Are these community wide problems that need to be addressed or is there a better solution that will work across the board?

Also, du didn't work, got a command not found. Any other suggestions on how we can check free space. I would love to see something like iStat Pro (Mac OS X widget) in the form of an IpT/Iphone app.

Can this be done using a pc? if so, how?

And I spelled Erica wrong. Kill me.

Hi Erika,
No commentary, nothing technical. Just a serious thanks for all you've done to make my iPhone less boring. I've been a bouncer for 25 tears which mainly involves long periods of boredom punctuated by sporadic insanity. My iPhone now gets me through the dismal times. You are appreciated.
Thanks again,
Steve D

no luck lindsey, unfortunately the iphone kernel mount does not support the --bind option, i wonder why though, is it like that on any mac? i don't want to symlink stuff on the iPhone though, no thanks it is just too much of a quick and dirty hack. 300mb is enough for the apps that anyone should NEED anyways so far. Myself, i just uninstalled a few things that i had installed just to have them in case i ever needed them..

if you want more space just to install NES/GBA roms you can symlink those, or any dictionaries you want, but there is no reason to create symlinks to critical apps.. that's the way i see it at least

Great hack! It works perfectly... I just had to copy the apps in the /private/var/root/Applications, ls -fs them and no more space problems!

how do i go to the ipod touchs path, so i can enter this terminal command? PLZ provide a step-by-step instruction including the way how you get to the folder where the command has to be used, for newbees :/

if mount --bind is supported, why not create a directory in Media and mount --bind it to the apps dir, then even apps with absolute paths will work.. im not familiar with osx and i got my iphone just a few days and haven't tried it, but it should work way better than a symlink, you just have to add the command in fstab too

i installed the utilities already, but they are no app of itself on the ipod touch, so i guess its terminal stuff. just wanted to add that
