.NET CF 2 and memory loss

[Guest notaliberal]

Before putting the .NET CF 2 on my phone (installed to the storage card), I always had somewhere near 15-18M free "program" memory. Now, after putting .NET on, the phone boots with the usual amount, but within 10-15 minutes I'm always down to 10-12M, and after a day I'm usually down to ~6-8M free.

Anybody else see this? So far, it hasn't degraded performance TOO much, but I just ordered a bluetooth stereo headset and will soon be putting the A2DP on my phone to take advantage of the stereo. I've read a couple places that the A2DP takes up a TON of program memory when in use, so I'm concerned that I'm going to run into trouble trying to use it when I've only got 6-10M free in the first place.

Any suggestions, knowledge, etc greatly appreciated. Anything I can do to get the .NET to stop hogging all the mem?

Thanks,

Jeff

if you apply .NET CF 2.0 SP1 then it should be ok - you can install on the storage card (if you are not hacking) and it will only copy the GAC files at some point to the local memory.

In addition - try copying over your temp internet files/outlook email onto the storage card to free up some space

Thanks for replying,

I think I have SP2 on there already, but now I don't remember for sure. Since there's no .NET "program" to run and look at the version, how can I determine the SP version I'm using?

Already storing all the temp files, etc, on the storage card. It's not the main storage memory that I'm missing, it's the "program" memory that's gone. By that I mean the memory that we can't store stuff in, and which increases/decreases depending on how many things you have running. That's typically down around 8M now as opposed to 15+M free...

Thanks,
