Guest trancer01 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) I see I usually have only about 180-230 MB of free RAM (depending on how many apps and its services I have running in the background) available for my applications. Now, my phone is supposed to have 512 MB of RAM on board. I know the android system takes up about 100-150 megs of RAM and that a part of RAM in also (probably??) reserved for the GPU (I`m guessing about 100 megs here), but about 250-300 MB of RAM should be available for the actual user installed applications. Is there any other way to increase free RAM besides uninstalling some of the apps? Edited June 28, 2011 by trancer01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need to uninstall apps to gain more RAM, the core system takes quite depending on how much there is avaliable we have 512MB, thus allowing it to grab 150-200MB. Also we have around 128MB reserved for the GPU. So basically we should have not so much left but its okay as the system knows when to free up memory for applications that need more space to allocate. Anyhow don't worry so much ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sebgus Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 It's a old windows habit to worry about RAM. The linux kernel has a quite good RAM-manager which closes programs that aren't used if the system needs more RAM. You can multitask pretty good with the 512 mb that is available on the Ideos X5.

Guest spirosbond Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 there is a good RAM script called Juwe (download link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111145). I use it and my free RAM is more now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
