Guest andy.hyde4 Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Nova for me is using 61mb which is ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tillaz Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Nah, Nova use 24mb here. Can you make a test zip for S3 laucher? Is it smooth? its random, youtube also looks like it abuses the ram lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tillaz Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 i wonder if it would be better to just use the youtube mobile site... get rid of the app from the system. its similar to the app but would only be running when your actually viewing it... bookmark it for easy access Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wso277 Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 i think im going to change the launcher as iv just noticed that nova launcher holds 29mb ram.... this is way to much for a launcher? im going to see how other launchers compare with this maybe i will include this http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1767559 nova can be installed form the market anyway.... I just switched to nova, and is consuming less than apex which i previously used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cyda Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) All launcher memory usage is based on widgets, home screens etc. I have 3 widgets (poweramp, fancy widget & picture widget) & 5 home screens and Nova takes about 47mb. I find this to be more or less the same with all launchers. Edited October 5, 2012 by Cyda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wso277 Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 how much did apex use? what is nova using ? Nova is using 36 mb with four screens and 2 widgets plus unread count. Apex was usually between 45-50 mb with the exact same thing minus the unread count. ah, so people that complain about low ram could be that they have there home screens packed with widgets... compared to people that say ram is good.. possibly they use few or non widgets anyway what are peoples thoughts on the youtube thing? My setup was that above and i had memory problems. After a day or two i always had 0 mb free, and got lots of redraws leaving an app. I'm now testing favaroo until you release the new version and have the exact same apps and no memory problems since tuesday. Always have around 50 mb free. (and i'm using power toggles which i didnt need with your rom). Not sure if the kernel could mess up memory management, i used one with your rom and i stopped using it with favaroo. Youtube being removed is not a problem for me.

Guest Higgy69 Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) Not sure about the worse battery on B06 with 2g toogle? Same light useage as B05 and I am on 3 days and 26% left. And I have hit 4-5 days ok. 3G uses a lot more battery than 2g so won't 2g toggle gain battery? I have email updating every 1 hour. Maybe if you set it to keep checking say every 15mins then yes, the gain is reduce. Regarding Youtube - never used it. But it was using up 7-8MB! So removing is ok by me. Nova - using 36MB, I just reduced to 3 homescreens (no mem difference), only shortcuts no widgets. No extras turned on.

Youtube being removed is not a problem for me. this is why i ask people only report bugs with a clean install, no add-ons / kernels etc... i personally have never been below 60mb free, i use stock kernel the kernel from stock B940 can be used, if anyone wants to give it a try and see if there are any differance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cyda Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Nova has 1 page and one setting widget but still uses 60mb. Edit: it just used 77mb If it bugs you that much just change launcher. I've never seen it that high myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cyda Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) Just an after though; I must admit I have not tried the last few versions because after installing the b934 based beta 1 this run so well I've never bothered updating. But, I have used that version of Infusion with both Omegamoon and Gemo Kernels, with Geno kernel being the most used, and I have never had any memory issues or lag or any of these reported oddities. Maybe this these problems come from the newer updates? That said, I always use V6 supercharger with all my ROMs. Maybe this cures the memory and lag issues? It does claim to do exactly that. @ Tillaz; I know you have used other tweaks but have you considered adding the latest V6 supercharger to one of your ROM as a test?

Guest tillaz Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 yeah the S3 launcher also uses 37MB ram and this is mega lite... has no settings... spouses it is normal them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pain_Deluxe Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 after 12hrs V1 still 65-75mb free. I thinks thats ok. Because there no lags or anything stuttering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cyda Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) The new V6 requires a modded services.jar not just a script, have you tried including this as well? And I know there are many script like V6 but maybe just do a test version using the proper official V6 supercharger from here, seriously it does make a difference from the testing I have done.

Guest dan nedan Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 to be honest i would rather try and avoid any launcher that has a paid version, as it seems to cause problems when the free version is in the system smart is very very short and....smart. and totally free. regarding the tests i ve sent you some results on pm. do you want to put them here?
