WM6 doesn't release memory - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

HI Guys,
I have got a problem, after using offical WM6 ROM. I found out that it doesn't release memory.
Everytime after I reset, program memory is about 28M, but after couple mins or hours using. It will down to 16-22M(but I have checked that there is nothing running on background), and the remain memory will never be back!
I have only a few programs installed. (Isilo, resco explorer, resco viewer, resco plug-in, some games on card and kasier home today plug-in)
I really have no idea and I can feel that it slows down my X01HT...sigh....so I have to reset it again and again. It really annoying me a lot!
Thanks a lot guys!

I had the same problem (before recently switching to a cooked ROM based on official). I used FreeUpRam program like every 10 minutes. Sucked! Use one of the cooked ROMs and it will fix it for you - Black, vp3g, sleuth (sorry if I missed any).

Thanks very much!
That's very annoying.
I have been using Palm (actually is CLIE TH55) for PDA and X01HT for phone and mobile internet.
Palm OS is much better

Oxios Hibernate and Oxios CloseApps
I use Oxios Hibernate and Oxios CloseApps with great results on my Wizard. Don't know if it works with the Hermes though. It's worth a try.

(Prevention?) ROM newer than AKU3.5 WMP play 3 to 4 seconds problem

Hope my little input could help to prevent it from playing just only 3 to 4 seconds.
I am using Helmi AKU3.5 v1.3 now, but from all the threads, it seems to be a common problem in many versions of the ROM.
For my situation, normally immediately after soft reset, WMP plays with no problem.
There is a little Apps inside Helmi AKU3.5 v1.3 called "Close Apps". This problem will come 100% after I run "Close Apps" to regain memory.
To prevent it and to avoid recovery reset, I will only run 'Close Apps" with WMP still runnning.
My guess is "Close Apps" clear something important for WMP.
Let us know if there is another way to reproduce the problem.
Re
hey!!
i don't know bout this problem but i had a similar problem with the " close app" application in the 3.3 rom
when i tried to run ie after running this app it would automatically close after loading the page (not the homepage).
P.S Since you have crossbow installed could u do me a favour??? i wanted to see how a couple of themes i have made look in crossbow...if i send you one of them could you send me the screenshot???
Hi guys.
Actually I do not use WMP almost at all because I prefer other players, so I never experienced this problem but....
I suggest you to use oxios hibernate instead of closeapps. Hibernate does not close any running apps but releases ram which can be still occupied after a closed app. Besides hibernate I often check the hidden processes with iTaskmanager (part of Helmi's ROMs but you can get it separately) and often found that there are some processes useless at the moment e.g. voicecmd.exe (can eat 2 megs) poutlook, tmail, etc.
I guess if you use hibernate you will avoid 3 sec problem of WMP... not 100% sure...

My is AKU3.5, not crossbow.
The crossbow theme does not look too good, as I do not like dirty green colour, reminds me of the army uniform.
There is quite a couple of screen shots already in this forum, just search and you see plenty.
To have crossbow look, you do not need to install crossbow, search again it this forum, you will find some crossbow *.tsk files. copy it into the \windows directory and you can select it in the Today.

Thanks, I will try.
But 'close app' way to produce this problem may not be the only way.
Looks like I do not see this problem after using Hibernate.
I use the HTC Task Manager provided in Jwrights 2.06/08 Crossbow ROM and it works really well... I have seen posts about this problem and it does seem to be the ''close app" that causes the issue.

WM6 memory leaks is worse than WM5?

I just upgraded to WM6 and I installed the same applications which were installed back when I have WM5. One of them if SpB Plus, whereby I put the RAM icon (for running program) at the 1st tab.
I noticed that after running the same applications I typically used back in WM5 (messaging, Pocket Information, SpB Insight, Phone Alarm, etc.), WM6 didn't release the memory back as much as WM5.
Example (after running the above program, then closing all of them - NOT minimizing:
WM5: ~21 Mb
WM6: ~ 18 Mb
I tried this about 4 times with 2 separate 8525, one running WM5 and the other WM6.
Forgot to mention: the file that seems to keep growing after opening/closing application is filesys, checked using MemMaid.
Anyone experienced this?
Which version of WM6 are you running?
I am using LVSW Edition (2007-03-15). I haven't tried the 2007-03-20 since I get really tried re-installing different WM6 ROM and re-installing the apps over and over again. Sooo.. I am waiting to see if other have the same problem with various version of WM6 before plunging myself for another 4 hours of reinstalling everything.

I was about to, but I held back because I want to ask if anyone, who have either the LSV or the Black WM6 ROM can tell me if they have the same issue, simply just by looking at the RAM level.
Not that I am lazy, but I have gone on installing ROM so many times it's just not fun anymore and hoping that someone can just post about the memory issue.
UPDATE: I found out that using SkTools "FreeRam" tool, I can free up the memory, but not by much (extra ~1-2 Mb).

well y dont you install the ROM... and use Task Manager to see how much memory each program is using... and do bechmark tests like every hour or so if your really worried about it that much...
Read my post above: installing ROM and re-installing everything is not a 30 minutes gig. Plus, a real testing will involve normal usage, not just running 1-2 apps and watching the screen.
I merely asking for the community assistance for those who have installed the Black version or has noticed similar problem.
Why are you giving me nasty remarks? TIred of installing ROMS?

calm down... im not giving nasty remarks...
was mierly suggesting that you try it out... and leave task manager running and open the applications you are worried about to actually see if it is releasing the memory or not...
i also am sick of flashing ROMs everyday... but thats how you get to learn about different ROMs and their flaws...
I would suggest bringing this to SPB's attention as you seem to have a difference with WM5 and WM6. If this is a must app for you, then until SPB updates their software to be more friendly with the yet-to-be release crossbow OS, you should probably stick to WM5... think of all the extra time you'll have left over to do other things than install and test... especially if it's not fun for you.
Since the first WM6 ROM was made available, I've received WM6 compatible released software from SBSH, Wisbar, CE-Star (Chinese), Conduits, and CodeCity.
Here's one example:
http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10476
We got our hands on the ROM before developers got their hands on the SDK. He got the SDK 06MAR and identified challenges posed by the new theme. 10MAR confirmed he'll a new rendering engine for the WM6 product t WBL. 16MAR released the update. Nicely done Chris.
And many thanks to the Chef's who continue releasing build improvements that address both shortcomings of the original ROM and additions that make some of the features more convenient.
Walshieau, many thanks to you also for your many informative and helpful posts and contributions to the XDA community.

I don't use SPB anything, any after about a day or so, I get about 19MB free. A fresh soft reset, gives me 25MB free.
@darkjedi
If the task manager icon is present in the settings menu (go to start>settings>system(tab)>task manager) then tick the top two boxes and when you press the X button it will actually exit the program you are using. You may have many programs running in the background which you are unaware of, by soft resetting this clears the memory and the programs present are those on startup.
@lanwarrior
Version 0.2 of WMXL has a memory cache fix cab, not sure if this will work on LVSW but it is worth a shot, the memory usage improves after installing this, might be worth a shot....if all else fails perform a hard reset and then maybe flash a different WM6 ROM (Black v1.2 or WMXL 0.2??).
I'm actually using the HTC Task Manager, and am closing the apps. I'm using LVSW 3-15-07 ROM. It's working great. It's not really a complaint honestly, just a little annoyance.
I used to love SPB Pocket Plus mainly for its X Button app, Battery meter and quick launch on today screen.
I did find it used to chomp extra resources and every time I returned to the today screen there was always a second or 2 pause while the today screen plugin refreshed.
I've since switched to Batti, Scott Seligman's Launcher and the HTC Task Manager. Same functionality but way less on system resources and memory.

Thanks for mentioning alternates to SPB PP, which is a disaster on Black v 1.2, in my and other's experience. I am going to get them and give them a try.
I mentioned SpB plus because I use their memory meter to monitor the memory usage for the device, irrespective of the applications, SPb or not.
I am going to remove SPB Plus, but I think this is not the primary cause. I have SpB Plus running overnight with no other applications running (today's plug-in or messaging auto-connect) and the memory usage didn't change.
I think it's more of opening and closing applications, whatever they are.
Those who are using NON-SPB applications but monitor their memory using whatever you have, let us know if the memory usage decrease far more than WM5 over time when you open and close applications.

If you want to run SPB Pocket Plus, do not try Black edition. It has compatability issue. (I personally will not try any Black Edition again unless more than 10 people confirm the issue has solved.)
I need my phone device for work, can't be beta tester all the time...(more than 15 reflash on same Black Edition. Even the creator of ROM indicate the fixed, but he hasn'y really test it.... Personally, I like Black edition the most, but....)
I am currently running LVSW late edition, very stable. I am running OS only with more space edition. Radio 1.38.0.10 seems to enhance the battery life. Maybe I am using Black Edition's black theme.

Since these cooked WM6 roms available (Vanilla, WMXL, Black, LVSW, 3DES.1) are all based on early (possibly beta) versions of WM6 you WILL be beta testing them until we can get a fully stable version.
Its thanks to hard working individuals like Kyphur, walshieau, jasjamming, lvsw, olipro, pof et all ~(apologies if ive missed anyone out that REALLY should be mentioned) that these ROMs are getting more and more stable every time a new version is released, if you dont like using them then revert back to WM5. But dont go wragging on the authors just because software DESIGNED FOR WM5 doesnt work on them.
Id suggest cooking your own WM6 version as it may help you appreciate the work put into these releases....free of charge may i add.

Pocket Plus & ilauncher like?

Hi
As spoken in other threads, pocketplus is the source of memory leak on some of the WM6 roms. I am looking for a program which is able to do more or less the same (memory meters & shortcut on my today screen is what I need most). I have tried ilauncher but it was a little unstable and really painfull to setup on my device.
I am currently using the today plugin of resco explorer 2007 beta. It works quite good but something a little more customisable would be greater.
Thank you in advance

How about O2plus?

memory leak solved?????

i m using artemis touch 4.0 full with cube from meschle
i was not facing such big memory leaks as they were on toms B&B 5.0
just a few days ago i installed SPB mobile shell 2.0 (got it frm development n hacking forum)as i had the spb now screen i disabled the htc home n surprisingly now the device gives around abt 23 mb free memory n it never leaks!!!!!!!!!!
is the htc home responsible for memory leak ????
Memory leak
I am facing this huge memory leak with AJE 2.0 French Rom.
Need to softreset every 2 or 3 days.
Tried to disable HTC home. (Did it from "parameters, today, elements, unchecking HTC Home). Then i softreset and get 23MB.
After a while goes down to about 20MB. Start some applications one after the otherphone, calendar, contacts, MioMap, Wifi, Bluetooth)
went down to 18MB. Run Oxios hibernate, and i am back with 20MB.
Seem to stay here at 20 MB. Will see with time.
You are right "HTC Home" has something to do with memory leak, but
is it alone? Is this pb from HTC, Microsoft?
I do not understand why this pb is not yet solved! If this will not be fixed soon, everyone having this anoying pb, will switch to Iphone!
Thank you "sheennick123456" reporting this case. I cannot understand the silence from AJE, Tom, about this.

Memory leak confirmed
Hi sheennick123456, I have been using all the ROM's posted here for the last 2 years, [a BIG thanks to all developers who posted these fine ROM's for us all to play with..] and have found the same memory leak as reported by you, thanks for starting a very good thread to discuss this issue.
Since your post I decided to test my ROM's starting with my original O2 WM6 ROM (RUU_Artemis_O2_UK_3.4.206.2_4.1.13.50_03.06.90_Ship) which I have been using for a few days now, and with the below programs to test each ROM installed, and so far I have had only a minor 1Mb leak that is almost all recover using Hibernate program.
I am now going to try the Artemis Vanilla 4.01 ROM tonight with the same programs and will report back friday, UPDATE- same as original ROM with no leak I coulden't recover using hibernate.
O2 ROM Free RAM Approx: (Storage 43 - Program 23) minimal leak 1Mb
Artemis Vanilla 4.01 (Storage 47 - Program 24) minimal leak 1Mb
Programs used whilst testing:
izen QuickAcces Today 1.01
UltimateLauncher 1.2
BatteryStatus 1.05.001 (build 0272)
Task Manager 2.0 (build 30995)
Radio Scheduler 01.00.01
Google Maps 2.0.0.12
Thanks again to all at XDA-Developers for providing all the info and tools for us all to use...
Now testing next 2 ROM's..
As per my previous post there were no notable memory leaks with the original O2 rom and the Artemis Vanilla 4.01 rom, (no cube installed on these)
I am now going to test the versions of Black & Blue v5 without Cube, and then Artemis Touch 4.01 Vanilla without cube.
Will post results after a day of testing with each ROM.
@ gadjet
hey man ive used black & blue 5.0
has a terrible problem with memory leak sometimes it goes down to 12mb no option other than soft reset
currently i m satisfied with touch 4.0 full with cube ive disabled htc home n cube n no leak & it is much faster than official o2 wm6
In my humble oppinion the memory leak occurs from WM6 or WM6.1 itself.
The more I browse my "programs" and "settings" menu the less memory I have. It could be from the memory it uses to display the folders/icons/links. Even Oxis Hibernate can't free the memory from this.
The memory leak has nothing to do with HTC Home or Cube, or at least it's not the only cause. I cook my own ROMs and have memory leak too. I don't use Home or Cube. I use SPB products and still have a memory leak. As stated it's probably a problem of windows mobile itself.
There exist programs for freeing up memory for Windows XP too. Some programs stay in memory for a certain time to make the program start faster if you open it again. No idea if that's the case for WM too. This problem could be solved if every program you close sends a hibernate signal.
I noticed that if you open 5 programs in a row and close them one after another and hibernate after each you get more memory back than when you close all five in a row and hibernate after all of them are closed!
is there any other hibernating program than oxios

I've not HTC cube installed, the problem is in OS, what I've seen is a different memory use...
When I power-on my pda in the morning, my program's memory capacity is about 26MB, in the evening it is about 22-23MB...
But performances are not so different!!! I think this "problem" is created by the use of 3.13 drivers (biuld for WM6.0) in WM6.1, but this system has a different resources gestion (for example: is different also the battery status indication)
Still testing.
**Please note all my testing is on a XDA Orbit, therfore results may differ between devices etc**
Phew, flashed my O2 orbit about 30 times in the last 3 days, tried all the posted WM6 ROM's first, then went onto the WM6.1 ROM's. The only 2 ROM's which I found don't have a major memory leak are, 1-Artemis Vanilla 4.01 WWE ROM and 2-my original O2 ROM (RUU_Artemis_O2_UK_3.4.206.2_4.1.13.50_03.06.90_Sh ip), there is a neglabable leak of about 1Mb on these 2 ROM's, but is almost all recovered via the Hibernate program.
I am now concentrating all my testing on these 2 ROM's to see if the leak gets bigger when various programs like HTC Home installed etc.
Keep reporting back as this is a very important topic, I was amazed overall at the leak on most of the ROM posted here, which is a shame because of all the hard work gone into creating these excellant ROM's by the top developers, respect to all.
While testing all the ROM's I stumbled on a program that you can program the time of events like the time on and off for flight mode and soft reset's etc, its called CyberHorse AutoFlight v5.3.0 (http://cyberhorsen.go1.icpcn.com/autoflight.htm), so if you wanted to keep one of the top ROM's with a leak just program in a daily soft reset to recover the lost memory etc. Hopefully a solution will appear soon.
Be in touch soon if I don't kill my O2 Orbit with all this ROM flashing.
Still leaking

With HTC Cube Disable, memory leak continue. As mentionned by one of you here, appear to be a WM6 pb. With WM5 i had also this leak. I do not have experience with WM6.1.
Does somebody knows if Microsoft and/or HTC are aware about this problem? I cant find
a description about this case by them!
Thank to all of you reporting here this annoying pb, which does not remove the excellent
job done by all "Rom Makers".

p.s. one thing i really dont fancy about those manila guys is their not displaying the version details in the cab name, this way you find various .cab version posted everywhere and never know which one it is!
this 1 is much better thn all those throttle launcher themes
... just one thing i am missing:
how to change the buttons of the bottom row- order and showing buttons-- i just dont need all of them!

p.s.. the manila dialer is cooked into yue_v9.1 extraclean !!!!
thormdac edit the file HTCHomeSettings.xml search for tabs and disable what you wont!i gonna try to make a lite version... the last cab install around 330 files to windows directory!!! insane
I haven't tried that combined package yet, but everything installed from single packages works fine on Tom's oops.
Are you going to release this rom in a single package?

Works but not so impressed
Tested it on YuE's clean rom, it works but that's all.
Don't find it so spectacular cause I work with SPB Mobile Shell 2.0 with Diamondskin 2.1
This Manilla thing it's a combination of Spb Mobile Shell Diamond Theme & Throttlelauncher.
BUT it would be nice to implement in any new roms, don't like the HTC Diamond home plugin in the middle of the screen... And they cannot implement the Mobile Shell 2.0 with Diamond theme as homescreen cause it's not freeware...
Only the clock is not so nice on the startup screen, but this can maybe be changed.
just installed it on my artemis touch 4.02 lite no cube rom, it took about ten minutes to install, then when i restarted it about 7 minutes for the pda to load back up, and everything was so sluggish ! I then tried to uninstall it and that took about 15 mins then gave up and said it could'nt uninstall it properly.
Thanks god i have a sprite backup to restore.
It may have been my fault though, i selected install to storage card ? or maybe it just installs to windows anyway.
oh well...
you must install to the device, even though it lets you choose.
oh well i cant even restore, so i have to reflash again, what a pain
i tend to agree,
even on my rocket fast yue extraclean, i feel extremely slowed down (in comparison to without it) in trade for which gain?- optics? hope we can lighten this baby down

It works but.......very slowwww.
I unistalled it (correctly) but starting time after soft reset was too long: only solution a hard reset.
What about RAM consuption... What can you tell me about it?
I'm also uninstalling it, Spb Mobile Shell with Diamondskin 2.1 is much nicer to work with...
I haven't experienced any slow down of my P3300 with this either...
The Manilla 2D is still in beta, maybe some programmers can speed it up so that rom-builders can cook it in their roms.
HI,
I don't know why your manila 2d is slow , I only can suppose that must install a wm 6.1 diamond rom based , for example i get the anja and mossi on it , or must look for some rom similar
My manila 2d it is fast and works really well, anyway before installing it I uninstall all gui stuff like SPB shell
I installed manila on memory device and not on sd card
I have 14 MB ram free once manila is working , and is working well
i second to the past users' comments
i have tom's oops black 1.0 installed, and i've installed manilla on my device.
everyone should agree that touchFLO 3D aka manilla wasnt actually designed for artemis.. bt it was targeted for diamond which has higher ROM, higher RAM and a higher processors with a graphics device to assist its processes. it would be slow on any device with 128MB ROM and 64MB RAM and a 200MHz processor.
however, its not that slow.. i have 15MB free after Manilla is up and running after power-on.. i can use other applications fine.. bt surely the startup is slow.. takes a bit of patience heheh..
anyway its nice work from another xda developer.. i greatly appreciate ur work...
i've been using manilla on my artemis since it was launched for artemis.. im happy abt it..
hope that somebody can make it less bloating, more efficient, faster and more usable with better customizations..
xda developers rules!

From where can I download Touch flo Manilla 2D or 3D even for my artemis (arte110)?
