Hi
I'm using the HTC home plugin 5 tab and i experience many memory leak since i've installed the cab (on storage card). Memory usage was 35mb instead of 54mb after soft reset. Program usage seems to be ok. (im using the LSWV WM6 ROM) Do you guys have the same problem?
Does anybody have a good working .cab around?
I have been using the 5 tab plugin (although I removed the quickdial) with AX3L's ROM and I have not had any memory issues.
some times i feel that too..
maevro, how do u removed the quick dial. It would be interesting to find out how to customised HTC Home.
Thanks.

morning all,
two questions.
Firstly, roughly what are peoples memory status.
I've got a 1GB card that I install most stuff to and it's only 22% full, and my main memory is showing storage free 30MB (out of 54) and program free memory is at 19 (out of 48)
I'm curious as two what other people have.
secondly.
the programs I have installed are
Photocontacts Pro
SBP Pocket plus
SBP Backup
Resco Explorer
Resco Registry
WIFI Companion
and a whole bunch of games
The only thing I use on SBP pocketplus is the close program with X thing. I understand that wizbar has this feature too.
would anyone recommend one program over the other? wizbar or SBP pocket plus?
am I missing any other must have programs?
many thanks
Doesn't the ROM include a HTC program that closes items by X as well? I know it was included on my Herald.
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).

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.
what to do to increase the main memory?
closing programs rather then minimizing them
and maybe stopping auto started programs by removing
their shortcuts in \windows\startup
are your only options
unless there are more empty mem spaces on the pcb like on universal
Thank you for the answer, but what I wanted to know is the way off increase the memory physically.
Thanks

there isn't a way to increase the memory. If you change the ROM, you may end up with more free (depends on which ROM, each one uses a different amount of memory).
"Thank you for the answer, but what I wanted to know is the way off increase the memory physically.

yes thats what i ment by
"unless there are more empty mem spaces on the pcb like on universal"
very few htc devices which been able to upgrade mem
and those that have only if one was handy at solvering smd components
and making a custom rom which was able to see the new mem
which one had to stick with and not upgrade to newer rom versions
unless they too was custom made to see the new mem
at the end of the day it could be more trouble then it was worth
and be more pricy then the artemis was worth
For increase recording memory of HTC P3300 Artemis
Hello!!!
In my HTC P3300 I have this situation: recording memory total 32.45MB and Used 27.12MB (Free only 5,33MB); Program Memory total 47.90MB and Used 26.00MB (free 21,90MB).I don't understand because all the new programs are installed only in the recording memory and not in program memory.
I have the problem of recording memory.When i'm installing a new program, i can doing in external micro sd card?or in program memory?I think is not possible.
In My HTC P3300 working this program: Tom Tom 6.030 west europe map;Swissgeo map: Phone phad Dark; Opera 9.5 beta.When i use opera for internet my HTC show the message :recording memory full.I haved erase sms, MMS and E-mail message and i have only 5,33MB. (before installing of opera 9.5 i have'd 12MB free).
I want ask if is possible erase a part of program that not cause error (for example in TOM TOM i use the Italian language,is possible erase the france language or other).
Excuse me for my English not very well.
Thank you very much.
Hi there, I just browsing thru all the created threads,....about increasing the memory ....it will increased if we flash our rom thhru our SD card rite?....the base will be the capacity of the SD card....to run an application will be much more smoother....with high RAM....isnt it.?
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.
Eric
me too
Meschles 'old' ROM didn't have that problem... Will try to reflash and then do it even twice...have heard that this sometimes is helping

After disabling HTC Home was still leaking but slower.
Will try with HTC Cube disable, will see.
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".

Leak with v3b3?
Est-ce quelqu'un peut mentioner si v3b3 a encore ce défaut?
Does somebody knows if v3b3 still experience this pb?
Merci d'avance.
Hi guys,
my Artemis Touch Vanilla 4.02 behaves oddly:
When I have a program open and switch to the today screen and open another programm, then after a few seconds the first program quits without notice. Is happens with virtually every program, which makes it quite annoying.
It looks like the Artemis is running out of memory, but I use Oxios Memory quite often to ensure memory leakage is not a problem. I use Touch Vanilla 4.02 as said, with HTC Task Manager.
I've not had these problems earlier. A soft-reset does not solve the problem.
have you experienced similar problems?? thank you in advance!
cheers
i confirm this problem is there on TOM's oops black 1.0 (even on oops black beta)..
when multiple programs are run, some of the vanishes without any notice... its strange...
i wonder whats happening?
Hello
1.
The HTC TaskManager has an autokill function. There are parameters in the registry: HKCU\SOFTWARE\HTC\TaskManager.
I don´t remember the exact names one of them is EnableAutoKill 0/1
and another parameter sets the memory value. The default value was about 9MB. So if the memory is less than this value it closes running applications.
2. Opera 9.5:
I don't use HTC TaskManager, but had similar problems. After a reset everything works fine. After a while I mention that programs are killed.
I found out that after Opera 9.5 was startet once the problems begin. Closing Opera doen't stop the killing of programs while starting an other. Only a reset stopps the problem... until I start Opera again. I don`t have a solution for that (or not using opera 9.5).
regards
Andre

regarding the HTC task manager,.. i have disabled it... and about the 9MB parameter, i'll check it... i think its the problem there...
Disable HTC Taskmanager too, using the one built in in HomeScreen PlusPlus. Works good so far.
