App processing limit - HTC Excalibur

Ok i have a Tmobile Dash on on the US tmobile market
albeit i have the 6.1 modded update my question is, is there a limit on how many apps you can have open?
ill have beejiveIM, pocketwit, and email open, but if i open the IE browser or any other browser i have installed (skyfire,iris,opera mini) it will shut down 1 of my running apps.
Ive tried clicking the exclude option with celetask but it still will close a app.
Would this be becuz the dash has a app running limit or are these just timeouts originating from the apps im using?
Im thinkin it might be a dash issue and i want to upgrade to a dash 3g but i dont want to if i find out that the same issue occurs on that model.

You have a certain amount of RAM memory available and if you run heavy memory users, of course the cell will either close some or freeze.

seriously low memory issues after upgrading to WM6

while on WM5 my free memory never really went below 10 M , even with several programs running.
loaded the new generic WM6 to my generic s620 and while it's nice looking, i'm having serious RAM problems. after a clean boot, free memory is around 18 M.
BUT, having a couple apps open like calendar, messaging, msn, it suddenly drops to only 2 MB available! right now, as I'm typing this it has 1,100K free ram and i have skype and IE open, everything else is closed. yes, ie cache is clean.
i did install voice command and at first suspected it for this sh*t but after disabling (removed from startup).
any ideas?
thx
Greg
Try uninstalling Skype and VoiceCommand for a few days, see how it runs then.
IE will also eat ram and not give it back until it is killed. I always remember to use celetask to close it after i'm done using it.

Talking about kill process, what's the best task manager available for smartphone?
I don't know celetask but I'll give this a try.
The question is - does your device run slowly or not allow you to run applications? Or are you just worried about a small number?
I see the same thing on mine, but it nevers runs slow and I have never hit a 'no memory' problem.
I have calendar, inbox, tasks, contacts, phone history, IE, Communicator, MSN and File Explorer open.
I agree with the above post, IE is a hog and you need to kill it from time to time.
My s620 has been running the HTC official WM6 ROM since the day it was posted and I have rebooted once since then, and that was only because I shut it down for a long flight
Maybe I'm just not a 'power user'?
It's not slow but it kicks out some apps from time to time as there is not enough memory.
For example, when browsing with IE, Skype closes sometimes. That pisses me off.

That's normal behavior when system closes some apps for wiping memory, you should try to avoid big memory "eaters" and close some of them..
For me i always try to keep 3-4 apps opened and got no problems..

yep, I know this. My problem is that WM5 vs. WM6 --> 10 MB is missing "somewhere"....
I only have Messages and Skype running, everything else is closed. But when I launch IE and it kills Skype I get pissed!
I upgraded mine to wm6 and i have no idea whats wrong, it runs beyond slow! nothin running, and lag like no other! it gets so bad sometimes that i have to restart my phone, and to restart my phone i have to pull my micro sd because i guess it doesnt like 1gig sticks! how and what do i do to fix this! also i would re rom it but i just to want to have to go through the hassle of getting BBConnect working again!
Hmmm... doesn't make sense, as mine actually runs >a lot< faster. Is yours under warranty? Sounds like yours is defective, you should talk to your carrier about a replacement device

I am not using Skype, but gonna think Skype is very "hungry" for memory, for ex for me: when no apps started i have 15mb free, after IE and other 3-4 apps it's 5-6mb free and still no problems..

lag

Hi
I have my dash on 6.1
and after a while it starts to get laggy or really slow
any ideas what to do?
Off and On again
You can either restart as the phone tends to build up in the amount of programs being opened, or you can always click the tzones button and it will direct you to the task manager where u can close programs to make the phone less laggy...
Install (and then purchase) Celetask. Best darn task manager around and with its 'free memory' tool I can keep my dash at 18MB free program memory all day
You should also get SKTools, clean out the Notification Que once in a while.. that slows down the Dash as well.

Celetask does not need to be purchased as it comes with the new 6.1 rom remade by Ricky... version 24...
i have celetask and free memory but still not running that smooth
there have been times where the phone just locks up and ihave to pull the battery out.
any other ideas why?
running winmo6.1
can be due to the fact that my phone is actively sync to exchange server??

maybe cause it's actively synced to your gayness level, and it overloads the phone
jk, from my experience, whenever i install cabs, my phone ends up slowing down alot faster than a reflash without any cabs. maybe you could reflash and only install the cabs you need?
if not, then try restarting the phone often, cause its like those old computers we used to use back in the day where a restart was almost necessary every day
also, clearing the mass amounts of text messages (and deleting them from the trash) makes my dash faster

Agree just try restarting it once a day as well as clearing up the texts... Also run SKTools in order to clean up and free some bytes... You can find the link to download SKTools below in the programs for smartphone... Just download the lite version okay if you would like... I also have the other version but read the readme file for that version...

new bee with a ? on the camra

so i got the tilt 2 (at&t) and some times when i go to use the camra i get an error says that there is to many programs running and asks if i want to shut some of them down . if i say yes it takes me to the task manager but there is nothing running so the camra will not work till i shut it off and resatart it . any ideas ? also on the opra browser is there any way to have more then two tabs open thanx for your help
Sounds like your ram is too high for the camera to work. Install the two attachments. From what I read about them, the phone sets aside a certain amount of ram for I think pictures. The dynamic proxy cab, fixes this problem by adjusting that amount to only what is needed at the time.
The no push internet cab will disable the pushed (is that the correct term?) bookmarks on your internet tab.
As for more tabs in Opera, do a search. I have seen a thread floating around here somewhere telling you how to add more tabs. I think it is in the registry settings.
I take no credit for the attached cabs. The website I got them from seems to no longer exist, so I can't exactly link you to them.
thank you for your help i will try that

You could also try using cleanram. Free app, and you can set it up to do it automatically at set intervals.

Very annoying problem: out of memory at line xx

since i got my TP2 on 5/17 ive been seeing this message while browsing the web in either internet explorer or opera 9.7 (except worded differently). i have gotten this error on all roms i have flashed whether 6.1 or 6.5. its very annoying because once this message shows up in either browser websites stop functioning properly and i dont know why it even says it because my ram usage is in the 60s or low 70s when it does show up. i am now officially fed up with this error and want to know of a way to get rid of it, i can hardly get anything done on the web because of it and it will happen despite whatever else i have in the background (nothing). any ideas?
Could you be out of storage memory not ram memory?
Maybe after you browse for awhile your cache, cookies, and history eat up too much of your storage memory and give you the error. Try lowering your cache settings in Opera or freeing up some storage memory.
i have about 50mb of storage free so i doubt it would all run out after being on FB or any other site for a couple mins, but ill try the cache thing tho i dont think thats it
an old thread but my latest problem...
Any clues please guys?
Soft reset (the pin next to the SD slot under batt cover) didn't fix it?
Never heard of this, but I honestly never really ran WinMo much on my RHOD .
There is a memory limit for one process (32MB, unsure). So if you force Opera to load an oversized website such a error could occur.
Although I never had such a problem so this is only my theoretically guess.

[Q] GPRS data consumption

Hello Guys,
I have an HTC Desire, and I am located in Lebanon, we don't have 3G networks yet and a 50MB data plan cost us $10/month. for a Desire, the 50MB on GPRS can be consumed in 6hours even if I keep killing running services using a "Task Manager Killer" application, to give an Idea, I have a nokia E72, I keep GPRS running continuously, I use Whatsapp all the time and I consume less than 10MB/month, while on the Desire if I use Whatsapp and I keep killing apps all the time I am online I consume 10MB in 3hrs.
is there a way to disable all the services from starting unless I request it to? like making the Android behave like a Symbian regarding online updates and running services.
Regards
NAB
Either you are use whatsapp really a lot or killing the apps is doing more harm then good. Have you ever tried installing a app to monitor data usage and see were the data goes? I would suggest 'Network TrafficStats Lite'.
can I move from Froyo to Win Mobile 7?? on my Desire
Hello,
I have just been told that I can reflash windows Mobile 7 to my Desire, and that would consume less Data than Android, a friend who had an Imate did the testing with windows mobile 6.5 and then Android 1.5 (I guess) and android consumed more data when it was connected online. so what do you guys think?
a stock mobile 7 (i didnt know anyone had ported it to desire.....) would use less data as there arent many things on it that use data, syncing, weather, emails etc.
but then you have defeated the purpose of having a desire in the forst place! believe me, windows 6.5 was awful, if 7 is a bit better it still wont be as good as android yet.
plus if it is possible to put windows 7 on android it will be very buggy and only for testing at the moment......so probably wont be very useable. this would prevent data use of course
