Welcome everybody, as this is my first post here.
When open the memory tool from settings I see free storage (40,24MB) and free program (45MB). The slide is in mid position.
When moving the slide right I can increase storage/decrease programs.
I did it and got e.g. free storage/program 61MB/24MB
But when trying to move 38MB file from SD to storage I got no space message.
What is then the REAL storage memory size ?
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.
I've only got Windows Live Search installed... I have 13,748... When should i start to worry?
You should worry when your phone moves too sluggishly.
I'm using official wm6 SPA HTC rom.
I just have Vodafone Real Mail (Visto Push email solution for WM) on startup and I've got 19MB free RAM.
If I recall correctly, without Real Mail I had 22-23MB free.
After some everyday use, memory resources go really low, and even using WM_HIBERNATE (oxios or celetask), I won't get those 19MB back...
I have about 19MB free after startup. You should begin to worry after you open PIE. That memory hog sometimes uses upwards of 10MB of memory.
Check your startup folder. Preinstalled programs and process will run even if you don't have any apps installed (onces installed yourself).
On a fresh restart I'm at a little over 13mb. If I use PIE or TCPMP then I'm down to 2-3mb in a hurry. I usually have to reboot at least once a day. Even if I kill everthing in Taskmanager and use SKTools to free memory I can't get back up past 8mb or so. Memory and battery life are the two things that I dislike about my Dash.
Installing the Office Update game me more RAM! Office seems to run faster as well. I usually have like 20MB on boot when I had like 16MB on boot before. Really nice up. Now we just need to cook some efficient ROMs!

Hi to all, a question, in older Windows Mobile you could decide how much memory allocate to files or programs, now it's exactly half for one and half for other. I mean, I've a Diamond and use Igo8, but 'vent enough memory to make it work well, cause in program memory, after killing all, I reach almost 40 Mb free. But I've 120 Mb free of main storage memory. Or there's a way to command Storage memory (Internal) to work as Ram memory? ope to be clear, thank-you
Allocating memory is a thing of the past (WM 5.0). Although this fun fact is a thing of the past, the good news is, History tends to repeat itself!
The odds are in our favour that we might see this option return .......
In light of recent discoveries about the HD2's hidden 128MB RAM, I've written a small application which uses the native Win32 API to allocate as much memory as it can (up to 2GB), and verifies it.
Notes:
This application is designed to test the limits of your device's memory. In particular, to test if the HD2's additional 128MB is actually usable or not.
This application will attempt to allocate as much memory as it can, OS limits notwithstanding. The application allocates memory in the OS's shared memory space, which means that it isn't privy to the usual 32MB address space limit.
Because the application isn't limited to 32MB memory usage, you don't need to run multiple instances to consume your memory. Just one instance will do.
This application does not use .NET, and instead uses the direct low-level kernel memory management functions (VirtualAlloc and VirtualFree) to reserve, commit, and free virtual pages. This means that the application has much more precise control over memory, and can consume memory until only a couple of megabytes remain.
This application verifies the memory it allocates, by writing a byte pattern to the memory, and reading it out again. This is necessary because the Windows CE kernel does not commit pages to physical memory unless the memory page is read/written from at least once. This also guarantees that the memory is, in fact, usable and valid.
The attached zip file includes an executable file and source code (C++, requires Windows Mobile 6 SDK).
hi! i've tryed it in my rom without the hidden ram enabled and the result is:
Success:could not commit pages
memory eaten:132MB
and after the programs close my free ram is 145, i guess last 10mb are not usable for some reaso? (WM6.6 memory management?)
regards

also when used with rom with hidden rams avaliable it closes before it the 1mb is filled
hm, got 180 on my rom
Memory eaten : 276 MB
after 290 MB free
Sorry. This is not working for me... It did not constantly allocate any ram on my device...
with a modified version of my "old" program, i was able to eat up 99% of ram... Still, I think in my first attempt i did proof the existance, cuz i definetly used more then 448 MB of RAM....
greez
Soft-resetted my HD2, run the app. and got 204 MB. So does this proove that I don't have any hidden RAM or not?
everyone has 572mb- stop bothering...
We don´t have the 1. of april, but carneval is still going on, so this may be the reason for this joke i think.
I'm interested if this will work for X1?
it is for HD2
but onyone tst this for X1?
sorry for my bad english
Is 25 minutes to long
I have the htc touch pro with mightyrom and i am running this now. it has been about 25 mins. is that to long or can i assume it does not work on my pro.
Do you think this would work on Rhodium too?
Thanks,
Im getting 272-276mb eaten fairly consistently after the os has been up for a few hours.
and 280-284mb after a soft reset on my HD2

It's odd, it should work on any WM6 (or higher) device.

the results window may get hidden Ive had that a few times.
use a taskmanager to bring it to the front
Work on Diamond 2 (Topaz) ?

i try out but i don't see any change in ram memory... stil 179mB..
Keep in mind that the application frees up all the memory it chews once it's done. So after the application exits, your amount of free RAM will not be changed. The application should report how much memory it managed to allocate once it's done, and if you open up the memory screen in settings (or whatever) you should see the amount of free memory drop as the program runs.
Sounds like some pretty heavy stuff. this is gonna be huge
I think, this program can be used for cleaning ram
thank.
