[Q] How much free memory do you have?

I´m just curious here, how much memory do you have free on your phone?
Mine are 148 MB free ROM and 281 MB free RAM.
Does this in anyway correlate to how fast games run?
Bring me some of your numbers! =)
the xperia play has a total of 380 MB ROM , its enough for lots of apps , and if its not , you can always move your apps to SD Card and free some space

That´s interesting. My numbers in the first post is on 4.0.2.A.0.42. I have removed apps that I deem unneccesary and want to make gaming run as speedy as possible.
I wonder if the new update will use more or less RAM than before, or if it even will be a difference?

How do you guys have plenty of memory? I'm unrooted but even if I was I don't see how I could bring about drastic changes.

If you´re rooted you can bring about drastic changes in the memory-area, turn off stuff running in the background eating RAM-memory etc.
I have used titanium backup and deleted a lot of system apps that I don´t use. I use my phone for: Telephoning, Messaging, Surfing, Gaming (emulator), and Google Maps. Nothing more.

All I can tell you do is root and remove system apps. That frees up a lot of space. Also put everything on the sd card.

Is that it ? how the hell are we supposed to run games like Shadowgun and GTA 3 on Ice Cream Sandwich with that much free RAM ?!

You must have a misunderstood concept of free RAM. Actually, the less free RAM you have, the faster your apps get. This free RAM is consumed by cached processes invisible to anything else that is not a system app. You can go to the Free RAM screen, press Menu and select Show Cached Processes to see your true free RAM. The more cached RAM there is, the faster it gets. I remember someone here at these forums actually posted the difference between "free" and free RAM, can't remember though. The Xperia Play can run BOTH of them at the same time, just like an iPhone 4S, especially if you are supercharged.

Also using Link2sd with a 2ext 1gb partition(575mb used/443mb free). Internal memory's at 201mb free. RAM is ~200(240 on boot, settles around 202).
-Stock R800x 2.3.3 rooted w/o vzw's bloatware. Ive got zeppelinrox's v6 Supercharger update9 r7 running with option 6 and bulletproof important apps. SetCPU stock speeds, just some profiles. Dalvik linked to sd as well.
I've gotta say it took some tweaking, but this phone is SNAPPY. All thanx to the devs here at xda. Lots of love fellas!

How to do with the lack of RAM?

Dunno for your, but for me it's hell. After boot's over, i have about 100mb of RAM avalaible and as it gets around 40mb, phone gets very laggy (like, call starts 2minutes after pressing call button...)
That happens quickly of course, since most apps use around 20mb (browser much more)... After that, only thing to do is reboot... And that take some time! And it can takesSo is there a way to "improve" that?
What I have started doing in my routine is when I am done using an app instead of just pressing the home button I press the back button until I am all the way out of the app. Also I don't use a task manager anymore since it seemed to hurt my phone more then help.

I'm on doomlord kernel v14 with zRAM activated and Xperia s rom and when I'm not listening to music the ram free is around 200mb if you can I recommend you to flash that Rom doesn't has lot of internal apps and when flashing the firmware it gets a lot of internal memory free
Other would be that you buy ram manager pro from market its a very helpful app when to ram managing is related

Ups that Rom is only for GSM buy try that app or v6 supercharger script both helps a lot
Sent from my R800i using XDA
I use v6 supercharger and titanium backup to move most of my apps to sdcard. I usually hover around 190-200mb free. And that is with all gameloft games, shadowgun, and about a total of 40+ games. I am also on stock Verizon rom with all bloat deleted via titanium. No lag anywhere. Everything is silky smooth.
Sent from my R800x using xda premium
Try doing a clean flash and delete all the stock crap apps, then try with Ram manager, on my play i feel that supercharger is not helping in games, niether on battery life, i will try using zram from doomkernel.

How do I enable the zram? I have the DooMKernel already installed.

i think about your problem with ram
(every method need root, some recovery too)
U can make swap file/partition if u have enough fast sdcard (i heard that min. is class 4, but more=better). Partition can be created using recovery i think (I never need this). Swap file can be created using a-swapper or Swapper for Root - I've newer used it too
Why the hell do so many people ***** about the lack of this and that? You had to known what you were getting into BEFORE you bought the damn thing! If not your just a retard and should sell your phone and buy something you'll be happy with or just deal with it

yes flashing custom kernel is a good option to aid in that aspect.

I switched from an OG droid so having 512 mb of ram is a dream in my opinion. Lol. I appreciate what I have and that is a sweet gaming phone that cost me $35 because I got the phone free and only had to pay the CA tax on the full unsubsidized price of the phone. I love my phone to death! Sure I could do with more ram but it works just fine for me as is ^_^

Advanced task killer

Hello Guys is it good to use Advanced task killer on stock rooted rom XXLMI? What are the advantages and disadvantages? Thanks
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium
I use it for killing unused apps freeing my RAM.
Especially the One Button Task Kill is a good thing that comes with it.
It doesn't kill your Launcher, but then if you're dependant on music using DSPManager its a good idea to exclude DSPManager in the list.
A very handy app and its my first choice task killer.
i did used that app for awhile but not quite satisfied with it since after i click the clear memory button the running program that hv been cleared will run again after sometime.so its hard for me when i played games(mayb i didnt know how to use it correctly.lol) a lil out of topic,if i may sugget mayb u can try autokiller memory optimizer apps since it also come with some tweaks, and it has a setting configuring how many hidden apps,empty app can be run.it also hv the same one clik memory reclaim.im still using it till now.
Thanks guys

how to have more RAM free space ?

how to control running background app to free more RAM on my Arc ?
i used task killer, but apps return to open again and used Autostart to limit the starting apps with system starting, but RAM is consumed by the apps running in the background.
lagging is the meaning of my ARC now.
it's very very annoying .. any help here ?!
Rom : Xperia Ultimate HD™ 2.0.3
kernel : LuPuSv9
the free RAM range always bet. 40 ~ 130
Seems normal for me. I had to disable apps i didn't really use that were using any ram =/
maybe try this script? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928200
Go to settings - programs - all
Tap the ones you dont need and disable
Task killers waste more energy and make your phone even more laggy because you keep clearing processes from the RAM. I could explain all that but it'd take some time which I dont have now -
So I'll just say that free RAM is wasted RAM. Task killers are stupid, something else is causing the lag.

your lag has no relation to this halfbrick folder as it is created when you install games like fruit ninja or jetpack joyride which are made by halfbrick studios
also clear ram time to time and don't run too much apps in background and do a wipe in recovery and see the magic
You can try GREENIFY , to hibernate all of your app so they can never drain your battery if you never use your app actively , also hibernated all app mean RAM FREE
