Hi every one. how could i turn the ram to original space. means 512mb?
My phone is rooted.

I'm not sure,but its impossible to get 512mb ram...most I can get is 220mb free ram =\

You can't get more RAM than 330MB or so, the rest is for the radio and possibly other system stuff. Why is it a problem though ? Typically (running 2.3 at least) there should be lots of free RAM.

I saw 512+ before as total ram

That's very interesting because I saw 512MB too but now I have 368MB. Don't remeber when was it probably before rooting and flashing. Is this correct that task manager reports only 368MB as total memory?
Now I have Virtuous Affinity 2.05 and HBOOT from virtuous page. Is this could be the reason?

I always get around 250mb ram rarely 310mb :O

If its the value in About Phone - Hardware Info, i think that can be set to show anything you want in the build.prop file. The most accurate method to check RAM value and free RAM is using "free" in Terminal Emulator.
As discussed, the 512MB is shared between the phone, radio and graphics

"Where's my RAM?!"

SetCPU and "RAM Usage" only show 408MB of total memory (I'm using ShadowFrost kernel).
Where is the rest? Is it just reserved for the system and the gpu and it's not visible to the user?
Yes that is correct, the remainder of the RAM is reserved/used by the Android system and i would imagine that some of that is also utilised by the GPU.
Your total ram usage should only show 400 Mb, but because of the modified kernel hack, you get the extra 8 Mb

[Q] Low On space...argh!

OK, all the threads I've found about this are quite old.
I've been pretty good at managing the storage on my Desire, but now I have this warning permanently on and I can't bin any more apps.
When I list them, all the big ones are on SD, so what is munching my space?
I have my mail set to only carry the last 30 days. At this rate I'll be getting my XDA Serra out of the attic...
Browser cache or contracts if you have a lot of them. If not probably data associated with your apps.

And cache cleaner.
Better still, why not root the phone and install a custom rom as suggested. You can then run everything from a larger internal memory space, meaning a faster phone and no low memory warnings!
Root!
Data2Ext, A2SD+, CM7 H-Boot table, etc.
There are plenty solution for low on memory problem, and they are the main reason why I rooted my phone.
I just tried Data 2 Ext and partitioned my SD card as was told by the RCMixHD ROM thread, but after installing that ROM I get a Low On Space warning! Getting really annoyed with the badly tested roms out there. I mean really, so much for using the data2ext script when it doesn't even work!
I'm back to Redux. Only ROM that's actually STABLE. Too bad not having a HTC Sense keyboard on that rom.

[Q] Ram optimizer DZ

Hye guys,
Got a question is there any way possible to free up some system allocated ram for using intens apps (or for running ubuntu). I know it was possible on certain devices but havent really seen anything for a sense rom.
I'm currently running the mytouch rom. It's very fast for a sense rom. Unbelieveble fast even. Its just you can notice that sense requires so much more ram than say CM7 without sense.
I want to keep all the sense features, but just free up some ram.
Any ideas are welcome.
Cheers
Use a ram cleaner script. It deletes lots of system data to free up more ram on ur phone. Heres the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16244178&postcount=2184

Mik3d Beta 1 has about 140 mb of ram. After partitioning storage, I have about 350mb of storage available. It is exceedingly fast and exceptionally strong on battery.
Also, I'm using Lithid's more freedom kernel.

+1 on this.
Underclocked to around 700 MHz with no lag. Not even using V6 Supercharger or any tweaks either.
Partitioned SD card helps with anything, I have a 16 gig card with a 3 gig ext3 partition.

[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?

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.

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!
