[Q] RAM - HTC Wildfire S

Is there a way to use the entire 512mb ram rather than just 410mb?
Devs have been able to do it for zte blade via a kernel mod...
Can anyone do it for wfs?

Not sure I'm near sure the rest of the ram is being used by the gpu for rendering the graphics etc but ill look into it.

I know for sure you can't do anything about it on the Desire Z. I would be about 99% sure it's the same for WFS - i.e. the rest is used by system stuff (e.g. the radio).
The RAM should be plenty anyway, don't worry about it.

You could use swap memory, it won't speed up your phone idk how much, but it might actually help in critical moments ...

That's a bloddy good question. Even if you loaded in the whole of cm7 AT ONCE you wouldn't get that much ram usage.. not if it was on its own anyway.

I don't think you need anymore RAM Memory. It's really no point of doing that.

I don't think it's possible, and if it is, why would you need it?

Because it would make games faster and allow heavier multitasking.

Good Idea!

RAM manager pro,try it out,it could help,u can enable the type of ram usage you need...hope it helps

[Q] I thought this is 512mb of RAM

but look at my attachment, my ram is only 275mb.. where are the other memory?
why is it like that?
Apparently I have 342mb. Maybe it doesn't all show up there?
Maybe some is reserved for android... the rest for applications, I don't know.
I think reading Von Neumann would do a lot of good about this.
yeah mine says 350MB
And what would the gpu do without any memory yes it shares that 512mb ram with gpu.
Hmm...This is interesting. I wonder where the rest is
lol I gave you the answer above The GPU has the rest of the ram.

No it dosent, we don't have dedicated graphics. Our GPU does not need dedicated Vram. The rest is reserved for android. The GPU can access the memory, but it's not reserved just for the GPU.

Is that true? Android is the one who is getting the other RAM? But that's so huge. Almost half of it.. Everytime I look at my running apps, it never went to 300+mb (combining used and free) that's why I always have a laggy apps and games (2.3.4) because of the few ram's left.. I thought if you have few ram left on your android, phone is running great, because Linux handles it different from Windows. But that's never happening in my case..

Thats right, with android the less free ram the better, the lag will be down to the CPU being overworked, try overclocking

GPU uses system memory for vram--128MB.
384+128=512MB

hey guys m a noob i have in this roooting process for like just a few months and have changed around dozen roms.i currently on cm7.2 latest verison and my fone crashes around 5-6 times a day.i am using cm7 performance tuning as cpu 729-729(performance) compcache 26% vm heap is 64.in order to speed up the device i have installed sd speed increase on 3072kb but no results.my fone has around 60apps of which 55 are on internal memory while 5 on sd card i used mtd partion and partions were as system 130mb,cache 20mb,and internal 315mb.my fone lags like anything i was using adw launcher the other time but it crashed every 5times
now i am using go launcher and it is atleast not crashing now but it is very using as if i m using 512mhz processor.the games are also very slow ninjump is very annoying on the device.i surfed the internet for qvga temple run but it force closed and so with other games like nfs shift(not responding) and gangstar west cost (unresponsive)
did i rooted it wrong should i root over again?
also i flashed ruu and then also flashed cm7 but still its laging.
using the stock kernel of cm7
please help ASAP
Dissemble your phone ,cut your processor into 4 pieces and you will have a quad core.It will then become super fast like a leopard.

This is nothing to do with rooting. You should know that wildfire doesnt have a gpu in it so the games dont run as they are suppose to be running. So overclocking doesnt do any significant good to its performance.
I see that you are running it at 729/729 which according to me is too much because the device heats up quite a lot with these settings and also leading to craches. Try atleast lowering the lower value. I personally use 691/352 with smarassv2 and it doesnt give me much lags with the scripts I use. Mind you I use adw launcher with all the animations enabled.

i know wildfire doesnt comes with a gpu but ninjump should work flawless with overclocked processore my fone doesnt gets heated even on 729 if i use if for more than 6hours in straight and by temple run and gangsta i meant those games were mend to be compatible for a arm v6 processor still they arnt working even if i try everything with chainfire 3d
Yes they are compatible with armv6 processor thats why you are able to run them. But mind you games need graphic processing. Slow processor without gpu (graphic processing unit) can not do all the processing by itself.
Still there are many scripts available here on xda which can improve the performance of our device. You can try those and see if they help you.
:banghead: and then with some rolleyes.
using my thanks as likes
Just because you can't feel the heat doesn't mean it's not there before the phone gives in, every cpu has a different tolerance level.
Drop your cpu speed and it should stop the rebooting, I've heard of people that can't go above 691 before too.
As for the games its been said before many times, no gpu=no good graphical games, this cpu can't handle it. If you want a good phone that can don't buy bottom of range phones that have been out for years.

I have searched a lot but only wat I could do was to increase performance a little and that too unstable if you can be so kind to give me links of the scripts you are talking about I would be thanful to you.also you said games are compatible for arm v6 but temple run v6 verison doesn't opens in my fone it just force closes everytime I try to open it while I have seen many galaxy y users run temple run.I am not complaining about the performance(no gpu) but atleast they run do you have a solution?

if you dont want to help its ok but dont unnessarily demotivate people who want to make something of their phone or who want to learn something.if wildfire is an outdated fone i am amazed why there was an unofficial cm9 port for it or an muni v4 port.for some people the fones do matter :/

First of all read my post correctly, I gave you advice on how to stop the random reboots? How is that not being helpful?
Secondly it doesn't matter if they are compatible with armv6 they use a more advanced graphics engine which will just not work for us. I'm also guessing that a galaxy y has a gpu?? (correct me if I'm wrong).
As for your your other comment, the sun is shining today and I'm in a good mood so I won't bite!

First of all drop ur processor frequency because it is not supercomputer.use scratch post value,they r best for wildfire...
For games its just like running mass effect 3 on Pentium 3 with no nvidia or amd....
Thirdly don't be rude to other members because u r noob and scratch is a senior member and bro scratch helped me alot while I was rooting....
What u had done to your phone,I can only pray for it,even HTC will also not accept it,they will donate to nokia....

Why no fully functional ICS and Sense 4 when there is one for HTC Desire C

HI Guyz,
I am not a dev. So please pardon me if i am wrong. When i visited a mobile shop to get a new mobile for my cousin,
1. I saw HTC Explorer , which in configuration is wayyyyyyy below desire. But i was awestruck with the smoothness of it. The appdrawer, swiping between homescreens, widgets etc. but i cannot have the same smoothness even with the official sense 1.9 ? Why is that ?
2. I saw HTC Desire C which is based on 600 MHz Cortex-A5. WTF. ? It has ICS. I can sense that ICS will be very laggy in the handset but my question is how this weak chipset has fully functional ICS and Sense 4.0 ? I still feel HTC Desire is very powerful and capable enough to run ICS. !!
Thanks,
Karthik
I'm running nikez ICS and it is very smooth - does not have sense though.

You could try to download desire c rom, change all "desire c" string to "desire" and see if it works...
lol, it's not so simple to port a rom, it's a different architecture of chip, different screen resolution, different drivers... etc etc...
Like if you run a game on a quadcore with full resolution and the same on a pentium4 with 640x480.. do you understand a little?
I think that the progress in ICS and JB is fantastitc, so appreciate the dev's work and don't pretend too much.

Thanks for your reply and please dont be obnoxious when you reply to someone. Its not that I doubt the devs. What i am trying to say is when a 600 mhz powered device can run ICS, why not ours (out of the box. just with minor tweaks) like transition from Froyo to GB. ?? I was totally upset to see ICS in Desire C rather than mine. I hope we will have fully functional ics/jb not without our excellent devs. !!

Ok, the fact is also that desire c has htc's drivers, our desire hwa was written from scratch by evervolv team, so it isn't an official released properly functioning.
It's correlated with the problem that cyanogenmod don't support it for cm9.
There are a few different ICS roms that work really well and smoothly for the Desire. BCM is based on CM9 but nikez rom and sandvolds rom are not. The only problem I have encountered is video playback issues which can be solved my using mx or rockplayer. Otherwise imo the desire ICS roms are quicker than GB. The devs have done a great job porting these to desire.

Wait... I believe that who tried mildwild 4.3 can say that is quicker, faster (maybe not smoother) rom for desire. With the option of choosing where to put apk and data of each app (if in internal or ext) I can open frequently used app in a second, camera Miui app is perfect and it has no bugs. The only benefits that I saw in ICS was running heavy games with good frame rate (the same game is laggy in GB) and using 4.0+ apps. But so far I found ics and jb rom slower (repeat I mean opening apps and overall quickness). Btw the job by evervolv team and nikez is fantastic and I guess that JB development will go furrher and better than ics

Since Shaky stop developing his Sense 4.0 ROM, this side of the HTC desire development has stopped. The ROM, though in alpha, was working brilliantly well. Everything was smooth, and there were many thing working. Why did shaky stop? That build has so much potential. I really hope that he is still developing his rom in secret, so that he makes a "surprise stable full version" release.

I didn't even notice that Shaky deleted his XDA account. I'm a bit worried about him. What happened?
So, if shaky stopped developing, does that mean that the Desire will never get a full version of the 4.0 Sense, even if it can run it very smoothly?
Begging the devs won't help...
I want this port so much that I'm willing to take Linux classes and to port it myself.
Sooo, is any developer kind and willing enough to continue shaky's work? I know this sounds like begging, but many Desire users really want the 4.0 Sense.
To prevent noobish spamming, like shaky had, devs could just release a full version when it's done.
Please XDA Devs, make our dreams come true.

the overclocking is based on kernals... bt 1ghz is not possible with our phone... even the max 824mhz is not recommended cuz you may get freezing and random restart problems...

If you wanna melt your phone, go ahead.
The overclocking depends on custom kernels. If our phone came with a 800MHz processor out of the box, then maybe we could go to 1GHz. But not with this.

You can change your kernel so that you can overclock your cpu...
And you should also use KSM(kernel samepage merging)...
