ROM that Frees up the Most RAM? - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Would guys happen to know of any GSM roms that focus on giving the most RAM possible openly available to the user?

HTC One V with Android 5.0 JellyBean?

Will HTC One V get an upgrade to Android 5 JellyBean? ?? I have already bought this phone but some people say that I've done a mistake and I should have bought a phone with dual core so that I would be able to upgrade it to JellyBean? HAVE I DONE A MISTAKE?? My price range was just Rs.18,000.
The HTC One V has an unlocked bootloader and the kernel source is released. If Jelly Bean doesn't arrive through official means, I think you'll find it'll get it unofficially.
I do not see why a single core device would not be able to run Jelly Bean.
1gh is enough for JB. if JB will be improved in terms of speed and smoothness and using less resources then it will be just fine for One V. From GB to ICS it is a major jump because the whole system is cleaned and the clutter is removed (from within android internally) and you can see why. ICS is moving faster than GB on a device as old as Htc Hero (2009 released).
how about our one v RAM? Its always under 100mb in normal use. Will it be able to handle JB ?
Im worried RAM will be an obstacle for one v to get JB update
Jelly Bean hasn't even been announced yet. I don't think there are any answered to the question. Nobody even knows for sure what changes it will bring.
But internet says it will not!
I read on the net that JB will not support Single Core 1Ghz processors and even some Dual Core processors...!!!!

They said hat even for gingerbread which even 500mhz processors run beautifully!
So no need to worry and I can guarantee that we will get JB! if not hTC then I will try...I am still learning compiling from source!
Im just gonna wait for some generous devs to port it..

It's like that on stock rom running sense + icecream. What did you expected? from 512 mb ram, to have 500 free?!
After you've installed a custom rom without sense that eats a lot of ram, you will have enough ram for yourself.
One V will maybe won't get OFFICIAL JB update, but it will definitely be ported once it is released and sources are out.
And dudes, come on! You are waiting for port? IT IS NOT EVEN LAUNCHED YET! You have ICS, play with it. I am stuck on Chocolate - Eclair - GB roms from 2009. I had ICS on my current phone but some things are not working correctly because it is a port and it is not done. If I were you I will love every moment that ICS + sense has to offer.
I can't wait to buy the One V... 8 more days!
All you guys complaining about RAM (in this topic and the other one in Q&A) need to relax - that's just how Android works. Android will free up memory when it needs it. I'm not an expert but my understanding is that its memory management is drastically different to OSes like Windows and OS X.
This is the same reason why stuff like task killers are terrible. 512MB RAM is easily fine for ICS and will probably be fine for JB too (on an 800x480 screen anyway).

yeah but it's better to tweak the memory settings from within the boot.img itself because then you will not worry about if the script works/it needs resources to run the script and so on!

With 512MB RAM, you do not need Supercharger (I would dispute its usefulness at all).
Let Android handle memory the way it was designed.

Agreed. It makes you wonder what Google's software engineers supposedly overlooked that someone had to come behind and fix. What Supercharger does is not secret. If Google wanted to, they could buy it and put into the stock kernel but I don't see that happening.
On an experiential level, the only ROM with Supercharger kernel that I ever used was a great ROM, but it's performance was not noticeably better than a regular overclocked kernel. In fact, it had a greater tendency to hesitate and lag my Wildfire S.
Why do you guys complaining about Ram?? HD2 has 1ghz cpu with 512 mb Ram [up to 576mb] and it runs all custom Roms perfectly!

what da hell samsung? uour phone spec isn't low enough for ICS, your bull**** touchwiz blows everything down. crappy marketing strategies
Even Samsung Galaxy S Duos http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_duos_s7562-4883.php comes with ICS
Speechless as it is much weaker than our SGW, in term of CPU & GPU, the only thing it wins is the amount of RAM
There are a lot of ICS phones with 512MB RAM from HTC & Sony, if Samsung is willing to give us support, we would get ICS without problem for sure since Samsung got a big team to work it out, really quite a bad support from Samsung for our phone, luckily we got Arco and some developers who work hard to bring ICS to us really thankful to them!

yes this is right. support al the dev!!
I always look at the bright side of this.
If sammy release update ICS or JB, then we will loose the excitement of custom ROM.
What I mean is like the waiting time of new custom ROM version, the moment when devs release new update and we download it and flash it to our beloved SGW. It's so exciting!!!
Here, we have many custom ROMs and every new release is getting better and better. To be honest, I might prefer custom ROM. Because even if sammy release update, I'm sure it will full with sammy's bloatware.
One day, I met other SGW user. He is just a regular user and don't know anything about flashing. He looked at my phone and say: whoaa..!!! how did you do that?? Can you do it to my phone??
My point is: I DON'T CARE if sammy release update or not. As long as there are custom ROMs, that's more than enough for me
maybe we are not worried about this because there are custom rom. but I feel sorry for those who use stock rom and hope about rom upgrade.

Yes but surely ROMs like Cyanogen 9 would be much further along and have taken less time to develop and debug if an official Sammy ICS ROM for Galaxy W had been available as a starting point for modding/improving.

you're not completely right, for example if we had official ics we would not reverse engineer camera and some other hw, so creating 4.x customs would be easier, but we had just to rely on our devs and huawei u8860 software

Developers would be able to customized ICS if a stock ICS is already available than creating from scratch. ICS is different from GB. Thats why devs are having difficulties in fixing stuffs like camera for phones that do not have ICS. Devs would love to use working libs for ICS phone-related components. Then porting JB would be much faster too since little is different from ICS.

I realize that. But I also know that pissing off to sammy and curse them won't change anything.
What I mean is instead of pissing off to sammy, we should be grateful because we have devs that work very hard porting ICS for our phone.

I really wish this was true, and I wish Sammy would bring this update out NOW!
Not because I have one of these phones, but because that firmware could be the base for the developers working on our Wonder. That means it's gonna be easier to port, and we'll have a stable CM10 in no time! :highfive:

Not imo, sure it needs to be tweaked a little but no matter how fast GB is it's got an ugly U.I and I wouldn't dream of going back to it.
Just googled some stock gb benchmarks and average score was 4600/5000 on stock ics I've got about 5200 on CM10 JB 6200 and even more on "clean" just flashed ROM so stop talking bull**** and go play with yourself because nobody likes you in this thread.

Forget Benchmarks. Be Honest Mann
We need more free ram, like as 230 200
we dont need high benchmark.We need stable - fast - lighting - Power !
If you want free ram then remove bloatware, i had 250 MB on tweaked, de-bloated ICS.
And learn about Android/Linux ram management. Used ram doesn't mean wasted ram, if they stay in ram they will start faster.

Are you high? Because you sound so. Right now i have 180mb of free ram on cm10 super smooth ui and nice performance in games. I would never go back to gb because its ancient and I think it kills android as an platform. Why? Because majority of current android devices runs on gb so developers cant fully use power of newer API's and they must keep backwards compatibility which I think is always some additional work and unnecessary code.
I think exactly the same. Gb is better than ICS in all ways.
Appearance? Yes, we have great themers, we could make the interface we wanted, with no doubt.
That apps run better in ICS than in GB? That is not true. Due to RAM consumption and other aspects, apps work really better in android 2.3 than in 4.x+ (for our phone).
We moved to ICS because its build number is 4.0, not because anything is better. The true reality is that ICS is a less stable than GB...
There are new API features and some apps will never work in GB.
ics looks better than gb, and I don't play games to notice much difference in performance

Not in my opinion. With every gb battery would last at least 20h with moderate use. That doesnt happen in ICS
Enviado desde mi LT18i usando Tapatalk 2
In all honesty, I used to think exactly the same as you.
But, as stated earlier, ICS IS nearly as fast as GB now.
I used GB exclusively and occasionally used an ICS ROM just to see what they were like, I always went back.
But recently there has been some excellent work and I would never go back to GB now.
In the end its just personal preference, if you like GB - use a GB rom!!! There are plenty of good ones!

[Q] Best (aka fastest) Android version

Hi,
I only used Bada before and now wanted to try Anrdoid, but with all these different versions i ask myself what the fastest one is for the S8500?
I already tried this one, but the speed is unusable to me.
So are there any suggestions regarding the most useable Android version?
Their pretty much all unusable, that is for the 8500, speed drops like crazy due to low ram, in my opinion not a daily driver.
Request is pending for cm 7 :laugh: so lets hope some dev will pick this up.
