This is my first post and my english is very poor.
Ok, as i can see the maximun amount of free ram that we can get to our plays is arround 250 mb, but my galaxy tab have the same ram (512mb) and i can get more than 300 mb with bloatwere. So anyone knows why?

MB and MB is totally different thing.
MB's on storage
And MB's of RAM left
Just fyi.

Their systems are different. Some system takes up more RAM but some don't. I assume your tab can't make calls and sms, so there will be more RAM available than phone.

I think Xperia Play have less than 512MB of RAM. I have seen other Xperia 2011 models with 512MB (Arc S and Neo) and they have more RAM looking at the app manager.
Obtain 250MB of free memory is an epic win in this phone even with the lightest GB rom.

My partner has an Arc S and the ram on her phone is alot worse than my play, I get around 234mb free ram and her arc S gets around 183mb free and both are on Gb stock

I mean, if you sum the used RAM and the free RAM... Xperia Play has less total RAM than an Arc S. Or at least that's what I remember.

And it's possible to "block" some of this features ( via kernel or whatever ) to have more aviable RAM?

Swap

Hello and first i have to say, great forum!
Now to my question. Is it possible to create a swap file or partition (like swapper, or???) for my/our galaxy? Then we didn't have the low ram problem !?!
(like my old htc magic )

there is no low ram problem in actual kernels...
Yes, you mean the kernels with 340mb ram. But i mean ram like galaxy tab ob more. ;-)

Swap does no good for this device, as soon as it starts to swap it gets inresponsive because the sdcard is way to slow except maybe you have a class 16 card which for me is out of reach in terms of price...
Do Galaxy Tab appz use much more RAM? Because with a lot of widgets and synch apps I've never ever filled the 304 (now 340) megabytes of RAM to justify the swap...

[Q] how much ram do you have on your arc ???

Mine shows used 198 mb, free 106 mb... Totalling for 304 mb... Am I not supposed to have 512 mb ram ??
Is this defect with my arc or the whole Indian version of arc...
What are you guys getting... Please post so that I can go for replacement...
I would like ti tell you that though my stats show only 300 mb of ram, my arc is in no way slow... I run spb shell 3d and its very smooth...
Seriously need advice...

The Arc has 512MB for RAM, and 320MB for storage.
I believe some of the RAM is reserved for the operating system, and doesnt show up in memory reports. A bit silly IMO.
Similarly, i think the phone actually has 1GB of internal storage, but 320MB is what's left to the user after OS installation.

well, the official site says it has :
Internal phone storage: 1GB (up to 320MB free)
RAM: 512MB
so, my guess is, the android system use up most of the internal storage (~650mb) so we only have ~320mb free.
and the we only get ~350mb ram couse ~150mb is shared with the graphic.

Kernel etc needs RAM to, because of that we have only 343MB RAM for the users. Other phones have 400 or more MB available and they have also 512MB RAM.
I wish we'd have 400MB, too.
My Arc runs for 150 hours now and RAM is down to 40MB free RAM. Which causes launcher redraws when I open big apps

yeah, i wish we'd have 400mb too, is that posible ?
your arc runs 150 hours ?!
how is that possible ?
mine usually last 1 day (heavy use) or 2 days (normal use)..
I think it should be possible with a custom kernel to enable more RAM that's available to the user.
I mean uptime, not battery life

I personally haven't played either of the games you mentioned on Cola rom.
I've Mainly been playing emulators and they run just fine.
And no to the data partition, I looked into it but could never figure it out so I said F--- it.
No tweaks have been done in that picture, flash cola rom and you should have similar stats.

Xperia S and SL both has 1GB RAM.
200 MB reserved for the GPU, around 150+/- reserved for OS it self and rest you get as for the app use and as free memory. There goes your 1GB RAM. Got it?

[Q] - free RAM of Xperia C ~500 ?

My friend has just bought Xperia C. Amazingly, free ram is about 500mb meanwhile Ion is 350 only. XC with fw 4.2.2 and kernel 3.4.5. Why?
Depends on how you have everything setup and how much total ram the device has
Im quite sure ion haa 600mb of ram where as the CC has some 1.3 gb i think, or maybe it was the ZU
I often sit on 500/685 when on 4.3 AOSP
And 340/685 on stock
