This question might have been asked to death ., but still i would like to get a real answer. my phone shows that the system ROM has 367 mb and 110 free .and my internal 446 mb and 75 mb is free
if i find a ROm lets say 150 mb would that increase my internal MB .or the sys ROm is dedicated lets say 450MB.,and that is it.so if i use a ROM 150 MB or 400MB the Internal will not be effected ??
anyway so what if I install a basic ROM with nothing much there ,.no apps ...etc and i install the apps i want what ROm with that be that runs and stable ,one that built using Android 2.3.3. since these i can tether ...from my phone .
sincerely

The smaller the rom size, the more initial internal storage you will have. A 350MB rom would have less space than a sticks and stones 90MB rom.
If you flashed a basic rom like you described, and started to install apps, you would see your internal memory get smaller with each app. However, most roms have a2sd baked in. Once you partition your sd card and upgrade your ext to the rom specifications, the apps will be placed on the space on your sd card, not the phone.
thank you for the answer.

Any Roms that combat the reknowned small internal storage like that let you install apps direct to sd card without any data on the internal memory
You surely don't need THAT much storage unless you're downloading the entire android market. I'm sure oxygen would suffice, if you use the SPL (hboot) that comes with it that is, you'll have 332mb of internal storage.
I use the Data++ table and GingerWally 1.5. I get 210 MB free for apps and the stock GB ROM from HTC (stable, no Data2SD etc.) + various small enhancements. Right now i have some 50 apps installed (12 of which are games like NFS - Shift) and i still have 92 MB left on the Data partition. Oxygen with its 332 MB free should be more than enough for any well-organized user.
Answer to your question is yes, Roms with data2sd, data2whatever, and data2ext all use various scripts to install apps on ext partition of sdcard, leaving nand for other tasks.
Swyped on my Htc Desire running on Supernova Extreme - Gingerbread goodness with 2 GB of Internal memory
I can only barely have 4 games installed n thts with to sd so ye n tried oxygen it very nearly ruined my phone. Does cyanogen have something like wat u said? Htc sense would be good to

Oxygen is a really good rom - it should be rock solid.
Pretty much every Rom here has some sort of system to create extra space - either by transferring portions of the app to the sd card, or by shrinking the size of the Rom so creating more space on internal. For the second method, you need to change the hboot to take advantage of the smaller Rom.
Have a look at the threads, there are a few discussing 'what Rom are you using' and also the index on the development section.

try alex-v gingerbread rom.
it looks like the original..but has a optimized-for-speed data to ext
I run the runny AIO 5.0.3 nu sebastiaan15. If you are s -off and have a 1gb ext4 partition on your sd choose the AD2SDX. I have around 700 MB left for my apps

That error shows that your kernel doesnt support swap. Could you provide more information as which rom and kernel you are using?
And i also dont recommend you to create swap file using this apps because someone had bricked their wonder using similar apps. Here is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2095573
Here is another method to create swap file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145133 AFAIK this is the best and safest for creating swap file

OK brother. Firstly, I recommended khan kernel to you because of its extra 20 mb ram feature. I thought it may help you, and also it is good and smooth kernel. It has extra processors and i/o schedulers, and some specifications. :good:
Furthermore, you can use turbo boost http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145133 to increase ram. I recommend three swap way (cache/system/data)
Moreover, 64 mb swap file you mentioned is zram of the kernel, I think. In addition, you can disable it(64 mb) by using Performance Control app, here is the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2401988
If I'm wrong, someone please let us know the correct information.
thank you!

That is normal bro The 64mb swap file is zram. It is ON by default in cm11. I think there is an option for it under performance in settings. But i suggest you to left it untouched as zram is compressed ram and wipp help in ram management
uhh thx guys, i were see my ram were boost when using turbo boost thx:good:
Hi Friends,
The MIUI stock rom was showing 6.12 GB of ROM totalspace out of 8 GB and 1 GB RAM. I flashed with custom rom, now it is showing only 5.7GB of ROM and 820MB of RAM. Is this the real spec of the device or some of the spaces got wasted while flashing? or is it not utilizing the RAM and ROM completely I tried with both CM11 and Mokee, both showing the same.
Please suggest...

Miui uses some sh*t memory calcuting tech. I have a 64 gb sd card inserted, the actual user available space is 62.5gb, but my phone shows freaking 66.98gb!! How can a 64gb memory card have 67gb in it!?!?
Trust me, the internal storage of our phones can hold 5.72 gb, and not more than that. And the total usable ram is 871mb, not 820mb. 153mb goes to the gpu.
Check the screenshot.
Not in miui bro even all brand in 16 GB you will get 12 GB for use 2 GB for application and rest for system.

Hi,
i am a newbie at rom stuffs.
İ downloaded and installed the CyanogenMod 10.2 - Alpha 9 - 20140916 on my poor wonder. İ checked the ram status and i see that underusing ram is at least 223 MB and i have no apps and even have no phone numbers. i read on xda that it must be at 150-160 MB. Can anyone tell me What my problem is and what the solution is ? because the Wonder has already very little ram and if i install apps like whatsup,facebook etc. i can't use my phone because of freezing. İ have checked once before when i have the CyanogenMod 10.2 - Alpha 9 - 20140916 and the facebook,whatsup,soundhound,clean master and 1-2 another apps installed, and my free ram amount was 5-12 MB. So i couldnt use my phone.
Please help me, because i am getting very mad about that situation.
Thanks to all...

Facebook requires a lot of memory and this phone is only 512mb. Most of the memory is reserved to system. It all depends of the applications that come with the rom. You can always delete some applications that you don't want. Still, don't expect miracles. Also you can try some custom kernels that have 416mb of ram. It can help a bit
Previos time I used Redmi Note 4 (Mido). That phone are 3gb varient. That phone in i flashed epicMiui custom rom. That rom are used my ram storage only few 1gb/1.3gb Ram. That rom are my best choose for that issue. All time ram storage 1.4gb are always free. That phone camera are just osame
But,
Now I am used Redmi note 5. There I tested many custom rom. All the custom ROM are most ram storage drained. Like there are free ram storage are only 700mb to 900mb.
So,
I need A miui based rom.
That are i am used daily draivers. That are mostly free my ram 1.4 to 1.5gb. Sugeested me please...
Nb: sorry my bad english.
You don't need that. Empty ram is wasted ram. Stop obsessing with numbers and learn how things works.

Congratulations, you used your phone with 1.5gb ram lol. Why do you even have this crazy idea that somehow unused ram is good for you? Its not, unused ram=useless ram in linux/android.
