Why my Desire HD has available only 623 mb of RAM??? My friend's inspire 4g sees all amount of 768 mb with the same rom.. how can i fix it??
What ROM are you using? I only get 592MB of RAM in my Inspire D;

The theoretical max. amount of ram for both phones is 768MB ram, the actual amount depends on how much is being allocated for the system, the amount you saw was probably a false build.prop edit.

Open HTC Taskmanager (on your friend's phone) and see what it shows.

Can we repartition our memory on our g2 therefore extending our ram for sense 3.0 i do kno it is possible on a computer

srsly?
Well a simple answer is no. Computers are much diffrent to Smart phones. Well that would be cool if we could increase the ram

Storage partitioning and RAM are entirely UNRELATED.
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
hey guys.
today I installed resurrection remix v3.0.5 on my friends s2. in the aroma installer I selected to install the stock CM10 kernel.
then in about phone, hardware info there was listed 825MB RAM!!!!!
and we also have 1GB ram, and here with us we have only 678MB RAM available...
so both phones have 1GB ram, and yes I know a part is OS reserved, but why needs the GN OS more ram than the S2 OS?
Free ram is wasted ram.
My wife also have s2 and same rom as you say(....remix) but not fast as my GNex on stock firmware.

I find it's best not to worry about RAM in android devices. Unless you're actually seeing decreased performance.
It just so happens that our chip set had one of the fastest RAM speeds when it released.

It matters about how much RAM we have total

The ram missing is used by the GPU. 698 is whats available to cpu
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
This doesn't answer your question and will probably add more confusion as to why we're missing so much RAM but I think Android Jelly Bean uses more system RAM.
Fast forward to 1:47. You'll notice that CM9 leaves us with 829MB or memory and CM10 gives us 693MB. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIQO_kRFLwQ&feature=related
no more care about the ram.use the GN fast and comfortable is the best.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Do your own build with tweaked settings to have "more ram". We could even set it to say you have 900 exobytes of ram if that'll make you feel better? To be honest you shouldn't even be concerned with it. Is it causing problems? No. Android has its ram situation taken care of just let it be and go on with your day.

Because your friends s2 screen is only 800x480, so the gpu only needs a small amount of ram dedicated to it. The gnex has 720p display and requires much more ram to be blocked off to run the display and gpu.

It was well understood but it has just been asked 800,000 times on every device and could easily be discovered with a search.

I had the SGS2 as well and had about 835mb free and was surprised that that the GNEX only had 695mb available. I don't really believe that in order to support 720p, the GNex needed another extra 140mb reserved. Probably reserved for something else.
On the downside, the GNEX does not multitask as good as the SGS2 because it lost the extra available ram.
Every 3rd app in the background seems to get killed whereas on the SGS2 even the 5th app resumes fine from previous state.

Depending on the version it may have more reserved for lte baseband. Things memory are reserved for are baseband, GPU, camera, multimedia decoder, etc. Probly got 128mb or so for GPU, then the other 200mb go to baseband, multimedia decoder, camera, and whatever else.

It was a gsm version.. but i get it now. Jellybean takes more ram. On cm9 it was also 825MB. Now it is 68x MB..

No they probably just haven't tweaked kernel memory settings yet since its still in early development. Cm10 is just started development and cm9 is in release state and cm10 does not have all changes merged
Edit: Also it may never have same amount as the s2 as Samsung configuration for memory is gonna be diff because of the diff chip. The omap soc may need more memory dedicated to it for one reason or another.

Ram management ok this phone is alot better then it ever was with my gs2

here is accounting for some of the "missing ram" your referring to
#define OMAP_TUNA_ION_HEAP_SECURE_INPUT_SIZE (SZ_1M * 90) not sure what this is
#define OMAP_TUNA_ION_HEAP_TILER_SIZE (SZ_128M - SZ_32M) this is GPU and its reserves 128mb
#define OMAP_TUNA_ION_HEAP_NONSECURE_TILER_SIZE SZ_32M
#define OMAP_TUNA_ION_HEAP_LARGE_SURFACES_SIZE SZ_32M
#define PHYS_ADDR_SMC_SIZE (SZ_1M * 3) buffers for I/O?
#define PHYS_ADDR_SMC_MEM (0x80000000 + SZ_1G - PHYS_ADDR_SMC_SIZE)
#define PHYS_ADDR_DUCATI_SIZE (SZ_1M * 105) no idea what ducati is? baseband?
#define PHYS_ADDR_DUCATI_MEM (PHYS_ADDR_SMC_MEM - PHYS_ADDR_DUCATI_SIZE -\
OMAP_TUNA_ION_HEAP_SECURE_INPUT_SIZE)
total reserved = ~300mb
and here is S2
CONFIG_VIDEO_SAMSUNG_MEMSIZE_FIMC0=62464
CONFIG_VIDEO_SAMSUNG_MEMSIZE_FIMC1=15360
CONFIG_VIDEO_SAMSUNG_MEMSIZE_FIMC2=0
CONFIG_VIDEO_SAMSUNG_MEMSIZE_FIMC3=0

CONFIG_VIDEO_SAMSUNG_MEMSIZE_FLITE0=10240
CONFIG_VIDEO_SAMSUNG_MEMSIZE_FLITE1=10240
CONFIG_ION_EXYNOS_CONTIGHEAP_SIZE=71680
total reserved = ~200mb
simply put samsung reserves less ram for system in the S2
The S2 uses less GPU memory for sure (almost 1/2 of the GNex's) and overall less is allocated to the system
also i will say it may depend on the kernel your running because My GNex registers 694mb ram with Franco kernel just fyi
if you want less things to be killed off then set your ram settings to be less aggressive so it will keep processes for longer periods of time
Hi All,
i am not getting full RAM speed which is 512. it shows me only 410. is there way to increase the ram ?
thanks
R: RAM 410 only. pls sugguest
Please don't post this stupid answer here...isn't correct post

We only use 410 MB, the rest is as if absorbed by the system.

Buy new device,REPORTED!!!
Thats all the Ram there is..
As we all know, our device has 768 MB of RAM, so I wonder why we just can use 624MB?
Is Samsung going to update JB 4.2.2 for us ? because our GB ROM uses 555 MB RAM, JB 4.1.2 uses 624 MB RAm ==> JB 4.2.2 uses 768 MB RAM, doesn't it?
There is only 624 Listed because the rest is used by our GPU I would guess. I don't think that we'll get 4.2.2 update. Because we are just a little mid range phone and not a flagship like the s4!

Modules and cpu make use of memory as well, but this is hidden from view to the system so it doesn't show. We do actually have the 768 MB tho
for 4.2.2, CM 10.1 and the custom roms built on it are all good, but i don't expect samsun to release 4.2.2 (or 4.3 even) anytime soon either

if GPU used RAM, then why MiUI v4 has 768 MB of RAM ?
and I remember having read about samsung 4.2.2 update list and this list included our device, I have a link but it's written in Vietnamese, you can use google translate to read it
