I'm at 1.15 right now, but you got to realize that in Android unused RAM is really just a waste. With these modern phones it will keep apps in RAM to speed up launch times, response time, etc. As long as your RAM isn't so full it lags to launch new apps you're good. Android will clear space when it's needed.
Great article about this

A rant...any solutions?

My Pandora doesn't like to multitask on this phone. When I opened xda app, pandora autoclosed. Same thing with camera, and some other apps. My signal is great so whats going on? Lol

Xheck your RAM and check for settings in any task killer/launcher/apps you may be using including pandora if it has a option to close when RAM gets close to none available it will close out the biggest strain...
When did you get your ET4G TODAY?
also make sure you have the newest version of pandora ;p

Yep, I've got no task killer (other than the preinstalled one). Just got the phone today and I got the latest pandora. Maybe once I root it, it'llsolve the problem itself.

Try memory booster lite. But you are better off installing the V6 Supercharger.

Its just not especially Ram Level 2.
Just hit clear memory on the Ram Tab. And kill any unnecessary apps on the active apps tab

its not an app its a script you install through recovery.

I wish I could like the same post multiple times. So many people ask me how my Epic runs so smooth even after days of uptime and constant use. I answer "with good settings, choosing good apps, and otherwise letting Android do what it's built to do and not changing things assuming I know better".
Sent from my SPH-D700 CM9 4.0.4
so r u saying keep letting it run like poo? because what it is doing is pissing off right now
Try Memory Booster lite or the built in task killer. Just don't keep killing system apps that are going to reload anyway because that will drain your battery. Android on the miniscule amount of memory the Epic has, does not always handle memory correctly and some apps are poorly written and do not release memory and resources.

Same here. I run CM9 RC1 completely stock and let it do it's thing. I'm at 200+hrs uptime and it's still smooth as butter.

As we all know every phone and every user and every configuration is different. Marcusant and Zeinzu both of you have had more than your share of your phones acting different than the majority. It would be more helpful to suggest how to help this guy than brag about how wonderful your phone is. Makes you guys sound like someone else we know. Some phones do not clear memory well and can use help.
OP use some of my suggestions here.

If it makes you feeel any better, mine is always between 300 and 315, even from boot it is at least 250 and soon ramps up as all my apps are loaded
Oh thanks for the info man. I guess its just normal then . But are you feeling a little lag in that condition of ram?
Sent from my BioWonder using xda premium
What ROM are you using? Maybe you can try another ROM, or maybe you can try to disable some apps's background processes, it may help a little bit
i usually use go powermaster to know what app are runnig in background, i sometimes i uninstall, usually maps, facebook, email, that kind of stuffs are always runing and wasting ram
you can try to install v6supercharge and use the script to clear ram, time by time...
I'm using indroid remics when I feel the lag, now I'm using biohazard it's smoother though
I already installed v6 supercharger on the indroid but no result still laggy

lags are just normal, since its android. its a bit complicated but here http://www.appleinsider.com/article...ag_occurs_more_often_in_android_than_ios.html
with v6 supercharger you have less ram I guess, because it holds launcher always in ram, so restarts are disabled, and it makes multitasking better. I dont know what exactly is meant by "better multitasking" but I guess it keeps apps longer in ram, so they dont need to re load. but i'm not sure about it.
maybe you can try a lighter launcher like launcherpro (it needs 9-15mb ram).

Yes sometimes, it really annoys the pants off me when i'm in a hurry but I came to SGW from a Nokia N95 8Gb which was stuffed to the point of bursting (not literally) with software - so the lag on my droid is still far less than I had got used to.
From a fresh flash of a new ROM it amazes me how 225 - 250mb is all thats needed, but all the apps I install are pretty much essential to me in one way or another (otherwise i'd have a dumb phone instead ) so I just put up with it, and save toward a new droid with RAM measured in Gig not Meg :fingers-crossed:
My phone usually use up to 210mb of ram and that's all, sometimes 180mb

Since its still alpha,it consumes more ram than the beta on gingerbread,ive been using it and so far i've got enough ram management. You can try 512 first if you like.

High RAM usage

Lately I've noticed my battery life draining fast. So when I check my RAM usage its always around 1 GB at any given time. Is something wrong here? Ive removed most bloatware apps, I have no Widgets running and maybe 5 apps I downloaded. Nor am I running any live wallpaper. Just seems like a lot of RAM for not doing much with my phone..

How do you guys keep your Rams low?

I am just curious on what are people doing to keep the Ram count down other than closing constantly unused apps manually.
Mine is always up there and I am constantly removing and clearing apps.
Thanks

It's all about what u got running on your phone, u know apps,games,widgets, LWP, Sometimes even some launchers suck alot of RAM. I would suggest u download greenify app from the playstore, that should help a little.
Just leave that alone, android is smart and you're just wasting battery life. Google android ram management or why not to kill apps on android, there are about 1000 posts about why not to do so anymore.
