I don't think you understand how RAM and android work together. Having a big amount of ram used up is not a bad thing. it just means that there are plenty of things cached so apps start faster, web sites load up faster etc. If you have a big battery drain then you might reconsider your ram issues as probably something is active all the time and using your cpu involuntarily which shouldn't be the case.

Well i didnt use to have this problem and it gets to the stage where the phone starys to lag to much and when i check the ram it sometimes have 50 ram free only. I have to restart the phone and then after a few hours when i check the phone again its back to max ram without me starting anything.

This is probably ur faluty sd card

Free RAM is wasted RAM

Its not a faulty sd.

You're troubleshooting a problem that doesn't exist. So good luck, you'll never be able to fix it because it's not a problem in the first place.

Hmm strange people around xda lately.
Of-course it's a problem you numbnut and its called "memory leaks" but you wouldn't know that while trolling around.
The perennial problem of having low free memory causing lagginess and slowness in launching apps. When you have free memory lingering around the number of 40MB or less, the Android OS just lags like hell.

Xda app with less CPU usage?

Is there a way I can rollback to the previous xda update ? On my sgs3 this app starts to take up plenty of cpu and ram to the point it lags when scrolling and eventually force closes. Almost 3-4 times daily when browsing. I am not trying to ask for warez , although I am on the free version.

Thanks but what I was asking was the previous version of xda. It seemed to use less CPU and would not lag as much. I'll be browisjng one forum for a while before it starts to lag , slow down , then just freezes and force closes.

Ram always at 1.12 gb!!

Usually my ram is at 500-600mb at normal usage but now after I installed antutu benchmark test from play store it keeps increasing to .9gb to 1.12gb with no usuage at all I clear ram leave it then check it out after hour or so the ram fills up and draining the battery with 10% drained I restarted the phone same thing even with uninstalling the app it is really annoying draining the battery like that and having ram at this level what do u think I should do or what is causing it.
Thanks

See it just keeps filling like that

It will remain always like that. you need not to do anything, android itself having LMK(low memory killing) and will make free whenever it needs.
So keep as it is, It's good for health.
PS : Though you want to keep free, use option limit background process in developer option in setting, don't know ultimately how much it will improve battery, but surely it will take time to open application.
Don't worry too much about RAM usage, and don't use task killers. Unlike with Windows or your usual linux distribution, android has control on which app stays in memory and which one is killed. And it is pretty good at managing this without user intervention.
As for battery life, I recommend BetterBatteryStats if you whant to know what is draining it. But by personal experience, I think you should look at apps that use background data connection, like Facebook.
Mine always sits around 1.55 - 1.65ghz lol
Edit: I just realised I wrote GHz instead of GB. *facepalm* fail on my behalf lol

Gosh there is difference between cpu and ram
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
I did a factory reset and same problem still exist ram at 0.95gb - 1.12gb why. When I usually do factory reset it settles at 500-600mb now with no apps it is high as mentioned above.

I'm annoyed because it wasn't like that before and annoyed me more when I did a factory reset and found ram high as before :banghead:

Does anything not work as you think it should? Or is this just a matter of numbers? Any performance issues?
See what I'm getting at?
What's the problem?

The problem it wasn't like that and now the issue is the battery drainage with this high ram even after a factory reset.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
The battery drainage is much more likely from you constantly trying to kill all those apps, since they then have to restart again. If your phone is not slow, just don't worry about it.

Install an apo called ram booster. Works gr8

Why do some apps appear multiple times in back ground?

I think this is making less ram available. . How can I change this?

You have 2GB of RAM on a phone. Trust me the days of worrying about what's running and what's not is behind us. Besides with ram the old saying, "waste not, want not." comes into play. You can't be wasting RAM if you're not using it. But I wouldn't worry about those extra processes.
I would prefer the ram being free from unwanted loads.. One facebook is bad enough but two? Is there a way to fix this?

Sup I guess it's normal for the apps to appear multiple times and using double ram as a result

2, 3 or sometimes even 4 seconds is normal for all Samsung devices. This includes Phone, Contacts, Messages and Camera. These r the main apps having this lag.

OK thanks a lot man, I'm using the aosb so I don't know if it's really an issue that's Y was asking the pros for the advice.
Also I did notice that the lag stopped on formatting and started a little later

This will continue and even grow after a year or so. S1 in fact was ****ty but s2 was powerful and yet it had the same lag in above mentioned built in apps. So it's normal in touchwiz. There r so many other greats features in touchwiz that this minor lag (which once was a BIG issue for me) is no more an issue for me.
