Hi,
How to extend memory product?
This product have 128 mb of RAM and 64 mb of RAM in technical fact sheet but only 37.63 mb for storage and 48.02 for program in use
Where is the memory missing?
Thank
I just recently got my TP2 in the mail yesterday am I'm new to everything especially window mobile phones. It says that the TP2 has 512 MB ROM and 288 MB RAM but when I check my memory settings it says:
Storage:
Total 285.44MB
In use:52.77MB
Free:232.67MB
Program
Total:188.21MB
In use 89.37MB
Free:98.84
Someone told me that this is right and that the rest of the memory was hidden memory can someone confirm that for me? Thanks!
Welcome to forums
That is correct
The important is the free RAM you have and that will depend in what ROM are you using, as some of them take a lot of RAM and some others leaveyou with more space.
To give you an idea, I´m running Energy ROM and I have free RAM of 60-80Mb
and before I had a clean ROM with no manila and I got 90-110Mb free.
Hope it helped,
And don't forget to vote!
Yeah, quite a lot of that memory is part of the baseband (so it can't be used as regular RAM), a lot more is part of the pagepool (a program memory cache), some by the radio stack, some by the frame buffer and some by the XIP (kernel), so that 288MB of RAM turns out to be much less for practical uses. If you're interested in learning more about how RAM is used in Windows Mobile, this MSDN article helps explain things a bit.
I heared that WM 6.5 uses a virtual ram, adding the microSD card space to internal RAM. Is this a hoax or true?
I've never heard of that, and according to my tests, it does not.
Yes i would also like to know is it possible can someone develop a app which can make our device capable of accepting storage mem for ram like windows vista and 7's ready boost which uses flash driver for increasing ram.
Do you know what's the RAM speed (and access speed)?
And do you know what's the BEST SDCard speed?
That would only slow up the whole OS.
In light of recent discoveries about the HD2's hidden 128MB RAM, I've written a small application which uses the native Win32 API to allocate as much memory as it can (up to 2GB), and verifies it.
Notes:
This application is designed to test the limits of your device's memory. In particular, to test if the HD2's additional 128MB is actually usable or not.
This application will attempt to allocate as much memory as it can, OS limits notwithstanding. The application allocates memory in the OS's shared memory space, which means that it isn't privy to the usual 32MB address space limit.
Because the application isn't limited to 32MB memory usage, you don't need to run multiple instances to consume your memory. Just one instance will do.
This application does not use .NET, and instead uses the direct low-level kernel memory management functions (VirtualAlloc and VirtualFree) to reserve, commit, and free virtual pages. This means that the application has much more precise control over memory, and can consume memory until only a couple of megabytes remain.
This application verifies the memory it allocates, by writing a byte pattern to the memory, and reading it out again. This is necessary because the Windows CE kernel does not commit pages to physical memory unless the memory page is read/written from at least once. This also guarantees that the memory is, in fact, usable and valid.
The attached zip file includes an executable file and source code (C++, requires Windows Mobile 6 SDK).
hi! i've tryed it in my rom without the hidden ram enabled and the result is:
Success:could not commit pages
memory eaten:132MB
and after the programs close my free ram is 145, i guess last 10mb are not usable for some reaso? (WM6.6 memory management?)
regards

also when used with rom with hidden rams avaliable it closes before it the 1mb is filled
hm, got 180 on my rom
Memory eaten : 276 MB
after 290 MB free
Sorry. This is not working for me... It did not constantly allocate any ram on my device...
with a modified version of my "old" program, i was able to eat up 99% of ram... Still, I think in my first attempt i did proof the existance, cuz i definetly used more then 448 MB of RAM....
greez
Soft-resetted my HD2, run the app. and got 204 MB. So does this proove that I don't have any hidden RAM or not?
everyone has 572mb- stop bothering...
We don´t have the 1. of april, but carneval is still going on, so this may be the reason for this joke i think.
I'm interested if this will work for X1?
it is for HD2
but onyone tst this for X1?
sorry for my bad english
Is 25 minutes to long
I have the htc touch pro with mightyrom and i am running this now. it has been about 25 mins. is that to long or can i assume it does not work on my pro.
Do you think this would work on Rhodium too?
Thanks,
Im getting 272-276mb eaten fairly consistently after the os has been up for a few hours.
and 280-284mb after a soft reset on my HD2

It's odd, it should work on any WM6 (or higher) device.

the results window may get hidden Ive had that a few times.
use a taskmanager to bring it to the front
Work on Diamond 2 (Topaz) ?

i try out but i don't see any change in ram memory... stil 179mB..
Keep in mind that the application frees up all the memory it chews once it's done. So after the application exits, your amount of free RAM will not be changed. The application should report how much memory it managed to allocate once it's done, and if you open up the memory screen in settings (or whatever) you should see the amount of free memory drop as the program runs.
Sounds like some pretty heavy stuff. this is gonna be huge
I think, this program can be used for cleaning ram
thank.
Is there any way of changing the app memory usage limit in registry? For some reason mine is set to 10mb I know you can change virtual memory cpu and graphics in registry But how can i change app memory usage? I have W10m 10.0.14393.953
