Hello Android Gurus
I have bought Galaxy S (My first Android phone) 2 weeks ago and i have been experimenting with it since. I have noticed one thing regarding how android manages memory and its quite alarming.
When i start my phone I typically have around 160 Mb of RAM. As i load an application that requires 10 MB for example, the available RAM evidently drops to 150 MB but when I kill the application the RAM goes up but not to the previous level (e.g. goes up to 157).
little RAM is always lost as applications are opened and closed. This means that after a couple of hours of using the phone, the RAM goes down to 40 MB and the phone becomes REALLY laggy and you have to restart
The above behavior is typical of windows mobile, and that is exactly why i shifted to Android thinking it is better.
My questions to the android experts out there are the following:
1- Why is memory leaking like this. Such a behavior results in a phone with very bad user experience
2- Is this typical behavior of Android, if yes then i'd better sell my Galaxy S and look for an alternative OS
3- Is this due to TouchWiz by Samsung, if yes then i will wait for subsequent updates to see if this problem could be resolved by Samsung
4- Will the 2.2 Froyo update resolve this issue ?
I used to have an iphone 3gs before this one, and no matter how much you open or close applications, the UI is always smooth and responsive. The thing that made me really hate Apple and its products is their "Closed OS" that does not enable you to do much with your phone. That is why i moved to Galaxy S thinking it would give me a better experience
Thanks for your thoughts.

This is quite strange, the less RAM you have the more non-responsive the phone is and laggy.
Enough RAM has to be maintained to guarantee a smooth user experience.
If the phone requires 100Mb of RAM to run smoothly, then this much has to be maintained.
from my experience with the Galaxy S, there has to be atleaset 80 to 100 MB to maintain a somewhat smmoth interface.
Edit:
I also understand from your input that this is a Samsung problem, not an android problem, and that no matter how low the RAM is, the interface will always be smooth ??????
Mate, just one word - google.
There are about a billion articles online on android memory management, how to impoove it etc.

i dont understand how this shows anything? You are manually exiting each one of the games, forcing it to quit anyways. A better test is just to hit the home button, and continually load up the next game.

+red baloon on vid which says phone was used for >day, so "free" ram was <50MB, becouse browser etc. reserve some MBs for quick comming back.
And still was no problem to run anything I choose.
Dont quite understand..care to explain more? I'm getting puzzled abt this shortage of ram thingy. Some suggest to use task killer to free up rams while you say dont. But looking at your videos its fast..please explain. Thanks

Android handles the memory management itself. The moment it runs below certain amount of free memory it will start the kill apps. There is no need to run an app killer. Altho the default settings are not enough to provide a smooth experience. Check out the freememmanager app in the market to change the settings. As long as min 45 mb is free everything will run smooth.

This is typical Android behavior. See ya later.
Really though, if you're killing tasks, then you're already taking horrible advice from people who haven't an inkling of an idea on how Android manages memory.
Keep in mind that your phone is only using 256MB of its total 512MB of memory. Once a newer kernel is released with himem the phone will use all 512MB.
Android's garbage collection can be set to be more aggressive which would sort of fix your issue by killing more background applications. However, you might as well wait for the newer kernel which will fix your problem anyway.
Though it was more 320 out of 512

This has to do a lot with Android's garbage collector. The reason task-killers are not the best way to go, is because when you kill tasks a lot of the memory is not recovered (garbage collector does not work as it should). Android by default won't start killing apps until you get between 20-30MB of memory. For some reason, in the SGS, as you said, when ram drops below 70MB, the phone starts to feel pretty laggy; the best way to remedy this is to use applications like autokiller or minfreemanager, which require you to be rooted.
For a more in-depth explanation of how android kills processes see this http://andrs.w3pla.net/autokiller/details (from the developer of Autokiller).
I would like to know why the phone feels so laggy when ram drops below 70MB, from what I understand, this shouldn't be the case...
2- Is this typical behavior of Android, if yes then i'd better sell my Galaxy S and look for an alternative OS
--> No, this is not typical behavior of Android, i use my HTC Magic before Galaxy S, no lagging problem even the memory is lower than 15MB.
The galaxy S defaults are too low for when it starts removing apps from RAM, you need to root it and then install minfree manager or autokiller (which is not a task killer don't be deceived by the name)

doesn't solve the mystery because this is a non-issue on other android phones.
why do i need to keep 50-70mb free to get a smooth running phone where others can handle 30mb free without problems.
Goshh..thanks for simplified. Now ive removed the task killer..and stand firm by the android golden rules...cheers..

I noticed this same low ram behavior on my galaxy s. After boot the phone shows like 180 mb of ram free after a couple days the phone will drop down to 30 mb of ram all the while I'm killing apps running in the background with task killer.
The phone slows down significantly even after I kill everything.i thought android was supposed to circumvent these kind of low ram Issues.

So you suggest that I not force close any apps using taskkiller and just let android 2.1 do it's thing with memory management?
When I had the phone for the first week without taskkiller installed, the device ran very slow after the first couple days of use. Your saying that the slowness will go away as android dishes out memory effectively?
I'll uninstall taskkiller and let the device run longer than a week and see if it ever speeds up. thanks
Ok so I was running an app to check on CPU speeds (unrelated research) when I noticed that this same app was saying I only had 340mb of RAM free...
This seemed a bit strange, considering this tablet has 3GB of RAM on board, and I'm not really running anything at the moment.
I went into the storage setting page, and looked at running processes, and it says that I am using 2.5GB of my RAM.
but... if I add up all the ram usage on all the running processes, it only adds up to about 500mb....
So what is using up the other 2gb?
If anyone has any suggestions, it'd be nice, as at the moment it seems I only have 1gb of usable RAM in this device...
EDIT:
Nevermind, I think I solved it... sort of. I found that the ram clearing button is in a different place than I remember, and I have managed to clear out some more space... though even after a full reset 1.5gb of ram is immediately being used. Seems a lot.
Though this is a stock rom etc so I suspect thats normal.

You probably aren't using all 2.5GB for actual running programs.
Windows 7 does a great job of managing money. If it has any unused memory it will hold often used programs or data in memory in case it's needed. If a running program needs that memory it's quickly shifted. Otherwise when you reopen that program you recently closed, it may load quickly from memory rather than from the drive. I suspect Android does things similar.
Modern systems programmers consider "free" memory to be wasted, so they put it to the best use they can anticipate. That gives you the benefit of all memory as often as possible. If they only allowed the memory to be used for what's needed right now, your Note would only have about 1 GB memory, and would be considerably slower.
It's a little like having the cook wash your car while waiting three hours for the turkey to cook. You get both the turkey and the car wash.

I used Windows 7 as an example because I know how it works. Like you, I imagine Android 4.3 does the same thing.
I was wondering about this as well. On my Note 2, when I clean the ram, it will go to 480-500 / 1.75g on this tab, ext I could get is 1.33/2.75.......
I went through and turned off a lot of the apps, it helped free up a little bit.
Does anyone have a list of the apps that are safe to turn off?

I have LTE version with Snapdragon and when I start the tablet, it uses about 890MB of 2,35GB available (yes, it has 3GB RAM, but graphic processor uses some of this RAM)... When it loads all apps to RAM (about 50 of them, we know android do this) and I start few apps(FB, Gmail, Chrome, Hangouts for example), I still use only about 1,3GB of RAM... So almost 1GB is still free
In Android having too much free ram is not a good thing. Let your apps use it, you don't have to worry about not having enough ram, OS manages it well for you.

Android is a mobile OS which means that it can backup and restore not needed apps if necessary and the 3GB are only the runtime memory beside this it can use the whole internal memory for "running" apps. So long Android got enough memory it holds all apps in memory which speed up the whole device. Therefore it is positive that the Note use his whole 3GB memory and don't think that killing apps or free memory will be a good idea. It will slow your device and produce lags.

They are both right. Android is based on linux. Linux uses ram very effectively to cache apps and data to speed up your system. When something needs ram it removes a different app or data from the ram to keep moving. It works totally different from Windows. Check out this article.

If you want to change how your ram is managed, and you have root, you can use the v6 supercharger or a simple minfree setting app. V6 is in the developer section of the general android forum on this site. I've found that m ram fills up from cached apps. V6 will let you auto clear however often you want.
After installed few apps to the new oppo find 7a, the memory in use constantly stay at over 1GB and only 300-400MB available. anyone else has the similar issue? even close all the recent apps doesn't seem to increase the memory available. is it ROM/OS related issue?
I got 1,23Go RAM used for 542Mo available after clearing recent apps.
This is a common misconception, but on Android unused memory is wasted memory. It's good to have that being used by Android daemons running in the background as it speeds up processes and user experience.
I'd say don't worry about.

thanks for the reply. it's just my OCD...i always wanna see more memory available than in use...
Just as Sean said, unused ram is useless ram.
It's all about access speed, the more data you store in ram the more content is quickly available.
Flash memory has an average transfer rate of 5 to 7mb/s while ram has an average transfer rate of several gb/s.
The difference in speed here is very noticeable and the main reason why recent android versions (or Linux in general) caches so much data in ram.
Long story short, the more ram is in use, the faster your phone gets.
400mb is basically the safety threshold that it keeps unoccupied just to be sure it has some left in case of an emergency (you trying to open content that isn't already cached).

If I don't reboot my Xperia Z for a few days it ends up with like 170mb of free ram and loses its power to multi task and the phone because laggy as hell lol >_>
That's a different issue I would say.
The services occupying the ram should give up caching memory once a newcomer requires ram.
This changes nothing about the fact that, if it's done right, caching is the way to go.
Probably a bugged software component rather than an broken ideal.

after 2-3 days of use, i find that the free (unused) RAM are actually not a problem, doesn't matter there is 300MB left or 600MB left, i can hardly tell the difference. but the most important thing is, the experience is very smooth and running well, no laggy. i'm actually very impressed. i think OPPO did a great job on managing background apps and optimizing user experience on the find 7a here!
Hey,
So I've been using my Nexus 5x with much pleasure but lately it's getting impossible to switch tasks fast, because they're all closing because of memory shortage. Looking in my settings it shows me that Android OS (780mb), play services (150mb) and Android system (140mb) and System UI (90mb) together take up almost 1,2GB of the 1,8gb memory. I don;t know if this is related to me being in the preview program (and having a lot of preview images updates over the last year) or it's just that the newer Android takes up more memory.
I'm pondering stepping out of the bèta program and reflashing the stock rom, but I was wondering if any of you can shed some light if this will actually help.
Thanks!

It's part of the new method for ram management. It's normal. You'll notice those take up tons of ram even on a fresh install. Over time the more apps you install the more processes they auto start. This is what will cause those things to happen. For me I noticed for example first when the HDR processing of taking a picture would push hangouts out of memory even when I was actively talking voice, it just wasn't in the front running. Android does much like windows now in claiming lots of memory to better manage and allocate it as needed

On a fresh boot, my phone takes up 1.2GB of RAM, and quickly rises to ~1.4-1.5GB. It usually says there, as I don't use a lot of apps, so I'm not multitasking a lot. It's pretty odd compared to my other devices that use anywhere from 500-700MB of RAM for the OS, but it seems to do it's job just fine nonetheless.
Side note, since I don't have a lot of Apps, and I'm not concerned about RAM usage, I've disabled zram and ksm. Haven't noticed any difference, TBH.

On a fresh boot it loads every apps auto start process. So that doesn't change anything at all. I am not talking about apps using ram from being run. I'm talking about all the processes they have that are triggered and restart when things occur.

Hi guys, does your RAM usage for System is around 2.7GB - 3GB? (Under "Developer options > Running services")
Previously when on Nougat, System usage of RAM is around 1.7GB to 2GB. But ever since upgrade to OOS 5.0 and then recently to OOS 5.0.1, it goes up to 2.7GB and sometimes even 3.1GB!
I'm rooted using SuperSU, I try reflash rom and use magisk but the System still use around the same RAM.
I have a handful of apps that I frequently access usually cached in the RAM. During Nougat time whenever I open back those app it will open immediately, indicating that it's still in RAM. But now I have to wait the app to load, must be because of the System is using additional 1GB RAM that makes my apps being cleared from the cache.
Is it OOS 5.0.1 use so much RAM for System? Or there's bug on my system? Compared to Mi A1 8.0, it's System only use around 1.3GB RAM.
Is there a way to make the System use less RAM? Or any other custom ROM where it's System use less RAM?
My OP3 with OB29 is eating that much ram too but it is not problem for me because we have a loot of ram

So I guess it's normal for 1+3 Oreo to use so much RAM for System? That feels like poor optimization from Oneplus developer. Even Windows 10 system use around 2GB or less.
I have a handful of apps that I prefer to be kept in RAM cache, it's annoying to have to wait for these apps to be load again every time I access it.

Thats because most of windows 10 does its stuff off machine.
Unused ram in android is completed wasted ram. The more options you add to a device the more ram usage it will take. Not to mention apps are second rate when it comes to ram usage. Its more important for it to be used on system stuff then on apps.
Also with the way doze works. Your apps will have to reload alot anyway. So its just something to get used to.

System usage on Nougat is 2GB, now jumped to 3GB in Oreo. That's a big increase, considering that other devices with Oreo can get by with around 1.5GB System usage.
Even with Doze, if the app still stay in cache it would be load immediately compared to app that have to be fetch in storage. Because of this it feels like Oreo is slower than when in Nougat.

What do you expect? With each update comes more features. With more features comes higher ram usage.
Again. Unused ram is wasted on Android. It doesn't even remotely work like it does on windows.
If your apps are reloading then there is something rom with the the setup. Be it the OS or what have you.
I normally am about at 1.5gb when I'm it using my device. Mind you I don't care about keeping apps in the background. When I'm done with them I completely close them out.

But don't you think 2GB jump to 3GB is high compared to the features added in Oreo?
Supposedly my frequent accessed apps should stay cached in RAM, but because not enough free RAM it was flushed, presumedly because those apps don't have elevated priority compared to System apps. Missed those days where we have more control of the RAM by using minfree and can set ourself each app priority value.
Your 1.5GB is your System usage of RAM?
