is it possible to run Call of Duty 2 on the SPV m 3100? it currently wont boot. how do i check available ram and free it? In the memory option in setting, the first tab is storage card free memory isn't it?

I don't know anything about Call Of Duty...never heard of it. But as to your Q regarding Free Program Memory, no, that has nothing to do with the Storage Card (which is the second tab BTW). Program memory can be found in the right column on the first tab, and represents the amount of RAM available for running programs. There is no convenient way to free up space there without third party apps. One such app is SK-Tools, but you can't expect it to release a whole lot of space. Only a couple of MB, at best.
SK-Tools also has a few 'clean' functions that might help you clear out some space on your device storage and the storage card, but that won't help you with Program Memory.
All three types of memory are for different things, or in the case of storage, different locations (device vs storage card).
Hope this helps,

I tried installing Call of Duty on my 8525 and it installs, but when I click on it to try to play it, it doesnt do anything.
Looking at the PocketGear page, this requires a device with an XScale to run.
ive played this game on my Magician,
i wouldnt be too worried about not being able to play it i mean its good and all but considering the size of the game and the way the controls work its really not worth it.
thanks for the replies guys. I just fancied running some decent 3d stuff on the htc100 to see what it can do. what runs well on it and can it do 3d reasonably well? i have a small collection of games to try out on the device quake1 not really playable for reasons i guess are similar to CoD2 but krally and anthelion2 and warfare inc are fun with in a 3d environment but what do you guys use? I know its not a gaming device but its nice to have some swish looking games on hand.
lol i know what you mean,
virtual pool is one of my favourites its near impossible to beat though so can be a pain in the backside.
a new one thats out is machines at war that was posted in the main general forum, im hanging out for that one.
also the game called "the quest" is quite addictive there are 3 really good expansions if you are into RPGs, the graphics on it are quite average but the game play cant be beaten and by far its one of the best RPGs on the pocket pc. also try the everquest series, has decent graphics and can be addictive its quite old now however but had a few expansions if you like the main game.
i was gutted when CoD2 didnt play on my TyTN but played on my dads Wizard fine! imho its a good game and IF it ran on the Tytn it would be perfectly playable! (quater of screen size of Wizard)
i hope someone can port it possibly but no source code has been released
Quake 1 works PERFECTLY ... ALTHOUGH ... i have an annoying bug when whereever i TOUCH the screen with the stylus, it frames per second drop dramatically ... from about 25 to about 3 ... i have Schlaps WM6 ... this isnt the right thread for me to say that and i'm reposting elsewhere later tonight so don't both answering.
krally is pretty good, and the BEST game is Tomb Raider for ppc, its only 8mb, and if you side open the TyTN and use the direction key (next to screen) for moevement and the keys around "S" (the ones all around it) for actions it works great very playable and i recomend it, although i'm stuck =/
Could not get it to work on the trinity either.
CoD2 needs 28MB of free program memory. Readme says that it may not run if it detects not enough memory. 28MB on Hermes is something near the value of free RAM after cold boot with most ROMs. The best that I've seen is 32MB, but I'm not having Hermes for long time yet. With my Schap's 3.57a I have 23MB now. I'll try that program "SK-Tools" and if it won't work, flash any super lite ROM and I'll know if it's free mem issue. I bet it is, because it works on Wizard as GilesTheAlmighty said. (Wizard has shared storage+program memory; I guess and maybe slightly remember [I had one] you can free up more memory for programs, right?)
Didn't work with 29MB. I give up :]
its a shame about the direction pad only being 4 way and only being able to press one button at a time. I find michael shumachers karting 2002 pretty good when you use the keyboard. Age of Empires is very good just a bit old. I have K-rally but its a bit easy. Warfare inc is great as a simple rts.
One of the most used is Handmark's Scrabble they do monopoly too.
If only snow rally had better control option. Disapointed with that one. Fifa 2002 is a good laugh as is ultimate football. Anthelion2 is long and nicely done where it's nice to look at too.
I haven't tried virtual pool I do have Billiard Master2 though which is hots eat two player and the Ai isn't too bad.
What i'm annoyed at is games like project Gotham are out on s60 but not on the ppc. there seems to be a lack of good new games unless i'm looking in the wrong places.

Nope you aint looking in the wrong places, i also came from the Symbian world. The pocket pc environment has damn good specs but not really alot in the way of games, the games you can get tend to be tricky to use although i like some of the stratergy games and rpg games like the quest which im still trying to finish the latest expansion pack which is going on about 8 months now.
compared to some of the Ngage games though it still doesnt measure up, i dont know how many times i finished Ghost recon on NGage1.
My TouchWiz keeps having to redraw itself after exiting from big apps, such as Browser and Facebook. Also, I find that the browser have to reload opened tabs very frequently; sometimes just existing the browser momentarily to reply a facebook message leads to a tab refresh.
Are these signs of insufficient ram or are these problems software related? Any experts care to shed some light on this issue?

Go into settings, accessibility and use the process manager. Use it and see if you still have the problem. Chances are that it maybe ram or software.

More than enough for GB not nearly enough for ICS. 2GB will be just right for an ICS phone with a custom skin. 1GB for the OS itself 512mb for TW and all the background services/ cached apps and 512mb for the user to run his desired apps.
There is a simple rule in computing - more memory (more resources of any kind) never hurt. Yes, people can quote all the articles they want about mobile OS's not needing that much ram, but -
- Android is not nearly as optimized as WP7/iOS
- Android likes to keep more apps open, it was designed to multitask
- over the next 2 years, memory demands will increase. Every version of Android uses more ram
Trust me, you won't see any high end Android phones with less than 1.5GB ram very soon.
I even think Samsung will release 2 Gb ram version of international GS3 in the next six months. They should have done it at the first place and that would have made the phone more future proof.

How would they make money from mobile sales if you didn't "need" to buy their new phone in 6 months?
EVERY phone company would be thinking about their next model months before the latest phone has even hit the shelves.
They give you what you need not what you will need
They should develop 'virtual memory' like in windows and make use of the 16gb,

Same thing is happening to Galaxy S III as well! Not a dealbreaker, but still bothers me a bit. The thing is, I don't remember this happening to my Galaxy S II.
To all of you, open build.prop with a root explorer and change
Code:
dalvik.vm.heapsize=256m
to
Code:
dalvik.vm.heapsize=128m
and all should be good.
Don't forget to reboot afterwards, otherwise the setting won't be applied.
my S2 hang when open game that use feint.. i think i doesn't support so many app to be open frequently.. or maybe i used gb4.03 and used so many flash app
Guys I'm facing the same problem. When I received my new phone, it was working beautifully. During the next 2-3 days, I tired using all the features and apps like drop box, ChatOn, S Voice, Voice cmds and all other frills. Then I downloaded few apps like Ultra Keyboard, SwiftKeyboard Trial, Ex Dialer, Dolphin Browser HD. Done some heavy surfing, downloaded mails and stuff like that and my phone started to lag heavily. TouchWiz started to redraw every time. Then I had a look at the available RAM. First of all it was only 780 out of 1GB and then free was only 23 MB. Then I looked into the list of cached processes and it was a long list. I restarted my phone, disabled most of the apps, downloaded Apex launcher, set the debugging option to limit background processes to 4 and my RAM is normally around 150-200 MB free. But I can see that it is depleting. Also on the Apex launcher, it happened that while returning from my G Talk, then screen went black for almost 5-7 seconds as if the phone froze. But it came out. I re-checked the memory and it was around 158MB. So I don't know why this happened but it is frustrating to have a top notch device and this kind of experience. Any suggestions?

Ok. I am a s3 user for last month. But disappointed on s3 multitasking capabilities. Seriously If u r playing a basic game like angry birds and if u got a call in middle after finishing call the game reload s itself. Wtf. My old lg optimus net with 512mb ram and arv6 800 mhz pro works good at these things. I was able to use uc browser, equilizer app, songs playing in background and also whats app same time on lg op net. But on s3 having quad 1gb ram it sucks. Some times it reloads equilizer app also that hardly takes 2 or 4 mb
I guess because sammy has loaded so much bloatware that leads to 650 or 700 mb ram always in use. What is the use of these specs then????? :banghead:

It's not due to the bloatware. It's actually a problem with ICS and jellybean. They just use more ram than the older versions of android. For example, my old galaxy s could multitask amazingly well on froyo 2.2.1 but not as well on gingerbread and worse on cm10. Similarly, your lg optimus was probably on froyo of gingerbread, which inherently use less ram. Even if you disabled all the s3's bloatware, you'd only get a minor increase in multitasking capabilities. In order to multitask well on ICS or jb, you'd need 2gb of ram. Hopefully, android 5.0 will optimise ram usage and make multitasking better on 1gb ram phones.

I tried 4.2 leak and Samsung improved memory management on it but that leak has it's own share of bugs and I'm back on 4.1 better to wait for new leak or final product.

No, no; I wouldn't bash you for this. The multitasking issue is a big thing and has been present for a long time. For example, look at my review post and look at the list of negatives: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37700176&postcount=9061
Multitasking really, really sucks on the S3! Samsung have done an awful job.
I really hope Google can fix two major things on the next iteration of Android's OS;
1) Better RAM management (which would improve multitasking and load)
2) Giving us cloud storage for game data (it would be a huge help for those people who wipe or switch ROMs)
Hmmm really hoping that sammy will fix this annoying issue asap. I dnt want to root and install custome rom just nw. I can experiment with these things on my old lg. Its on jb cm 10 already but camera not working. But my s3 is new so will use it stock. Also afraid of sds.

Well no doubt multitasking sucks on s3. I guess it's not due to jelly bean. My friend's s2 works great on jelly bean and multitasking is great on it. I guess the problem is on software side of s3. 1gb ram its more than enough for handling phones like s3.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
This has been discussed plenty and you're right, it's one of the s3's biggest flaws. The only obvious solution is the only one you can't really do - add ram. That or, you know, hope samsung takes his head out of his ass and actually fixes this since it's rather shameful, but I won't be holding my breath.
But there are workarounds, even if not perfect:
- you can use a custom aosp based rom. There're plenty to chose from. Although i haven't tried how their memory management is better than stock's many people report it is. And they usually use much less ram too and that also helps. The bad side is, since samsung didn't really deliever on the sources they promissed, any aosp rom for the s3 isn't as optimized as it could be. This translates in worse battery life, somewhat more lag than expected, aparently worse camera (from what i heard) that stock stuff... Some people don't even notice other can't live with that - up to you.
- use swap. by installing a swap-enabled kernel you're able to multitask more. This isn't the same as adding ram although it's probably as close as it gets functionality wise. What you're doing is creating a file on either the internal or the external sd that will help with your poor ram managing.
You can get more info here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paging if you're ineterested how stuff works. There's also plenty of info on such kernels on the "original development" thread.
There are prices to be paid though, internal and external sd's are never as fast as ram, so you'll probably feel your phone slower overall, even more if you use the external sd which is known to be even slower than the internal sd (card class is a huge factor here since it determines how fast your card is at reading and writing).
Also, since your phone will be constantly writting/reading from sd you're also reducing it's life span. If your internal sd breaks down, you'll need a new phone since the internal sd can't be replaced. If it's the external sd you can just buy another one cheap.
I did try this with an 8Gb class 6 card and a 512Mb swap. Sure it multitasked like a boss but phone was much slower all around. There are reports from people saying they don't notice any slow downs with a class 10 card though. They're rather cheap so i'll give it a try one day.
- sell it and buy the 9305 with 2Gb of ram. Or wait for the new S4. Or, if you're tired of getting shafted by samsung, go for any other brand. To be honest that xperia Z is looking mighty fine lately...
Super nice info friend. Will try other kernel but not nw. Will wait and watch what sammy is gonna do to fix these in next updates??
So many issues wid this flagship droid. Sudden death, exynos abuse, heating issues........

Well, it sucks how the phone just kills, stops or breaks whatever you leave running either in background or when the screen turns off. And it's plainly annoying to see almost every app getting reopened after a while even if nothing significant happened. Since there's no working multitask I'd rather have what apple does for "multitasking". At least apps are reopened where they were left.
But I'm keeping it for a bit more. I guess I could sell it and get the 9305 for little more money but I'm waiting to see whatever new comes out. If nothing pleases me I can always get the 05 at any point later, probably cheaper too. There's a 4.2 rom from Samsung to the s3 just around the corner, and I'm aware this is wishful thinking but who knows...

Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
2 pages and all of the mockery and nonsense flying all over the wall... You guys should sell your phone really, you lose couple hundreds dollar more and buy HTC or sth....save the b*tching
Solution: swap, lower the low Memory Killer value (original value is too high to keep app initial load faster, apps like system tuner or minfree manager will help), lock app logic (so that app doesn't get kill almost immediately when you use another app in between of a big app.
Reason why the galaxy s3 is so bad at multitasking is that to ensure users of less lags, less forgotten apps running in the background hogging the ram. Unfortunately android doesn't have a "pause in between" feature, but you chose it so find the d*mn mod and stop whining. I use AOSP and don't even say I defend samsung.... I just hate the nonsense...
Edit: Btw, titanium backup is only 6$ or so, buy it and freeze the crapwares if you don't use. Freeze, not uninstall so the next time you update your custom rom it won't reappear.

Not sure what is wrong with your phones
Alright, I have read a lot of threads about this issue, but it always amazes me. I am not sure what is up with your phones. I just did a quick test. I opened messaging to a certain message, opened dropbox to my camera uploads, opened xda to this thread, and opened two games (subway surf and hill climb racing). I am able to switch between them with no reloading, fairly quick goes right back to where I was. Checking my ram I am still at 706MB/832MB. After closing it all down I am at 466MB/832MB.
Not sure what I am doing differently. I am running wanamlite v5.5. I have not done anything else special.
I suggest looking a little closer at your phone. What have you done to it and what is taking your memory. Surely there is something(s) you don't really need sucking up your memory.
I know many people report this issue, but I think everyone has a different situation. I don't see how I have no issue and others do, must be some change on the users part that causes/prevents this problem.

Hii. well try this run angry birds & subway surf same time plus songs in background & any messenger like nimbuzz then switch between apps & revert here please. also a live wallpaper. :angel:
I am just mentioning basic games. i tried running gta vc & nfs mw but both reloads after first switch.
I doubt anyone would remember an app called "symot draw SMS.". It worked on the symbian os v2 (s60v2) and I installed it in my n72 which I still use today! I never found anything similar in any later phone OS.
the app made it possible to draw black and white low Res pics to be sent as SMS. nowadays it makes less sense but still many people where I live don't use internet in their phones. for them an app like that would be very appreciated.
so can anyone make such an app? or point me to one?
there would be a substantial market for such an unexplored territory I guess if its possible.
any comments?

Hi everyone i recently got new tablet and its Vonino Epic E8 . Its android 7.0 (i think) ,has 16 gb internal memory, 2 gb ram and it works fine on home screen put whenever i enter any game games are running low fps and in slowmode i tryed going to settings to change animatio speed and i removed it from developer settings but its still slow i even replaced it in service for another same tablet same everything is there a way to fix here is it specs and stuff :
sorry i cant post link cuz im new here
Thanks for helping !
I am not familiar with that model, however am thinking that it could be a couple of things. Unfortunately some are not going to be feasible without skill & $ for part's. Who knows. You might be able to ?
1st given that your RAM is only 2GB, your not going to be able to do much with today's online game's unless they are the old lacking motion types.
From experience, I am going to guess that your 2GB once the device is up & running it's basic necessities is more like 1-1.3GB. The HD alone may have started @ 16GB but the OS alone might need 2GB BEFORE you have even entered any login info.
That unfortunately limit's your options. Obviously! Dumbing down to Solitaire & such may be possible but not realistic. Could look at the casing for a chance of being able to open it (voids any warranty if do!) so can swap out the RAM for more. IF THAT CAN BE DONE EVEN!! Take care doing some research on the capacity of it. Having an SD slot doesn't mean it will be able to use a 250mb SD card.
Safer yet could go more expensive, is shop around the electronic repairs options in your area. Although licensed or not, warranty is null. Yet safer than not being sure of opening it let alone using right part's.
Lastly if this is an Android, get yourself the Google apps of Game Optimization & Game Launcher. Between the two of them, they can give you some more control over features as s gamer you won't be able to get to. The Launcher on my phone is set to run ALL game's as balanced between graphics & battery use. The Optimization gives a few toggles to silence incoming, lock the brightness... They are not much but offer some control.
