If you had that many on your G1, to be fair they weren't on the phone... they were on your EXT partition of your sd.
Also, the Vibrant has more than enough memory, so that is not the problem.
what launcher are you using? Using a task killer? what else are you doing?
Mine is ultra zippy... no TK, using ADW EX. You are not restoring system apps, or apps that were included in the rom are you?

You have to keep track of how many of your apps run in the background, use background data, or both.
not everyone needs a task killer, but generally speaking, people who have large amounts of apps are eventually going to need one. Only because, statistically i would guess probably 30% or so of the third party apps you have installed stay running in the background. therefore, potentially slowing down your phone by chewing up RAM, while also consuming more battery.
when it comes down to it, this is a RAM issue, not a memory issue. i have a lot of third party apps as well. a lot of them like to open on there own and try to run in the background.....not happening. I use a healthy combination of a conventional task killer, auto-ram optimizer, and autostarts. it may SOUND like a lot, but each one of those does a specific job that helps me control my apps and what they do.
I have that overstock kernel that has more ram
Let me see how a taskiller does

With 4d launcher and a lot of apps?

I get lag with both ADW EX and the standalone version when I have scrolling of wallpaper enabled. Once I turn that feature off, it goes to be as smooth as LauncherPro. Another problem with ADW EX is that with caching turned off, you get color banding in some widgets (facebook, twittet, etc) - LP handles all widgets fine, no color banding whatsoever. ADW EX on the other hand has lots of themes to offer, I get to choose icons for any of my apps on the go.
I'm gonna try the no wallpaper scrolling so thanks!

4D app drawer is a bit slow compared to Launcher Pro...it speeds up with some use, but overall I prefer the vertical new drawer due to the speed of the 4D option.
Edit: turned off transparency and all is fine
How do oyou turn off transparency
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I had to turn it on, it's off by default...app drawer options -> background color
On color selection screen make sure the bottom slider labeled "alpha" is slid all the way to the right.

Don't use 4D Drawer
I use ADW Launcher without 4d drawer and it works like butter. But 4d drawer needs more resources. I have LG Optimus Net with CyanogenMod 7.2, ES Task Manager and it has a bit to non lag with 4d drawer. Try a newer version of ADW Launcher. Hope it helps
Is there any way to make an app like the galaxy devices have? Yes I know most of them (except sgs2 lol) have low ram, even the galaxy s ... but some of them take battery...
Force close an app without the need to go to app info, running services, cached processes...
Also, there is no way to see the foreground apps without having a 3rd party app (I use appswipe! For that)... foreground apps may cause wakelocks too
Any talented dev to make a good thing for us? Thank you in advance, if you do it...
Why not use CyanogenMod feature in the application>development "long press back button to kill task"

1. Install 3rd party app(kill all apps feature)
2. Reboot your phone after you friend or someone used it
3. I pretty sure a dev like Andy wont implement it as you know task managers are...not really needed.
4. Make it a habit to kill long press back button...
5. Why not don't use the apps that have wakelock...I have a tight app control here and no wakelocks eventhough all my apps(if they are in memory) are running

1. Those are task killers
2. If I let a friend play, it will only give it back to me when in a rush, so can't reboot, and all the apps stay on background
3. We need something like ICS has, but on GB, to see what apps are running (special softkey in galaxy nexus, I think long-press home on ours, ICS users should say how...)
4. Done I sometimes play on other phones, with softkeys that don't need to be pressed (You know how) and I get scared when I play games and I accidentally press back
5. No more wakelocks except google services and android system

Hi, i turned off all my widgets to save ram, but they are all in the widget tab.
Do i gain ram if i disable them in titanium backup so they dont appear in the widget list?
Or if they are off i can leave them.
Thanks.
Anyone please
Of course but so what that doesnt have to do with battery consumption.
Keep reading dude.

No if they are not on a homescreen they won't take memory.

Is there a way to stop people from asking the same questions over and over?
Please use the search function.
Short version: if your phone starts running low on available Ram, it will kill unnecessary cached apps you are currently not using. You can change WHEN it triggers the killing, but not really the WHAT.

So, we know task managers are bad in Android. Free RAM is useless. What about shutting down them through Android own Recent apps? I dont do that, but I know some people who does that, and if I am correct sliding them away from recent apps closes them. Is this bad or useless?

Android usually has its own memory control mechanism and will close apps wen it needs , but sliding them from the recent app menu also closes them this might be useful when something is consuming CPU to save battery run-time.,
most kill task managers usually use the kill command and forcefully closes the app.
