I just curious about ram usage on my x10 using feralabs rom for locked bootloader.
If I go to settings---applications---running services it says 168 used and around 20-25 free MB but as far as I know user available ram is 287 MB.
Also, go launcher ex shows around 240/287 MB used ram.
what else is using my ram? and why difference in settings and go launcher ram info?
Its normal mate... When I owned a xperia x10... Faced the same issue... But later came to know it was OK!

Install an app ZDbox, it has great widget called task killer. When you tap it, it will show running apps.
Or if you want extra and complete control even with system running apps, the install OSmonitor, it will show completely all of apps.

THIS ARTICLE IS ONLY FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES. ALL CREDITS TO THE APP OWNER. FOR THOSE WHO KNOW ABOUT THIS APP , LEAVE NO COMMENTS.
I found an application on the market called 'Swapper for root' , which creates a swap memory to speed up your android device.
I tried it and found some great improvement on my regular usage speed. Search ' swapper' on the market and install.
Some changes i noted-
* No lagging in 'Abduction when switching to full graphic detail
* Home screen more responsive
*Apps loading a bit faster
*ROOT REQUIRED*
Let me know if the app does good for you!
Hi. How did you measure your 30% speed increase?

I've just edited the post Read
Just tried this on my mini pro.
The app works, as far as i can see but by using the busybox free command, as recommended by the app owner, it does not use any swap memory.
There is a swap file created on the sdcard though!
Any thought on this?
Thanx for mentioning the app!

Looks interesting, but where do I get a kernel with swap support (or just a kernel module would be fine) for x10 mini?
Ok.
I have come to know that it lags abit in some stages having rain ex japanese jump.
So i may root and install it
Thanks dude
Seems working. Thanx for sharing.

Exactly, but why do people claim it works?
Maybe a placebo effect? I dunno. Will give this a try though...
OT
Abduction works flawlessly on my x10 mini pro. Even NFS Shift works smoothly. The only app that stall in the middle of the game for me is iBasket. I have to kill some apps before playing it.
-Pabs
Abduction gets sluggish on the stage where it rains !!
Buat... The real name of the app is swap for root 2?
Thank You!
Well it works fine
How swap works
In my opinion it doesn't makes sense because swap is used just when does not there any memory ram available in the system, and if that occurs frequently there something wrong, maybe there are many apps installed; more than the phone can handle.
To know if this app is making effect, download "terminal emulator" and type "free -m". That will show how much swap space is used. If it is 0 this swap app does not make any effect.
Means it using our SDcard as RAM when the internal ram is used up?
Sure will the SDcard class type play some role too?
And running this apps in the background is also some resources eater as well as battery drainer??

this should not happen, it should never be necessary to free up ram manually. silly samsung implemented this function because they were not able to do propper auto memory management. but that is solved already.
is this player better than power amp?

I agree...but the phone still goes very low on memory sometimes....i use autokiller memory optimizer...or something like that..)....it needs root ... but does its job fairly efficiently
it starts and when ur phone is oc then it isnt laggy ^^
its funny because you said official and than beta..
Thanks
hey how to go in settings of this Music player as seen in screen shot???
Just out of interested. I have like 545MB free with hardly anything open, is that okay?
564mb free when idle most of the time which is more than enough.
i got about 560MB free. i think its OK..
you can try removing services that are not being used or needed.
837mb (LightningROM 1.5)

not possible thats the amount of RAM available after the Android System usage. Everyone has that. Using a system tool such as Android assistant to find the actual free RAM after all the background services , etc
unless i am wrong and lightening ROM is a miracle

610-615MB free, could get more but there is some programs that is running when in idle, VillainROM 1.4 "LITE"
347 MB free on stock KE5
About 540 RAM available. Got a problem with my browser though, it isn't RAM-related though. Something wrong with the browser in VillainROM 1.4
I can't multitask. Well I can only multitask with a few and that are:
Standard music player
Whatsapp
Hotmail
But with other apps I can't like with the standard webbrowser.
How can I make multitask possible?

Hello, jan2426
Are you tried kinds of multitask apk already ?
For example Smart Task Switcher or Task Switcher or MultiTask Manager or ...
Maybe you can multitask to using more handiness.
However, You have to keep "Free ram space" in mind. Because our device doesn't have enough capacity of ram
So If you open alot of apk, device to be slow and to be unstable and get freeze or be restart sometimes.
Anyway, be careful with multitask

Thanks for your reply.
Although it was not totally what I was searching for.
But I also guess there will be no app for it, its just in the custom rom.
The only thing what I actually want is that he doesn't close the standard browser (shouldn't take that much RAM I guess, of course depends on how many tabs you have open).
This should be more a request for the newer version of the custom ROM in place from a question.

This hurts a bit in my heart though, especially for the big x10's.
I will need to learn to life with.
It isn't a big deal although it would be a bit better if I could multitask.
Atleast still thanks for your response, I know now atleast where I deal with.

forgive this newbie stupidity...
i really need to ask concerning some issues...
does this phone really have 512MB of RAM?
i checked in running application between used and free it come up only about 300's MB of RAM...
and secondly...i got an issue concerning sms...when the phone was on for several hours and i did multitasking this phone sms became lag and i can't do anything, typing, opening or else and when this happen the software will always tell me to "force close" or "wait"...if i click wait the lag continued...and then ask me again the same: "force close" or "wait"...so i click force close...
the only way to stop the lag is turn it off and then on again...
is there anybody got the same issue as i am?

Here we go again.... this has been answered a zillion times. The Android OS uses a part of the ram in order to run. Thus you get 300 total RAM, because the other 200 is reserved from the system.

okay...i'll try the app...thx,bos... anyway...ane dari bogor,gan... hehehehe...thx yak...
Another matter discussed a zillion times... You DONT need a task manager in 2.3.x... Instead its worse having one... The running applications list may be full of apps you havent been using or dont want. But they arent consuming your "real" RAM. Apps are there running in the background for a reason. Maybe the OS has some unfinished business with those apps so it has stored them in the RAM, without them actually using any resources from your phone. When it has done what is needed, the OS closes those apps. By using a task manager you force close an app that has been queued to be shut down at a specific moment, thus forcing the phone to actually recall the application and redo the whole procedure from scratch.
The laggy issues you are having are possibly due to some issues with the messaging app. I reccomend you backup your data and re-install the official FW.
