Hi,
What a pain this Gs3 is, if I'm playing for example Gta3 and go into the browser for a quick surf once I go back to the game the game has to reload all again, did not happen with Gs2. This is the same with other applications..

I think it runs low on RAM and puts it in the cashe, that is y it reloads again. Hope this helps.

What a pain this is, but when I look at free ram available I have plenty of available ram.

In the developer settings of the s3 you can limit the number of tasks...

I've seen some app also have to reload again after home button is pressed.
I hope Samsung will sort this issue out as soon as possible!

New firmware / samsung version is RAM killer
I had this same issue after spending a grip of hours on the phone with the tech, we came up with either the new Samsung version/firmware update is causing the phone to eat up RAM like crazy or the EXTsdcard readers are failing. i have sent back 3 phones to Samsung and after everything a factory reset "KIND OF" did it.
HOWEVER
DO NOT update Samsung Software
DO NOT update Firmware
----------------------------------------------------
I'm not sure which one is causing the issue but i found less RAM being eaten up
i.e. i'm at about 800-900MB RAM rather then 1.3 - 1.4 GB RAM....
and thats all system processes, just did a fresh factory reset.
I hope this thread can be made sticky and get some attention from the dev's.
i have an unrooted Sprint gs3 and am hoping to find a solution that doesnt involve root
I am well aware of the developer options in the settings menu and have utilized all that i thought would help. if you find anything please repost
same problem with mu s3

You could whitelist specific apps with JKay framework to avoid them being closed.
Works fine with the dialer and contracts as well...
|| Typed with my S4 Octa-Beast or my Note 10.1 ||
Soooo.
Samsung is trying to bring the s3's compatible with the s4 and all these new features = Death to your ram.
By the end I sent my device back had them ship me one directly and DID NOT accept the system update. Phones back to normal and all is well... except for that damn pesky system update notice but hey f it I can deal until they discover and fix it

No, it's impossible.
You can't, and it would probably be cheaper to buy a new phone anyways

I'd say wait till intel gets more into it lol. We might see custom phone builders. That, might actually be not too far off.
The short answer is you wouldn't want to attempt it
Impossible
Not even worth the risk of tearing your phone apart.
If the new processor is pin-to-pin compatible to the one in your phone and you have the proper gear to make the change, everything can be possible in theory!

It is possible if the processors are pin-compatible (eg. the same family,same model scrapped from another pcb, different versions, unlocked versions etc...) but you'll need to reinstall the firmware/bootloader/system configurations... to run it
Hi guys. According to task manager i have 780 mb of max ram and i am using like 500 to 600 usually. Is this normal? Rom is omega v4

220 MB are either used by the system or by the GPU. Don't worry too much about it

Like previously said, its probably reserved for the gpu. One reason why I decided against the world version and pre ordered the us

I like how every person needs to reassure themselves about their 2 gigs because they feel like they're missing out otherwise.

Judging by every Android phone I've ever seen, you will only have 10-20% of free RAM on the 2GB variant too. Android is designed to use all of the available RAM, so please stop associating free RAM to speed.

rarely is there any substantial amount of un used ram, but the more ram you have the more that can be allocated to individual processes and multi tasking. Personally id rather have it and not "need" it, than need it and not have it.

Funny cause I was thinking the inverse, seems like many are under playing the role Ram has in the continuous operation of processes and multi tasking. As this software evolves and applications become more advanced, the need for more resources is going to be in demand. spin it however you like, but more ram is a plus and will make a difference... How much, we don't know... I'll tell you when I get mine. To each their own though, the world version is still a sexy beast, I just think double the Ram will net more performance gains than double the cores... Plus lte downstream is pretty phenomenal, even though I get throttled... Damn you att

Hi, I'm probably going to buy a galaxy s2 but I want to know some things about the telephone before..
1)how is the battery life of the s2? whit my nexus s i can get 4 hours of screen on, is the s2 better?
2)how do you update the firmware version? Does the s2 receive the OTA like the Nexus telephones?
3) will it be updated to the latest android version jelly Bean?
And the last thing.. How is it compared to a galaxy nexus?
Inviato dal mio Nexus S con Tapatalk 2
1:yes2:yes 3:maybe
Inviato dal mio GT-I9100 con Tapatalk 2
How many hours of screen on can u get with the s2?
And has it got any known bug/defect (an example is the breakable power button of the nexus s)?
The only thing that doesn't convince me of this smartphone is the modding.. I think that it could be a little bit difficult coming from a pure Google device..
Inviato dal mio Nexus S con Tapatalk 2
1) yes
2) that depends on your carrier but yes
3) samsung said the tests of JB on S2 were succesful....
i think S2 is better because it has an 8mp camera instead of 5mp and the biggest advantage in my opinion is that it has a slot for mini sd card
hi
was wandering if anyone was having this issue,
for some reason now and again the touch screen stops responding no message shows on screen but to resolve i have to turn screen off n on and it works again, was hapoening on ee rom and custom rom
just wandering if its just me or a common issue
Sent from my GT-I9305 using Tapatalk 2
Have you had this issue from day 1?
My lock screen sometimes doesn't recognize my touch when I try to enter my unlock pattern.
I have to release and try again, I was thinking it was just me but could be an issue?
Aside from the lock screen everything else works ok.
Is it only certain parts of the screen or the whole thing? maybe take the phone back to the shop where you got it and get an exchange?
hmm yh the whole screen doesnt respond although it hasnt happened today tho but its wierd seems like a softwaee issue might try and flash a different rom and see how it is
Sent from my GT-I9305 using Tapatalk 2
From my experience, it's not the touchscreen but something hogs your phone CPU cycles for a brief moment. Have you tried going to stock and not installing any apps?
I similar issue on GS2 where whole phone freezes (although plays music in the background) and I thought it was touch for a very long time until I realized it was some ****ty app I installed (some tamagochi app I think)
I had this aswell found out it was when I loggers back onto my phone and it checked what as I had running .
I'm a big multi tasKer
try holding your center key and close any UN used apps
yh i agree, will try that next time plus monitoring apps in better battery stats

Hmmm i havent noticed anything like that... are you on stock? I was thinking it may b a software setup issue, As there are many things that can happen when you start modding your phone. But I have quite a few mods and I have not had this issue, I have Skype always on Tango, Viber, Whats App,Facebook, Ms Exchange Services, I have 6 Widgets in total spread out in 4 homescreen. 4 of those widgets Auto update. So I have quite abit going on in this little thing
does seem like a software issue happened again but 5 mins later was showing touches on screen wierd

Not had any issue with my screen and I am running quite a lot on my phone so if it happens with stock I would start to remove apps one by one or do a wipe and add them back one by one. Could be a hardware issue though.

What is it with you guys posting non dev stuff in the dev forum? thread moved to general
I've decided top but a new smartphone but I can decide between Samsung galaxy s3 or the Google nexus 4 ... Please help new decide
Thanks
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2
Owned a nexus 4. It is honestly the best choice. It has better specifications and better dev support. But isf you are a heavy user and you play games and diqnliad tons of music, go for tye s3 because ofbthe removable battery with extended battery capablities and the mirco sd slot
Sent from that one guy with the cool phone
I'd allways take a google phone first, but (IMO) the Nexus4 sucks, so I would choose the s3
Also, if you like the pure android interface, you can allways flash the CM 10.1
regards - Cartman
i would defently go for S3
nexus 4 is boring it is so bareboned with software
and also the on screen buttons take the space away
Samsung Galaxy S3 is amazing phone, you can always flash a custom ROM which will make your phone to work as fast as Nexus 4!
And yes, Touchwiz ROM is quite slow, for example to open contacts it's takes about 4-5 seconds, but if you will flash a custom ROM this problem will gone!
Anyone else?
Thanks for the replies guys

Not really. To have off screen buttons they'd have to have made the screen smaller. If the s3 went for on screen buttons, the screen could have been longer but it would have been as useless as not being an extended screen. Buttons on screen or off screen leave the same amount of screen left over only the latter is easier

yeah but nexus 4 left a lot of space down there so the screen feels smaller than s3's
True but we dont know what's under there
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
So what's your decision guys ? S3 or nexus 4?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2
I wouldn't chose the n4 over the s3. I like things many phones dont offer such as sdcard slot and removable battery. On paper the n4 is better but its less practical for me and dull looking. I wouldn't ever buy a 1 year old phone either....
So if I was in the market today id probably go insane and put up with what I had and see what next year brings

about S3 and N4, IMHO the main different is ram.. S3 1gb (800mb) Vs N4 2Gb (1,3gb CMIIW).
whether the difference in the amount of ram has a big influence on System android? especially for Jelly Bean OS 4.1.x - 4.2.x - 4.3.
