Why my XPS total of available ram just 63X mb?
where is the another 300 mb ram?
This is allocated by the system and will be released dynamically as needed. Don't mess with RAM management, you'll only make it worse.
Even the latest mobiles now use only 1GB RAM in spite of quadcore CPU's... and all of them somehow allocating certain RAM for internal mobile system... what I'm trying to say is, it is normal...

After the whole issue with Venue Pros have only 256MB instead of quoted 512MB, can we have a confirmation one way or another for the Venue?

Its 512MB.
It is 512MB
but 200MB or so are freely available I think.
Use Elixir, you will see the stock total is 402.1MB, and I get 150-180MB available as average.
yea!!!it is 512MB!!
venue ram
Full capacity all the 512MB.
But that is actually assigned capacity is 402MB,
Applications due to the use of the average level of available RAM is about 150 ~ 200MB.
I think the ROM is 1GB and RAM 512.
512mb yiup

What do you exactly mean by "assigned capacity"?
I have been so busy catching up with all the amazing stuff Da_G has been pumping out (thanks!) that I didn't even take a look at this until now. I am showing that we only have 733MB of avaliable RAM. That is a far cry from 1024MB.
I am seeing 733MB w/ both Android System Info and with the built-in Task Manager.
Does anyone know if we indeed have 1024MB of RAM and... if it is just assigned else where?
Yes we have 1GB every phone has RAM missing because the system is holding it.
I remember one time the OS didn't support that much not sure if that's the case now but the phone has 1GB to my knowledge and.what I've read
sent from AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note Dual Core 1.83 GHz
Just like memory... Do we really have 16gb? Its never what they say... All marketing!
Sent from my SGH-I717M
I have also read that is has 1GB everywhere, but missing 291MB seems like an awful lot.
I beleive my Atrix showed 897MB. I just seems like an awful lot 'mssing' w/ the Note.

I am with you on that! Makes me
I noticed the same, it's showing short but using the same app(system tuner pro) on my G2 it showed the correct 512mb.
It's not false marketing; it's fact. There is 1GB of RAM in the phone. I'm pretty sure the rest of the RAM is used by the GPU. My GS2 has the same thing, shows about 800MB of RAM available to apps.
What does it matter? I usually have 3-500MB of free RAM. Have you ever managed to fill the RAM with processes? Do you know anyone who has? Android clears old apps from memory even when there is enough free so I have never even come close to filling my RAM.
Graphics memory
As with any computer your phone has a gpu which needs graphics memory and because the gpu is integrated (SOC) it takes its memory off the top. This can be seen with any computer you have with integrated graphics it will section off some memory for your gpu.
As for the flash memory space many issues can take it down such as the file system, operating system, it just depends but trust me before the phone was turned on and android installed it had 16gb of memory and 1gb of ram
I'm about 100% CPU and GPU can't share ram as they do completely different tasks. They could have just added the cram and the ram to get 1GB though... But otherwise, the missing ram is from system tasks and the OS.

Do we have a reference or any proof of this?
And to the post directly above this, any computer that does not have a dedicated graphics card uses shared system memory, just like our phones. 733MB is just quite a bit away from 1024MB.
they can and do use the same memory because they are the same soc aka system on chip. all this is integrated.
So if you built a PC yourself and loaded it with 2gig RAM and booted into windows it would have 2 gig FREE memory?

I am not talking about FREE. I am talking about the system as a whole. Do we really have 1GB of RAM? Where it is being used I am not so concerned about at this point, but it may help us figure out if we do indeed have 1GB (Where is the remaing 291MB assigned).
The missing 291 is being used by android..to load the launcher Widgets and everything else in the background.

i have international version of note.its same way on this one.the missing ram is held by system tasks.as for 16gb storage memory.if you wipe all area on usb storage .u will have 16gb but not a working phone.another thing about free ram.dont use task manager to stop apps.all it does is make the phone lag.leave everything running.

You have 300-500 MB FREE ram? My note is bone stock and I'm running at 400/700 MB RAM (meaning 300 MB free). This is also when I "Clear memory" too. Something wrong with my apps?

I have 700 free. With just 2 home screens 2 Widgets and a few apps and live wallpaper.

Two dozen open apps on mine right now, and it shows 283 MB used, 302 MB free.
On my AT&T gs2 I consistantly show 830 to 850 MB free. On my note I only see a lil over 700. How can this have less ram than my gs2? I have over 80 app on my gs2 and less than half that on my note!!!

can anyone please tell me why my phone is showing just 349 mb's of total ram instead of 512 ram, while my 7 surround shows 475 instead of 512.
475 is ok but 349 in my titan is not considerable.
Where do you see your ram? Anyway if is a program it could be 2 things or its showing the memory not on use or it takes off the memory reserved for the GPU but the Titan has 512 ram sure

Actually i am using phone info it is showing that total memory is 349 mb and available memory is 193 mb. I used the other programs from marketplace but the same result.
I don't see why this would be an issue even?
I actually want to know that is there any issue with my phone or it is same amount of ram with all the titans.Please check in your phones.

Mine is 352MB. Looks like you are short changed
J/K. It's all the same.
On the other hand, my Galaxy S2 has 1GB of ram (800+ MB reported) and running dual core 1.2 GHz CPU. And yet, it still managed to be slower/slugish than my Titan running 1.5Ghz single core and 349MB of RAM.
I checked that, you have that ram 349mb because 150 Mb of ram are reserved for the graphic GPU, like in the integrated GPU of laptops, you have 512MB of ram but the system only sees the part that is not reserved for te graphics

Thanks for your replies,now i am able to understand the concept of ram usage.

I am looking for a ROM that makes all the 512 MB RAM available in my SGS+. I think there are since I've seen one with 400 MB RAM available. I am still new to this forum, so I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post. Thanks in advance.

I don't think, it's possible to have all 512Mb in use for your purposes. 512Mb is a summary capacity of RAM chips of your phone and part of that amount of RAM reserved for kernel needs(services,drivers, etc). From my experience:400Mb of availible RAM good enough cpacity for devices with 512Mb. There are 512Mb devices with smaller amount of availible RAM.
Sorry for my bad English.
I was on miui8, where i used to get 1.3 to 1.7 Gb of ram free on my redmi note 4 mido 3gb ram phone. But on every los14 based rom i get only 700 to 900 mb ram free. Does anyone knoe how can i get more free ram on custom roms?? Is there any app or tweak which can free ram, please tell.

Why do you think more free RAM improves anything?
Free ram = wasted ram.

Exactly the same question I was going to ask. Forget free RAM. Forget RAM management apps. Forget closing apps to free up more RAM. Linux memory management is already quite efficient. Your utilities are not going to improve it (either at all, or by any significant amount).
That's it. Free RAM is unused RAM. It's useless until it is used... Any device has inbuilt memory management that cares about the memory needs of running processes. If your device shows free RAM of 1GB all the time than your device has 1GB more RAM than it needs.
Why you want more free ram? You bought a phone with 3GBs of ram just to use half of it, why?
They think its windows, when you dont have free ram anymore it will lags or out of memory lol...
