Remove all bloatware apps... Task killers and anti virus programs...
There is no need to clean RAM
Android manages it by itself...
And
Free RAM is RAM wasted.
what do you mean bloatware apps?

But when my phone stacks i need free ram! so free ram is not wasted ram!

You can use a memory management app like AutoKiller Memory Optimizer (your phone must be rooted). I use the Pro version in aggressive mode and it is great (40-60 MB before, 100-120 MB after). You can also use SystemCleanup (free) to remove system bloatware (app suggests what can be removed).
Hello.
See this thread: I think this will be helpful.

Lol... You seem new here... The more RAM your phone uses out of total... The more smooth it will be...
So free RAM is always wasted RAM
and to kill apps... Just swipe them after long prrssing home button...
Don't use app killer as they themselves hog up RAM

If I go into settings to check free ram, it reports roughly 140 MB free. Any widget that I use reports about 60 - 80 mb free. Why is there such a large difference? Which one is correct?

Same thing, but sometimes the app will have more free ram then it actually does have.
I'm wondering if the system RAM number ignores processes cached in the RAM. So perhaps, in a way, they are both correct.

In gingerbread, memory management is a bit better in how much is reclaimable. Just a random fact. To answer your question though, any task killer or widget is showing how much is purely FREE, meaning not being used by any process. The memory usage screen shows how much is free+how much is reclaimable in empty pages, old closed processes, etc.
Which ROM has the most available ram? I would really like to know because on CM10, I get like 80mb idle.

Just wondering why you want free ram? I remember reading somewhere that android runs better with most of the ram used and that theres really little reason to skimp on ram usage..
Just my opinion

I've read that too somewhere, however I've found that post to be incorrect. In fact, the less free RAM I have available, the slower my device gets and the music lags as well. I think that Android actually runs worse with less ram free.
Anyway, that isn't the point here. Back to OP. On slimbean, I can get between. 150 - 180 MB of RAM available. Total RAM is 392 on semaphore 2.0.7sv.

If you wanna keep a lot of free ram just go in to (system settings/developer options/) and then check (dont keep activities) it will free a lot of memory, but one thing I notice is when I open the browser and watch a video, when I go back to to the browser, it send me back to my homepage of the browser, so I dont know if that is gonna be a problem with you...

Hi, I have a Neo V which is supposed to have 512 mb (actually around 490 mb) of RAM, but now it has only 322 mb RAM (not free RAM, whole of it). Is something wrong with my phone or its common?
How can I fix it?
Android takes a portion of the devices phones to do its thing.
Don't worry, it's normal!
Sent from the little guy
So it means that android itself uses about 150 mb of ram and makes it disappear, and again uses another 200 mb of ram and leaves only 100 mb of for user?
I don't think so, cause one of my friends has sensation xe, and his phone had about 980 mb ram, but once, after he took out the battery, it decreased to about 780 mb.
I think there must be a better explanation

There is memory reserved for android core, camera, video recorder,
Sound devices, radios etc.
The rest is used by the other user and system apps.
You shouldn't be worried about less free RAM unless you experience lag.
If android is using your ram it is doing so to ensure better battery and performance and it automatically clears up your ram if you are doing something which needs it.

my Neo V (ics) has 340 mb.
You can try galaxian kernel i think it gives more free ram...

I'm using GB right now.
Your whole ram is 340 mb, or free ram?
Also how much can you overclock with that kernel?
Sent from my MT11i using Tapatalk 2
The RAM can not be overclocked, only the CPU can be or other hardware components can be overclocked.
The RAM is occupied only with software applications or services.
As adity wrote you should not worry about occupied RAM if your phone don't have lag.

I don't want to overclock ram, I just want to know where it goes.
Also I need more ram to play the new NFS. Cause it just keeps getting out when it loads more than 4 cars!!!

You can see what applications and services are running on your RAM if you go on:
Settings -> Apps -> Running (you will see the list of running apps) and you can see what processes are in cache by pressing on the bottom: 'Show Cached Processes'
Now, after what you saw all the processes you can chose what to be close as unnecessary processes.
First, I recommend to close unused widgets and create instead shortcuts to settings.

Just got my GS5 yesterday, and as soon as I got it I immediately took off all that T-Mobile and Samsung bloatware. But even after downloading clean master the RAM is always above 70%. Sometimes it's at 50-60%. But on my previous Gs4 I was able to have it below 40%. Anyone also have this issue? Or can I do something to have the RAM use less than 50%?

Do apps close due to RAM usage? If not which is most likely the answer then don't worry how much free ram you have . Let Android which effectively handles usage. Golden rule is unused ram is wasted RAM.

Do not worry about ram usage guys..In fact touchwiz is not this hog most make it to be. It has actually gotten better. This lag people complain of is not lag it's animations the way Samsung intended them to be. Some apps need more optimization in the way they function. Unused ram is wasted ram its like being rich and having money but not using it. Apps that sit in ram are NOT running nor consuming any CPU usage. Ram helps apps run and load quickly for daily task. These days its all about optimization. Touchwiz vs Aosp is a mute debate they are made to operate in the same fashion but diffrently. In short don't worry s5 has plenty ram and android knows what to do.

* then open your root explorer
*grant super user permission
*go to internal memory/system/
*change into r/w (rewritable)
step 3
*long press on build.prop
*then open with text editor
*paste that code at last of build.prop without space
step 4
REEBOOT YOUR DEVICE

Well keep looking. Not the first RAM question. Unused RAM is wasted RAM ;so don't worry about how much you have left. It's TouchWiz what you expect

Go here I explain a little..You want ram working for..Rather u have 70% ram used or 99% it will still function the same as apps in ram consime no cpu usage. Touchwiz is smartly placing common phone functions in ram for the user to have when needed. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733344
