That is what is called zram.
I'm not sure if its turned on, on any of the custom roms/kernels
The dsc kernel is capable of it, but it needs to compiled, turned on, and activated inside a version of Android that supports it.

Internal flash wony help making fone fast
Sent from my Dell Streak using xda premium

you cant do much since the ram is embedded into the motherboard..

You can try _nop_s kernel, and enable swap using swapper, but to be honest, there is plenty enough ram.
A better way to manage ram from the off, would be to use something similar to Autostarts and manage After Startup items, many can be disabled, you will need a rooted phone, this can save significant ram from when you start your phone.

For normal use the ram is ok
But for some good games this fone prooves to b laggy

Sure, quite possibly, its an old os. My streak is dead, I have a N7105 now. If there were the drivers and Jelly Bean was a reality, you would have a lag free life, I am sure.

Yes....
All we can do is to wait for ics or jb:what:

Yup,... I would agree with you... I'm also still waiting for a stable fully functional ICS or JB ROM for my DS5. Still loving my DS5, not willing to change yet, still using it on daily basis.
I saw on the Development Forum Section, there are a few kinda ICS ROMs, but it's label as pre-alpha, beta, etc...with some notes on certain functions not work or partial works or works on some DS5.
I would continue reading and understanding what going on, plus testing other stable ROMs listed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5/ROMs , before trying out those new ROMs in the Development Section I guess, just to be on the safe side.

one ics rom is fully functional except the camera
so if you dont need camera you can go for it
i personally have tried it..... no camera but great rom

[Q] Increase Ram?

Hello,
I am curious, I have looked around but haven't really found any good or helpful information in regards to this. Although the Xperia X10 has 384mb of system ram. If I move a bunch of apps using Link2sd and free up so much space, is there anyway to increase the 384mb limit, say add another 128mb to make it 512mb thus enhancing the device?
or am i out of town on this one?
buddy our first focus should be to atleast use full 384 mb...
however we are right now only using just 256 mb of the ram.....
if you really want to use more, flash data2sd.zip through xrecovery. but, know that it is slower :S just try using a different ROM, Jerpelea's cm7 is very fast and snappy, a bit buggy for now, but try some other ones, you might find one you like

Wait what?
Data2sd makes your phone slower?!?!

Need camera hack and gps fix!

This may be a dev forum question, so forgive me if it is, but I see plenty of mod posts here
I need the popular camera hack that allows me to use cam even at super low battery life, as elk as a gps fix.
I recently had to dump toxic crazy 8, wonderful rom, but my camera stopped working and my pc wouldn't acknowledge my phone. Insanely long story short I figured it out and odin'd back to stock root. I've resolved to just tweak stock 2.2
So any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Why not find a rom with a hacked. apk? And move it to system-> app. How about a new kernel? I assume you are rocking a stock kernel being stock rooted. Also there are flashable zips floating around too for 2.2. I won't link it for you do to not being within 700 miles of my pc.

Actually I'm rocking the bali x kernel big fan of that battery life.
Still looking for linked apks. I'm not really looking to flash a new rom until D9 comes out, for now I'm happy with my stock root with launcher pro and a couple other toys. Just looking for that sweet gps and cam fix

Let my phone rest in peace

Is there any ROM that allows the phone to be turned off while charging?
Currently using Mik's 6.5.8.
Don't understand while they haven't implemented this option.
Yes, alot of froyo roms ie...devoid froyo final,mgatron,void forever (I think) have they battery charging thing, I don't know of the technical reason for it not being on cm7, haven't really cared to much to find out but I guess there was a poll of users who opted it out for cm7
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
All roms based on official lg firmware have this feature.
That's megatron, just search for ciaox's repository of mods or something to that extent..I want to say its under the android development stickies in our device forum...its a chronological list of roms by versions,tutorials and different kernel versions
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
I've never used official anything, once I rooted I stuck with custom roms and unofficial ports...back in the day,flashing radio's on cupcake/donut was easy, radio's are today's basebands, I've stuck to old baseband since I've had this phone

Oh well, I guess I have to do some lobbying to the CM folks.
Obviously, the phone must have the ability to stay ON while being charged. But there are also times when it makes sense to turn off the phone.
Just imagine the amount of energy saved if all the phones are powered off for 8 hours a day!
let it charge in recovery, it's almost as good as the froyo roms charging mode. pretty fast, too.
I dont wanna cr8 new thread thats why i posted in this thread..i m not able to charge...yesterday at nite it wan 32 & today mornin same i came frn skool but still same.
I hve searched but cant find any answer..! so guyz plz help.. :'(
I hve to go to camp tummorow..so help me asap..

Anyone can transplant miui v5 for our x10?

We can see MIUI V5 for 20 devices will be released recently.
We also have scritch007's cm10 for x10,and even HD2 and Defy will get miui v5.
I like miui v5,so is their any developers will make miui v5 rom for x10i
Sorry for bad English,Thanks!
Thumbs up
Yeah, it would be awesome. :good:
Miui v5 is really slow on 512 mb ram phones... I can't imagine what it is going to be liike on the x10

Please don't joke. Take a look at RAM usage in attachment. X10 would never run this os smooth

It is problem with optimization on your phone. If I use CM on Xperia S sometimes get 500Mb used And on same CM on X10 used for example 180Mb
Some times somebody say, that we never get ICS, and now?
I think you're wrong, and no I'm not joking.
If SD swap was used, ram problem might be a bit better
I'M BATMAN
I sold my x10 on January so I don't know how the ics works on this phone right now, but it is probably lagging as hell. Of course some useless apps could be removed and it would make the ROM faster but over 300mb of ram is still too less. It could boot up but You weren't able to use it everyday anyway.

What is the most efficient CM ROM

Was wondering which of the CM ROMs is most efficient as far as memory and battery usage. Froyo, Gingerbread, or Jelly Bean?
I prefer jellybean. For jellybean use cyanaosp with rather the stock kernel or Mackay kernel. V6 supercharger
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda app-developers app
I decided to go with the ROMs from Fisherman. If I can every get Odin to detect my phone in download mode. But yea, I decided an actual phone ROM would be the best option instead of using ICS or Jb. There is less to maintain and I don't have to worry about bugs like bt and battery life.
Well you have to look at it this way. Our phone never even got gingerbread for it to run jellybean is a miracle bit it also consumes some ram while jellybean is awesome froyo was the last update our phone ever got

I would have to agree with you. I will only use this phone for work. So strictly no 3rd party apps other than skype. Not even a custom launcher. I think I shouldn't worry about memory consumption. Just rely on the awesome custom ROMs that the devs optimize.
I use the phone as a test subject now its my little brothers media player toy. You just gotta see what works best for you
