[XPU] Help needed regarding low RAM issue in Stock ICS (.54) - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Currently I am using b.1.54 stock ICS plus Sliding XU kernel plus JDWalker's modified build.prop. Performance is OK for me but the only problem that I am facing is low free RAM (around 80-90 MB).
Any help?

I think it's normal... you can only get 150 mb free RAM (see screenshots) but you could also try .100 stock ICS it is faster than previous ones.....

Fact is that I have removed Gapps as well to have some more RAM but still below 100 doesn't look good.

Bro, RAM is hardware. If you mean to free up RAM, there are programs in the Market like Ram Booster etc, but they are not neaded, free RAM is wasted RAM in Android.
Sony has poor ram management. I hope 4.1 in december will fix it.

Yup I just noticed this
My pa's a110 has 307mb ram used and about 167mb free
Thats strange
512mb physical ram
And ram used by system is only about 40mb
How is this possible!??
And gpu alone cant make a difference of 90mb ram
There are several other things but what?

The theory is like Intel GMA graphic, it's shared the system RAM as their video memory, and also depend on different GPU
Like my sola, it got 512MB RAM, but system accessible only 387MB, so mean my Mali-400 take 125MB RAM as their video memory.
Is there a way to disable the GPU when not needed like when messaging, calling or keeping the phone on standby?? It will save much ram and battery

OMG
This question is basic
You can search and read ram management at google bro

just use advance task killer in the market for killing running apps from the background, to free some memory.

Reducing MALI 400 (dedicated video memory requires kernel recompilation, as I see nobody tried it.
The best memory tweak is v6 supercharger script by zepplinox(spelling?)

Need more than 250mb ram on xperia u...

frnds.. i want something(rom or kernel or anyting) that will give me 250mb ram(if 250 not possible then anything that will give me as much ram as possible)
But i also want the battery..
help me frndssss
don't think 250 is possible with ICS on 512MB.
some roms claim 200, like Zperience or Aroma? but i haven't tried can't confirm. i think anything over 100mb free after finishing boot is good.
the way Android uses RAM though this is maybe misleading, free RAM by itself isn't really useful, but i know what you mean..

Why you need so much free ram?
Sent from my MT27i using xda app-developers app
Try Terra Rom or stock rom with all crap deleted , free Rom doesn't mean that phone will be faster.
Sent from my ST25i using xda premium
actually i just noticed on a brand new phone with sony official .54 ics installed, nothing removed:
200mb free RAM!
on first boot was 210mb, now is around 185mb on 3rd boot,
weird because i know after setting up apps and accounts etc, AND using Speedy Droid to remove lots of sony stuff, she had only about 50MB free, after a fresh boot. not sure why i have so much more now.
Having free ram is not achievement dude and neither it reflect your phone is fast, Epic

i know.
this phone is slow if you run many complex apps because 512MB is not enough for ICS (google target was 1GB).
free RAM after startup is still a rough guide to how much memory the base ROM is using. do you have a better suggestion?
the comment about 200mb on stock was because many 3rd party roms seem to think they've acheived something when they show 200mb free. i found this is almost same as stock.
I was answering OPs question: no, probably no fully functional ROM gives 250MB free after startup, but the stock .54 can give 200 ish before you install, configure or run anything. then you'll find you have very little free and things tend to get laggy.
if OP posted more specficially about his problem maybe someone can help further..

You don't get it, do you? Having free ram is not achievement and doesn't reflect how fast is your mobile, get your basics right

Free ram is wasted ram when it could be used to cache apps for faster loading,except when it drops to 0 and apps keep restarting.

RAM usage depends on the firmware and ROM. Lower Android versions naturally use less RAM.
Which ROM is the lightest on RAM usage? No fancy features needed, just NO LAG

Cool. What about the newer ROMs?
I have tried many roms for our phone...
MIUI is great interface, but it slows down the phone (at least the rom I tested), so I changed to a 2.3.7 more stable rom.
I wonder if 4.4 will work ok on this phone... someone tried any 4.4 rom?

Thanks for the info Avinash, which rom are you using? Is that rom works for both Locked/Unlocked devices?
I'm asking it, because my bootloader is locked...
BR!

if u want the real power use LX cm10.2 (a bit stabler than 11) it has the best ram management with mostly 150-180 free mb ON normal usage (no task killers just doing nothing ) its so damn smooth GB will newer reach. its the 1st time my friend can play dead trigger lagless on his ARC as he told me (hes a gamer im not) sometimes i just look on ram usage from interest and even even have 200mb free even if i not closed any app (like said i just use the rom not messig around with silly tweaks, only thing is i locked my keyboard to ram & use grennify )

[Q] How much free ram you got after startup?

Guys,I want to know how much free ram this phone have with non-branded software.
I have D620r branded on Vodafone,and i always have small amount of free ram..
It have 150-190mb free ram always(max free is 190mb),and used ram is 744mb at the moment.
I think this phone should have more free ram.
One time i had 40mb free ram and 820mb used ram.
I had LG L80 with over 500mb free ram,and L70 with same amount of free ram(about 500+ mb free).
Can someone post results in this thread? (Screenshot from Task Manager)
Thanks in advance!
Best regards.,DeXteR!​
I have around 300 mb free

I guess you have swapped the lib files to fix camera?Do you have any exposure issues on video though or no?
I am using CyanogenMod 11 now... and yes, i swapped camera libs and works only on photos, video style overexposed.. use open camera, i think you can manage it somehow. But while recording exposure stay the same.. I uploaded libs on ROMs thread and Nikita gives more information from where everyone can find them :good:
i got only 380mb
