Hi I bought a new s3 with 4.3 rooted already a while ago and I noticed there are some bugs one of them that the home app "touch wiz" is closed or restarted when I open any other app as if it is closed due to the lack of ram or something, really annoying actually it takes some time to restart.
also I don't wanna open a new thread for that but I find that always like 700+ mg of the 830 mg available even after I have closed all the recently oppened apps and pressed the "release memory" ..
Any help please I feel very disappointed I just bought it :'(

So that's normal with touch wiz not just me?
And what about the ram issue? Does it really consume all that ram?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Free mobile app
Yes dude. If you exit an app it takes a few seconds to load right? And yes it does consume a lot of ram because of all the bloatware touchwiz have. Then i heard that no more 4.4 update for the S3 because samsung said the ram cant handle it because of the new bloatcrap their going to add. That is when i snapped! No more touchwiz for me. You can try using a custom rom so much better in everyway. I have been using Omnirom now and no problems so far. Hope this helps dude.

Wooah I was just reading that 1gb news when I got the notification
I was really looking for a custom rom and thought about omni.. so how're the ram and consumption?

I got about 300mb free ram and the battery life is great in omnirom. But feel free to try other custom roms out. Its a lot of fun.

No! it has a RAM script included with the ROM.
Why don't you read about things instead of posting questions?

Speaks volumes about RAM issues on this phone when a bit of free RAM makes you think its broken.
Sent from a phone with an app.
I think you're one of most lucky Ace user...you've only 50mb of used ram in normal condition. What's wrong with your mobile? Stay calm and enjoy.
I got my pebble blue galaxy s3 few days ago and I am on stock rom which is fast and smooth.I disable the home screen lag by disabling svoice.Galaxy s3 is the best phone right now and I like it a lot.
But wondering if I should root it and put a custom rom to use titanium backup and take advantage of rooted rom and other stuff.
So please recommend me a custom rom which can make s3 better and faster.

I rooted my phone on the same day
I wasn't able to stand it more than 5 hours without rooting the s3.
Before i had it in my hands i was decided not to root it in the first month to see
if the hardware isn't faulty. But then it came different very quickly :laugh:
Btw.. i have the pebble blue version too.. which isn't very blue in my opinion
If your planning on using a sdcard, I think roms based on cm9 are a bit finiky with them working with exfat. I'm using Foxhound rom. It's got great features and my 64gb exfat sd works great.

Whats best rom post you sir are number ten thousand and 3 and that's why best rom posts are banned repetitive repetitive repetitive asking the same question day after day .
Consensus of opinion by the way on previous SG models from forum member is simple if you have to ask then stick with stock .

You shouldn't have to disable S Voice. Go into your settings - developer options - windows animations scale and transition animation scale and turn them to 0.5 or off. That will help volumes.
Try all of them out & find out which is best for you. None of us can answer that question because what is best for us, might not be best for you. Best thing about flashing is that you learn so much in the process.
omega is quiet good and fast, in aroma i staller i choosed no blootware version and now i have stable and fast custom rom. I use 5.1 version

Hi !
I got my Razr maxx on wednesday. I immediatly install MIUI 2.11.30 but I've a little problem. I have only 400mo of free ram after killing apps.
Is the problem only related to MIUI Rom ?
I love MIUI but if I only have 400mo ram I don't think it's a good choice
Thanks for the help.
(I'm fench, sorry)
400mb?
If so that's plenty.

He's serious. I get 250-300 free after i reboot and then it drops to 250-180 (stock ics). I think anything above 200-250 is great. Your lags have nothing to do with the memory. By the way try not to kill apps, the apps are supposed to be running with android and killing them consumes more battery.
Ok so thank you all ^^

Yea if have have 150 free you're in good shape. Above 200mb is plenty. Lack of ram is not the only thing that can make your phone laggy/choppy.

However, Android/Linux uses RAM far differently than Windows does (atleast older windows like XP). After Android is done running a program/service/process it saves that process in the unused space in the RAM. That way they don't need to be started from scratch should that process be run again. Storing does use up any more battery power than the RAM needs while empty, the cached apps can easily be purged at will (taking so little time that it's effectively instantaneous), and will definitely save time and battery if that process is run again. The adage to remember here is "Free RAM is wasted RAM".

Hi guys. HTC One user here, however my sister has an S3 but the battery drains on it REALLY quickly. Like it dropped 8% in the 5-10 mins I was messing about with it.
It was running on out-the-box rom and kernel, so I flashed through Odin, full wiped and installed Omega ROM hoping it was just a ROM issue... however it still seems to be draining really ****ing fast.
Does anyone have any other suggestions before I go ahead and order a new battery (just in case it's not that?!)
Cheers guys

(1) Post questions in Q&A section
(2) Are you rooted? If so try BetterBatteryStats (BBS) to isolate the aspect of the phone draining the battery. After a few days running BBS post screenshots if you need help.
Wakelock detector same thing as battery stats only it's free.
Also if you have root you can use greenify, startup manager (free), change kernel or rom (or both if rom supports other kernels).

There are times where my phone will shut off after lagging badly from a ROM I have is it because the ROM is only unofficial or what?

i have not experienced this, but i've seen a few people report that they find it necessary to bring their phones back to complete stock and re-root from time to time to get rid of lag.
there's also the standard disclaimers about dirty flashing.
don't know if it will work for you, but it may be worth a try.
