Total ram? - E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys. I wonder myself just about the total RAM memory. Is this normal or something is wrong here? I thought the Moto E 2015 has 1Gb

yes it is normal, on every android device some of it's ram is unusable for user (for example part of this ram is used for graphic because it dosen't have it's own memory as I remember)

Thx

how much memory?

can the 3d hold for roms? cause i downloaded 2 stock roms and there both nearly 400mb and i remember on the og evo that was a ton! you had to partition to use a rom like that.
So how much can the 3vo take exactly?
I believe it has 4GB RAM and 1GB ROM
Not quite.
Titanium backup tells me there's 825 MB available for system ROM. I'm assuming that's the space available for the (Duh) ROM.
Could be wrong though.

4GB Nand memory. We have 1GB allocated for our use.
The other 3GB is allocated for system resources and other things.
Like my help? Thank me

[Q] Actual hardware configuration and what we see in real

Hello anybody who can help me and other people understanding what we see in applications which show memory info.
I want to understand why "meminfo" shows total RAM 335Mb and Internal phone storage: 420Mb (it is on my phone).
Official info from http://developer.sonyericsson.com/wportal/devworld/phones/phone-overview/xperia-mini-pro?cc=gb&lc=en says it should be the next:
- Internal phone storage: up to 320 MB
- RAM: 512MB !!!
One of my thoughts is that the part of memory is used by video-card
Please explain me why it happens
Some is dedicated to the graphic and some more is reserved from the system. The total is 512, don't worry.

Think of the Android Operating System as a Virtual Machine on your phone. It needs some RAM in order to work.

Can you modify the values besides a VM usage ram ?
No. What you need in order to have more "system memory" which actually is part of the RAM itself is swap. Swap creates a partition on your sd card which then is used by the system to store temporary data. The thing is that its a double edged knife. NAND is 100 times faster than your typical SD card, so loading apps and/or part of the system on your swap partition might end up in a slower overall phone. But we wont have such a problem with our devices, because the system itself doesnt take all that much storage itself.
The only device so far that i know, which had a problem with storage was the Desire Z i own, when you wanted to flash a custom sense 3.0 rom. Then it needed different partitioning in order for the Sense 3.0 to fit into the device.(the device isnt a sense 3.0 device by default).
If you have many apps that you cant seem to fit in the 320mb of free memory, i recommend you install an app2sd application.

[Q] Swap memory management

Hi ,
I've been searching all over xda for an app or a script that could give more control over a swap file present in the SD card .By more control ....I mean ...is it possible to select which apps ram usage can be swapped to the file and is it possible to prevent ram usage of some apps from being swapped ? The reason is that after 1 or two days the device becomes extremely laggy and have to restart and apps start freezing just with a swap file of size 50 mb.
I use an LG L3 running on large rev 2 with SD merge .
For the swap file I use Ram expander .
Thanks in advance

Less internal storage issue

I have a Kenzo, 16GB + 2GB RAM variant.
While using ES File Explorer, it showed that I have a total of 10.26 GB internal memory, so where did the remaining 5-6 GB went ?
Maybe this is a noob question but I am worried about this

It's occupied by MIUI 8 operating system.. So the user available space is only 10.26gb.

I have installed CM14.1 + Radon 3.0.1 with clean flash
Will this issue still persist ?
You won't see a full 16GB for your use, if that's what you're thinking. Some has to be for the OS. I think with CM14, you end up with a maybe 11-12GB free, but your OS and other apps have to take up some space.
Simple solution, buy a SD card and use it as a internal storage, but be aware that the (un)official CM 14.1 by TheStrix has currently a bug with this feature

Roeh ram expander

Hey guys,
I have a rooted J320F and to get more RAM, i used the ROEHSOFT RAM EXPANDER and it worked a day.
After restarting my phone, the app says: device or sd busy .
This error pops up not all the time. For example: Now i can start the app and activate the Swap but the system dont use VRAM. I have 1,5Gb free from 1,5gb.

The RAM Expander uses a swap file to be used as a ram, it is a virtual memory.
Virtual memories are slower than physical ones.
Your phone will become slower than ever before.
The app is for those phones that have very low ram, near to 512 MB
I am saying this from my own experience.
