Just out of interested. I have like 545MB free with hardly anything open, is that okay?
564mb free when idle most of the time which is more than enough.
i got about 560MB free. i think its OK..
you can try removing services that are not being used or needed.
837mb (LightningROM 1.5)

not possible thats the amount of RAM available after the Android System usage. Everyone has that. Using a system tool such as Android assistant to find the actual free RAM after all the background services , etc
unless i am wrong and lightening ROM is a miracle

610-615MB free, could get more but there is some programs that is running when in idle, VillainROM 1.4 "LITE"
347 MB free on stock KE5
About 540 RAM available. Got a problem with my browser though, it isn't RAM-related though. Something wrong with the browser in VillainROM 1.4
I just curious about ram usage on my x10 using feralabs rom for locked bootloader.
If I go to settings---applications---running services it says 168 used and around 20-25 free MB but as far as I know user available ram is 287 MB.
Also, go launcher ex shows around 240/287 MB used ram.
what else is using my ram? and why difference in settings and go launcher ram info?
Its normal mate... When I owned a xperia x10... Faced the same issue... But later came to know it was OK!

Install an app ZDbox, it has great widget called task killer. When you tap it, it will show running apps.
Or if you want extra and complete control even with system running apps, the install OSmonitor, it will show completely all of apps.

That's what i wanted.

My phone became laggy, so i went and checked out the RAM. The only app i opened was messenger, but my RAM had 48mb free. When i first used the CM11 rom, the RAM was high, but after a week it became like this for no reason. I checked all the open apps, counted the memory but i had only used about 100MB. Why is this happening and any suggestions? Thanks

what did you use to check ram use with?
If you look at "settings:apps:running" it only shows partial of RAM used.
i know it doesn't show cached RAM and something else...
have you tried to reboot into recovery and clear cache?
have you tried the build.prop setting and minfree settings like I mentioned in this post?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54266971&postcount=145
that should help alot
This is the 'performance control' app that I like to use

Yea i looked at the RAM using "settings:apps:running"
Ill try clearing cache and i got the "performance control" app. I used the settings that you suggested in your screenshot with the performance control app. There's just one thing i don't know how to do and its adjusting the build.prop settings. How do i do that?

Yea so i tried what you suggested, and my Fascinate is running a little better then before. It still can be slow at times, but its still better. I hope the developers make a new Android 5.0 ROM which will have better performance. Thanks for your help

I'm not sure about the phone app, but you should try disabling some Google services with disable service or use Greenify donation edition to hibernate play services.

there is no problem with google play services, the phone app stays awake all time, even i dont use it,, the device dont get to deep sleep because of that ?
Any help ?
The mobile data and screen brightness are the biggest drainer of battery life by a mile.
I would only turn the brightness up on my phone when i use it then turn it down later.
You can restrict background data, this one is the holy grail in battery conservation. Unless you specify otherwise a lot of the apps that you have on your phone like Facebook Twitter and many many more will constantly try to connect to their servers to look if there is anything new to report. To do this hit you settings, Connections, Data usage, menu, then put a tick in Restrict background data to force your phone to stop syncing continuously.
:good:

Screenshots are useless and not helpful, make your way over to the betterbatterystats thread and follow the op.

Using that app and finding the cause is a much better option than just returning to stock because it works.

I suggest you to install one or both of below free apps to monitor what is draining the battery:
- Battery Doctor(Battery Saver)
- GSam Battery Monitor
With the first one you can also set the option 'CPU Management=YES' so the phone can deep sleep
One the app is identify you can hibernate it to avoid running in background with the app 'Greenify'
Thanks.

So, it is better to test another ROM.
What about Slimrom? have you tested it?

Strange, maybe and issue with that specific S3 model.
I have tested CM, Slimkat, C-ROM, Carbon, Omegarom on S3 GT-I9300 and I havenĀ“t had that issue,
battery life is better than the stock rom.
Maybe you can try to run a cleaning kernel script before flashing if not done yet.
Use the betterbatterystats app i mentioned before to find out whats causing the phone app to stay awake.
Its all good to say the phone app is keeping it awake but you need to find the trigger or service that is doing so. The screen shots you are providing are basic and do not provide this, you need a log from this app.
