Memory EXTREMELY Low

[Zetsumei]

I know how android works but having only 40mb of free ram WILL SLOW THE PHONE DOWN the are other things the phone can use, say, 100mb for instead of just keeping apps running for quicker opening, der der. And then when you open a brand new heavy app for the first time it will slow your phone down cause it has to close apps to give you more memory, why don't you guys do your homework instead of just reading articles on sites..

I notice no delay, unless you're like oh noes 4th seconds instead of instantly. If yoyou already know, why ask? Mad +10 Pznerd.

Delay and lag, now that I use supercharger and have 100mb ALWAYS free my phone never lags and never has delays

The Android OS is good at managing memory, but there are also tasks that take a great deal of memory. I would say if there is less than 80mb of free memory available, ones device may slow down and lag. I cannot believe that Moto put suck a low amount of Ram in a dual core device. Ram is a valuable resource that these manufacturers seem to forget about.

for comparison.
go launcher has widget called task manager. it shows avavilble memory. and will close down programs that are sitting in the background .
i have a g2x that has the tegra 2 with 512mb of ram. and with go launcher running with the weather live wallpaper.
and when i close the programs that are not being used. i get 207mb free , thats the ussually amount it shows when everything else is closed.
so the numbers for the droid 2 x shoudl be the same so i am thinking its the great motoblur thats eating the rest of your memory.
i havve had it show 245mb and even with need for speed running in the background i have 145mb free.
so i think the OP does have a point here something isnt right
g2x is on froyo 2.2.2 .
not trying to say anything about the droid x2 just thought this was a comparable device to compare to for you.

I froze all the bloatware in the phone and now get around 142mb of free ram...search for how to do a titanium back up and its pretty simple. need root though.

The DX2 apparently has a bad/poor memory allocation issue. 108mb is apparently allocated for the Tegra 2's gpu, but even considering 404mb, it does not add up. Go into the built-in task manager and add the OS, home UI, OS tasks, user apps and free ram- there is NOT 404mb and about 130mb is missing.

It gets worse from there, since if you go through the same process of adding up where the ram is, you will notice the ram slowly declines.

At start up when adding all used and free ram:

Total ram equals 260mb to 270mb (should equal at least 404mb)

After running for a few hours (and using the device) the total ram dips below 230mb (again, should be at least 404mb)

The missing operational ram is choking an otherwise great device. People are saying that using the Super V6 script helps, but that was designed for the 256mb Droid 1. That alone should tell folks there is a problem with the DX2's memory.

Running the script or not will result in a slow bleeding of usable ram. My average after about five hours use with or without the script was less than 40mb free ram and a total accounted for of 226mb- where is the other 178mb? I can not find it and the device performs like it is missing.

Repost from another thread:
You didnt customize the minfree levels V6 SuperCharger. It's works great regardless no matter the phone used.

Why didnt you put in the megamemory device values?
If you did you would have had about 100mb free after running a whole bunch of apps.

It would be great if people, such as yourself, did not display their ignorance at the expense of people's probable benefit of something when said people, such as yourself, used it incorrectly or did not follow recommendations.

In addition to that, the memory managment sucks on most gingerbread roms anyway, which is what V6 SuperCharger fixes and does it better than anything else out there (OOM fixes) - the minfree is secondary, really.

If you supercharge again just use minfree levels that give you the free ram you want, with slot 3 being the biggest factor.

Don't ever supercharge again because an ignorant know it all that can't follow simple recommendations, such as yourself, does not deserve it.

title says it all.

You're probably right
just finished with a broken watermain on a saturday, slept only 2 hrs so kinda grumpy

[xgrinder911]

What are the megamemory device values?
