Hi guys,
My HTC HD2, if I go to Settings - SD Card & Phone Storage - Shows as follows:
Total Storage: 191.68 MB
Used Storage: 75.28 MB
Free Storage: 116.40 MB
Total Program: 336.06 MB
Used Program: 150.39 MB
Free Program: 185.67 MB
If I go to Settings - About Phone - Hardware Information: It shows a RAM size of 448 and a Flash Size of 448 MB.
My question is:
TOTAL PROGRAM means the total RAM memory? If yes, where are the 112 MB?
Is there any way I can check how much RAM does my phone have free and how much is in use?
Thanks a lot for answering this.
System has taken up some RAM, like for GPU
manila reads the hardware but windows reads the accisable memory
If your phones working ok then its not an issue so don't worry about it.
Get hold of CleanRAM if you feel it necessary.

What are the RAM series that we could use to upgrade our xda from 32 Mb to 128 Mb? :roll: I'v seen several sites that they could do that it's too expensive unless we should send it to TAIWAN :? It could be helpfull if we know what chip type they use of RAM don't you agree??
Still hoping!
I'm wondering if somebody would calls for the question :roll:
i had mine upgraded in usa... ppctechs.com (i think)
and they list the type of memory chip used somewhere on their site.
its not a secret, but removing and soldering the new ones
is what they charge for mostly
Search the news, topic has been developped many times
(read the title)...
You can upgrade main memory to 64 MB max;
If you upgrade to 128, you have 64 MB memory and 'memory disk' of 64 (plus the SD of course).
I've read that only one firm (don't remember the name) could provide drivers so that the 64 other MB can be recognized as disk. If you don't have them, your 128 MB will be divided into 64 main memory + 0 (zero) MB disk

Kita thanks for the reply it was useful
On all my PCs, I have known how much storage space is at my disposal. But not on the Universal.
The user manual states that the device has
ROM: 128 Mb RAM: 64 Mb
But using Settings -> System -> Memory, I get the information that the space is 43.72 Mb for storage and 47.93 Mb for programs.
That makes almost 91 Mb. What is the relationship between these 91 Mb and the ROM and RAM? And when I use File Explorer (or Total Commander), I cannot see any distinction between areas for storage and programs.
Can anybody remove my confusion?
Welcome to the world of Windows Mobile 5...
128 MB ROM is divided into space for the operating system (+- 64 MB) and persistent storage (this is where you have 43.72 MB available). Persistent storage will preserve your data even when the battery is flat.
The RAM is no longer user controllable, and you cannot (easily) store anything there. So the 47.93 MB for programs is purely informational. No more slider where you can shift between storage and program memory.
obviously you are new... but please, research and read the existing thousands of discussion and contributions by hundreds of people on this same topic.
it is expired, old and tedium when the answers are here, over and over and over again.
there is a search function, it works try it.
Here's how it goes:
he Universal comes with 128MB ROM and 64MB RAM as compared to its predecessors who had the exact opposite.
The 128MB ROM is divided into 2 parts:
1) OS + Extended ROM (around 84MB)
2) Storage (remaining 43.5MB as shown above
The 64MB RAM is 90% available to run programs. As with the earlier version of the OS, there is no longer a provision to alter the memory allocated between storage and program memory. Of the 64MB RAM, around 15MB RAM is used for running the OS while the rest (47.93 MB) is left for running installed programs. This is more than enough to do multi-tasking without hiccups.
Hope this helps If you still have any queries about it, please feel free to ask.
hansof feel free to ask anything you want, we arent all smart arses like simon_dreary. In my experience the search function is rubbish.
Hi,
in the prophet specs it says that it is supposed to have 128MB storage and 64MB RAM.
When i pop open the memory in settings it says:
Storage
Total: 47.46
In Use: 18.37
Free: 29.09
Program
Total: 44.01
In Use: 33.69
Free: 10.32
Where is my 64 and 128? Have the memory nomes stolen it?
Cheers,
Oz.
Yes, those gnomes are tricky little bustards
But seriously, I wrote this before and I am writing it again:
128 and 64 are "box numbers".
First, the calculation there is a bit off because they round up 1024 to 1000 when calculating KB and MB. It's just like with a memory card or PC hard disk, even with nothing on it you see a bit less.
Than there is the division:
128 ROM is all your flash and it is divided as follows:
64MB +/- OS Image, 10MB Extended ROM, whatever is left - yours to do with as you please.
64 RAM - well we already established that you should see around 55 instead of 64, plus the OS reserves some so there you go.
Those numbers are normal although we all wish they could be bigger (the available part any way).
I have a Wing Win Mobile 6 Pro CE OS 5.2.1235 (Build 17740.0.2.0)
In the Memory settings it shows Program is using:
Total: 43.87 MB
In Use: 39.42 MB
Free: 4.45 MB
And no programs are running???? I have a friend with the Dash and they have the same issue also.
I store my files on 4GB mem and only have main programs on the internal storage.
Please Advise.
Its a 12mb pagepool problem on the wing, they have a fix for it already, prob listed more than several times on this forum. Search for wing page pool. It takes litterally a second to do and you will have more memory after a reset. And the free memory is your RAM has nothing todo with how big your files are and where they are stored, Its simply what the Wings OS is using to run.
Aside from the 12mb pagepool:
1. MS Live has a severe memory leak.
2. My5 sucks up memory as well.
Many things in the standard wing ROM seem to have bad memory leaks...
There's a few things you can do.
I'm running an 8MB page pool.
What services/apps are unecessary and can delete/remove without affecting the standard image?
Hi,
I would like to understand how to optimize the memory usage on my Elf. The memory application reports
Storage:
Total: 30.44MB
IN Use: 28.95MB
Free: 1.48MB
Program:
Total: 47.90MB
In Use: 32.42MB
Free: 15.48MB
I am trying to chase a memory leak in one of the application and I would like to troubleshoot this.
As newbie, I am not sure of the memory management model of Windows Mobile 6.1.
- What exactly are the Storage & Applications buckets? Is storage the built-in flash or something?
- How to identify and cleanup memory hungry applications?
- Are there any known leaks in "Windows Mobile 6.1" while using network?
The "Memory" utility shows only couple of applications running but obviously there must be lot of other cruft that is loaded for the system to run.
