What RAM size in NAND android ?
My RAM size is 412Mb FREE: 214mb
correct ? Size in WM 6,5 is 576mb ram
I have 412mb and 106mb free
What Rom are you using and what Radio? I get almost 300 MB free with MDJ Gingerbread and its really really fast (I also use Taskiller Full version)

People are talking about ram size not free size.
I also got 412mb.

Same here! I asked earlier and got answer that 128mb is reserved for graphic, and rest for drivers... I would like to hear more opinions
I have gingerbread and i have 411 MB total
and i currently have 284 MB Free (i already installed aps and games)

Hi,
In the specification sheet of HTC HD, it is clearly said that Ram is 288 and Rom is 512. But when I turn on the device, I saw that the memory for storage is 322 (71 in use) and for program is 195.58 (80 in use).
Where are the missing part?
288-195=93 MB of RAM
512-322=190 MB of ROM?
Yes, because if your ROM was empty, your device would not start up. If your RAM was empty, you wouldn't have an Operating System loaded into it to run it.
The figures you have quoted are the factory / in use figures... i.e. Once you have started your phone up, some of the RAM gets used up by loading the OS from ROM.
I hate to sound patronising and pedantic, but if you had to ask that question, you should have probably bought an iPhone.

I knew this. But I am surprised that the OS takes such a large mount of RAM and ROM.
Do you mean that 512-322=190 MB of ROM is used for storing OS and other default apps like manila; and 288-195=93 MB of RAM is for WM 6.1?
After a soft restart, there are already 80MB RAM in use so I only have 100 MB for other apps out of 288 MB!!
I guess there should be a way to reduce the RAM and ROM usage by deleting some default apps. There is wm PPC comes with 128 RAM which gives user <100 mb to use. I am expecting that since HD has 288, I should have at least 200 mb instead of 100 mb to run my apps.
PS: I dislike the way apple manages iphone and mac. So no thanks.
Lots of the cooked ROMs in the ROM development forum cut out a lot of the fat - there are varying degrees between completely minimal to fully functional - depends on what you want. I think you will find it very difficult to fill the ROM on your device with programs etc - and media is what the Micro SD slot is for.
Could maybe do with a little more RAM at times but you can kill stuff with the taskmanager if you find your phone getting a bit sluggish.

I agree with you on this point.
Are there any tweaks to do this?

You could always use CleanRAM which does as it says, cleans RAM. Some apps or games like Xtrakt or NFS Undercover sometimes won't run due to insufficient RAM. After using this app on setting 2 they work.
Other than this your best bet is to use a lite rom with little or no apps installed on it so you can choose what you want.

Thanks.
The lite rom, 6.1 or 6.5, does a lot to reduce Rom, which is not so useful, but not that much to the Ram.
The available ram is still 190 ~ 195 mb.

However, it does cut off the Ram in use from 80 to 45 mb so finally one has 150 mb. but where is the missing 288-195?
I think you might need to just get over it matey. In proportion, it's actually not a lot of RAM usage at all. Not when you consider Windows Vista is happy when it has 1GB all to itself and then another GB for programs to run in. That's about 50% for the OS. You're moaning about the OS using about 35% of your RAM.

for PC or laptops it's fine with that usage because you can buy rams at very cheap price.
I just dont understand why there is a missing 100 MB ram for wm 6.1 os. the other phones, such as htc nike with 128mb ram give program mem of 100mb. so the os takes only 28 mb.

When I check the amount of free ram after I start my Omnia II it shows that I have somewhere around 70mb free, with half of the ram showing as "reserved".
I feel like I was cheated into buying a device which only has half the advertised amount of ram. Sure, it might be there... somewhere... but why can't we have it? Why is half of the ram "reserved" and what is the purpose of this exactly? Is there anyway to set it free?
it is possible that Samsung reserved it for Touch Wiz or samsung apps included in Rom?
Hi guys! I have the same problem. Over half RAM Memory is "reserved". I hope somebody can help us in getting more available RAM. Thanks!
"Sorg" over at modaco has determined that approx 100 is reserved for the radio, camera and hardware accelerated graphics.
currently the page pool is aprox 20 mb but the newest release from "secany" over at modaco has Samsung reducing the page pool to 15 mb to give us an extra 5 mb of ram.
maybe omnia II case is similar to the HD2 case where some geek find out how to increase RAM memory... seems that HD2 also had reserved memory for ie. radio and other functionalities and it was solved how to release it.. don't know the case in details but read over net that someone did that creating new kind of rom.
i hope xda devs can fix this issue. This is one big issue why the omnia is not so great if this gets solved then all the problems would go away. I would glady give up some space from my storage if need to et maybe 128MB free. after a cold boot i get around 60MB free thats with spb and mskip both running

Rom and Ram(random access memory) are two diff things, you cant give up internal mem as ram.
We hope one day our brother inside xda dev or modaco can create the Tools & ROM to reFormat the RAM and Hidden Store in My Storage, so we can get more storage with workable ROM, tq

Omnia 2 has 256 MB RAM as per tech spes, but only ~140 is usable, the rest remain for radio etc. so maybe this remaining ~100 MB could be accessible somehow as on HD2

if camera has reserved ram then why does it have to shutdown everything else or complains about the memory and won't start :s
good question. Anybody knows how it works or how it is supposed to work?
64mb - radio (radio chipset has no ram so it uses system mem)
36mb - os crap(pagepool,etc..)
16mb - graphics mem
256-64-36-16=140mb available to wm
64mb for the radio is... kinda too much. Seriously, what does it need that much RAM for?

easiest way to solve it is to go back to 6.1 rom you get aprox 110-120 mb of free ram. theres a few on modaco.
Or personaly i find if i use titanium + disable lock screen(usetouchlockpro), diable default dialer(use PhonEx for dialer/contacts) you get 90 mb after boot. which settles down to aprox 80-85.
This is useing Sonblack rom from PDAViet
it can be found at PDAViet or Modaco!

Not true, my one is 6.1 and yet less than 25m I can use this space even though so call factory default after reset. The bloody main storage has 512m, almost 500m has been used. I have not install any program yet. The 8G is used about 0.6G which wasted so much space. Samsung designers really screwed up!
Looks like even thought upgrade to 6.5 also did not improve much of the main storage space, that really sad..
I was shocked by these amounts of free memory too.
I was found only ONE solution...FLASHING some LITE or ULITE (Ultra LITE) ROM.
I personally flashed rom by Speedfrog: http://windows.modaco.com/topic/323437-lite-roms-by-speedfrog/
Free main memory about 300MB and free Ram about 110MB...I'm using it for more than one year with great success.
With the Desire coming out with 576mb of ram compared to the N1 512mb, would the N1 just have hidden 576mb. Seeing as the HD2 came with 448mb, but with a radio update it was able to uncover 512mb.
Just a thought.
crazy cat said:
On the MWC i have seen that the Desire has only 80-65 MB free. On my Nexus i have 120 (will on the stocked rom )
The Nexus runs faster than the Desire. And i think google will support (with new updates) the Nexus longer than htc it will do.

And I got around 300MB free when killin some more tasks (on CM 5.0.3)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=635838
Even the stock N1 only provides 211 MBytes of RAM (from kernel dmesg), Do you think you can more than that? I mean how much RAM being allocated by kernel in stock Desire ?
TQ
This is a doublepost, please go on here.
I've tried to start android rom, with 576Mb ram Windows Mobile rom like (last Leo rom), but Android view only 448Mb.
Is it possible ram hack android rom? for use all 576Mb ram??
Sorry for my poor english
Ps: thanks to all, I bought an htc hd2 phone, only for install Android!!!
Android splits the RAM of the device between the kernel/system (?) and the dalvik VM... or something, either way all of should be used. I thought the Leo only had 448mb anyway? It does according to hTC.
448 is for the system 128 for the video card.
448+128=576
Hi AdrianK,
but htc Leo has really 576Mb ram, non virtually (like htc g1 ram hack, that move ram from graphic to system).
Htc Leo has physically 576Mb dedicate.

No in windows mobile you get the same. You will also see about 448.
I think there is a way since older kernels where 256 mb and 32mb video memory.
But it is not useful since the preformence in android will slow down very much slower animations etc. But believe me we got more then enough ram.

Thats correct but if you go to in the reall settings (latest manilla tabs > more>more )not manilla settings it will show 448.

The leo has 576 mb of ram dedicated and a X amount of video ram. There are roms around that make it posible to use the full amount of ram (like the US T-mobile versions)
I am not sure how android uses the ram u wil need to speak to a Android dev about that.
if you look in the general section there are a couple of threads on this issue
Just curious to know if the non-"sense" (lol) versions run lighter on the amount of available RAM for NAND?
If so, what is your FREE MEMORY on boot-up, or after clearing with a task killer.
On my sense builds so far anywhere between 150-220 free, after clearing with a task killer.
Wheres my 512MB of RAM now that NAND has been accomplished? Well, at least 350MB+?

The build I'm using on a TMOUS Leo has 768.8 mb free for data portion so I assume a 512 mb version would have 256.8 meg left.

Okay, let me re-state, "how much free RAM is left after booting?
ROM is what you are referring to.
The T Mobile HD2 has a theoretical 568MB RAM(486MB RAM + 75MB Graphics, 1024MB ROM(Where android installs). I have plenty of ROM space, as do you.
I am wondering why it would take 300, or even 200MB of RAM just to run Android OS 2.2?
Once booted, I only have 230MB of RAM available(nowhere near the 486MB the phone has)
According to Android System Info:
My TMOUS leo: RAM max:411MB Free:283MB
Nexus One: RAM max:402MB Free:268MB
They both run MIUI.
if you goto Tasks tab, you'll know what eat up your ram.
