Is there something that will provide an enhancement to memory usage on a dinc that requires root. Like preventing apps from automatically running in background. Tired of using a task killer when memory gets down to very low levels.
Maybe a Rom that's efficient at doing this.
Anyone have any ideas?

I think Autokiller is what you're looking for.

I use Autostarts for this.

+1 on autostarts. Instead of killing your apps, autostarts prevents them from starting.
And why do you need to kill these apps? Have they tried to injure you?
Seriously... you probably don't need to kill them unless one of them is acting up. The phone will free up memory as you need it.
Those look good. I'll try them out and see what works better.

I haven't any of this, but maybe it will help you
I know the phone will free up memory as needed but I'm ocd about it and hate that at times it gets down below 40 and bogs the phone down. Tired of seeing apps start up by themselves. I used titanium to freeze apps but now don't remember what's frozen and what's installed on my system. Need something automatic and easier to maintain.

Autokiller does exactly what you are asking for...
Does anyone else's google voice app open really slow? Almost ask of my other apps open immediately or at least in less than a second. For some reason the google voice app on my vibrant can take anywhere from 2-8 seconds to open...
Its very annoying...
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
yes, it does take forever to open at times. after you apply the lag fix it opens instantly though. depending on your preference and risk level if you want to venture down the "lag fix" path.
it did this when i updated it this morning, but it has been fine ever since
Mine opens quickly and I do not have a lag fix.
I love the new widgets.

oh, neat. i was wondering what the update actually did
still need to be able to block callers though (or is there a way to do this already?)
Since updating today its not only slow to load, but slow everywhere when using the app. It often hands for 3-5 seconds fit no apparent reason. Do I need to uninstall the app and reinstall? Is my inbox too full? It says I have just over 400 messages. Do I need to archive a bunch of them?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
So I tried cleaning out my inbox, rebooting my phone, and uninstall/reinstall of the app...none of this helped.
Am I they only one having issues?
Any ideas on what i could do to troubleshoot? Is this just a samsung thing and I should just wait until froyo update before spending too much time troubleshooting?

The new update was unbearable. Google voice always took 2-3 seconds to open but with this update it seems to take longer. On top of that it would lag the crap out of swype, and freeze the phone for 3-5 second after sending a message.
Titanium backup saved me from this horrible update.

Just a note: it also freezes the stock android keyboard as well. So its not specific to swype...

did you guys try force closing the app and clearing the cache?
like i mentioned earlier, i had this problem at first after the update but it has been fine ever since.

i uninstalled, reinstalled, restored to factory, wiped, and reinstalled and its still the same way, laggy as hell

Its this a vibrant problem or a google voice problem?

Sounds like a vibrant issue if after applying the lag fix it disappears.

So google just released an update for the GV app today. I installed it and so far it seems that the vast majority of lag I was experiencing is now gone! Has anyone else here that was having issues tried the update from today? I'm curious if any one else is having luck with todays update?

I don't find it annoying but I consider it a stupid choice by going with 1x3. I have Launcher Pro Plus so I just resize it to 1x4. Much better
Ok. Say I'm playing angry birds, I hit home and open the browser, within 15 seconds the angry birds closes so when I go back to it, it has to reopen. Very annoying. My phone seems to want my ram to stay at 80mb free ram. Now I know android automatically closes apps and processes when the ram is needed, but to not be able to have 2 apps open is bugging the **** out if me.. The system should let it get to like 20 mb not closing apps constantly...
Anyone know what's up... Running tw bionix v1. Non tw version....
I dont want my apps to close on 80 mb ram.. I want them to close at like 20mb....
You can use galaxy tuner to set those numbers or auto killer . Auto killer has presets .

Yes it does save, if you switch away and switch right back it retains state. The OP is complaining that it gets auto closed too easily

Any application does that regardless of if you override onsaveinstancestate. The bundle you are given is for when the OS needs to close the activity to reclaim memory.

I have this problem too. I'll be playing angry birds, receive a text, and in the time it takes me to reply and get back to the game (Something like 10-15 seconds) it closes.
Edit: Tried Galaxy Tuner. I set the BA slider to 10mb, like the FA slider. Works perfectly.

Well, if they don't worry about it, then neither will I. It took me forever to find the best way to save large arrays of different objects into the bundle. Serializable in case anyone is wondering.

Basically its the process of converting objects, with their states and data, into a linear simplified form so as to make it easy to save.
Instead of having separate functions to read the date of each object and save it, a programer can save the entire object as its stored in memory. With some precautions, this greatly simplifies the storage of data.
Its like saying save the object "highscores" instead of "foreach score write this to a file".

I am currently running EH06, stock/deodexed and am experiencing seemingly random reboots. I was curious to see if this issue is memory leak related, and from general RAM checking, I believe it may be. Of my available 342 MB of ram, RIGHT NOW my phone reports 241 MB taken up, I have seen that value getting up into the low 300's at it's peak, and unfortunately I haven't seen it immediately preceding a reboot.
I decided to check the memory usage from the command line, and when I run 'free' via the bash shell, of the 350400 KB (342MB) of potential RAM - which matches nicely with what the phone is reporting - I am being told I in fact have 321 MB of RAM taken up. Now I'm no Linux/Android guru, but that doesn't seem right.
So I opened up a bunch of apps, visited a couple of websites, backed out to the home screen and rechecked my numbers. I am now at 302MB/342MB according to the task manager app, but 338MB/342MB according to 'free'. Using the 'Clear Ram' button, I was able to knock it back down, but I have seen it in the past few days not drop the used RAM amount upon pressing that button...
I'm experincing similar problems , it seems every day I need to do a reeboot to keep my ram usage down cause when I first boot , let everything load ... then kill tasks I have around 180 free but after about a day when I kill tasks I have around 80 free and I need to reboot for peace of mind I don't know what it is but I hope I get fixed ....

People have had mixed results with the 3G Turbocharger script and KickAssKernel scripts. The V6 script is the one many are reporting helps with the RAM leak. I used oprion #9 MegaRAM2. This is the lastest script. You need to get Script Manager from Market. Select "run as root" then "run". http://db.tt/oUYakOc

In the world of software, there is NO random, everything has a cause. We call things random when we haven't defined the problem's pattern.
So check it out , I instaled the new eh06 plus kernel without really getting an answer as to what a kernel was and it seems to have helped I haven't been on it for 24 hours yet but I will update and let you know

The paid "Full" version of Memory Booster allows to to set (raise) the minimum RAM threshold supposedly. I just got it and will see if I change it and install and run a bunch of apps if it prevents the reboots. Huh, I got the "Full" version but the minimum RAM threshold is set in the MB RAM Optimizer app. I will change it from 15% to 35% and see if it stops reboots tonight.

I've been getting these "random" reboots with all of the GB leaks. Been looking at my logcat but I can't make heads or tails out of what the messages mean. Currently using catlog for the logcat reader, never seen anything under the lowest level "what a terrible failure" but get tons of stuff under the next level up "error".
currently running eg22.
Would love a thread detailing how to do anything with this that might help figure out what's causing these issues.

Great John, let us know. The free version is great for seeing what is REALLY using your memory. Not the little bit the stock task manager kills. Apps are constantly loading in the background even if you haven't used them in months. If you go to Task Killer in Memory Booster Lite you will see this "ninja" apps stealing your memory. This is what people keep calling memory leaks. They are real apps loading.

ive been running stock odex eh06 since it first leaked on samfirmware and i never had a random reboot
but i am seeing memory problems. such as maps running using a whole 6MB of ram. Think, 10 years ago, that wouldve took a supercomputer. Why are these apps running even when i dont launch them?
such as engadget, maps, telenav, THREE DIALERS TAKING UP 11MB EACH WTF I THOUGHT THERE WAS ONLY ONE DIALER. anyways yeah i usually have ~100mb free but still. when i CLOSE an app, it should CLOSE. I also shouldnt see the app UNLESS I LAUNCH IT.
will v6 stop this? im scared of borking something thats why i ask...i cant afford to use the "trial and error" method like i used to :/
