Is there such a thing as an internal memory tester? I have a bizare feeling that half way through my RAM its buggy and keeps crashing my ROMs and other data that is on there. I would like to be able to tet to confirm or deny a problem with it.
A1 SD Bench on the play store
Is there one that tests it out side of the running ROM? Currently my ROMs arn't realy working.

I am currently running cyanogen 4.0.4 on a myTouch, I had about 70-80 applications installed on the phone and started to see a huge lag issue. I recently wiped the phone and started everything from fresh and the phone is working the way it should be. I have a 16GB SD card and looked into Apps2SD but is that the only option I have to run my applications on my SD card to keep my phone performance the way it is now?
Does anyone have any input?
apps2sd wont make much of a difference. i have 130 on mine and it runs fast. do you use setcpu or overclocker widget or anything like that?
Just to clarify I am not talking about the storage in the device.
I have noticed ever since I have got this mytouch that the internal memory is low. Sometimes its around 17m and creeps up to 21m at times. I have looked at other peoples devices that are not rooted and have noticed way higher memory available sometimes in the 40m. I am seeing this using advance task killer or even linda file manager shows this available memory number. My device is rooted with the latest 4.2.8.1 mod. I have an 8gig sd card partitioned in 3 portions and one of the portions is a Linux swap file thinking that this would help it run smoother. I look at the running apps in the advance task killer and some of the time there is 4 apps running. I kill all of them and it boost up to 28m But then later on it comes down to 20m. I have heard people having up to 70m on their devices. I have never seen that ever since I have had this device. Has anyone heard of up to 70m before on a mytouch? Maybe I am hearing lies or whatever but this is confusing with the internal memory and what it should be and what people have seen and what I have seen on my device.
So my question is what should the advance task killer say is normal for memory available on the mytouch if all apps are closed besides advance task killer? Has anyone ever seen 70m here? If you have 70m then tell me what the heck are you running? I am not happy with sometimes seeing 17m and the device is slow as a turtle. Is there a way to use a part of my external sd memory card as internal memory within this os. I dont think the swap file is the trick to gain more memory for the device to use when more memory is needed internally.
Strange my rooted phone has 39M right now...

hope this helps you
if your device is running slow...something is def wrong....i just got my wife a new phone (same as yours) its rooted running the latest cyanogen mod...no theme on it...and it fast!
her mem show anywhere between 25~40 when advanced task killer is used
hope that helps...
maybe a wipe and re-flash will get you running faster.
I've been having quite a big problem recently. Something has been sucking internal memory like crazy. I've flashed several ROMs and still have the same problem of the low memory alert.
I flashed another ROM today and had 144MB of internal memory at noon. Now, without downloading any apps or doing anything major, I now have 133MBs for internal storage. I've currently been using a2sd because iGo is a total space hog and its better than the native gps app imho (doesnt seem to lose GPS signal every few minutes)
The other issue I'm having is the GPS. Its pretty much crucial to me right now because I've been going from Thousand Oaks to LA and everywhere in between and have only found two ROMs that I dont have GPS problems with. Those: EE4.0 and Aloysius
However, both of those have been giving me the low memory warning constantly and I cannot recover space no matter what I delete. I tried deleting iGo (a huge app) and it only accounted for a few MB (the full app is over 20)
I'm quite confused and have never had this problem before.
I've searched the web and it seems theres no solution available at the moment and Froyo takes care of it.

Well, about the internal memory storage, it could be your cache. Try downloading an app called CacheMate; I'm not sure about the free version, but the paid version has a 'Power Clear' option that clears ALL the cache on your phone. It usually clears about 8-14MB of cache everyday.
Also, 11MB really isn't really a big deal at all, as it will function just as well with 133MB as it will with 144MB.
Greetings all
I have a HD2 running Android. The ROM is DL DesireZ v2 internal. software number 1.72.466.4
I am at an understanding there is a new version out but the flash I have atm is 100% working besides one thing....the phone memory.
When I first flashed it I had loads of phone memory, I think it was like what, 150mb?
But I downloaded lots of apps, even used the Apps2Sd app to save space on the phone memory.
So after a while, I ran out of phone memory, how? I have no idea.
I have deleted all the apps I had and I still have <10mb space on my phone memory and I can not find ANYTHING on the phone memory taking up this space.
Anyone else have this issue?
My gf is going nuts at me over this, she said she may as well have the Win 6.5 back on it, since she had no apps anyways
Cheers,
Gib
yea i have the same problem..
all my apps are installed on my sd card or my ext3 partition.
still i have very little phone memory available.
somehow it looks like the phone is saving the app on the phone but then moving it to the sd card without removing it on the phone memory and causing data loss?
also when updating an app i just lose a lot of internal memory..
how is it possible that there are a lot of people with this problem (i searched the forums) and nobody know an answer to this?
Just wanted to give a heads up to anyone who maybe running stuff off their sd, cache, apps, data. Even on my Class 10 sd card that I just got. Soon as those apps were put in, major lag and slowdown of the phone. Seems its due to them always being in memory.. even tho you dont use them. Moment I deleted them, my 2.2 rom works fine. Kinda sucks about those apps.. but just thought I would pass that info on since they could be more common apps that people overlook. msnbc is another one but doesnt seem to be the cause of a slowdown really.
