Hello, I recently got that app called Rheosoft RAM Expander for adding virtual RAM on my SD card. I works fine ( I added 1.5GB) but after a reboot, the app shows only 256 my is present. How do I cure it?
Dont use it. The mxp already have enough ram and using it, you will only notice a difference/benefit when you have an older device with 512mb or less memory. Also the more virtual ram (zram or swapp) the more battery it will eat. When using Kernel Adiutor you can easily change the zram size to 510mb if you like more virtual ram. Don't use a higher value or your phone will crash.

Hi,
in my struggle to free as much ram as possible (by moving to storage/SD every single bit i could) i was able to reduce the (static) RAM i'm using to 1.68MB, even retaining all my needed application (in SD) and two Today plugin in RAM.
With an available total RAM size of 57.41MB, i should be able to use 57.41-1.68 MB of dynamic RAM.
The problem is WM won't let me to do it.
To free more dynamic RAM, i should move to the left the static-dynamic memory slider in Start->Setting->System->Memory BUT whenever i try to lower it under about 9mb, WM reset the slider to it's original position (about in the middle of the bar).
This way i'm forced to allocate more than 10MB (9 + 1.68) to static RAM even if i'm using ONLY 1.68MB and i'm not going to use anymore.
Is there a way to AVOID the S.O. resetting the slider or, at least, to let me assign the static RAM no more than 3 or 4MB???
What's the point in relocating every program, dll, htm and so on to SD card if i'm still obliged to waste 10MB of precious RAM???
PLS help me!!!
Bye bye,
Isidoro
I think you will be able to further lower the Storage memory when your Program memory reached about 0.75 of its allocated slot.
Have you ever try using almost all your allocated Program memory, and see if you can reduce the Storage memory even further? I'd like to see if it can be done.

Uhm... i should try. Maybe when using pocketgba. I'll let you know.

There isn't a way to reduce this value? (0.75?)
I have used to use Kaiser and Topaz for now. I think these devices made by HTC has a single chip for storage for use of both Ram and Rom.
I do not use the program memory generally, i have ~150mb of free space of it, however, i have only ~60-70mb of ram which is not enough.
Is it possible to partition this chip to change the size of ram module by picking up a little from the program partition?
As I know, It uses different modules, you can see them in this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=669871&page=2
And the RAM and ROM cannot be the same, because RAM forgets everything what is loaded into that if you restart/shutdown.
And you know the RAM means Random Access Memory and ROM means Read Only Memory. We can write the ROM because it has to be programmable, but it doesnt forget its data.
So I'm sorry, I think its impossible
Sorry for my English, I hope you understand.

disable push internet .exe. it takes up 10mb ram. disable lock screen 6mb ram. disable start menu,use kenia1234 alternative for sense 15mb ram. disable htc tabs you don't use. disable htc phone skin dialer, 15mb extra ram. use these, you will get lots of free ram.
If I understand this correctly, the largest amount of RAM an app can use is determined by the VM Heap size. If my heap size is 32MB, no program can use more than 32MB.
SWAP will write a app out of RAM to a swap partition instead of closing the program. This is helpful for having more programs "active" so if I want to switch back to a program, it just resumes by loading the swap back to RAM, instead of having to restart the application.
So, I can increase the VM Heap size and it could improve a game's performance by allowing it to have a larger memory footprint. SWAP will not help improve a games performance, but if I switch out of a game, it will make it easier to return to since it may not have to reload it.
Do I have this correct?
Is there anything else I can do to improve a high-end game performance other than overclocking?
Also, does SWAP provide any other benefits other than not having to reload an application? Maybe better memory management or something.
Also, what is the max read/write speed of the GT540? Could it max out a class 10 SD card?
Hi fellow earthlings. Yes, this phone's slowing down. Need to allocate more RAM into this puppy.
I used ROEHSOFT's RAM Expander but I have a hard time finding the path required for the RAM Swap.
Can somebody please tell me which directory I am supposed to use as the default ain't working.
Or if you have some other way for increasing the RAM then please do tell.
Thanks!
.... So nothing?
You need to find out if your phone supports swap files first. There's another app for that. I'm trying to do exactly the same thing.
I suggest to gain more ram, block wakelocks alarms and unused services
Firstly install wakelock detector on google play to detect or install Xposed and Amplify firstly
Making a swap and using ram from swap will make your device slow.
Favorite rom -
Faux clock / any kernel tuner -
Enable kms - (setting recommended from Google for low memory device)
Set kms page_to_scan to 100
Set kms sleep_milleseconds to 500
Enable set io scheduler from 2048k - 4096k
Ram memory pro - (this setting help with memory swap when using kms, zram, and swap file combinations)
Enable at boot setting
Set balance tuning for apps and multitasking
Setxperia - (not available in store for tablet/must find and sideload) (setting recommended from Google for low memory device)
Enable zram with 400 MB size (zram have priority before using swap file / that where the magic at) (least used data get page out to zram and then to the page file)
Set swap file to data partition with 200 MB size
Set swappiness set to 100
Create swap. Total swap setting aside should equal to 615 MB
Use zramcc to check if zram/swap working. Swap total size should be 615MB. (reduce swap file size from 400 to 200 to minimize lag when all available swap are used up)
Link2SD - no need for explanation. I used this with a fast flash card to hold my titanium backup and app linkage. This app allow me to have all my apps that I used.
Seeder 2.0 - no need for explanation. This just classic lag free app. Check the entropy resources before and after usage before complaining how old and useless this app is.
Misc -
Unload/uninstall any memory hogged app, like Facebook Messenger (takes up almost 50MB), that like to stay in the system memory permanently. Can't even kill it with task manager. DO NOT USED ANY MEMORY CLEANER OR ADVANCE TASK KILLER. This will cause a swap overload. Let android manage the memory task. Reboot the tablet once all the settings have been applied. The tablet will behave very well and feel like a more expensive tablet.
I have the stock opengapps replace all the core stock rom app. Afterward, I removed any gapp that I do not use.
My Amazon Fire experiences:
My launcher is loaded with widgets and I can pretty much open any application that I used without any freeze or as little lag as possible. I game on this table now and no longer use my phone. Brave frontier and valkyrie crusade.

Update on information
Is all of this information still up to date? Any new additions/tweaks?
Also for some reason, after using zramcc I don't see 615 I only see 415 total.

Err...not really...although much of the guidance is reasonable albeit not optimal IMHO. Check out "L Speed" if seeking a quick tuner with a large following and solid reputation. Tweak one thing at a time and assess benefits before moving to the next item.
