[Q] Increase Ram? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am curious, I have looked around but haven't really found any good or helpful information in regards to this. Although the Xperia X10 has 384mb of system ram. If I move a bunch of apps using Link2sd and free up so much space, is there anyway to increase the 384mb limit, say add another 128mb to make it 512mb thus enhancing the device?
or am i out of town on this one?

buddy our first focus should be to atleast use full 384 mb...
however we are right now only using just 256 mb of the ram.....

if you really want to use more, flash data2sd.zip through xrecovery. but, know that it is slower :S just try using a different ROM, Jerpelea's cm7 is very fast and snappy, a bit buggy for now, but try some other ones, you might find one you like

advice about bootloader/overclock

I want unlock bootloader on my ray mostly because of overclock and now wont to now how much is really performance improvement with overclock, in other words does it pay of the risk of loosing warranty?
thx
Unlock bootloader and overclock only if you aren't satisfied with your current performance ... It surely sounds sweet but You will surely void your warranty by overclocking.... If you are a new bie then I don't recommend overclocking because you may brick your device or worst burn your CPU... It is must to have enough basic android experience such as rooting first.

I am not new i have ray half year now and i was have x8 for 1 year before ray and it was have unlock bootloader, custom kernel, overclock and many other mods, i know android pretty well, i just want to ask someone who overclocked ray is he sadisfied with performance and does it worth
Okay so go ahead ... I don't have ray but walkman .. I've overclocked it and its worth it...

If u unlock ur bootloader it will void ur warranty. It will be good if u overclock it, like others say.
I've seen some reports about ppl burning their phones because of OC....
I would not really recommend it. 1GHz is enough for your phone being smooth.
But if you must OC it, be careful and don't overdo it. Don't OC to like 1.6GHz - 1.8GHz like some sorry dumbasses do.
After all It's better to have a working phone then a burned one
I'm not trying to be a smartass here, just trying to make you think twice before doing it
According to my experience 100mhz =+2 max fps u can use supercharger v6,built.prop n init.d tweaks these won't affect your phone's life

Yeah, already did all of that
Ive seen a guy in antutu. He is using stock 2.3.4 oc=2.0gGhz he got 6000+ score!! That's half of galaxy s3 running on stock
Sent from my LT15i using xda app-developers app
you can relock bootloader
i'm on 1.6 GHz on JellyBean on xperia mini and it is stable
I clocked my phone to 1.5Ghz and this is more than perfect. I don't have fps issues in games anymore (at least those I've played yet) and the phone doesn't seem to be too hot. It feels more like charging the battery, so I think there's no problem.

It consumes more battery to gain more performance. Set it to higher if u want to play big games. But it will drain battery more

Free ram is wasted ram?

I know I'm going to draw a lot of flak from this, but it's really annoying seeing so called *power users*(stock launcher, stock everything) saying stuff like "i have 300-400mb free ram". For other people like me that use widgetlocker, nova launcher, avast, dropsync and a number of widgets, that amount easily drops to 150-160mb free ram on IDLE after 1 minute of booting the phone. (That is on the 833mb kernels with almost all non-essentials frozen) (and yes, I've tried the one with 857mb ram too)

Not my video, got that from another thread, but that clearly shows how 2gb ram is clearly better than 1gb ram. No more stupid reloading apps, browser tabs when multitasking.
What's your point?
To make a stupid thread telling us that having more of something is better than having less?
Wow, you don't say.

i prefer more rams to be sure that later my s3 will handle that crap TW with all those bloatware than having 1gb ram and disabling/removing appz....
You point being what exactly?
I did not watch the whole thing because....maybe its just me but...its the same freaking performance. =]
Obviously more is better . Even having ram free at your disposal just incase you load a memory hog app or website is better then having android close another app to free ram for you.
Just buy the latest s3 i9305 with double ram and you will stop complaining lol enough said.

It's threads like these that get on my nerves, what are you trying to convey to us? Samsung did not trick you into buying the phone, and if there was no 2gb version, would you even post this?

Free RAM is unutilised RAM
Uhh, what? Free ram is wasted ram, but more ram gives you more to work with.
Thread closed, we dont need to go over the fundamentals of android memory management again, there are plenty of threads on this.

Anyone can transplant miui v5 for our x10?

We can see MIUI V5 for 20 devices will be released recently.
We also have scritch007's cm10 for x10,and even HD2 and Defy will get miui v5.
I like miui v5,so is their any developers will make miui v5 rom for x10i
Sorry for bad English,Thanks!
Thumbs up
Yeah, it would be awesome. :good:
Miui v5 is really slow on 512 mb ram phones... I can't imagine what it is going to be liike on the x10

Please don't joke. Take a look at RAM usage in attachment. X10 would never run this os smooth
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
It is problem with optimization on your phone. If I use CM on Xperia S sometimes get 500Mb used And on same CM on X10 used for example 180Mb
Some times somebody say, that we never get ICS, and now?
I think you're wrong, and no I'm not joking.
If SD swap was used, ram problem might be a bit better
I'M BATMAN
I sold my x10 on January so I don't know how the ics works on this phone right now, but it is probably lagging as hell. Of course some useless apps could be removed and it would make the ROM faster but over 300mb of ram is still too less. It could boot up but You weren't able to use it everyday anyway.

That is what is called zram.
I'm not sure if its turned on, on any of the custom roms/kernels
The dsc kernel is capable of it, but it needs to compiled, turned on, and activated inside a version of Android that supports it.

Sent from my Dell Streak using xda premium
you cant do much since the ram is embedded into the motherboard..
You can try _nop_s kernel, and enable swap using swapper, but to be honest, there is plenty enough ram.
A better way to manage ram from the off, would be to use something similar to Autostarts and manage After Startup items, many can be disabled, you will need a rooted phone, this can save significant ram from when you start your phone.
For normal use the ram is ok
But for some good games this fone prooves to b laggy

Sure, quite possibly, its an old os. My streak is dead, I have a N7105 now. If there were the drivers and Jelly Bean was a reality, you would have a lag free life, I am sure.
Yes....
All we can do is to wait for ics or jb:what:

Yup,... I would agree with you... I'm also still waiting for a stable fully functional ICS or JB ROM for my DS5. Still loving my DS5, not willing to change yet, still using it on daily basis.
I saw on the Development Forum Section, there are a few kinda ICS ROMs, but it's label as pre-alpha, beta, etc...with some notes on certain functions not work or partial works or works on some DS5.
I would continue reading and understanding what going on, plus testing other stable ROMs listed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5/ROMs , before trying out those new ROMs in the Development Section I guess, just to be on the safe side.
one ics rom is fully functional except the camera
so if you dont need camera you can go for it
i personally have tried it..... no camera but great rom

[Q] RAM Expansion??

I'm just wondering if there is any way to expand the amount of RAM on my Galaxy Ace 2. I have Jelly Bean installed

Not physically, but you can go from round 400mb ram to 600 if you install JB correctly. There are pro's and con's of this though from reading around the place.
Ps. There is a Q & A section for a reason.
RAM Swap
I am not sure, but i guess u can use ram swap to do this. Google it!
AFAIK we have no kernel that supports SWAP at the moment.
BTW I find SWAP unnecessary since we have a lots of RAM.
dont know about RAM, but for Swap, i use it

D-kernel should be able to... And mind you, you are using the L variant if im not wrong. Who says its not possible. And we have enough ram for normal usage. But gaming? You'll need at least a Gig of ram...

Yep, my mistake, D-Kernel supports SWAP. But in my opinion SWAP doesn't bring any noticeable improvement. You would need a high class SD card an it will always be slower than RAM.
And I don't think that phones in general are good for gaming. But that's just my opinion.
