Is there a reason you want it to use less? It has 2 GB of RAM and in my experience it never uses it all. So Android has an interesting way of managing RAM but trust it that it will purge the assets when it needs them. If you keep clearing RAM with task managers it tends to drain the battery . And one more thing, TouchWiz uses more RAM than AOSP / AOKP...

from his signature you can see that he is using i9300, an international version that has 1GB RAM
@OP please specify which ROM and kernel do you have

Oops my bad. I use the app which doesn't show the signature. As for RAM, 700/1024 really isn't bad. That still leaves plenty. The OS can handle purging of assets and flushing the RAM

Except the international models only have 833ram available instead of 1024 since I believe the others are reserved for the OS++
nothing need to do

Firstly, it is impossible to increase your physical RAM capacity.
Secondly, empty RAM is useless. Look it up on Google.
Lastly, you could change the OOM values by using a script like V6 Supercharger to increase the minimum free RAM, or you can change it yourself with an app like ROM Toolbox on the Play store.
That actualy is not much ram. But if you are really worried
then get Clean Master; https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cleanmaster.mguard&hl=en
it clears the ram and removes all unnecessary files.

I am sure it works great but it will use extra battery and really isn't necessary. The OS has its reserves and the apps will clear out RAM as its needed ...

I just got my GP a few weeks ago I just rooted to install the whatsapp. But now that i want to expand my ram i just cant do it.. It says that the swap function has been disabled.
PS. I also installed the BusyBox Pro
PS2. Its the american version YP-G70
Hmm, idk. I have never even heard of this app until now, and it seems like an interesting idea. The compatibility checker app says my 4.0 is compatible, but I don't want to dish out 8 bucks on something that might not work.

Im user of SWAPiT Ram Expander...Its awesome app in benchmark you doesn´t see results but in big games (like amazing spider-man) you can see its much more smoother x) I think swapIT doesn´t support any ICS rom, but on GB rom it should run without problem

thx man I made some research and I just need to installa a new kernel that supports swapit
I have chip rom and swapit expander work no problem..this app just saves this device..only problem with this device for me was little ram memory and with this app no lag on any game and no single launcher redrowing since I use this app.

But where can I get a kernel that supports the swapit for the usa version? Because the ones that allow the use of swapit disable my device capacitive buttons because they are only for the international version of the device
is it really worth it? I read that swap memory will reduce the read-write cycle of your sd card. I don't think that it's a good tradeoff in the long run...

Sd card has at least 100 000 writes per sector so even with heavy use of swap it that would be at least 10-15 years (this program swaps process that are not used often and that just use memory for almost nothing) ..your battery would die much much before.And even if it dies you can buy mikro sd card class 10 cheap and make external to be internal.

How can we get this working on the 5.0? I tried the original version of swapper, and I have to say I've never had this little problem with how many programs are running. Usually I close running programs as I stop using them, now I can have facebook, opera, and other memory intensive programs open with almost no slow down in android at all.
the kernel needs to be able to support swap. i don't believe Entropy's kernel does

The device should have 512mb but when im in the task manger i see that there are only 376mb of ram why is it?is it because the rom?because i remember that in the stock rom i got 381mb but now i only have 376mb is the tweaks that i did made that?
Thanks for all the helpers!
I.E
I just saw in the settings that i only have 263 ram(152 used+191 free)so which one is correct?the task manager or the settings menu?
I believe it is like the 8gb of storage and you only get around 5.5gb. Not all the ram is available for use to use, and I think that is for some of the background processes that are running to keep everything stable. I haven't used the stock rom in a while but I know that the max ram you get is 341mb, and yes some of the tweaks you do can increase/decrease ram.

You have 512mb of RAM in total but a certain amount is dedicated to the GPU to render the visuals. ~375 for apps and ~140 for graphics.
You can change how much is dedicated by doing what is called ramhack. But i don't know if its possible on the players. Search before making a new thread about it.

Did you read the settings wrong? Or its just messed up? I think that it meant 263mb of RAM was in use atm. So you would have ~110mb free (or the opposite).

No i read it fine,i upload some pictures so you will see.
Take care that the screen shot app should not be working in normal use so there should be in there 5-7mb more.
Anyway as u can see the task killer show different size of ram and the running apps shiw different size of ram....

That 125 is used by the OS and programs and process you see on the list.But android in setting does not show all ram used..he lies a little and always show more free ram then any other app reports.

RAM manager, in my opinion, is better than Supercharger. It makes my phone smooth on ICS and JB

One solution is that dont install too many apps and uninstall/freeze unused system apps..
I use Ram manager too, in Balance mode i have 40-50 MB of free memory, on MiniCM7 2.0.7 ROM and 30-40 MB free, on GingerDX v029 ROM.

Hi,
you can also try for
1. Memory Booster - RAM Optimizer ( with out Rooting ) or ES Task Manager ( they are just Task managers ) but can help you to free up the more RAM. you can also use auto kill fuctions of these apps.
2. uninstall unwanted apps , will surely speed up the phone
3. if you are rooted your phone, you can use ES task manager to disable some unwanted startup applications
other methods like Superchanger needs some more knowledge of memory handling ,like reserving memory for apps like home to reduce the redraws etc.
Cheers!

The amount of RAM available depends on the base Android and its system functions. These are hidden to the users.
For example, most JB ROMs have more RAM available, because 720p HD video recording has been disabled.
For RAM, I use Greenify big help for apps like Facebook, Maps and others

My Galaxy S2 are often using more than 80% of the RAM. That makes the phone runs very slow. When I clean it up, it will get back to the high level after a few minutes. Anyone knows why would that happen? What should I do?
Free RAM is wasted RAM. If the total resident size of the apps you have installed is slowing your device, your only option is to uninstall some of those that insist on running all the time.

This. Any further discussion beyond this is absolutely pointless.
You can to search app ,which take free ram in: settings/apps/runned ,and uninstall it ,if possible.
Does it pose problems on usage of other apps?
If yes, you can try greenifying the culprit apps which are always in cache or are running.
