It seems that my phone will sometimes randomly start running out of battery really fast and memmaid shows that the process filesys.exe is taking up the processor at a 100% load. I know that this is part of how windows mobile accesses its storage systems, but I doubt that it's normal. Anyone else having the same problem?
All red items have been uninstalled to see if they were the cause.
I'm running:
Touch-IT full ROM
Battery Status beta 1.04
Default Company Picture Viewer
S2U2 0.5
PocketCM Contacts 0.15
ClearTemp
OP3 ShortCode
FlashVideoBundle
Picsel Browser (Which BTW since installing has made my free space significantly shrink...)
vTap
TRE (reg editor)
memmaid demo
PocketTweak
Pocket Notepad
tGetFile.dll
PocketWeather
HTC Home
Total Commander
psShutXP
Mobile Office
hmm... That list suddently feels a lot longer than it did before. lol
But nothing is running in the background with the exception of ActiveSync.
Thanks guys
Update: Here's a list of what modules filesys.exe has loaded according to Memmaid:
Threads: 24
encfilt.dll
coredll.dll.0409.MUI
ole32.dll
sqlcese30.sys.dll
MSASN1.dll
crypt32.dll

fatsd.dll
cecompr.dll
HtcFsdspy.dll
imgfs.dll
mspart.dll
trueFFS.dll
Fsdmgr.dll
certmod.dll
coredll.dll
Update: It seems that the two coredll's are taking the most resources, but I can't test this out as I don't have any software that can break it down for me, except for abctaskman or whatever it's called and that's only a demo so it won't show me which module is using what other than the other of their CPU usage.
UPDATE: I thought that maybe it was a similar issue to this, but that it was running the compaction on my memory card since I had set the volatile temp to run from that... but that hit a wall as well when I made it run on the main memory again.
UPDATE: I forgot to mention that I also have the Extended ROM enabled as well.
MODS, can we please move this to one of the general forums? I'm not sure which one would be best, though....
OK, so far I've found out that it's a problem not only with this ROM but with WM5 on other devices.
Here is a patch for another device and OS. What I'm trying to figure out is what exactly he patched so we can do the same to our file for our phones.
HI !
I run the German Touch-IT Rom with S2U2 and have the same Problems. Here is what i found out:
- Battery drains in 3-4 Hours IF mortplayer has been started. I usually use Mortplayer to wake me up in the morning. My Music is stored on the SD Card, but this has always been this way.
- I have problems with the batteriy since S2U2 was installed.
-> Maybe Su2u does not suspend our Herald, so that the SD-Card is not suspended, too. Maybe filesys.exe (and with this mortplayer and also HTC Home) randomly ask if the card is still available - Which consumes a lot of power.
...
What do you think ?
I will delete S2U2 when i don´t need the wakeup function this weekend
Hmm... It started around the same time that I added S2U2... I'll try to remove it and see what happens.
I temporarily disabled S2U2 but no change.
Updated with more info.
I hate to bump my own thread, but it seems that updating the thread doesn't bring it up any higher. I wonder if anyone else was having the same exact issue?
I'm determined to solve this problem, as it brings my battery life to a sad 6 hours if the EDGE is on, about 9 hours when it's not. And that's with me underclocking it half the time... and the screen brightness down... and with the phone in "hybernate" or whatever you call the screen being off most of the day...
S2U2 actually did dramatically decrease my battery life... Uninstalling fixed it. Just thought I'd say that; I don't know anything about your other issues, sorry.
I have the same problem too on a mda vario (wizard) with wm6 rom(Dutch version) more info about the rom: http://cleanimport.xda/index.php?threads/350255/
I have been searching around for a solution. But I could not find one.
Here is my list of the modules filesys.exe has loaded according to Memmaid:

Does anyone have found a solution for this problem?
whixh general??
there is "development and hacking" or "modifying and upgrading" i´m also NOT sure
S2U2 has also caused a battery drain on my wing as well. As i am sure it is the #1 reason my wing will crash (lock up) then when i reboot the wing it freezez permently on the password screen. i have tried numberious soft resets. with and without the microsd in... eventually i have to hard reset!
all applications that is running on your homescreen is consuming battery, because its constantly loaded in memory.
If you want a battery that last long, you need to remove sd-card, htc home, cube, touchflo, point-ui or w/e you use to make your device look cool.
you can put it this way, the more stuff you have, the more cool stuf you have, the faster is your battery draining. Ofcourse you can run BS and set up your device with tweaks and w/e, but in the end it all comes to what you want, lasting battery or a "cool" looking device.
In my personal rom, I use htc home, I like it. I use actionscreen and random acces. I have BS to configure battery usage, I deleted EVERYTHING that I dont use in the rom, and yes, it last way longer then fully or moderate loaded roms, but im sure if I kept only basic os, i could prolong battery with a day or two, but I dont need that. I have a device that is compatible to run so many cool things, and I have it because of the many features.
If you can figure out what you want to use in a daily basis, and you can manage to stay away from the heavy eyecandy-stuff (wich you keep to impress your friends) then you can have a longer batterylife
hi guys,
i had the same problem with S2U2, but since i use the cpu-scaler in battery status it's ok.
My battery lifes 3-4 days.
My settings from cpu-scaler: 130 - 201 - 234 without boost.
so i hope this will help you to cause your problem.

3-4 days!? is that with no data usage, no talking, pretty much letting ur phone just sit on the table? because the ABSOLUTE most i can get is 1 1/2 days. That sounds a lil too extreme...
did someones try filesys patcher from aximsite?
i'm using gprs over bt always on, a2dp (3-4hours daily), ~50 sms, opera mini and mobilegadu (im) and after 20hours i still got ~40% on this battery and this unit. i had another herald earlier and it was not possible to have 12hours without charging...
and btw - ive got s2u2 running all time and after it is cooked into rom its not using so much energy..
but a2dp draining more battery than on other devices (wizard, universal...)

no, i uses my phone every day for 20min calling, 30sms and 1 hour gprs internet.
I used to have O2 Neo as my device, and when I tried to install "some apps from HTC rom", I notice a warning about battery drain bug of HTC Camera from some mods and admins in another forum.
Now I owned a HTC P4350 and have HTC Camera as defaul camera app on ROM. My battery always drains above 100mA or even 300mA . Do you think that it's caused by the HTC Camera appplication ? any idea how to remove it from ROM ????

Hello
Here the same. After I uninstalled S2U2 the battery was longer full.
Regards, Tommy
I seem to also have a problem with S2U2 on the LGKS20. Its a pity because its not just eye candy - its the only app I ever found that prevents accidental answer etc.. I also had massive battery drain with SPB mobile shell. bummer
Hi, My Diamond seems to have memory leak issue.
I soft reset my device, the memory is 55% but after a activesyn the memory become 60%. If i open any program, the memory go up and will not release after the program is closed.
Any solutions?
Same solution as with any PC? Reboot.
My Diamond has been up to 70% memory, without any programs running.
This is why i think the RAM of Touch Diamond is not enough.
didn't run anything, but still got 65% or higher RAM usage. even with a Lite rom.
it sucks.

Make sure the application is closed, rather than minimized. Minimize an application has the benefit of being able to re-start quicker the next time. Closing (quiting) the application has the benefit of releasing the memory, if not all.
this is a WM6.1 issue not your diamond.
Guys, are there any tools which can let us check which applications or processes are occupying memory?

What programs do you have that wont run on 35% free ram?
even with 72% usage you still have over 30 megs free!
I have never had a problem running an app on my Diamond due to lack of ram.
How often are you seeing the "Not enough available ram" message?
Jules
Yeah I get the same sort of problem to,
Throughout the day, connecting my Diamond to my laptop at work, use activesync, update the weather, sending texts and also looking at pictures on my phone, and playing the occasional game, my memory will get to about 65% free.
Yes I can continue to use my phone, and its not a major problem but its a niggle that could do with being sorted.
When the memory usage gets to 70% I then Soft Reset the Device as this always speeds it up.
It is the best Windows Mobile phone ive owned, and I use the Soft Reset function alot less on my Diamond than I have before.
However it would be nice to own a Diamond without having to Soft Reset it so often. The memory leak issue needs to be fixed Microsoft!!!!!!! Take note!

When your diamond is with 70% or higher ram usage, try to play a song and then open the opera or IE, they will lag your music. You still think 30MB ram is that much?

Yip just did that
Memory was on 79% with Icontacts and Second Today Phone Alarm and Pocket Breez running
Started a song in Manila Music (Korn YAY!!!) listening on A2DP via my Plantronics 855 then opened a web site in Opera. as Opera was opening the song jumped twice for a split second and then played fine. I surfed a few sites and skipped songs using the headset controls all without problems Then I took a call and had one on hold all without a hitch, after I ended the second call the music started up again and I opened a new website
By now the memory was at 88% and it still worked fine.
Don't know if its the Rom I'm using (Shine On 1.5) but my device seems to cope with its ram with no problems. Even with only 13megs free ram Manila was as responsive as with 40megs free.

From what I've read in other posts here I see that the average memory use is about 30-40%. Well mine is at 77%, with only Gyrator2 running in the background, and without 70%. I have the newest Aztor ROM, but even before, with the original ROM the memory use was the same as now.
Is there something wrong with my hardware and is there something I could do to lower the memory use?
try nataly rom. try kitchen tree too. around 70mb free!
Percentage memory use will depend on which ROM you have installed. Also some ROMs have a bigger page pool and so have less RAM available. These sytems will then show higher percentage used, even with the same number of MB free.
How much?

Where did you get this figure from? (30-40% memory usage!) - I've tried pretty much every ROM in this forum (and few stock ROM's too), and I've never had mine below 60% after soft-reset. You may be thinking about Touch Pro, which has twice as much RAM! If anyone can show me how to have 30-40% RAM usage, please spill the beans! (Not that I've ever needed anymore RAM. I leave alsorts running constantly on my device and I've never had a 'low memory' warning.

As above - load (just for test) Nataly Rom, and after start, with tf3d you'll have 47-49% EASY...
My memory use at startup is normally below 50% but I'm not using a ROM with TF3D... I'm running SPB Pocket Plus and TouchPal (which uses about 3MB but well worth it.)
Use can drop below 40% if I disable the HTC dialer and use the standard WM one instead.
So I guess as long as no warnings pop up, I don't have to worry?
My memory shows 52% after soft reset regardless of what I have installed onto it. After using RSS, Internet and Email it hits over 75% and becomes very slow. I can kill these apps and get down to about 60-65% so I generally just soft reset after this and I'm back to 52%. This is with stock Orange UK 1.93 ROM.
Just did a soft reset on my Diamond with the stock Sprint ROM and TF3D running. Only active task in the pull-down is Activesync and I'm at 31%
After a soft reset my memory is 47%.
I have a clean boot though but it runs various system programs like Touch Response, probably not much of a difference but I guess I could get that percentage lower.
I also deleted every shortcut in the startup folder in windows, it doesn't give any noticeable problems (yet).
The startup programs were:
AutoShortcut.ink
HTC StartUp.ink
poutlook.ink
After some usage the memory usage climbs to 50~60%. I don't use the Internet browser at all.
Something strange though, some games like Flux Challenge wont run smoothly (when using touch control of your race ship) after a soft reset. Even when my memory is at 50~52% it wont run too smooth anymore...
Does anybody knows what these startup programs do anyway???
Just did a soft reset and my memory is at 62% with WLAN turned off, not much difference when I have Gyrator2 on in the background. Though as soon as I start a application like the album, it jumps up to 80-88%.
When i startup i have about 45-50%. When doing alot of things, i never come higher than 75% or something....
Do you use the newest ROM?

After removing my Startup items I am still at 51% after soft reset so it hasn't made much difference (AnswerKeysDisabler, AsyncKiller, AutoShortcut, batti, HTCStartUp, poutlook). After this I disabled TF3D and soft reset gave me 44%. I find TF3D and some of those startup items are too useful to disable and if I did disable TF3D I would need to add today items which would probably bump it back up to about 48-50% anyway.
EDIT: Just found this option in Opera to clear disk cache on exit and it has helped a bit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3009554 or you can redirect the cache which may be better: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2791743
I've got arround 47 - 49 %. Sometimes around 55% but when i wait i few secs, it drops to 47 -49 % again. I used the Diamond Tweak to disable the Diamond Phone Pad. So right i have the default windows phonepad.
I also have Memmaid installed. And tweaked the system with this tool.
Also i configured memmaid to kill every unusable processes at 12:00 h.
So all day long i have a fast system.
I use the latest HTC NLD rom (2.03)

I heard about ClearTemp and was about to use it until I saw a thread on here saying it had cleared all files off the device including internal storage and the only recovery option was a backup (if one had been done before this happened) or a hard reset. I decided not to take the risk and try to find out where the files were located and delete them manually. (I have only looked for Opera so far but when I get time I'll search for the rest).

I think its normal, it uses 16.3mb in my xperia...
Huh?? Not for me. It takes 2129kb.
Cool eh?
That's defniately not taking up 95% of its ram though, considering it has like 200.48 MB of program memory. Check your programs running, make sure you dont have alot of stuff running, and restart your phone. If it starts up and stays at 95%, youve got a problem. Either alot of apps are opening at the start for some strange reason, or youve got a very screwed up ROM.
im using gttrab's barebone r3.6. very stable.
one thing i noticed was: when i take out storage card, filesys.exe: 7mb.
doesnt ANYBODY have this problem too?
im just running normal stuff, spb shell, voice command, s2u2. thats it....
Hey guys,
Just a general question here. I always installed my programs on the storage card and never the device whenever I had the option but then I wondered is there a difference in terms of speed or anything? Are there certain programs I should be installing on the device and not storage card?
I did a search and didnt find anything.
Thanks
I dont think speed is the problem. I have never encountered any noticeable difference in speed. But I certainly had some stability problems with apps installed onto storage card.

Most of the time the read/write speed from storage card is sufficient to make the app run well from the storage card.
But because the storage card is controlled by a driver the stability can be a problem. I've heard from several sources that an on the storage card installed program running in the background can cause SoD's.
storage card is better for "storage" as applications use the main board memory better...
hmm ok, ill keep that in mind.
My xperia is randomly shutting down by itself for no reason, so Im wondering if thats a problem.
Ill just have it in my pocket and when I press the power button, instead of coming out of standby, it actually starts up.
Sometimes too when it starts up and it shows the sony ericsson screen it will just shut off there too.
Generally I recommend you the following: Don't install system relevant programs onto your storage card. By system relevant I mean all programs that are autostarted or otherwise associated with the os. For example today plugins, programs that replace certain native applictations like messaging etc, task managers...
By following those rules I have no problems at all with unstable applications.
when in suspended mode sd interface is turned off so programs running from there will not run
