I have tried googling this question but some websites say 192 and other 288??
so if anyone with an ion can comfirm this it would be great as im thinking of getting one with 288Mb Ram....

Is there a massive diiference in performance between a phone with 576 mb ram e.g htc desire and a phone with 512mb ram eg. the google nexus one?
thanks

The only difference is that you get 64MB more RAM to hold a handful more applications in the background. The performance difference is only going to be appreciable if the applications that are being let go in that 64MB "buffer" take a long time to load up.
I've read before that they are identical, just reported differently.
512Mb RAM + 64Mb baseband.
Pretty sure I read it on here, but could be wrong.
Dont matter as the current kernels wont see more than appox 400 MB

+1, and it's written in many places.
Yeah, the Desire doesn't have any more memory than the Nexus One. They just report it differently.
My friend just got his phone from unlocked mobiles, i am still waiting for mine from Handtec... argh... but i just got him to check how much free memory he had from looking at advanced task killer and he only had 37MB free!!? Got him to kill everything and he only got about 130MB free in total.
Can other people check theirs to see, because its looking like the same problem that happened with the nexus one where only 256MB of the 512MB RAM was available to use, until they upgrade it to Froyo 2.2 or change the kernal to allow for Hi Mem support.
rubbish if they havent sorted this!
anyone?
ya.. its the same because of the limitation in 2.6.29 kernel not the phone. More reason to bug Samsung to upgrade to froyo or root the device
Yeah i don't think they've fixed it, ,my phone only reports about over 100 meg free.
where do you go to see memory available?
122m Avail. memory using adv task killer.
bugger, i thought they would have at least sorted out the kernal to support himem. if XDA developers can do it for android 2.1 then why cant samsung! very lame and annoying as I have seen my friends phone slow down quite a few times now.
I flashed froyo JPD + voodoo lagfix and my RAM manger shows
191 / 304 MB.
I choosed level 1 and 2 and clean memory, now it is using 144 MB.
I guess it is supposed to show 512 MB.
If I kill everything, 142M free (stock JVK). I used to be able to get ~170M free with JPY...
I'm of the, sometimes controversial, opinion that unused RAM is wasted RAM though and don't really care how much is free - as long there's no lag!

I have same opinion. We will never see 512mb ram available, as someones may think..we HAVE 512mb ram, but due technical issues, it won't be all usable for us..and as a linux based system, it's good to have mem full as possible. Generally speaking...
There is many topics about ram in xda..with lots of information..

As far as i can remember, we don't see the whole 512 mb RAM (or at least 400+) because of PowerVR GPU, which reserves a lot of ram for itself.
Hi,
I had and still have a Kaiser. Played a lot with the Android on that phone.
I now have a HTC Wildfire and I started having some questions.
The roms for the Kaiser are somewhere in the line of 80 to 100 mb, and they use about 80mb of the 101 ram it has.
The custom android roms on the wildfire have somewhere in the line of 130 mb or more, and leave me with 60 to 90 mb of ram of the advertised 384 RAM.
So, to cut to the chase, is there someway a kaiser rom to be ported on the wildfire, having in mind that the kaiser rom is developed for weaker hardware? I reckon that will show a increase in performance.
Thank you, and also thanks to all of the developers around here making the kaiser be head to head with the G1. Even after getting this new phone, I watch with affection my kaiser how it sleeps waiting for me to play with it once more .
What is the RAM on a HTC HD7? The Device Info application reports 474.57 MB and the Phone Info app returns 475 MB. The actual specifications list 576 MB what happened to the remaining 101 MB?
Guys please report how much RAM (memory) is being shown on your devices.
Thanks in advance
Im sure the 474 is what is available

android hasnt been ported to HD7
According to System View, it's 512MB for the device Ram.
Currently mine is showing 463MB free. Obvious like carmeng4evr said, it all depends on what's running.
The hd7 has 576mb ram and the missing ram is dedicated to the GPU. That's why it shows a lower amount.

Unless only the tmobile version has 576, like the hd2.

android ram
yes I know that some amount is used to GPU(128MB), I too have t-mobile HD2 with 576MB and in android it shows just 412MB can be used(screenshot attached below), was just pondering on how much does it show in android Task manager in HD7S, Desire HD(768MB) or in HTC Incredible S(768MB).
android taskmanager screenshot showing total ram
on the specs, it says GS1 has 512mb of RAM. I know android OS takes space phone it self blah blah so we only get to use 3xx mb of RAM. but then usually half (if not more) of the 3xx mb of RAM is already filled!
before, (back in eclair & froyo days) android 2.3 will allow us to utilize ALL 512mb but ****, now even more RAM is in use..
also
someone told me Nexus S who has exact same specs as GS, can use ALL 512mb...
so is there a way to use all 512mb of RAM? or at least more than 329mb?

You do use all the RAM, Android users shouldn't be worried about RAM as it is good to be used... Now Samsung's excuse for updating the GS1 to ICS is bull. but the reason you get 329 MB of RAM is because that 183 MB of RAM is for the system and cannot be given to the user. There are some kernels that offer like 344 MB of RAM(for Froyo), but that is it. No more, no less. Can't change it! Sorry bud.
Edit- we always are utilizing all 512 MB of RAM always. And when half of it is filled, that is always going to be there if the phone is turned on as some none system apps and system apps cannot be closed and are needed for the device to function.
I just recently got myself a Samsung Infuse, really like the phone. One thing that really bugs me is that it appears to be the same as my captivate in terms of RAM and ROM space, yet on my Infuse i get access to 452MB RAM yet on my captivate as stated we only get access to 329MB or 344MB.
Why such the huge difference?
