[Q] How to change program memory to SD Card? - General Questions and Answers

Hi guys, I need your help for my Imate Jama 101, there are 3 kind of memories in my cell phone, one is microSD 2nd is phone memory 3rd one is program memory, my question is can i increase or shift my program memory to SD Card? whenever I use Opera mini & open any heavy website, the program memory rapidly increases & it goes shut down.
Also please tell me is this program memory called RAM? like a Pc's RAM?

answer
hey vickywaqas,
it is indeed possible with some tweaks/hacks to use a micro sd card to enlarge your program memory, which is also called RAM on phones
i dont know about how or what for your i-mate Jama 101 but i found a topic which can be interesting for you: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=472798

Are you new to WM5?
No Dear....but i was thinking that the program memory shown at the memory screen for the program installation....but i found that the paert of Storage is the one where the installed programs go.....so what is the usage of the Program part of the memory and how can i increase the size of the memory allocated to programs installation.
best regards
I've same problem with you. In my xda, I just have 2MB free storage. Maybe anybody can help us to increase our storage

Where to install? Main or storage memory?

Hi Guys,
I have a question..
How can i know what programs i should install to my stoarge memory, and which to install to my main memory? And whats the difference?
Im guessing that i would install important programs direct to main memory right? But because of limited space this can be tough. Heres a list of programs i use. Could someone please advise me which to install to Main memory and which to install to a storage card for max perfromance:
Skype
Netfront 3.3
Opera
Agile Messenger
MemMaid
Resco Explorer
TCPMP
Broken Sword (Game)
XCPU Scalar
Thanks for the help guys!
Which device do you have?
If it's a Windows Mobile 5 device, the performance between internal or memory card is minimal. If it's 2003se or older, then performance from memory will be far higher.
Rule of thumb for me is, what couldn't I do without if the memory card popped out and got lost. I put those apps internally.
Also something to consider (on a WM5 device) is that flash memory can only be written to a finite amout of times, so if you have an app that constantly rewrites data (such as NetFront with the cache) then I would stick that on a memory card. It's cheaper to replace a worn out card in 2 years than the whole device. Although I imagine most people on here replace their device within a year to 18 months anyway.

Virtual memory (swap) on SD Card (WM6)

Hello everybody. I want to know if there is a way (a methode or a software) to create virtual memory on the SD Card and use it as RAM memory (like the swap file in Windows XP).I Have a HTC Trinity WM6 with FAMAN 4.03 beta3 ROM.
And thanx
Why would you want to do this? Most memory cards have very low read & write speeds compared to the real ram so it would slow your device down a lot.
I want to play some games that use huge space of ram (such as call of duty 2, syberia 1 & 2 ...)
Just hunt down in the specific forum for your phone and examine the different ROMs available. You might find one that is maximized for high available RAM. With my Wizard i've found ROMs that can range from 20mb free to 30mb free. Just have to do some digging. Good thing that some ROM cooks provide screenshots of the memory settings page so you can see the available program/storage memory available.
Thank you for the reply, i'll do that.. by the way, were can I find a good software to optimize RAM
SKtools
You may want to try SKtools Auto Clean. But don't expect a revolution ...
I did the memory maid test and it said that the system could read and write at 100Mbyte/s having something to do with the SD card, so it must be possible, although the cards external readings where 8 Mbyte/s
you are misreading something somewhere
even the fastests harddisks rarely do 100MB/sec
fast sdcards do 8MB/sec but only in readers
the sd interface of pda's prob can't read more then 2MB/sec
you can bench using pocket mechanics
even though it is not practical i still am interested in using sd card as swap space can it be done? has it been done?
WinMo doesn't support swap concept.
If you are out of RAM, you are out of RAM.

SUCKS!
Titan always has a problem even with the best roms
This is probably off topic, but, where can i find that tweak that speeds up sd card transfer rate, i read about it somewhere but can't find it now.
Search for tnyynt sd card tune-up.

Then reinstall your rom and install all programs on that 1Gb memory and you will be fine.

yes the program memory is the same as RAM. as far ado know there is no possible way to do that. a tip is to close any other running programs when you are using opera. also what WM OS are you on? there are many gerald available to increases program memory depending on your OS.
