Is there any way that I can increase the internal ram in my device?
Are you asking to increase the amount of memory or increase usable internal storage?

Well, I guess you can physically open up the device and solder in some ram.
But on a serious note, our phone has a total of 512 mb of ram, but only about 366 mb of ram available. Apparently this is because 146 mb of ram is needed for the screen. Perhaps it might be possible for someone to make a hack to make this ram accessible? I know such a hack exists for the first android phone, the HTC dream.
Also, there's a thing you can use called swap or whatever. You basically partition off a part of your SD card and you can use that as ram, many people do this with older phones. But it won't be nearly as fast as real ram, due to SD card speed limits.
Anyways, does our phone really need more ram? It runs ICS just fine with 366 mb of ram

I think working some kernel magic you could theoretically borrow some from the gpu but that might make the whole thing unstable if you tried to run some heavy graphics. Still actually an interesting thought
I'm having an average of 150mb free ram on hebmiui ics. That's more than i ever had on gb roms and is quite sufficient.

U can use the swap per app is u got a class 10 Sd card?

I still don't get if you're asking about RAM available for running programs or storage space inside for apps?

ram is 512 about 140 is used between os fucntions eg video audio cell wi fi sound so on so forth . Heres a kicker your device may report more ram used then actually is used. The way android works is it actually borrows memory to make standard os functions work better eg using ram as cache for common used functions. While it looks like this ram is being used. IF a application requires the memory it takes it back. So dont fret You have enough useable ram to run apps with.

It's a special revision of the hardware that Samsung is planning on releasing for Halloween. It looks like some people already got their hands on it though. Most of us have to wait until Oct. 31 or later to get it.
Good one

ram is embedded in the cpu, never going to change.
Then how did the value pack for the Samsung galaxy s give it more ram?

Where did you read that? It may free up RAM but it doesn't give it more. It is hardware. Want more RAM buy a different phone. End of story. lol

Again, the RAM is embedded in the CPU. No way to add more.

why do you have a second partition on your sd card?

Because i created an ext3 partition so all my apps/games are stored there instead of internal or sdcard. With link2sd you can save tons of space by even moving library files,cache files and others from apps that normally take up space on internal storage. Regular froyo apps2sd does not do this and leaves those on internal storage so you would never be able to install as many apps like i do.

I have dual boot on my laptop. I have to restart to boot into ubuntu though, his question seems more like, can you store two os in ram and switch between them. That would be sweet. Especially now that I know about that swapper program that lets you built a virtual ram partion on your ultra class 10 32gig sd : )

This works great on computers but on devices it would be kind of pointless not to mention the amount of memory you would need...still seems cool but I can't imagine the benefits...

It was the same thing he was asking, the other (I give him the benefit of the doubt) thing he also know isn't the best way for a phone ram, yet.

Personally I think it's different enough to make me want to try it. I just don't know if it's $50 better than the Galaxy Nexus.
At least with the Nexus you get a ton of development. But, if I had the money I'd try it out for sure.

Never hit the limit. I don't play a lot of games on this ancient device though either. I have emulators on here for n64, psx, and gba but almost never bother. I have my Xbox for that. Productivity apps don't use that much space.

The hardware cripples any decent games too lol so even if you changed the partitions it won't keep up.
If you want to try and change them, by all means feel free but I don't know many here wanting to risk it. Talk to team rookie someone there may be able to help.
