How to upgrade HTC Universal to 64Mb at 128 Mb

It is very well to make ROMS which supports 128Mb but like updating (at the material level) our HTC Universal?

Have a look at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_128MBRAM and see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281560&page=25.
Basically, you need to get 2 ram chips of 64MB each, and replace the original chips of 32MB each on your universal mainboard. If you couldn't (de)solder the chips yourself, then it's best to find someone who's capable of doing it. At the moment, it's only reported it works with the g3. I haven't heard anything confirmed yet on the g4, though it was said that it should work fine. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=348567&page=2)
Best.

Thanks for this information

upgrade from 64 to 128
i've read the procedure on how to upgrade uni ram from 64mb to 128mb...problem is where to get d 64 2X ram??? can anyone tell me where to get the chips and how much?? Your help is highly appreciated.

Where To Buy Ram Chips
Here is the link on where to get the ram chips http://octomobile.isl.hk/index.php?...ducts_id=300&zenid=fevcerl32hgjpk8hdv7tb0uqv7 Just make sure you have a G3 device. If you don't will not work with G4 Univerisals.

pictures / specs?
Due to high international shipping costs and customs fees here I would like to shop for the RAM modules locally.
Can anyone provide detailed specs for the required RAM chips? (Manufacturer, Product Number or at least Type, Timings, Form Factor, Voltage Ratings etc.?
A high resolution image might do the trick, too
Thanks guys, you're the best!

Have a look here...
These are the chips you need :

Then have a look in the wiki :
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_128MBRAM
Though that said I'd have a look at the upgrade forum and read through the ram upgrading thread...

[Q] NxS: 512 MB or 512 "Samsung Megabytes"?

I guess, that it should be 512 MB RAM, video memory excluded... any factual info?

it should be exactly the same as the Galaxy S phones so if you look that up you'll have your answer.

The Galaxy Tab is(was) advertised as being equipped with 512 MB RAM... just (un)like the SgS family.
I would appreciate factual answers - preferably with screenshots - instead of generic blah blah.

I would like to know this as well.
How much of visible RAM is there on the nexus S?

346MB is visible to userspace (MemTotal in /proc/meminfo).
The hardware has 512MB of ram which is shared between Linux, carve-outs for the a/v hardware, the baseband, and shared memory between the baseband and Linux.

May the sensation have 1Gb "hidden" of ram?

Ok first of all, i'm OK with the 764MB of ram, actually.
But it's good to know if there is any posibility, of having a 1GB of ram, because there is a lot of phones, with a hiden ram.
Xperia X10 is suposed to have 256, but really have 320, HTC HD2 442mb, 512 real, and other phones with "hidden ram" so, maybe our sensations have 1GB but it's hidden, or unabled!!!
What do you think? there is any way to know that?
thanks

Yes it is possible, like with rom, officialy it is 1GB, but it is 4GB ! 3GB is hidden for system, updates, etc. With s-off and root we could change this. Also in case of ram: 768 is not popular, ram chips are 0,25, 0,5; 1, 2 usual, I dont understand why htc rask manager shows 556 MB (100-180 free), but android running apps shows different number (280-300 MB free)... someone would need to disassemble sensation and look on chips numeration....

Maybe have FM transmitter, and other unabled features!

We do have an FM radio.

Ohhh, yeah that would be pretty cool. I've used after market ones, but I wasn't aware that any phones included that built in.

While chip is definitely 4gb, it has been formatted to reduce capacity but increase speed. No, you will not get 4gb out of it no matter what you do, once it's formatted that way - there's no way back. There are no "hidden" partitions, nothing is reserved for future updates or any other BS like that.
Ram memory is definitely 768MB. While it's not the most popular size, it has been used before (MyTouch 4G, Incredible S, Desire HD to name few). You will not see all of it in any task manager because 100+ MB is reserved for stuff below OS level (radio, gpu, etc) which is absolutely ridiculous but that's the way HTC does things.
If anyone is wondering, Android's running apps is most likely showing the correct number of free memory.

SGSII with 16Gb is faster whitout that format...

I don't know why you think it are 768MB
SysInfo tells my my Sensation has 1.15GB
See ScreenShot.
And I have round 95 App's Installed

He is talking about the amount of RAM inside the phone, while you're talking about the amount of storage space. 2 different things.

You are looking at disk space (capacity) and they are speaking of RAM (memory).

Partitioned, not formatted. English is not one of my strongest points (second language).
Here's the info, if you're really interested.

G2/Desire Z wiki has simpler explanation.

Faster is not always more reliable but feel free to import one for $800+ and find out.... I'll "crawl" with my "slower" sensation and half of grand in my pocket. And yes, I'll envy you because I do like SGS2, just don't think it's worth that much with very little known about warranty and such....

Bacause they offer the same sime site for a bunch of mobiles, espesially in cases that the "offered" conent can't be found on teh internet but only there. E.g. update phone's to lollipop that never will get such an update, not now and not later. Its just about clicking their links to let them earn money but they'll never provide what they tell you. On the bottom are ALWAYS exact 3 feedbacks. "Working great". I landed there a couple of times while googeling things for xda
BUT feel free to do whatever yoh like I really wan't to between you and your luck ...

OK thanks for the post, me too it seemed unrealistic, because Android 5.0 Lollipop has a minimum 1 GB of RAM, a Sony Ericssson Vivaz, has 256 MB RAM 512 MB ROM.
In that case, I reiterate your request. What tool (program) or another way, maybe some code I can unlock the bootloader in the Sony Ericsson Vivaz, to install another Fimeware, with another system, such as CyanogenMod Android?

Android runs well with 512MB ram thats not the point. BUT you can't run android on it. The phone is made for a totally different OS. You won't even get android compatible hardware drivers or anything else AND the phone's hardware won't be able to run android at all.

My friend has a Nokia N8, which also originally, has on board Symbian, which has put CyanoMod Android version 2.2 or 2.3. The Nokia N8 has the same amount of RAM 256 MB and 512 MB ROM, the same amount as the Vivaz. Differs only capacity onboard memory, the N8 has 16 GB, the Vivaz is on drive C, 77 MB, and on drive D 148 MB, it is still hard. N8, processor ARM11 680 MHz double-pumped, the Vivaz is a ARM8 Cortex, clocked at 720 MHz. Vivaz sees memory card micro SDXC 64 GB, no problem. I currently have a memory card 32 GB Micro SDHC card.
I very kindly asking you for help, how to unlock bootloader in Sony Ericsson Vivaz?
Please tutorial, how it can be done, maybe it is possible to install CyanoMod Android, on the memory card, as it would have been enough space in the phone memory.

I CAN'T find anything about Nokia N8 and Cyanogenmod. You must be wrong. All in all its like that:
Community roms need a community and people who develop and maintain the roms, which regulary are people who own and use the phone themselves. No one will on request start a development (for free) that may take weeks or month if he has no benefit from it. Your phone might still be solid but its technically outdated. And there is and there will be no android for it. If you want to use android, go for a second hand phone.

Nexus 5 D821 RAM Upgrade to 4GB

My Nexus 5 has always full Storage and it p****s me off. I searched for Storage Upgrade posiibiloties and found a thread from a dude upgrading his storage to 64gb. So i decided to try that to with an spare nexus 5. I also found a post about nexus 5x users upgrading their ram to 4gb. So I researched and found out that the Nexus 5 uses the "H9CKNNNBPTMRLR-NTM" RAM-Chip.
It says that it has 216-ball fbga socket and i searched for similar chips with 216-ball socket with more capacity. Since the snapdragon 800 is a 32-bit chip it'll "only" support 4gb ram. I found the "H9CKNNNBPTATDR" and need to know if it has the same pinout as the "H9CKNNNBPTMRLR-NTM".
I cant find enough information about the chips and contacting the Manufacturer doesn't work for me :crying: (cant register somehow)
Hope you can help me

Count me in!

I don't have any answers for you, but if an extra nexus 5 would help you experiment, let me know. I have many of these devices and obviously the ram is a huge bottleneck, especially running 7 or 8 ROMs.
Also, you may get more action on the dedicated Nexus 5 subforums on this site.
Good luck!

An extra nexus 5 would be very nice. Where are you from and what do you want for it?
On ebay also the defectives are way too expensive. Like >30€
I'll try to put the thread into the nexus subforum! Thx!
