RAM usage (Stock 4.2.2) - Samsung Galaxy S II Plus

Hey guys!
I'm using stock 4.2.2 for a week almost. Flashed it with Odin, absolutely no problems.
The rom works fast, smooth and the battery life is great ..
BUT
My phone is using about 500-600 RAM and that leaves me just about 250(+-) free ...
Is this normal? And if not, what coud be the problem?
The phone is not rooted but I think if i root it and get rid of all bloatware ram will be released.
Here are the apps installed by me:
Facebook
Ebay
Lookout
Livescore
Messenger for FB
MX player
Shazam
Skype
WhatsApp
Clean master
Blackmarket alpha
Sine Mora
Advanced Task killer
Real Racing 3
Juice defender Ultimate
WiFi File transfer PRO

So, you are saying that this RAM consumption is totally normal?

Um, I used supercharger V6 on my LG L3 E400 ( :laugh: ) and I remember that i needed to flash it with CMW. Is the procedure the same with SGSII+ ? How can i supercharge my phone?

Jajaja I have an lg e400 no isn't the same. Just google it and find the official topic on xda. Then follow the instructions. Thats all.. and use the option 5 (multitasking)

With Android, too much free RAM is wasted RAM. You don't really have to worry about it unless you're constantly down to, like, 20mb or something. The way Android manages processes is different from a PC.

as long as ur battery improved,i don't seems to see any problem with ram increased. i have same amount of ram usage as yours,yet playing dungeon hunter 4 not a problem for the device.
like corduroy84 said,free ram is wasted ram,unless you're dealing with battery drain,then u have to debloat/freeze some apps.

I tried supercharger now too
I ran antutu and i got a better 3d graphic performance

I have had installed real racing too and it freezing all the time. I got lag too. Ram was free about 150mb. When I removed it my phone running better. I think is the way you use your phone. If you have a lot of apps installed am totally sure about that you will have lags.

Thank you for all answers guys! I uninstalled some apps I don't use and my RAM is about 350-400 now So I'm happy with it
Cheers!

Are you using any apps like setcpu, pimpmycpu, antutu? If not, you are already on stock voltage.
If you are familiar with flashing, flash others GB roms from the dev area. See if it still crashes.

im using the app setcpu because before my phone started to freeze after installing setcpu my phone was working great for a long time until now recently that my phone has started to freeze so much. So i must flash with another rom ? or should i unistall setcpu?

It could be that you need to do a factory reset on your phone and start fresh, that could probably fix your freezing problem.
Also you might also want to look into updating your phone to LG's official 2.3.4 ROM, it is much more stable than the 2.3.3 ROM that your on.

GT I9300 RAM usage?

Hi guys probably the wrong place to post this so please tell me if I'm wrong.
I'm currently using my GT I9300 with the omega v44 rom 4.2.1 I feel like I may be using a lot of ram compared to stock.
My ram is currently always around the 500mb mark and always clear cache and memory and keep it nice and clean in terms of unwanted apps.
It would be interesting to see what the others are experiencing and whether they have a custom ROM or stock?

[Q] Lag reducer?

I recently found this app online https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lcis.seeder called Seeder which says that it removes the lag from an android smartphone. The problem is that since I'm on JB and my sdcard is kinda old for now I can't root which means I can't test it.
Is someone here who has tested this app? Is this working ?
thanks!

Issues in Galaxy S2 Plus I9105 4.2.2 Update

I was Updating the firmware via Odin to MG8 but got the NAND write failed error while flashing the sboot.bin file, unfortunately i checked the NAND erase all and got stuck into the boot logo. I then downloaded the 4.2.2 version Russian Update from samsung-updates.com and flashed it via Odin. Everything went right and the phone is alive again.
I was surfing through forums about the 4.2.2 updates and it was all around that 4.2.2 includes performance issues but i doubt that. The firmware is sometimes laggy and even the Benchmarck score has fallen from 11k to 10k which obviously is not a good thing after a "performance" update. Apps seem loading slowly but every other thing is fine. There were also sayings that the TouchViz will create some issues with 4.2.2 update and that the Galaxy S2 Plus I9105 is the first Galaxy Device to get this update.
Anyone of you experiencing some same? and if any developer know some bug fixes please do contribute...
I have no problem with the 4.2.2 rom. Still on MG8. Was the first build that came out. But first think i do was root and debloat the stock rom. And i also install xtreme core and xtreme booster. Very good work for ram management like v6 supercharger but easier to use. So every time i have used only the half of ram. That means the device is very responsible and snappy. And battery live allways over 3 days. (Not so many 3G use, or music, most use it like a PHONE)
Sent from my GT-I9105P using xda app-developers app
there are issues with some apps, force closing on facebook and facebook messenger... RAM is doing good in 4.2.2
MG8? That's only for the P version. Lucky you it didn't hardbrick your phone, mate
No issues with the Russian MH4 for me. In fact, the 4.2.2 totally eliminates the slight laginess I had with 4.1.2. Battery life is definitely better.
I don't care about benchmark scores as it doesn't reflect real life usage but according to a thread here, users have posted about their scores increasing compared to 4.1.2.
But, like digitaliban, I am rooted and I've debloated a lot of preinstalled stuff.

i soft brick the phone while flashing MG8, i then flashed MH4, it is causing some problems....
Sorry man that you flash MG8 it is only for P Version. I don't check that you are on non P Version. Flash again with the right rom for your device. I hope it works for you.

Same as freezing but you uninstall completely. Via Titanium Backup or Root Uninstaller. Or you could just use a root file explorer and go to system - > app and delete the apks and odex of the stuff you want to remove. A lot of the Samsung stuff run at boot, so it does make a difference removing them. Otherwise, just freeze them.

after flashing 4.2.2 again and a reset factory about 250 Mb is missing
it's like the ram thing
web sites say it have 1GB of ram but when you buy the phone it's about 700MB,so what happened to 300MB? "it's used by system" they answer.
OK,but 500MB of this 700 MB is always full.
i don't care about amount of ram as long as my phone works fine and don't know how much is good for better performance and i know these task killers does nothing.
but what is about this 1GB of ram so important?this is not a PC, it runs it's OS or not?
There are quite a lot of write ups you can find explaining how Android manages it's processes and RAM management.

I cant put that feature directly in the rom
since apps are unreliable
but i can make flashable zips for different dpis
It would be nice to have an updated rom for T211 since I saw some people looking for some (including me). Also, we all know that roms for this device are discontinued a long, long time ago.
i see i will make a rom then a working one
since it will be stockbased it will be bug free or hv small problems tht can be solved easily
about updated i dont think i will update whole rom but just some bug fixes by making flashable zips along with some new apps
it will take me some time to start the process
since im very busy with my studies but u can expect it within this week

The infamous tab 3 rom works really well with the blackhawk kernel....The Rom by itself will not run properly,,, boot up is slow and doesn't display the boot animation, various force close issues, but as soon as the kernel is installed, the Rom performs flawlessly(however I have yet to get a nandroid backup as they all fail).....I really would love to see development for this device as a lot of people are going to this phablet because of the cost vs paying for one of the large phones.....this device needs and deserves attention from developers.....I will be glad to test and make donations to further the development of a working 4.2.2 upgrade and further as we are stuck with only one working Rom......
UPDATE : after installing the blackhawk kernel I was able to get a working nandroid....installing the kernel is a must with the Infamous Rom,,,,, it will not run properly without the kernel!

Yo,
I tried infamous but there was a download problem or sumthing it turned out to be an incomplete file
If u can tell me the version u are using...
I can use it as base and remove all the bloat, add some tweaks, add some awesome apps, replace samsung apps , tweak the ui, add a lot of customizabilty, replace the ringtones, add gaming tools,
Rom will be ready with the must have root apps that u install after every rom change etc.
So these things are what i can do
U think tht i should make it?
Or maybe wait for safarikings rom?
