Really an awesome app
Modify bubbles
Floating notification and so on
Best thing is that it takes 4 mb ram
Also opens perfectly within 2-3 seconds even when its not on ram

Is there a way to monitor ram on ICS? I know in GB, you can see ram in About phone.
For ICS, that option is gone, is there anyway to monitor ram? Or is there anyway to add it back?
I know there are widgets, but can anyone recommend me a good widget that uses very LITTLE ram.
On ICS I get aroudn 160MB/404.4MB Free
And with browser open and a few application there, I get around 60MB free.

I've been looking for a good system reading widget also. One thing I noticed is all the ram reading widgets I tried doesn't display ram values correctly.

shows you what services are running as well as current RAM usage on the bottom. i usually use 150-200MB. never run out of RAM like on the galaxy s 4g with touchwiz. touchwiz does horrible things to your RAM.

I use "Sense Analog Clock Dark" Widget. It fills the purpose of literally everything that I need on my main screen. It takes up about roughly 23-24 MB of my space. Some of the things that you can utilize with this widget are:
* Clock
* Weather
* System Info
* Next Alarm Info
* Date
* You can also configure the HOUR & MINUTE tab to launch 2 different apps.
Hello, I read this forum daily but not participate very often.
Two days ago I uninstalled facebook because with the latest update its camera process would always stay open in the background, no matter what I did.
Since then my Galaxy R transformed, it is like I got a new phone, there is no UI lag, all aplications' effects work perfectly and fast, apps open instantly etc.
I was really surprised by the difference so I thought to share it with you.
That's Facebook for you , stays in the background so you can receive notifications from them .
You can also try force app close with Settings > Development > Stop app via long-press . Tick that and you can now close any app just by holding the Back button .

No I don't care if you're anti-Apple.
I had completely turned off notifications and synchronization for the facebook app. Most task managers showed it as closed, yet I could see from time to time that it used system resources through BetterBatteryStats.
The thing is that it didn't just use memory, it made any non OpenGL animation on my phone slow.
Opening the drawer of GoLauncher? Slow as hell. Opening the weather of beautiful widgets? Slow as hell. Browsing photos through QuickPic gallery? Slow as hell compared to the stock gallery.
In the stock camera app, whenever I pressed a setting, the transparent menu with the available options would take 3 or more seconds to appear.
Since I uninstalled the Facebook app all these lags are completely gone.
I haven't seen a difference in battery though. It is just like facebook was keeping a hardware resource for itself, not letting other apps use it.
PS. The setting about closing apps with long press isn't available on the stock ROM. I think only CM has it.
Hi All
Any Ideas why my X10 mini takes so long to open apps?
There are no saved sms's and the call log has been cleared.
I've tried two task killers, the do free up RAM for a bit but even then it's still slow.
I've checked and minimised the background tasks I can find.
By slow I mean 3 to 4 secs to open an app, Jorte is an example. The stock apps are affected too.
I'm running CM9.0 and V6 SuperCharger set to multi task
Thanks

Hi,
I suffer from this problem since I've been rooting my Nexus S. I currently use Codename ROM (ICS 4.0.4) but I noticed this on every ROM I tested... and Apex Launcher.
I do the factory reset, flash the ROM, stuff, kernel (Matrix 20 CFS) and restore my apps backup. The phone works great, fast and smooth for two days with cca 150MB free RAM and then asůdlfkjaslůdfjasůdlfj!!!!! EVERY TIME it gets laggy with little freezing moments and black screens after 1,5 or 2 days - Free RAM 50-60MB. In this period I do not install any new apps! It is not horrible but it is really frustrating when I know that other people after 4.0.4 update feel really smooth and apps are loading almost instantly. This is laggyish, freezing animations in some apps (any.do, go sms), I am waitign for "multitasking screen", waiting also for contact popup (sometimes even 5 - 15 sec!!). I know that some people have over 100MB RAM all the time and even though Nexus has only 512MB RAM their phones work fine.
I am desperate. Where and why the fu*k has the 100MB of RAM gone?
Currently I have in my kernel settings Deep Idle off, 100-1000MHz and governor "ondemand". I am also using haptic feedback. In past I tried using ROM Toolbox and Auto memory manager to get it better, in fact it wasnt better for me.
Here is my app list (Bold my tips for slowing down?):

If you have some advice/tip/experience, pleeeaaase, post it here. HELP!
What is your must have apps to speed up the device ?
For me first of all. The SMS app TEXTRA, is really amazing..and really make messaging fast on Mate 7, it is not heavy on the gpu or cpu, fast pop up notifications.
Pop UP notifcations also work well in Locked mode so even if your device is in lock screen you do not need to unlock the phone you can also reply quickly in the LOCK SCREEN WITHOUT using the finger print scanner...
Second MUST HAVE app is C notice, brings superior multi tasking functionality to Mate 7.
Unfortunately this app is not free but it cost..not much..
Third QuickPIC, and other absolute must have app for the mediocre performing phone Mate 7.
With QuickPIC it will load pictures WITHOUT lag and very snappy and fast.
I have tried must gallery apps out there and QUICKPIC is really the ONLY one that is fast
enough that it does not lag on this device. Try it and you will see the difference.
These 3 APPS will make your device feel more faster and mordern.
Besides this of course I do not need to bring up again the importance of chaining the animations speed
in developer options set it to .5x
Great app I've been using is App Swap. It's a brilliant substitute for not having an App Drawer or (even if you're using an alternative launcher) just for getting to your app drawer without going home first.
It basically allows you to swipe up on the circle home button to open your app drawer.

I will try that, any specific settings you find it important to use ?
And please tell me, what is the main reason one cannot live without this app ?
Is it that "google now" swipe thing that is a must ? for instance if you inside a app lets say KIK
you can swipe to get to the apps more quickly ? ¨
Besides that I am not sure I see a point of it, besides that you can swipe thru a lot of apps more faster not needing to go thru many sides..
If you are rooted, you can get governor tweaking apps like Trickstermod. Set-up "Performance" as your governor and make the phone's governors ramp up to max frequency when running tasks eliminating lags at the expense of a bit of battery life. But if you don't really play a lot of games the battery trade-off won't be that big.
I want to add the app twilight to the list.
