Low Memory :'(

Ever since I rooted my phone my internal memory has been low. Before the root I had around 85mb with about 40 apps. Rooted with the same amount of apps but have only 60mb left.

Tried everything..cachemate, deleting apps, etc. Any ideas anyone?
 
so you have 60mb left instead of 85, what difference does that make? Is your phone slower? Is it lagging more?

Well I kno when it gets around 40-49mb the phone really starts messing up. My phone doesn't get that low, but it has dipped down to 51mb due to multitasking.

It would be nice to have those mbs back without the worry of hitting that critical stage. Still have some lag, especially when a notification comes thru.

hmm...I think the "danger point" is 20mb, something like that.

Not sure why you've only got 60...did you put a ROM on? I imagine any ROM you put on will take up some memory.

I'm running Gumbo 2.1, and I've got 113mb free. Not a lot of apps added after loading the ROM.

If I'm not mistaken, I'm running gumbo .31 but I could be wrong. I have fresh 1.1, gumbo and setcpu

47 show up in the launcher.

It might depend on how many widgets you're using as well...I've got the bookmarks one, email, small weather, small digital clock, mobile network toggle, wifi toggle, and setcpu widget...that's it. I'm only using 4 out of the 7 screens at the moment, as I haven't really found anything I want to put on the other 3 lol
