hi everyone...
i was told about something new today... and it is so great!!! I have to highlight it.. so others can see it too.
I have a Hero CDMA, rooted, AOSP Froyo ROM and always having memory issues. Low memory.. makes my hero sluggish. I have tried many other ROMs too.
I was told about Firerat Memory custom MOD. it was initially designed for the G1. And Foo_Blyat over on XDA tried it on the HERO and it worked.
how it works...
there are 3 areas that use up the Memory that the phone has: internal Storage, System storage, and cache.
the phone just splits memory for the 3 parts:
storage 190 mb;
systems 170mb;
cache 130mb;
I installed Quick System Info so that I can see what I have:
It says that my phone has...
system storage:
total 170mb; free 101mb
System Cache:
total 130mb; free 120mb
this free space is wasted space!!!!!! nothing can use it!!!
Firerat was able to combine all the wasted space into the storage memory! WOW!
I started with 45 mb free with all my apps loaded.
NOW I have 255mb free. no kidding!
[MOD][RECOVERY] Firerat's Custom MTD Partitions (resize Data,System and Cache) - xda-developers
i wanted to share this with all of you... so you might want to try this on other devices that have small memory issues. Of course I would recommend a Dev.. look into it first for each device.
I am very happy with it.
good luck!
