Available RAM - Huawei Mate 9 Porsche Design Questions & Answers

Hi,
I'm wondering about the available ram.
The phone is supposed to have 6gb but when I close all the apps I get a message saying closed x amount of 3.85gb ram.
Does that mean I only have 4gb available?
Hope that makes sense.
Thanks in advance

Some of the apps are permanently in memory.. Home, keyboard etc... And The more ram you've got the more will be used there ?

Hit the apps key and it should say just above the little bin/trash icon "x.x GB of 6 GB free" telling you memory in use of total memory. Then when you hit the bin/trash icon it then tells you how much memory it freed up and then x.x GB that is now available to use.

(Swiftkey X) using 24MB ram

This seems to be normal but is there anyway to pull it a bit down ? Thanks in advance, because my ram is around 200MB now... I like swiftkey X. But I don't want to uninstall it just reducing the ram usage
did you install any OOOM or tweaks or scrips?
like v6 supercharger?
try it,
it'll work

I have tried to move apps to external card. All I get is The device does not have a real primary external storage,
or the primary external storage is emulated.
Moving app to sd function cannot be supported by this device.
Rom Tool box says the same thing, moving to external not possible on this device.
My internal memory is approx 9GB free my external is approx 18GB free.
It also says system rom: 2.21 GB (297 MB free)
Internal and media: 11.8 GB (9.91 GB free)
I have just uninstall-ed around 20 apps, so I can now update the installed apps without problems.
Now I am going to re-install to see how far I get before it tells me "not enough space".
I have nearly triple the amount of apps on my galaxy S3 and never run out of space.
I just wanted to add. No problems with my 64GB SD card. I have 4500 music tracks on it as well as 4 movies and approx 2000 photos. All work without a hitch.

My ram is only at 46mb-100mb if i'm lucky. it isn't a big deal with the way RAM works. you actually want your ram used rather than free.
use diskusage.
See if my signature can help you in any way.

if you look at silentvistor's sig, it gives good ideas how to reduce background processes. you can also install tb and freeze a lot of the unncessary apps if you are rooted.
i have ran tw and aosp roms, and never had close to that much free ram unless i'm constantly closing out of the apps and killing them. it actually takes more battery to kill and fully reopen an app than it does to have it running in the bg. just get rid of the apps you don't want to use/run in the background.
use diskusage to find big folders, go in there, and see why you have such low memory. if it is stuff you want to keep, get a big sd card and move it all there or use a sd swap script.

[Q] "Move to SD" moves only a small part of a program

Hi,
it seems that "Move to SD" moves only a small fraction of application instead of most of it. I would say it's 40-50 MB max (mostly visible with big apps) .
Can anyone confirm this.?
On my phone with 4.1, when I move to SD, there is usually only a few MB left in internal memory (besides data files, of course).
Here, most is left.
Why is that?
I have 8.4 tab pro with 8GB SDHC card.
Regards,
Chris

I don't know why it does that, but I believe it's normal (I've seen that behavior on many other phones/tablets).
Well, I thougt that maybe it's cards fault.
As it is, it seems quite stupid.
Its different now, and it all depends on the apps/games

It doesn't seem so. The same game "Plants vs Zombies 2" that has over 570 MB in Application section, after moving to SD leaves only a few MB on my HTC phone, but on Galaxy Tab Pro it's 550 MB! Only 25 MB is moved. So it's point-blank useless implementation of "Move to SD".

Free RAM discrepancies

Hello everyone. I have the G4, and I just refreshed it yesterday - so I have very few apps. I downloaded the kdz from a pinned thread here, even though it said it was D, it flashed B or C. But it's OK, it updated to D all on its own.
Anyways, I opened an app and it said I had 500 mb free of RAM, which is fine. But I said "Hmm, I wonder, on a fresh install, what's eating my RAM?" so I went into the Apps in the settings and it said I have more than half my RAM free (1.5gb or so). Here is a screen shot. So then I downloaded another app and it reported the same thing, only 500mb free... I'm very confused.
A. Unused Ram = useless Ram. The more is being used the better (faster) the phone will be/react while using/opening apps.
B. Don't use Ram managers
:good:

Hi, thanks for the reply. But I wasn't complaining about it being used or unused. I'm asking about why my system reports one number, while an app (ram manager or not) reports another. As I mentioned in the OP, I was curious about what I had installed that could be using so much ram that any app reports, but the system doesn't. It's a discrepancy. Not a complaint. I'd just like to understand what's happening and which number is correct. :good:

Don't forget that a lot of memory is also being used for cache. This is something the stock Settings apps doesn't display when opening it.
See for an example in the first image my current memory usage using the stock Settings app, it's stated that approximately 900MB of memory is "free". When using a system tool this would probably result in a different, much lower, number.
That is because of the cached memory. Press the three dots in the upper right and let it also show the cached memory. And presto, there it is, a more "accurate" display of all the memory being used. The value shown now should reflect the aftermarket system tools memory usage as well :good:

It means about 1 gb of apps are setup as cached on fresh install. If you clear them you will get your 1gb RAM back.
question is why do it
https://play.google.com/store/apps/....google.com/store/apps/details?id=sa.ramtruth
What does that report your free RAM as?
Thanks guys, that makes sense, and NOW I can see all the RAM hehe.
There is no reason to do it! Ram is there to be used. I just thought it strange to see on a fresh install with very few apps running to have that little free ram! Haha. Thanks guys!
