Sprint Touch Pro 2 Memory Usage

snooprob40 · #1 (**permalink**) 02-04-2010, 09:55 PM

I'm on Sprint and noticed that although my task manager shows nothing running, after I use programs and close them out there seems to still be high program usage because the memory % is still high. It appears that there are "ghost" programs running in the back ground. Is there a way to kill these programs completely even though they're not showing up on the task manager list?

Secondly, is there a way to soft reset the phone without taking the cover off and pressing the button with the stylus every time? Thanks!

Clean ram works fine. Never had an issue with it. Search out a soft reset app on this forum. There are a few to pick from.

cleanram can do scheduled soft resets, which I have done for a while, and it my phone works great with that. Cleanram only screws up if you are running sense 2.5. Just add manila.exe to the exceptions list, and the problem is gone.
