Re: [tweak] save 20mb of ram with this simple tweak

From one of the posts in the first link: "For people have free memory concern, care only for how many % free ram, and willing to run the X1 slower. You can save 20mb of ram by removing: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps\P reLoadRes\Module=\\Windows\\PreLoadRes.exe

I'm not sure I'd see much benefit, then. I currently start up at about 54% with TF3D and speedwise the phone is acceptable. Don't do a lot of multi-tasking and when I do it still runs OK. I think NoPushInternet is probably the best mod you can do if speed is your goal.

Re: [tweak] save 20mb of ram with this simple tweak

Has anyone found that these magic fixes ever actually matter that much? I've read about the start menu fix, this one, the 4096 cache limits, the goodthings2life cab where 3 unnecessary services supposedly use up 20% of your free memory. Then there's the magic bullet regedit to give a huge boost to your internet speed. It seems like most of the time there's a catch and they aren't for real (the cache limit thing is better left at 0, auto-managed... the internet thing doesn't really increase total download speed, just number of connections to the same server)...

Can anyone say that they used one of these fixes and gotten results that made them say "Wow"?

Right now the single biggest fix for me: going from sprint stock to mightyrom. No idea which changes are cooked in that helped, but it's really obvious when I scroll a full block of 16 icons with transparency up and down. They go smoothly now, almost as smoothly as a fresh stock rom with only 3 quicklinks. On the stock rom they took a second to respond and scrolled jaggedly.

i used to start up @ around 50, now i start up around 70 i dont think sprint 6.5 has push internet enabled... this reg edit doesnt seem to slow my tp2 either...

i cant say that ive used those fixes besides the internet one... but this one does seem to work. give it a try. i am about to post a reg backup of the preloadres key on the first post or you can make a backup yourself. if a few people can confirm it works for them i will see if i can get someone to make a cab.

Re: [tweak] save 20mb of ram with this simple tweak

It was already gone in my mightyrom, I'm thinking of adding it manually to see if the phone goes slower lol I just wish someone could explain more clearly what it is, what it's doing, and what the possible drawbacks are. I guess they did mention running the X1 slower. What's the X1?
