Re: Question about Sprint VZW Memory diffs
The difference is hardware. Sprint has 256MB of RAM, 32MB of which is reserved for the radio stack. The rest is available to the OS.
VZW has 192MB of RAM, 64MB of which is reserved for the radio.
I have no idea why VZW's CDMA radio on the same hardware needs twice as much RAM - or if it is even using it.
But yes, if taking using a ROM for Sprint on VZW or vice-versa, definitely check the pagepool. My suggestions for VZW go for 6MB for a stripped ROM, 9MB for a medium loaded, 10Mb if you have a lot of HTC stuff, and 12MB if you are really blinged out. 12 is probably the reasonable limit though I know folks running 16. For Sprint, go for zero. That's right, zero. Zero means no limit. The OS grabs as much as it wants. You might run low on memory - if so, revert back to 24 MB or 32MB.
