Noobie needs help with low memory on PPC6800

[ALBOWSKI]

Hey bimer guy, the problem is that the mogul doesnt have 256mb of ram, it only comes with 64 mb, the touch has double that but doesnt have a keyboard, wifi, or flash for the camera(which are deal killers for me). there are plenty of mogul vs touch threads on here, just search and you will find plenty rather passionate (if not ridiculous) arguments for and against both devices. As far as I know there is no way to "adjust your storage memory to allow for more program memory. I soft reset every morning and use memmaid and quickmenu to hibernate any running apps and usually have 16 to 18mb by the end of the day.

Just to give my 2 cents I think that pbar is better than that x thing

yes just make sure you dont let the customizations run or your phone will look like sprints, youre also going to want to change your splash screens but you have to do a search for that

Your right I have 256MB ROM for OS and Storage & 64MB RAM...I was thinkg that the WM^ would allocate the ROM storage which I have 90+MB free to allow for running programs.

Could I have a need to load the ROM"storage" with the programs to free the 64MB RAM vs. running from SD Card which loads them in RAM at startup?

Also does the Alltel Touch have the bilt-in GPS as the PPC6800?

I don't use the wi-fi or camera flash much at all but would trade them for more RAM anytime if the Touch was a better performing unit.

Any replies appreciated.

Thanks
