This oxios everyone is speaking of, how much would that restore? After a soft reset I typically have around 24mb. If I run TomTom it drops down to 16mb. What I want to know is where did the 8mb go and why can't I get them back without soft resetting?

Once I get down to less than 12mb I'm pretty much screwed and soft reset bound.

You gotta really play with it and have it clean more junk then just the usual stock settings. There are tweaks you can do and settings to maximize extreme speed, or RAM, I personally use the extreme ram. You can also setup up scheduled clean ups.

Oxio is ok but you gotta run it manually everytime you wanna do a clean. Gets annoying really fast.

I'm running on average 17-19mb of free ram but i'm also running HTC home and a couple of other apps at all times. Of course RAM hungry apps like TomTom, googlemaps, livesearch, browsers are always going to eat the RAM up fast. With this phone it's a given. But I usually don't have multiple big apps like that running at the same time.
