TP2 ram question.

What happened to all the ram on the tp2. I thought the tp2 was supposed to bave 288mb ram but on a few custom roms that I've been using, it shows only 182mb total. What happened to the remaining 100mb?

specs for the tp2 CDMA:

Memory183 MB (internal memory available to user for storage)

are you sure your not looking at the storage memory instead of the ram?

Hmm thats strange. I thought the specs for the tp are the same as the tp1. Phonearena says there is 288mb for the Sprint tp2.

hey,
actually.... it is 256MB + 32MB (Video Memory) = 288MB
that is what is installed on the device, of course depends on what you are running at that time, will have less then 100MB free.

yes 288 MB RAM (32 vid)... what i posted prior was the storage memory only 1mb more then what you poset in your first post. just checkin to see if your looking up the storage memory vs the ram

Ok so the tp2 has 288mb RAM. 32mb of the 288mb is video ram. In my settings it shows i have 253mb of storage and 183mb or program memory. I'm sure that the program memory is the phone ram. So what happened to the 73mb that it doesnt show?

Go to Start->Settings->System->Memory.

You will see the Storage Memory(NVRAM - Internal SSD) on the Left and the Program memory on the right. (RAM - what your programs, documents, cache's, etc. load into) Which is what you see when you go to "About". I'm thinking that is what you are looking at. The Storage memory is the 288 you see in the specs. This is basically like the Hard Drive of the phone or Solid State Disk, etc.

That sucks. So the tp1 had more storage space and ram.

No, it was the same. i think you are getting confused.

Im looking at my old tp1 now and it says 343mb storage and 200mb program from the settings menu.
