Touch Pro2 program memory leak???

[GoodThings2Life]

In addition to the Nopush Internet hack, if you disable the CM Call Guardian service you'll free up another 4-5%. To do this, set the following key:

HKLM\Services\CMGuardian
Flags = 4 (it's a DWORD if it doesn't exist.)

--Soft reset after making this change.

If I recall from previous HTC phones, CMGuardian is a service that monitors phone settings and reverts them back to safe defaults periodically. Given that we're all pretty savvy and WANT to change our settings, it seems safe to disable it. To reenable it later, just delete the Flags value and soft reset.

ResProxy is HTC's method of pre-caching your applications therefore multitasking is much quicker and responsive. The only problem with this, is that the default setting is a little too large, therefore casuing you to peak at 90% memory usage most of the time. Especially when your device is on for atleast a day or two with no soft resets.

Setting this to 0 will stop it from "sharing" memory, thus leaving you more available memory to operate.

Even though the setting is at 0, I personally haven't noticed any slowdowns regarding speed.

It works well, this reg will be included in my rom, i also suggest everyone take advantage of it as well.

Cheerio!

@Mike, I would thank you, but I seem to have lost my Thanks button...

EDIT: HUGE IMPROVEMENT with the ResProxy hack! Went from 60-65% to 48%.

I am a noob and this is officially my first HTC phone. So forgive me ahead of time for this question.

How do you go into the registry of the phone to make the ResProxy hack?

I am currently idling at 70% even with the Opera totally closed out and the springtp2_tweaks.cab.

With your hack MM I never get above 53% that I notice I stay around 42-43% with mutiple things open even.

I believe that the Sprint and T-Mobile versions of the Touch Pro 2 have 256MB ram? I know it for sure for the T-mobile version. Just got my Verizon TP2 fedexed today and it has 288! With touch flow on a new startup I have 54% free, which equates to about 102MB, out of 190MB Program memory. Until I have alot of apps running it doesn't even get near 80%. Turning off everything, uncluding touch flo, with a soft reset, I see 48-49% used.

288MB on Sprint.

If you installed my tweaks cab prior to 9PM eastern, reinstall the latest version... it includes all of the above tweaks now.

the tmobile has 288, it just says 256 in device info for some reason

I guess 45% is better but to startup with that still seems high to me.
