stock rom uses way less ram?

so is it just touch flo that causes the high ram use or what? i had ssk on it and iwas always at 70percent or higher running nothing. With the completly stock rom im at 40. Am i doing something wrong with ssk or how could i get a cleaner looking rom but still have ram to actually use programs?

verizon tp?
need a lower page pool
try one with a 6 mb page pool and your ram use will be at 40%

is 6.5 with touch flo ok to use on vzw or should i use 6.1 non touch flo? also by lowering it to 6mb how much slower will it run or what will i be sacrificing?

Yeah I believe the default Verizon ROM is a PP of 6. Well the nice thing is you can always try it and reflash again if it's not good.

Also keep in mind Titanium (new 6.5 skin) uses less RAM than TF3D, so you might consider using it instead.

You can use 6.5 or 6.1 with or without tf3d - just lower the pagepool to 6 or 8. It might give a small decrece in speed but not really noticable.

nods because of vzw touch pro I have gotten used to titanium in the 6.5.1 builds
surprisingly it does what I need it to do

Does anyone know of a WM6.5 ROM with just the standard TF3D without Manilla or is that just not possible. I am using the Verizon stock 6.1 ROM and have plenty of ROM with TF3D. The custom 6.5 ROMS are not usable with Manilla TF3D.

Thanks

hey man - read the 6 posts above yours
take any custom rom that runs on you tp, lower the pagepool, and it lowers the ram usage!
it doesn't matter if it has tf3d or whatnot.
6 or 8 works well for verizon

SSK already lowers the pagepool for Verizon as SSK is built specifically for the Verizon TP.

Scott may have loaded up the ROM with lots of goodies which you may or may not need.

I would try using one of his Kitchens and only select the software you want.

i just reflashed again to the ssk lite (different than the panoramic i used before) and i am still having the overall laggy phone issues along with when i slide out the keyboard it instantly locks everytime. I have no installed any apps on this rom and I have hard reset twice now.

Any ideas? Is it the rom or the phone or something stupid im doing?
