[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pato66:
yes, but not for this, I have 280-350 mb of ram free, when I conect for first step has 420 mb free, reflash your xperia, root it and delete more apps unusables.

cheers
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gm007:
There is a problem with ram on this phone,I've deleted most system applications( hdmi,wappush,usbotg,mtp vpn,backup,email,exchange,tts,and really more....) only 80 apps( system and downloaded) left.

the maximum remaining ram i could get is 320MB

I am using MIUI that means no Timescape and blalabla
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] guildamx:
I also have some concerns regarding the memory management on the XS. I owned a htc evo 3d (same amount of ram) and, even with the hungry Sense interface, I used to have around 400 mb of free ram.

Right now, with my rooted and cleaned XS I have just 80 mb of free ram... :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] waiflih:
What rom do you have? BL unlockable? rooted? how did you root it?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Daniel_GB:
i checked my friend's GSIII, in comparison they have only 30 or 40 MB more free ram
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jitin02:
Car any body tried app named Ram booster from play store . This helps of getting 200-250 free always

How epic to see people rage about ram on android..

The mostly common thing people should do...

Search and read..

Android isnt windows..

Its like this:

You play Battlefield 3 on your pc but your diagrams says: Gpu(graphical proces unit) usage 60%.

So your card is not working optimum.. So what should we do now? I have an idea! Lets bring out an patch!

*Next day releasing patch like a boss*

(not)

You start the game and guess what!?

It needs to be updated. So thats done, you start the game and its now 100%! Wow what an improvement! And it has higher fps!

Thats the idea of the android memory management. Its just for us to not to rage because its `slow`.

Short:

More memory for system is better, more space.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] guildamx:
Efe, thank you for your post but: 1. I am not a noob and 2. I wrote the very same things tens of times to people asking for killing apps manually.

I just wanted to underline the difference between two devices with identical amount of ram. I wouldn't complain about the ram management in the XS if it wasn't for the home redraw, which I never experienced on the evo. ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Salomanuel:
(sorry for bringing up againg this aged topic)

Yes, I understand that you are like the pro-master-hero of android, but the problem here is that the ram IS FULL! And the phone HANGS!

I've heard that when you need ram, the android system kills apps that you aren't using to free-up some space, but actually my phone doesn't do that, it just becomes really slow untill I kill manually some applications from the apps/running tab.

What can I do to fix that?

(I run ICS)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MasterBolle:
Use a RAM cleaner, like from the app "Airdroid"
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Salomanuel:
Lol scavenger digging.

Anyway in those last two years I learned that android is more ram-hungry than, say, Windows xp.

So with 512mb there is very little you can do but save money for something with more ram.

I created a playlist of my favorite songs, they play fine on my computer but when I go to play them on my phone they all skip to the next song in an endless cycle. Playing the songs individually or as an album eliminates the problem. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deniska11:
Hello everybody,

Just installed 2.3.5 Trigger Rom, everything was working fine, i connected to PC, added some photos, apps and then all of the sudden i cant connect :$ tried different cables, tried updating drivers, different ports and still nothing. Tried my SGS2, works flawlessly so it has to be something up with the Vibrant. When i connect my vibrant, in the notification i see "USB debugging connected" but i dont see "USB Connected". I didnt drop the phone or anything, so in terms of hardware everything should be ok. During the day i connected a few times, installed a few apk's that i found on 4pda.ru, GO SMS to be exact, disconnected, installed, connected, installed 1 GO SMS THEME and after that(if i remember correctly) the problem started. What could be the problem?? Thanks everyone

Today I changed the cover of my S Arc. If everything is wonderful. Some tricky passages are but did not take longer than 30 minutes.

Hope the instructions are easy to understand, because my english is bad :)

1.

six screws (four Torx, two cross) solve. Back cover away from the frame, to use a pick or sharpened credit cards. Left, right and down the latches loosen with a pick, remove the back cover then simply

2.

Remove all peripherals (camera, Vibi and sensors, antenna cable, DisplayPort connector, touch screen connector, flex connector). Carefully arrange with your fingernail.

3.

Remove print. Pry with a little leverage from the Micro-USB connector her out.

4.

Navi-board removed. Solve the double-sided adhesive with a plectrum in Naviboard. Be careful when introducing a pick, that no parts are damaged by the board. Then-board navigation system, together with double sided adhesive removed. In the camera switch is a barb, these purely press lightly with tweezers first, and then remove the camera switches to the whole Flex.

5.

Display / touch screen front part. Gently (really gently) push plectrum between the front and display (not more than 2mm to 5mm, otherwise the display and touch separately). A drive around it once or twice to dissolve the glue. Then try to remove the display / touch screen from below (with my forth below by the Navi key, not the reverse). Watch out for the flex and connectors, so they are not damaged. In separate action all over the screen or there will never touch the spots and shadows on the display.

[Xperia Arc General] lawgone:
The local service center of Sony in my country doesn't offer service to replace the housing of my Xperia Arc unless I'll buy the parts (housing or body + digitizer) from them. They won't do it if I'll just provide the housing which, say for example, came from ebay. It should include the digitizer and be ordered from them. The funny thing is that it will cost me as much as what a brand new Xperia Arc costs right now in my country.

So I guess, I have to do it myself to save money. I'm just afraid to mess up. :(

PS.: Can anyone post a link of the proper tools needed to do the disassembly/re-assembly? (e.g.: screwdrivers, glues?, etc.)
[Xperia Arc General] morten82:
Great

Great with these sorts of guides :)
[Xperia Arc General] sonyarcs:
i've managed to disassemble digitizer from household and there is some kind of glue. The best way is to heat up a little around the smartphone household and the try to remove the display. putting back new display is easy and doesn't need any new glue, just put it in the place and press around firmly.
[Xperia Arc General] lawgone:
Wow I hope someone can confirm that.

Dude, did you replace your screen too? Or you're still using an old display?

I'm just confused if a glue is also required in the replacement thingy.
[Xperia Arc General] zephyr83:
I replaced all cover. No glue is required!
[Xperia Arc General] lawgone:
Great thanks for the confirmation.

Is the old screen still intact after the replacement?
[Xperia Arc General] gimmeyayo:
thanks for the guide
[Xperia Arc General] zephyr83:
Yes!
[Xperia Arc General] mr_esmit:
Sorry for the necro bumping, but can any one point me in the right direction as to where you are buying the replacement screens from?? Ebay?? If so, what is the best user to buy from?? Also, would there be any problem in just switching the digitizer lens instead of the whole screen?? Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Arc General] sisqoboy:
thanks guys for every single info.

Today I managed myself after the official SE service asked for 100 pounds for this repair.

It wasn't so easy but not bad at all.

If you need any help just ask me.

I ordered the full housing and I got glue as well so it was so easy to put the lcd back.

Strangely , too many users seem to be getting connection problems lately due to various activities they had, some even by just charging it overnight...and solutions for them are also unique and never the same

1) check phone USB slot for contacts problems ( some get misaligned others gets damaged internally, and others somehow moved and needed a nudge to connect, so clean, just to be sure)

2) somehow changes ROM, also have pin configuration changes on the phone, (just like changes in combo key functions) ...so driver changes works for some

So you may have to try all these http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27205737&postcount=4571 But first break that cycle by removing battery and reinsert after a few min and check phone connection

Hello guys I have a problem with htc hd2 who had installed a rom ics4.0.4 of nand.

Practically not use it while you are stuck on the lock screen, then I disconnected the battery, I did it again and is no longer stopped at the white screen WITHOUT htc logo ...

If I enter the bootloader I have the following references

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-8G 2.08.HSPL XE

CotullaHSPL 0x05

0x30

I tried to do everything from task29 to flash rom is from pc to sd renaming the file but nothing went past 0% .... usually I get the error 270 that says image file corrupted ....

The phone changes the word from serial to USB when connected to PC in bootloader mode cmq but I could not unblock this situation in any way, either by removing the stock rom and renaming the file to install it ...

Can you give me some advice?
[HD2 General] gilbert32:
i had almost same problem yesterday (while installing stock rom from sd) and the phone could niether boot, nor install stock rom.

i reflashed in order:

hspl2.08 (from hspl4.exe on pc)

radio 2.15.50

stock rom

everything i flashed was using the pc

i think it's a spl problem but i'm not sure so try reinstalling it at your own risk

This was a lot of help.

Thanks,
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
Without the working USB port I don't think it ALL can be done. If you did a NAND backup of your stock ROM like you should have then restore it first. Put all that ATT bloat back on there. If not stick with what you have and do a factory reset. Then install the counter reset using CWM. And the best you can do is keep your fingers crossed that they do not catch the custom recovery.

And don't forget to change your radio/baseband/modem back to the one that matches the ROM if you have changed it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
You can use a terminal emulator to push the stock recovery back in and delete su and busybox, Then reboot and it will be unrooted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:

Sir, you opened the thread looking for assistance, correct? Although you may not agree with some of the ideas/thoughts, you can try your method and see if it works. But the least you can do is thx these individuals, that are providing for your post...instead the sarcastic remark. Maybe you didn't meant it that way? But with a join date of 2010, you know where the thanks button is located.

If you are worried about warranty denial and the fees, them maybe you keep it stock your next phone?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Ouch!

But my honest thought was "this guy has a hardware issue that has absolutely nothing to do with rom customization. Its already stock. So at&t won't care about root. Just put it in the bag and send it."

Anyway, good luck and I hope your new phone works out better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] imesg:
Yes you are right. As you can see by my posts I was only addressing rangercaptain by the 'helpful' comment and no one else. I appreciate any and all useful suggestions.

I am not worried about fees or anything else. I just don't want to pay them If I don't have to. I simply asked for help and rangercaptain makes a useless suggestion so I made a comment about that. Not about anything else.
