Yeah after trying out SEVERAL different today themes I've come to the conclusion that the major memory leak resides somewhere in windows mobile 6.1.

HTCHome does have a small leak itself, but I've come to terms with it and use it anyway and my phone is fine. I have the task manager and Oxios Hibernate (frees memory) on my launcher and use them all the time. I soft reset the phone usually once a day and it's fine.

I've tried PointUI, Wisbar, RLtoday, and HTC Plus and the major leak (the one that drops it down to > 8 mb) occurs anyway.

I'm hoping that when the final product gets released by microsoft/htc/verizon/sprint, the leak is somewhat fixed. Until then I'll be using HTCHome.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RFinger:
What is HTC Home? Does anyone have any screenshots? Whats the difference between home and plus?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kmartburrito:
Simply put, there is just no replacement out there for HTC Home. there are apps that come somewhat close, but the biggest place where they lack is the sweet digital skinnable clock.

I have tried SPBTime, Rltoday, SPB+,Throttle Launcher, Today's Time, and so many others I can't think of at the moment. Nothing comes even remotely close.

One app that I did find however in my search is UltimateLauncher. This app is frigging amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can create multiple tabs, and include today plugins within those tabs, shortcuts, .lnk's, and ultimate other things. You can also build them, combine the tabs also, so you could have HTC Home and BatteryStatus on the same tab, and then go to the next tab with shortcuts on it, or a TodayAgenda plugin for instance. The plugin is infinitely customizeable, and it has a cube rotate animated transition between tabs, or several other options. It uses little memory, but alas doesn't have the large digital clock that I seek.

If we can figure out this memory leak, rest assured my home tab for ultimate launcher will be HTC Home with something else underneath it.

I really wish we could figure this out. I'm going through the steps of stress testing each today plugin to see what kind of memory leak is associated. I can say that with BatteryStatus (which I know doesn't leak) only on my desktop, I still have leaks. That leads me to believe with an earlier poster that this is coming from WM6.1. The 3.16 rom I leaked from Sprint had almost NO leak whatsoever, which is unique with most of the ROMs I've tried. I would go back, BUT, I like the threaded SMS app, and detest all other mockery of these :)

So, I'm stuck in a catch 22, like most of you probably are as well.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RFinger:
Wow HTC Home is pretty sweet... Is anyone working on the memory leak?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bdizzel1982:
what is the newest version of htc home does anyone know??
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] 92GTA:
I'm running v2.1.1005.722. I made a few changes in the .cab and changed a couple image files too and I still don't have a memory leak at all with my ROM...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ragecyr:
i have been using 2.0.814.722-schen (kaiser.htc.home)

Mind posting your newer version? I'll see if i notice a difference between them.

For testing purposes, i have uploaded the version i have installed on my device since day 1.

Naturally I take no responsibility for the file, use at your own risk, avg said no viruses.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] 92GTA:
Here. Please note though that it only has Bakersfield CA for weather, you will have to add your own city. I also made a few changes like some transparent icons and stuff.

EDIT: Fixed, sorry I posted the wrong file at first...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] fallingup:
being a rom developer, i think i can safely say that the leak is in 6.1 itself, not in htchome. home does have a small mem leak, but it doesnt cause the "big" leak. I have built roms without home, and still have that major leak. so i am thinking that its with 6.1 fully.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dalvarez7:
You know, I've notice less of a memory leak. I'm running the latest HTC Home and WM6.1. I'm not sure if it's one or the other or a combination of both, but it seems to be a lot better. So much that I don't mind running it again.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] chadman:
I have just been messing with SPB Mobile Shell and it is really cool, but I still think I like HTC home better. Mobile Shell uses about 1.3meg on internal memory and looks great. Hard to spend the money for it when HTC home looks just as good. I feel confident that the memory is the fault of WM6. I have had this same memory issues ever since I got this phone with every combination of software. Chad
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bdizzel1982:
hey 92gta when i download the file and try to open it says it cant can you please repost the file as it seems the one you posted is corrupt
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] chadman:
It worked for me, just had to rename it from .zip to a .cab file. Chad
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] PDAnuby:
Just wanted to put in my 2 cents on this, I have tried the DCD 2.2.6 ROM with nothing else installed and I still have memory leak, a small one but it is there.

Installed ROM, did not install anything else on device, memory was at 21.4 turned the unit off left on cherger went to sleep. woke up turned unit on and memory was at 18.3, so i am loosing about 2 MB of RAM in a 7 to 8 hour period.

Not sure if this is normal or not because i never tested this when I had the original ROM.

This also happen on ver 2.2.0
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] PDAnuby:
I installed this file and it hosed my device, this is not an official update from HTC is it?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] 92GTA:
Of course it's not official. As far as I know HTC has NEVER released this ala-carte.

Sorry you got hosed, I've loaded this onto about 3 dozen devices and have never had a problem. Do a cold reset and install it. Then start figuring out what you had that was incompatible with it by installing your apps one by one.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] PDAnuby:
No worries

Oh no worries mate :) I asked cause I have been using ver 2.0.814.722 and I was not aware that these were not official releases. It's al good as my name implies I am still learning this stuff, thanks for uploading the file though.

Hard resetting does not bother me :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] NexVision:
Alright after a couple days of testing HTCHome this is my observation. HTCHome produces a 5mb memory leak over a 6hr period. This is with using the main, contact, weather, music and ringtone tabs. If I disable and remove all remnants of the weather tab it cuts the leak down to 3mb. Now on its own this does not seem to be that big of a deal however add it to the memory leak which is created by WM6.1 and this becomes a issue.

Now I have also tested with multiple versions of home some creating a much larger leak then others. The version of home which I got these results with is the same version GT posted above.

Now me being confident that the WM leak will be fixed either by people on here or hell maybe even microsoft and the fact that I have been able to get the leak down to being extremely minimal the HTCHome plugin will be built into my roms from this point on.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] 92GTA:
Ok, I'm gonna rant for a second.

Are the people complaining about a WM memory leak the same people who like to ***** about Vista using so much ram because they don't understand the newer caching being implimented?

Sure, WM will of course have a little less memory available after hours of use and opening and closing apps! BUT guess what? It runs faster after that amount of time huh? I bet even those same apps you opened and close even open faster now huh?

My point is that if you have free memory, USE IT! That's all MS is doing. Why be proud of how much free memory you have available? Be proud of how fast your device is.

I will admit that I haven't read the MS tech docs on WM memory management, only MS's memory management model on their desktop OS and server OS platforms. But I'm still willing to bet that it's not a "leak".
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] chadman:
I was not sure if you are serious or just joking. The memory management on WM6 is about the worst I have ever seen. I leave Windows XP computers on for days, weeks, even months at a time without ever rebooting them. We have some UNIX servers at work that have not been rebooted in over a year and run great. With nothing installed on my phone it will start to spam low memory warnings in a matter of days with a lot of use. This is just using the stock software that is on my phone. I understand what Vista does with memory caching and this is not happening with WM6 or 6.1. It is sucking up the memory until the phone craps itself. Chad
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
He's not joking.

What he's saying is...compared to prior versions of Windows Mobile...WM6 is a HUGE upgrade when it comes to memory management. What people seem to lose sight of is these devices are NOT pc's. They are not meant to run like pc's do nor are they expected to. I don't think it's a big deal at all to have to soft reset my device once every day or two...in fact even if it didn't leak, I'd still probably do it.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] chadman:
Well this is my first Windows Mobile device and I am glad I did not own one before if this is the big improvement. I have never heard of any OS that expects a user to reboot daily for good performance. Just poor design. Chad
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] 92GTA:
Dude, technology is only so far right now. WM is basically pretty new still and WM6 is like Windows 3.1, WM5 was 3.0, lol.

I'm sure if we had batteries with 4 times the battery life available in the same size we have current batteries and just overall much more advanced hardware that the WM OS would be much more stable. People can talk **** but WM gives you ALLOT considering what it is and the hardware it's on.

I'm sure in 5 years things will be much better, innovation just takes time. People can't expect everything to be mature and perfect for everyones needs just years after it's initial release. WM has been around what, 8 maybe 9 years, other OS's have been around for like 20!!!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
On a side note...

speaking of the hardware that it runs on...I've been meaning to ask this for a couple days now...

Does anyone know if it's possible to use HTCPerformance to overclock the titan the way we could on the apache? If so, is it risky on the titan? I used to oc by apache to 520 mhz.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] harlot011104:
People:eek:,

WOW, this is pretty funny... I personally think that wireless technology developers are officially at war right now since the release of the iphone (don't taze me bro) & Microsoft needs to get their head out of their monopoly butts before they get them handed. They are just being lazy, that's what it all comes down to in my opinion. The developers on here and ppcgeeks.com have collectively added more value to our mobile platforms than either Microsoft or our carriers (obviously) have. We should have a device that is capable of giving us all the pim, multimedia, and navigation features we want and still be reliable. Reliable meaning that we shouldn't have to interact with our phones once they are operating normally, to keep them operating normally.

I'm just sayin:)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kmartburrito:
From what I've read recently, this is absolutely NOT possible. Our Mogul's processor is a dual core based processor, a completely different architecture than the one based on the apache. Running it might give you a placebo effect and make you think it's a little better, but many have tested this until they're blue in the face and haven't come up with anything solid.

Basically, until someone makes an overclocking app based solely on our Mogul's architecture, it's not gonna happen...Sucks too, I used to overclock my Wizard like a mofo and it was great, made it seem like a completely different phone.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kmartburrito:
I wish it were possible to run Linux on our phones. now THAT would be sweet. Then all we would need is MobileWINE ;)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] PDAnuby:
I thought this post was for discussion on HTC home and issues not what we can expect in future releases of WM and the pros and cons of the current version.

Try to stick to topic and with that said the version 2.1 of HTC home does seem to have a higher leake rate then version 2.0 on a device that has DCD's ROM ver 2.2.0
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gasdrillingfool:
I am currently using QuickMenu 2.7 with the it's own hibernate feature to regain my memory when it gets low. I noticed that may other programs drain my mogal at the end of using example: PIE, Opera Mini, TomToms 6, wifirouter, and many other programs like HTC Home. I don't thinks it's the programs that's drainning the ram, but it's the OS not able to manage it. Give QuickMenu a try, it's alot faster than soft resting the device.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] hotbyz168:
Something new for me...

I have the newest 6.1 base i think 2.2.6 or something, and i only had 3.5 meg free and had htc home spb plus and a few other apps as well s2u2, touchflo, cube, etc... i decided to open up a 3d rally racing game which has graphics like the ps1 did believe it or not... a window popped up and said this game requires at least 6 megs of space and asked me if i would like windows to remap the memory so the app could run! I hit yes and sure enough the game oppened up and played perfectly smooth. So something has def changed.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] zoomy942:
i am testing a theory today. i noticed that when i keep the messaging application closed (using HTC X button) my memory has been sitting strong at 15MB free. i open emails and texts and such, then reply, then close it out.

may mean nothing but i am going to try it
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] hempy:
Isn't that the purpose of Android? HTC conforms to the Open Handset Alliance, which means all of it's units can run it once released.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] zoomy942:
its been several hours and i am still at 14MB...... things look good so far
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kt61073338:
The problem is the dll files are not closed after the application has been closed. In register key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer, add a string "AlwaysUnloadDll" and set the value to "1". Soft reset will do. After doing this, I can always recovered back to 22.3MB of RAM.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] xx_Demon_xx:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=382229&highlight=htc+home

I started using this one and it seems to be pretty good. Now I do run Oxios Hibernate to release free RAM periodically, but stay at 19mb or more for days on end without a reset by doing this.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] SpyderSL:
I just updated to Oreo via OTA and the phone worked great for a day. After that, I couldn't make calls and people couldn't call me. My phone would randomly reboot or get stuck on the G logo.

I wiped and reinstalled Oreo, and now the same thing is happening. Plus I see this weird 'colourful static' after trying to make a call, before my phone just shuts off. I tried safe mode and the same thing happens.

Currently in an urgent situation where I need my phone to be functioning, hoping someone here can help.

Thanks
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] erc.:
I am having exactly the same issues since the Oreo OTA. If I reboot the phone, the issues go away for a while, but eventually it's back to problems where I'm unable to make/receive calls, screen is flickering (even that colored static you mentioned), lag when unlocking the phone, etc.

Have you found out anything?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] rohitece06:
I have no such problems. I am running stock. It is running really smooth. I also have september security update. Unfortunately, only thing I can suggest is factory reset.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] erc.:
I am also running stock, never rooted, never unlocked the bootlader, also running the september security update. I have factory reset, and I have even run into the issues while using the phone in Safe Mode. There are a number of people with similar issues leaving feedback on Google's issue tracker, but I was hoping to find someone who maybe has found a solution.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] rohitece06:
I am sorry to hear that man! I hope you/google figures it out.... may be try flashing the factory image manually.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] pkdenver:
I'm having the same issues and verizon Chat support told me they are having issues with the OS upgrade and the Pixel. Did the factory reset and everything else. Replacement phone coming now. If it's the Oreo OS, I bet it's going to have the same problem... This is a major problem, as I am a single Dad and have a long drive to get my daughter - do they really want me to text while I drive instead of calling?? This is Day 5 of this issue and 4 trips to their stores.... ugh. Suggestions?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] SpyderSL:
Update

Just wanted to post an update. After factory resetting a few times the problem persisted. I sent it back to my wireless carrier and they sent it to Google. In the meantime I had a loaner phone from my carrier. Google sent back a refirb (it was practically new with new screen and camera), and the issue hasn't come back in the new phone. My suggestion is to send back to your carrier to get a replacement. Good luck!
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] stevysg:
i am on stock too (from google store), oreo update and have exactly the same problem, it also occurs with "ok google".

after reboot, calls and "Ok google" work perfect so the mic is okay. but sooon after it just stops working and i got randoom reboots.

same is happening in "safe mode"

i did factory reset via android and id did not help.

now i tried a factory reset via boot menu and will check it out.

Some russian users on PDA4U confirmed that the Android One firmware is not compatible with the Mi 5X. Yes the hardware between the two devices is identical but the partitions are different between the two devices due to the A1 using the A/B system that the Pixel devices uses. The A/B systems means that when the device gets an update it will be downloaded and installed on the second system partition and when you restart that second parathion will swap to become System A instead of B to make the updating process seamless. Mi A1 is the first device to get this feature aside from the Pixel as far as I know.

So at this point there is no way to install the Mi A1 ROM unless someone just make custom ROM out of it to suit the Mi 5X partitions and in this case no ota and it will be included a custom ROM or custom builds for very update that come out for the Mi 5X. It's a mistake to trust Xiaomi with any solid release anyway.
