I wanna see how much free ram I have left on my e71. How would I go about that? If I have to download an app, please mention a free one first

Just goto Tools>Manager. Chone Memory is also used by the phone as RAM.

[smellati]

I dont see it. I go to tools but there is no icon called manager or phone memory

[cjlim]

Sorry, typo. It should have been File manager.

[smellati]

file manager was in the office folder and it only shows how much internal memory is left on the phone. I need to know how much ram is left.

[cjlim]

Same thing. All comes out of the one pot.

You could also use the Nokia Energy Profiler. 

Downloadable via http://www.forum.nokia.com/Technology_Topics/Application_Quality/Power_Management/Nokia_Energy_Profi...

If you use the "RAM Memory view" you should be able to see how much is used and how much is allocated. Then do the math.. :-)

Quote: "The bright-blue line represents the allocated memory, and the light-blue line is the total RAM available to S60 software."

Also bear in mind: "The RAM available to software differs from the total amount of physical DRAM in a device, because memory may be reserved for exclusive use." 

Hope that helps.

Good idea, 2holdon

i would have to disagree with you there. look at this for example, for the N78: http://www.forum.nokia.com/devices/N78

now Maximum user storage is 70MB correct, and i check the phone memory of mine which has N-gage and a few apps installed, it is now 51.7MB. so this is the 70MB storage. and it says on the website that the free RAM is 48MB.

look at Energy Profiler, says ita ll

I appreciate the help guys. The only reason why I asked is because I'm going to be a future N97 owner and wanted to make sure that it has enough ram to run my apps

[cjlim]

The average user whould never run out of memory. I don't know how you use your phone but use a little common sense when deciding what applications and data to keep. If you don't really need it then uninstall or delete it.

Yeah, I'm confused. I think "phone memory" is really separate from RAM? I'm thinking it's no longer referred to as "space" because it's now memory card-based instead of "disk".
