too little ram on your iphone? mine too!! what should we do?

**malevo** · 07-19-2009, 05:20 PM

hi guys
well i think we all know what I'm talking about.. i'll give you an example: i use safari to look around facebook (the real one, not the mobile version where i cant see almost nothing) and then i try to open an instant messenger app (lets say the app has a name really alike the function of the program and a +) and when it finishes starting it crashes and unless i open sbsettings and kill the safari progress it will keep crashing

so the question is: can we upgrade the amount of ram? cuase im getting a bit tired of it

**cpjr** · 07-19-2009, 05:32 PM

No you cant. Not without replacing the entire mainboard.

Or...buy a 3GS, mine runs at an average 125 free MB ram and never crashes.

^ +1

Just buy a 3GS, it has double the ram

**malevo** · 07-19-2009, 06:13 PM

that might not be that easy for a 16 yo boy and i only own an ipod touch 1g xD
i was thinking of buying it but when the price comes down n whem its available here in argentina lol

Upgrading the ram in your ipod is not doable either

**cpjr** · 07-19-2009, 09:18 PM

Well prolly doable....but not by you or me.

**StealthBravo** · 07-19-2009, 09:22 PM

^ lol. True dat. Its possible to get 1 GB of ram in that puppy!

**cpjr** · 07-19-2009, 09:28 PM

^Lol. Im very happy with the 256mb the 3GS has.

The processor would have to upgraded quite a bit for the hardware to need anymore ram than that, it would just be overkill.

^ What if you wanted to have 6 music apps running in the background while you were playing 2 games in the background while surfing the net?

**Poseidon79** · 07-19-2009, 09:36 PM

Overkill?!! PSHHHH! Let's put a Quad Core in there and a gig of RAM! WOO!

**StealthBravo** · 07-19-2009, 09:37 PM

^ lol. There really is no such thing as overkill

When browsing this site w/ only wifi how much ram u guys get? I got 85mb is that to low

**Poseidon79** · 07-19-2009, 09:46 PM

Unless you get below 30 or 40MB would I start to worry. I have a TON of stuff loaded on my 3GS and I get down to 70-80MB when i'm running several things at once. At rest it's about 110.

**bobright** · 07-19-2009, 09:54 PM

Going to check where im at with my browser fully closed, in fact how the hell is that done? Holding the home button now brings up voice control =/

**StealthBravo** · 07-19-2009, 09:54 PM

Yea mine hovers around 110 also

**cpjr** · 07-19-2009, 10:01 PM

^^You can use SBsettings to check running processes and close them

Lemme clarify "overkill"

I meant more than 256mb of Ram would be overkill for a 600mhz processor

I upgraded mine.

Stuck it on ebay, sold it, bought a 32GS.

"That's upgradin' baby"
