Android Nougat taking too much RAM

Oyeeee1 — Tue, 20 Dec 2016 03:54:38 GMT

I think this OS needs a little tweak/improvement. It eats up alot of space in RAM. As of now my OS runs in 1.4GB. Please do something about it right away. Thanks!

I have the same problem with Marshmallow (around 1GB), Lollipop was better...but Android is working with RAM and programs different lije the Windows, in android is normal when the OS taking so much RAM, if you dont recognize any lags on system or freezing, then I think its ok, but if you think the system is slow responding or it seems buggy (it depends on your hardware too), there can be something wrong...try factory reset or reinstall with PC Companion...anyway, what device you are using?

Ram management ruined again!

Sigh*

Sony what are you doing! It's nice that you can be one of the first manufacturers to have android 7.0 available but c'mon! The performance is abysmal, all of my apps constantly reload and nothing stays in memory.

I can't even switch between emails and chrome to enter passwords because of your ram management. This is a 2016 flagship phone that can't even compete with a Moto G.

It's unbelievable that you can take 1 step forwards and 8 back.

Genuinely disappointed with this software and phone.

For the problem of sony ram management I must agree with you...in my old Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini pro was multitasking better then now in Z5 Compact...I dont understand to it why all apps cannot stay in memory but they are loading each time I switch for example from chrome to write an sms message and back to chrome and it loading again...strange

You guys please turn off smart cleaner...

Re: Android Nougat taking too much RAM

MichalH94 — Mon, 26 Dec 2016 19:09:47 GMT

I dont have any smart cleaner (because I know the smart cleaners in android are stupid idea if we know how android works with ram...but this is really confusing to me). Any next ideas?

Re: Android Nougat taking too much RAM

Oyeeee1 — Mon, 26 Dec 2016 19:16:13 GMT

Imma try turning of that smart cleaner. Thanks for that suggestion.
Any more ideas regarding this issue for os nougat?

In my xz, the OS uses only 1.2 of RAM..

Re: Android Nougat taking too much RAM

Oyeeee1 — Mon, 26 Dec 2016 19:56:27 GMT

How many apps do you have right now?
Is that suppose to be less than 1gb?
Marshmallow os uses just 500+mb when i last checked before. It should be almost the same with nougat.

MichalH94 — Mon, 26 Dec 2016 19:59:01 GMT

Your Marshmallow uses 500+mb? My Marsmhmallow eats around 1-1.2GB ...how its possible?

I'm talking about inbuilt smart cleaner by Sony

And one more suggestion is use Greenify app... Hibernate all the unwanted apps.. Really helps me in multitasking n keeping my phone from running unwanted apps

Re: Android Nougat taking too much RAM

Oyeeee1 — Mon, 26 Dec 2016 21:01:23 GMT

Ow maybe its because i have uninstalled alot of apps from my old phone hahaha sorry..

Re: Android Nougat taking too much RAM

Oyeeee1 — Mon, 26 Dec 2016 21:02:05 GMT

Greenify app works only for rooted phones right?

Re: Android Nougat taking too much RAM

100rabh — Mon, 26 Dec 2016 21:05:32 GMT

No it works for non rooted phones as well

I dont have troubles in Nougat because I have still Marshmallow, but I have still same problem...I dont have any smart cleaners and etc but multitasking is still horrible...any ideas?

Re: Android Nougat taking too much RAM

MichalH94 — Tue, 27 Dec 2016 15:49:49 GMT

And for the greenify solution- I dont believe that task app need acces to my sensitive data so I dont really trust in that...

3GB of RAM is the issue. I have hardly any free at the best of times.

Re: Android Nougat taking too much RAM

MichalH94 — Tue, 27 Dec 2016 17:23:48 GMT

Sunking101 - how many apps you are using when you have 3GB of RAM and always full?
