Do you mean ram or rom...? Common typo, the letters are like right next to each other... Hehe...
But yeah, I'd definitely agree, that's an Elfin.. I thought mine was when I ordered it, but (for Sharic's information) the standard Elf has 64MB RAM and 128MB ROM, the Elfin has 128MB and 256MB respectively.
yeah, definitely an elfin..before i bought my elf, i am eager to own an elfin..unfortunately, it was hard to find 2nd hand elfin in my country so i have to settle with elf..i like elfin so much, because of its 128 ram and 256 rom..my elf always ran out of storage and program memory since i like to install many programs and do multitasking..
(seems like i'm out of topic..haha..just to express my frustration of not getting an elfin)

Alright, My Bad

Hi Guys,
Looking to buy a new HD2, just wondering that whether they still carry the hidden RAM? Has anyone brought one recently?
Yes, all HD2s have 576MB of RAM as long as you have the right ROM and radio.

That's not correct.
The PRO THREE's (Prototype HD2's) have 320/340mb RAM.
LEO 1.5 (TMOUS) have 1024MB RAM.

Yep, just not out of the box. You need the right combination of rom and radio to unlock the extra ram and bring it to 576mb from the default of 448mb if I'm not mistaken..

Since the OP started "Looking to buy a new HD2...", exactly how are the original prototypes relevant to the thread?

which you can see if you click the little arrow next to the quoted person's name (your name) (it takes you to the original quote).
Anyone know why they disabled it?
Is there a rom out there that only enabled the 576mb, and nothing else?

But it's absolutely correct because it's an answer to the OP, which clearly relates only to new HD2s. Maybe you missed that.
But only new US HD2 have 576MB RAM out the box, all other retail HD2s (not the pre-release) need to the right radio/ROM
So in a nutshell, all new retail HD2s have the RAM but only the US one is activated out the box
please help... on my phone it says total storage capacity 181.47... and total program memory 336.93... how's that... i bought the phone from orange romania... and this is after a hard reset... although in the about page it says... 448 RAM and 512 ROM...
anyone?

512 rom - minus the space the rom and the radio take up, also minus thee space the rom uses when it installs after a flash.takes about 250-350 meg which leaves you around 200 meg storage space.
448 ram - minus 128 meg for graphics =320 meg program memory.
your figures are exactly what a stock hd2 should show.

thanks... it's a relief... i saw cooked roms with much more free memory and i thought it was something wrong with my hd2 due to the fact that was bought from an operator

but only when using a 2.06 or higher radio that has .50. in the version and not .51.
Do NOT flash that rom from sd card.
This whole time I have been researching the HD2, I have always heard it having about 500+mb ram...now when I went and checked on the Tmobile site it says 1gb of ram...here (I was comparing it to the touch pro 2)...

I hope this is true ? but Idk why I dont really believe it yet??...any ideas?
the american version of the hd2 will have more RAM and ROM
These screenshots say 512MB ROM, 1GB RAM... but from what we know it's the opposite (1GB ROM and 512MB RAM), the guy who made the website description most likely screwed up. Not to mention 1GB RAM would be absolutely useless.

Yea, that's definately true!
But people always say bigger is better
Big phone
Big delay
Big bug
Big error
Is it better? No it isn't!!
yeah even on the htc website it says it will have 1gb of ROM and 5_ _ mb of RAM.... hey I know you say 1gb of ram would be useless, but for the same price -why would you argue with that ? haha....but yeah can we say 'false advertisement' here?.... I am sure there is a complaint to be made, for those of us who already knew it was fake from the beginning it would not be a surprise when we get our hd2 and do not see 1gb of ram...but for the others, they may be like 'wth??!' ....

Those who don't know yet most likely don't know where to check how much they have, and certainly don't even know what RAM is

This reminds me...
"hey, check out my new comp I just built! It's got 8GB of RAM!"
"Oh that's pretty cool. What processor are you running?"
"I went with Pentium 4. To save me some money on useless thing. Who cares? I have 8GB of RAM!"

Current ( European ) HD2 :
-512 RAM
-512 ROM
T-mobile ( USA ) HD2 :
-512 RAM
-1024 ROM
Isn't it 574 ram on both versions?
yeah they do but most shipped roms disable the last few sectors of ram for stability reasons i believe, you need a cooked rom to enable the full amount
Yep, but why do they loose stability with more ram?
Loose stability??? I see no difference between cooked rom (576MB RAM) and official 1.66 WWE (448MB RAM).
it probably looses stability in a case of when an application over ranges ram so if there is a block of ram reserved then it may be used for those instances ? I am not sure just trying to think why it would be that way....
Just open lots of apps to fill RAM and again ad again. Nothing happends. Where did U read about instability with 576MB unlocked?
that is not what I was talking about, (opening a bunch of apps)... that does not mean it will over range the ram...
you may be familiar with programming and in such if you say go out of bounds on an array -it will cause some sorts of errors.... This is the type of situation I mean when I said over ranging ram, except it may come in a different form, but when a program basically tries to access more ram than it is allowed or tries to access ram which is non existent then it would normally cause an error....
all in all it is just an example, and I was just trying to think logically of why they would not allow all of the RAM to be unlocked in stock ROMS ...

I concur, I am actually using one right now and in hardware specs it shows the 576mb RAM, 1024mb ROM, and of course the sick 1024mhz processor
as a result of the U.S. version having more ram and rom, its a little bigger..
Hi,
I am running C5 GTX rom on my phone and when i run ram cleaner, at the end of process it says Free Ram 256 mb. Isnt it supposed to be 576 MB?
I am sorry if this topic exist but couldnt find. Thank you for your answers in advance

The operating uses RAM in order to run. Same reason why you don't see 2 GB of free ram on a desktop that only has 2 GB of ram.
yea 250 sounds about right. mine has 258 free with opera running.
also, you don't have 576 to play with, cos the graphics chipset takes 128, so you only really get 448, so you are using 192, meaning you currently have about 55% free.
Thank you for your responses .
i've putted android on nand and hardware informormation tell me that i've got 431 mb of ram
some where i've read that with android on nand the htc hd2 unlock the 576 mb of ram it's true? i made an error installing android?
no, its simply not available yet, maybe in the future... with nand it is possible
ok thanks so it's normal that i have the 440 mb of ram?

well... you're sure its 440mb? normally android builds have around 412 mb
yes i've got 412 mb of ram i made a mistake because memory booster told me: total ram 432706112 bite
I think we are using full ram already, just as we were with sd android builds. Just some of the ram is for video and system, so its not user accessible.

mhh not sure about that, because hardware info would say 576mb ram then, like on every other android phone. you will see there full ram also, and not only the space which is reserved for programs
edit:
you dont have access to full ram in winmo also, you see only the space which is accessible for your apps and stuff. but when you look at hardware info it will show you, that your phone has 576mb ram. thats what i mean.
I think there was a thread explaining it somewhere, but I'm pretty sure that we're not getting anymore RAM than we already have.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
I thought some later winmo ROMS unlocked some missing RAM on Euro models, if so this could be done in Android to? - damn our inferior Euro models !!!
hope some brother can hack full ram on HTC eur, my phone show the total of Ram is 412 MB not 576 mb>> sad... if it possible that wonderful!!!
