Apps to disable to increase free ram? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone found a good list of apps, bloatware to disable to increase the amount of free ram on the phone yet and speed it up a bit? Cause at the moment it looks like a lot of ram is being used by bloatware.

Please read about Android Memory Management. It is good to use RAM for apps.

I'm not denying that but it isn't bring used by apps I'm actually using. Tw bloatware is using all the free ram and half of it is never used so that can be disabled to increase free ram.

Use Titanium to freeze bloatware, then if you have problems you can unfreeze. Sorry I don't have a list...

Ram Usage

My ram is always at like 500 and I can't get it down and it slows my phone down and I can't pinpoint what it is. Thanks for the future help

I figured it out I wiped my cache and dalvik

Just kidding the issue persists
Sent from my XT907 using xda app-developers app
I usually eliminate / remove the background processes of the apps I'm not using or don't consider top priority for notifications and etc.
And if the service restarts then force close / freeze

If your on a stock rom this seems pretty consistent with the ram usage I'm looking at with nothing frozen on stock.

He's ^^^ correct. RAM usage shouldn't slow down your phone, if it's reasonable, and it is. One of the apps is causing the issue, not the amount of RAM being used. Android is designed to stack RAM.
I'm on cm10 and I don't have that many apps installed but look:

Google Services takes too much RAM

Hey guys,
I noticed that Google Services take alot of RAM. Especially location manager or something.
As you can see it takes 45mb ram, more then any other app takes...
Is this normal?
Thanks in advance

Think it's normal.. 35mb here usually
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Ram that's not used is wasted. 45mb isn't an issue.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
You have 2GB of RAM and complain about a system app that takes 45MB of it? Like the person above me said, RAM not used is RAM wasted. That's how Android works.

I know I have much ram left and 45 doesn't have to be a issue but I was thinking if an app that uses 45mb ram doesn't drain my battery faster!

It would drain faster if you try removing the process from memory as it has to put it back

1 month slow down

It's been a month and I have tons of apps and now the phones all of a sudden lagging. Anyone else notice this?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Like everything lags or just particular apps/functions (sms, recent apps, etc)? Have you tried wiping cache in recovery?
R u rooted and do u have a recovery?
How about using the built in memory cleaner that frees up ram.add a swap along with your ram.I guess more info is needed to help u
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
Use holo launcher hd as ur default launcher....im convinced touchwiz has leaks
I havr advanfed task killer installed and let it run idling. ...normally I never use it but on the rare super lag I kill everything in memory (I.e. no auto kill as normally android does better memory management on its own)
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
Had mine for exactly one month today and nope, no lags at all.
Are you using Greenify (if rooted)?

i mean yeah it works and all but it doesnt mean it stops the lag lol...
Have a ton of crap on your phone will slow it down, and I'm assuming you already knew this. I'm going to assume that you mean your phone took a massive lag attack all of a sudden.
I'm going to say it's something in your memory that keeps launching itself. What's the last app you installed? How many apps run in the background on your phone?

Memory (RAM) size?

Guys, everywhere says GNote 3 has 3 GB RAM. but I only see 2.3GB as max available. did my device miss some RAM??
Lol, probably not. Remember that for now there is a ton of bloat to consume our precious n3's resources. You're all good.
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I'm pretty sure the .7 that you are missing is how much it takes just for the phone to run

Still running these services after closing all active apps, it shows that it Used 480 mb out of 800 mb.
What else shall i hibernate? Isnt it wise to use the 1gb ram, thats what ram is for but it will effect a bit ur battery life.
Thanks
