8830 / 4.5.0.51 / theme related memory leak...

[jdwx]

As mentioned... 8830 running 4.5.0.51

Seems if I just run the oem themes, memory stays pretty much proper.

If I run any themes I've made on theme builder 3.0.0.27 I seem to notice a continual memory leak throughout the day.

Thought that I'd seen some mention of that, but no real threads on it.

Any thoughts/comments?

If I could find the beta OS, I would try and do some testing too.

Get the new Theme Builder and reexport them. Test after that.

Hey there JRS,

This version was released on 6/2/2008 and does OS 4.5. I thought it was the newest one, but I'll check for a newer one.

Thanks.

Yeah, just re-downloaded Plasmic Theme Builder 4.5 and the newest build is version is ver. 3.0.0.27 which is what I have.

I put a theme I made on the BB, I did a battery pull, and ran no other programs except BBSmart Alarm Pro, VibAndRing and SMS Display on(same programs I run with the OEM themes with no issue).

I watched my memory drain to just over 3.3 meg today... I finally did a battery pull to prevent loss of SMS log.

Wild stuff...

I confirm the observation. I have been using the OEM themes since anything else does seem to drain the memory faster and the phone is not as snappy (not that it is snappy to begin with but thats a whole other topic...)

I noticed the "snappy" issue as well I think.

I switched to an OEM theme last night, and woke up late with no alarm going off as the phone mysteriously shut off by itself overnight...

Sort of a bummer, as I'm not a fan of the look of OEM themes at all. I like my Bold 9000 wannabee one, haha...
