i have stripped my storm of basically all but basic core apps and 1 or 2 small 3rd party apps.. my app memory is only at 21 MB... how is it i read some people have over 40 MB of free app memory? i have searched and searched and done all the tips and tricks.. but still cannot find how mine is *lower* compared to everyone elses...
any ideas?

You have to shrink your OS before you install it. With nothing on there you will get 50-60mbs. If you leave core apps you should have at least mid 40s.

Did you notice what kind of phone he has? Storm 2 has double the memory of the Storm 1.

I shrunk my os, have a moderate amount of apps, and sit at about 46 with a drop of 1-2 per day.

Did you run as admin? This is the error I made when I did this last night. It kept saying my Java folder was at 72mB. I closed and reopened SAOS as admin, hit shrink OS, and I was down to 36mB in my Java folder.

I then used the loader.exe from SAOS and I was good to go.

I thought I would of gotten more free App memory, but I am now steady at 45mB.

LOL

We all do. Actually we have 128 MBs. Unfortunately, we have to install an OS on to the phone and we're left with between 20-60 mbs after that.

It was a joke! I have over 100 because I have a Storm2. Although I DID have a regular Storm, which usually averaged around 40.
