Memory leak fixed in version 6.1?

[viarailcanada]

Hello,

I've searched around but have been unable to find an answer to my question.

A few months ago I decided to jump from WM5 to the official HTC release of WM6 on my TyTN (Hermes 200):

Windows Mobile 6 Professional
CE OS 5.2.1437 (Build 17944.0.3.1)

ROM version: 3.54.255.3
ROM date: 07/05/07
Radio version: 1.48.00.10
ExtROM version: 3.54.255.104

Right away I noticed that after browsing on IE Mobile for a short period of time, memory runs out (Program) and has to be shutdown...

(example: was on this forum earlier following a thread and went from 26 MB down to 1 MB in 15 minutes.... No other program running in background.)

Storage memory also takes a hit and can only climb back up to a measly 15 MB after I clear history, cookies, and delete web content.

Needless to say, it's a pain in the ass. Never had this issue with the Rogers branded WM5 ROM.

Has this issue been resolved with 6.1 and can someone confirm this? Would like to make sure before I move ahead...

Thanks in advance,

C

hi there,

i've been using WM6 and WM6.1 now, but i've nvr had ur problem b4.. if i do start up IE, it would eat my memory for sure.. but after i close it, the memory will be freed..

i think its because u did not close all running programs wen u start IE.

my 2 cents.

not experiencing with this problem, you probably gone with the official rom with extended programs installed.

I find recently that if I flash with original shipped ROM first then the cooked ROM, it seemed to be good after that. There are a few chefs around. CRC is for one is good, PDA Corner, Marahox, and PDAViet & Co are also good. You need to try those out and select your preference.

No memory leaks with any of the WM6.1's flashed since January!
Are U running Oxios Hibernate? U should run it at least daily to free up memory...

Also, make sure that you have a task manager like WkTask so that you dont leave any running apps in the background.

If there is no memory leak, there shouldn't be a need to run Oxios to free up memory?
