Why does it say I only have 568 mb of RaM?

[ikrispyyy]

Everytime I see a screen shot of someone else's sensation It says they have 613 ram total my tmous Sensation only has 568.. is this a factory defect or is that just how tmobile sensations are made? I feel like I'm getting screwed out of a decent amount of ram.

for me it says 563 MB I think the missing is used up by the OS and htc sense

Well, your gpu needs some ram, and it doesn't like it when Tue amount of ram it has changes, so that value is constant.

Also, some low level system stuff needs some constant memory as well. Also, this has been asked, AND answered many times already...

Bro stock HTC kernel has 613mb...all the custom ones limit it to 563....that screenshots you've seen must be taken from a Rom which has stock kernel...I don't know why custom kernels have limited the actual amount of ram...I have check this when I was using insertcoin with bricked kernel...it shown 563mb ram...when I returned to stock kernel...ram get back to 613mb
