How to release more RAM on your Symbian cellphone

>>> Method 1: Flight mode:

Place your cellphone in "Flight mode" with Psiloc System Tools. Set up System Tools, open it and choose "Flight mode". This way you are able to restart the cellphone without the SIM card so there will be no functioning cellphone tasks in the background. Instantly you can get up to 3,5 megabyte of free RAM!

Note: ironically enough, Flight mode does not run when Smart Launcher is set up, at least in my phone.
But I have also found out a few claims of individuals who have both apps functioning without any troubles.



>>> Method 2: Smart Launcher tip:

Set up Smart Launcher and run it. Go to Options, then Settings and set Launcher ON.
Immediately connect your charger and turn off your phone. Wait until the battery meter comes out and quick press the Menu button (do not hold).
Your menu should come out and now you may get 3,5 to 4,5 MB free RAM! (Hold Menu button to check RAM).

The tip is that with the charger connected, the cellphone must get a minimal software support for charging up, even when
the cellphone is turned off. And for some reason Smart Launcher has still got it's shortcut functioning and that's the Menu button. So when
you push the Menu button, you move immediately to the Menu with no other cellphone tasks functioning in the background so
you fool the cellphone and you have a lot of free RAM!
Note: as you disconnect the battery charger, the cellphone will turn off.

>>> Method 3: Menu :

This method I discovered it by myself, it unfreezes a bit about a hundred~two hundred kilobyte but I suppose it is valuable sometime

Close down your menu not by choosing the right selection button "exit", or pushing the menu key another time, they just cover the menu app but don't close it, to close it choose the left selection button "option" and scroll down and choice "exit"

So if you run an app calls for a lot of ram reopen menu and close it, it is helpful when running low bit rate video in realplayer.
