Periodic, celldask). I would start here, otherwise go nuts and just make sure you don't delete any apps you may need. There are numerous desscusions about how to delete things right now so I won't go into that. I am also going to say that this only frees up archive space (corect me if I'm wrong) and you can use ths space to archive programs giving more ram for one or a few unarchived programs to use. you can't run archived programs unless they use a shell like mirage OS. So if you run out of space archive a few programs. |

Ha! i didnt revive a dead topic this time, i remembered to check the date!
By the way, if you press 2nd then + (mem) then press 2 you can select the programs, press enter then the program will be archived, Correct? Does this free up the same amount of ram as deleting the program? |

I guess I'm good at rambling then. :) |
