Best memory program for my needs?
Please Login to Remove!
I have a Storm1. Memory drops throughout the day and I do not know what is causing it. When I reboot the device, memory is always under 20mb. What is the best program to show me what is causing this, and will prompt me to reboot the device once it gets too low, and maybe even have the ability to schedule auto reboots?
Thanks,
Chad

We would of course recommend our MemoryBooster application which is Top 1 paid app in the BlackBerry App World.
You can get it at other shops too. E.g. MSM, BBApps.

Sound like you have media (pictures, movies) in the device memory. Can you check and move all media to the microSD media card?

I think it is totally normal that the memory drops from time to time. There are many little workers running in background that ensure you get the most recent email, your alarm works, you roam if needed, and so on ... however, from time to time, the free memory should go back up. If not, such a memory app might help.

What apps are running? You need to supply a lot more information about your Storm's environment.
How much memory is available after a boot?
What apps are you running?
Are you POSITIVE that you moved all media out of the Device Memory and onto the Memory Card?

Memory after a reboot is about 14.5. As requested in my original post, I am looking for a program that will help me monitor the memory so I know what programs are using how much memory, and also either auto reboot or prompt me to reboot when memory is too low. I wish I did know what programs are running, and also how much memory they are using. Would appreciate suggestions for such a program.
Thanks

Did you look at the memory apps mentioned earlier?
Are you 100% positive you have no media in device memory. 14mb is very, very low to start off with. And at boot time, many programs aren't loaded yet.
What programs do you have installed?

99% sure. I browsed the device memory folder looking for media and did not see anything. AstraSync, Crackberry AppStore, BBFileScout, BBweather, CBSNFLSportsStorm, a couple of themes, GoogleMaps, MyVerizon, QuickLaunch, SlackerRadio, StormLock, Tiltris, VibAndRing, Viigo, VyMail, WellsFargo, YourShortcutLauncher, Reset, and Reset2. Not sure what those last 2 are.

Do you know QUICKPULL?
It work's fine with me. You can even schedule a periodic pull, or ask the app to monitor your device memm and reset your BB if it drains your memm below some defined MB

I had this same issue on my Bold 9000 asnd no matter what I did I couldn't fix it. I ended up wiping the device and reloading my apps which fixed the problem and in the end it was faster than playing with it every day trying to figure it out.
Thanks
