Thanks ! Is it the case that java.lang.Runtime.totalMemory will return the total system memory allocated to the android emulator/phone and java.lang.Runtime.freeMemory will return the available system memory for the emulator/phone ? Is there a way to confirm the total memory allocated to the emulator is the same as the API methods return ?
If that is the case then its fine for system level information. Can anyone please tell me for application level? Should ActivityManager.MemoryInfo suffice ? Thanks, Adithya.
