Hello everyone! The solution (or rather, workaround) for me, so far, has been to root the device and move my apps to the SD card, freeing up more of the phone's internal memory. I now have around 60MB of free device memory (albeit with 200MB+ of apps installed), and have only been able to reproduce the problem once (tried about 10-15 times).
Obviously this situation is still not ideal, but it's one I can live with. Hopefully the problem will more or less subside as device memory becomes larger and larger, and less and less applications need to be installed on the device memory itself due to Apps2SD being built in from Froyo onwards. Thank you all for your help! On Sun, Jun 6, 2010 at 6:11 PM, Dianne Hackborn <[email protected]> wrote: > It's a constant in ActivityManagerService.
