Hi oldskool7
Just thought I’d pass by to say thanks for an awesome app, I have been using from the early day without any problems what so ever and has been used on countless ROMS.
Great Work, love the fact your GUI is in MB’s so we know exactly that we are setting this for our own requirements. B)

Hi, good question.

About half way through that post the important bit to note is…

“Be careful, the units of these values are pages!! 1 page = 4 kilobyte.”

…so if we take the example of 48MB the maths is…

48MB * 1024 (to kb) / 4 (to pages) = 12288

That’s basically all MinFreeManager does internally, convert the value you enter in MB to pages (not KB) using the above formula and write it to the file.

Hope that makes sense, and thanks for commenting.

Hi!

I have one question. In the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622666 the values are given like: 1536,2048,4096,5120,15360,23040

Your values are in MB, so whats the difference? In your “mild” setting, there are 48MB for “Empty App” and thats not like the value 23040 in KB. So is your setting “mild” more aggresive than the value in the forum or whats different?

Thanks for your answer!

…maybe, I was just guessing from your gmail address and your ISP you’re based in London and an Arsenal supporter… so you’ve gotta be from near me somewhere.
