Not really, as the chip is soldered to the main board.

Hi Hex, just wondering how the memory is becoming a problem, I've installed loads of apps and so far its not been an issue. Are you finding that you have apps installed that are gobbling up your memory or that there are some apps that cannot be installed due to limitations?

I've installed an app that allows me to stop apps from starting up when my tablet boots which helps to free up memory.

Employees are like mules. Some you stand in front of and coax them along with a carrot. Some you stand behind and kick them in the arse. The key to management is knowing which mules are which!

@forrrge
Yes. I was just about to post that link.
Great app.
It is very good for controlling apps that auto start in the background.

You have to go through every task one-by-one, but it's worth it.
The first step in being right is admitting that you're wrong
