Add RAM size verification #74

Open sambul13 opened 1 year ago

sambul13 commented 1 year ago

The app doesn't show "real" device RAM size - WHY? I have an Android 10 TV Box with advertised 4GB RAM. I set 8GB Memory Copy, and it gone through - why? Can you add consecutive write to RAM with chunks retention, or allow to change the chunk size aiming to verify actual device RAM size regardless of what info is stored in Proc?

Have no idea what you are talking about..

Real device RAM - I don't think the shows RAM size anywhere, neither there's a setting defining any Mem Copy params

Hi Maxim, these are feature suggestions, much needed to combat TV box & phone & other devices fraud from Aliexpress and similar suppliers who routinely advertise fake high RAM and ROM values for their products. For example, I bought this TV Box from a listing with 50K positive reviews!!! Buyers had no idea the advertised specs and fixed box proc records were fake, the only hint was Android OS kept closing running apps when starting another app while showing plentiful free RAM. Paying extra $10 for 4x64GB box compare to 2x32GB basic spec, multiply it by 50K sales, and you get $500K a year stolen per seller per listing. And no reliable software to prove fraud in dispute.
