navcore in the original set up was 7162/8492 did a fresh install and 1.6mb ram free and still sluggish

What's in your setconfig.txt file? That makes a huge difference.

If you are referring to saving RAM, the Outsource folder is a bigger player, than switchfiles.

A first try could be:

Code: Select all

model:x40light
bton
ttsoff
fmoff

well its still the same 1.2 mb free and sluggish

attached are the 3 config files i set up, not sure if theree how they should be

in your setconfig.txt + model.txt run a light emulation as megalos said above also delite "runcheck" no need for it

"model:x40light"

Model: is in the setconfig.txt file, so delete the model.txt file. Version.txt just creates a ttgo.bak file.
Also x40 is for 4.3" screens & x40light is for 3.5" screens.

its a 4.3 screen
deleted model text
tried x 40 light in set config still only 1.6mb ram and even slower now

You're sure the setconfig.txt is actually working? You can see this if you go to 'Version info' --> 'Copyright' --> 'Current Configuration'. What does it say there?
