I have installed Manjaro ARM minimal for uGoos AM6 Plus, installed it in emmc but there is a problem that Manjaro only get 944Mb of memory. zRam/swap 1.38Gb
Where do I need to configure to get the full 4Gb of memory?
Thanks

Can you share the outpur of this command?
inxi -Fzxi
Most user have now than 3gb usable ram on am6 Plus.
No there is nothing that needs to be done. By default it should show full usable memory with should be around 3+gb
output of command inxi -Fzxi

I hope to receive an update soon to fix the error of receiving low ram.
I also look forward to receiving wifi driver update
Thanks
If you don’t have wifi that means you’re device is different.
For AM6 Plus everything works perfectly fine on the image.
I suspect that you have AM6B Plus.
I will test AM6B Plus and see if it shows less memory.
Can you check the model on the back of your device?
My device is a real AM6 Plus, I have installed the firmware from uGoos, including a fresh install.
[The underside of AM6 Plus is like the following clip](https://youtu.be/D5Cq48cW_s0?t=51)
So the problem is that each market has different hardware?
CPU information is also not fully
I’m using Manjaro Linux XFCE 21.02 by fkardame with 3.65Gb RAM

This is weird.
Thats and old kernel and the ram is showing correctly.
With the version downloaded from Furkan Kardame’s homepage, my device gets 3.71Gb of Ram. Although it uses old kernel version, old driver, … But both eth0 and wlan0 and bluetooth work fine. But there is a problem that emmc script doesn’t work with boot partition. And when I update it also won’t boot.

As for the official version of Manjaro, it has limited ram and driver wlan0, bluetooth…
I hope the DEV team will fix these bugs soon in the next version release, thanks.
You need to check with him. 
I am using am6 plus as my build server and it is running 24*7 since almost a year now
I see more than 3GB of ram. I will be very hard to reproduce the issue you’re facing.
I will try a new image on sdcard and see if I can reproduce this issue.
If you and Furkan Kardame look alike based on your profile picture, wouldn’t you be him?
About updating Manjaro ARM 21.04 – XFCE causes boot failure, I temporarily accept the use of old kernel to keep 3.71Gb ram memory
If you update the new Kernel and u-boot, it will cause boot errors, if you can boot, you will also receive 974Mb of ram memory.
So I updated all necessary packages except Kernel+u-Boot

Yes was just kidding.
I am using latest kernel on am6 plus. While still using the original uboot from Android.
I am not sure if they changed the uboot in the new android image.
Can you share which Android image are you using so I can try it on am6b+
Thanks for reporting but it is very difficult to maintain support when the base keeps changing by the vendor after every update. The base as in the uboot and that creates problem.
Hello from AM6 Plus
updated to latest kernel 5.18.1 and it seems all good to me.
So the only thing I can suspect now is the uboot.
so the problem was just in the version of the OS ?
In Manjaro ARM version 21.04, the startup error when running the update command (pacman -Suy) due to updating the following packages:
:: Repository packages suggested as a replacement:

:: New dependency will be installed from repository:
linux-firmware-whence (for linux-firmware) -> 20220509.b19cbdc-1
Since the transition from the old version to the new version of the kernel/uboot causes a boot failure, Manjaro cannot be started.
The last version I used released by uGoOS was 0.5.1.
Then I switched to Manjaro ARM Minial 2204 (getting only 944Mb), but got low ram error so I tried Armbian (Debian and Ubuntu Server) but also got low ram error (getting 1.61Mb when using meson-g12b-gtking-pro .dtb default, and still 944Mb if using meson-g12b-ugoos-am6.dtb).
I searched for an older version of Manjaro ARM XFCE 2102 and got 3.6Gb of ram, then I went to your blog and used Manjaro ARM XFCE 2104, also got 3.71Gb of ram.
I have updated all the packages but got boot failure.
After trying many times I found the cause. Do have scripts converted from old version (extlinux) to new version (uEnv.ini). These are the packages that if updated will fail to start:

The best way to figure out this issue is from uboot version but it will be difficult to connect uart cable to ugoos as there are pin outs.
This is the position of the UART pin, the difficult thing is to solder the pin to the main to read the u-Boot information
UART on AM6
I think the safer way is to ask uGoOS support, then they contact the Dev Team to ask.
This is more difficult than just plugging in pins inside and testing it ourself.
They don’t share schematic or any information about uboot. Just device sample.
I think it’s here: mmcblk2boot0 and mmcblk2boot1 for dualboot management
By the way, can you edit this file so I can install Manjaro ARM 2104 from USB to emmc?
I tried to add emmc’s PARTUUID_Root to etc/fstab and extlinux but still can’t boot.
This error is only in version 2104 because it also uses extlinux
