Is there a way to expand the VM limit in Android 2.0 on an actual device? Using java.lang.Runtime.maxMem() on a Droid reveals a limit of 24MB, and I've written some code that incrementally allocates memory until failure to verify that figure. You can set the VM size in the emulator, but I haven't yet found a way to do that for a connected phone. Is there some type of a properties file on the device itself that can be modified?

A:
Not without modifying the firmware, or perhaps rooting the device.

Okay assuming that one had Root access how do you do that? Mcbain how did you increase the limit in the emulator? I am trying to run some custom software on a relatively custom platform and need to know how to increase the VM size.
