dude seriously man, you explained each part well , I came here cause I wanted to know about extended ram/virtual RAM but sat through the whole video. The explanation you gave for clean pages and dirty pages -I saw what you did ,The subtle visual presentation of the topic even before you started to explain about it -4:00 -4:20 BRAVO!!!
Zram with a good compression algorithm compress data into the same ram. It create a ram disk in the ram to hold the compressed data for decompressing when needed. It does slow down phone when u use your internal storage as zswap. Ive allocated 4gb of my ram as zram to store the compressed data and it gave me better performance. It never swaps and compress data directly to internal your storage.
this video has been uploaded for almost a year now. it's so detailed. and the guy speaks english very well 😊 kudos sir! thanks to this info of yours now I'll be turning my virtual ram off. 😊
Thank you for the very informative explanation of the Virtual Ram! I have never seen it before, and was a little confused when I seen the 'Ram Plus' in my Samsung s22+ settings. I appreciate the vid, cheers mate! Much love from Australia 🇦🇺
For virtual ram or pagfiles there is also one misconception. You have to set virtual ram or page files according to physical ram in your phone or PC. If you have 6 GB ram in your phone than you have to set ram plus or virtual ram or page files 6×1.5=9 so 9 GB you have to set. Whatever physical ram your have on phone or PC, you have to set virtual ram or pagefiles multiply by 1.5, in ram plus you can get only 8 GB which kind of fishy I find as lot of users has atleast 6GB version of android phones.
@@unsavedprogress1419 so true. And this can cause many unspected issue. Only dev knows how this works. I try tweaking and study about paging file until i realize that this is a mess.
Very nice explanation. I turned it off on my phone as I'm going to use this for 2-4 more years. I monthly change downloaded videos (30GB+) on my phone so I don't want another thing decreasing my storage's life span.
Thank you for this, you have explained this better than any of my teachers and friends. I dunno where you're from, but you definitely are an incredible teacher and I hope you keep doing this 🙌🏻❣️
Yep, that's true. I didn't mention it since Pagefiles are basically swapfiles which is kinda different from swap partitions. I can do a detailed video talking about the differences between swapfiles and swap partition if folks are interested! ✌✌
@@GuidingTechEnglish Yes please do it, also I wanna know wheather creating virtual RAM (in pagefiles) will affect the life of harddrive in Windows like it does in Android, I think it will right.. at least on some level..?
Depends on your work. If you just use the virtual RAM for browser (storing tabs), it will help. If you use it for big games, it won't help, because the speed of the virtual RAM is as fast as the storage's speed, which is significantly slower than real RAM.
Bro what is ramless screen.... because when I contacted realme support team they told that realme 7 pro has a ramless screen so they cannot update the customization of Always on Display.
Hi. Typically modern displays have their own flash memory (referred to RAM for the panel) which it uses to access data. This data is basically the pixels that need to be displayed, and much more. Traditional displays do not have a RAM of their own, and are thus called RAM-less displays. The issue here is that since the panel used on the Realme 7 Pro is RAM-less, it always needs to access the RAM of the phone. This brings the lock screen into an active state, which is why AOD can't function properly. Realme India has promised an update on this with some software patches, so let's see if the company can figure out a way around this. Hope that helps! Cheers! :)
@@GuidingTechEnglish hi i learned that i can use pagefile on Android without root my pot lx 1 have 3gb physicall memory and 3 gb virtual i can use more apps same time and more fps in games
Really good video , for me I turn of zram bcuz I have 8 gb of ram ( in my opinion any phone above 6gb ram which is using a custom rom doesn't need zram )
Companies are not very honest about this feature. Android knows how to manage memory, and depending on which phone you use, it should be optimized already. Ram extension is not all that grand, especially with flash memory's volatility.
Does zram affect the cpu perf when gaming? I have updated my hot 10s to latest May patch(v410), and I noticed a sudden rise in heat, a minimal fps drop in gaming but not that noticeable, only on long term gaming, (prolly after 30mins)
Well, i think we shouldn't use our devices internal storage as ram, if we really want to do that, we better purchase a powerful sdcard so when its lifespan ends, we can throw it and purchase a new one, thats a right thing according to me, we shouldn't end our phones internal storage lifespan too early😉
Thank you for explaining why the extension ram was killing my phone. I had problems with my phone, people told me it was because i turned on the extension (i had no full on idea how ram works) i turned it off and it's well now. I looked you up to figure out why it was happening. From your explanation i understood that i was technically speeding up my phone's aging.

Custom roms users knows this from 2010 to 2012😂👏🏻truh
Right 😁😁 i m still using it
yeah but internal storage back then wasn't as fast as lpddr4 ram. Now, we are approaching that speed and thus it's being officially implemented
@Tamash Jyoti Neog who told u root can kill phone ???
I had only one phone which I bricked and now I'm not trying it again
@Tamash Jyoti Neog if it kill your phone then revive it

My phone has 4gb ram but the ram is always full and the UI is always laggy.
So adding Virtual Ram will help?

@@umutkayabal7087 how, teach me pls
Virtual Ram is basically a gimmick
Today we get 12 gb which is more than sufficient
In a way, yes. Does it give you more RAM? No. But does it give you more FREE RAM when you need it? Yes.
Great explanation dude! Thank you
Wow,that was a clear answer bro,thanks
Thanks much appreciated 🙏 👍
Very clear and interesting explanation. Thank you.
Thank you. That was helpful.
May confusions brought me here. About virtual ram from a newly released smart phone brand.
Thank you Sir, this is very informative.
How much will it effect the lifespan?
oh dang there is no way to turn off RAM plus on samsung only can select 2/4/6/8 gb
if it often used how much it will affect the device?
So does me changing my virtual from 2 gb to 4gb do anything for me? I often play games that require a lot of resources.
Great video thanks for the advice
So i was looking for something to boost an old tablet and found usefulness for the new one
We must lower or raise the ram for big games that needs fps? Nice vid
Really good video , for me I turn of zram bcuz I have 8 gb of ram ( in my opinion any phone above 6gb ram which is using a custom rom doesn't need zram )
Thank you for teaching this❤️
I'm going to turn off virtual RAM extension on my realme gt 5g now 🙂
Why?
@@Sive.dot1 For live streaming & performance reasons. Real RAM in my opinion is better than virtual swap RAM

Lol zram has nothing to do with cpu performance. If your cpu sucks or your system sucks then it SUCKS
Yeah encoding and decoding for zram will use cpu performance. Hence it will make your phone heated and battery will drop faster
@@kuroneko-_5570 yes it does😂
@@impeace1012 not exactly, the way Zram is implemented on android is different
Does turning off memory extension (virtual ram) increase battery 🔋 life?
Possible because it doesn't need to access the internal storage all the time that cost battery reloading the app allthe time.
Thanks a lot! You rule!!
Used to talk about this in primary school 25 years ago
If im not mistaken froyo era where it started
Well, i think we shouldn't use our devices internal storage as ram, if we really want to do that, we better purchase a powerful sdcard so when its lifespan ends, we can throw it and purchase a new one, thats a right thing according to me, we shouldn't end our phones internal storage lifespan too early😉
basically if you dont need it just dont use it but if you gaming and it crash or lagging i need to active it?
My A52s 5G just got the update it says I have 4g of virtual ram I originally have 6gb
So if i buy a fast memory card can i turn it on (virtual ram)?
Should I turn off extension for my Poco x3
Hola buenas Tardes. ¿ Zram en Android, se puede instalar sin ser ROOT? . Consume mucha batería? . Gracias y felicitaciones
for thumbnail you should have put ram or scam
Thanks i understand now

finally I can download more ram
This is fantastic Varun, you have put it down so well. 👏
Great info
Thanks for the info greatly helped! I game on my phone and turned it on thinking i should but now I can turn it back off....
Bahi yes ya no ma batto ki increasing virtual ram is good or bad on android
Thank you brother
Is there a way to turn this off???? I areadu have 12gb ram on my 256gb S22 Ultra
I just tried it on my phone 8gb+8vr and it works fine
LINUX ALSO USES PAGING
you just make it cristle clear
I hv 4/128 android, so virtual ram is useful for me? Ciz it can extend to 6 gb ram
On 4gb ram it will definitely help, anything over 4gb, you might want to consider turning it off.
tldr, on or off pls ?
Yeah but it's always on i can't turn it off on Android 12
Clearly Explaned
Full review of iqoo 7 bro before may 1st please
Nah virtual ram actually created by some simple people coz ram was too low decades ago untill added to android this recent years ago
My question is will it lessen the lifespan of the ufs storage?
No
Yes
No and Yes 🙄
Gracias. 👏
Thank you
I already deduced its reality just now but I want to listen to other people's take on this one.
Resistor and cache memory more faster than Ram
so that's why the new 2/3gb phones are so cheap nowadays
bruuuh nice video
Youre storage gets hurt by virtual ram
Seriously? Can you improve your voice stability?
