Hey guys. Is it possible to increase tab's performance by creating swap-file in internal memory? If so, how to make it work?
I use stock 2.2 firmware (rooted)
I was trying exactly the same thing yesterday, but not to speed up my Tab, that with Gingerbread is already very satisfying, but to give more memory space to my Debian chroot.
Unfortunately, the kernel I'm using (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=885734 ) doesn't seem to have swap enabled, and probably also the stock Gingerbread kernel hasn't it.

Swapiness is the name. Try this.

Thanks for your answer. Maybe you were refering to Swapper or Swapper2. These application make easier the swap setup by building a swapfile and starting swap on it. But unfortunately they cannot do because swap support on the SGT kernel seems not enabled.
There's no application called "Swappiness" or "Swapiness".

Im sorry for opening this new thread as maybe someone already post it before.
but i really upset with my slow phone... anyone could help how to make it fast?
maybe a complete step to fix this problem?
Install the voodoo lagfix (look in the application development section for the project voodoo link)
and download a task / memory manager like ATK to improve RAM availability. Easiest way is to get one that has the auto kill function but its a personal preference to most people.
1) lagfix
2) minfree adjustment (autokiller or minfreemanager, both available free in market)
3) stock apps cleanup, ones u don't use.
4) don't install more than 150 apps.
5) don't install many apps that need to run in background.

Hi everyone,
I have this phone SGS i9000 but i am constantly running out of memory. Now i got the new Sims game which uses so much ram... Many times the device just starves for ram and reboots itself...
Is it possible to add more HARDWARE ram to this device?
I use Darky roms on my device and checked if i can enable some sort of swap but it is not possible or reasonable...

it's almost impossible without soldering knowledge and a LOT of investigation
just forget a bout it
How would you add this to the PCB? I don't think there is any space left. This is not plug and play, more an embedded device. And how about the other hardware? You also need additional controllers and such things.
--> Impossible.
If you want extra ram you have to buy a new phone
What about swap memory?
hm.. i9000 is realy a low ram device.. i sell my sgs and buy a sgs2 .. a great device
my girlfrend have also 500mb ram device, she use "rammanager root" (search @play-store) it have nice settings and work realy good..
try the demo/trail.. use hardcore game mode for the sims maybe it helps a little bit

Nope, 329MB is user accessable, 128MB is reserved for the graphics card. 55MB is inaccessible because it prevents the device from freezing up when ram is near full.
I will never buy device with less then 2GB of RAM anymore then!
Give the poor device a break, its old already.
Mate I'm running a tsunami ROM in my sgs and it has an 392mb of ROM. And this solved all my ram problems
Tried zRam?
I have an S plus (nearly the same) and i have 358mb of RAM..
Wtf guys this was posted in March, why did you revive this thread?

Hi,
Replying really late , but there is a possible way >> check below -
What advantages of increasing ram on Galaxy S
Running multiple number of application at background.
Games will run smooth without any lagging.
Clear the ram memory to make your device faster.
How to Get More Ram on Galaxy S Cyanogenmod CM10 Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean and CM 9 ICS 4.0.4 Custom ROM.
Make sure that your custom rom is loaded with devil kernel or not. For that you can check Go to Settings->About Phone. Scroll down there you can see kernel version of present rom.
Note: So if your custom rom is loaded with different kernel then you need to change it into devil kernel version.
1. Download below zip files based on your Android OS.
For ICS get here.(file name Devil3_1.0.3-ICS_i9000_CFS_BLN_CMC_20120724.zip and you can also check latest kernel version and download it)
For JB get here. ( file version 1.0.4)
2. Copy the zip file into phone sd card.
3. Turn off the device and boot into recovery mode. For that you need to press and hold Volume Up + Home + Power button together.
4. When you enter into clockworkmod recovery mode. Select the “install zip from sd card” choose the kernel zip file which you copied earlier in your phone sd card storage.
5. The kernel flashing process will take 1 min. After that reboot the device. That’s it done now your device is fully working with devil kernel.
Note: The Above process is only for who don’t have devil kernel in their Custom Rom. If you’re custom rom is already loaded with devil kernel that you can avoid above process.
Follow below steps:
1. Download devil kernel config app from Google Play here or you can get apk from here.
2. After installing the app on Galaxy S device. Go to app list section there you can see an icon with devil logo and of that app is devil kernel configure.
2. Open the application there you can get Ram Settings Option.
3. Click on it and it will show you three options of ram CM9 368 MB, XL 391 MB and last one big mem 403 Mb. Select Big mem 403 MB to make it done.
4. On the top right side. Click on setup and it will ask you to save the ram settings.
5. When you finalized the settings it indicates to restart the phone in order to make the changes.
6. After rebooting the device. Open the task manager there you will get 403 MB of Ram.
Finally you unlocked more ram on Galaxy S Device running Cyanogenmod 10 Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean ROM.
Rgds,
Kaustav.
You can use swapper from the Google play.
Swapper create a file .swap on your sdcard and this is the RAM :fingers-crossed:
I have samsung galaxy s plus, cyanogenmod 10-20121226-ivendor-alpha6-ariesve, android version 4.1.2, kernel version [email protected] #112...how can i install this devil kernel to increase memory ram to 403? Forgot to mention that i have JellyBean

If you do install that kernel you brick your phone. Check the Samsung galaxy s plus section please

This is not really a viable option...
The flash drive is infinitely slower compared to RAM.
Any game demanding more RAM than can be accessed without writing to/from swap would be unplayable.

Lack of RAM is what made me upgrade from this glorious phone to the S4.
As time went by, Android apps got bigger and heavier, making the Galaxy S unusuable alas.
I recently increased my phone's internal memory to 1GB+ and now I am thinking to increase my phone's RAM size to 1GB+. Is there any way to do this?

You can't increase the actual ram, but you can get SWAP. Erm SWAP is a partition that will be created on your SD card on which the users inactive processes will be moved.This will free up physical ram for the OS and the active applications

I had a galaxy mini run brought in Singapore in 2012 running on Froyo previously, and I had upgrade the firmware to Gingerbread in 2014 and it working fine. I had left it for sometime and now I tried to used it to run some simple program it always prompt that running out of memory and hang. I had perform factory reset to erase all the app and only running on one app also encounter problem. Could you please help, to show me how can I make make this phone working again?

Try out some good roms
Also have some hands on some apps which requires root access here
First install CWM and then find some awesome ROMs and install them!
Install a custom kernel (Battery Extender i think is the best available for stock rom) and a cpu controll app. Than mod the build.prop file in system to get better overall performance. Also you can install Adrenaline Engine or other script to improve performance.

If you want to stay on your stock rom for a bit longer:
-> getting rid of all the Samsung bloatware and all the unnecessary apps that are clogging up the phone.
You might even notice a boost in responsiveness by doing that, at least it seemed that way to me back in the day.
Use Titanium Backup to do so and look up what apps are save to delete before (!!).
From memory some safe-to-delete apps are: all of samsung apps, gallery (replace it first), radio, sms app (if you replace it first), browser (replace it first)
Partition your sd card if you have one and use that partition to increase your internal memory.

Hi,
My s5570 came with Froyo which I upgraded to Gingerbread stock. Unfortunately it only has enough space to install Whatsapp and another app.
Can you recommend a stripped out ROM that will run recent apps?
Thanks,
Joe

root, partition your sdcard and install link2sd (or other sd-ext script). it's the only way if you want to install much app (that is now have big size)
