Link to zram?

Interested in getting zram for the N7, seems awesome.
Two things: I can't find a flashable .zip for the nexus 7 so it'd be appreciated if somebody could stear me in the right direction with some of those.
Also, when I have flashed it, what values should I set it?
Thanks

Zram is built in on many kernels. You can use trickstermod to turn it on. By default it uses 10% of ram as compressed swap space.
However any real uses for zram were on older devices with limited ram so the performance gain may be negligible at best.

Maximum RAM used

Hello everyone! Having a 2GB RAM in nexus 4, I am curious how much max RAM have you people used. After running my daily apps like Facebook,8 tracks, flipboard, what's app, viber,xda, drop box, chrome, I have used a Max of 1.2GB RAM. Post your max RAM usage.

I have used about a 1 GB of RAM. I love having extra ram in a phone

Lol. Yup. That extra ram Will be much helpful for the future updates. My friend's one x's 1 gig of RAM is now not sufficient for him.
Imho, nexus 4's power has not been used to the full yet. Optimization needs to be done, both in hardware and software. I believe we have a hardware that will go into full swing next year
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Most likely key lime pie will have more optimizations hopefully and it should debut this year.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
That is true. Take for example the galaxy nexus was released two years ago and its going strong
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I dunno why 1gig of RAM wouldn't be sufficient but i don't mind having the extra. And KLP rumors say that the new Linux Kernel will actually be substantially more RAM efficient.

i usually have between 1375-1500mb free ram at any point of my usage(about 1650mb after killing my apps). i also use autostarts to prevent apps from starting up in the background, and i use greenify to tame wild apps.
I've seen about 1.2-1.4gb of my RAM being used. But there was someone who kept complaining that the nexus 4 would close apps even if plenty of space was remaining. i think that person even started a thread & posted videos to prove it .

anyone can fake that video. can even make it kill the background apps sooner when very little ram is used. all you have to do is change the memory management variables by raising them. plus, there are roms out there that do that too.
Yes. I feel like that nexus 4 kills certain apps or refreshes despite having enough RAM.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Using Elixer 2 widgets, I seen to hover between 1.2gb to 800mb free ram. I don't really close anything, pretty much just let it run on its own. Stock not rooted or anything. I have probably 50 give or take a few apps installed.

Ram use age is not only dependent upon the applications running... If you use roms like xylon or liquid etc there are options to show how much ram is used by applications, cache and one other thing which i can't remember right now.. So basically my ram use age in real life had always been nearly to 1.6 1.7 GB!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
is jelly bean optimized for 2gb?, Ive had apps close not crash and I wonder why if it needed the ram, would changing the vm heapsize help?
I checked and I usually have 700mb remaining.
My Galaxy Nexus ran perfectly with 1gb ram so its probably more like JB uses ram pretty efficiently. More helps tho.

That much RAM? you are on a custom Rom? Could you list your apps?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Maximum RAM used on my N4 was about 800-900 MB. Stock everything, with some services running like Facebook,Whatsapp,8tracks,Lightflow and a live wallpaper ..
As for the people wondering why some apps appear to "close" on their own despite having enough RAM. Its the app's fault, the code is not written well and does not advantage of Android's multitasking capabilities.

Mine has free 900+ mb

I don't use that many apps..and yea iam on a custom rom...but i guess u didnt get what i am saying...most of the time what ubsee ass ur free rom isn't actually free... It's being used by cache and other things...what most roms show u is only how much ram applications use..as u can see from my screen shot... The phones ram is never entirely free !

[Q] Optimize RAM

Hi Guys,
Is there any way to optimize the RAM on the HTC one to get better performance.
I know that supercharger v6 is around but haven't heard of anyone using it on the HTC one.
Any other options?
You could always flash a kernel that allows over clocking both the CPU and GPU, and messing around with the governors. Memory management is already rather efficient.
What ROM are you on?

Optimize in what way?
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Optimizing RAM use won't give any practical performance increases unless you're doing so many things that you're literally running out of RAM, which if you are, you really need to close down some apks.
Android free up space automatically. Have not yet or never on any phone encountered low RAM warnings.

More system available ram in kernel

Hi, yesterday I read all threads from mini 2, and I saw that the first cm10.1 have more Mb of ram, and then it have been reduced to 397! Why? @TheWhisp explain : ,,Because SAMSUNG knows the best"
Sent from my GT-S6500D using Tapatalk 2
Oh my God this is amazing. It's very strange.. I think that having 414MB in RAM with Mini 2 drivers you can't do a lot so TheWhisp thiked to come bak into 396/397 MB in RAM. Personally, I don't like so much Mini 2 drivers

Yes, but... More ram result more responsive system without lag and better performance. Correct me if I said something wrong.
Sent from my GT-S6500D using Tapatalk 2
Yes you're right, more RAM = better performance! :good: But I still think that it's an hardware problem or kernel or both (?)

I'm using my GT-I8150 here and it has 352mb of RAM with stock ROM, we can have kernels up to 416mb. Tho some chose to use the 352mb of RAM because its more stable. Developers made HM kernels which stands for High Memory and its 377mb of RAM. VHM for Very HM, RAM varies with 408 or 416mb. Personally, I'm using 408mb cos its smoother and there are lesser system crashes

Because the extra RAM is taken from other drivers - ADSP (video decoding/endocing and camera) and MDP (display, GPU), meaning these device have less available resources.

So does this explains about the CAF kernel?

So, mini 2 have 512 mb ram which is used for drivers and config. files, and the rest is used as avaiable os ram. But is possible to have at least 400 free ram? ( deleting the license and disclaimer text from sources?)

Don't get confused. Licence/disclaimer texts etc have no impact in ram..

I think that if you delete all useless (not needed) texts from driver files, you can reach 400 mb from 398 )

Nope. And that is because comments in source code are not included in final compiled packet.
