@Justin Hi Sir. I’m Veera Muthu Selvan. i recently bought NOTHING 2a phone and Felt good while using it. I accidentally turned on RAM BOOSTER (12+8) and my phone rebooted. Then Immediately I turned off because I don’t need of using that. Is turning on and turning off the RAM BOOSTER will affect my phone? Or whether my phone will slow down?

Hey guys, I just get the phone 2a bought at Amazon for several days and remarked that RAM shows in the phone 12G + 2G given by the system (showed in the screenshot) while it refers on Nothing’s website the RAM booster 12G + 8G, could anyone tell me is the 2G given by the system part of the 8G Ram booster, please? If yes, why it is not 8G indicated in the phone ? if not, what is their difference ? where could we check the RAM booster 12G + 8G ? Thanks in advance for helping me in comprehending this topic.

Hey
Go in Settings->System->Ram Booster to change the space allocated to the additional ram.

Hallo all!

Can I just expand my own RAM, without any other consequences? Please advise 🙏

Justin Hi Sriram here… Kindly confirm me two things…. Firstly does keeping ram booster off… increase my battery endurance or any such associated benefits… secondly does keeping ram booster off disable the memory guardian feature also… because that appears to be useful and I would really like that to be functioning despite switching off ram booster

Tbh guys, I’d never prefer to use RAM Booster.

RAMs are designed to be read and written multiple times but ROMs i.e. internal storage have fixed no. of Read and Writes.

Using Internal Storage as RAM can degrade the storage significantly in the long run. So I suggest, if you are planning to use your phone for at least 3 years, then RAM Booster isn’t for you.

Just like in topic. Turn off virtual ram in phone settings if your animations are laggy and system working slow. I Discovered it yesterday 😃

turning on virtual ram puts load on processor and uses internal storage and RAM. so it does opposite of what it should do.
