How to increase RAM on an Android tablet

Tablet owners often encounter problems such as device slowdown. The reason for this process is that the RAM is full. This trouble can be easily dealt with in several ways. How to do this, read on...

Ways to increase RAM on an Android tablet

The first option is to consider freeing up RAM by optimizing existing applications. To do this, you need to open the list of used programs, go to the Applications folder (Memory Usage in some versions) and find out which of them are running in the background. Those applications that are rarely used or not used at all should be removed or disabled using the “Disable” and “Stop” buttons. After such simple operations, the tablet system will work more quickly.

REFERENCE! If you notice that after the “cleaning” the device continues to work at a slow speed, pay attention to special programs designed for these purposes. They take up relatively little space in the device and significantly increase operating speed.

As mentioned above, you can remove unused applications. However, there are programs that are necessary for the system to operate, and among them you can find “extra” attributes.For example, Google services, various network programs, etc. This can be done by obtaining administrator rights or using specialized software.

Another way to increase the amount of RAM is to transfer data from the device’s internal memory to external storage, namely microSD. Before using a memory card, it must be prepared. To do this, you will need a personal computer and a utility designed to work with hard drives in ext3 format. Using programs such as Acronis Disk Director, Partition Magic, Easeus Partition Master, you need to allocate a certain part of the memory on the card and create a new partition.

IMPORTANT! Make sure that this partition is included in the category of main or primary drives.

After that, return the microSD to the tablet and install the Link2SD utility using Google Play services.

Is it possible to add RAM to a tablet?

You can add these necessary gigabytes to your RAM using modern paging files. This is done by downloading special utilities. The most commonly used programs to expand memory are:

1. SWAPit RAM EXPANDER allows you to create a swap file ranging in size from 2 to 2.5 GB. Among the main features of this software are managing the volume of files, providing information about the applications used and sorting data across different drives.
2. Swapper 2 includes the same features as the previous program. The difference is that the latter option is intended for individual applications.

IMPORTANT! The utilities presented above require root rights, since they work with system and operational files.

Now you know that you can increase the amount of RAM on your tablet in several ways! This will increase the speed of the device and save valuable time!
