    After disabling ZRAM, your device will rely solely on physical RAM. To prevent the Out-Of-Memory (OOM) killer from murdering every background app, adjust the vm.swappiness parameter.

    By default, Android sets swappiness to 100–180 (aggressive swapping). With ZRAM gone, set it to 0 (swap never used) or 10 (very rare swapping if a swap file exists).

    Run:

    su
echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

    To make it permanent, add this line to your service.sh script from Method 2.

    for d in /sys/block/zram*; do [ -e "$d/disksize" ] && echo 0 > "$d/disksize" 2>/dev/null; done; ( [ -e /sys/block/zram0/reset ] && echo 1 > /sys/block/zram0/reset 2>/dev/null ) || true; /sbin/modprobe -r zram 2>/dev/null || true

    Inside the disable_zram folder, create a text file named module.prop. Paste the following content into it:

    id=disable_zram
name=Disable ZRAM
version=v1.0
versionCode=1
author=YourName
description=Disables ZRAM swap to free up CPU cycles.

    This method disables ZRAM instantly, but the change is lost after a reboot. Use it for testing before making a permanent change.
