Magisk | Disable Zram

Disabling zRAM using Magisk is a common optimization for power users who find that the default memory compression on Android causes micro-stutters or unnecessary CPU overhead, especially on devices with high physical RAM (8GB+). By removing this compressed swap space, you force the system to rely entirely on its faster physical RAM. 1. Identify Your Need

Step 3: Create service.sh

Make it executable (chmod 755 service.sh): disable zram magisk

  • /sdcard/DisableZram/ (temporary build folder)
  • Inside it create: system/bin, META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary (optional), and module.prop

Now go ahead—free your RAM from the compression cycle and take full control of your Android memory management. Disabling zRAM using Magisk is a common optimization

Manual Performance Test

Open 10+ apps. If your phone starts reloading apps aggressively (more than before), ZRAM was indeed helping. You may decide to re-enable it. Now go ahead—free your RAM from the compression

Method B: Post-fs-data.sh (Earlier Execution)

For systems where ZRAM gets re-enabled later, use post-fs-data.sh instead:
