Expand Your Old Android RAM Using Micro SD Card

Is your phone so slow that you can’t even watch YouTube? Yeah, it happens. As your phone gets older, a lot more bloatware and unneeded apps are stored on your device. A big reason for the slowdown is that these apps have background processes running even when you’re not using the app. So today am going to introduce you to software that can help you in creating Virtual Memory which works like RAM with the help of SDCard.

1. Check if your Android device support swapping

It's very important to check if your device support swapping, you can use Memoryinfo or Swapfile Check apps available on Playstore.

2. Partition your SD Card

Your Micro SD Card is used as secondary memory storage, you need to partition it using Mini Tool Partition Wizard 
To start making partitions, insert your micro SD card into the card reader and connect it to your PC. From there, you can make partitions in the card. Open the Mini Tool Partition Wizard and format the SD card you’ve inserted.

Now you can make partitions by right-clicking on the SD card. For a card with more than 4GB, select the partition as primary. Select FAT32 before formatting. For the next partition, allot at least 1GB. Click “Done.”

Again, right-click on it to make a partition. Select primary partition. But this time, change the file system. Instead of FAT32, make it EXT2, EXT3, or EXT4, accordingly.

To complete the partition, click “Apply all the changes.”


3. Link your micro SD Card with your Android device

Once you’ve partitioned your micro SD Card, the next step is to link it with your rooted smartphone or device. To do this, you’ll need to download Link2SD.
