  • Games will run smooth without any lagging.
  • Clear the ram memory to make your device faster.


How to Get More Ram on Galaxy S Cyanogenmod CM10 Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean and CM 9 ICS 4.0.4 Custom ROM.

Make sure that your custom rom is loaded with devil kernel or not. For that you can check Go to Settings->About Phone. Scroll down there you can see kernel version of present rom.
Note: So if your custom rom is loaded with different kernel then you need to change it into devil kernel version.

1. Download below zip files based on your Android OS.

For ICS get here.(file name Devil3_1.0.3-ICS_i9000_CFS_BLN_CMC_20120724.zip and you can also check latest kernel version and download it)
For JB get here. ( file version 1.0.4)

2. Copy the zip file into phone sd card.

3. Turn off the device and boot into recovery mode. For that you need to press and hold Volume Up + Home + Power button together.

4. When you enter into clockworkmod recovery mode. Select the “install zip from sd card” choose the kernel zip file which you copied earlier in your phone sd card storage.

5. The kernel flashing process will take 1 min. After that reboot the device. That’s it done now your device is fully working with devil kernel.

Note: The Above process is only for who don’t have devil kernel in their Custom Rom. If you’re custom rom is already loaded with devil kernel that you can avoid above process.

Follow below steps:

1. Download devil kernel config app from Google Play here or you can get apk from here.

2. After installing the app on Galaxy S device. Go to app list section there you can see an icon with devil logo and of that app is devil kernel configure.
2. Open the application there you can get Ram Settings Option.
3. Click on it and it will show you three options of ram CM9 368 MB, XL 391 MB and last one big mem 403 Mb. Select Big mem 403 MB to make it done.
4. On the top right side. Click on setup and it will ask you to save the ram settings.
5. When you finalized the settings it indicates to restart the phone in order to make the changes.

6. After rebooting the device. Open the task manager there you will get 403 MB of Ram.
Finally you unlocked more ram on Galaxy S Device running Cyanogenmod 10 Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean ROM.

  1. Hi,

    Any idea why an amount of RAM was reserved?

  2. Ram was reserved for GPU, video playing, internal apps and other resources.

  3. Most of us have many files in our phones and there are times that we just can't fit them all. When we accidentally delete the files that we want, we become stressed and depressed. But there are some softwares, even for phones designed to restore the data we lost.

  9. you can try to update your device to Android 4.0 ICS because Jelly Bean is still in development stage so there will be chance of more bugs in the ROM.
