Warning: This application is deprecated as of Android 5.0. I see that alot of people are still using it So i will be doing a reboot on this application in the future to support higher versions of android for legacy unlocked devices. Zram virtual memory is outdated and may not be existent in the newer device lineup but may be usefull to legacy unlocked devices with custom software on them. The paid version of this application no longer exist.

Requirements
-Root (Optional for some features)
-Kernel with VM/Zram support
-Kernel and Device Support may vary.
-Zram Settings was made for devices who generally rely on VM/Zram to run properly, generally legacy devices with 512MB of ram.

Zram Settings is a light weight Zram configurations based application for Zram compression enabled kernels. This tool will allow users to toggle compression of Zram usage as well as configure VM usage. Also allows for custom overriding compression ratio. Aside from Zram settings, this application also now includes virtual memory management of how your device uses your device's physical memory. This application is based off of the memory management of the CM Settings.

Supported Roms: CyanogenMod, AOKP, Pacman, CNA, Custom AOSP based roms.
Usually Xperia devices rely on Zram/VM (EX: Xperia U)
Usually HTC devices do not use Zram (EX: HTC ONE)

Your kernel needs to support the following partitions in order to fully take advantage of this application...
"/sys/block/zram0/disksize"
"/sys/block/zram0/compr_data_size"
"/sys/block/zram0/orig_data_size"
"/sys/block/zram0/mem_used_total"
Version 5.0
-Sliding Menu
-Holo Themed
-Application rewritten from ground up
-Simplified activities that are more powerful
-New Icon
-Kernel Settings merged in Swappiness Settings
-Zram Usage Status updated
