Thanks to recognized XDA developer AdrianDC, the “Low-RAM Property Patcher for Android” lets you bring a good number of Android Go optimizations to your device. However, it requires a rooted phone with TWRP installed and of course, it should be running on Android Oreo based ROM

Once enabled the low-ram property, you will notice the following changes on your phone: Flat recent UI, multi-users disabled, high-end graphics disabled, less recent apps cache, multi-windows disabled, minor notification icons changes, less logger buffer sizes (devs), no apps notifications access, zen access, VR listeners and picture in picture (PIP) accesses.

However, if you are unhappy with the low-ram property, you can easily return to normal mode by simply flashing the Low-RAM Property Patcher again.

Installation Instruction:

1. Your device must be rooted, TWRP installed and runs on Android Oreo based ROM.

2. Download the Property Patcher zip file from the XDA thread over here.

3. Flash the Property Patcher zip through TWRP and reboot your phone.
