Or is there any option to "Lock" certain apps to "Physical" RAM ?
.
Device : A51

I changed the Ram list to [0, 2, 6, 4, 8] and set it to 0

0 MB Vram is equivalent to Ram Plus turned OFF*

Edit ram_expand_size to 64 MB instead of ram_expand_size_list ... 0 ( 0 don't work )

[UPDATE : 1 Jan, 2023 ]
With OneUi 5.0, Now one can disable RAM+

Nope. No such option. Dedicate lowest possible space and then leave it as is.

Follow this video tutorial,

Now either remove the string 'ram_expand_size' or click on 'edit setting' and set it to 0. (By default, you have to put the value in MB.)

[Note :- If the string 'ram_expand_size' is not present by default, then create it first.]

There is no "i" button and no "RAM Plus (virtual memory)" written as shown in the video...
.
This means RAM Plus is not enabled? 🙂Screenshot_20220503-145943_Device care.jpg

Sadly no, that 'i' button was there in One UI 4.0 (and in devices which got RAM Plus through an OTA update), but with 4.1, it is replaced by 'RAM Plus' written at top right. It's still enabled and samsung being samsung didn't bothered to give an option to turn that off.

Yup, but it won't be functional until your physical RAM consumption reaches a certain level, most likely above 90%, and only certain low dynamic apps like calculator, dialer, etc utilizes RAM Plus feature, and honestly you won't even see a difference while it's on vs when it's off.
