Hello all.
Redmi Note 8 Pro, MIUI 12.0.7, unlocked bootloader, root via Magisk.

Please, tell me, how can I make RAM management more effective?
Apps tells me that a low minfree threshold (after that android begins kill background processes) is 1,2 GB!

This phone has a 6 GB RAM!!! But it's annoying, every time I get 1,2 GB low - it is driving me crazy. I opened a browser, switch to a text file for pass copy, then switch browser back again...and it refreshes. It refreshes after 2-3 secs. Apps swaps after 2-3 secs after I switched them to background!

I'm even not a gamer!

Even app pinning doesn’t help in this situation.

I see that it's 1 GB free RAM, but Android begins kill my background services! All my apps loose their access to accessibility services, loose their permissions to statistics! New apps doesn’t start. I must reboot a phone to make it online again.

I see that there are minfree settings in build.prop file, but I can't understand, how can I change this minfree threshold. How can I make it for about 250 MB? 1,2 GB - it's very aggressive!

For some reasons I can't upgrade Note 8 to the latest MIUI because of some apps that I using will be broken. Is there a way to set another ram minfree settings in this phone?

Thanks all.
