Wondering how to give a new life to your old smartphone? The Android Go is definately the best way to proceed.
Google announced Android Oreo 8.1 Go Edition for enabling the smartphones with low-end hardware to run the latest version of Android without any hiccups. Many companies have used this feature by Google to sell low-end smartphones. However, the Android Oreo 8.1 Go Edition is not a completely different smartphone. It is an optimized version of the already existing Android Oreo. Also, what's interesting is that it automatically enables those optimizations based on the RAM the device has. In this article, we are gonna show you how to give your old smartphone a new life with a Low-RAM Property Patcher mod. Please note that this method requires a custom recovery.

Low-RAM Property Patcher mod is developed for users to enable or disable Android Go optimizations on the current Android Oreo 8.1 ROM on any device without any need of rebuilding it. It enables all the optimizations that have introduced on the Android Go project by Google. You just need to flash the enabler file using a custom recovery like TWRP.
The XDA senior member AdrianDC developed this mod. It will work only if the ROM developers validate the low ram UI changes. Heavily modded ROM's like MIUI might now have it. However, we tested it out on multiple devices running Lineage OS and it worked fine.
It will bring in various optimizations. Some of them are:
The steps to disabling the Low RAM optimizations are the same, except you need to flash the disabler file instead of enabler file.
Edit: After playing a little while with the Android Go, we figured out that rooted users can enable Android Go optimizations without flashing any file. They just need to add a line in their system/build.prop file. You need root to edit that file.
Just 'ro.config.low_ram=true' line in your system/build.prop file and reboot the device.
