Constant 120fps refresh rate ?

Greetings all,
The phone doesn't run 120fps all the time like for instance during the usage of google chrome, etc. You can check this by heading over to https://www.testufo.com/
On my OnePlus 7 Pro, we can enable constant 90fps via adb.
Was wondering if anyone has figured out a way to get get it working on our Rog Phone 2 ?
Cheers.

Won't this drain the battery?

No it doesn't, no noticeable drain on the OnePlus 7 pro.

Is it because the phone has variable framerate to save battery? Or because the display isn't capable of keeping 120hz?

Yes the same here.. Only after switching on the 120 hz in the topbar menu I have 120 hz also in the browser. I hope they will fix this.

Guess its a bug because when you activate it from the quick settings you get 120 fps all around. On my oneplus 7 pro, by default , on chrome and other apps it switches back to 60fps too but you can activate system wide 90fps via adb

yea, hope they get it fixed soon, sometimes after reboot it goes back to 60 or when you open and close the app. Whats the use of having 120fps if you only get to use it on the homescreen and asus's stock browser lol.

Hi, I'm thinking of getting the Asus rog 2 ultimate edition when it becomes available soon. And I would like to know if the 120 hz force mode could be activated like one plus 7 pro.
Since I had the oneplus 7 pro I had the 90hz force mode and I can't use any device without feeling the choppy effects of the 60hz. Be it iPhone or note 10 plus. And I hope someone has managed to find a way to activate 120hz ask the time.

I think it is a bug of Chrome Stable.
You can use 120hz continuously with Chrome Beta and Dev version.

You can choose, via settings, the screen mode: 60Hz, 90Hz, 120Hz. If you have 60Hz (default choice), of course the browser will run at 60Hz, no wonder about that. And, of course, the screen will drain less battery.
From the settings, you can choose to run ALWAYS at 120Hz. In some BATTERY test, tho, they showed how 120Hz ALWAYS will drain more battery. So, they suggested to use 120Hz mode only with X-Mode, so you can use it for games.
But, if you wanna use it ALWAYS, so even when you surf on the web via browser, you can activate 120Hz mode from Video Settings, in order to be Always on 120Hz.

Sorry for the noob-ish question, but is there any significant difference between a 90hz panel and a 120hz panel? I know that it's a leap from a 60hz to a 90hz panel, just wanted to know if there was any noticeable difference between the 90hz and 120hz.

Not much difference, but if I am going to keep it on 90hz then what is the point of getting the device over the ROG or 1+7. Also the battery saving isn't much you will probably get 30 mins ~ 1 H SOT vs a 60hrz constant refresh rate if I recall correctly. Any way it comes down to the type of device usage.
I will advise to try different settings and stick with the one that suites you. Personally I like to keep it at 120hz unless I am short on battery.

Plenty. Heck, I'd take this at 60Hz vs the 1+7 (or most any phone, for that matter), because there's plenty to love about the phone. Aside from the lack of U.S. support, of course...

120 hz refresh rate

Can i change my s10 to 120 hz refresh rate using one ui 2.5

I don't think so, the S10 has a 60hz hardware refresh rate screen, you can't do a software update and make a 60hz validated screen work on 120hz without issues.

It's not possible as stated many times before due to hardware limitations.

Question is there a way to control refresh rate?

currently using adaptive refresh rate,is there a way to get it to drop to 48hz or lower when not touching the screen and screen off?using the galaxy max hz app at the moment and when screen is off goes to 48hz but screen on only drops to 60hz.on normal adaptive mode video goes to 60 hz like netflix and youtube but when i use syncler (formally tv zion)it drops to 48hz whilst watching movies and tv on that one app,is it possible to get it to 48hz on other apps etc?cheers

There is a difference between the android overlay refresh rate (developer options and galaxy max hz use this) and the actual refresh rate of the screen which is at a hardware level. I haven't seen an app that can show you exact Hz at the hardware level.
Said with the caveat I'm repeating what I have read rather an expert

That's normal then, at higher brightness the screen will drop all the way down to 1hz to save battery but at lower brightness it will stay at 120hz or drop to 60hz in some apps.

it's not normal, it should be variable even at medium and low brightness.

Question Refresh Rate stuck!

Hello there
I'm having an issue getting around 3hrs only of screen time, and after monitoring the device for several days I noticed that the refresh rate is stuck at 120hz even if I'm on the home screen not touching the phone
After changing the refresh rate to 60hz the battery performance is now excellent i'm getting around 8 to 10 hrs
So the problem for me was that the software was not handling the refresh rate right and even while using the phone with 60hz it never drops to 1 or 5hz
It's STUCK to either 120hz or 60hz
Any suggestions about fixing this issue?
It suppose to have an adaptive LTPO2 screen...

Yes i agree with you, that is the same problem with me, I just noticed it stays on 120hz every single time. THAT'S WEIRD.
Thanks for letting me know, unfotunately, i have no solutions for it, I will be waiting for someone to find a method to fix it.

I think it can be resolved with a minor system update, it's all about this post reaching someone inside OnePlus.
Until then you should lower the refresh rate to 60hz in order to save the battery health "wear cycles".

Try smart hertz, work good

Unfortunately it requires the phone to be rooted

I tried the 120hz now under sunlight and noticed that above 80% of the brightness the refresh rate drops to 1hz while reading, above 50% and below 80% it drops to 10hz, and below 50% of the brightness it is stuck to the 120hz
I think if an update came to fix the refresh rate under 50% brightness the battery life would be great.

Are you on A.17 or C.21?
