For some reason, the option to have the lowest refresh rate at 48 HZ disappeared for my S21. It's always there until I updated the version of the app. Do you know how to get it back?

I've deleted it recently and battery life seems better without it for me!deleted it because the latest version no longer went from 120 96hz to 48hz with screen on only 48hz again with screen off,not sure why!@adamlee2012 are you on the latest version and do you still have the 120/48hz screen on option?

That's odd as that was working for me but updated the app and cleared the data like tribalfs suggested and went back to 120/ 60hz

I have the same behavior on my galaxy S21 exynos and my Tab S7, both remain with a lower rate of 60hz, so I removed this application. Besides, I didn't notice any improvement in the battery, so in the end this application is useless.

Yeah we got an update which finally brought the adaptive to screen on 120hz 48hz which was great then it said to update not long after and that option disappeared 🤔 so it's like trying to get back to the version one before this latest one but no response from @tribalfs

Apologies on what happened. I will be uploading an update in an hour to fix this.

    [1] Enabled for premium users (with 2 days premium trial)
    [2] These features require a one-time ADB procedure (this is not root)[/TD]


    Info:
    This app targets older android sdk in order to control refresh rates without ADB setup or root. Just tap OK the dialog that says "This app was built for an older version of Android...." when opened for the first time. If OK button is not visible, just tap the blank space on the lowest portion of the dialog. If google play protect prompts during install that the app is built for older version of android and doesn't include the latest privacy protections, you can ignore it and proceed to the installation. For privacy related concern, please refer to FAQ No. 3.


    Important Notes for OneUI5.1.1 and higher :
    You also need to "Allow restricted settings" to the app:
    Open Settings > Apps > Galaxy MaxHz > Click top right menu and Allow restricted settings

    Important Notes for OneUI6.0 (Android14) :
    Starting OneUI6.0, installing the app on OneUi6.0 requires doing it via ADB using this command:
    Code:
    adb install --bypass-low-target-sdk-block galaxy_max_hz_v8.1.apk
    *The apk file should be inside the adb installation folder OR replace the file path in the command.

    Hello, with the new update, my s21 dont go to 96 in adaptative, only go 120 to 60 to 48, con i fix that ? Thanks
    Same here, any fix? Thnaks @tribalfs
    On my S21 in the adaptive mode, it can go up as high as 60Hz but it can go down to 48hz. I have to set a HIGH profile and set it to 96, but then it does not drop to 48Hz. So do I have to buy a premium for that feature?

    https://ibb.co/ygC5v9d
    In certain low brightness condition, the system prevents it to go 96Hz on S21. Samsung seems to have increased the brightness threshold for 96Hz in OneUI4.1. Unfortunately, GMH can't override this behavior. It reportedly works on power saving on lower brightness though as reported by @sideger below.


    I'm here to confirm this is happening to me also. I can only have 96hz on PSM and only at certain brightness of about 45%.

    I do hope it goes back to before where I can set around 20% ish brightness and still have 96hz.

    Samsung's Note20 Ultra Variable Refresh Rate Display Explained (anandtech.com)

    This article explains the refresh rates and the difference between the 60/120hz we see on the overlay (which I believe this app uses) and the 10hz figure quoted by samsung, which is at a hardware/driver level.

    The only real way to tell if it is dropping below 60hz is comparing power drain, and at the moment the S21U power draw at 60hz and adaptive is very similar. You can see in the link below, that the adaptive refresh is working, as in low brightness (<40lux) where the phone is forced to 120hz mode regardless of content vs the reduced power consumption when in >40lux.

    Investigating The Galaxy S21 Ultra New OLED Emitter: Huge Efficiency Improvements (anandtech.com)

    Also when I use the BT Sport app on myS21U in full screen, the overlay drops to 48hz, so it does work, just app dependent (i.e. YouTube stays at 60), and the UI seems to default to 60hz unless told otherwise.

    Then yes it should go lower than 60 or 48 :)
