Themes / Apps / Mods [App]Galaxy Max Hz (Refresh Rate Mods, Screen-off Mods, QS Tiles, Tasker Support and More)

V8.0.0.2 in-app update:
-Fixed bug on per-app settings not being restored after turning off and turning on the screen.

What about forcing 1 Hz for extra eye friendliness when using ebook reading apps?

 

[neogodless]

I apologize if this has been covered - I tried to search the thread and it kept saying an error occurred.

I'm using an S21 Ultra with OneUI 4.1.

I installed GalaxyMaxHzPub, and successfully enabled WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS, which enabled the UI of the application.

However, with High mode setting, the phone is still acting as if it's on Adaptive, continually dropping to 60 Hz when not scrolling, on the home page, or in certain apps.

Is there something I can do to ensure it stays at a fixed 120 hz?

ETA: Clicked through the thread and saw the suggestion in other places to clear app data. Tried that, and at least so far, it does appear to be working. Of course, I'll update if I see the issue again.

Thanks so much for this. I have had two concussions, and I'm really sensitive to lower refresh rates. My phone options were a bit limited by this, but 120 Hz seems to be an acceptable floor for now. (My 90Hz OnePlus 7 Pro was a bit too low.)

ETA2: Yes - spoke too soon. After the screen shuts off and resumes, it still will often cut down to 60Hz. Is this preventable?

Please check v8.0.0.3 in-app update. Thank you.

So far so good! well deserved.

Hi @tribalfs
I found your comment about the Samsung s21 ultra regarding the missing 10hz option.
Im really confused by that. It states on the product page and multiple forum and blog posts (eg anandtech) the 10hz is possible and probably working, but not showing on the build in hz counter.

So are you sure, the minimum is 48hz for s21ultra?

Yes, S21U does not support 10hz PANEL refresh rate. Samsung is referring to a different definition of screen refresh rate for its marketing.
Where did anantech mentioned 10Hz on S21U?

They refere to there note 20 ultra article. Basicly the panel behaves the same:

Source: https://www.anandtech.com/show/16469/investigating-the-galaxy-s21-ultra-display

The panel of the S21 Ultra, much like the Note20 Ultra, uses a new hybrid oxide and polycrystalline backplane technology which is roughly equivalent to LTPO display technologies, and allows it to enable low refresh rates and seamless switching between refresh rates.


We’ve covered this new VRR (variable refresh rate) extensively in our screen analysis of the Note20 Ultra and how it works transparently to the hardware, and how the LFD (low-frequency drive) is able to achieve great power efficiency benefits when in the “Adaptive” screen refresh rate mode.


In this regard, the Galaxy S21 Ultra behaves the same as the Note20 Ultra.

And in the note article you can read:

Source: https://www.anandtech.com/show/1606...fresh-rate-display-explained-vrr-note20-ultra

Based on the output shown below, the LFD operating modes do showcase that it is programmed to work with Samsung’s advertised low operating frequencies, all the way down to 1Hz. The low frequency driver operation also seems to be a sub-mode underneath the higher level VRR operating modes, with these being the actual modes that the phone switches between in a finer manner using the MIPI-DSI interface.

But the artical is way longer and way more in depth

It says "advertized" but Anatech was not really able to confirmed it. .

It's most likely referring to surface refresh rate than the Panel refresh rate.

Samsung Galaxy S22+ and S22 Ultra refresh rate explained

There is a lot of confusion surrounding the Galaxy S22 series and the refresh rates of their displays. There is a lot of confusion surrounding the Galaxy...

www.gsmarena.com

Read about samsung's inconsistencies in it's refresh rate specs and acknowledgment of not using the standard definition of screen refresh rate:
"The display refresh rate was originally listed between 10 and 120Hz (10 to 120 frames per second), and we later opted to update how we communicate this specification in order to be in line with the more widely-recognized industry standard. Consumers can be assured there has been no change of hardware specifications, and both devices support up to 120Hz for super smooth scrolling."

Anybody able to get the adaptive refresh rate on Galaxy Note 20 to work on PSM as advertised through the workaround?

 

[Khalid Madkour]

I purchased a license about few months ago and everything was perfect. After installing beta on my s21U, the app cannot detect my premium license. can you help please?

 

[twinko]

Unfortunately the existing workaround is now blocked on OneUI5.0

is a new workround possible or is it unlikely?

It's unlikely for now.

Hi. Please see FAQ #2 for info.

 

[twinko]

That will vary. Start maybe with 12. Increase 1step at a time if you still noticing flickers on low brightness.

Hey @tribalfs

I did exactly what you said here and everything works fine when i set the hz range from 48-120.
As soon as i change max hz to 96, my screen keeps on flickering even when i crank brightness threshold to 100.

Can you help?

Sorry, that's beyond control of GMH. That's a display issue.
