sORRY FOR THIS QUESTION? MY ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS POOR... and i haven't seen the answer to this question in this thread, so :
with this apk, could we force refresh rate on a custom range like 1hz to 60hz for sample ?

Can you possibly screen record while changing the resolution?
Thank you.

I'm daily driving S23 Ultra since Feb 5, so for almost two weeks. I had an S22 Ultra before, which I always used on power saving mode with 96-24Hz adaptive refresh for months, using MaxHz app (3G calling trick after the One UI 5 update). However, Adaptive option on S23U reverts to capped 60 Hz after a short while.

My S23U is a fresh new install, no Smart Switch or whatsoever used. I now have to set my refresh rate High on the app and set it to 96Hz. This is causing me to lose on SoT and the adaptive screen technology. Dear developer, please take a look into S23U to see what's the issue that's causing its adaptive mode to 60Hz. I paid for your app 3 times on 3 different phones, and this is the first time I'm unable to use its essential feature.

There can be different reasons that can cause it.(1) If autorestart is enabled on you device or (2) adaptive power saving is enabled which auto switches PSM on or off. In either of this case, the trick needs to be redone unfortunately since oneUI5.
Thank you.

For S23Ultra, you can select 10-60. You can try the app to find out more.

Autorestart is disabled. Adaptive power saving is also disabled. And they both have been since the two week time I'm using my phone.

I'm certain that there is a bug on your app that is causing the S23U Adaptive mode to disable itself and the phone reverts to normal 60 Hz power saving mode behaviour. Only the High option on your app gets me over 60Hz on power saving mode, which kills the adaptive capability altogether.

Does it stay on Adative mode or it switches to Standard mode? What version of the app installed on your device?

It stays on Adaptive. But functions as 60Hz normal power saving mode behaviour. That's why I'm certain it's a bug.
Version 8.1.4.
I really appreciate that you respond promptly.

Try to check if it happens with 120Hz. You could be using the device on very dark environment from time to time which disables 96Hz on certain brightness levels (96hz on some devices has higher brightness threshold, this is done by samsung to avoid visible flickers when refrsh rate switches which our eyes are more sensitive on darker environment). Increasing screen brightness a bit most of the times can make it work again

I always use my phone on the lowest brightness level that won't cause me a hard time seeing the screen (adaptive brightness is always disabled). I used my S22U 96-24 Hz adaptive for over 6 months, no issue. But as you said, lowering my brightness level causes the 96Hz adaptive to switch to 60 Hz. This behaviour was definitely NOT present on S22U. I always used it with lowest brightness levels, sometimes Extra Dim used when the slider is already at its lowest, and no issue whatsoever.

What I don't get it is that you phrase it like it was always the case, but it absolutely wasn't on my S22U using MaxHz app.

The brightness threshold depends on the calibration of the display. Unfortunately ii is not something that any app can modify.

Try increasing just by bit. It can possibly work within your acceptable brightness

96 Hz just won't work unless my brightness slider is more than 20-30%. 120Hz seems to work at even the lowest brightness levels. Thought when I track the refresh rate, it does seem to take a lot more time to return to 24Hz after taking my finger off the screen.

I appreciate you taking your time to explain this.

Great news!
Here's a new alternative extra steps to bypass 60Hz limit on PSM on OneUI5.* using GameTools/GameBooster.
First, open Game Booster settings and ensure

• "Save power during touch protection" is turned on AND
• "Shortcut bar" is tuned on OR "Floating shortcut" is set to Touch Protection

Here are the steps:
1. Select Adaptive Mode while on power saving mode
2. Open any game (preferably from game launcher)
3. Press the touch protection button

in the floating shortcut bar and wait for the screen to dim ("Drag lock icon to unlock" text will fade)
4. Touch the screen and unlock
That's it!

Thanks to @InfernalDread for sharing this trick.

Thanks. I look into this. Seems unique to S23 ultra (or series).
Unable to replicate this in other devices I have.

Hi, am full version user of your app. So far it work just as intended. Although i find it indeed too jerky with adaptive 10-120Hz.

what i want to ask is, whats is the MW time recommendation for Quick Doze setting ?

It depends on personal preference but the longest MW interval and 0 (No maintenance) have the most battery saving but it has downside (more delay on notifications of some apps). Please read faq #17 for more info.
