I've received it on my X fold plus and I do think the global task bar is a great feature as ive got do used to it on Samsung Tab a8 ultra. What other features have you found that are useful. I couldn't find the new textured icons
Haven't noticed other major changes except the inside screen now has a set ppi and same is applicable to the widgets

    Your fix is going to be in the display options! There's a toggle when you select the frame rate to click the apps that use refresh rate. Pop in there, click YouTube and you should be good to go!

    Also how you make the browsers work at higher than 60fps
    Hey man, thats already been done. Youtube (and every other app on the phone) have been switched to 120 under the 'Apps that use 120hz' option and it still happens. The second it becomes a PIP popup box the whole system slows to 60hz until you close the popup box then it reverts to 120. Like I said, no other phone Ive owned has had this behaviour. Only Vivo phones.

    Well, it seems that I have skipped the last update and got a more recent one. Now all apps can be added to the sidebar and can be put into floating windows, which is just great.
    i went to their forum, nagged about their OS and lacked of multiwindows features and finally they listened.

    Finally successfully root my X Fold.
    System Version is 15.7, here's my original boot.img without patch, hope this is useful to you guys.

    And this is the 15.7 OTA package link which I intercept by wireshark.

    And is there anyone know how to connect Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 to Vivo X fold?
    Tried for a few hours, but didn't get any solution.

    What needs to happen in order to get an official forum? Is it time? Post interest? World domination?

    Just got my X Fold yesterday in Canada and loving it so far. I have 5G on the videotron network and forced the 5G radio by using the app "ForceLTE" in the Play Store. I previously used this app to enable 5G for my Oppo Find N and it has worked on both phones with China ROM. I change the settings to "NR/LTE/GSM/WCDMA" under set preferred network type. After a few moments I have full 5G signal.

    I also have managed to get all notifications working using the methods described by Greggles on YouTube. I noticed that even though notifications were being delivered, that they would not appear on the lockscreen. I isolated the culprit to be "Smart Notifications" under "Notifications and Status Bar". By turning that thing off, all my notifications started to appear on the lockscreen. I also ensured that "Google Basic Service Management" was turned on under "Accounts and Sync" which seemed to also help with notification issues.

    Lastly, I followed the steps to set up a Vivo account to set a default launcher from a 3rd party app also outlined by Greggles. I have been using Niagara for quite some time and it scaled beautifully for outer screen and inner screen (see photo).

    I can say that I have tried most foldables (Z Fold 1/2/3, Surface Duo 1/2, Oppo Find N), and the X Fold has so far delivered the best experience so far. It was well worth it. Happy to see many others enjoying too!
