hello saba19993 your problem can not be fixed like this could you briefly write some details like your device's: brand , screen type , model , etc...
after that your problem could be fixed easily.

Give this a try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529715
PS: This is a modded apk file of an older version of the YouTube app. And I cannot guarantee if it will work or not.
Hey I wanna know that Sony's doing the same thing like they did with Z5 Premium?
Like this is 1080p by default but only when you open in gallery and maybe amazon prime video app triggers the 4K?
I remember Erika Griffin mentioned that you can change the resolution but another YouTuber said it's 1080p by default.
Erica's video (Watch at 3m4s)
Mathew's video (Watch at 2m17s)
I think you can toggle it manually, pretty sure I've understood that and it only makes sense.
Not that you should want it to run in 4k all day but for vr or something and actual 4k content.

i want 4k in games ! is it not possible to render games in higher resulution ?
My understanding that the default to 1080P is a Android N default to save battery life, you can set it to 4K under display in system settings

You can change the resolution in the settings menu and if you choose 4K, all the contents will be shown in 4K, same thing with 1080P and 2K.

Are you sure? I am waiting someone to confirm it. Someone who had the phone and used it.

Sadly
"Fingerprint recognition not available in the US
Defaults to FullHD screen resolution for anything other than native 4K content
Battery capacity is not stellar"

Are you sure these guys even checked? Kinda sucks if it doesn't. I mean its something that really isn't needed. I owned the z5 premium and had it emulate 4k all the time with a kernel and then in the end just went back to stock but it its also something reviewers would target as an issue
I hope there will be simple hack to enable such a feature. This will be needed for example when you want to watch VR video with cardboard using custom app, even if content will be 4k by default app will not enable it.
Yea you can enable it to 2K 4K with abd. I just wanted to see if Sony had implemented to change the display res under the settings, Guess they did NOT.
Youtube now supports 4K resolution for the XZ Premium. That's what i like most!

Yea bro I saw this too awesome
I got another video confirming that youtube supports 4K option, which is nice.
No.
Nothing in Displaysettings - to switch the Resolution to 4k
Bad
Galaxy S8 has a switch Option between 1080 and 2k .......

You can try this method when you get the phone.
Plus I saw it in a video that Sony mentioned that they may include an option to change the resolution in future update. I think they should but I would just use it in 2K once I get the device.
yes i knew this adb trick from the old sony xperia 4k Handy, i make it so bevor i sell it, but this was not a good option, the apps/players for the VR 360 movies working bad, to small on the Display........you would not happy with this Settings
then Sony make a new 4K Handy, and what? Same fuc....k
4K only works in Sony Photo App and Sony Videoplayer........but this can not play 360 or 180 Videos corretly with motion, only still.
Techradar says:
"You won’t find a sharper screen on another smartphone, and unlike its 4K-toting predecessor you actually get the full resolution all the time. The Z5 Premium would only deliver the full 4K experience when you were watching video of the same resolution, whereas on the new Xperia XZ Premium it’s 3840 x 2160 all the way – from the home screen and browser to the app store and your social media profiles."
I think it is a mistake from Techradar, but what do you think, can it be true?

You won't get higher resolution graphics in any game by changing the resolution to 4k. All you will do is zoom out really far making things really hard to see and the ui will be tiny. It would only be worth it in games that use proper scaling and there aren't many aaa games on Android that might do it. Buy a 4k phone for videos and photos. Don't expect people to quadruple their graphics production workload for such a niche gaming market.

if you check mods section of the XZ Premium forum, you will find a ''trick'' (by ADB) to change the resolution to native 4K, with this method everything will be displayed in native 4K resolution (really appreciate this mod), hope I helped !
just got my S8 youtube videos are not playing in 1440p there is only a 1080p option.. my s7 edge has 1440p option what gives?
I noticed the same thing. Likely the YouTube app has not be configured for the ratio of the S8. Or there is a limitation per the network (wifi vs lte).
I had to change my phones display settings to 1440p first.... by default it was on 1080p.... now the 1440p option is available for me.
Maybe it's just me but I can't tell the difference anyway.

Go here and tell me if you have 1440p?
https://youtu.be/Bey4XXJAqS8
Also if you have your power saving mode on or performance options set to have your screen at 1080p (to save battery) this can happen. There is an option that is supposed to bypass this for apps like YouTube to enable 1440p only in those apps but maybe there is a bug and it's not working.
Then make sure you don't have limit mobile HD usage on in the settings. Let us know what the results are.

2160p :good::laugh: youtube vanced ftw
So after Pie's update, which i think relaxed the cpu throttling or something, 1440p 60fps is possible now using software playback in youtube vanced with no frame drops, average power draw is around 1400-1700mA though.. so not ideal, but good option if you really want that 1440p

Can you advise what version you are using and if there are any settings tweaks required? Can't get smooth 1440p 60fps myself

I think the latest firmware tweaked the CPU governor so it has more power..
Also I use latest YT Vanced with the exoplayer turned on
It´s great to have more than 1080p playback with the YT vanced app, but it crashes on launch as soon as I install the microG addon? Anyone got the same problem or an idea what I'm doing wrong? Would be nice to be able to log into my account..
use NEWPIPE programa
can play 4K youtube movies 60fps
as title said what the best way to get a true 4k Android UI/playback? if this isn't possible what is the best setup (custom/developer/ADB Settings)
I ve play with the density but the icons mess up a little even after clear cache from menu
thanks
Not unless you rewrite android tv interface

It streams video in 4k very well best way is to stick 4k video on local drive. It is also technically possible to stream 4k games which was actually possible before (in beta form.) You cannot change the UI to work natively in 4k from settings.
Change the UI to 4K in the Developer Option
