Can Sony XZ support 120Hz? - Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers

i saw this in a couple of posts, however i coudnt find any definitive proof on how to do it, or even if it was possible. If there is a way to do it, plz let me know. thanks

anyone ?

120Hz? Yes. Camera is 120Hz On stock rom u can record video in 120Hz (120FPS)
And screen is 120Hz too. So u can play videos/games in 120Hz. Dont know how and when its enabled on stock,
but on custom roms (AOSP & LOS based) it should be in settings. U can choose ouput 60Hz, or 120Hz.
But... U must wait because 120Hz for AOSP based is working by one SODP developer, he need just fix some issues, and he will release commits soon.
So its not working on AOSP based yet. But its on good way.

im sorry but ur mixing HZ with FPS wich is not the same...sony devices dont have 120hz display but camera can record in 120 fps,,,so it means that u can record a video in 120 fps but it will be shown on ur screen only in 60 hz got it?!u can play 120 fps video on a 120 hz device and it will be even smoother then 60 hz of course but thats only possible on Razer phone ATM.

Xperia XZ have 120Hz screen panel, but idk if stock fw support it.
All i know is, that guys from SODP (Sony Open Device Program) are working on DRS (Dynamic Resultion Switch) that can enable 120Hz screen on all Xperias with 120Hz panes on AOSP.
EDIT: DRS Switch is part of AOSP, but now it doesnt to anything. SODP working on fix, then it will enable 120Hz.
XZ has 120Hz screen, as razer phone. but as i sayd, idk if stock fw support it.

DRS Fix development is almost done, but paused before releasing. They working now on 4.9 kernel.
Maybe DRS fix will come with new kernel.

[I9003] Gingerbread 2.3.6 Camera quality Improved [Hacked] COMING SOON......

Hi guys,
I had made an camera.apk modded Beta version based on DDKP2..And i dont hav i9003 device presently..,so i need a skilled testers to find out any bugs that could arise..
This camera.apk modded version is totally checked, compiled by me and i found that i9003 could capable of recording HD videos at higher quality than stock camera.apk..Before it is opened for all i need testers ...
Here is the info what the modded version can do I9003:
1.Increased 720p HD videos Running @13mbps/30fps ( STOCK ) to 720p @20mbps/30fps (MOD)
2.Increased Audio bitrate to 192kbps/44.1Khz (MOD) quality Instead of 64kbps/16khz (STOCK)
3.Allowing camera.apk to use at any battery life
A lil problem..will upload soon once it is finally tested by me....

Hi,
i have a question:
increasing audio quality doesn't make that distortions in loud environment disappear, right?
This is most important for me...
I have observed that whenever we record videos in low light then vdo quality is not upyo the mark. It looks little bit blackish vdo. But in mid range or higher range nokia phone's vdo quality is much...much better. Can't we do anything about this???
Can i9003 record video at 1080p(full hd)?

yes i agree with vishal here ! and i have observed one thing ! i found my very old froyo 640x480 res video recorded in a club ! and the amazing part is that the video doesnt hav the locked fps recording rate which the new firmwares have ! so because its not locked at 30 fps it allows more light to be recorded and u can visibly c much more !! its jst odd that gingerbread did this ! even on kpe it used to work fine ! but now if i flash kpe it still doesnt work that way ! how on earth is this possible ?

@sharp87- heres sum info on WHY its too dark compared to other cams ! the i9003 video cam after KPE has framed a LIMIT to minimum 30 fps for video recording video ! earlier it used to b dynamic from 15 fps-30 fps ! i will upload a link of a video i had taken earlier in lower resolution and u can EASILY make out the difference of the frame rate during playback ! uploading now ! will edit this post with that recording
edit- old froyo video - 640-480 http://www.mediafire.com/?sxcjy8chro486rc
edit2- JUST recorded sample 640-480 http://www.mediafire.com/?f5fs2p2zr5efq6n

as shriomman points out the issue in GB is due to fix frame rate whereas froyo had variable frame rate which would change to less FPS/sec in low light, this would cause blur but will still get you clear image whee as GB gives priority to FPS thus performs very poor in low light.
GB is nothing but a higher version of crap coding from samsung developers.

60 fps?

What does the 60 fps mod/patch that is said to be a part of many custom ROMs do?
For me, I think 60 FPS usually speed up the UI of the system and other features. Try comparing a stock rom ICS to a 60 FPS JB rom. I have seen a difference when I upgraded from stock ICS to JMP V8. You can see the perfomance has increased.

Its mainly connected with the touch and is also called Project Butter in development sense...
It makes your display lot better responding than ICS...

fps [ no. off frames displayed by the screen in 1 s ], from a gamer's POV, is a measure of the smoothness of transitions or generally anything that moves on the screen. The difference you say you see suggests the ROM has been optimized to display things smoother. In simpler words, faster.

As I have said in the previous post, fps is a measure of the smoothness of display, which can have no relation with touch. Also, Project Butter is making apps load/pre-fetch content while the app itself is "animated into our display", thereby seemingly speeding up things. So the 3 must be unrelated. No off..

Pubg Improvement

Hello Friends, I am creating this thread so that we will discuss with each other our mods, ROM and kernel version and any such settings to improve the performance of PUBG. You can all share your opinions here and apply to others settings. According to me, the best performance I have received at this time from corvus rom and lawrun kernel 11 B4.

Yup the main problem is with pubg new update but u can try lawrun kernel. This kernel is great in terms of performance
Yes really working bro thank you so much
I have tried almost all the custom ROMS and kernels. Mixed them with one another but at the end of the, I have stuck with the Official MIUI 11.0.6.0 with NoGravity Kernel. I even tried various versions of Seshtation but of no luck, it gives performance but too much of frame drops.
I will give a shot for Corvus ROM and Lawrun Kernel as OP says its working smoothly on his mobile.

MIUI 11.0.8 ruined it all. Pubg totally sucks. I'm getting around 30-40 fps in Smooth+Extreme and that too in the lobby of the very first match let alone the actual match. Been using it for 20 months now and never experienced my F1 crying this much in pubg. Used to easily get around 57-60 fps always and what actually funny is that I was one of those who thought that people whining about frame drops were whining for nothing because I never had those frame drop issues on my F1 and here we are, this new update 11.0.8 ruined it all.

First of all u need to unlock your boot loader and a custom recovery.
After that search on xda or google lawrun and open site. If u are on android pie then download pie version. There are two build of lawrun kernel, one is Sk(stock build) other is oc(over clocked). I prefer over clocked version. If u want more details and queries please join telegram group https://t.me/LawRunKernel

I have stopped playing pubgm, no matter which ROM you use, whichever kernel you flash. The game freezes when there are too many players nearby or at close-combat. Horrible device to play a game like this. Also pubgm with every other update has been a pain in ass. Too big of a game and the same old pattern. Stop playing the game and try something else.

Enable for some third party app 90hz

I want 90hz enable in stock rom because I won't use 120hz because in working condition it won't last a day so if I use 90hz than it help me to use fast with 90hz and for longer use please make possible some how in stock rom it's behalf of many users who waiting for this kind of features.

90hz won't make much difference, maybe an hour or so nothing more than that. Your best choice is to use 60hz mode or get a power bank to charge your device on the go.

Gaming rom

I want to ask which will be the best rom and kernel combination for my poco x2 for gaming specifically
Plss help
Everyone used to say that the best gaming rom is corvus os.But in poco x2,i had never felt that.I used Corvus os with Hardrock kernel for 2 months and came to know its so smooth while compared with miui 12.Then I tried evolution OS and it blows my mind.No any bugs where found yet,best gaming experience(felt better than corvus).UI is so smooth and gives maximum fps in PuBG.I just feel like using a midrange flagship UI like NORD.
.issues.
-No FPS analyser
-mic are so low capturing voices especially in whatsapp(fixed in latest update)
-Sometimes Quick charging wont work

What kind of bugs, I'm currently using it so do you mind pointing them out as this update is a lot smoother than the last one.
I know about the wired earphone bug already, but the maintainer deliberately added it (atleast that's what he told) cause people were continuously asking for higher volume levels, he released a fix for it an hour after releasing the build.
