Question Can the display be set to 120hz as well? - Black Shark 4

Thanks!

In games yes. Outside of games no.

Ok, so it's a setting in the Game Mode (or how it is called?). I add an app in there and it runs at 120? I need this option for Retroarch emulator, but it can not be set @120 inside the program.

You add the app to shark space that gives you options on screen refresh rate. It won't force the app itself to upscale to that FPS tho.

Game Booster working correctly?

Hi, I am just playing around with the settings in gamebooster and have the feeling that something isn't working correctly.
For example:
I edit settings (resolution) of Super Mario Run and save the settings.
Then I reopen the game, but after that I can't press anything in the game (no recognition of touch input)
Then I have to reboot the phone.
Kill the game from Multitask-Windows doesn't help.
Moreover Mario Run is listed as a 120Hz compatible game on Razer homepage. But with 120hz it stutters on my device. Have to set it to 60hz.
Do your game work correctly if you edit settings and reopen the game?
And how do you configure your Game Booster?
I'm using the custom settings and also experience odd behaviour. When switching resolution with summoners war I can't close menus via the x-buttons. They're simply not touchable.
I don't have to restart the phone for changes to take effect.
I did further testing. Yes, the only problem is switching resolution. It only works if the in game booster selected resolution is the same as the resolution in device settings.
Otherwise something is wrong with touch input.
And yes, reboot is not needed after change of game booster settings.
For summoners war only the 1440p resolution works even though I use 1080p as system setting.
So, it seems that some game have problems with resolution change in game booster.
3D rendered games seems so work with a resolution change, but some of my 2D games (like mario run) dont work with a resolution change.
Moreover:
Is antialiasing on, when the slider is on the left (greyed out) or the right (green)? (The description is a bit confusing).
Moreover do you see a optical difference between on and off? I cannot see a difference.

I am sorry mate.
No solution for that. Due of aging Adreno 330.
Maybe your internet has latency issues pubg requires 50ms of ping

first you need root and an terminal emulator
then first type the command: su (and grant superuser permission if not already)
and then: "wm size 720x1280" for hd resolution, or maybe you go lower and use 504x896
and then play with screen density. for 720p use "wm density 250" 200 for 504p
lower density values are smaller objects make objects smaller
aaand that's for at least smooth 30fps
search for low graphics 60fps pubg
I can't post a link here because it's not wished by developers, but I can promise you, it's worth it
maybe you could also apply a thermal pad on your cpu, did that to mine, no throttleing anymore
and undervolt! and don't overclock
that's all I can tell you

* I haven't gone lower than HD resolution in terminal emulator. Will try it today
* Tried overclocking - feels bit better, but heats up fast. So no use doing that
* Already using PUBG graphics (Did make a difference on 'Super Smooth' setting)
Overall its still not a good experience
Thanks for the info

1) For changing resolution/density - (Google for Change Resolution using adb for android)
Just need adb / usb debugging (No Root)
Reduce the resolution/density until you are satisfied with the Quality/Performance
or
First root your device
Download 'Terminal emulator' app from playstore (Google for Change resolution using Terminal Emulator for Android)
2) Search for ''GFX tool'' in playstore
select the graphics to super smooth , lowered resolution , 30 or 60 fps...and run game

Oh nice, didn't know that, it was not available last time I checked
The adreno 330 can run pubg mobile on hd-hdr at a constant 30 fps or more at 720×1280 resolution.
My friends Samsung s5 can run pubg on max settings using gfx tool better than my Mali t830 mp2 which lags on balanced or above. It runs at smooth medium.

3rd party apps lack of 90Hz support

I've been finding that some 3rd party apps lack 90Hz support. Most disappointing of which is Samsung Browser. I would think that screen refresh rate is independent of apps but obviously the phone is detecting something with these apps and saying "I should render this at 60Hz". Has anyone found a workaround? I'd love to use Samsung Browser but it's hard to go back to 60Hz. /firstworldproblems

apps do not have to do with the refresh rate. Perhaps they have low frames per second which could be improved by disabling ads or some other tweaks

Wrong. Apps do need to add support to show 90 frames.

I wouldn't say so. Might apply to some games. But not to standard apps at all.
The only apps that need support are games

Sorry If that was misleading. App developers need to optimize the app so It calculates every frame faster so it has time to show 90 fps on 90hz displays.

You said I was wrong and then supported my point. I also said frames could be improved but not refresh rate, which is a different thing. Apps display as a chain of images per secods. which is FPS. Refresh rate (Hertz) is a mechanical function of display that dictates how many times it refreshes a what ever is on the screen, image video, just single picture etc.. regardlessly if app has good or bad Frames.
You can look at a single picture at 60 or 90Hz but not at 60 or 90 fps because its just one image or one frame. Reading is a big tool

This is wrong. A poorly performing app and screen refresh rate are completely independent of each other. With this phone, the entire screen is switching to 60Hz with some third party apps. This makes the app less smooth as well as the OS in general (e.g. pulling down the status bar to view notifications). I really hope OnePlus fixes this soon, as it defeats the purpose of having a 90Hz display if it keeps switching to 60Hz.

There is nothing that developers of standard apps that use standard framework (not NDK) can do as there is no public API for that at all.
There is abstraction layer and apps do not need to deal with things related to physical capabilities of the screen, such as display refresh rate.
OnePlus already uses some auto switching logic for refresh rate, e.g. during video playback. The thing is their implementation is currently not perfect as they seem to be switching
to 60Hz even for videos not playing in fullscreen mode. So e.g. when you scroll FB and video comes into view, screen switches to 60Hz which is not OK (the same applies to web packages with embedded video).

FPS in games

I can't seem to get any game to play at 120 fps on my Note 20 Ultra. There's really only 1 game that I have that is capable and I generally can't tell a difference unless I really state and look for that extra smoothness but I figure I have the phone it should do what I want. My S20 plays subway surfers at 120hz according perf z but the Note does not and I can tell (barely but I can). Anyone else have any issues?
Edit: not sure if it's because it's adaptive refresh rate vs full time and so the games don't sense 120hz and so won't run at 120fps. If that is the case 120hz would be a true gimmick, lol.
Same here. Even the games that supposedly are 120hz run 60hz. Some say it is because the games are not utilising some Samsung compatibility api. I've tried also, as suggested, disabling game optimization. Still @ 60hz

I've tried 5 games that are supposed to run at 120fps but none have been successful. So the one true advantage of battery sucking 120hz isn't an advantage at all. Nice.

Well games that I like to play that do not work include brawl stars (only 90 but still plays at 60), subway surfers (I got this to play at 120 on my S20 ultra), and critical ops. I also tried random games on the play store including bullet force and some other random one...none of them played at 120. I did, since my last post try a game that finally did display at 120 fps according to perf z. But it's not a game that would have ever played. Wish there was some consistency.
What app are you using to show fps. Mine shows 120 for games. 60 for maps

At this moment, there are like 50 games that supports 120hz. I only tried injustice and it goes till 120 fps
It's on optimized, adaptive smoothness on and no adaptive power saving.

I use game plugins tools, you can find that on galaxy store and in game plugins, there is a toggle for perf z which is basically an overlay that shows CPU, GPU consumption, FPS & Temp

Oddly, I couldn't use it about 2 weeks ago. I could use it last week. And the. I restarted my phone and perf z is greyed out. Strange. Haven't updated the firmware. Not other changes in settings. Just says not compatible.
Edit: restarted phone and it works again.
Same here. I downloaded alto and It works on 60hz only. What to do to force 120hz?
Same here. I also can monitor ingame fps with the PerfZ-App, but in every game it shows a maximum of 60 fps. In Subway Surfers, the fps-bar goes up to 120, but it's half-full all the time at 60.
Another weird bug is in Archero. Every time when i'm not moving and there are many particles on screen, the GPU turns off completely (the GPU utilization-bar shows only "-" instead of a percentage) and the fps goes to 0. When i touch the screen, it rises instantly to 60 again...
I tried disabling the Game Optimizing Service and the Game Booster App with package-disabler, turned every power-saving mode off, tried to reinstall the games i tried (A LOT), even did a hard reset. All i can do now is to wait for an update that hopefully fixes everything... I'm losing my patience with this phone...
BUT: C.A.T.S Crash Arena is the ONLY game, that runs in 120 fps on my phone...

My games don't show 120 either.

Use game booster plus and set every game to max fps and restart you should see the difference. I can play injustice at 120 without any issue

Any 120hz working games for the Oneplus 8T ?

I tried a couple games altos oddysey , bullet force and dead trigger but none of them show the option for 120hz. I have show refresh rate enabled in developer options and it shows the games at 60hz. Why is this phone like this unless the devs for the game have to add this phone to there list. if thats the case then 120hz is only for social media which is good but i want it for games as well that should support it
check it and you re right . found a paid app AutoHz that seems to have profiles for all apps. if anyone has test it, plz share.
i also came to the conclusion that the "dynamic" refresh rate, its not so dynamic. even if you have the ambient display (always on) the rr its 120. this means that you drain your battery fast all day.
found it. the game is called vainglory and the counter shows 120hz
