Hi everyone,
Has anyone tried to bump up the frequency of the ROG 5 from 144 to 160? I recently learned about this from a different XDA article that shows this hidden feature on the ROG 3. Link is below:
The ASUS ROG Phone 3 has a hidden 160Hz refresh rate mode - Here's how to activate it
Out of the box, the ASUS ROG Phone 3 supports up to a 144Hz refresh rate. However, there's a hidden 160Hz display mode that you can enable.
www.xda-developers.com
I am running on the WW latest version. No rooting or unlocked boot loader or anything like that.
I am thinking that could have a major impact to my gaming performance... since I saw big gain in going from 120 to 144.
Thanks in advance!
No, ROG5 doesn't have that option, only works on ROG3.

So much stuff OnePlus broke for no reason at all.
(This 1st point is for all OnePlus devices on Android 10)
1. The screen calibration from Android 9 was perfect! OnePlus broke it in literally every OnePlus device and made it hella uncomfortable to my eyes just to use the same damn phone. Vivid and all are dull and Amoled Wide Gamut is too damn harsh.
(I gave so many feedbacks but thanks to OnePlus's arrogant behaviour towards its customers and not fixing it)
2. GCams which made me love my OnePlus 6 are not working properly.
SuperResZoom is broken.
Gcam, only one version works now and can't use the cloned GCams which worked flawlessly on OOS 9.0.9, now just stops the HDR+ processing at 75% and other versions don't work on OxygenOS 10 but works fine on Android 10 custom roms.
(broke it for no reason at all!)
3. Auto Brightness takes painfully 10seconds+ just to adjust. (broke it for no reason)
4. 2.4ghz Wifi Link speed is still capped to 65mbps- 72mbps. After rooting and flashing a Magisk module namely "WIFI BONDING" the link speed goes upto 300mbps.
This issue I've only faced in my OnePlus 6 and my other phones like Redmi K20 Pro, Poco F1, Samsung Galaxy Note 9 all have 150mbps-300mbps by default.
(Again gave so much feedback yet no response from OnePlus)
5. Front camera now doesn't allow to zoom at all. (broke it for no reason) (not a big one tho)
6. Also Much worse battery life and slower charging times.
OOS 9 - 0-100% takes 72-75minutes.
OOS 10 - 0-100% takes 90-95minutes
Battery life - approx 12% per hour on OOS 9
Battery life - approx 18-20% per hour on OOS 10
Other than that OnePlus 7T does not have their own OxygenOS Special Navigation Gestures. Like what? Why? The little things that made me a loyal buyer and fan of OnePlus, they are just removing that for no reason?
I made my friend buy a OnePlus 7 Pro even tho I knew the prices would fall like crazy but I still asked him to get it at 53k because I trusted OnePlus and I was a genuine fan of their work and I loved their software, the lovely OxygenOS and the OnePlus brand which listened to their consumer's problems and then gives fixes.
But now I'm done.
Guess I'll stick to Android 9 on this OnePlus 6 and will get a S11 or anything else but OnePlus.
OnePlus is losing all their loyal fans by this stupiduty just like they lost me. I did recommend earlier but now definitely a big NO.
Let's see if they fix these or not. If they dont then surely a goodbye to them.

Every single point is very very true!
Anyone having problem with screen cast. I think this one broken too. Cant connect to my LG TV using screen cast from QS and setting. But Youtube cast button works with no issue. Works perfectly before in android 9.
More reasons why i will stay on 9.0.9.....it just works!
They've already lost my trust, I've been with OnePlus since the op3, op6 now and this is my last one. I'm going with Xiaomi
This is why I am staying on 9.0.9 and have not attempted to once even try and upgrade to 10. I have 10 on my Pixel 2 XL, works FLAWLESSLY. OP has really dropped the ball here and if they continue on this path, I'll be looking for another phone in about a year when I want to upgrade that is made by someone else.

Screencast is woking fine on my end with samsung tv and QC. I am on beta 32.
Why my Gboard keyboard raised up for at least one key height?! Is that a bug?
Took me sometimes to fix the clipboard back thx Android Q...

The only issue I have, that I know is, Google Photos app. It casts but stays at the splash screen. multiple chromecasts and built-in chromecast Toshiba TV.
Screen casts no issues here.
OB1-3 and stable 10.3.0
can I somehow disable the notification that a system update is available? I don't want to upgrade after reading this but the notification sticks and cannot be swiped away.

No. That is indeed intended because google is featuring it's on gesture control by now and wants users to not trigger gestures while using the keyboard.
There is a rudimentary fix, you can google for it. But it involves messing around with adb to change the dpi or some kind of thing like that.

Thx for the answer dude! Poss takes sometime to adapt it.
How about the left screen (widget page) that only the upper screen touch work sometimes? It is fix by rebooting the phone but can't do it everytime right?!

you can freeze that system app using titanium backup or similar. I do not recommend uninstalling it fully though.
I have termporary slow downs. It seems like there is a memory leak, either in android 10 or oxygen 10.3.0.
Anyone else has the same?
1. Wide Gamut - cool - looks good.
2. Arnova Gcam beta works perfectly.
3. Takes around 5 sec for me.
4. Agree
5. Shouldn't use digital zoom in the first place.
6. Never tested\cared.
7. Battery life does seem a bit worse, flashing custom kernel made it better.
My girlfriends S9+ is still on android 9, has issues with dark netflix videos, freezing in general occasionally, whatsapp broke once completely and had to reinstall a few times to make it work, took them over a year to fix the camera light glare, no working gcam.
Gcam looks same and sometimes better than S9+.
Non-English character are not displaying properly.
Basically Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Tamil and etc are not displaying properly. Anyone got a fix?

Which method did you use? I don't care about losing data. Just want to keep unlocked bootloader and root the easy way, via TWRP if possible. I basked up my 9.0.9 system before going to 10.3.

1. Try out Wide Gamut and have a look at Reds. They burn your eyes, too damn saturated.
2. 1 Gcam works fine but if I want to access the Aux camera or MJL and Xtreme's both we can't.
3. Used to be 2secs in OOS9
5. Still having a option and then removing makes no sense.
7. There shouldn't be a need to flash a custom kernel when it was pretty damn goood on stock one.
Hi everyone,
I just updated my OP 7 pro yesterday to android 11 with oxygen OS 11.GM21AA and have noticed this bug;
If you set the screen resolution to FHD with refresh rate of 90Hz and then lock the display, the screen goes black and unlocking the phone again can only be done blindly as the lockscreen does not show. If you do manage to get past the lockscreen you'll find that the display scaling has now shifted to much smaller icons.
Restarting the phone fixed this issue until you lock the display again.
This bug does NOT occur when resolution is set to QHD even when autoswitch is enabled.
I usually have the phone in FHD because it lasts me longer at work that way but am now unable to since this update..
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Thanks!

Been that way since beta 2.
I don't see 1+ fixing their "stable" Android 11 as they want you to upgrade to OnePlus 9 pro.
That is why Android 11 on 1+7pro is so buggy. Beta 4 was more stable and didn't have this bug (tho beta 2 and 3 had it).
either deal with it or downgrade back to 10 and upgrade to beta 4.
or better yet upgrade to a different phone like the 1+9 pro (tho being around the same price as the S21 Ultra I moved to the S21 Ultra)

Not quite - it's likely Beta 4 hasn't been incorporated into Stable 11. Be patient, we'll get there!
Hi. A few days ago I tested the hdmi capabilities of OnePlus 8t and I came across an issue - 60hz cap. As far as I am concerned - it happens on all phones except nubia redmagic, so it seems to be a software limitation. Is there any trick to unlock 120hz?

rog 3 (used to have uncapped fps):
I just got the gt neo 2 yesterday and i found that its throttling too aggressively.
Noticed it while playing game Mobile Legends, first few minutes it runs fine but after that it starts to stutter a lot.
My 3 years old mi 8 with snapdragon 845 can perform way better (rooted and thermal engine diaabled).
Then i tested on cpu throttling application, and it became clear, the cpu starts throttling to arround 85% max performance after 10 minutes, thats a shame, this phone advertised as having cooling system and high performance but throttles after just 10 mins..
I want to ubl and root it to disable the thermal but i have problem that says device not supported. I am on latest realme ui 2.0.
Need some advice.. thanks before
hi, playing mobile legends too on this phone, no issues ever appeared. Maybe software problem? tried reset to factory?

I have reset to factory and no luck.
Which software version are u running?
I tried on
RMX3370_11_A.06 global - no issues
now im on RMX3370_11_A.11 china rom - no issues too.
The throttling problem has been solved in A07 update..

I'm on Version WW-31.0810.1226.91. My experience is very bad. Multi-core performance has dropped drastically, and I'm facing stutters while gaming since the CPU usage is reaching 100%.

I'm also looking for a solution. I even contacted the service center, but he said that he couldn't downgrade. I'm looking to use this method (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...h-file-fastboot-ww-rom.4268331/#post-85177291) but I have some questions and doubts about the method mentioned.

Don't expect anything from the service center guys, I've already got my motherboard replaced just after 4-5 months of purchase, that was an awful experience! It took 45 days for them to resolve.
Now gaming has become hell, If Phone gets heated upto 44 - 45 degrees, Can't even play anything without my AC turned on. CPU gets down when the temp is high, from 2.8 ghz to 845 MHz when Xmode is turned on.
Everything is a mess now

True.
My CPU was throttling even at low temperatures. I bought the mobile to play Apex Legends Mobile. It mainly relies on multicore performance, which was F'ed up by the A12 update.

I mean, when you not satisfied with new update, you can flash raw files to rollback the firmware then update to the best version firmware you know
