Nice, but the goal with this is to force the resolution to change from 1080p to 1440p and vice-versa. The fps is to just reset 1080p back to 120hz automatically since it defaults to 60hz when switched back.

This is awesome, thank you! Does the 96hz refresh rate work as well?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
I haven't tried the 96hz personally, but I don't see why it wouldn't work as long as your in 1080p. I don't think there is an option for 96hz in the default refresh rate setting so it be per app.

You could set it and try the UFO FPS test to see if its actually 96hz.

Why not just set bixby to use Youtube Vanced, I tried with youtube and still showed 1080p after bixby routine to 1440p
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
That's what I use.

Hi whats the correct way of setting up bixby routines because I set YouTube vanced to work with wqhd and in the stats for nerds it works perfectly

But when I exit YouTube it does go back to fhd but doesn't automatically swith on adaptive smoothing
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Thats what you need the Dynamic Display app for. Bixby routines will only switch the resolution. You need to use both Bixby Routines and Dynamic Display in conjunction.

Its explained in the main post.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] interestingkid:
seems that this doesn't work with the latest 1.0.0 update
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
What latest update?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] valamer:
I can't make this work, each version I get the same result.

I have the Bixby Routine set up, which works flawlessly.

But once I exit back to system the display does drop to FHD but only at Standard (60Hz).

I have set the default Hz in the Dynamic Display to 120 Hz, and I have enabled both the WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS and the Accessibility option for Dynamic Display but still it doesn't work. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
What version? There is only one Dynamic Display apk i posted?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] valamer:
Yes, I used the one you posted first. And previous versions that the developer has released on the GitHub.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
I don't know then, with the apk I posted it works flawlessly.

I'm not sure whats the issue you guys are running into.

Is the Dynamic Display toggle in the Quick Settings set to 120hz?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] valamer:
It doesn't though, glad it does for you but not for everyone.

The developer is actually looking into it currently. I quoted him from his discord channel below.

"A few users have reported that when using Bixby routines to change the display resolution for YouTube and YouTube Vanced, the refresh rate does not return to 120Hz after leaving the app.

Initial thoughts are that DD is trying to set 120Hz before Bixby has changed the resolution, leaving 120Hz useless.

If DD can check the device resolution (quickly) and wait a second if it detects WQHD to give Bixby the time it needs.”

And yes, I have it set to 120 Hz in the quick settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
It does tho..

Same instructions, same Bixby Routines, same apk I posted on the main page and it works as intended.

I suspect something is going wrong when settling everything up, that's why it's worked for some and not others.

This method was also made for the s20, so its not new
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] valamer:
Dude, don't get worked up about it. It doesn't work for everyone. It's a known issue, the developer is working on a fix. Chill out.

I'm happy it works for you and some others, but I have done everything as instructed and it doesn't work for me. There is also evidence that this is the case for other people too.

See here for official statement from the developer of the app:

https://github.com/Made-With-Fingertips/Dynamic-Display/issues/18
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Woah, not sure why you think I'm freaking out, but I wasn't.

Wasn't trying to come off any way that warranted being told to calm down and chill.

And that's your post right?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] valamer:
All I'm doing is telling you it doesn't work for everyone and you keep trying to say it does and implying it's user error.

That post on GitHub is from the developer of the app. As I said, it's a known issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
I'm just responding to your post man, not trying to be hostile. If I came off that way I'm sorry. But telling people to chill online brings no help in my option, it just makes people mad.

Looks like the developer just posted this, so it not really a know issue, its a new issue that you brought up to him. And that's great, the more help the better. And I appreciate that.

But a good portion of the replies on here are people not following directions and only doing Bixby Routines, so if I'm being sceptical that its not really just user error, I apologize. It just seems like a good portion of the problem is people not following directions.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] valamer:
I actually didn't contact the dev about the issue, someone else did and I happened to come across it when looking for a fix.

From what I have seen you are assuming that a good portion of the replies on here are people not following the directions. But I think it's likely some are just having the same issues I am.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Sorry, I misunderstood. I though you said you told him about the problem, I see you said you just quoted what he said.

From what I have read, I may be assuming yes. But some of the post are saying the Bixby Routine is not working because the frame rate is not changing. Making me believe some people are only using Bixby and assuming it will change the refresh rate as well.

Look if the developer can fix this, then great.

I just think a good portion is people not following directions. Just my opinion man.

Anyways. I appreciate your help. Hopefully the developer can solve this problem to make this much more streamlined.

Really I don't see why Bixby Routines does not have an option for refresh rate. It be great to handle this all within a Bixby Routine.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] valamer:
Yeah, things would be much easier if Bixby Routines could change refresh rate too. Maybe in a future update. Until then I'll just wait and see what the developer can do.

Use this command instead

adb shell pm grant dev.fingertips.s20refreshrate android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
How do you mean its coming up as Powershell and not the command prompt?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] tourbound129:
To get command prompt instead of power shell in Windows 10...

Go to settings, personalization, Taskbar and turn off the slider that says replace command prompt with power shell
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] brockyneo:
Thanks guys I've tried this and it was still powershell never had and problems before darn windows changing things ill have another look today

Just a question I don't need root do I?

Also I'm on high performance but have the resolution set to full HD

---------- Post added at 07:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 AM ----------

For some reason Windows has changed it to porweshell instead of command prompt at least on my computer :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
No you don't need root.

As for the Powershell thing, why don't you just search for the command utility in your search and open it that way?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] brockyneo:
I have unfortunately I get the same error for some reason its definitely user error don't get me wrong lol

Properly my darn pc :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Hmm, are you using the apk I posted or are you using the updated version or did you pull it from Github and build it yourself?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] KURDKiNG:
So if i do this does device stutter when exiting youtube since its switching resolution and Fps?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Yes. But its pretty quick imo.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] brockyneo:
I've tried both im going to have another try now I have more time lol

Do I need to do the command first before i open the app maybe this is where things are going wrong?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
I thought the app would give a warning at the top if it does not have the permissions it needs.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] edwardob:
i got it all would working fine... only thing is variable rate seem to stop working when i it goes back to 120hz and stays there.

great mod though..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Glad to hear it's working out.

Maybe let the developer know about the variable refresh rate.

I appreciate it..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
09/10/20 post updated.

Updated some of the instructions.

Removed the APK link I built and directly linked the Github page since the developer has the APKs ready for download already.

Fixed the ADB command

Also update about v.1.0.0.

I was not able to get v1.0.0 to work, the latest version I was able to get to work was v.0.1.0.

For some reason v1.0.0 does not give a prompt on first start up for the ADB permission and when you try to enter the command anyways it gives an error saying the APK did not request the permission.

So when running v1.0.0 it DID NOT auto switch the refresh rate and just didn't seem to work at all.

I would suggest staying on v.0.1.0 until that's fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
By chance are you using v1.0.0?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
09/10/20 Update 2

I also submitted and issue on the GitHub page for v1.0.0, so hopefully the developer can help with the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] xanthrax:
v1.00 works just fine, no need to use adb if you have previously used the first version, the promt doesn't show up as the command line was already done
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Even after uninstalling everything and reinstalling the new apk, I still see no prompt for the ADB permission.

If you uninstall any of the other versions, and reinstall it will prompt you again.

Like I said, I tried v.1.0.0 and Ii did not work for me, even with a fresh install and trying to enter the command again.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] TheUndertaker21:
Is the command still require? Also why isn't it for note 20? It says s20 lol

I don't have the command prompt either.

No longer require?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
if you use v0.1.0 yes, as for v1.0.0 I don't know.

The app was made for the s20, but has been updated to support the Note 20 Ultra. Essentially they are the same display.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] stealthieone:
So I noticed that the toggle says 120hz when back to home display..but inside display settings it says standard...which one is correct?

---------- Post added at 03:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 PM ----------

Since it works for you...does it say standard in display settings? And say 120hz on the quick settings toggle? Or do both say 120hz when back to home screen?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
when mine switches back it says adaptive under display settings and the 120hz.

When I was using v1.0.0 the toggle would say 120hz, but it would say standard under display. So it wasn't switching it and the toggle did nothing when changing it from there.

Thats why I'm sticking with v.0.1.0.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] stealthieone:
Damn i don't know why it's not working for me. For the adb command..is it put in all at once..because thats what I did.

I'm also using 0.1.0
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
yup, did you set the default refresh rate in the app?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] stealthieone:
Yep sure did...lol I read through every page in the forum...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Dang, maybe your display has to be set to adaptive before the app can work?

I really don't know. Seems like a good chunk of people cant get it to work.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] stealthieone:
So I've been doing some testing...without changing resolution (no bixby routine activated) when I go to the dynamic display app and switch to 60hz it changes my display from adaptive to standard...should it do that?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
That sounds right. Standard would be the 60hz. Adaptive is the 120hz (or smooth scrolling since its not always 120hz)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] stealthieone:
Yes its on adaptive. With bixby routine I assume its changing to wqhd....but exiting youtube and it goes to 1080p standard...my understanding is with the dynamic app it should be 1080p adaptive
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
yup, the routine only changes the resolution to WQHD+ for whatever you have the routine set too (in my case YouTube)

when you leave the app (YouTube) it will auto switch back to FHD+ but Bixby will not change the FPS and will default to Standard (60hz)

The app is really only to set you default FPS to Adaptive (120hz) so when it switched to FHD+ is will default to Adaptive.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] stealthieone:
I'm gonna give up for now.. I've tried everything I know to try. In my testing I did notice that by messing with the toggle I can have wqhd with 120z..which is what it says in display settings. But I assume that would be a big battery drain to be wqhd and 120hz all the time..so I wished I could get the app to work as intended
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
There is no 1440p + 120hz, what you see in the settings is a bug. The screen physically can not support 1440p and 120hz at the same time.

It looks like you are 3/4 of the way there tho, not really sure what else to tell you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] sonic04:
You don't need Bixby Routines so that Youtube Vanced

the best possible resolution plays. You only have to go to Vanced Settings, Video Settings and check the first option..Resolution Check..

Once you've done that, you can change to higher resolution. When you close Vanced it goes back to FHD+ Adaptive.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] sonic04:
I think that even if the resolution in Vanced video is higher than 1080p, it stays at 120hz.Scrolling is smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] p40403:
it works great,but my google play store crashed again and again
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] edwardob:
Bixby been updated which seem to have the auto switch you been looking for

i haven't tested it out fully.....

update....

update....uninstalled that app Dynamic Display ....reset adb cos that app and other seems to upset things

bixby working well now switching between 60 and 96[in my case] in whatever app i want.......cool

update.. using it in any writing app or drawing.. and it switch well smooth...looks like Samsung have done a good job on this
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Nope, all that does is tricks YouTube into downloading a video in a higher resolution then what your phone supports. But just because YouTube downloaded a higher resolution video does not mean it it will magically make your display higher resolution.

You can also force it download a 4k video, but if you have a 1080p display, you will still only see 1080p.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Its not physically possible to have 1440p and 120hz. The screen can't handle it. If its 120hz, your in 1080p
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Holy crap. I'll check this out. This may have just made everything in this post obsolete.

If its legit this is amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] edwardob:
working fine... just uninstall any those app.... that mess with smoothness.....

you may have to reset with adb.

"adb shell settings put system peak_refresh_rate 120.0 " or 96.0 whichever you prefer

then happy days....
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
That worked like a charm!

Holy crap, finally samsung came thru.

Well this whole post is essentially obsolete now lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] edwardob:
well it is i suppose..........could always be updated on first page ......to let folks catch up
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Yup I will in the morning.

Its 4am and I'm on mobile in bed...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] edwardob:
i find 96.0hz better for variable to work

120hz trends to stay there even if not touching screen whereas setting it to 96hz it will vary between 60 96 depending whether your touch or not
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] brockyneo:
New bixby routines seems to work just fine shame I cannot get it to work in high performance mode

Can anyone else get it to work? I selected to not change the resolution to wqhd when changing to performance mode

Also is there a way or resetting adb without a pc just im not at home at the moment

Guys, this bibxy routines works for me, my language is Slovakia, but some staf translate, hope I help

https://ibb.co/F67fMJD

YouTube works with 2k resolution, when close YouTube back to normal automatically and adaptive refresh rate
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] valamer:
That does work really well. Except for if you use picture in picture mode (mini-player), when you restore back to fullscreen it causes YouTube to close and re-open so you have to go back to the video in your history tab to continue playing it. But for sure it's the best implementation I have found so far. Thanks :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] maxpaynezm:
Yes that true, that's only bug, but no problem for me
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] stealthieone:
What issues were you noticing before resetting add? And how do you do that?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] edwardob:
well i had already been playing with different apps found on xda. which changes the hz rate. but they seem to mess things up a bit. variable rate stopped

but if you haven't used any of these apps then no need to do anything

if you have adb command is

"adb shell settings put system peak_refresh_rate 120.0 " or 96.0 whichever you prefer

how to? check out using adb on this website

something you install on pc... but sad I said no need to if you haven't been messing around with these app
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Posted update 09/12/20

No longer needing the Dynamic Display app or ADB!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] raul6:
Yes, working well natively with updated Bixby routines
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] edwardob:
unless you want 96hz...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Still works for 120hz,

How do you know doesn't work for 96hz? Adaptive should be 96hz to 120hz right?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] edwardob:
not sure what you mean.... but

96hz needs adb command

so you WILL need adb to get 96hz

that's what i meant
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Gotcha,

Well this thread was not about unlocking 96hz...

There is actually another dedicated thread for that...

if everything is working for you you don't need to do anything
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
That's all I used too, I didn't need to reset anything. Just uninstalled the app and rebooted for good measure.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] stealthieone:
So what bixby routines are people using to get it back to 1080p and smooth setting...after it was in wqhd?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
If you set it to change to WQHD+ Standard whenever you open a specific app, whenever you close the app it will auto switch back to FHD+ Adaptive.

No extra routine needed.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] stealthieone:
When I try doing a routine for youtube...where I just change it to wqhd, its not changing back to smooth when I exit youtube.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Themes, Apps, and Mod] Fatmonk8:
Make sure your settings under display are set to what you want them to be as default.
