Hy fella's,
I have a problem recording time lapses, the video recording will stop recording on it's own as if I pressed the stop button, I've tried all types of recording, and it will still stop, sometimes after a couple of minutes and sometimes after 8 minutes or 9, seems pretty random.. thoughts?
Up....
Similar Problem
Hello!
I have the same problem, but with my Google (LG) Nexus 4: The time lapse recording just stops. However, it records up to about three hours and then just stops without me touching the stop button or the battery running low (I had the phone plugged).
Would appreciate any explanation.
Best regards,

Lapse It Pro random stopping !!
Good Evening Fellow Lapsers,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S8+ & a Huawei P20 both with Lapse It Pro. I have turned off all apps & other possible interfering programs / services like notifications, data , wifi etc etc.
I have set the Lapse It Pro to Fully enabled in settings, I have selected the external micro sd 256 Gb storage on my Samsung which is just for photos & videos , the Huawei does not have the option but it is 128Gb & is bought just for time lapse & does not even have a sim card so cannot receive calls , texts etc.. They are both plugged into their respective charges so no flat battery issues & yet they both stop time lapsing around 6hrs in no matter how frequent the pictures are taken, 1 phone set to take a snap every 30 seconds & the other set to 1 minute & both on full sensor..
The objective I am trying to achieve is take a time lapse of 24 hours of our back garden..
Frustrating to say the least so if anybody has any ideas they would be muchly appreciated..
One thing I will try is set the quality to 1080 & see if this changes things..
Regards
Jimbo
hi.. guys
im from indoensia, got the phone today x50 pro. is nice . thin and smooth. camera is okay ( got mate 30 pro either ) and camera i think better the huawei
now.. the only problem is. i found :
1. baterry drain fast. ( less 5 hour or 6 hour ) mate 30 pro can hold 8 hours.
2, i have my own ringtones then use on my whatsapp. i put on x50 pro and not showing up on setting notif whatsapp. try and try 4 hours but cannot fix it ! but it can be use on phone call or text message. (open from setting - sound - ) but rather guys know..that phone call and sms text not popular to use now.
copy my ringtones to folder RINGTONE and NOTIFICATION even copy to MUSIC . still not show on whatsapp Notifcation setting. ???
3. when you reach the phone and start turn on the screen..only need 30 - 60 ssecond the phone getting warm. im not playing game only see any text message or twitter.
if no update firmware, i think to go back to mate 30 pro. feeling comfort with that phone
plz..if anyone have some problem ...
Don't panic. This is Vivo X50 Pro+ forum though. Nobody here is really familiar with Pro I guess.
So what you can get is more or less general advice.
When I got the X50 Pro+ I remember that it felt hot at the beginning when I set it up. But never again. I'm not familiar with Snapdragon any more, I was on Kirin for a long time. Besides the sun shone through the window behind, that might be the reason too. And about battery - give it a little time and manage permissions and notifications of apps. But don't expect exactly the same SOT as you have on Mate - Huawei is known to have extremely aggressive battery management.
I don't know about WhatsApp, I don't use it.
But take your time and don't jump to conclusions.

Hi,
since you already own the phone, may I ask you to check if the USB is 2.0 or 3.x? I need a phone able to connect an external monitor via USC Type-C and that is not possible with the older 2.0.
Also, are you able to use banking apps with no issues?
Thanks in advance
Andrea
The usb type is 2.0. Banking apps and in store payment work flawlessly, NFC antenna is placed just right, so the recognition is instant.
My battery life is about a day & half.
Hi,
I received my F3 and sometimes I notice that sometimes it automatically switches to 60hz while I am in 120hz.
For example, I unlock my phone, it is in 60hz on the home screen and I have to launch an application (for example Play Store) so that it switches back to 120hz.
I think it's a sofware issue but are other people having the same problem than me ?
I have seen an youtube review where minimizing Genshin Impact (a game) switches the phone to 60Hz.
You then have to go to the settings and briefly switch to 60Hz and back to 120Hz to get it working again.
Looks like a software bug to me - don't have my phone yet to check it out myself (Amazon DE launch disaster ...)
Unfortunately, it's not a bug but a "feature". Stupid xiaomi MIUI feature of dynamic refresh rate that force 60Hz on almost all videogames, youtube, netflix...
Same as POCO X3 and all MI 11 family. I hope that custom fw, like xiaomi.eu, will solve this!
Go to app management and delete battery and performance app data, not Cache but data.If you dont see baterry and performance go on three dots up right and select all apps.Now you have yt and all aps on 120hz.After some time you need to do this again.For now I am happy with this solution to have yt on 120hz.
First days, after I got this phone, I've seen that the refresh rate is adaptive between 60 and 120hz. The last two days refresh rate got stuck on 120hz, no matter what I did, it was only 120hz, except some apps. Today it's back to adaptive. Bug maybe?
Some apps are stuck on 60hz all the time.
File manager - 60hz
Google photo - 60hz (by comparation, the gallery app is 120hz).
Music app- 60hz
Mi video - 60hz
YouTube - 60hz (scrolling the comments).
Sometimes settings app and the entire UI is stuck in 60hz untill I switch to 60 and back to 120.
My s21Ultra and Z Flip 3 are 120hz on YouTube and Google photo and all other apps.
I know you don't need 120hz to view a photo or video, but it's about scrolling. And apps look ugly when scrolling on 60hz after getting use to 120 for a long time.
There's a list of apps that are to be stuck on 60hz .... Inside battery and performance apk
You'll find games , apps and whatnot inside all limited to 60hz
Benchmark apps are also there For that extra performance boost you won't actually be able to use anywhere else...
I'm pissed because I want to play mobile legends at 120hz and am not able to !
I unlocked FPS to 120 but all in vain , phone is permanently stuck at 60hz...
just buy a new phone... Non Xiaomi
My first and last time using Xiaomi
Ps. I tried everything! Nothing works as a fix , only thing I didn't try is editing battery and performance app and removing apps I don't want it to limit...
I mean I tried but it broke the phone ...
( Bootloop and after I got out everything else was broken like fast charging, GPS , Cellular... )
IF you have time you can probably figure this out , sit by ur pc and keep trying until you get the phone to be able to boot with modified app... It will require tons of reflashing probably a day or two of work at least. It's possible but I'm not gonna be doing that for mobile legends...
YouTube, Google Photos etc being 60 Hz is on purpose by Xiaomi.
There is also a bug where your phone gets set to 60 Hz randomly for all apps. When that happens, you have to set 60 Hz and then 120 Hz again, or enable & disable Battery Saver through a Quick-Tile, that's faster.

You can remove the 60 Hz limit and force 120 Hz all the time without Root & with Root:
Root method:
1. Install this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.iamaner.oneclickfreeze
2. Disable the system-app "Battery & performance"
Non-root Method:
1. Get this program for Windows: https://github.com/Szaki/XiaomiADBFastbootTools
1.1 It needs Java installed. This Open Source version of Java worked for me: https://adoptopenjdk.net/
2. Enable "ADB Debugging" in Settings > Developer Options & connect phone to PC
3. Launch Xiaomi ADB Fastboot Tools, and disable "Battery & performance"
Basically, the system-app "Battery & performance" is doing the Refresh Rate-Limiting. It's safe to disable this system-app.
You will lose the item "Battery Saver" in App-Info's, but you can still disable Battery Optimisation in Settings > Privacy > Manage > Special app access > Battery Optimization.
In return, every game and every app that support 120 Hz, will use 120 Hz now.

Is it possible to still keep the variable refresh rate? To have have 60hz when I'm not touching the screen?

Removal or disabling of the app disables many features and breaks even many more....
Fast charging does not work , GPS is not able to track location real time and is messing up when it does report location... Cellular radio constantly turns on and off , that's only the few stuff I've notice before reflashing.
All on latest beta version ... I remember seeing the same on miui vn as well.
Refer back to my post above - either modify the app to remove the strings or don't touch it at all!
If you have free time try disabling it on the latest global beta with performance mode on and report back if the charging is gone ...
( This one likely requires flashing system to fix all of the issues following disabling/enabling the app... Even the simplest tweak to the adaptive refresh rate breaks the module completely - you get spastic switching between 60/120hz on touch in apps that render at 60fps . Correct behaviour would be for display to remain at 120hz for 2 seconds after touching screen but after pretty much any modification this behaviour changes and you get stuff like display going back and forward between 120/60hz WHILE YOU'RE TOUCHING THE SCREEN, or simply having it instantly switch to 60hz as soon as you stop touching screen. Both are insanely annoying and in both cases I had to flash system to fix all of this ... Clearing data will likely result in the same thing as well - like tldr. is don't disable/uninstall the app and don't touch it's data ! I'm yet to confirm whether modifying app while preserving data will be issue free or not ... But hopefully you get the point now )
It should be , only way I see it allowing for fast charge is if it's silently enabled for the background user ( Like when you enable dual app support ). In that case you'll have to test and see what works and what doesn't....
Overall I still do not recommend this , you probably will lose all the benefits from the performance mode toggle as it likely utilises this app for all the device tuning...

It never goes away trust me. I've disabled every single app on this phone to the point where I've butchered the system enough that it wasn't able to boot again - and still the display would always go down to 60hz when not touching the screen.
It's likely that no app controls that , is kernel related or something like that so out of your hands.

I think my method disables that! I haven't found a way to keep the "variable refresh rate".
Although I have to say, Poco F3 doesn't really have Variable Refresh-Rate Support. ^^ The term is not correct, even if people use that term for the Poco F3.
It's not hardware-supported like G-Sync or FreeSync monitors, so it can't adapt the Refresh-rate to e.g. the current FPS in games.
It just sets 60 Hz when you don't touch the screen, or when nothing is rendering on the screen. It's simple software-logic.

Thanks for your answer. If you disable battery & performance app, can that cause battery drain? The continuous use of 120hz?

That's not true.

5,7 A x 4,2 V = 22 Watt Charging for me right now
It's not charging at 32 Watt for me right now, but the Charging-behaviour is exactly the same as before disabling the system-app. It's safe.

Which rom are you on ? Latest global beta with performance mode enabled or something else? I didn't have the issue on earlier miui before performance mode but now it's the same thing whenever I uninstall the app. I have it stuck at 2000mah charging ( Battery is basically not charging at all when gaming as those 2000 mah soon get eaten up when cpu and GPU ramp up so you end up actually discharging while plugged in )
Unless you use app like cpu float I can't really compare our results... ( It's asking me to recalibrate battery before I'm even able to use the app or see current and I'd rather not go through that when the battery is well calibrated already... )
I've attached screenshot bellow , now it's showing 15000 charging at 100% battery , it goes up to 25000 when the device is at like 20% battery. With original cable I've seen it go up to 35000/50000 current so definitely not correct metrics , but overall it's consistent.
Now when I remove the battery and performance app it drops all the way down to showing -2000 as current , and when a game is opened up it goes into positive 500 - 1000 range. ( Negative means charging, positive means discharging by that amount ).
I've had it happen last 2 times after removal of the app , instantly the fast charging works no more and phone drains while plugged in. ( I've uninstalled the app so disabling it might keep the fast charge but I can't say whether performance mode tunings will remain )

I use the latest Xiaomi.eu Weekly.
AccuBattery's "Recalibration" just means it does a little check. It will ask you to connect your phone to a charger. It doesn't modify anything.
The negative current in your screenshot means it's discharging. And yes I also think your mentioned 25000, 35000/50000 milliAmps or Amps are not correct.
@ione2380 @Rstment ^m^
Don't do my method! It's not safe actually. I found out that disabling system-app "Battery & performance" breaks some background activity.
I'm really sorry. I edited my posts to remove mentions of that method.

It's been two days since the problem disappeared. I have 120gz in all the apps and no 60hz drops at all. The only thing I changed is I logged out of mi account. I'm on EEA latest stable stock.
Just clear data on battery and performance. That locks display at 120.Im using phone like that for 20 days now. Didnt notice any problems after it, but use with caution. To revert you just need to reboot phone.
I won't be watching this thread further... But everyone that replied saying no problems with this / that - enable show refresh rate inside developers option and use it for a day or two while gaming/doing whatever...
It's not that there are no problems ... It's just that you don't know how to look for them.
I've used all these fixes before and now I'm not using any because of the aforementioned problems like what's described in my first post. Fast charging and GPS mishaps are new stuff that I haven't seen before this beta , you might not see if you're not on my software build but everything else like refresh rate acting spastically is old news and will happen if you mess with the app ... Reboot does "fix" the refresh rate by going back to enforcing 60hz locks but it still exhibits spastic behaviour randomly
If you need that 120hz unlocked for a specific app and you aren't able to modify the app instead of butchering it like this then go for it ...
Everyone else steer clear, you're introducing lots of instability to your phone all for that 120hz scrolling inside YouTube...
Well I'm on 12.5.3 eea. If its that bad maybe i wont update when it comes
In 12.5.6 stable, clearing data from battery and performance app isn't doing the trick anymore. Some apps are forever stuck on 60hz now.
Yeah. And i forgot to disable auto update
Im using youtube vanced now and have normal youtube disabled so at least that stays 120hz.
You can bug ouy normal youtube by going to recent apps ,then clearing them and doing that few times, but thats just bug.
We should pressure them to give us ability to enable that as an option. like fill their feedback app with that suggestion
Go to developer options, logger buffer sizes and set it to off. That fixed the file manager being stuck on 60fps for me.
I've just set up my phone, and from all the videos never seen anyone comenting on the LTPO panel refresh rate. Tested the screen by enabling the FPS counter in developer settings and noticed it never goes down to 10hz. Even worse - always on stays locked at 120hz and home screen locks at 60hz. Is there something I am missing, or is it a bug?

I've seen on other device threads were the built in FPS counter doesn't show the actual refresh rate and only bounces between those two. Can't recall what method was used but there are other apps that will display the proper info.
I see. I read on the Xda review, that it fluctuates between 60-120 so wanted to test and see if thats true, as I would imagine it dropping down to 10hz would be way better for battery performance.
This review is confirming that too. The variable refresh rate is definitely broken...

As I understand it, SurfaceFlinger only sees 60 and 120, but can't see below 60. It is the display controller that sees below 60, so I suspect the Poco X3 has a different display controller than the Pixel 6 Pro. I think the Pixel 6 Pro would have to have a different display controller to allow the the developer options refresh rate to display anything below 60.
Anyone having an issue where the phone just drops down to 60hz even thou the slider is set on 120hz?? Happens about once a day for me the only way to fix it is a reboot

Are you using tasker? I noticed in tasker that one of the tasks I had running dropped the display down to 60hz. Either that or it lowered performance in some way.
I am not using tasker the phone is 100% stock don't know why I'm having this issue
The Oneplus 9 Pro was meant to go down 1Hz when looking at static content but no one can verify that, according to GSM Arena.
If the static content can be a GIF image, one can easily verify the 1 Hz claim if the GIF updates only once every second.
The LTPO display seems a mess. Totally broken.

yes, i am having the exact same issue.
i reckon it could be due to some app which hangs in the background as i already witnessed that if you listen to telegram or whatsapp voice messages and minimize the messenger app, you get the same issue.
I truly am not a person who feels I need to point fingers at the competition in order to feel better, but this is interesting: Samsung attempts to explain Galaxy S22 screen refresh-rate shenanigans
