One of the biggest improvements that OnePlus introduced with its 2019 smartphones is the high refresh rate screens which provide users with a fluid experience. The OnePlus 7 pro, OnePlus 7T, and OnePlus 7T Pro come with a 90 Hz display which makes the experience smoother when you are playing games, scrolling through content on apps, or just traversing the UI. The benefits of 90 Hz display is something that cannot be explained but only experienced in person. And believe me when I say that a high refresh rate screen is exceptional. That said, the feature comes with a big penalty in terms of battery life. OnePlus does allow you to keep the screen in 60 Hz mode to save battery life but that is buried deep in the Settings app. So, to make life easier for you, we are going to show you how to enable a 90 Hz refresh rate quick toggle in OnePlus 7/7T Pro.
While I have talked about battery life consequences of using the 90 Hz refresh rate, some users might not be bothered with it as they can charge their phones multiple times a day. Considering the ultra-fast charging speeds of OnePlus devices, no one can blame you if you want to use the phone always in the 90 Hz mode. Well, since the quick toggle will allow you to easily switch between 60 Hz and 90 Hz refresh rate, you can use it to quickly switch to 90 Hz mode whenever you want. With that said, here are the steps to enable the 90 Hz refresh rate quick toggle.
First, we will install the app that we require to enable this quick toggle. So, click on the link to visit the GitHub page and download the app. If you are installing an outside APK for the first time on your phone, it might ask permission. Allow it to install the app on your phone.
First, we will have to enable “USB Debugging” on our OnePlus 7/7T Pro. To do that, launch Settings and then open “About Phone”. Here, tap on “Build Number” 6-7 times till you see a “Developer Options Enabled” message.
Once your device is listed, run the below command to grant the necessary permissions for the quick toggle to work.
