They're pretty random, but it can easy be reproduced while changing volume.
Do any of you face this bug?

Just tried it with PUBG mobile, can not reproduce this..

do you have asphalt 9, if yes can you test it?

Yeah, I have the same issue. But if you start the match in PUBG, there won't be any artefacts. I would guess it is game related, cause the artefact only in the main menu.

it was happened on my xz1 on oreo, but its gone with pie update

Pie update didn't help me
Also issue reproduces in NFS No Limits. But not that much as in asphalt 9

Hi, i have the same problem with artifacts, and they also reproduced every time by pressing volume button. I also noticed that when you change the screen resolution in the game to a lower one, the size of the area with artifacts increases, so the problem is probably not in the display itself, it is in the GPU.
It is strange that there are so few reviews about this here, because judging by the Russian-speaking forum 4 PDA - the problem is quite common.
Also, i just find interesting thing , If you enter the developers menu and turn on the "Disable hardware overlay" option, the artifacts disappear ?. discovered just that, in the game oddworld new n tasty.

THANK YOU
I had ssme isue on my XPERIA XZ PREMIUM (pie) in oddworld, mudrunner and ark, u saved me from giving up on this rom

PUBG Lag

Hi Guys,
Does anyone has a lag/stutter while playing PUBG?
Tried all the seetings but the stuttering is really annoying.

I have this issue too. Why does snapdragon 855 lags on pubg mobile. There is serious frame drop issue. Xiaomi please fix this.

What setting are you playing on? Because for playing too long in hdr with extreme fps might be making this lag...

i didnt have any fps issue on highest setting , only the back of the phone getting hots.

Back of the phone gets hot with even smooth extreme setting

My k20 pro lags even with smooth extreme settings. Will a software update fix this??

Facing the same issue
I am facing the same issue in K20 pro. extreme frame drops. Even if you select low fps it will lag.

Pubg lags/stutter is present in all custom roms... Even in all stock/eu roms too. For me the performance i got in latest chaina stable. It also lags/stutters here n there but much better performance than the custom roms

Have you tried disabling all the touch response and sensitivity stuff in the game booster which is accessible through the security app?
For me the experience is much smoother after I've disabled all those additional features

K20 pro pubg problem
I also get major lag in pubg with smooth extreme setting how sd 855 can't handle smooth extreme in pubg & it has touch issue to will they fix this with a update

I'm playing HDR + Extreme and stable 60FPS whole game...

ermmm remember to let your phone cool down , smooth extreme is actually a 60 fps , its high demand , of course there will be thermal throttle , benchmark test also slow down when phone is hot

Zero lags here on 6GB version. Smooth/HDR both at60fps run buttersmooth.
There is render lag and framedrop when squads come nearby taking it from 60 to 45fps but it's a server related part and happens on all including OP7Pro.
Do hibernate all social media or background persistant apps like FB, WHATSAPP, TikTOK, Messenger, Instagram etc by using Greenify and use dehibernate after you're done playing so none will consume cpu/ram or introduce spikes in ping by trying to pull notifications/updates in background.

beacuase of miui 11 bugs. dont update your k20 pro to miui 11.

Maybe not be the reason for the recent lagging issue, but I do believe this holds some water.
MIUI 10 was a better performer. Wish Xiaomi released less phones and focused more on software.

Totally agree!!
Tested PUBG on both MIUI 10 and 11. Despite of more device heating with MIUI 10, pubg performance isn't too bad. Infact I found the sweet spot when I disabled the game booster with display overclocked to 81hz.
I tried many different settings on MIUI 11. No luck yet. Frame rate keeps dropping below 40fps.

I have same issue with note 10 SD 855 and it's ****in irritating af.. If I factory reset it'll play fine for maximum one day then lag will come again

For anyone facing lag &framedrops - if you're rooted on miui install Franco kernel manager & then under miscellaneous settings select thermal profile "not set" out of the 10 or 12 available ones.
Experience smoothest gameplay after this [email protected], even [email protected] without random slowdowns or microstutters. (Except when nearing other squads as it's a server side lag issue)
Also do check under the Guides section for my post on this.

60hz display mode issue

Has anyone else noticed that the 60hz setting on this phone isn't actually 60hz but 60.3?
Am annoyed with this because I really wanted to use this phone a lot for emulation on the go but am getting micro stutters with emulation because of this.
For example. Ppsspp on games like ridge Racer will micro stutter on races due to the game wanting to play at 60hz but the screen being 60.3hz
Retroarch is the same on emulators.
The best way to check this is happening is to install an emulator like snes9x ex, and run a rom at default settings. You will see the stutter. Mario kart for example on the title screen is easy to spot this.
However, if you allow the game to run at detected screens refresh (which is actually 60.34hz) then the game runs flawlessly.
What gives? I'd assume on a phone primarily sold for gaming purposes this refresh rate would be totally nailed down to 60.00?
Is there anything I can do to fix this?

No one else has this issue?
I've updated to latest official WW firmware and the problem is not solved. I've even done a complete reset and problem still exists. Can only assume at this point that the 60hz mode actually isn't 60hz at all. That'll be enough for me to go back to the black shark 2 until this is resolved, if ever. ?

Does anyone emulate using retroarch or anything on this phone at all?
If so, how do you get literally anything to run smoothly? Messing with the phone even more and I cannot get rid of micro stutter. Im even getting it on 60fps locked android games? Is this issue just my phone or are people just ignoring the problem?

I emulate through citra mmj, dolphin & ps2damon. Not facing any frame-related issues. I add these apks to armory crate and lock them to 60 fps regardless of the phones global refresh rate. Although I did not face any problems prior to doing this. I've also been playing regular android games in both 60 & 120 fps without issues. The only funny problem I've found is that many game engines lock their speed to fps, so if you force 120 on unsupported games, many will run in x2 speed.
I've never heard of retroarch before, what are the benefits?
EDIT: I'm on WW .34

I suppose with emulators for PS2 and GameCube etc the problem will be less obvious because games are prone to slight frame drops anyway because they don't quite run full speed all of the time.
Retroarch is basically an all in one UI that has loads of emulators all under one roof.
I boot all emulators at 60 through the crate but it doesn't make a difference.
I know it's an issue where the 60hz mode isn't actually 60, it's slightly off it. What I'm trying to figure out is whether it's an issue with my phone( some weird hardware fault) or an issue with all Rog 2 phones.
You'll only really see the problem with games or emulators that are a hard lock to 60fps.
So emulators like SNES, genesis, GBA, ppsspp or playstation 1 it's quite easy to see.
Its a common problem in cheap Chinese tablets where they don't nail down the refresh rates, but didn't think it would be in a high end gaming phone.
Edit:
I've had one other person test in snes9xex and he's getting the same issue as me so it seems it might be a phone issue. Hopefully it gets fixed in future firmwares, I don't know

Question about pubg performance

Hi guys, i just bought this phone for playing pubg exclusively. but im a littel bit dessapointed because after 40min-one hour of gaming the game starts lagging a lot at 43degress aprox. i dont know if i have to mod any configuration or what i have to do to play at 60fps for almost 2 hours. my last xiaomi mi 8 gets very hot while playing during 2 hours but it doesnt has frames drops with his sd845 procesor.
please if somebody could show his configuration for this game.
thanks in advance.

Yeah man... we know. It's not about the hardware (power left, overheating, etc.), it's something related to software. For me it works perfect 95% times, but lately is more lagged, even with Kirisakura 2.0. And heay, it's around 40-43º after some period time playing...
Let's see future Beta's
Or just install A9. Maybe goes a bit better.

Go to the Armory Crate and under Pubg Mobile's scenario profile set the temperature control to High. If you still get frame drops you can set X mode to Advanced. These are the settings I use currently and it runs perfectly.

yup I noticed this helps me to keep the pubg in 60fps and the temperature around 39-42°C. but i wonder why, previously there was no problem at all. is it pubg's fault in recent updates or rog's software fault. by the way i was previously updated to android 10, but since pubg is so bad in that build and pubg fps dropped due to overheat, i downgraded to android 9. but now i can feel the problem is still there. or maybe pubg was not optimizing their game for rog2. well, i am still dreaming of 120hz of pubg for this phone, and such a disappointment its been half a year without any update of it.

Question Bug 90fps always back to 60fps

Bug when i playing game Mobile legend.
When i set display refresh rate to 90hz
And set game setting to high frame rate.
Nothing happen, it stuck in 60fps.
But. When i clear data app battery & performa.
And play it again. Same setting in game.
It can 90fps smoothly.
Yes smothly. When i reboot my phone, it back 60fps on the game. And have to repeat the same way to get 90fps.
