Yeah mine isn't bad unless I turn brightness below 20%...the CN Rom has display color adjustments, apparently they deemed this non-exclusive to Global Rom.

Well if it's too bad and you bought from Red Magic Store you do have 12 month warranty. But updates would be nice for sure.

Indeed, literally I circumvent it by turning off Adaptive brightness and leave it on 50%, the game launcher has brightness control built in too so that helps. If you want gestures, I can recommend "Fluid NG" in the playstore, then run the adb command to hide stock navigation and you can turn it off and on when you want. The CN Rom truly is great but the SMS system is not good in US with their WeChat or whatever it's called lol. Plus LTE won't work you can only get 4g on CN.

RM3, 8/128GB, Red, NA variant.
Just got the phone. First impressions here first. I'll probably write a full review with pictures in a separate thread.
There's no particular order of importance of these following points.
1) The phone is gorgeous - it's a stunner. Also, huge. Makes my old OP6 look small. Side note: there's only swiping down from notification portion of the screen - meaning that you have to reach to the very top with the first swipe. But overall one-handed operation is not that much different from OP6 - in other words, tough.
2) Less slippery than all glass OP6. Feels really good holding it.
3) The display quality is on par with OP6. Not quite as picturesque as a GS9 display, but very nice looking. Haven't tested it in full sunlight yet. Also, the display is huge. Literally feels much bigger than OP6. The bezels are noticeable, but are definitely not a problem because most apps hide them.
4) Display 90Hz - you notice it right away and then you forget about it. But when I went to OP6 (the fastest phone I've used before,) it felt a bit choppy. 90Hz is real. Also, the phone itself feels significantly faster than OP6 - boot up, how quickly widgets update after a reboot, etc.
5) The battery is... fantastic - I'm so far projecting about 11 hours SOT.
6) The camera is MEH. I'll have to test it more, but so far it looks like a weaker version of OP6, which was already meh. I'm sure it's gonna provide excellent pictures in good light (haven't tried), but in low light - not so good. For example, 48mp mode is completely useless in low light. You have to switch to 12mp to get a decent shot (it combines 4 pixels into one to get more light.) I tried a few Google Cam apks, but haven't found one that worked.
7) There are bugs:
a) My sim card won't allow to set up call forwarding with AT&T. It works fine with OP6. Gonna get a new sim card tomorrow.
b) Swype keyboard (old apk) just doesn't stick. I tried like a million of different ones, none stick - phone always reverts to GBoard. Maybe it's an Android Pie issue. Very annoying.
c) Chromecast and Smart TV work perfectly except for one thing - screen mirroring doesn't work with Chromecast. You can stream, cast, mirror with TV etc, but that one single thing just doesn't work - it says Connecting...
Overall, I'm very happy with the phone, provides I can resolve some of the issues above.
Just bought the eco-sport case... It's worth the price, but if you are planning to use or buy the controller, just by the the case suitable to it...
UPDATE on the Red one:
1) Chromecast now works with screen mirroring just fine - must have needed to be rebooted.
2) I think the issue with the sim card and not being able to configure call forwarding is almost clear now - the card reports the Slot 1 IMEI as CDMA (14 digits). But even the Slot 2 IMEI (15 digits) gives an error "Network or Sim Card error." Called ATT and they recommended a new sim card, free of charge. When I get a new sim card tomorrow I will report back.
3) I have a serious issue with either the phone or the power button position. My phone rebooted 3 times in 5 minutes today. It may have been me inadvertently pressing the power button w/o realizing it. It it may be a defective phone. I rebooted the phone, cleared cache in recovery, and there were no more problems. However, the power button is in a perfect position for my thumbs, both hands, to press that button without realizing it. Maybe I'm holding it wrong.
UPDATE #2:
1) I'm still struggling with some issues but I am also getting some resolved. The power button thing came back once - I still cannot tell what the problem is.
2) On the bright side - this camera is amazing in bright light and medium light conditions.
I took some photos in good and dim lights. The results were spectacular.
Example - a room was illuminated by a single weak lamp and a distant window full of sunlight. The 12mp picture was as good if not better than a Galaxy S9 picture.
This was significantly better than OP6.
I think if someone made a Google Cam port for this camera, it would be flagship level quality.
Guys, FYI, some of our questions might be answered through this link: https://bbs.nubia.cn/thread-1472848-1-1.html
[The system of XDA won't allow me to share this as a new thread so I'll just post this a reply]
It's in Mandarin but google will translate the texts..
For those who worry about the security of the thread, here are its contents:
(P.S. They refer to the Red Magic 3 as Red Devil 3)
Since the launch of the Red Devils 3, due to its strong performance, super heat dissipation, cool appearance, and long-lasting battery life, it has attracted many magic beans to place orders at the first time. The first 90Hz screen, 4D shock and five-finger control are well received.
After the listing of the Red Devils 3, we also received feedback from some enthusiastic magic beans, and compiled this quick question for some of the more feedback problems, hoping to help everyone get started smoothly~
PS: It is expected that a new version will be pushed at the end of May (actually likely to be advanced) to focus on some of the more feedbacks.
Please have the magic beans in need to leave IMEI in this questionnaire, we will give priority to push. Https://wj.qq.com/s2/3664012/b082/
Red Devils 3 Q & A APP Banner.jpg
1, the screen has a distinct graininess, the resolution is not so high. It doesn't look too delicate, can you feel the granularity?
A: Previously, on some models, to save memory usage, the resolution of the built-in wallpaper was reduced.
Subsequent we will increase the resolution of our own wallpaper. Please download the HD wallpaper yourself to experience the clarity of the screen.
2, the screen color is a bit rich, the color temperature is a bit yellow when the eye protection mode is not opened, is it yellower than the first generation?
A: The Red Devil 3 is an AMOLED material, which is more beautiful than the LCD display. It is a normal phenomenon.
Regarding the color temperature, the factory is adjusted according to the style of the public, and also supports customization.
You can go to the Settings - Display - Screen Color Display and adjust to your favorite color temperature on the palette according to your own habits.
3. I feel that the top speaker sound is smaller than the bottom sound speaker. It sounds like no texture, no bass effect?
A: In order to give users a better gaming experience, the Red Devils 3 uses a dual-speaker and dual-tone intelligent power amplifier solution to increase the volume.
In the audio design, in order to ensure the balance of volume and tone, the upper speaker is mainly used to output the medium-high frequency band. The lower speaker outputs a full-band solution for an excellent listening experience.
In the actual experience, the external stereo is very obvious, please feel free to use.
4, my mobile phone protective film is smashed, watching how some bubbles are going on?
A: I am very sorry to bring you a bad experience. Please call the after-sales customer service 400-700-6600 for this question. For the flaw on the film, we will give you a new film for free.
5, sometimes the phone will automatically restart, how is this going?
A: We have located the reason and will resolve this issue in the next release, please update to the latest version to experience.
6, playing games sometimes encounter breaks?
A: The new version has been optimized for touch. Please update to the latest version after V2.14 and later. We will continue to follow this feedback in the future.
7, a key change machine connection timeout, Sony mobile phones and Xiaomi 8 can not connect.
A: Please upgrade your phone to the latest version first. We will also perform internal verification simultaneously, and will fix it as soon as possible if it is confirmed that there is a problem. If the new version is still not resolved, you can contact the after-sales service for testing.
8. Feel that the right side of the capacitor button is not sensitive.
A: Since the scene of the right capacitor button was found to be inadvertently touched during the test, some adjustments were made later.
We have feedback optimization for such issues. If it is more influential, please contact the after-sales service for testing.
9, playing the king's glory encounters the problem of crashing and crashing.
A: Please update your mobile phone to the latest version and experience it. If there is still a recurrence, you can contact the after-sales service.
10. Can't connect to WiFi? It will not work after restarting and restoring the factory settings.
A: Since Android 9.0 has improved security permissions, the switch to add a hidden network is turned off by default.
To add a hidden network, open Settings - WLAN, slide to the bottom, click "Add Network", then click "Hide Network", select "Yes", and then enter the name of the hotspot you want to add to add it.
If the WiFi network that is normally displayed directly cannot be connected, please provide the brand and model of the router. We will transfer it to R&D for analysis, and we suggest that you contact the after-sales detection process directly.
11. The fever is a bit big when playing games.
A: Turning on the "Red Devils Time" will result in a slight increase in power consumption and heat. You can try to close it first. The specific path is: enter the game space, click on the avatar in the upper right corner, click on “Time Setting”, and click on the first item “Red Devil Time” to close. At the same time, click “fan adjustment” to turn on the cooling fan and adjust the fan speed to “quick cooling”.
12. The triangle on the right side of the back cover logo light is found to be out of color, and the top left of the camera is also. I thought it was the oil on my hand. I cleaned it with a wet tissue and found it to fade.
Answer: The logo on the back cover LOGO lamp and the camera is laser engraved, which belongs to physical etching. In theory, it will not “color fade”. This may be caused by dirt on the surface. Please wipe it with a dry cloth or a corner of the clothes to return to normal.
13, using Huawei, Xiaomi and other friends charger and data cable can not be charged, unplug the charger still shows charging?
A: Since the chargers and data lines of different manufacturers have their own optimization and limitations, it is recommended to charge the mobile phone only with the original standard charger and data cable.
14, stimulating the battlefield game is prone to the right perspective can not move?
A: This problem is generally caused by the position of the palm of the right hand pressing to the edge of the screen when the horizontal screen is held, causing the finger to move. It is recommended to adjust the holding posture appropriately. Subsequent versions will also be optimized for such scenarios.
15. After setting the screen refresh rate to 90FPS in the game space, is there a feeling of spurring the battlefield?
A: At present, only some games support the 90FPS refresh rate. Since the stimulus battlefield does not support 90FPS display temporarily, it is recommended to set the screen refresh rate to 60FPS or “Auto”. The recommended setting is “Auto”, and the game works better when the game settings match the screen refresh rate.
16. What is the effective rate of the 240Hz touch screen reporting rate?
A: Add the app to the game space application list. The application in the game space list can support the 240Hz touch screen report rate regardless of whether it is open in the game space.
17. When the hands are held horizontally (especially in the game state), the WiFi signal is affected?
A: The Red Devils esports game phone uses a dual antenna design. The WiFi antenna is located on both sides of the top of the phone. It is recommended that you do not hold the top of the phone with your palm when playing games or watching movies on the horizontal screen. Use your fingers to support your phone to prevent the phone's wifi signal from being blocked.
18. Will the fan get into the water and get into the ash?
A: The fan body can achieve IP55 waterproof and dustproof, and all of them have passed relevant tests. Please feel free to use them. It is recommended that you use them with care to avoid any troubles to your experience.
19. Can't connect to the computer?
A: The latest bidirectional Type-C data cable is included in the package, not the traditional data cable with USB interface.
If your computer is relatively new, with a Type-C interface (smaller, similar to the charging interface on the bottom of the phone), the original data cable included in the package can be directly connected.
If your computer comes with a normal USB interface (traditional, larger USB interface), use a traditional Type-C data cable with a USB interface. In most cases, the data cable can be used universally.
But be careful not to use the Huawei brand data cable, you may encounter compatibility issues.
After plugging in the computer, you need to unlock the phone first, and click the top line from the drop-down status bar to say "Android system is charging this device via USB", click on the menu, and then select "Transfer File", then you can get from the computer. I saw the connection information. If you still have problems, please contact the after-sales detection process.
20, the system is too inhuman, and add some daily application functions. WeChat Alipay payment code sweep, shortcut keys to open flashlights and so on.
A: The above said that there is already, please pull down the notification bar, swipe to the right, click "+", which is "custom".
Go to the bottom of the page to list more switches, click to add the switch you need, long press the added switch, you can freely adjust the position of the shortcut switch.
Everyone has other questions, welcome to post ~
Of course, in the process of using, when you find fresh and fun and interesting features, you are also welcome to send out, sharing is a pleasure, but also the motivation for us to persist in innovation and make good products, and continue to advance!

Interesting.
As soon as i try to shift to wqhd+ with 120 hz , the performance of the phone decreases alot , i see stutters here and there . The phone remains extra warm while using , even the typing isnt as smooth.
But as soon as i switch to fhd+ , omg the phone is really fast again .. no stutters ,
Phone remains very light warm , typing super snooth .
Is there anyone facing the same issue ?
( reminds of my old s9plus with exynos where it was not able to handle wqhd resolution.)
My point is , why do they even offer wqhd when the chipset is weak to handle ?
Is there anyone facing the same thing ?
Fine here , been using wqhd 120hz since first time

Exynos ?
What are your ambient temperatures outside ?
I found WQHD to be smoother. Phone seemed less hesitant (for lack of a better word) in day to day interaction. For example, when set to FHD+, there would be a small delay after unlocking, before the screen starting accepting a touch input. Nothing lagged, but there was this feeling that the CPU/GPU was scaling up an FHD interface onto a WQHD screen (Number of pixels remain the same on the screen, whatever resolution you pick). Once i changed to native WQHD resolution, everything seemed to be instantaneous. It may be consuming more battery, I'm not sure - but i don't see a worse battery life than what it was on FHD+.
During a CODM session I noticed that FHD+ gameplay was smoother than WQHD - so that's probably going to be my use case for FHD+ - Gaming. For everything else, I'll stick to WQHD for sometime and post my experience if I notice any downsides.
What i have noticed is , if you change the resolution from 1440 to 1080 .
The phones data in certain apps still shows that phone is rendering 515 ppi
A restart is must after changing resolution ..
Try to reduce to 1080p , do a reboot , and then use the phone and see if there is a difference ..
Will try today and see if the reboot idea makes a difference over the next 1-2 days

So far, FHD+ seems to be easier on the battery. The touch delay has disappeared after a reboot, so thanks for that suggestion!
Charged nearly a day ago, and did regular usage including half an hour of CODM, WhatsApp, XDA, reddit etc mostly on wifi. Auto dark mode (sunset to sunrise)
With that kind of use case, I'm at 19+ hours since full charge, 4+ hours of screen on time and still have around half the battery left.
I can live with that.

So thats the point .
Qhd is good , but its not easy on cpu/gpu as well as battery .
I am more concerned about the overall general performance , ( not gaming)
Hows the overall performance as of now ?
Like using whatsapp , insta ,facebook , typing , browsing , etc?
Better/smoother than qhd? Or similer ?

Honestly speaking, general performance seems no different between FHD and WQHD. I can't even tell which resolution I'm running unless I go to the resolution setting page.

Yes .. thats true .. its just after changing the setting . You realise that its different .
After like 5 mins of using i barely notice the change in resolution .
I dont know how you are able to achieve that type of battery ..
I might have tinkered with a lot of setting , installed galaxy labs and good lock too .
According to you should i get my phone restored ( software) once from the service centre ?
Or will the factory reset be enough ?

I have good lock too, haven't used labs. I like to tinker with my phone as well. But I don't usually make changes outside what the OS allows (I've changed only user facing options, not dug into system disabling apps, or other such activity)
Service center will not do anything more than what you will do at home. If you think you may have messed up too many settings and can't recover from it, just do a factory restore and set up again. But for the first week or so, expect poor battery life as the OS settles down. Coming from a OnePlus, I actually quite like Samsung software. It has a polish that OnePlus lacks, being built purely for Speed. It's quite robust, just make small incremental changes to set up to your liking, battery life will settle down to a comfortable level.
My battery life was terrible when I got the phone a week ago, but has continued to get better with time.

Honestly, I dont know. Only way to find out is to try. But once again, I don't think Service Centre people will do any special software flash that you cannot do with a factory reset at home. If I was you, i'd not give my phone to a stranger unless I couldn't manage or fix something myself first.
BTW, what is your major gripe with your phone? Battery life? SOT? Standby? Performance? What is bugging you so much?

Sot , battery . I could barely manage 5-6 hours sot without gaming .with Aod on fhd 120hz
Using the camera makes the phone heat up alot and after using camera it throttles and even scrolling feels a bit laggy .
Changing to wqhd and rebooting ,
The ui feels less smooth , the response time reduces , apps like snapchat and instagram start stuttering .

That doesn't sound alright. Have you done a lot (i mean a LOT) of tinkering with the OS? If so, something might have gone off the rails and causing problems. Impossible for me to say. But the phone is buttery smooth... I don't think you should accept any lagginess. Most of the heating issues are also gone after the April update, so I'm not sure what has your device spooked. Which country are you from? Can you get an easy replacement or are you stuck with your device like in India? I'm not saying your device is faulty, but if its bugging you and you can get a free replacement without losing money, get it swapped with a new one.
If that's not possible, the easiest way out will be a factory reset at home.
I'd say go for it, wipe and set it up afresh.

Unfortunately i am from india bro .
Bought offline ,
No replacement/return
I know if i submit in the service centre they are gonna destroy my phone ( may be sratches / mishandling or they could open the phone and destroy the waterproofing)
What i am planning is go to service centre and get the phone flashed again . ( i am least sure that it could be a bad os install on my phone )
A factory reset is what i can try at the moment .

Best of luck! Do keep me posted. I really hope you get this sorted out.
This is a very expensive heartache otherwise! I can imagine what you must be going through. Spend the Sunday setting up a freshly reset phone. If you start now, you should be done by night. Damn thing has soooooo many settings to navigate.

While setting up , did u install the samsung apps?
Are u signed in to samsung account?
Yes for both.
But I made sure to uncheck the Samsung Customisation Service during setup. I only ticked the boxes that were compulsory for allowing the setup to proceed.
Hi!
Is there any rom that provides the option of adaptive refresh rate? Is it possible to provide this option is a rom? Or is there another way to do so?
Full time 120Hz consumes a lot of battery.
Thanks!
You can enable the video toolbox for the application you want to use 120hz with and enable the adaptive refresh rate in the toolbox.
what is tollbox ?
i'haven't adaptive refresh rate....
Search for video toolbox in the settings. But yes I am seeing now that they removed that option for adaptive refresh rate.
It is kind of adaptive on 120hz, it drops to 60hz every chance it gets while not interacting with it.
This made myself and others here to lock it on 120hz.

I don't understand your question.
You said that it drops to 60 hz whenever it gets the chance. So is this feature only in MIUI or others have it too? For eg Arrow os
Hey everyone i tried 120 hz but cant notice any difference. Used in 120hz for month and now on 60hz but barely find any difference. How can i experience 120hz and 60hz difference. i want to feel difference but cant.

Overclock your eyes.
Now, seriously, some people can't manage to feel the difference between 60 and 120 hz, for me, it's like day and night, for my father, it's the same.

is there any specific app or moment to find the difference. Tried changing between 60hz and 120 hz to find difference but cant.

Almost every app that doesn't involve videos works with 120hz, you can feel it in your own OS

So should I switch to 60hz while watching movie to preserve battery or it automatically only displays 60?

It switches automatically
Many users of this device (including myself) have noticed bad touch input sensitivity when using the 144Hz mode, but not in 60Hz or Auto. I have found quite an odd solution that at least fixes the issue on my end, and I'd like more people to test this, so please, comment down below.
Okay, for this I don't believe you need root. Go to settings and enable USB debugging, find the Motorola Edge 20 USB drivers online and ADB & Fastboot of you choice.
Once you have done all of that, open ADB & Fastboot in a terminal and write the following without the quote marks and the comments that start with a dash (make sure your display is on and the phone is connected to the computer):
"adb devices"
-this command will make a message pop up on your phone asking you if you allow the current computer to access your phone, press allow
"adb shell settings put system peak_refresh_rate 120"
-this will make it so that your max refresh rate can be 120Hz. Keep in mind you can set this to either 48, 60, 90, 120 or 144.
"adb shell settings put system min_refresh_rate 120"
-this will set your minimum refresh rate that the phone will default to when it thinks that it doesn't need the maximum refresh rate. Again it can be set to 48, 60, 90, 120 or 144.
Note: You do not need to reboot, the changes are instant. You can freely use the power saving feature (it sets the refresh rate to 60 when enabled) as turning it off retains the parameters set. The parameters also remain after rebooting. You will have to re-introduce these commands only if you switch the refresh rate option in the settings. This is for the most part a one-time fix.
What this basically does is set the refresh rate parameters for your phone. Android has adaptive refresh rate that oscillates based on the content you watch. The "min_refresh_rate" is the lowest refresh rate your phone will use when conserving power (e.g sitting idle on a .pdf file or watching a 60fps video) and the "peak_refresh_rate" is the highest refresh rate the phone will reach when doing tasks it deems appropriate for 120fps. At least in theory. The reality is that setting any sort of parameters that aren't a fixed refresh rate (e.g 144Hz peak with 90Hz min) will be refused by your device, and it will choose to switch to 60Hz when it feels like it even if you have specifically set it to not do that.
I have used the phone for about a week now with these settings, and I'm positive it is better with 120Hz min and peak. You do not get touch issues at this refresh rate and your phone also doesn't annoyingly switch to 60Hz when scrolling through a web browser or Instagram. It is pinned to 120Hz. Although it sucks that the device is not usable at 144Hz, this is the best solution at the moment until Motorola decides to fix their device.
I unfortunately doubt this fixes the issues with the Indian release of the phone. From my understanding, the Indian market has received a varient that has an AMOLED display that comes with issues far more severe than what I've experienced on my unit. Hopefully it is a software issue rather than a hardware one.

I'll try this later tonight. Thanks for the tip.
Also, Motorola has announced in their forum that there is a fix coming for the touch issue in a software update.

Yes, I know this. But we all know Motorola is very slow with updates. If we get that fix by the end of the year we'll be very lucky. Set the refresh to 120 and 120 respectively. I feel that the phone is way more usable this way. I'll update the guide too.

My touch still had problems in 144Hz mode after doing this. In auto I never really had an issue. However it is useful to let the phone run at 120Hz all the time.

You shouldn't have touch problems with 120Hz fixed.

No I don't, only in 144Hz mode. Didn't have issue in auto mode before fixing the refresh rate either. Anyway let's hope the future update will fix 144Hz mode.

Yeah. Let's hope that it's at least not hardware related and can actually be fixed.
Running 144hz no touch issues hear Smooth as butter ,
Hey guys, title says it all. Has anyone else noticed this? It happens on both my X fold and X fold 2. Everything is smooth and great until you start running vids and put them into popup mode and the whole system is slowed to 60hz. Even when you turn it from smart switch to 120. It never happens on my Samsung and Xiaomi devices so it's gotta be something with vivo. Anyone have an idea that could fix it?

Have you set the 120hz mode, then turned on all the apps under the Apps that run in 120hz section too?
I just turned them all on, and even so it'll still drop to 60 in popup mode

hi. i allready did why have to be like this ? this is a joke, thankssss
I wanna say you need to set the performance to maximum somewhere as I had that problem with another phone. I'm not sure how it looks on vivo exactly.
Edit: It was on my Samsung phone

It's called Boost mode on Vivo and it's in the battery settings. I'll try it now, mess around for a bit and report back
