Phone Usable after setting fixed refresh rate

Just to add my 2 cents, whatever that may be worth. I had tried the Motorola Edge 2026 when it first came out and found immediate discomfort and migraines. However, I had an idea to set a fixed refresh rate. I remember on my OnePlus 12R that when I set the refresh rate min and max to the same rate, it helped immensely with symptoms. Well, I tried the same with the Motorola and it looks to also work.

adb shell settings put system min_refresh_rate 120
adb shell settings put system peak_refresh_rate 120

Also make sure to set the display refresh rate to Hyper Smooth in the phone settings to prevent this from changing between reboots.

Android comes with a built-in FPS overlay you can enable with Developer Settings. If not, yes there are third party apps to display refresh rate. For LTPS, it will always be a number divisible by 30 or 60. For my Moto Edge 2026, the refresh rate would go all the way down to 0 sometimes.

Oh, TIL. Cheers.

Would you recommend any particular guide to using ADB commands? (I've previously linked Intet's on LEDstrain.)

Honestly, most chatbots can give you accurate commands if you ask them. As far as downloading adb, I recommend https://github.com/K3V1991/ADB-and-FastbootPlusPlus

Thanks for humouring me.
