If you have a OnePlus 6 and want to improve the fluidity of the screen, you will be interested in the dynamics proposed by a new MOD from the XDA community.
It won't be like the OnePlus 7 Pro with its 90Hz screen refresh rate, but it will come quite close. According to the tests they have carried out, this MOD can force a higher refresh rate of the OnePlus 6 screen reaching up to 70-72 HZ.
How to implement the MOD
Although the author of this MOD, the user ProtoDeVNan0 has also tested with 75 Hz, it did not work as expected, even so the improvement it has achieved is remarkable. In this XDA thread all the instructions to implement this MOD are given.
If you are wondering if this change will affect battery life, the answer is no. It is a relatively small change to notice any difference. Remember that these experiments must always be carried out with caution, they may not result in our device or it may cause serious problems.
Also, the dynamics of this MOD may be deprecated in an upcoming software update. For those who want to venture, they will see that the user shares different.zip files to download on a Windows computer and thus start the process towards the mobile.
They will see that it gives clear instructions to carry out the process safely. And if you follow the thread of the conversation you will see some doubts that other users expressed before applying the MOD.
Another MOD to consider
Another XDA user, acervenky, created a MOD that allows giving a stereo sound to the OnePlus 6. It is an interesting addition since the device only has one speaker. So the trick is to turn the headset into a second speaker for playing audio or music.
All instructions for applying this dynamic can be found in this Xda thread, along with the files and other content. Some requirements he mentions is that you need to have Viper Audio or NoLimits ROM. And also, it is essential to have Magisk.
It is important to read user comments carefully before applying any changes to know what problems may arise and thus save yourself some headaches.
