Xperia 1 vi lag

[GeorgeElefthe]

Hello. I ve just received my xperia 1 vi and it is very laggy especially when scrolling and opening folders.I have done factory restore 2 times and software repair, updated everything but the problem remains...Is it a known issue? Should i wait for a software update. I m coming from xperia 1 iv and v and no issues there.

For me, the best solution was to install GalaxyMaxHz https://github.com/tribalfs/GalaxyMaxHzPub
You need to grant access via ADB but it works afterwards. Then select Adaptive mode and also select "Keep selected mode on PSM". In "Default refresh rates" select Normal = 60 Hz and Power Saving = 60 Hz. This will help in avoiding the lag.

I did but it changes back after a while and always after a restart. With the latest update today they change the minimum refresh rate from 15 to 30 and the stuttering issue remains... less noticeable but still there. I also did a software repair.

Hey @GeorgeElefthe 

Why don't you try to enable the device on safe mode and check if the same issue will happen or not?

Here are the instructions https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/support/mobile-phones-tablets-mobile-phones/articles/00255266

I did and unfortunately the problem persist in safe mode also. Now with the latest update the issue its only noticeable when opening folders. I did performed a software repair also.

Hey @GeorgeElefthe 

That's odd, I'd recommend recording a video showing the glitches happens on your phone when you try to open folders, and contact Sony support, so they can escalate this from their end.
