I made the Pixel 8 Pro's display 20x better with a single line of code


And all it took was the work of a humble genius in the custom ROM community.

(Image credit: Nicholas Sutrich / Android Central)I was able to ramp up my Pixel 8 Pro's PWM rate with a single line of code but had to do a bit of work to get to that point. Once rooted, a single line of code can change the PWM rate of the Pixel 8 Pro on the fly, making me wonder why Google can't give users the ability to do this themselves.
