Tutorial: Disable GOS (Game Optimizing Service) on Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, 60FPS Genshin Impact!

[@DameTech]

This is why your my favorite tech KZbinr! Thank you for this video. I do have a feeling Samsung may allow turning off GOS easier after all of this negative press. However, I did realize that FPS throttled down to same after 4 minutes or gameplay.

Guarantee it will be at least a month or a little longer before they do that. Really all this shouldn't be an issue. We're paying over $1,000 for a phone, it should be the consumer's choice to enable or disable the GOS app.

@@cool9282 unfortunately. I love this device for beautiful screen, cameras this zoom something beautiful. But battery is first problem for me as sometimes I am away like 12h a day from charger and need to be sure phone will handle so long, another thing I am a bit worried about is those problems with smoothness and games lags like hel. If I would knew they will fix it in next 2weeks I would be sure I would leave the device (and also that they will do something about this battery life, I don't need 8h SoT like iphone 13pro max well that would be great but i can live without so much, all I need is a 1 full day of my usage which is not so heavy, 5,5-6h SoT and I am happy my 2,5years old OnePlus 7 pro which I just plugged to a charger had 6:20h sot with 18% battery left.

You people bother about irrelevant things. How do you buy a $1200 phone for genshin impact? A PS5 is just $500. If you want to game, go buy a console. All these stupid tests are senseless

[@azenyr]

The thing is, you are getting a very small fps boost around 5 fps (10 at best in some places) for almost 3x the energy usage. Your battery will go down 3 times faster, and your phone heat up a lot more. It can actually be dangerous for the hardware. Samsung isn't stupid and their engineers have for sure very strong reasons to turn down the phones performance. However, it's very nice as an end user to be able to have some control over this, so it's still nice that we can actually disable it if we want

[@greenmiles9896]

True, but i think if GOS is limiting other apps performance like instagram or even camera app itself, it may be worth disabling. However for games its definitely a good thing to have as shown here

[@evelynlopez8314]

It is not whether we should or should not enable or disable GOS. . With this type of information samsung is in evidence of selling top phones overpowered without Developing technology to match processors vs heat dissipation. I think your point is valid about not worth it the "overclocking"but this should not be a trick on a 1300 euros phone. I think heat dissipation technology lacks a lot of development or at least samsung is not willing to invest in it even when we know about there has been a lot of new information about heat dissipation lately. Even with the vapor chamber in the s22 it seems to be obsolet already... Samsung has been exposed in selling race cars to match the competitors but putting them a governor in the gas throttle when the demo has finished.

[@psycho3324]

@@evelynlopez8314 I don't think that is the whole issue. GOS is a symptom of a larger issue. Phones always struggle in dissipating heat, if you can't control the heat dissipation. you control the heat output. which is what GOS is doing. Golden Reviewer takes a temperature reading of the device. And Samsung phones run cooler [at the expense of performance] GOS is doing it's job. it keeps the power consumption below 5W. In their eyes sacrificing performance for battery life/thermals is a tradeoff they're willing to accept and have been for the past 4 years. GOS is a symptom that S.LSI and ARM's in design chips have not been able to match or exceed Performance per Watt of that found in Qualcomm and Apple's Silicon. This is the band-aid that they've been using to meet their power requirements. Now what i'd like it to be possible is to disable it outright, yes maybe it's better for my battery to not get as hot. but my phone is my phone. I did the workaround, now my phone runs just as hot as it did back in One Ui 3. It also coincidentally runs Honkai better than it does stock.

[@chris.a9628]

For me who usually gets average of 25fps, I'll gladly take the 10fps increase 😂 and it does work. Now my average fps without gos is around 30-40fps which was never experienced on my S21u exynos 😂 it does generate a bit of extra heat but its worth it as long as you don't play for over an hour. First testing I did without gos I started with 80% battery and after 1hr and 30mins of gaming I was left with 20% battery. Using mobile data and with graphics at max. Now I still game without gos but at medium graphics. Still heats up tho but just as it would when playing pubg. Maybe at most 1° hotter

[@evelynlopez8314]

@@psycho3324 indeed it is not only a software stopper issue. But i still think processor manufactures and in this case samsung are building super fast phones and merchandising them as such but only on their conditions. Technology is there but they ate not willing to sacrifice one feature for overall better results for gamers. In example check lenovo duel there are many fails in the designed however there are sacrificing ip rating for better thermal conditions and thid is only the tip of the iceberg there so many thermal dissipation articles in the web and how to lower heat in exynos or qualcomm even cheap chipsets companies but as i said they are not willing to cross the line. I think shortly they should include a gaming option.for S series.

Very helpful. My problem wasn't with too little power, but auto locking refresh rate. Only change I'd recommend is using android sdk platform tools instead of that app. After disabling those 3 apps, my phone stopped locking my refresh rate to 48hz when playing intense games. Edit: if you only want to disable variable refresh rate for games (and not boost power usage) leave game optimization services ON. The refresh rate will still be constant, but you won't be wasting that extra power.

[@andyH_England]

We can see why Samsung forced GOS on all users, the battery life. If they had let it run at 100% then in these battery life tests the S22 line would have tanked and been well beaten in these battery reviews. Very dodgy by Samsung. The main reason being that they do not throttle the benchmarks. What that means is they fake performance and battery life. I am not arguing against GOS per se, just that users should not have to go through hoops to have the choice. A simple pop-up when we game asking whether you want to disable GOS would have been consumer-friendly, not default throttling. From comment sections it appears 90% plus of Samsung owners never knew that they would never get close to the benchmark scores when playing games, and may explain why 120FPS games are few and far between. Well done to all the techies that have exposed this Samsung practice and it will be all forgotten in a month or so once Samsung has put it right, but to the Samsung apologists that defend this, you should not put brand loyalty above consumer rights. Samsung made a mistake for sure but they responded quickly and come out of it well once they have removed this trick and no doubt Geekbench will repost their scores on their lists.

I have S22 ultra, i have solved it with another way. For games you must use game booster plus plugin in game booster to unlock 60fps (i got 46-60fps) in Genshin (choose max fps, all other setting max, turn off frame booster) . Also to increase the performance, you can choose high performance (there optimal, high, max) (max is not stable in my opinion) in battery setting. Also you can reduce the animation speed to increase snappy UI (in dev mode) . And you can turn off the auto close apps in battery settings too. So S22 can use 100% of the ram. Actually i prefer 48fps in Genshin if they provide it 😂😂

Hi. I write this comment, maybe its help someone. I disabled the gos, like in the video but thats all, i did nothing else from this video. + Hint If you are using 5g internet instead wifi, turn it only 4g ( LTE ) 5g make it more heating. For me, now the gaming performamce far better. Anyway i cant say abour the more heating thing, cause i play wild rift on my galaxy s22 EXYNOS phone nearly medium settings, its anyway heat the phone and drain the battery so... :D Anyway thank you for the video, its helps a lot to deactice gos!

[@theRaika]

They should rename the app from 'Game' to 'Battery' Optimization, also they should give us the consumer the option to choose if we want battery or performance mode. Just give us simple options in a gaming app with per game settings like, - CPU Max frequency slider for each cluster - GPU Max frequency slider - Toggle to Restrict Background Processes, etc And other simple options like these that people will easily understand.

[@thefreeden]

Pretty sure that's what "optimizations" means. Optimal usually doesn't mean max performance as much as it means balance of battery usage and performance. Personally I prefer GOS on because having it off makes the phone heat up like a laptop which isn't good for a device with no active cooling.

@@abhaypatil2000 why ?

[@stefanusrianto8781]

@@mks1702 if you keep using your phone in high use while already it's already hot, it might shorten the lifespan of the phone. If you want to keep using it with high power like this, you should buy a cooler from Blackshark or ROG to compensate the high temperature

[@HJ-io5ch]

Why they do it tho? there much be reason or they just bonkers?

[@P1sharky]

All this does is prove samsung was smart in using GoS ..they realized they needed a solution for the overheating from the note 7 imo..and just finally arrived at this safeguard...should they have made everyone aware of it is debatable.

[@malystxy5601]

Gos is not a problem, lack of cooling for the soc is.

[@nguyentienanh2206]

Galaxy S10+ with Exynos 9820 here, definitely saw an improvement. I'm running the game at a combination of medium/high settings, with framerate mostly staying in the 60/high 50s mark. FPS will dip a little lower during heavy combat or when the back gets too hot, but still, nowhere near as bad as the agressive throttling Samsung did that made the game pretty much unplayable after just a few minutes. Also, for folks who haven't update your OS, up until Android 11 there was a way to completely remove the GOS app through adb. Look it up and there should be a tutorial thread on XDA.

[@patriciomarco]

That way to remove gos through adb doesn't work on Android 12?

[@syncronate]

is this gos problem only related to one ui 4 or it also occurs on one ui 3.1?

[@jhonatanjhs]

When playing wild rift, my s10+ exynos version, already heats up a lot, I'm afraid of damaging the phone by disabling GOS, when playing longer sessions. ^^ idk if it's worth for others apps.

[@asadullahshah23]

Hello i also have s10 plus . Should i use this method or not? And how will i turn it on gos again when i have turned it off

[@sarawootpattamapong5511]

The game slow because it will limit CPU speed when the temperature is too high and save battery. Just plug in the charger and use mini fan to get the best fps.

[@KingoftheJiangl]

Don't disable .. it prevents your phone from thermal throttling which is much worse than the default throttle

[@damara2268]

Noo it doesn't. The Qualcomm chipset throttles on it's own. GOS only tells it to throttle much more

[@nikzous]

Can we hide the sign of VPN ( a small key) from the desktop?

[@theblitz1687]

Can you show the average power result before and after throttling like you did before? You can just put it as a picture as well as long as you show it. We also cant read the red text on top left of the smartphones. Can you increase font size and make it black or white? Lastly, could you find out whats the render resolution on genshin? For comparison purposes.

[@tgamez6789]

Finally.. Samsung phones are gonna use their full power 💪

[@Genta.Aditya]

Galaxy S21+ Exynos model, confirmed working on Honkai Impact also, the game is so much smoother on APHO2 mode, but also heats up so much faster too. Good thing i have a peltier cooler for this thing. Thanks a lot man! Now we need Samsung to address this, and let us have a toggle to do this officially.

[@bryancalle7352]

Did you try this method with power saving mode turned on as well? I wonder if by limiting CPU to 70% but keeping GPU unlocked we can see better performance but less heat.

[@Genta.Aditya]

@@bryancalle7352 never have Power saving mode on unless the battery goes below 60%. So no, normal mode.

[@soul-the_argonaut5211]

Honkai has issues? I played on an S20 and never got any lag or problems 🤕was very unaware

[@Genta.Aditya]

@@soul-the_argonaut5211 try APHO2 with maxed settings. It's not laggy per se, there are bunch of stutters when you move between areas at high speed (Timido dash), and especially visible when your device starts to warm up when fighting against a lot of enemies or a boss.

[@sussyman7361]

Thank you,now my samsung s8 snapdragon 835 almost get 50 fps on medium setting

[@akaraikiriakatsuki3157]

So now that the safety was off, we just need to find a way to cool it down. Does samsung have battery bypass feature? Play with just the brick charger and have battery go idle.

[@vasujagdish8725]

I already disabled GOS 2 years ago lol I know GOS is causing some performance issues and I reach to samsung customer care for this problem probably they thought I am weired but now this issue is popping out when I disabled GOS my samsung performance increase and run smooth and even games too

[@andyH_England]

Yes, GOS has come up again bc in OneUI 4.0 Samsung stopped you from disabling it.

[@pauljoseph3081]

Pushing your phone to sprint on a daily basis is not a good thing at all. I would turn GOS and would probably buy accessories like a controller to avoid touching the phone while playing, our hands alone can add heating or those nice cooling fans that you can stick to the back of the phone.

[@azimabdukarimov6091]

Man it isn't give full information because you play only 4 min , if you really want to check you need to play 30 or 60 min. And 44 fps is level of 870 which smartphones demonstrating 4200 frame on 3dmark wildlife stress test. Meizu 18pro, Gaming phones, p50pro give stability around 5000-6000 frame and 50-60fps on genshin.

[@thisispjetro]

I am no gamer but this is why I prefer iOS over Android - things on iOS just work. And no need for such adjustments. I am using S22 Ultra and Pixel 6 Pro along my iPhone 13 Pro and in most scenarios iPhone is better. Daylight camera on S22 Ultra is AMAZING, so is zoom. But shutter lag sucks. Pixel's blur prevention is perfect for kids and also action pan. But its fingerprint is still not good.

Great review as always! How about doing a battery drain comparison between GOS off and on? Say about 30mins of Genshin playing at max settings.

That would be great. Also how about a power drain/Performance comparison on say KZbin, web browsing and a background music or audio playing. I'm curious if you'd lose battery life on non intensive apps too.

He literally showed in this video that the power consumption with GOS off is basically doubled, do the math, it's going to lead to shorter runtimes

[@aliffsuhaimi1466]

Just for fun, can you try dipping the S22 Ultra into water container and do the game test? Its just like the one you do with the iPhone 13 Pro Max. Or, slap the Blackshark Cooler on the back of the S22 Ultra and do the test. I just want to see if the S22 Ultra (SD8G1 and Ex2200) can stay stable 60fps if enough cooling is given.

[@Innovate-pq9ci]

Or you can use Geforce Now and play Genshin Impact on the cloud at 120fps 1440p on RTX 3080 GPU... Don't make your life complicated when you don't have to :)

[@lavitra.]

Dont know about 60 fps, but it definitely will have a high and stable frame rate when enough cooling is given - even with game optimisation service on. I'm pretty sure it can give a constant 50+ fps frame rate in that case. Can confirm from playing pubg mobile on my s7 and s9. Cooling is all that's required. A fan like the blackshark one will more than do the trick.

[@sireajeel5009]

you can't interact with the phone underwater? or can you my physics understandings say otherwise
