Rooting and Custom Firmware: Is it worth it?
The gaming community loves root access for overclocking the GPU or using controller mappers. However, for the INFINIX GT 20 Pro, proceed with caution.
- Why to avoid Root: INFINIX uses a proprietary "TrustZone" for the Pixelworks X5 chip. Rooting breaks the digital signature, causing the dedicated display chip to stop working. You will lose MEMC (Motion Estimation Motion Compensation) from 48fps to 120fps.
- Unlocking Bootloader: Currently, only the "Deep Test" APK provided by INFINIX works. Submit an application to INFINIX to get a unique unlock code (Takes 7 days).
- Custom ROMs: There is no stable LineageOS or Pixel Experience for the GT 20 Pro yet due to the lack of open-source drivers for the Dimensity 8200 Ultimate.
