Well, this didn't work for me.  Same problem as before.  Nothing above 30Hz for 1920x1080 and no resolutions available below 1920x1080.  
I downloaded the file and used X-plore to install it.  I didn't delete/remove anything prior to the install.  
Did I do it right?  
Thanks

Also tested this build on my setup - same result - no duplicates in the Whitelist - but also nothing above 30Hz for 1080. I do see 720 - also with frequencies from 30 Hz down. When selected Kodi does use 720 for content in that range but in my case the upscaling by the TV (if it does upscale) look horrible. If not selected Kodi selects 1080/24 which looks fine.

Fingers x-ed for a fix  & Thnx for all the effort!

All those people getting 1080p and 720p resolutions for 30Hz and below only.  Are you running nVidia Shield TV?

If so what is your nVidia Shield TV output format at the Android level?  Mine is 2160p 50Hz 4:2:2 12-bit Rec 2020, and I get all 1080p and 720p modes in my whitelist.

I also make sure that my TV and AVR are in-circuit and powered up and I do a full power cycle of my Shield TV when I install/update Kodi - to ensure EDID for the TV and AVR are read properly by Android at boot up.

And don't forget your Debug Log ...

It has been reported for quite some time now that not all resolutions are "reported" to Kodi when Shield's output is set to one of the 4:2:0 modes. I don't know why it is like that, but it has been this way since Nougat update I think.

 Good. So nothing at all to do for us here. They should fix their broken firmware. The missing DESKTOP res is a kodi bug though.

Yep! the missing DESKTOP resolution is the only thing that needs to be fixed

Hello,

I am not running on an NVidia Shield and I have the same problem. 
I have the resolution 1080p 60hz and 50hz but not the 24hz like I used to have in kodi 17.6.
I am running on a freebox player mini (french box running on android nougat).

I just try the test apk above, I have a new duplicated line for 1080p 50hz and that's all.. Still nothing for 24hz

What could I do or try ?

Thanks a lot,
BR

Nothing. Android is unmaintained and bugs are only fixed by volunteers from other subsystems that invest a bit of time to help out. Best bet is: Get your hands dirty and try to fix them.

What about this build (32 bit arm): http://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/andro...bi-v7a.apk <- more resolutions available?

[phoenk]

And here is the log

Same thing as the alpha2 version, 1080p 24hz resolution is found but nothing in the white list or refresh rate settings

Indeed, the version tested is the 32 bit arm, only new resolution between alpha2 was the duplicated 50hz.

Anyway, why do you think it's an android problem as it was working with the kodi 17.6 ?

Thanks again

[phoenk]

Well, I did try something with your version :

Put my box resolution to 24hz, restart the box, start kodi, and now I can see the whiteList settings for 24hz resolution BUT... still no auto refresh rate adjustment .

[fritsch]

Final idea: http://jenkins.kodi.tv/job/BuildMulti-Android/57/ wait until androidrf-647eb47 androidrf-67c340a  hits the mirrors (see above for the directory, will build for arm and arm64).

It seems a LE Rockchip developer fixed some whitelist issue with the following patch.
Maybe it can be useful for Android and other platforms too?

Those make sense - thank you. Without that it would compare apples with pies ...
