We performed a phase-resolved timing analysis of GRS 1915+105 in its ρ state and identify detailed ρ cycle evolution of frequency, amplitude and coherence of the low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillation (LFQPO). We combined our timing results with the spectral study by Neilsen et al. (2011) to do an elaborate contrast analysis. The results are naturally explained by tying the LFQPO to the corona.
