In addition to what Pavel said: 20.4/24.9 is excellent for 3.0A resolution (try phenix.polygon to see for yourself) - and perhaps unrealistic, since you have so many Ramachandran outliers.  If you fix the outliers (and any other geometry problems) and R-free increases again after refinement, you may still want to accept those results, if the final values of R/R-free are otherwise reasonable.
