[Q] Is it possible to add these moto x features? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Moto display, the nexus version seems inferior to what the moto x has.
I'd like to be able to have moto actions too so that I see my notifications with a wave of my hand.
Moto Voice, on the moto x it's always on (even when the screen is off) and you can change the phrase from ok Google
And double twist to start the Camera
Also I'm coming from a locked BL Samsung so I'm used to features and lag, which nexus 6 rom has the most features?

Bro, go with Bliss Pop ROM. Feature packed and has the OK Google everywhere. As for the twist to start camera thing, would be cool to have but seems moot. I mean either swipe from the bottom right of the unlock screen or say OK Google, then launch camera.?

Moto Display / Active Display (See Moto E 2nd Gen)

So... it looks like Motorola came up with a way to utilize Moto Display on the 2nd Generation Moto E without an AMOLED screen - probably similar to how Peek works things. I wonder if they'll port that over to the Moto G 2nd Gen - or if they'll wait and stick it on a 3rd generation Moto G.
I read something somewhere that the second G was supposed to get it but not sure how accurate that source was. Also not really sure what implications this will have on battery life.
If they do implement it however, I hope there is a way to disable it. I'd be willing to test it but will probably not use it.

If you want to really use Moto Display, use the AcDisplay app on the Play Store. It does practicaly the same
Moto display is Ambient Display???
If yes, Is a thing already present on 5.0
Ambient Display - While your phone’s display is off, Ambient Display can show notifications without turning on the full display. This will be triggered when a notification arrives. You will see notifications similar to that shown on the lock screen. You can turn this feature on in the Display menu in Settings, and note that it will increase the power consumption of your device.
Moto G (2nd Generation) - Android™ 5.0 Lollipop - Release Notes
Or you talking about something else?
see my pic, i'm on stock + xposed is not a custom ROM.
It's similar, yes, but it is definitely NOT the same. With moto display, the phone turns on and shows you the notification when you pick it up, move it, take it out of you pocket. That's really the part that I would like to see happen on the Moto G.
Yeah, I am aware that it could affect battery life. My battery life is fine, I would still like to see how it would be.
Test the App 'Gravity Screen' from Playstore. It has the same functions as you described...
Yep, have that installed. Still working on tweaking the settings, but as of yet, I haven't found it as reliable as the same type of features on the first generation Moto X.
the functions that you want are from this app... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.aon or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.motodisplay
Moto E is not on supported list...
I did not see a E 2nd Gen, but i don't think it will have that, only have the Ambient Display, like Moto g on L...
If it have, must be easy to port to G, the hardware is very close....
If is something different from that moto app, share a video a demo, because i'm curios.

Here's the official announcement video. The time index of talking about Active Display is about..... 2:49 or so. It's definitely there. And yeah, I know about Ambient Display, ACDisplay, Dynamic Notifications, Peek, and Gravity Switch, and all the things one can do to try to hack the feature in. They work, more or less. But on my Moto X 2013, active display simply works more reliably. If the Moto E feature ends up ported to the G, I'd be very happy to see it.
custom rom
Guys,
Is there any chance to get any custom rom for moto e 2nd gen because i'm thinking of buying this phone
Looks like the Moto G 3rd gen ended up with Moto Display / Active Display like the Moto E 2nd Gen. Not sure if that means AMOLED screen on it, or if it's using some other way to keep the battery use down.

i download the moto g 3° rom, copy all the files that are related to moto display (all that i think is need maybe there is more), i don't plan to make it work, because i don't use it:silly:, but if you wanna here a zip...
the zip flash ok, but don't work in the rom i'm at (AOSP) it gives a FC ''com.motorola.system'' or some like that did not print the error.
if you try and not work use the Cleaner-MotoDisplay_3.0 will remove every file of the zip MotoDisplay_3.0
have fun... :good:

Right....it's missing LED Notification light on 3rdG.....so how the "Moto Display" works ? If I put it on my office desk, should I pick it up everytime I want to see the notification ? Because every few minutes I go to different rooms.

A bit late, but, should this work? I flashed it but I don't know how to access the feature. Should it have created an app or a settings option? I am using CM12.1, it has Ambient Display but it doesn't work quite as well as the stock Moto Display.
Moto G2 had ambient display built in with 12.1 . Sadly, they removed the feature around August. It had to do something with the kernel was not intended to support it.

Stock Moto apps for custom rom

Is it possible to have the original apps extracted from stock rom and make them work on a custom rom?
There are many custom roms around but the MM ones are based on CM and such and doesn't contain those apps.
Anyone, please ?

You are asking for something that has long been solved, for over a year now.
@bhb27 has flags that allow you to install most of the original Moto apps from the Google Play store. That way you can have only the apps you want and not a lot of bloatware.
Even back on Lollipop, Resurrection Remix had most Moto Apps that you want. And that method carried forward on Marshmallow.

Be Aware some app will not work
I have not tested Gallery because it conflict with theme app (please use another gallery app like QuickPick It gets integrated by camera app just like the default gallery.
Moto email, it install but doesn't let use the app.
Moto voice, it just not install.
All the rest available Moto app seems to be working.
Be aware I will try to fix this app on the future but i don't give any prediction of when, this is not my priority this is a CyanogemMod base ROM not a Motorola or google , any user can use google and search a way to fix this problem, if any one do let me know I will check and made the change so every one can have all available apps working.

Sorry about assumptions but they didn't specify all the apps included. I thought these should come with gapps package. My bad then.
I just didn't want to get all sort of different roms and see which one is best but I see this might be best option.
I'll give them a go.
Thanks for your help.
The only thing missing for me from stock is Moto Display. Yes, I know Ambient Display functions similar but Moto Display is NOT a lockscreen. It is just an app that runs while the screen is off.
I don't know how many people use this, but I like to keep a pattern lock (can be PIN, etc) and use the lockscreen quick setting toggle to set the lockscreen off. So its either press the power button and get locksreen or get home screen.
However, I have no way of knowing if I have a notification if my lockscreen is off. With Moto Display, it told me whether my lockscreen is on or off. I have since used Tasker to utilize the charging LED for notification but I still dream of Moto Display on custom ROMs. Devs have done a great job with bringing most of the features over though. I love the chop chop and twist gestures.

Quark Ambient Display works better than Moto Display, in my opinion. If you don't like it, you can always go back to stock ROM or even @iiWoodstocK Marshmallow stock-based ROM (which works on all Quarks). This has been discussed ad infinitum.
I also use a pattern lock as does my wife, and we have no issues. So, apparently you just don't have your phone configured correctly?
I'll give you some free advice:
However, I have no way of knowing if I have a notification if my lock-screen is off.

If your lock-screen is OFF, then your display is active. If your display is active, why do you need Moto Display/Ambient Display?
Here's the question... Why is your display off, and your screen is not locked?
I see no advantage to the complicated configuration you described and I barely understand. You are already using a pattern lock -- but for some reason you are purposefully keeping your screen unlocked even when the display is off/asleep?
If your display is off (screen is dark/asleep), your screen should be locked. If it's not, you don't have it configured correctly. Set it to lock the screen IMMEDIATELY when the display is off (goes to sleep). THE END.
If your screen is off and locked, you have every functionality and more with Ambient Display as Moto Display.
You then use your security pattern to unlock the screen when you need it and make the display active (turned on/not asleep).
And if your screen is unlocked and ACTIVE and turned on, then you have no need for Moto Display/Ambient Display during that time because your notifications are at the top in the Notification Bar.
I see no need for a dark (asleep) screen, yet unlocked display. So, your complaint makes no sense. It's like wanting to keep your car in "Drive", yet complaining when you take your foot off the brakes the car starts moving. If the car is not going anywhere, put it in "Park"!

My thoughts exactly!!! I love everything about this rom...the one thing missing is Moto Display. Specifically i want....
When i touch the phone to show the time. This doesn't work on the rom. I have to actually click the power button to bring the screen on. I want my "tap for the time" feature back.
I'm planning to backup this rom and try the other one (stock 6.0) but i dont think i will like it as much. Wish we could get this functionality somehow in the Resurrection Remix ROM (that's what I'm using, sorry, just realized i didn't mention that, lol).

WE HAVE THAT FUNCTIONALITY.
WE HAVE EVEN BETTER THAN THAT FUNCTIONALITY.
You have something set wrong, then. When I wave my hand over the phone, I see the time. I'm not touching the power button. I'm using the IR sensors and Quark Ambient Display. You don't have to touch the display at all. You must have the wave and pickup settings turned off? Sounds like you have just turned on Ambient Display master switch but haven't configured Gestures to control what Ambient Display actually does?
You keep saying "the ROM". What ROM? Oh, I see now RR.
I'm on Marshmallow RR, but before that CM12.1 (and my wife is still on that). Quark Ambient Display works great to see the time by just waving your hand over the phone. Works even about 12 inches up.
Set up your Ambient Display correctly and stop complaining.
Here's an earlier post to show you how to configure your Ambient Display.

FIRST, Gestures for Camera and Flashlight are in Settings/Gestures. You will see them in the screenshots below, but they are not highlighted. The highlighted boxes are for your Moto Display question. But if you scroll down you will see the double twist and chop chop in the Gestures screenshot. Go into those and activate camera and flashlight.
SECOND, Ambient Display in the Quarks = Moto Display. Dev made sure it works quite well with our IR sensors. Ambient Display in our Quarks works differently from regular Android Ambient Display. The dev made it work very much like Moto Display, even though it's still called Ambient Display.
There's 3 settings pages where you enable options to make it all work together, however.

In Lock Screen, you need to have some sort of of screen lock, even if it's just swipe/slide lock. Either swipe, pattern or PIN. You can't choose "none". I choose pattern, but it's up to you.
IF you choose swipe, you may accidentally unlock your phone if you keep it in your pocket. Pin or pattern is better, in my opinion.
Also, helps if you have "Automatically Lock" and "Power Button Instantly Locks" Some people put a delay on those for some reason, and then Ambient Display isn't going to show you notifications on the dark screen because the Display isn't actually locked.
Thank you for the very helpful info, although there was no reason to get pissed at me just because I got something wrong. Well technically not wrong, just a different way of setting up the phone....
After a few days of playing with this and researching (this is my first time on any quark roms other than stock, and first experience with MM, so in turn ambient display), i determined i was not seeing the desired behaivior because i dont lock my phone. Apparently (and i see you noted this at the bottom of your post) if you don't have the phone lock, the wave, or tap, to show time doesn't work. Unfortunately for me, this is how i like my phone set up, and with Moto Display this worked fine. With Ambient Display, whether its by design, or a flaw, does not have this functionality.
If there is a way to add this functionality please let me know, as it is the only thing missing. i love ambient display so far other than that.
Thanks again for your help

Sorry for the tone. It's just this has been discussed incessantly and most times it's because people don't bother looking at what's already been done.
To prove my point, I also extensively referenced the lock screen in my previous post to the other guy, before you even posted. I was merely repeating myself in my post to you. Why did you finally realize it when I repeated myself?
My point was if your screen is dark, it should be locked. And Ambient Display will work fine. This was my post just above your first post in this thread:

Yes, Ambient Display is a lock-screen notification system.
That post content I re-posted was from March 2016, and it was only the most recent.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66024940&postcount=225
I've posted that or similar maybe two dozen times over the past two years.
This phone has been released for two years now -- not just the Droid Turbo, but all the models in the Quark series. They all have the same hardware and same specs, same stock Motorola software.
However the Droid Turbo owners lost a year of development because the bootloader was not unlocked until November 2015. (the other Quarks have free immediate bootloader unlock on request). And although the Droid Turbo owners had access to READ about the Moto Maxx/Moto Turbo development, they got mad (because they didn't want to see dev work they couldn't have) and demanded the forums be split.
We used to be ONE forum, but in late September 2015 the forums were split. Less than two months later Sunshine team unlocked the Droid Turbo bootloader.
As a result, many Droid Turbo owners still don't realize about the OTHER Quark forum and aren't as informed/educated about what all has been developed.
Moto Display itself is proprietary code and will never be "ported". The Quark CM dev put a lot of effort into adapting "Android" Ambient Display into using the Quark Moto IR sensors so it mimicked Moto Display as much as possible. In some cases, it's even better. But yes, it still is a lock screen notification system.
The RR dev @bhb27 was the first to put in permission flags to allow access to most Moto apps, if you want them. Almost all. That was also before the Droid Turbo bootloader was ever unlocked.
At this point, two years into development, there's really nothing else that is going to be done in this category that has not already been done. A whole lot has been done! Most people who are asking (not you personally, but collective) are just coming onto the scene with their Droid Turbos do not really understand the extensive custom dev work we have already for the Quark. Part is they are a year behind, maybe they are just now realizing Sunshine is available or they don't know about the other forum.

AOSP rom with Nougat and Moto app?

I want to upgrade my Moto X 2014 to android N but without losing his functions, and with an AOSP rom (can be CM based too)
We should stick a post on this matter, because people are either unable to read or too lazy to search.
There's basically four Moto features:
TWIST TO CAMERA: working in all ROMs (however, Moto Camera doesn't work with DPI other than 480)
CHOP TO TORCH: working in all ROMs
MOTO VOICE: NOT available, it's closed source so we have to manually tweak Google Now/Assistant to recognize our voice from a LOCKED, UNPLUGGED phone (see XDA homepage for a guide on this)
MOTO DISPLAY: NOT available, there's a modified Ambient Display that uses the same sensors (including IR, of course) and it works pretty well.
However, Moto and Ambient are NOT the same thing: Moto is a dedicated app which shows your notifications in a streamlined way and it will keep them in the panel even if you swipe them out of sight; moreover, it will not wake your entire screen if you touch the black area outside the clock/notifications.
Ambient Display, on the other hand, is simply a grayscale lockscreen. It's not nearly as practical as Moto, but the sensors to activate it are the same.
Can someone please make this post a sticky so people do not ask the same questions a hundred more times?

The new motodisplay is dumber than the old one. It used to not unlock when i cover the proximity sensor, even if i tried to drag down. This though, it unlocks even my finger is on the sensor.

I'm on XT1900-7 (Retail EU) version, stuck on 8.0 and I'm thinking about switching to an Android One firmware, but I use a lot of Moto features and I don't know if I'll find them in A1.
These are the features I'm talking about:
- Moto Gestures (shake to camera, hammer to flash, three-finger screenshot, etc)
- Moto Display (a LOT better than stock Ambient Display!)
- One-button navigation (back-recent-home with fingerprint sensor)
Thanks in advance.

A1 is missing the One Button Navigation, and there does not appear to be away to enable it. There was a hack in pre-Oreo that you could do, and then take each OTA since then.
The others are there.

Thanks. What about Moto Voice, Moto Key and the Moto Launcher?
Also, Phone and Contacts apps are Google ones or Moto ones?

Moto Voice and Key are not present, and the apps are from Google.
