I would like the Ambient Display to stay on Longer then it currently does. Does anyone know if this is possible via some mod or app?
EDIT: Oops...wrong forum. Would on OP please move to Q&A... thanks.

Hey @djmend
I was wondering the same and found that Lightflow seems to do it, it detects ambient display as a LED so you can control how long the notifications keeps blinking, however it causes a weird behavior with mine, even when there are not notifications in the notification drawer if you turn off the display by pressing the power button ambien display turns it on again to show the clock for a couple of times. I contacted the developer and said that it should not happen, give it a try it may work for you.
I hope it helps

Pardon the thread if someone's already answered this, but is there a hack anywhere to allow you to rotate the active display feature? I love to enable 180 degree rotation for times when I want the charger to be on top, but the only drawback is Active Notifications still display at the normal orientation.
Can it be done?

You could try App Settings. It's an Xposed module.
Thanks, I hadn't heard of that module before. I gave it a try and forced the app orientation to auto-rotate and saw no difference. It actually stopped displaying notification info so I had to uninstall App Settings.
I almost wonder if Active Display is hardcoded to display notifications from the standard orientation.
Oh well, thanks anyways!

Hello Guys! I installed one of the CM12 bases ROMs for our device (Candy), and I like it a lot, everything worked super... BUT...
After fidgetting around with the phone, Ambient Display no longer seems to work. I've tried to un-do all the changes that I did, but to no avail. Ambient Display just quit working. And yes, the setting is of course marked as "On" on Lights and Display Settings.
Any help on how to fix this? I suspect it may be something very silly...
Thanks in advance.
EDIT - Solve the problem. I somehow disabled the lockscreen without noticing, and Ambient Display doesn't work when the lockscreen is disabled. This is so silly that this here should probably be deleted. Thanks.

Good luck. There will be a fix...
check if you have turned on Ambient Display in Settings/Display&lights.

Thanks for your suggestion but i can't find your path. Where is: user aware display or gestures?
Have you tried this feature. Lights up the screen when you receive any notification.. You can set it to other colors..
#prettycool
I've been playing around with this myself, doesn't appear like there is any customization to this which I wish there was to extend the time it stays on screen. Also it doesn't seem to work if you use custom texting apps for example.
Yeah it would have been nice to customize the colors, duration (time and repeat), and which notifications. Really like it though. I've missed a flashing status light to get my attention.

He was able to change it to whatever color? Or it was just showing the different factory set colors?

There's a few of those apps, and this one worked best for me! I stopped using it (uninstalled) though, too much battery drain!

Go to notification settings on the custom texting app, importance, urgent. That should activate the blue frame. Worked for me on the Signal text app.
useless in the dark?
It almost makes up for the lack of Notification LED.
My only issue with this feature is that it only works when the AOD is on... so it is useless at night or in the dark.
I haven't figured out how to keep the AOD on while in the dark, I feel the phone vibrate but you have to press the power button a couple of times to wake up the V40. Anyone else having a similar issue? is there a setting?

Screen protector issue...

Come to find out my issue is with the screen protector. It doesn't have a notch at the top, just holes for the cameras and speaker, and a clear spot for the sensor between the cameras... but that's not enough. So when there is not enough light, the sensor thinks it's in the pocket and the screen goes dark... and no knock to un-lock.

Yes, KnockON is enabled under "Extensions". I've found that knock or fingerprint don't work if the sensor in the front is covered. Only the power button.

Hey guys give this a try, I hate AOD and I'm disappointed this phone has no LED. But I traded this phone for my Mate 10 Pro so it's alright.

Does anyone know what theme that is?

what about always on display that shows the notifications?

It's called "Glance View", and there are multiple options. Always on is possible. Turn on for notification is possible. Honestly I don't know if you can turn *off* the screen-on during notifications. I have the settings seen in the attached screenshot, and when I get a notification it just turns on the display, showing the time and fingerprint sensor, but none of the notifications themselves.
At night I see this red sensor/light in top left corner. May just be a motion sensor for the glance display

I've got a CN version of this phone. I it updated the day after I received it so I think some of the notification issues mentioned before has been resolved... or at least I haven't experienced what some others have described yet.
at the moment I seem to be receiving the notifications as they arrive... but I still miss them because there is no easy way to know the notifications have arrived!!
The AOD / screen off clock is quite useless (at least in the CN ROM) it only shows the clock, missed call and SMS. Thats it. I'm trying notify buddy now, which kind of solves the problem. I say "kind of", because while it does allow me to have an LED notification, it deactivates the finger print sensor until you wake it. And also I seem to be getting large battery drain with it.
AOE doesn't work for me.
Is there anyway to get the screen off clock to show other notifications as well ?
Thanks for anyones help.

I got EU version and have exactly the same problem. ColorOS 6.1
I googled a lot trying to find a way to personalize AOD clock (like Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro) but I couldn't find anything.
I searched also for a method to make it show other notifications but there isn't nothing.
Maybebe someone else found something?
Unfortunately I think the situation won't change too much with Android 10.

Actually it will. Android 10/reame ui brings new AOD with notification and customizations.
Have look here at 3:48

I'm afraid he said nothing about app notifications on AOD. Although, there is a notification switch in Screen-Off Display settings, so maybe there is a chance
Its really annoying that they made a phone without useful AOD notifications AND without an LED for notifications.. having to turn on the screen to check for notifications is inconvenient and probably uses more battery.
really hope the next update sorts this out.
on a side note, notifybuddy does solve kinda solve this problem.. but its not an elegant solution.
major battery drain and the finger print sensor is blocked by the notifybuddy overlay..
I'm planning to buy the X2 pro and had the same question. Does the phone allow to see new app notification preview on screen off display (AOD)... and not just the app icon?
Currently I am using the mia1 and I am able to see new app notification flashes in Ambient mode... without waking the phone.
Thanks in advance.

The screen edge flashes for a couple of seconds when you recieve something, though you can't know which app it is if you have multiple notifications. No preview as far as I've noticed.

Thanks. Sad to know that even an app icon doesn't show up on a screen off display If they want to move closer to stock Android these are some of the features they should have. Oxygen atleast has paid heed to this concern by releasing beta versions for op7 and op7t.
Personalising the screen off clocks doesn't help me much. I'd rather do away with the clock and mantra and get the msg preview feature in.
Thanks

Ah no, that's not what I mean. You get the icon, but it doesn't show the message or blink the icon (so if you have multiple icons, you don't know which is the current notification).
