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.?
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.
there's a flashable zip for moto display its for stock moto x 2015 but i flashed the zip on my moto x 2014 running nx rom, it seems it can work but for some reason the ambient display turns on when i turn on moto display....is there any way to fix this i guess it needs a little workaround maybe ?
but 'moto' and 'moto actions' needs to be installed as well from playstore
i've attached the flashable zip
for the IR sensors to work with moto display extract the arm.rar and paste those to files into system/lib and give root permission and reboot
i did not create this zip i found it on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63574299&postcount=2

yes it will work no doubt but i guess it needs a little workaround i fisrt tried on NX ROM....flashed the zip via and then you need to go to playstore and install moto and moto actions as well to see moto display and now i've flashed it on RR ROM, it gets installed the only thing for both of the rom is that when moto display is enabled ambient display turns on as well and that's the problem...if there was a way to disable ambient display or delete it...then i guess moto display would had triggered
it needs a little workaround to be fully functional like i said
I didn't knew moto gesture was needed. I can install it and I see the two : "motorola gesture" and "moto screen" in the home menu of the Moto app
But when i wave my hand over the device it activate the screen with the ambient display design (just the clock and notification like in the notification center (rectangular))
I don't know if i'm missing something but i'd like to help you if I can cause i miss this feature from the stock rom
I don't understand if you have both Ambient display AND Moto Display (I think it would be weird )
Oh and by the way sorry is the traduction & the English aren't perfect, i'm french and my device is in french too ..

oh you have to enable root explorer swipe from left to right in your es file explorer scroll down and enable root explorer it will then ask you for permission grant it and then copy those two lib file in your system/lib and paste there and give root permission
but still it doesn't works even after giving root permission to those two files maybe something is missing or could be due to ambient display

So I just happened to come across this thread, interesting that it seems to work with the stock version of the MotoDisplay APK... (it hasn't been modified or anything)
Does the NX Rom have a custom APK to determine if the proximity sensor has been tripped (I know the CM rom's have this)? If so, then it could be that which is triggering the Active Display, and you would just change it to calling the MotoDisplay methods instead...

all the custom roms including NX rom or RR rom has ambient display feature, when moto display enabled the ambient display turns on as well and so ambient display triggers but if i go into settings and disable ambient display it seems that the IR sensors does not work with moto display, the IR sensors are linked to display, i think we are missing something here if we could turn on those IR sensors with a file or lib/IR sensors service libs or if we could link those sensors with moto display then disabling ambeint display may work with moto display when hand waved, also yesterday i tried an app called active notify, enabling ambient display and active notify works when active notify is set as default lockscreen while disabling the ambient display does not works as the IR sensors turns off. So i think that if we can somehow link those IR sensors with moto display then i guess it will get the job done
I was asking myself, did you take a look of other forums like MotoG2 (even if it don't has an Amoled screen, the forum is really active) or MotoX Pure/style/play ? Maybe someone tried to port the Moto display feature on other phones.
Hi guys,
I want to share with you app called Moto Display handwave, which add very useful feature to Moto Display. Display will activate when you wave over proximity sensor.
This app will only work on stock rom.
Here is that app:
Play Store
Thanks to:
BaltiApps for app...
Enjoy guys....
it dont work.do i need to make something special?
i am on stock rom with latest squid kernel.
it works!But unfortunatelly u have also to enable screen notifications inside stock Moto app,that is quite iritating because screen turns on with every single move.So this mod has to have option to work only with wave hand to be perfect..
RR already took care of that, lol
really???excellent news,god bless him this is the only thing that misses from this incredible device!
I have been using Glance Plus as the Moto Display substitute for quite a while now, I really think it is a good alternative to it, if not better.
yeah i use this also now with paid features is by far the best till now.
Found this thread, it was modded for the Moto Z, but it is working great on my Moto X Pure XT1575. The new Moto actions will not install though.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/themes/apk-moto-display-moto-x4-t3682701
Great find! Finally moto display makes sense after this update. Thanks a lot!
the moto displaye works.. but moto action while installing doesn't even open the file.. it throws error..
there was problem while phrasing the package

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.

So how to uninstall this? Can't find the uninstall button except disabling it, doing which disables the original Moto display too.
Answer: Go to play store. Search for Moto Display and click uninstall.
