I have my touchpad hanging with 3M hangers, as media and insteon controller. The one thing I want is a screen saver type clock that doesn't show the buttons, battery etc on the bottom "tray". Also, I want one that doesn't actually light the whole screen, but only lights the time, and preferably moves around to avoid burn-in.
In summary:
- hides bottom tray
- lights up only the time (not a slightly lighted black background)
- clock moves to avoid burn-in
Any other suggestions for this setup are great too.
Thanks
It is physically impossible to not light up the whole screen because of the display technology that the TP uses. The stock android clock app should be fullscreen and move the clock around
Yes I have that app. But will leaving the screen on w this Clock app ruin the screen? Not because of burn in but just because it's always lit

I have been searching the forums all morning. I can't seem to find the name of the app that puts a power bar at the top of the screen. I came with one of the cooked roms that I was running on my wizard. If some one could point me in the right direction, I would be very happy. I loved that feature, it would go white while charging turn red when I was at about 15% battery, and it was always at the top the screen no matter what app I was running. Thanks in advance.

battery bar
sounds like you are talking about batti...or the other would be vistahide battery gauge.
Thanks so much. LOL now have two to choose from. Thanks for the quick response.

wish I could have batti's features with vistahide's multi color bar.
pBar 1.5 is my favourite task manager and also can display a 1 pixel Battery Bar at the top of the screen. The bar goes from Flashing Red, Solid Red, Solid Green (0-5%, 5-10%, 10-100%). The bar is silver/grey when charging.
As far as I know I have enabled notifications and setting for the edge features, but I can't seem to figure out how to get any of them to actually show up. When the phone is locked and the screen is off, touching, tapping, or swiping the edges and nothing happens. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong? Any thoughts suggestions?

Found out, there's a secret squirrel motion that you have to do on the edge that is set in settings. When I get a text from one of the people setup in my favorite contacts wakes the phone up. I can swipe on the edge where the visible notification bar is to have it expand out, but I'd assume instead if waking up the phone it would show the selected notifications in the edge screen.

As cool and the edge display is its pretty useless ATM.
Well not useless persay more like limeted. I can think of some good future uses like maybe a youtube where all the info stuff is pushed to the edges so takes up less screen space, notification pushing just to the edge light the edge and not waking up the phone. using just the edge to check the time saving battery ((good for while working)) I'm hoping for someone to get api's to open up programms to use the edge as a sliders for productivity stuff but thats just hoping.
I think a real missed oppertunity here from samsung with this phone and considering they used a glass back was making a touch interface there for like scrolling web pages and selecting stuff without having to touch the front screen interruping your view.
So, I am noticing a new icon showing at the top of my watch face and I don't know what it's indicating.
It looks like a white dot with a horizontal dash through it. What is this?
I found out why - I had Do Not Disturb turned on (for some reason).
Received my S21U yesterday and noticed a weird thing happens when vivid mode is on.
Basically, the colours change when apps take up the whole screen. It's mostly a slight change but it's really visible on skin tones. On my device when things are full screen, people's faces look pale, yellow and washed out. This disappears immediately if I put the app into pop-up view, splitscreen, or if I open another pop up app over the top. It also disappears if I swipe up to go to recent apps and the current app minimizes. It's annoying because the skin tones look normal and healthy when not full screen. Then as soon I full screen whatever I'm looking at the colours change straight away before my eyes and I see the washed out yellow skin tones appear. This doesn't happen on natural mode or when eye comfort is on, it only happens with vivid.
The same issue happened on my Note 20 Ultra, but the yellowed/washed out colours were SO much worse that I ended up returning it. Oddly enough it doesn't happen on my Tab S7+.
If you have a spare minute and you'd like to see if this happens on your device, open this random image of the legend William Hung full screen with vivid mode on. Then try swiping up to see recent apps and then tapping the app to full screen the image again. If the same thing happens on your device you should notice the skin tones change. He should look normal when the window isn't full but on full screen he looks really yellow and ill. The same should happen if you open it in split screen or popup view or open another app in pop up view over the top.
Anyone else noticed this or know why it happens? It actually kind of annoys me as the skin tones look ugly and at this price point I expect everything to be perfect.
Cheers!
Cheers!
Just checked, and I'm unable to duplicate that problem with the picture you shared. No change it skin tone at all.
NVM, I see what you mean. I see a darker shade in the recent apps menu when I swipe up, and then when I go back to the original image, it gets lighter. NOt a big deal to me. Why does it bother you?
Is it normal that the Always On Display Clock stay in one place on the screen or should it move about to protect the screen?
