As most of you might know, OnePlus removed the proximity wake option from OOS lately, replacing it with the lift to wake feature. If you want to use the proximity wake feature, you either have to switch to a custom ROM or use an outdated version of OOS. Both options might be suited for most people, but in case you prefer to use latest OOS and still want to use proximity wake, I have some kind of workaround.
PLEASE NOTE: it seems that the given shell command does not work on Android Oreo (OOS Open Beta as of writing). Check the latest posts of this thread for any progress.
I came across this shell command, which will trigger the ambient display:
Code:
am broadcast -a com.android.systemui.doze.pulse com.android.systemui
A big shoutout to @Quinny899 for providing me the code to trigger ambient display by shell command.
You can use this command with Tasker to trigger it when the proximity sensor is covered for some seconds or even when you wave your hand over it. I haven't had the time to get such a profile working until now, but I know that it can be archived easily.
In case you use the above command, ensure you check the "use root" option in Tasker's context menu for the shell command!
EDIT: I managed to get this working :good: Below my implementation. I am sure there is room for optimization, but this is just a basic task and it works for me (OOS 4.5.13 with Tasker 5.0u6).
You need three profiles. Two of them will check the proximity sensor state while screen is off, the third one actually triggers the ambient display while screen is off and proximity sensor has been covered (by waving over it for example).
First of all, we need to ensure that Tasker will monitor the proximity sensor while screen is off. For this, open the three-dot menu, select Preferences and navigate to the Monitor tab. Set "Proximity Sensor" to "On". That's it.
Second, you have to enable the Ambient Display option via Settings -> Display, otherwise this won't work at all (thanks to @Devildire for confirmation)
Let's have a look at the needed profiles:
Code:
[B]PROFILE [I]Prox OFF[/I]
[/B]State -> Sensor -> Proximity Sensor -> invert
State -> Display -> Display State -> "Off"
[B]TASK [I]Proximity uncovered[/I]
[/B]Variable -> Set -> %Prox = false
[B]PROFILE [I]Prox ON[/I]
[/B]State -> Sensor -> Proximity Sensor
State -> Display -> Display State -> "Off"
[B]TASK [I]Proximity covered[/I]
[/B]Variable -> Set -> %Prox = true
[B]PROFILE [I]Wake Ambient Display[/I]
[/B]State -> Display -> Display State -> "Off"
State -> Variables -> Variable Value -> %Prox = true
[B]TASK [I]Wake Proximity Display[/I]
[/B]Task -> Wait -> 1s
Task -> IF -> %Prox = false
Code -> Run Shell -> am broadcast -a com.android.systemui.doze.pulse com.android.systemui (DON'T FORGET TO CHECK "USE ROOT")
That's it. Now turn off your screen and try to wake the ambient display by waving your hand over the proximity sensor.
EDIT: Tasker profiles can be found in post #7.
EDIT #2: @Arstoien provided us with an improved version of my basic tasks, check it out here.
Thanks for the guide on how to, great work from you for the community
OP updated with instructions. Feel free to comment and share your experience or any kind of optimization proposes. Please note that the implementation is only a rough imitation of the original proximity wake feature, most likely this implementation needs some polishing.
Hey there. Sounds intriguing... I'm not understanding the stacked profiles... It seems you've got it triggering with two conditions. How do you do that?
Or... Would it be possible to upload the profiles and tasks for importing?
@saccentekennedy
If you want to add another trigger to a profile, just long-press the first trigger condition and Tasker will prompt you with a popup window where you can select to add another trigger option.
If anyone else is interested, I might upload the profiles later.
Hi guys , any file so that we can import it on tasker (if it has such system) to get this. !!??!!
Please find attached the requested profiles.
EDIT: You might want to change the wait time within the wake ambient display task to 1s instead of 300ms, this one actually works way better.

Yes look in the code last line
Mhm I have root, Tasker has a root-entry in magisk, added the profiles in post #7, changed the proximity sensor to yes, but it is not working.
Ok... So I've discovered that this breaks pocket mode... Every time I took my phone out to unlock with my finger, it had already registered several attempts my leg had made. I guess it makes sense this might be a problem.

As said before, this is just a rough workaround, it works for me (but not as perfect as the former in-built option). It works if you move your hand slowly over the sensor.

Hmm, I don't have this issue, but we might add another trigger option to the wake ambient profile: only trigger if display is face-up. This way it won't be triggered if the device is in your pocket.
After looking over what you steup in Tasker........The biggest question is "What does the phone do when it is in your pocket?" I think if you can figure out a solid Tasker-based solution to that question, this will be something worth using. Great work.
It works (more or less)
@dre-z:
try changing the wait time within the wake ambient display task to 1s instead of 300ms. Works better for me and might enable the whole thing on your device. 300ms to wait until your hand moved over the sensor completely seems to be a bit too short.

Seems like the command is not working for me. The command triggers, but the screen doesn't wake up. Any ideas what's wrong?

Did you check the "use root" option in the corresponding task?
I use the downloaded profles and yes, root is checked. Using OP5 up to date OOS.
Edit: maybe there is something wrong with shell execution. Can you give me information about what I have to enter using tasker's "send intent" action instead?
I have an unrooted/unchanged/stock Huawei P10 running EMUI 5.1 and am trying to debug a website I'm making. Latest Chrome on the P10 and latest Chrome on my Retina MacBook Pro 15'' (late 2013) High Sierra 10.13
The route worked on all my previous devices. USB Debugging is checked on, I plug in the cable and say yes to the prompt "Allow Access to device data?". Next prompt "Allow USB Debugging" -> OK gives me the following error: "An App is obscuring a permission request. Settings can't verify your response"
Looking for solutions I read stuff about background apps which mess up things. All I know of / remember installing is "Mi Band Tools", and "Pie Controls".
I tried to shut down "Mi Band Tools" via Settings -> Apps -> Mi Band Tools -> "Stop" – But it seems not to be stopped for long? Since I don't know if this would solve the problem anways, I figured to come here first. It would be great if I wouldn't have to uninstall these apps.. always a pain to restore etc.
Thank you very much!

I had the same problem with my Huawei Honor View10.
I had to uncheck the "Permit drawing over other apps" for a (in my case) JINA Drawer. Maybe you have to uncheck an other one...
In EMUI 8 = Settings - Apps - Apps & notifications - Apps - Settings (bottom of screen) - Special access - Draw over other apps
Good luck!

If it doesnt work, disable the last app you enabled, and if it works again...that is the app that is doing the dirty work...mine was not in the system apps it was one of my apps which is AZ Screen Recorder lol....(why the app that is being used everyday need to be disabled....)

1. Apps such as Blue light filter apps constantly appear on the top of your screen thus breaking some of the on screen functionalities. Try disabling display over other apps permission of such apps and you should be fine.
2. Also, sometimes it is because of your custom launcher, so try switching to your stock launcher if above solutions don't work.
3. If Accessibility for some apps are on then try disabling them first.
PS : Of all the 3 solutions try the possible ones.
Hope it helps.

This put me on the right track.
I have an LG G6 running Android 8.0. My Keeper Security app needs permission to Draw over other apps and since around December 2018 it has started acting 'flaky'. The app would warn me that I need to turn on this permission, but when I clicked "OK" in the Keeper app to take me to the Android setting for the app, it was always turned on. I could turn it ON/OFF, along with the setting that needed this permission in the Keeper app (called Keeper Fill) and eventually get it to work again, but it would always break again very soon after.
As I am getting ready to go on a trip, I installed Google's Datally app. It, too, wants me to turn on Draw over other apps, but when I tap "next" to be taken to the Android settings page to enable Draw over other apps, nothing happens (I usually expect an app detects it has been enabled and gives "success" message).
So I started disabling the 3 possible suspects listed by kapil1100. I had LG's Comfort View and some Accessibility options enabled, so I turned them off and: no change.
I disabled all other apps that have permission to Draw over other apps via: Settings > Apps & notifications > Special access > Draw over other apps, and: no change.
I use Evie launcher, so I went back to the stock one: no change.
I got thinking about what else could be modifying/accessing the screen and realized that LG has custom Home touch buttons.
I went to: Settings > Display > Home touch buttons > Hide Home touch buttons and DISABLED Show lock/hide icon and then tried enabling Draw over other apps for Datally and IT WORKED!.
I was then able to turn Show lock/hide icon back ON and everything has been working as expected. I suspect that, because I had Show lock/hide icon turned on during an upgrade, something got messed up and my turning it OFF and back ON fixed the issue.
I hope this helps someone!
Hi,
I have set up the display timeout option with the settings below but it doesn't seem to work. I am using an oppo phone on Android 12.
Create a new task. Select the “+” button. Select “Display” followed by “Display timeout” Select the time span you want to set and then save. Now select “Profile” and click “+” and then “Applications” Mark the applications for which you want to activate this Tasker profile.
Then I open the app but after 15 seconds the screen turns off which is the default device screen timeout.
Is there no way to override this? Maybe get tasker to somehow keep interacting with the screen to keep it on?
I've tried this on a few apps and have got two different messages..
One says screen will stay on for 15 seconds which is the system screen time out.
Other says tasker will keep screen on but still times out after 15 seconds.
Really want this to work as some apps like games I don't want timing out after 15 seconds and I don't want to increase the system time to couple of mins for every app.
Hi,
I have the same problem on my OPPO A74 with Android 11 ((ColorOS Version V11.1). It seems impossible to create a task to change the screen time out; not in connection with a profile, shortcut or widget. The amazing thing, though - when you test the task in Tasker it works perfectly fine.
Media Volume, I think, also doesn't work. Other app connected profiles like autorotate or display brightness work well. I wanted to test more but I can't find the time.
I really miss the screen timeout though. It drains the battery too much to set it constantly to 15 minutes or so, but for some apps less simply is annoying.
The developer created some apk to help with some OPPO related problems, unfortunately, it didn't help with this one (sorry, I can't remember exactly what it was).
A kind of workaround: Once you've activated the Developer Options an your phone you can enable "Keep screen on while charging". When you need longer screen time, just plug into a charger.
But using a Tasker Profile would be much nicer.
Hope somebody knows a better trick.
Not sure if following could help your situation ( only for your gaming situation )
Create a new Profile, choose > apps > add your game apps in it. click left top arrow when finisning add gaming apps.
Tasker will pops-up task list > creat new task > Screen > Turn on.
** when above profile is complete , click the task when you are still in Profile list. Hold the task, it should pops-up with option exit task. Choose this as exit task.
Play around to see if this profile is working when gaming apps in foreground, screen never turn off.
EDIT: Try first not move the task as exit task. ( make the task as normal entry task )

Thanks for your reply.
Creating the profile is not the problem. It just seems that Tasker cannot change the system's setting. As mentioned, there is no problem when you create a profile allowing the screen to rotate using a speciffic app (and others as well ) I have no idea, why it does not work for the screen timeout.

"Display / turn on" works fine when I want the screen to turn on with a notification. But the screen turns dark after the system timeout has passed. I've also tried "Display / Stay On / with Wireless, AC or USB Power" and with the AutoInput Plugin "Screen Off Or On: Turn On / Timeout Never" but the screen always turns dark.
Those Profiles always worked on my other Smartphones (LG -D405, LG-K10 and Moto G6). I believe, it's the ColorOs that's causing the trouble.

below is a task ONLY FOR ROOTED DEVICE., no harm to try even if your's not root.
New task , run shell command , in the command input
there is a button 'use root' , check that button also.
settings put system screen_off_timeout 200000
** 200000 I'm not sure sure equals to how many second., just give it a try and if you get a longer screen on time from your issue it means it is working.
also, make another separate task, search for 'custom setting'. look up from there I thingk it is in system something about screen timeout.
EDIT: run shell command task suggest you run it manually., than see if it works. if not, restart device to check if it requires a restart in order to accept new timeout settings.

I feel like I'm in Star Trek - "To boldly go, where no one has gone before" XD
When I try your suggestion, I only receive the message that my device isn't rooted.
Btw, for some tasks it is necessary to enable the Write Secure Setting Permission (f.e. Set Assistant), where xou have to setup ADB on your PC. Would such a procedure be registered by the phone as rooting? Anyway, I don't think I would dare to do something I know so little of.
Another solution I was thinking of, is it possible to create a tasker quick tile/ quick setting to change the system screen timeout.
So instead of having it change for certain apps which isn't working at the moment.
Maybe if we can change it from the system so will be for all apps. You can create two separate quick tiles to toggle between different screen timeout settings.
The newest version of Tasker (6.0.9) comes with Tasky.
Tasky offers the possibility to activate premade profiles. One of them is "Keep Display Awake For Apps". And that one works with my OPPO Phone.
I also tried "Auto-Mute Apps", another profile I couldn't get working. It also works fine.
To switch between Tasker and Tasky you just have to click on the "Three-Dots-Button" in the right top corner. It's not like switching apps but using different user interfaces.
Good luck!
- Sorry to say, but this seems to work for some apps and not for others. But at least sometimes it does work.
Thanks for replying back to this thread to inform me. I tried it and it works for the app I was trying to make it work for which is good! Makes it so much easier now.
Note: app compatible with any phone with 1080x2400 screen or lower. Probably higher too, try it. Also it's impossible to make such block when talking in messengers (more precisely, it's difficult). App won't work without gapps, rare case.
Instead of classic reliable optical sensor we have sucky ultrasonic one.
Sometimes it does not turn off the screen while phone call and something is pressed with ear or cheek up to dropping call.
Popular workaround is app "Call Proximity Sensor Fix" which automatically turns off the screen. Or you can press the power button immediately after the answer.
But IMHO this is inconvenient because if you need to look at something on the screen it will not turn on by itself which is so familiar.
My simple application makes screen insensitive to taps. And unlike analogs soft buttons and status bar are blocked too (but not gestures).
On screen will be translucent button that disables lock if you need to use the phone:
– Long tap on button - unlock (button will turn green)
– Short tap when unlocked - lock again
– Long tap when unlocked - remove button at all so as not to interfere with e.g. for entering text
When second call comes in screen will automatically unlock so you can easily answer or hang up. Then it blocks again.
When manually launching the application there will be a question whether to enable 4 seconds delay for an outgoing call. So you able to choose SIM card.
Made by powerful Tasker, the project was exported as standalone application via App Factory. Implemented via scenes with new full-screen blocking type.
Location of button adapted for default AOSP / Google Dialer. It can be misplaced for third-party dialers and / or interface scale. It's impossible to cover all possible variants. So if it really bothers you, install Tasker and project below. Then change coordinates of the buttons.
Installation
Follow manual carefully, otherwise nothing will work.
Application is safe and doesn't have internet access.
1. Download APK below this post
2. Install it via file manager and launch
3. Answer the question about delay, decision can be changed later by launching app again
4. Open Settings > Apps & Notifications > In-Call Screen Lock
5. In "Notifications" turn off them all completely, otherwise they will be annoy you
6. In "Permissions" enable everything: Contacts, Call List and Phone
7. MIUI: right there in application settings enable "Autostart"
8. MIUI: and in "Background" select "No restrictions"
9. Custom: Settings > Apps & Notifications > Advanced > Special app access > Battery optimization > All apps > In-Call Screen Lock > Don't optimize
10. Custom: Settings > Apps & Notifications > Advanced > Special app access > Display over other apps > In-Call Screen Lock > Allow display over other apps
11. MIUI: Settings > Privacy > Management > Special app access > Display over other apps > In-Call Screen Lock > Allow display over other apps
12. Settings > [MIUI: Advanced settings] > Accessibility > In-Call Screen Lock > enable "Use In-Call Screen Lock"
If you using Tasker
1. Download ZIP archive below this post
2. Extract file from it to phone/Tasker/projects
3. Tap on "House" icon at the bottom > Import Project > In-Call_Screen_Lock
4. If you don't need a delay on an outgoing call: delete / disable action #3 ("Wait") from the "In-Call Lock Start" task
5. Custom: Settings > Apps & Notifications > Advanced > Special app access > Display over other apps > Tasker > Allow display over other apps
6. MIUI: Settings > Privacy > Management > Special app access > Display over other apps > Tasker > Allow display over other apps
7. Settings > [MIUI: Advanced settings] > Accessibility > Tasker > enable "Use Tasker"
UPD: files updated, fixed small bug.

Unfortunately, APK's exported by Tasker always have dependencies from GMS no matter actions it should perform. Sorry, I can't fix that.
I reinstal Arrow with Gapps and Install tasker. IT works great! Thx a lot! Now ist this Phone uesable.
Great application. Tested it via Tasker and works. Thank you so much!
Small question, if you do use the power button while in call to lock the screen and you unlock it again and then use your unlock button, it unlocks but the button disappears so you can't lock it again. How do I get the button back then?
Note: sensors are automatically calibrated and sometimes this creates a problem.
To cleanup and recalibrate the sensors, all you need to do is this:
Bash:
# dd if=/dev/block/by-name/persistbak of=/dev/block/by-name/persist conv=notrunc
For me that solved everything on official MIUI V13.0.12.0 (and previously on V12.5.9.0).

That's strange. I tested as you wrote and button visible, nothing in profile logic should block its appearing. I used clean Android 11 and AOSP dialer.
As possible workaround please test this: Tasker > tab "Scenes" > Lock On > tap on lock icon > tab "Long tap" > action "Show Scene" > tick "Block Overlay+"

That's legit for classic sensor, but I'm doubt, that ultrasonic store its calibration data there (if even have it). "Sensor" unreliable just by design.

Thanks for the information. Tested it and ticking the block overlay + fixes the issue. I guess it's because even though I'm able to tap the icon and other call icons the phone is still locked. I guess the overlay + makes sure that the lock off scene is still visible on the "lock" screen. I'm on Samsung One UI 4.1 with the native Google dialer.
Thanks for the help.

ultrasonic sensor can be even manually calibrated and the calibration is indeed stored and used.
Also: the ultrasonic sensor works in software, relying also on the position and angle of the phone.
If that measurement fails or is inaccurate, everything is ruined.
Trust me: try to do a fastboot flash of V13.0.12.0 then reset that partition as I said.
Then you can tell me if it improves or not.
For me now it works perfect both in DUO both in the stock dialer and messenger.

Android Auto - XLauncher Unlocked v2.0.1
Custom Android Auto launcher, unleash your AA app, unlock more features!
- Source code
- Documentation
- Releases
- XDA Thread
Features
NameDescriptionRoot requiredXposed requiredDefaultSet the next used launch option as defaultClassicLaunch the Android Auto settings, with the classic/stable styleMaterial3Launch the Android Auto settings, with the hidden/experimental Material3 styleDebugLaunch various hidden Android Auto debug screensXposed ModuleUnlock more 3th party Android Auto apps! (e.g. Fermata, OsmAnd, S2A, ...)
Description
XLauncher Unlocked is a separate app, to unlock more features in your Android Auto app.
It can launch existing / hidden Android Auto screens with root / ADB commands.
Classic can be launched without root.
If using the Xposed module,
then it will also hook into an existing Android Auto function,
to run some additional code behind it,
to make some of the "installed as Google Play" checks always come back as valid,
which does not modify the AA app itself.
Due to the nature of the implementation of the features,
you should not have to be afraid of "having to wipe AA data to test".
Because no AA data is touched / no AA files are edited in a persistent way.
Default "launch option"
The "Set the next used launch option as default" check-mark can be used to
automatically launch the "launch option" behind the button you click after checking the check-mark.
After a default "launch option" is configured, the next times you open XLauncher Unlocked,
it will automatically open that "launch option" for you.
This works for every "launch option" (Classic, Material3, Debug options),
and can easily be re-configured by selecting another "launch option" with the check-mark still configured.
Clearing/resetting the usage of the default "launch option" is as easy as un-checking the check-mark

New v2.0 release is out which added a bunch of launcher functions!
You can download it from GitHub: https://github.com/Rikj000/Android-Auto-XLauncher-Unlocked/releases/tag/v2.0
Thank you. Interesting app, I will have to play and investigate
I use PlayStore and Play Protect did not let me to install.
I could have to disable Play Protect but I repackaged your app and installed pretending it as it was installed by PlayStore (screenshot).
Now it runs ok and Play protect does not complain
I have just an observation about the main screen. Buttons don't fit to my display (probably since I use enlarged text) and there is no way to scroll and to read the cut-off part on the right side.
Screenshot attached
The other Material screens I tried were ok
Thank you for the feedback @zgfg
Just reworked the installation instructions,
now pointing users to KingInstaller to install the app.
I'll try to figure out a fix to make the UI display correctly on enlarged screens.
However, scrolling up/down appears to work when I enlarge my screen
What's the difference between Classic, Default and Material3? Do you have screenshots?

Classic launches AA with the 'classic' design, Material3 with the Material 3 design - screenshots
I suppose Default can make Material to become default style for the future launches (not necessarily from this launcher) but I don't want to wipe AA data to test

Classic = The old / default user interface.
Material3 = The new / hidden / experimental user interface.
Check the attached files for comparison screenshots.

I cannot scroll left/right to read the cut-off text (yellow boxed on the screenshot), like Trouble..., Feedback repo ..

XLauncher Unlocked is a separate app which doesn't modify any Android Auto related things (files/settings).
It simply launches existing / hidden Android Auto screens with root / ADB commands.
And if using the Xposed module, then it will also hook into an existing Android Auto function,
to run some additional code behind it, to make some of the "installed as Google Play" checks always come back as valid, which does not modify the AA app itself.
Due to the nature of the implementation of the features,
you should not have to be afraid of "having to wipe AA data to test".
Because no AA data is touched / no AA files are edited in a persistent way.

I know, you've reported this earlier, v2.0 is not optimized to handle screen enlargement.
Work Around - GUI cropped on enlarged screens
To make the GUI display correctly, please open your Settings app and go to:
Display => Display size and text => Display size => Reduce the size by a few clicks.
Restore the Display size again once you're done playing with XLauncher Unlocked
and once you have a default "launch option" configured.

Thank you very much for the screenshots.
I thought the app will change the Android Auto view in the car. But the app changes the Android Auto phone app. Thank you very much for the clarification.
Maybe I missed in the menus... Is it possible to have the option to switch on/off CoolWalk view in the car
It is possible by AA AIO Tweaker but I don't know is it just some setting for AA or AIO Tweaker has to tweak the AA db
New v2.0.1 release is out which fixed the non-scroll-able Debug "launch options" section on enlarged screens!

It's not possible with AAXLU (Android Auto XLauncher Unlocked),
but afaik it should be as simple as renaming following file at
/data/data/com.google.android.projection.gearhead/files/phenotype/shared/
- From: com.google.android.projection.gearhead.pb
- To: com.google.android.projection.gearhead.pb.bak (Or smth similar, al long as the original "doesn't exist")
Then close Android Auto / reboot.
That file is at least what was required to make CoolWalk / TaskBar-Widgets work / appear on MicroG.

Thanks a million for this app/ Xposed module. All I needed was to make "unauthorized apps" to work, and until recently, the only way to do that was cumbersome phenotype.db edits with triggers (battery drain!) and wiping AA data.
Working perfectly for me, count me in for a follower/ tester/ anything I can do to help!
News/update, only for MicroG users:
aaxlu (v2.0.1) now comes pre-included with aa4mg (v0.6)
If you manually installed aaxlu before,
then please uninstall aaxlu, before you install aa4mg v0.6.

I think I must be missing something. I have root and the lsposed module installed etc. I have Screen2Auto installed but the app isn't visible in Android Auto. What are the steps to get third party apps to work? Thanks
Edit: more info. Have magisk, zygisk and lsposed module activated

S2A is by far the most restricted app.
I've posted all restrictions/by-passes which are within my knowledge in the S2A thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...r-root-devices.4062787/page-147#post-88392893
With those steps I've been able to get S2A showing up reliably.
Maybe I've missed something but what is the purpose of this app, other than to change the look of AA settings? What other 'hidden' features does it show, other than to be found in Developer settings? Thanks.
