Does anyone know a tasks app that can display notification on ambient/always on display? I tried a few apps but none of them worked.

There are two types of Calendar Notifications in Note 3.
[1] Alert - This will display full screen notification with Dismiss and Snooze options, just like the Clock Alarm. It will turn the display on to display the full screen notification. If your phone is on and you are in some other app, it will still overlap on the current app and display full screen notification.
[2] Status bar notification - This will not turn the display on. It will be just the status bar notification, just like the gmail notification. If your phone is on and you are in some other app, it will not interrupt the current app.
No matter what settings I choose, I always get the full screen alert. Even if I choose the Status bar notification, it always displays full screen alert. Is there any solution to this?

Anytime you have a calendar alert per event that says "Popup", it's going to do that.

I do not see any "pop-up" option on my Note 3. I sync my calendar with Google calendar and I have default notification set as pop-up in Google Calendar. Do you mean to say that setting on the web interface is causing it?

Yes, that alert for the event is what I was referring to. I disable that by default on mine and my phone doesn't have that popup.
I also sync my Gmail events to my Note 3 using the default calendar app.
If that doesn't work, try downloading the Google calendar, remove your gmail from the default calendar and see if it still does it?
Although it shows time, is there a way to show date as well? Or some other method/app?
Thanks!
Not natively. You could use Tasker to post a notification when the screen turns off with the date, then clear the notification when the screen turns back on.
The issue with this is that you would either only see it when there are no other notifications waiting (Active Display "features" the most recent notification up top, and lists others below), or you could set the priority on the date notification to the highest level, which would force it to always be the "featured" notification on Active Display. This would essentially defeat the point of Active Display though, because all other notifications would be forced into the lower portion and not accessible via AD.
Does anyone know if there is a rom that has tiles for quick screen timeout adjustment and notification (ring, vibrate, silent) toggle. I had these on chroma 5.x.x also had where I could long press the home button to activate more options for the flashlight or silence my phone. I used these all the time and chroma 6.x.x does not have either, I love chroma but really miss these features. Thanks.
Is there any way to get more apps other than just reminders to show up on the Always on display alerts in the security settings? I have all the other settings correct as I see the notifications when the screen is on, but when its locked and in the AOD mode, only reminders pop up and no other notifications.
Guys - on the top menu which has DND, Flashlight, etc is it possible to add anything from settings? I'd like to place the brightness setting in there (in particular if I can turn on/off ambient lighting with one click) that'll be great. Thanks
It's already there. You have to swipe down again to get the brightness settings, which presents a slider to brighten or dim the didplay, along with options to choose what shortcuts to turn things on/off that you see on the ribbon initially. I think brightness is one of them..
Maybe under device settings?
