Hi, guys!
I've been using LG phones for years and have just recently switched to Xiaomi Mi 9. While it's a great phone, a few things are bugging me. Can you help?
- How do I enable permanent notifications at the top of the screen next to the clock?
- How do I enable notifications on the AOD?
- The AOD is too bright. How do I adjust this?
- How do I enable double-tap to sleep from the lockscreen?
Please note I have no root and prefer not to root the phone.
Thank you!

I might be moving from a Xiaomi phone to a Huawei one soon. The following I found most annoying things in MIUI(latest version) so I want to know how many of these things I am going to experience in EMUI too.
1. Lockscreen notifications disappear after unlocking the phone even if the notifications have not been cleared. Notifications that you receive while screen on will never make it to the lockscreen.
2. Google Smart Lock does not work and Xiaomi does not provide any alternative of their own.
3. The camera app does not have an option to review picture immediately after taking it.
4. Auto brightness is not adjustable and is simply a one size fits all option.
5. The DND mode cannot ONLY silent notifications. Notification and ringtone volume cannot be unlinked either so there is no easy way to silence all notifications.
Furthermore as I understand both of these skins have very aggressive battery management. MIUI does allow me to whitelist apps to exclude from that. Does Huawei offer this option too?
Lastly I read somewhere that you can't reply on a lock screen notification in EMUI? Is that still the case with the latest version?

Hi there,
I just bought a Mi 9t Pro- and generally I am happy with it. But coming from a Pocophone I really miss the notification LED; and the screen coming on when I got a notification.
The Ambient Display just isn't great, it's too bright and doesn't display notification info reliably - and I don't want an always on screen.
For me I'd like Ambient Display to show ONLY when I have notifications but leave the screen dark when there is none - is there a way to achieve this? Would even buy a 3rd party app.
Thanks in advance
Of the five phones I've owned recently with rear fingerprint sensors (Honor 7X, Honor 8X, Samsung S9, Google Pixel 3a, Redmi Note 7), the only one which doesn't natively support fingerprint gestures is the Redmi Note 7.
Therefore, I can't swipe down or up on the fingerprint sensor on the Redmi Note 7 to expand or collapse the notification shade the way I can on the other phones. This is a major annoyance for me since I use the notification shade often when I'm using a phone one-handed, and the rear fingerprint sensor is so convenient for this purpose.
So I tried about a dozen different apps on the Play Store until I found one that did exactly what I wanted, and it's free. It's called Keyboard/Button Mapper.

It's not so easy to figure out at first, so I can post instructions if anyone needs help. In summary, however, you would create two new keymaps with the following mappings:
Trigger: <swipe down>
Action: Expand Notification Drawer
Trigger: <swipe up>
Action: Collapse Status Bar
With this one fix, the Redmi Note 7 can be just as convenient to use one-handed as any other modern phone. Enjoy.
does not even recognize my fingerprint sensor when applying for the trigger action

Hi Alifirdaus. I'm sorry to hear that it's not working for you. Please list the steps you took so that I might help you. Thanks.
I have enabled all app requests (fixes) including root permission but the app does not recognize the fingerprint actions.
Mine doesnt work either... i just updated to MIUI 12... I'm not rooted. does this require root? thanks!
Gosh I've been looking for an app like this for so looooooong !! Thanks !! Working on my pocophone x3 Surya running arrow os android 11
Unfortunately I'm getting this on my Poco X3 NFC with custom rom. Any other solutions? Xposed edge pro doesn't recognize the fingerprint sensor.
Hey all, just picked up a mi 11 ultra, coming from a OnePlus 7pro. I have plus beat on my 7pro to show me on screen notifications from sms, email etc... Trying to find something that works on the Mi11 ultra, so far I've tried plus beat and AOE but I can't seem to get either to work. AOE will do a notification one time, but won't repeat after 5-20 seconds after the initial notification.... Anyone else attempting this, or have found a solution to have screen notification reminders?
I'm using Glimpse Notifications:

Very good app, many configuration options available, no battery drain.
Anyway, Plus Beat for Oneplus 7Pro is unbeatable, Xiaomi is missing the Ambient Display...
Perfect, thanks I'll give that a shot!
Thanks that works, not nearly as nice as plus but will do the trick, hopefully the pocket detection works...
I don't get why this isnt implemented into phones as an option... Repeat notifications
Hi to all,
as a new owner of OnePlus 10 Pro, I've an issue when using AOD during the night because brightness is very high and it is not possible to adapt it...
Is there any fix for this? I've tried to used severa other AOD app for that but there are other problem such as the footprint to unlock the device, so I'd prefer to use the native app.
Thanks in advance,
Alex
