Hi guys
As soon as the phone detects the face, it brings the home screen(desktop)
Is there a setting to keep the clock and screen lock on even if the face is recognised? (Then you can manually swipe up to go the home screen).
The only way to do this is to hide all notifications and enable the content when the face is detected.
What I'd like to have is, seeing all notifications on the lock screen (with the content) being able to unlock the phone but still not land to the home screen (Staying at the screen lock)

yeah but in this case the notifications on the lock screen only appears when the face is recognised. I'd like to have them on the lock screen regardless.
Is that possible?

Why don't you just double tap/swipe the screen to turn on and see the notifications and then unlock using your face.

Yeah but the moment you look at the phone, it unlocks. Without even being able to see what notifications were on the lock screen.

Just tilt the screen to an angle where the device doesn't detect your face, that's how I do it anyway which I am fine with.

Under face recognition in security, is it not 'show notifications, swipe up to go to home screen' click to enable or disable that...

I enable ambient display feature on my nexus 6 as it doesn't have an awesome pulse light like nexus 5.
However if I enable this feature it includes both wake screen when pick up and notification comes. But I suffered the problem of wake screen when the phone is in my pocket.
When the phone is waking even the scree is locked, you can still touch the notification bar and do the settings. I suffered many times when the phone is in my pocket, but the flash light is on or put the phone in airplane mode. It's very annoying.
Can someone tell me how to disable notifications bar when the phone is locked or disable wake screen when pick up feature but not wake screen when notification comes.
Thanks.

If you put security on your lockscreen, you can't touch anything from ambient display without putting in your pattern, pin, or password.
I think there are some other apps that have similar functionality, that have more options. AcDsiplay, DynamicNotifications, and NoLED among many others. I am not saying these are good, as I haven't used them. Just saying there are some other apps that can probably give you more options if that is what you are looking for.
Otherwise, if you are a custom ROM person, I wouldn't be surprised if someone makes more settings for Ambient Display eventually.

Thanks, I will try those apps and see how is going.
Also, could I ask how to put security on lock screen? Thanks.

I did set it and use pattern as screen lock but I can still touch the notification bar.
Do I need to select password or pin?
So I'm trying to use alternative lock screens like Picturesque and Next Lock Screen on my Nexus 6 running Chroma ROM.
This doesn't seem to be ROM specific.
I have a PIN, and I use Smart Lock with a pebble and locations for work and home.
On both lock screen apps, when I swipe to unlock I am presented with another lock screen, the stock lock screen, so I have to swipe a second time.
So Next lock screen - I swipe down to unlock, then I'm presented with another lock screen with notifications on it, where I have to swipe up to unlock (stock lock screen).
This is likely user error, but I can't figure it out how to only use 1 lock screen. Thanks for the help!
In android settings > security don't you just need to set the lock screen to none?

I guess without doing that only the 3rd party lock screen will be visible. Tried with go locker. Never had this duplicate luck screen issue. Though I used to have such issues with my galaxy s3 sometimes with a specific lock screen app.

That would work, but then I would lose all security on my phone (no pin unlock as a result of setting no lock screen).
This happened on other ROM's so I don't think it's specific to Chroma, but nobody else seems to be having this issue..?

Maybe you need a custom rom. Some have the option to turn swipe off when a PIN / Pattern is applied. At least on KK they did.
IMHO< The stock lock screen is too good to pass up so maybe not many people have tried. Or maybe some lockscreen apps seek to use root to turn off stock swipe (again they used to try)
I guess I'm going to hope this issue is fixed with 5.1.
If I have the phone on my desk where it can't scan my face and unlock, is there any way to reach over to view and dismiss notifications? Currently if I double tap the screen it just goes straight to trying to scan my face, but it only shows a notification icon and no contents. I can pull down the notification shade and check it that way, but that's an extra couple of steps. Am I just out of luck if I want to use face unlock?

I'm seeing the same thing. Haven't found a way around it. There's a setting in face id that you can check that asks you to confirm unlock when it scans your face, but, it isn't working apparently. This is definitely one of my gripes so far.
i think i have a fix for you guys if its sitting more or less flat and you wave/hold your hand over the top it will activate the screen with out it scanning your face its part of the motion sense options i believe

It will activate the screen, but it'll only show the notification icon, not the contents.

Try swiping down on the screen. Notification should appear at the top & you can view or dismiss.

Yes, I already mentioned that in the OP. I'd prefer to skip that extra step.
I have just switched from a OnePlus 7 Pro and I am confused by this too.
Is it not possible to view notification content directly on the screen without pulling down the shade every time?
Disabling 'Skip screen lock' makes the phone behave like other androids without face lock. You can read and interact with your notifications. But it's an extra step to unlock the phone.

Good catch! I'm going to do this for a while and see whether I prefer this and having to swipe up, or just let it unlock.

Yeah, I tried it and realized I like the skip lock screen feature more. I think it's a bug and have raised it to Google via the feedback option. Hopefully they fix it.

This is definitely the better way IMO. It'll probably save battery, and I don't have to be on the home screen every time. I do already miss the one step unlock though. My 3xl, I would just grab it and hit the fingerprint scanner at the same time. This one I have to swipe now. Oh well, not sure there is any other way.
Hello,
When my screen is locked and I am trying to unlock it, my phone shows an open lock (seems to recognize my face).
I then can swipe up to see my homescreen but there I can't do anything.
I have to press the lock icon again to unlock my phone using my fingerprint
Please see the video to better know what I mean, thanks!

Try changing your default launcher.
I'm trying to enable 'tap to check' option to show aod when tapping once from screen off. But instead of going to aod (black screen with time and notification icons), phone goes directly to lock screen.
Is this a bug? If not, is the preview from settings wrong?
I have the same problem on p7pro and I can't figure out if it's a bug or normal behavior: I did read a lot of XDA and reddit topic but it's not clear.
Do you still have the issue ?
Mine doesn't work with tap but if I lift or just move it gently, that will show the AOD... but lift it too hard and it goes to lock screen.

I just noticed it last night. If I just lift it a little on it's side, it's AOD (or ambient display ?) coming up, and if I lift it completely it's the lock screen plus looking at my face to unlock.
But I would like to have only the AOD when I tap it with a finger, because most on the time it unlocks when I tap, because it sees my face ^^
Edit: and the AOD do not come every time I slightly move it. Like when it's just locked, it doesn't come ...
When I tap mine it goes to the lockscreen, but any notifications are shown also. I have face and fingerprint unlock disabled. When I had them enabled I would never see notifications unless I unlocked the screen first.

Yes still having it and I can't find a way to make this work as it should. Let's wait for Monday's feature drop to check if it'll get things fixed.
Yes, same here.
For me lifting goes to lockscreen, I cannot achieve the situation that slight lift causes AOD to show. The same with tapping - it goes straight to lockscreen (though description and preview suggests that it should show AOD instead of lockscreen). Whenever I receive a notification, AOD shows and it's OK. Basically what I don't like is that tapping should show AOD and is showing lockscreen instead (the best option for me would be to have single tap to show AOD, double tap to show lockscreen and while on AOD, double tap to show lockscreen).

Exactly.
for the AoD to show, you can try to slightly shake it, or lift only one side when it's on a table.

I am using the QPR2 beta. It still goes to the lock screen when tapping but it does seem to more reliably go to the AOD when I pick up the phone and only goes to the lock screen if I'm more aggressive with it. I'm actually fine with it now.

It was like that before for me. But still, it would be great to have the ability to choose. Especially when you have face unlock enabled and don't want the phone to unlocks when you check for notifications ...
