Hidden Ambient Display - Nokia 8 Questions & Answers

I was debloating some unnecessary apps from the phone when after removing "Glance" this (personally desired) option showed up instead:
Ambient display
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It seems inactive and does not turn the screen on for notifications (tested just for SMS), but reporting it back here is what we do!

This is interesting. I've always wanted this feature and was annoyed 'lesser' devices got it. Have you had any luck getting it activated?

That was something which I found I liked that much just when it was gone!
I'm not a developer or code analyst by no means. It was a report back to hope someone finds it useful.

Absurd "com.android.gms" wakeups...

As you can see in the picture the android gms is the service that is mostly waking up the phone from sleep. Others are normal.
I've disabled sync, position and I don't know what to do to improve the situation. Damn it sucks a lot of juice! Please guys, monitorate your situation too with bbs (betterbatterystats) and post here the screenshot, and obviously, if you have some tips, tell us here, maybe we can improve battery life!

That's Google Play Services, I guess that you can try to see what intents there are inside that process and disable some "unneeded" of them, for example location service, network location etc without side effects

Another notification icon question

I have had my phone since Sunday, but haven't had much time to really mess with it because of a busy work schedule. I did unlock the bootloader and root, but I have no idea where this icon came from or what it is in reference to. When I swipe the notification bar down, there is nothing there that references it. It has been present for a couple of days, but everything seems to be functioning correctly. Can anyone help me identify the icon and why it's there please? It's the one to the far left in the image below. Thanks.

You are in do not disturb mode, or no interruption mode or whatever it is called. Priority is a star, and all is nothing.

Getting a Mute/Vibrate/Sound toggle in notifications?

I just got a Nexus 6 and have it running Beanstown Pure Nexus Rom.
I noticed that it seemed Lolipop removed the toggle for vibrate/mute/sound as one of the notification shortcuts. I've heavily relied on this since Gingerbread days. Is there anyway to get it back? I saw a Xposed thing for adding a "true" silent mode but it had to be activated by scrolling the volume buttons down to vibrate.
Is there a fix to this?
FYI this is the style of toggle I'm talking about.

[SOLVED] Keeps asking "Google needs to use device contacts" with moto voice

While driving it's nice to be able to use hands free to send a text but everytime I try to use it, ie "Ok hotword" send text to so and so I keep getting the "To improve....." screen.(see image) If I opt in it will last maybe a day and I'm right back at it. Any way to make this permanent?

MTA: Seems that a setting for device information must be enabled in order to keep from getting this screen all the time. Simply go into "Google settings->Search & Now->Accounts and Privacy->Google Activity Controls"... Such a headache... but fixed.

Question SM-G998U Missing One UI 5 Features

Is anyone missing advertised features/functions of One UI 5 after receiving the update? I'm on Verizon and can't access the RegiStar Good Lock module. It's not region locked because I have it on my Tab S7. I also had second screen under connected devices. As soon as I clicked on it, it disappeared.
It's there, in the "life up" tab. If you can't find it. Just Google RegiStar apk
