Notification Light Android 11 - Samsung Galaxy A30 Questions & Answers

Before upgrading to Android 11 on my A30 the Notification Light App worked well and displayed a simulated LED on the screen even it was completely dark. With Android 11 this helpful app stopped working and I cannot find any update. Any idea?

Did you find the solution or an alternative?

for me many apps
like message,contacts,fb,chrome etc.
I'm having the same problem. My screen brightness autodims to zero randomly when I am using Google Chrome. I hope it can be fixed if it's a UI bug.

hello,
it seems that you need to disable any power saving settings
disable the power genius app if you have it
or use 3rd party app like lux lite
those are the solutions i found so far
if they would release an update soon, maybe they will fix this issue
good luck
Same problem here... Kinda retarded

It seems that I have found a solution.
I noticed that (im my case) the screen dims every time when the keyboard pops up, so I have uninstalled google and swift keyboard updates and installed a different keyboard.
No problems with brightness since I done that, so give it a try.
Also, the screen brightness was not reducing when it was on maximum (with auto brightness off ofcourse).

Change LED notification color

Hi all,
I want to have a LED notification with Gmail. So I tried Light Flow and LED Manager from store. But both are not working.
Did somebody try to change LED color?
I was able to turn on led notification for gmail with Light Manager Pro 12.1.7, but I'm unable to change color (it's already blue for gmail).

Did you try Light Flow? If not, would you mind to try if you can?
Someone replied to my thread on the same matter last week and said it was working fine as long as you use the basic colors given by the app.
I tried to install it on a device in a shop via apk, but the damn retail demo that I couldn't manage to uninstall/deactivate prevented me from locking the screen to allow a test run (it's a feature in the settings of light flow).
Btw I got an answer from the developers of both LightManager and LightFlow and they told me P20 Pro is not fully compatible with these apps, but I don't know what "not fully" means in terms of what we can and can't do.

Light flow didnt seem capable of setting the color correctly. For instance... the led color just kind of cycled a few colors when I set a particular notificationc olor to blue.
LightManager seems to work so far... but blue is very dim.
Both require a persistent notification. Will see how that affects battery.
Edit: Annoyingly enough, after seeing lightmanager works, I decided to pay the dev for the full version... which does not work. Somehow.

Thanks a lot for your feedback!
Damn... I was hoping to get at least a smooth run, working basic colors and no persistent notification.
I’ll give it a go again in another store by installing light manager before giving up and going with the S9+.
I paid for the full Light Flow version and it still isn't working for my P20 Pro. Guess we gotta wait for full compatibility

I gave up using Light Flow a few months ago but tried again today, out of curiosity, and it works! I recently updated the P20 Pro firmware to v8.1.0.156 (C432), don't know if it started working with this version or the one before.

Issues with some apps and the notch

Hey all,
I've had my Mi8 Global edition (currently running 10.0.3 global stable) for about a month now and I've noticed an issue on Facebook Messenger where the app loads weirdly (see 1st screenshot) and then after about a second or 2 it corrects itself. Is there any fix for this? I tried going into the screen settings and making Messenger not a full screen app but the option is locked. I also tried hiding the notch and this did nothing as well...
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Also, on my AOD (Always on Display) only certain apps notifications appear, is there a fix for this yet on the Global stable rom? AND is there a way to make app icon notifications appear on the status bar if you do not have the Chinese Version?
Thanks all!

Jesus, how I hate it!!! And Google knows nothing about this behavior...
Yeah so far it's only Facebook messenger that does it and I've realised it's when you get the "xxxx xxxx is now active" notifications that appear in the spot where the status bar is supposed to be. Has no one figured out how to fix it?

You could always lower the dpi of the screen to something below 480.
AOD is a common issue which is miui issue and I don't think there's a work around.
The icons situation won't be available until android pie of miui10 is released. You'll need to wait till end of 2018 or beginning of 2019.

General Miui Global 12.5.1 Stable ROM - Likes & Issues

Hi ya'll,
I'm coming from Miui 12.0.5 Global on a RN8PRO and I have to say this OS is a downgrade but the phone itself is an upgrade. If anyone knows how to fix this or if they get an update which changes this before I do, please let me know.
Issues they changed, which wiegh highly on how it functions:
Silent/DND: I can only setup one schedule which sucks cause I like to have my phone turn on at a different time on the weekends
Individual App Notification Sounds: I was able to go into App Info > Notifications > Sound and change what sound file it plays but apparently not all apps are capable of doing this and I checked to see if the app is the same version, and they are on the RN8PRO vs RN10PRO
Likes:
Smart devices on the pull down menu
Better auto brightness on the RN10PRO but might be due to the AMOLED vs the IPS screen
Integration of the Google Page if you swipe to the right of the home screeen
Fingerprint scanner on the power button vs the back on the RN8PRO
I'll continue to update as I use more and figured it out...
I've noticed that 12.5.3 is out... anyone receive it yet?

Hi! How is version 12.5.2 working? I've read many comments about bugs on 12.5.0~12.5.1, but I would like to know if you feel 12.5.2 is an improvement over those.

nothing improvement, gallery bug and some bugs, wroste update
Miui 12.5.4 arrived yesterday on my Redmi Note 10 Pro (global).
So far pretty good, but I've noticed a couple of bugs.
The wallpaper zooms in for some reason and there's no way to fix it. I ended creating a larger wallpaper with a blank border to avoid it. It may be related to brightness adjustments.
If you disable one of the SIM cards, it still show up in the status bar (before the update, it didn't).

this bugged update . music player notification problem . long delays in browsing through storage . messaging apps like telegram notifications not showing message notifications . mxplayer crashing while playing video . zip and rar files not extracting in file explorer(default one) . and much more problems . notifications are nice though .
After updating to 12.5.4 it just became worse the whole system as a whole... I unlocked the bootloader and went back to 12.0.15 which is much less laggy and works great for my needs.
Hello on 12.5.3, i can't change wallpaper on launcher and lock screen. I Can chose, but itis appears black. Someone have this problème ?

Question Missing "Dim Screen" feature of Android 12 in MIUI 13

Hi everyone,
Android 12 introduced a feature called "Dim Screen" which allows you to further reduce your brightness than lowest possible on brightness slider, but it is missing from MIUI 13.0.4.0 Global Update for RN10 plus. Is there a way to access this feature. I'm asking because apps like Night Screen or Night Owl, which I used to rely on before dont work on Android 12. You cannot interact with UI if any app is "displaying over other apps". I really need much lower brightness at night and its became a hassle.
Anyone knows the solution?
If you're rooted, you can use cf.Lumen on the A12 MIUI ROM. It doesn't seem to have any issues with displaying over other apps, and it's a great app, one of the best of this kind, because it doesn't just put an overlay on the screen, it directly affects color channels.
Without root, I think I remember Twilight causing no issues like that on A12.
I doubt the dimming feature is accessible in MIUI, given that MIUI handles brightness quite differently.
where can i find it the dim screen feature? edit:i didn't read carefuly

In ancient looks like this:
Same here. On the Xiaomi 12X the extra dim feature is not avaiable. Latest global 13.02
Download the apps called MIUI downloader from Playstore, there was a tab called hid. Features and you will find the extra dim feature there.
Just activate it and it will be shown in control center toggle also
