Ambient Display won't turn off - Google Pixel Questions & Answers

It just continually pulses so I'm afraid it's draining the battery and causing screen burnin. I even disabled the "moves" in settings. Any ideas?

I have the same problem.

(very expensive screen saver maybe? :lol

[Q] GSam battery

Hi
I am using GSam battery to monitor my battery.
What I notced that even if screen is off for 15minutes, GSam will show it was on for 9minutes
When I turn of screen for 10minutes it showed that screen was on for 6.
Anyone knows anything about this?
EDIT:
Facebook was causing screen to turn on itself for couple of seconds. It would sometimes happen even few times a minute.
Turned off refresh in facebook and since then screen is really off. I set up refresh interval to never. So I refresh it manualy.
I rarely use fb so its not a big deal. But too bad that such a big company makes such mistake.

can't adjust brightness level?

I got my Moto G3 yesterday and I noticed the screen was very bright, I checked the brightness level and it was on the middle of the slider, with Adaptive Display on. I tried adjusting the slider but nthing happens, I tried turning Adaptive Display off, still nothing happens. Doesn't matter if I'm in a room with no light or if I'm outside on the sun, the screen is always on what I assume is 100% brightness.
I have also tried a factory reset, updated to Android 6, downloaded a 3rd party app to adjust brightness, getting it on safe mode... nothing works
It is really annoying having the display at full brightness always, battery drains, phone screen gets really hot, etc
Someone have a possible solution? I don't want to stay more days without a phone by taking it to warranty.
Even I noticed that the screen's brightness is same from 1% to 30% (approx).. It doesn't change at all.
What variant do you guys have?

screen lights up randomly

whenever the phone is just resting on the table, it will randomly just up the lockscreen for a few seconds, then turn back off.
I do not use any auto brightness. anybody else experience this? It usually happens a few minutes after it's been used.
maybe notifications waking screen to remind you. maybe background app forcing screen wake. have you only noticed this after downloading an app . maybe try deleting recent apps and seing if it persists
i have not had this same issue but with same thing ......with auto brightness off..have you noticed while using it the screen dims. gets lighter? etc you can be on internet page and your screen goes much brighter? also sometimes goes dimmer?
i beleif it to be battery optimisation . or that turning off auto brightness doesnt really turn it off. or there is bug in software that does this.

It is quite possible that ambient display is the culprit. Look in display settings and see if it is enabled.
Hello, we understand your concerns about the display and its brightness. Here are some tips to correct your auto-brightness issue.
- Your phone will automatically adjust the screen brightness according to the ambient brightness. Clear the Automatic brightness check box to manually adjust the brightness.
- For sleep mode, the screen will lock automatically after a period of inactivity to reduce power consumption. Select Sleep to adjust the screen-off time or disable the automatic screen lock feature.
If the problem persists, try backing up your device and performing a "master reset". This should help correct any buggy issues you are having with your display. (NS)
You don't receive notification and it lights up randomly, right?!
Disable voice wake-up from Settings. The same thing happened on my P8.
So voice wake-up os begins this, I've never enabled it, I didn't thought about it

Still the problem exists. I mentioned already we have automatic brightness box unchecked and still the brightness changes.
If you're on MM try to rollback to LP

Try changing Power Plan to Performance if it is set on Smart.

A factory reset should solve the problem, if other solutions don't work
try enabling the power saving mode

AOD deactivates. How to keep it activated?

As i said. The AOD keeps deactivating itself. I have no pattern on why or when this happens.
Any ideas?
Hello. I have had this happen to me too. I think it is when your battery goes below 20% it is turned off automatically by the battery saver. Check Settings => Always-on display & Lock screen => Show items => Un-toggle "Turn off when Battery saver is on".
I hope this fixes your problem!
i dont turn on battery saver at 20%... but maybe it does it anyway... and after recharging it doesnt turn it back on again... i ve deactivated the setting. lets see what happens after next recharge.
That was it. It now doesnt turn off anymore.
Thnx
