Does the Find X2 Pro have an always on display or not? I've read various bits of information that contradict each other and can't find a definitive answer anywhere. Thanks. ?
I was wondering about that also, and the US price.
It appears that it may have AOD in this GSMArena video.

Thanks a lot, you're awesome. ?
Does it works also with third-party apps like whatsapp gmail etc ? or only with system apps like SMS calls etc ?
Thanks !
The AOD only supports system apps not WhatsApp or Gmail
Bump.
Just wanted to confirm this, no support for 3rd party apps with the always on display on the find x 2 pro?

Apologies, to clarify, mine is on the China ROM so that's probably why it doesn't support third party.
Mine turns off after 20 minutes or so even when charging, had to buy a bedside clock now lol
Mine too, it's called "always", what's always, switched off after 20 minutes? LOL...
And the Curved Panoramic Light Effect lights up twice. It's embarrassing. It sucks.
Why not always always and the notification light, let it be set as you like. Somehow the ColorOS is not thought through.

Totally agree, is frustrating to have always on display that does not stay on always.
They should fix that ASAP as I can't glance at the screen now to see notifications or clock and the edge light should stay on spefic notification like the Samsung led light.
Samsung and Huawei is way ahead for alway on display.
Hauwei even gives notification counter on always on display eg what's app then number of messages.

This is to prolong battery life & also help with screen longevity as there have been burn in cases with other devices, however maybe they should leave it up to the user to decide

I have the Always Display Information turned on. It would display when I get a message but no other apps like WhatsApp, Gmail etc. would have any indicators. I would need to turn the screen on to be able to see if I have any notifications from those apps or not. Does anyone know how I can turn it on for other apps as well?
On the subject of notifications, sometimes push notifications aren't coming through whilst the phone is sleeping (only when I turn the screen on). I have already made sure to turn off the battery management on my various messaging apps (Settings - Battery - App Launch) as well as locked them in Recent Apps. Doing these things improved it but it's still not consistent. Does anyone have a solution to this? Thanks!

Probably because it's not a solution for AOD. It's a solution that shows you your notifications when you pick up your phone and the screen turns on

Why don't you actually read my question, and then compare it with what they are talking about in that thread? Maybe then you will get it. Just saying...
Anyway, after searching everywhere, the answer seems to be that only stock apps get notifications on the AOD. There doesn't seem to be any way for other app's notifications to be displayed yet. FYI gd6noob, no one in that thread talked about this.
I really miss Samsung for only this reason: 3rd party apps on Always On Display.
I hope Huawei somehow, in the future brings this to our devices.
Is it possible in Emui 9? Thanks

Glance Plus is the only app which I found does something similar, but it doesn't work as well as the Always on Display in Samsung phones. If anyone knows of other apps, any recommendation is welcome.

I tested it with WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Threema and BlueMail. It works flawlessly, though I would appreciate an update to customize the duration of the light, other colors and that it will be pulsating, etc.
Maybe a restart is going to fix your problem? Or try to turn off ambient display completely - restart - turn it on again. I read that others cleared data and cache of the app ambient display, that could work as well.

Thanks bro, will give all those a try.
Strange but I dont see ambient display app even in system apps I cant find it.
Got it, still didnt help... guess factory reset is next.
Works for me also, too bad is only once. I hope a software update can add more options.
I would like the screen to blink every few seconds when I have notifications, maybe also different colors per app.
I was on chat with OP support because I have yet to see the horizon light turn on. I have tested notifications for various apps in a pitch black room with ambient display on, off, changing notification slider to all 3 positions, restarting the phone, hard resetting the phone (all the suggestions from OP support) and nothing fixed it. OP support asked me to film the issue and send to them so they could "isolate the root cause of the issue". FYI I am on OOS 9.5.3 in case that is a different. I feel like mine is defective since I have yet to see any sort of edge light up.

I have the Chinese version of the phone.
I am wondering, does this phone have any kind of mail, message or notification light when the screen is off?
If someone sends me a Line, Messenger or Gmail message, is there any kind of blinking light, edge lighting or glowing ring around the punch hole?
I am looking in the options and all I can find is an edge lighting option for phone calls.
But if someone calls me, and I miss the call, when the screen is off there is no blinking light or anything. Help.
There is no notification LED/Light.
I'm using True Edge which works to a point, seems to work great and then just stop - even with all the battery optimisation settings set correctly etc. But I think this is your best choice.
Thanks for the answer about no notification light.
Also thanks for the app recommendation.
Does anyone know of a good app that will put a notification ring around the punch hold camera with the screen on or off?
Please share. Thanks.

I have found that the developer of True Edge also do the same, but with an AOD which also appears to work. Its called AMOLED, and actually includes the same options as True Edge
Hi, i am using the Chinese version of the Find X2 pro and I just can't seem to get the it to work for notifications.
It works just fine when I get calls, but it doesn't do anything when I receive messages from like WhatsApp or WeChat etc.
I have the "light effects for lock screen" option turned on but it still doesn't work Does anyone here know a fix?

Same here. Never noticed this working on mine either now you mention it. China spec in UK also.
Doesn't work with global rom in UK either! I use True Edge from google play store, but even that is hit and miss (and it's not brilliant on the battery). Not sure why a company who doesn't include a notification LED doesn't do more for other methods of notifying.

Bizarre (seems to be the buzz word for this phone). I got mine from Netherlands, and running EU rom, but they don't work for me.
Anyone got these Lock Screen Notifications working?
I've got the settings and it works lighting up, but only once, then it just stops which sort of defeats the object ?

It's only lighting up once or twice. Don't expect more. It's ok like that. If you want more then install from playstore. There a couple of apps which has similar settings for incoming messages calls, etc.

Can I ask you which update you have now , mine received update once only and may security until now
Yeah same issue here. Always On display is the only workaround I can think of.
With no LED they need a way to let you know of missed calls and text messages..
Can anyone recommend an alternative app?

I've tried:
True Edge
Always on Edge
Always on AMOLED
Notify Edge
All are *huge* battery suckers
Currently using Notify Buddy by Xander Apps. Seems to be the best for battery useage and lights up a circle (which is an absolute PITA to position). I have it perpendicular to the camera punch on right of screen. Works for *most* apps but not all.
Don't agree with the comment about notification only lighting once or twice is useful. We have notification sounds for that!

I think this is more if you are away from your phone or it's on silent. You want to be able to glance at your phone and know if there is something important pending. (like a missed call). At this point in time without Always on Display there is no way to do this.
Thanks for the app recommendation
I did try NotifyBuddy though didnt work for me.. No LED coming up.
i think always on display is the best option. at least it's a factory app designed to be run all the time.
For anyone not sure it's called "Screen off Clock" in the Oppo settings.

Took an age for me to "find" the LED on screen. Had to manually position and then use the overly-sensitive pseudo mouse to eventually find it. Move it a millimetre and it's gone again!
Similar issue on my UK purchased device, just over a month now, one update since purchase - CPH2025CPW_11_A.24 (still on June security patch!!)
Initially screen light effect for lock screen notifications worked but in the last few days has stopped lighting up for messages. Works fine for incoming calls though...
Is there some sort of feature that replaces the notification light which the ultra 20 lacks. They have this weird flash and edge light feature that only seems to work when the message comes in but if you miss the notification it is useless because it doesn't periodically blink. They have a reminder feature that you can only set to go off every 3 minutes (or longer duration); but it seems to be audio only.
If they were going to remove the notification led i would think they had a replacement feature ?

AOD is intended to replace LED notification. I'm on my second Frontier watch, which is how I monitor notifications. I don't try to type with it, but I use it to decide if a notification is worth digging out the phone or not. I also use it for Samsung Pay daily.
Fone settings......... accessibility.......... advanced features.......notificationsns......... turn on screen/camera flash flash.
While you are in the accessiblity notifications, turn on notification reminder, set how often you want it.
This is far better than the little led, will definitely get your attention.
AODnotify is what most of us use to replace the LED. Search for it here on XDA.

Can we set the flashlight only for phone calls, instead of for all notifications? I get many notifications, i don't want to waste my battery for each n every notification.
I dont know of any set up for which app gets the flash specifically. But I would set up those apps for silent notification that you dont want any sound, vibrate or flash.
I use LED Me Know and it's awesome.
