I am sorry but why would you need to do that on Phoenix ROM when the ROM itself includes Always on by default ?

Does it work on Nougat 7.1.1(Oxygen 4.7.6]also or not?
I’m really missing the much better quality and customizable AOD on Samsung device.
Current implementation with ambient display from OnePlus is totally crap.
No proximity sensor any more no interaction with notifications on screen.
Very very poor version from OnePlus.

Ok, as you mentioned "Tested on Phoenix Rom based on 8.1.0" it was kind of confusing.

Doesn't work for me. Op5t beta 2. "There was a problem parsing this package".

I use Glance Plus wit the optional paid Always On feature. Works great. Only thing is it doesn't honor the Quiet times I set, used to work in 4.7.6, but does honor the Silent switch, but unless something triggers it to awake/sleep again, it won't go to sleep still automatically at night when I don't want it to work.
Also have tried Always On from the play store, it works good as well. Just not a fan of the sizing/font options on the free version, but it works well also.
Be nice if OnePlus can replicate the Samsung version...that thing is nice.

Unfortunately those app consume more battery than stock implementation from OEM.
I’ve tried in the recent past and battery drain was 3-4% per hour.
Considering that AOD at Samsung only loose 1% per hour that’s a significant increase in battery drain with third party app.

Good lord, instead of all the mumbo jumbo just install Omni ROM. Has AOD built-in and works perfectly. No muss no fuss

Samsung's version also does some hardware tricks like dropping the refresh rate and pixel clock and number of colors. The display hardware literally has a special mode to reduce power use that isn't supported by most hardware, or.if it is, it's not implemented by Android

Has anybody gotten this to work?

It wouldn't work for me at first, but I got it working now. All you need to do is make sure ambient display is already turned on before you build/enable the Substratum overlay. Then follow the instructions in the OP.

However it seems buggy and doesn't seem to work properly. At least on RR Oreo.

you can try this for flashing dot...( don't expect it will serve the purpose of an actual LED notification not sure why google got rid of it... meh )

paid version - if you think the free version gives you the comfort then... mostly you can add more apps to be included in notification

I don't get this as well! Thx for the hint. Will have a look.

It works alright, but coming out of the notification screen can be a bit glitchy. Also, after a few seconds the screen dims and the notification light can be a little hard to see.

Also I find the payed version quite expensive - but overall it seems to be what I was looking for.

Apps like these keep your phone awake and drain the battery. Just use the Pixel Pulse app in the mods and themes sub forum.

If you use AOD it is awake. This app is using that. If you turned AOD then yes, battery. I am most disappointed by glitches when I try to open the phone.

I'm not sure if we're talking about the same thing. The AOD function is not the same as what most 3rd party apps use to keep the phone awake.

Pixel pulse, is the way to go, and the customized colors makes it even better at 2 AM work email notifications, so i know wtf i need to fix in the morning hahahaha

Old OnePlus 6 black and the new OnePlus 7 Pro white

In settings
OnePlus 6 black background
OnePlus 7 Pro white background
Can you tell me how to make the settings screen black with the OnePlus 7 Pro ?

Found it never mind

If you're talking about the theme, it's in the settings under display.

Apparently the latest version of the software will try to force a dark theme on other apps also, like Instagram, etc.

Apparently I must have missed the memo, my Instagram is still white background, lol

me too, lol. but he might mean in the Android Q beta. I believe since Q is going to have dark theme now, one of the features is that it also tries to force certain apps into dark theme as well.

[App] Edge Lighting fix for all Apps (ACTUAL Edge Lighting)

Get actual Samsung Edge Lighting Notifications with any app while your screen is off!​
Since we all know Samsung only did half the job with this feature, this app will enable you to trigger Edge Lighting (the real one !) when your screen is off. It works with any app by reading the app notification creating a new temporary notification that triggers edge lighting (you won't notice it in your notification list).
You can set custom color filters for your apps, based on their names.
Features:
Real Samsung Edge Lighting
Extremely minimal battery drain
No fake AOD Screen
Works with ANY app (including Messenger!)
Initial setup is a bit tedious, but that's mostly Samsung's fault.
Any suggestion to improve the app is -of course- welcome!
Download link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.zunder.edgelightingfixforallappsv2

Patch notes:
Users using a version priori to 1.2 need to install a new version of the app from the market (link updated in the first post)!
v1.24
Fixed an issue that caused the app to crash for some users.
v1.23
Added a custom icon feature for each app (Premium feature)
v1.22
Added a switch to enable/disable display of system apps in the list
v1.21
Fixed a switch display bug when using the search feature.
v1.2
Just to explain: I had to create a new app on Play store because, for whatever reason, the Play Console won't let me update the old one.
- New super sexy interface
- Filter search
- In-app support purchase to remove ads
v1.07
Added support for Do not Disturb mode. You can still bypass it in the notification parameters on my app, but there is no way so far I can make it work on a per application basis.
v1.06
Taping an app icon now now copies its name to the clipboard for faster filters setup.
v1.05
Added a detailed help screen
v1.04
Finally added an icon for the app
v1.03
Fixed the issue about the switches resetting when you scroll

Seems great, but the link doesn't work for me.

When you choose your edge notification style, you should be able to pick a color. Set it as custom and add filters from notification titles (which are the source apps names the way they are displayed in my app)

Thanks guys for reporting this issue, I'll add some kind of help in the next release and the PlayStore app description tomorrow (3am there, I'm just barely stayin awake cause I wanna see what you guys have to say about my app).

Hello, thanks for the application, now I want to try ... will the notification light remain on until I open it? Can you add an on and off time? similar to a led notification? Thank you

Works good so far, however, there is no app icon on the notification (generic android icon on gmail), also there is a ": nul" append at the end of text.

For now, no I just implemented a basic Samsung Edge Lighting notification, so you got what they designed.
I will see how I can make the notfication repeat at a fixed interval set by the user. I'm just afraid it will be extremely battery hungry.

With my app, notifications shouldn't wake your screen up but give you an edge light.
When you get in the menu for custom color, you have to allow my app ("Edge Lighting for all Apps") to send Edge Lighting notifications.
Edit: do you understand that Edge Lighting will prevent notifications from turning the screen on but instead display some kind of edge light while keeping your screen off?

[APP][6.0+] Always On Screen - AOD app for all android devices

Hello everyone,
Once again, I'm presenting to you an all-new Always On Display app for all android devices running Android 6.0 and up. This app is the remake of my old App which was only for Samsung. Now it works on any android device. If you don't know what actually Always On Display is, It is a feature that shows important information such as Time, Date, Battery, Notifications, etc on your screen when it is not being used. This feature works best with devices that have an AMOLED screen, as the pixel goes off so the power consumption is very less.
This app has many improvements from its older version such as more battery efficiency, better performance, new features, and many more.
Key features are:
Android 6.0+ Supported
Screen oritentation option
Paged clock with new watchfaces
Edge clock with music controls
Rearrangable Widgets (Music controls, Weather, Next Alarm, Today's schedule)
Multiple Display modes such as wave to show and Lift to show etc
Screen timeout to save battery
Whole new color palette with custom color support and gradient support
Many new Wallpapers
New Font option added.
Battery optimization tweaks
Multistyle colored notifications with unread count.
Enhanced Burn-in protection, Movement of clock and home key both
Memo text
and much more
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Spoiler: Upcoming Features
New Signature clock
GIF support for Image clock
Detailed notification view
Remaining are kept as a surprise

Have you set a lockscreen in settings?
It can be a bug. I'm not sure. But first confirm you have already set a lockscreen and instant lock with power button is on.

A beta update with a fingerprint option is available on the play store. Install it and let me know whether it is working properly or not.

This issue has been resolved in the latest beta version 1.3.7. Update the app from the play store.

Dear dev, this is the best AOD app i've tried (and i have tried maaaaany app).. I'll test for battery drain (Samsung a20e), but for now, well done!

A whole new look with new clock faces is coming soon...

Great APP, can you add more timeout options ? the best will be custom timeout

I've been trying out a few different aod apps, but for whatever reason this one won't work at all. I'm using One Plus nord n10 5g phone, I disabled battery optimization, have everything set up, but when I turn off the screen there is nothing . All black. Any thoughts? Thanks.
