Moto Display and do not disturb (or silent notifications) - X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
first of all, sorry for my english.
I have a problem with my fantastic mxp. When I am in do not disturb mode or silent notifications, and a notification is pushed, vibration and sound are off, but moto display switches on my screen. Why?
Thanks in advance

because moto display is not part of android's 'do not disturb' mode?

Maybe but is annoying...
I will try with xposed ambient display.

Just in case you didn't know: You can disable this in the Moto app.

But it disables entire moto display, no? Not only for silent notifications. Maybe I dont have updated moto app.

Yeah, that's true. If you disable it there, it's completely off.

if you face down your phone, moto display dont show up.. same if you just block light sensor..

And can I do this with an app, via java code?

I developed this app...
Thx!

disable auto screen wake - possible?

Whenever I touch/move my moto X play the screen awakes, is it possible to disable this so screen will always stay off until I push the power button? Tried looking in the screen settings, but can't find anything there.
I have another phone also with android 5.1.1 and the display is off until I push the power button - so this must be some motorola feature?
I want to disable it to save power, as screen flickering on and off all the time can't be a good thing.
There is an app called Moto and in there is display settings. I think you need to change the notification setting in there.

As above, you can change it in the moto app under display or in settings->display -> screen notifications -> none
Thanks! I thought that setting was only for getting the notification icons on the display!
FWIW Under same settings there is one called "Ambient Display" - it's sort of half way between the "Moto Display" and none in that if you hit the power button it shows current notifications + plus lights up when new notifications come in but does not turn on when touched (as in Moto Display). I use the Ambient Display to offset the lack of a LED for notifications. I'll probably flash the kernel to enable the LED'S at some point but in the mean time I'm happy with it.

Hi, where exactly is that ambient display setting? I don't see it in the moto app nor in my display settings under display. I'm on a moto z play unlocked. Not sure if that matters.

You won't see ambient display settings if you have Moto display. Once you disable Moto display I believe the ambient display settings will be automatically enabled
install glance plus.best ambient display like app ever.

Just disabled Moto display and ambient display is not enabled under settings, display. Or I'm looking on the wrong place?
Edit: Never mind, Moto display must be disabled under app. Not just turned off in Moto app.
Edit2: But ambient display does not turn display on for notification.
So the phone must use motion sensors, right? That must be why they have one called Force. You can use Jedi hand waving on it.
I'm worried that turning off Moto display isn't enough. The motion sensors may be running all the time and are surely a drain on battery. Is there any way to turn motion sensing off altogether?

Attentive display feedback notification?

I have attentive display turned on, but it keeps popping up a notification asking me for feedback.
Does anyone know how to turn that intrusive notification off?

If you go into Apps -> Moto Actions, you can turn on "Block All" for that app. Unfortunately you won't get that tap to disable flashlight notification either.

Mate 8 Ambient display

Is there a way to enable Ambient display on the mate 8 or something similar so when I receive a notification, the screen will light up itself?
Also the notification light led is very dim, hardly noticeable compared to samsung devices.
On the dimness issue, have you tried turning off the auto brightness feature in your shortcuts pulldown?
Think for yourself. Question authority.

I use ZUI Locker to get lock screen notifications. Echo is also good. The screen lights up on notification and the duration can be specified.
settings --> screen lock & passwords --> notification turn on screen

correct, I discovered it but weird that it only works with certain lock screen themes and not with all, you must select the theme with (magazine)
FYI I installed xposed with both gravitybox and the ambient display module. Neither works.

On a custom OS (like lineage or Pure Nexus) can you...

No, CM/AOSP uses ambient display for this. Behaves a bit differently but it's more than good enough, especially with a working notification light.

Ambient Display?

Anyway to replace AOD with Androids Ambient Display?
AOD is nice, but I'd rather have Ambient displays. Ambient Displays temporary feature which just shows notifications briefly is what I'd prefer instead of just an icon and a big ass click always there.
There used to be Xposed modules but those are pretty much gone nowadays.
Download NILS.

I believe NILS is for lockscreen notifications only, it won't replace AOD screen.
Ambient display turns on the screen when you receive a notification. This is exactly what NILS does if you set it that way and turn off it's notification service, so it'll turn on the screen when you receive notifications and show the standard notifications from the phone you're using.
