Hi guys, I noticed that Galaxy S6 doesn't have DOZE (lollipop's ambient display) feature.
I searched on google but the only ambient display feature is for AOSP ROMs with Xposed only (module not working on TouchWiz).
So I was wondering if someone will be able to make this feature for TouchWiz too (Xposed or not).
Thanks in advance
I have noticed once or twice if i get a notification from someone on my edge contacts it acts like a ambient display when i picked it up. Dont know if the screen was still on from it coming in or it turned on when i picked it up. But it definately reminded me of my nexus 6 ambient display with the clock lit at a low light state and the notification on the screen
So thats a good sign of it being possible

Lollipop's Ambient Display is not present in Touchwiz. You can download an app from the Play Store called Active Notifications (and one other app by a similar name with similar function) that basically does that exact same thing - and it should work without root.
(Also, side note "Doze" (not DOZE, an acronym) is not part of Lollipop, nor is it related to the Ambient Display feature. Doze is a new feature in Marshmallow that puts the phone into a high power saving mode when it's not being used.)
Would you mind helping me to add ambient display to the stock rom, just like it's in the custom roms?
I konw that there is an ambient display in the stock rom, but less customized than the custom one.
I stoped the stock feature and installed ambient display from xposed modules and and restart the device but noting happens.

If the device has a custom rom , I can turn the screen on by waving on sensor area or moving the device when the ambient display function is activated. But on the stock rom I need to move the device to see the ambient display. Which means that the behavior of ambient display on the custom rom is better( in my opinion) than on the stock rom.

You could try using the wave for moto display, on stock rom...I guess....There is an app for that...
Search for MotoDisplay Handwave on Play Store.
Hey, Guys
I accidentally stumbled upon Blue light filter feature hidden on my A5 2016 Nougat Stock ROM.
Here is how to access it.
Install Nova Launcher (I used only this)
Add Widget , Choose Nova.. Then Choose "Activities". Scroll Down to find "Settings". Under Settings, you can find Blue Light filter. Select it.
It can now be accessed through the Nova widget.
Blue light filter didn't work for me. Guys, you try and let me know. I think all the A (6) series Nougat ROM have this hidden feature.
Screenshot Attached
I already notice this since MM, read my post
https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series/general/launch-activity-setting-t3621078
But not found a way to upload screenshoot.

If you mean "enable", No. It doesn't enable it on the notification panel.
The method would just dig it up and unhide the feature. It gives you the access to the feature which is not available in a normal setting.
Just try it and let me know if the blue light is really getting filtered out or it is just lying there like a dummy setting.
I tried to change the Opacity. I saw no colour change on the screen.
I just posted this to know how it functions for other XDA members on their A(6) series phones.
Someone at XDA would come up with an idea or workaround to make it work and probably also put it on Notification Panel.
Just waiting!

Ok thank you for your reply. I think is a problem from the kernel because on custom Rom port from gs7 or gs8 aod and blue light filter are not working so the I think they have try to hide those feature but you can still see those because it's a port of the system ui

You are most welcome, McFy.
Yes, it has to do with the kernel. But it is not a problem. Samsung has deliberately left out the feature at Kernel level. If someone comes up with a custom kernel that supports this feature, yes, it might work.
Maybe on Framework too. When I tried to switch the display mode from Basic to Adaptive, it prompted me to disable Blue Light Filter to proceed with the mode change.
So I assume it didn't work for you too.
We can surely live without this feature. Still, it would have been pleasant to our eyes during nights (better sleep) and also our blue OLED pixels could have had the chance to live little longer. LOL

Lol, yes they are not feature I need but I reach how to enable the multwindow one my phone because I have nougqt and Samsung have disable it but on the dev option some setting for multwindow mode are present but change nothing I don't know how to enable it
I already added it in my ROM.
One thing I can surely tell you is that you won't be able to get this feature without editing framework and custom kernel.

Yes, I thought it had something to do with Kernel as well as Framework. Thank you for the information.
As I researched through, it looks like your ROM Advanced Seven for A710XX has been ported to A510XX by that kid, @DasNuddel. It looks like you have done an awesome work. And DasNuddel also has done his work very well in bringing the ROM to A510 devices.
Thanks, man!!

Arrived is an ported Advanced SEVEN (since December), I'm currently learning Kernel Development. To fixing bugs and try to bring Bluelight Filter to the ROM.
Kind regards,

Samsung Bluelight Filter is not that good.. Use cf lumen in root mode, it's effective

I tried Lux and CF Lumen in the past but I settled for Twilight for its simple interface. I have been using Twilight for years. I thought a native feature would be better. That's all. We didn't miss it on Marshmallow, definitely that's something we can live without.
I just wanted to get some insight on that hidden dummy feature.
I will give CF Lumen another try. It's been years. I expect some improvements. Thanks for your suggestion.

Twilight does not has root mode which means that the it applies a Filter which lights up the black areas of screen also, but cf lumen in root mode changes the colour of the screen so, black areas remain black. That's why I prefer it. You're welcome!

I tried CF Lumen as you suggested. Wow! Yes, I noticed the difference. Twilight just washes the screen with colours.
Previously, I tried CF Lumen on an LCD screen phone. That's why I didn't see the difference. CF Lumen is a right choice for an AMOLED device with root privilege. Now I know what I had been missing all these years. Psst!
I compared CF Lumen and Twilight, approximately same settings(I think). There was a stunning difference!! CF Lumen any night!!!
For reference, I have attached the comparison screenshots of my home screen. Forget the whites, just look at the blacks. I hope it helps others.
Thanks again, Updesh!
I have used Blue ligth filter in my roms with snapdragon (Here you only need to edit services.jar and BLF and AOD works)
But I with a friend created a mod BLF with more options than the BLF of N7 samsung and do not need to edit services.jar / framework.res or kernel.
It is a mod with more options:
Code:
Sepia
Black
Brown
Red
This made it work in grace ux 6.0.1 I just have to update the smalis to nougat and maybe manage to make it work on my rom Nougat A5 2016

I am not sure if I understand that, can you teach us how to do that?
Like we enabled camera2 api and debloated apps. Is there anyway to enable Ambient display features.

Even if we could we shouldn't do that. It's a LCD panel the back light will be always on and will eat as much battery as in use.

ambient display is not always on display
Display turn on only when noyification arrives or we lift the device
There is a quick setting app
Which adds quick setting tile of ambiemt display after giving adb permissions
I tried that
It shows ambient display on
But ambient display does not really work

You can ask a resurrection or lineage developer for a flash able zip to enable it.

I noticed if I turn on (have it turned off normally, personal preference) the animator duration scale found in developer options, then my app I use for Always on Edge notifications (app is called Always on Edge notifications lol) appears on unlocked phone screen moving as opposed to normal static image. My question is, is there any way to control that setting so it is app specific? I don't want animations on for everything, it annoys me, but would be nice to have it just for this app. Anyone know how I could do this? I'm still a noob.
