Always On Display Bug? - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

When I block my phone, the always on shows instantly and never goes off. It shouldn't turn off after some seconds? I waited for 10 minutes (twice) and the screen doesn't turn off

i have my always on to stay on between 8 pm and 1 am in those times it never shuts off unless in a pocket I believe

I take the opportunity to ask about the subject.
I do not want to have AOD turned ON always, but want every time a notification arrives, the display turn on and shows the notification. What should i activate?
Thanks!

I miss the notification light so bad

Seriously, I'm already really missing the blinking trackball of my Nexus One flashing ever second in different colors depending on what notification I have.
No Led is sort of working, but when I hit the power button it just turns the screen off and then the icon is there again, so I have to kind of hold it just long enough for it to turn the screen back on, but not long enough to make it launch the dialogue box in which i can choose to put it in airplane mode or power it off.
I suspect it won't be long before someone figures out how to put a part of that OLED screen to use as a notification light...

Try NoLED (10 chars)
Im also just waiting for some sort of wonderful notification app that most likely WILL be created soon

Better, imo, since NoLED drains more battery than this.
Does anybody read?
I said I AM using NoLED but it's giving me problems.
dinan, that app says it's only for 2.1...would it still work?

You have to hit the Home button to show the lock screen.

There's a froyo link, but no that's meant for the Galaxy S international version. I was just pointing it out because I think someone will port it to the Nexus S soon, so I don't suggest trying it on your phone just yet.

Thanks. That helps, but I guess the way NoLED works is that it turns on the screen each time you ask it to blink...and with the Nexus S there's that stupid screen off animation. So that keeps happening everytime it works lol. Any way to turn that off?

[Q] Is there a way to disable the trackball?

my screen never turns off and I think that's because of trackball.....how can disable it? thanks
check this first
Screen never turn off?So how you turn it off?Always with Power button?BTW,check this first
Go to,
Settings> Display >Screen timeout.I think you have set it to Never Turn Off.So set it to 30 seconds or whatever you want man.

thanks but it's not because of this. after hit thelock button, the screen stops for a second then starts again ... and so without stopping
I would also like to disable the trackball. It has been acting haywire. Makes typing a pain.

Ticker sleep time

Anyone notice you cant turn this off? I think its a bug. The little hourglass with the ZzZz's doesnt go away when I turn it off.

Noticed this a while back.But don't let it bother me too much since it only appears for a minute for me. I somehow got rid of it by changing both times to the same time in the ticker option. Not sure if it'll work but you can give it a shot.

Lockscreen notification, way to change how long the screen stays on?

I don't use AOD
When I receive a text, the screen lights up for about 1.5-2 seconds and then turns off, not enough time to read it or try and click it unless I'm not distracted, anyway to increase that time to 5 seconds?
Found an app that seems to do the trick for me
