It would seem the notification LED is not as prominent as I would want it to be. In addition to that; the fact that it is on the top of the phone makes it almost impossible to notice (and in my case i never notice it). Any workarounds besides NotifyBuddy(i tried this. It doesnt allow me to use the fp scanner) and ambient display? The idea is just to have a simple notification LED

I've been myself searching for a solution, it seems the only one is to use an app like this > https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flysoft.panel.edgelighting&hl=en
but unfortunately, during my testing it failed to produce the intended results, it's simply inconsistent, tried other similar apps but I think those were low-quality apps. so currently I'm waiting for a new app or different solu.

Oh, you're right, there is some kind of a lit ring. I hadn't noticed that yet. But that's no notification LED, that's a bad joke
I'm using NotifyBuddy. But it seems to work just sometimes. I did not yet find out why.

yes, confirmed. maybe its compatibility with miui isn't one of its pros

I have switched to Nova launcher and changed everything I can to dark theme without resorting to Substratum.
The ONE thing that still annoys me is the incredibly bright Phone APP and Dialer screens. Especially when a call comes in/answered it's full screen light blue!
Anyone have a fully working solution?? Root or non-root, OTHER than Substratum?

I used non root substratum and changed everything to dark. I don't see any other way.

The LCD screen lights stay on regardless of theme color. AMOLED has individual pixels which a dark theme has potential to save battery.
I'm not looking to save battery, just eliminate the glare from hideous screens (Call/Dialer/etc.)
Is anyone else having an issue where contacts are showing duplicates just because they are on WhatsApp, viber, allo, etc? I can't seem to find a way to stop it. I've hidden duplicates on the contact app but not been able to on the phone app

I'm not sure if that's specific to Essential... But I've fixed it by making sure a sync just happened... And then wiping data on Contact Storage... And Contacts... Then forcing another sync...
It takes some time for everything to come back... But it fixed it for me...
It still shows wonky in a couple of other apps... But I don't care enough to mess with it

Pretty lame that it's so hard to answer the phone. I mean...IT'S A PHONE!
Also, you can only use the fingerprint scanner if you activate number or pattern security...why not just for other purposes, like answering the phone?

On Oreo there a fingerprint api that allows for reading directional swipes and stuff

And truth be told... It's not really a test... It's more a preview...
There are no bug I have found in my day to day use... And on the B2 release... Battery is tame to say the least...
I'm averaging 4.5% per hour... Combined use... On AccuBattery... And it keeps going down...

Hi I have a Xperia XA1 Plus and I also hate the google phone app is there any solution available for my phone?
Thanks for the reply.
have you looked at:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hb.dialer.free
True Phone Dialer & Contacts
Maybe what you are looking for.
Do you think that it would be possible to make a virtual notification light on the screen?
Like, lighting up a few pixels right beside de notch that blinks like a real notification light.
I've had this idea for a few days, but I don't know how to make it possible.
Thanks

yes there was already news reported about the app on the pixel's and that it was actually slowing them down, so i would imagine any phone that has this installed would have the same results.

I don't have the option to turn digital wellbeing's usage data permission wtf
Edit: I have successfully uninstalled digital wellbeing through adb, hope it was worth the while. I didn't use it like at all but I enjoyed seeing it there
i'm amazed by the amount of positive feedback but can someone post a simpler guide. i really wish to try this out.

Hey guys, got my 7t McLaren yesterday amazing device. But its late now so screen is dim and using dark mode with Samsung browser, low brightness and i can see a small cicle where the fingerprint is.Have a panzerglass on my screen so maybe its reflecting the light to the sensor? Is this normal behavior?
My mate 20 pro dont have this (also with UV glue panzerglass)

Does it only do it once too? If so that's a bit daft as you have to be looking at that exact moment

This is how horizon light works...
Just pulses once when a notification comes...
Only one time...
Doesn't work as a LED notification...
Otherwise it will **** the battery

It's there a Magisk mod to make it persist say every 30 seconds? Or even choose which apps it works with? Having it pulsing overnight because a bit of spam got emailed to me would suck.
