i like the dim screen feature and annoyed that you cant control it when you want it on or off, is there is mod to enable user control over this feature?
i am rooted with x-note rom
I recently posted a similar question on the CyanogenMod forum [1]:
I have been using the same installation of CyanogenMod 11 on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (variant for Canada AKA SM-N900W8 AKA hltecan) since I received my Galaxy Note 3 in 2015 May. I have configured CyanogenMod so that the display stays on while the computer is powered by the USB cable. (While the computer is powered by the battery and the battery is discharging, the display turns off after 1 minute of inactivity.) My problem is that I cannot find a way to disable the automatic dimming of the display while the computer is powered by the USB cable. My workaround is to touch the display after the display has automatically dimmed. However, this workaround does not work well when the computer is mounted on the windshield of my car and I am trying to watch a street map to follow a planned driving route. The automatic dimming makes the display too dim for me to read while I am driving. I have searched the Web, including this forum, but have not found a solution. I found a suggestion [1] to use the “Power Control” widget on the home screen but using that widget to change the display brightness does not disable the automatic dimming for me. I am using the build of CyanogenMod from “cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-hlte.zip”.

Get lightflow from the play store and you should be able to get that working

I tried Light Flow but without root it won't work. Not sure if there will be a future update for this, but I certainly hope they add it with a security patch OTA soon.
Update: I tried another app called light manager led and that app work perfectly. If light flow does not work for you, then try light manager.
I've tried both Light Flow and Light Manager, but they both keep activating the Ambient Display every few seconds.
Anyone aware of an LED app that doesn't have these issues?
hi
i also noticed from first day this issue with my phone. I keep googling it to see if it is something wrong with my phone or it is just the way nexus 6p was designed. When I charge my phone (with the phone being completely off) the does not change color neither for "charging" nor for "full charged". It;s annoying as I never know when the phone is full charged in order to disconnect.

This is normal for both Nexus devices. My 5X is exactly the same way out of the box. The LED does not light up to show as connected to charger or fully charged.

I don't think I tried Pro, but if you turn Ambient Display off then it won't affect it anyway. It's when you turn ambient display on and use the programs that it keeps appearing.
Edit: Yep, tested again with the Pro version. Ambient Display keeps coming on every few seconds.

If you are using light flow, disable the option that allows light flow to turn on the screen, I believe its called 'Device Admin' under general settings.
If that doesn't work, then nothing will probably work to allow ambient display and any LED manager to work without conflicting each other, as they both use the same resources.
I also had the issue with no indicator LED while charging on my Nexus 6p with Light Manager & ambient display.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the Light Manager app and now it works again.:good:
Question is now for how long?

Don't forget that you also need to activate the features by going into your settings menu and enabling the ability to have the device use led displays. You can download and use any light manager you want, but until you enable the feature on the device itself, none of the apps will work.
As of this post here are the instructions for enabling the led light display to work:
1. Go to settings
2. Select the Notifications settings
3. Tap the gear (settings) icon in the upper right corner.
4. Enable "pulse notification light"
5. Open the light manager app of your choice (I prefer light manager - LED settings)
6. Set the app to your preference
7. Reboot device
8. Profit
Hope this helps resolve any issues you have
Hi, i have installed cm12.1 in my s3 neo but the option of live display is not working after lock & unlock the device...
Well it doesn't work as it should but it mostly is working. The litle devil have the will of its own so that it sometimes won't do what you told him but eventually it will work including the switch between day and night mode.
For the reference recommendation is to switch it off.
Right, but when i compare s3 neo with other device it looks like s3 neo has radish display not clear white like other phones
On my S3 neo live display doesn't work at all in automatic mode, and I have to set it manually. Furthermore, the minimum level of brightness is too high for my wife's standard sleep level, so I had to install a third-party app
Currently mine disables LiveDisplay every time the screen is turned off. And Automatic doesn't work at all.

Try this script for Automate. It makes it so that LiveDisplay is disabled and then put on auto every time you turn the screen on.

Could you help me do this using Tasker?
Does anybody know how to turn this on on the Pixel 4?

I have always on display enabled but it does not seem to be the assistant ambient mode.

Same here, I don't have it. Maybe now that's official, the next update of google app will enable this
On my new Pixel 4 XL "Ambient Mode" during charging is not available. It is just not available in Google Assistant (see attachment).
My previous phone was a OnePlus 3 and after some troubles with the Google Assistant which crashed every time on starting Ambient Mode while charging, I opted out for this on several times so it wouldn't bother me any more when I plugged my OP3 in.
Could this have anything to do with it? Maybe Google "remembered" my actions on ambient mode?
Thnx,
Rene
