After the marshallow update the always on ambient mode for apps seems to be gone. Whenever I use runtastic now on my watch, it returns to the watch face after a while. How can I make the runtastic app stay displayed?
Start the app, than cover the screen with your hand until the watch vibrates. Done.

is this possible? and if so, how? i've tried a few apps from the market, but they didn't seem to work
Why? Do you hate your phone so much, you need a quick way to burn in the screen?
Actually, while it's in my car dock and I'm using google maps, or any music, it's hard to see the screen after it dims, esp. when driving with my convertible top down in the daytime.

Have you tried STAYAWAKE? Keeps screen on while plugged in to any source that charges.
the screen stays on already... but it still dims until i touch the screen again.
Use Tasker - it's more complicated than most apps, but it gives you tons more control over your phone too.
Just remember to both turn off auto-dim as well as turn your brightness up for the "plugged in" event or it won't work properly if you use tasker!
I have a setting for plugged and unplugged, as well as at home (in range of my wireless SSID) and away. So my GPS turns on when plugged in and away, but not plugged in at home. But my display is set up the way you want as well - and mine increases the display timeout too.

I like my screen to always be on when I am charging the phone, mostly becuase I drive a lot and it sucks to have the screen go off when you are using google maps. I seem that I have to keep changing the "screen always on" in the developer mode section in settings. Has anyone else been able to make this change stick?
I definitely had that option checked when I set up my phone after flashing beans v3 but when I went to check just now it was not selected. I guess I have the issue too, apparently.
Update: I just restated my phone and the option is unchecked again. Definitely not sticking after reboot for some reason.

I use the app *My Settings Pro* to set the screen to never time out whenever I have the phone docked in my truck.
It stays on until I set the screen timeout to 30 seconds & put it in my pocket.
There is a free app in the market called "Screen On"
It allows you to set the screen to stay "Always On" by a per app basis
So for example you can only select Google Maps and the only time the screen will stay on is when you are in Google Maps, etc..
My phone has been doing this since day one after reboot stay awake is unchecked I just use tasker now.

It mildly annoying. I like the screen on when its charging so I can just glance for notifications without touching it, or in the car mount. I guess I can just use my NFC tags for now.
Just a suggestion, but you guys may want to be careful how long you keep your screen lit while charging.
I had my old G3 set to never go out while charging (it was on all night at times) and now it shows some nasty screen burn-in on any white screen (like the gmail background).
Any time it is on a white BG, you can clearly see a gost image of the home screen and the clock widget/icons etc.etc.
I have a similar issue. I set the checkbox to always on when connected via USB directly after setting up the phone for the first time and now it's always on is re-on when deselect it and go to the settings again afterwards.
Could it be some side effect / conflict caused by some powerful apps like "NFC task launcher" or something like that who can change settings as well as the settings dialogues?
Having a issue where sometimes voice command ceases to function but using the visualizer app the device is hearing loud an clear...
I've reset the watch yesterday an uninstalled all my wear apps an it was working fine then reinstalled mini launhcer, wear visualizer, battery stat watchface an partner app and thats all.
So woke up this morning and it will not respond to "ok google" again nothing updated on the phone over night (nexus 5 factory image 5.0)
Any idea what happened an what I should look through to figure out what is going on? This is my black titan one I got last friday the white gold one I got at black friday hasn't gave me one slight issue at all.
edit---
seams like a microphone sensitivity issue as the visualizer responds when I tap next to the watch in varrying degrees but seams its lost its sensitivity... any ideas?
just updated and having similar issue
When i move my wrist the screen also fails to activate.

In addition to this the screen turns off some times when left alone even though the option is set to always on.
The most annoying thing for me is that very often my watch doesn't vibrate for notifications any more. Sometimes it will, but some times it wont...
Hi Guys,
I have the Ticwatch Pro 3 and it's great.
But I have a little problem. I love Always on Display (AOD) and in some situations I also like to set the display not to go into dimming mode via StayLit Wear with the "indefinitely" mode. This also worked great with my Huawei Watch 2, even when I put my arm down on the home screen, even if you can see the time normally. If I set the "indefinitely" mode with the StayLit Wear app on the Ticwatch Pro 3, it works that the Ticwatch Pro 3 always remains active, but only if, for example, I have the settings open or I am in the app selection and if an app is open even if I put my arm down. It also works on the home screen when I have my arm up all the time and look at the clock. But as soon as I'm on the homescreen and I turn my arm away or take it down, the watch always goes into dimming mode, despite the "indefinitely" mode of StayLit Wear.
That could actually only be due to the fact that Mobvoi has specified this in some system file for Wear OS, right?
Can I possibly edit the specific system file, or do something via ADB Shell so that I can set it so that the Ticwatch Pro 3 does not go into dimming mode as soon as I turn the arm away or take it down so that it is only time-controlled again is when the display goes into dimming mode and is not forced to dim when I turn my arm away or take it down?
Possibly for better understanding:
So it works with my Huawei Watch 2.
However, with the Huawei it is also the case that the change to the dimming mode does not happen automatically when I turn my arm away or take it down, but it is purely based on the set time of seconds until the display in the AOD is dimmed.
With the Ticwatch, however, this is set somewhere in such a way that the display not only goes into dimming mode based on the set seconds, but also presumably controlled by a sensor, from a certain angle regardless of the set seconds, immediately goes into dimming mode.
And I want to get rid of the sensor, that the dimming mode is forced and my question is whether someone knows where I can do that.
Thank you in advance for your feedback.

I know this is an old thread but did anyone find a solution for this ? I'm left handed so am using Lefty to flip the screen so I can wear it on my right wrist but if hold it too high and vertical it goes to sleep. I have to keep my arm somewhat flat and look over it I can't bring it to my face
Disable gestures?

Hello!
I'm using the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G on Taiwanese ROM V12.5.1.0.RKITWXM. I'm looking for Pocket mode, but I cannot find this option in the Settings menu. My problem is that I set screen unlock by trusted bluetooth device and when I put the phone in my pocket, after a while it automatically unlocks the screen and starts pressing things like triggering the assistant, opening apps etc. Back on my previous phone (Poco X3 NFC on Android 10, MIUI 12.0) I had an option to turn on Pocket mode to prevent accidental unlocks. Where is this option on the Mi 11 Lite 5G on MIUI 12.5?! Is it removed?
Me too.My Mi 11lite always lights up in my pocket when I run in no underwear every night.My pants light up too, I am naked.so embarrassed.

Turning off the screen double-tap feature, turning off the screen shape feature when there is a notification, and turning off the pick-up to wake-up feature will improve the problem of the phone opening itself in the pocket.
