I think we've agreed that the screen is the biggest battery draw on this phone.
I am on the stock ROM, and my screen lights up whenever anything happens on the phone. Any notifications light the screen up. Email/text/etc screen comes on to display the notification in addition to the sound.
Is there a way to keep the sound, and notification in the status bar, but keep the screen from lighting up?
I get a ton of emails M-F not to mention text messages and I don't need the screen firing up every time I get one. Hearing it is good, but I'm sure I'd save battery with the screen forced to stay off. Incremental savings? Maybe. But every little bit, right?

I just discovered this when I flashed Unofficial. It has settings to disable the screen coming on when a text message arrives - at least it's a start, particularly if you get a lot of texts.

Is that setting not in the stock ROM?
How do you get to it in yours?
Is there a way to have the second screen always display time, battery, connectivity, and notification? Hoping to have extra real estate on the main screen.
I would be interested in knowing this as well, maybe there is someway to use the full screen (with the second screen part) altogether?
I'm confused. My second screen always shows the time, date, battery, and any notifications.
Does it show that info while the screen is on? Or does that information move to the main screen?

I can only speak for stock and unrooted but it DOES NOT show time, date, or battery info whilst the main screen is on. As far as notifications go, only briefly (1-2 seconds) as they come through.
I am also interested in this. I am very happy with the phone and the only issue is how the top gets slightly darker during immersive mode. Only when lighting up the second screen does the main screen become uniform for immersive apps. Is there a setting with the default ROM that forces the second screen on for all apps?
Same issue here

I'd think there must be. And at least with root we should be able to change that setting. Now let's hope someone finds it.
BTW: I contacted LG about this but haven't gotten a response yet.

Is this still an issue with newer V10 batches? It's the only thing keeping me from trying again. I'm a bit OCD and I returned 2 V10s in November because on book readingnin immersive mode, it drove me crazy that the top of the screen was slightly darker than the rest.
I'd be willing to give it a go again if I knew LG fixed.

I have installed H2OS on my oneplus X and it's working great. But there is only one problem, it is the ambient display features, it does wakes my phone up when I pick it up, but when I receive notifications, it does not thing. Notifications even not show up on lock screen. Is it just me or it's how the rom work ? Is there any way to get ambient display like on other roms (wake up and show notifications on lock screen) ?

Yeah, it's a little weirs. Sometimes it works and sometimes not. There is a problem in general with notifications on h2os. But I guess we only can get help on the Chinese forums....
Listing some bugs and improvements
Bugs:
1. Screenshot does not cover entire screen area
2. No smooth transition for notifications
3. Auto brightness calibration is unstable
.
.
Improvements:
1. Enable hide notch option
2. Battery percentage in status bar
.
.
headsup notification lost animation compared to third party roms like RR,AICP,OMNI.
and the statusbar icons are too crowded
Swiping down the notification bar once doesn't have a smooth animation it really bugs me!

I would rather say it is more advantage than shortcoming.
Battery percentage would be very pleasant. It's pretty much my only gripe about the phone so far.
when power button is pressed to lock the screen it first flashes red then turns off
similarly when brightness is reduced too quickly, screen has red tint and then brightness gets lowered
That must be your device. Mine has no such issues.

Is adaptive brightness or night light enabled?

It's supposed to be a turn off effect/animation, the screen goes off with that 3D-movie effect. It's not a bug.

If its supposed to be a feature, then why does it only shows red tint where the screen is white?
My uncle also has the same phone, i didn't notice this happening to his phone. Does it happen to you too?

Can you share a screenshot? We might be talking about totally different things.. And about the effect I'm talking about, i can't like intentionally notice it if i look at screen going off very carefully but only notice it sometimes (like an offguard thing), it barely lasts 0.1 second before screen goes off!

I think we're talking about the same thing if you say it lasts only a split second before screen going black, So i cant post a screenshot.
And the red flash only comes where the screen is on White UI, like when im in settings or google app. Where ever the the lcd is white, it flashes red just a fraction of a second before going off.

It looks more like an intentional thing rather than a bug to me! I doesn't cause any problem.

Here's the link to the video of that red flash, i made the video in slow motion. I asked the online vendor to replace it, and even went to service centre, they both denied.

Oh that looks bad.. That's not the thing that happens with me, it's goes like the black shadows of fonts and icons go briefly red before going off, it's probably a bug in that feature for u..

just noticed another bug.
the option to switch off ambient display is greyed off for me, everytime the phone is on table its always on the ambient display without any movement.
I lock the phone and it comes to ambient display within 2 seconds.
Has anybody had any issues connecting Bluetooth devices? I have an Anker Soundbuds Slim+ BT headset - and the X6 just doesn't see them. I can pair them with my Fitbit Ionic in 3 seconds, but when I try to pair them with the phone, they're simply not detected?! I have connected different headsets without issue. These buds work on BT 4.1, so they should work with this phone, right?!
D'oh. Just noticed that it had previously paired - so was hiding in "previously connected devices". Never mind...

Hi, im coming from an iPhone...and im really struggling to enjoy the screen of the Galaxy S9+
the screen is sooooo saturated, even when i adjust to less red in: "Configuration > Screen
Plase, can you help me to make the screen less coloured or less saturated??
i think those colors are not real....
Thanks
If you're still on Oreo...
Go to Settings / Display / Screen Mode and try one of the settings other than Adaptive display.
Also, if the blue light filter is turned on, try turning it off. That will make the screen seem less red.
If you're on Pie, you should be able to do the same thing, but I don't know where in settings it might be.

It's possible you have a defective screen. If you can, take it to a phone store and compare yours to another one on display. Mine does not seem reddish to me, unless the blue light filter is turned on.
i believe the most accurate display mode is basic, so maybe try that one?
