Hello,
I have installed Android Oreo update from an FTF file. I have read somewhere that this update comes with Ambient Display feature but it seems that it is not present in my phone. Could anyone tell me where to find it?
Thanks
Ambient display is not enabled on our X. I tried it using overlay, but the touchscreen does not work after the screen lights up. I guess this is something that should be fixed in kernel :/

Ambient display is good but.....its less secure.......and cant only show the icons hiding the notification....... So it was a request....... Ambient display doesnt light the screen up when the device is moved......where as moto display does.......

It does, at least in cm12.1 and aosp5.1.1/6.0.1 there is a setting to show it when moving device or even by waving hand over proximity sensor. I think it should be in cm13 too but I haven't tried it yet.

Well waving hand works but not moving device
I can't believe I'm just now seeing this lol, I've been looking into it man. Active Display requires a lot of Motorola Dependencies, but I haven't gave up on it yet
Hello,
Has anyone noticed a promixity (maybe ambient light) sensor issue? Often (more in the dark) I can see a weak red light blinking right where there is the proximity sensor(it stays there if automatic brightness is on). I tried disabling and closing one app per time but it seems more like a software bug...
Anyone else?
Sony Xperia X F5121
Hello ! Yes! (sorry for my language I'm French).
Tonight, after charging my phone at 100%, I have seen a red little light in the '' capter '' a the right (for automatic luminosity I think). It was a big bug who during ~ 30 minutes. And I have lost 20% of battery, I think, cause to this bug.. Do you already have the bug today?

@Mr High Tech @kistigun @kalel29
Are you kidding me guys? :laugh::laugh:
It's not a red light.... It's barely visible because it's an Infrared Sensor Infrared light is usually visible only in very dark conditions.
Hint that will make your day - when it's dark and you barely see it, try pointing a camera at it! It flashes white now, doesn't it.

more than wanting to know what it is, i think they want to understand why; why does the proximity sensor stay on?
i had this question too, before updating to the latest firmware (.292). after that, it seems the "problem" doesn't occur anymore, but i'm not that sure. i'll have to double check.
however, do some of you use "Smart backlight control" feature?

Smart backlight control makes use of the accelerometer of the phone. Keeps the screen on by detecting movement. Neat feature.
Smart call handling on the other hand uses the proximity sensor. Also the style cover preinstalled software. And of course Call handling uses the proximity sensor.
I'm using a modified version of Gravity Screen for pocket mode. Proximity sensor flashes all the time in order to turn the screen on and off when it's in or out of the pocket. Also I use the proximity sensor so that the screen won't turn on when it's in the pocket - like when a call comes in and I don't want to accidentally answer.
One thing you should know about the proximity sensor is that it uses a crazy low amount of power (0.18mA). Now the software that uses the sensor might have many wakelocks but we also need features so it's a small price to pay haha. Also if you're planing on using gravity screen (which is a cool app), you can always add a on/off widget.
There's really nothing to worry about - none of those features/apps I mentioned register on power consumption.
For quite a while, almost over all recently updated roms, i found out that ambient display feature now activates the touch screen which may lead to a turn on if pressed. I haven't encountered this issue back then, i was very happy with this feature, but now i misclick things most of the times when i take out to check the clock and put back my phone in the pocket.
It's not kind of major issue, but it's bothering, and i can't live without ambient display.
The reason i made this thread is to ask if anyone found any solution to disable the touch when im using ambient display, thanks.
Hi,
I have a very annoying feature on my Moto Z. If the motion sensor detect movement, the screen turns on for 1-2 sec. I tried to turn it off, but can't find option for this. After searching for the issue I found suggestions to disable it with Moto app, but I can't find option under Actions with the latest 7.1 android version. I have only this options:
- double karate chop for torch
- twist for quick capture
- swipe to shrink screen
- approach for moto sdisplay
- Attentive display
- Pick up to stop ringing
- Flip for DND
I prefer non-rooted stock rom solution.
Thanks,
Easiest way is completely disable Moto Display (Moto apps > Display > Off). But of course you will not be able to use "Approach for Moto Display" as well.
Thanks! It's working fine. If you found a solution to disable this motion feature only, it would be perfect!

in the moto actions app, deactive the "approach for moto infos" feature
now you can have moto display - but it´ll only be activated by new notifactions
instead of activating through the motion sensor

Thanks. Confirmed it is working as intended in the original post.
They should just make it as an option in Moto Display ?
I just noticed that i have an error in proximity during call and auto brightness. How do i fix it?
can somebody confirmed if theirs are working on one ui 4.1?
I'm using UI 4.0 haven't noticed anything like that. It uses ambient light sensor as it lacks proximity.
Check if hardware is working fine using CPU Z see tsl sensor lux value.

Does yours have adaptive display on OneUI 4? mine is gone. Only outdoor mode.
Also I cant seem to find that tsl sensor lux value on CPU-Z
Yes, mine is still intact. Did you check sensors tab?
