Hey everyone!
I'm here to announce the release of a new Android app developed by me and my partner under the company "Symetium Corporation."
REMOVED
The app is basically just a list of things we would really want to be able to put around the camera cutout. It's extremely customizable and has endless combinations of setups. For example, you can enable a setting called 'Always Show Ring' which lets you have a solid color, dynamic color (based on the current app), or a few different types of gradients. In addition to that, you can run a rotation animation on it. Finally, you can also set up different indicators such as a notification indicator, an audio visualizer, a charging indicator, a low battery indicator, a critical battery indicator, and a device overheat indicator. Another notable effect is that you can add a glow effect to spice up the ring's appearance.
The app isn't free because we need to make back some of the development costs as well as fund our exciting upcoming projects, HOWEVER, you get 1 free hour of use and can watch short video advertisements in exchange for additional hours of time using the app. If you can't afford to purchase the app, we understand but would still love it if you would take a moment and try the app for an hour or two!
Compatible Devices
- Galaxy S10+
- Galaxy S10
- Galaxy S10e
Download
The app can be found on the Google Play Store here:
REMOVED
If you have an S10, S10+ or S10e, we'd love for you take a bit of time and try it out. Feedback is extremely crucial to us at this stage of development so we'd love to hear back from you! Thanks for your time!
Update:
Announcing support for the Galaxy S10e!
Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to this new update. We really appreciate your help!
nice but it's out of position.
Bug
Position of ring out of hole Please update this in newer version.
[No message]
So before anyone asks, what are the advantages over Chainfire's implementation ?
Does it work screen off ?
EDIT : This is not aligned with the camera hole on my SM-G9730.

it does seem to work screen off as I can see the ring when AOD is enabled, but it's out of position, it's not around the camera cut out.

no guess not as I turned off AOD it would not appear until I touch the screen for the fingerprint to appear.
Hey everyone thanks for the feedback! I just released an update to fix the positioning issue. Apparently, I was using the wrong method for device detection. Basically, you were all seeing what I see when I test rather than what you SHOULD have seen using an S10/S10+. Apologies for the confusion! The update should rollout within the next few hours.

It works as long as you have Always-On display enabled. Our goal eventually is to make it work regardless of whether or not AOD is enabled.

When you achieve that goal i will buy the app for sure...
@epicality, Hmm, Where's the setting for the s10+? I'm getting half cut-off circle, it seemed to be for the s10 model?
Also now I got this error message, please see attached.
i got a very big cutout in s10+
@epicality
its still out of position with latest update, it's get little better when using WQHD+ resolution, but using FHD+ makes it worse.
Hi do you still have issues with alignment or detection im getting emails from people about it still apologies for this but neither he or I own a s10 or s10+ to test on
I am the client who designed the app

I currently purchased your program and hope for further upgrades.
Bugs I found:
1. The program cannot correctly recognize the phone model (Hong Kong S10 SM-G9730), see attached screenshot.
2. The position of the ring coincides with the position of the camera.
If you're having issues with the app recognizing your device, please download the app "Phone Device Info" by "sadens studio" and send a screenshot of the first section like so:

With the absence of the notification LED, I'd like to use the AOD to see notifications.
The big drawback of that is that it doesn't move to help prevent burn in.
Does anyone have a work around for that, or a good AOD app that you use?
Will we have burn in?

So you think Google disabled the AOD burn in avoidance feature on the Pixel 3?

Edit: I contacted support as well but all I could get was an ambiguous assurance that "AOD won't hurt performance". No confirmation either way about whether it avoids burn in.

Guys, it's easy enough to test on your own instead of asking some ignorant support guru in India. Put a post it on the screen with a corner on one of the dots separating the hours and minutes, and you'll see that it does still move around ever so subtlety.
I have kind of tested this and I can tell you from watching carefully where the AOD display in connection with where the lockscreen is which is stationary. I can tell you that the AOD does move from time to time and does not stay in the same place.

Clearly, Looks like you got intolerant against Indian geeks. Hah. Any given day, unlike you - I think, they're proficient and down to earth at the same time.
By the way, the answer to the OPs question is, On my Pixel 3, the AOD does move a very little bit randomly by a very little margin, you won't notice it until you pay close attention to it for a while. Alternatively, you can use apps like Burn check, in order to check if your display is okay.
I've just created an app called Pixel Pulse. I could use some testers if anyone is willing to give it a try. You can select the apps you want to have the app pulse your Ambient Display. There's paid customization for icons and colors but the core functionality of the app is free.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.compass.pixelpulse
If you had previously purchased Ambi-Turner, it has been updated for the new permissions, but because it was written for 8.0 and when Google's ambient display worked differently I decided to leave it as it is. You may however transfer your purchase status of Ambient Display to Pixel Pulse using both apps.

So, the LED is way too tiny for my aging eyes (also cannot get it to change colours with Lightflow anyway). I am looking for some sort of app that can show a notification on the screen when the screen is off. I don't want the screen to turn on. I just want some sort of icon to show up. I used to use an app called NoLed that would do this. You could customize icons for different notifications, colours, timing, duration, etc. Looks like that app is long gone.
I've been trying a bunch of different "edge lighting" apps, hoping to find one that will simply light up the edges to notify my (when the screen is off). So far, none of them work the way I want (or at all).
Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

There are several drop-in AOD replacement apps, and they work well, but... From all reports they drink your battery too much to be worth it. Too bad, not sure why Huawei didn't go that next obvious step and have control over 'per app' notifications and such. It pretty much makes the stock AOD useless unless you really, really like knowing what time it is.
Maybe give a try to this, a perfect AOD application fully customizable !

I tried this and was unable to get it to work. All I want it to do is light up the edges of the screen when the screen is off and a notification comes in. I had all the settings looking like they were correct. I chose difference colours for different apps, but no go. It wouldn't even work when trying "test". It would only work with the screen on.

Same here.. 30% overall drain overnight.. Means at least 20% by the app itself
Just gave this app a try and it's got a few quirks to it. If I leave the "allow fingerprint functionality" after about 3 seconds the fingerprint location lights up and that's all that shows on the screen.
I also noticed when unlocking, face detection is no longer automatic. I have to double tap the screen to dismiss this app and then double tap again to start the face unlock.
Its a shame the stock aod is so terrible

The stock AOD will hopefully be better soon as Huawei in it's p30 pro latest firmware will add 3rd party access to the AOD, so developers can add functionality to the AOD.

Holey Light is a LED emulation app. It animates the edges of the camera cut-out (AKA punch-hole) as replacement for the sadly missing LED on many modern devices.
Additionally, it provides a notification display for when the screen is "off", replacing - or working in conjunction with - the Always-On Display feature. As this display is not around the camera hole, it is aptly named the Unholey Light.
Supports all Samsung devices with in-screen camera hole, and several Google Pixels.
Features
Emulates notification LED
Four different display modes: Swirl, Blink, Pie, Unholey Light
Configurable animation size, position, and speed
Customizable color for each notification channel
Selects initial notification color by analyzing dominant color of app icon
Displays during screen "off", sub-1% battery use per hour in Unholey Light mode
Separate configuration modes for different power and screen states
Ability to mark notifications as seen based on various triggers
Respects Do-Not-Disturb and AOD schedules
Can hide AOD completely, partially, and/or keep the clock visible
Additional AOD Helper package for further battery usage reduction
All teh details and all teh sauce!
It's all on GitHub!

Nothing pops up on my S10+ after permission needed 2/4 (link device). Are there any logs i could provide? Is there any way to link it manually?

There's no selection dialog for a Wi-Fi network / Bluetooth device at all? Have you tried closing/reopening the app? Uninstalling/reinstalling it? Making sure Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are both on and you're connected to something?
I do not know how to link the device/companion app manually, no. Until I needed it to work around a bug in the notification system, I didn't even know it existed.

Try un/reinstalling and rebooting.
I've seen others who use notification access comment it sometimes doesn't start, though I haven't encountered that behavior even once during testing.
Otherwise I don't know. Did you grant all the permissions? Did a device link pop up?
It could of course also be an internal crash. Check logcat.

I found out that it's working for Gmail and Samsung's Stock Email app, even when locked.
WhatsApp works, but only when unlocked and only when status bar is visible (so not for full screen apps).

WhatsApp works fine for me, both locked and unlocked, so that's strange. What sort of full screen app did you test with? Might be Android hides the overlay when an app is fullscreen? Note it only works in portrait mode, there's no way to draw in the right place in landscape.

Get actual Samsung Edge Lighting Notifications with any app while your screen is off!
Since we all know Samsung only did half the job with this feature, this app will enable you to trigger Edge Lighting (the real one !) when your screen is off. It works with any app by reading the app notification creating a new temporary notification that triggers edge lighting (you won't notice it in your notification list).
You can set custom color filters for your apps, based on their names.
Real Samsung Edge Lighting
Extremely minimal battery drain
No fake AOD Screen
Works with ANY app (including Messenger!)
Initial setup is a bit tedious, but that's mostly Samsung's fault.
Any suggestion to improve the app is -of course- welcome!

Thanks for your answer , but with Always On edge I can have the notch notification untill I read it. With the edge lightning I have only the lighter when the notification come. I like to have both.
I was using always on edge and holey light together to have this effect but this affect the battery so I was looking for another solution.

Well I use my app for Edge Lighting (around the edges, not the notch) to see when a notification comes, and Holey Light to remind me of unread notifications.
I can't seem to get it to work. I have edge lighting set to always. But when my screen is off it doesnt work. I'm actually getting only this app's notification with it's color (black)

On my S10e it is working.
But I probably do not fully understand philosophy of the edge light at all or something, because for what is this good for when it only do the effect one time, which takes only few seconds and thats all.
How will this help me to alert to SMS for example when I get back near the phone and look at it?. Or it is not ment as substitute for notification LED?

No it's not meant as a substitute for notification LED. First release was actually on phones that had a notification LED. It's just a pretty way to display notifications. And if your screen is off, it will prevent it from turning on.

Edge Lighting just makes the notification more noticable if the phone is in view, that has always been its only purpose. It allows you to see, by color, what the notification is. It is not and never was meant to a substitute for the notification. Now, if you use Holey Light and Edge Lighting you can have both...
Can't wait to try this. Curious though, how did you learn to make Android apps in a day then upload it to the play store that quick. I started learning a while ago for games and still not the best at it and uploading to the play store normally take max of 24 hours to get on to the store lol.
The app is working great, however, these would be my suggestions for a slight improvement:
1: Add a search function, as the list can be quite long.
2: After you switch on an app, move it to the top of the list, so that when you enter the app all of the ones marked "on" would be at the top.
I can't think of anything else as it is working just fine.
What happens when multiple notifications come in? Will it cycle through them?
Yes
Just tried it but I am sticking with just Holey Light. It would be nice to have this maybe cycle back on for a set amount of time so you could use it as a notification light.
Arc Lighting adds a highly customizable ring of light around the camera cutout of your phone. You can use this light with various indicators such as audio visualization, notification lighting, critical or low battery warnings, as well as a charge indicator. The ring can also appear on your Always-On display. (to make aod work you need to make sure you have downloaded always on amoled and activated it, you also need to make sure samsung stock aod and samsung edge lighting is disabled under samsung display settings you also need to make sure that aod is enabled under arclighting with override set to off)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FibMTD5Mdx8
Features:
- Highly customizable lighting for the Galaxy S20, S20 ultra, S10e, and Note 10. Select a variety of colors, animations, and styles.
- Always show ring with various gradient effects (add multiple colors and make them spin for a visual experience)
- An adjustable glow effect that can be turned on or off (sometimes this can cause the light to freeze to a white glow this will be fixed)
- Notification lighting both when the display is on or off (update planned for only the lockscreen or only inapp)
- Music lighting that syncs the light to your music (does not work together with other indicators so other indicators will stop working if you enable music lighting this will be fixed)
- Battery indicator lighting for charging, low and critical battery states. (note it will not work until you configure the zones you want the colors to appearm, not configuring zones can freeze the light entirely this will be fixed)
- Device overheating indicator for gamers and power users (note it will not work until you configure the zones you want the colors to appear, not configuring zones can freeze the light entirely this will be fixed)
- Arc Lighting can be configured to match the color of your wallpaper, the app you're currently in, or both! (this only works for the only show ring and only when you set it to a solid color the option is not available for gradient colors which will be added later)
This app requires certain permissions to function correctly.
Accessibility: This permission is used for the ring to appear over your lock screen, always-on display, and for accessing the color of the current app you're in. This permission is required for the app to function properly.
Draw Over Other Apps: This permission allows the ring to show on top of other apps. This permission is required for the app to function properly.
Microphone Access: This permission is used to analyze the internal device audio for the music lighting. You will not be asked for this permission unless you choose to enable the Audio Visualizer indicator for the ring.
Storage Access: This permission is used to get the color of your wallpaper. You will not be asked for this permission unless you choose to use the color of your wallpaper for the ring.
Notification access: This permission is used to change the color of the ring after notifications
Burn-in concerns: Some Android displays may suffer from mild burn-in if a single item is displayed on the screen for an extremely significant amount of time. If you are concerned about this, feel free to enable the rotation animation in ring settings. That will ensure the display is constantly changing. Alternately, you can disable the default effect to only show the ring while an indicator is being triggered. Note: Samsung Galaxy devices come with burn-in protection that moves the pixels a little each time.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
how do i disable individual notifications: currently this is a planned update, you can go into custom colors and set each app you don't want notifying to 100% transparent
light is constantly flashing even if i cleared all notifications: sometimes theres forced notifications such as when you're charging it will force a notification that says you're fast charging, the light will pick up on these you need to hold on these notifications and turn them off to stop the light there should be nothing at all in the notificationpanel, if you still have a flashing light with nothing in the panel contact me.
frozen light: music lighting will disable all other indicators same with battery indicator or battery temp indicator, you need to set custom zones otherwise the light will be frozen, glow also tends to freeze the light so turn that off if it's frozen (this will be fixed in a coming update)

Can you give me an unlock code for Arc Lighting-Notification Light for Galaxy S20 Ultra? Thank you!
Edit: Also, the indicator is a bit big for the new camera size of the Galaxy S20/S20+/Ultra. I thought I'd let you know so you can have a setting to make it a bit smaller.

Hello,
This app seems really great!
I still have one question though - is there a way to show notification light when screen is off and when I tap the screen then the AOD shows its info while still Arc lightning pulses its notification?
I tried to do this on my S20 but I couldn't find a way through the settings. Probably I am missing something...
Thank you,
Vasil

hi you can either use a third party aod app or the override toggle

Cool app, gonna use it from now on

I am using a different app, but that one is draining battery and the battery on s20 ultra is already ****ty haha. So how is the battery consumption for this app?
Possible to get a code ?

People can afford a $1000 phone but cannot donate 1 dollar to get the app. Stop asking for codes if the dev wants he will mention about the codes in OP.

i give codes to everyone who asks as it's a way to give back to the community and get some more users, but i can't see if i don't get messages sent to me as i go through them in bulk, it's impossible keeping track of multiple different threads
would any kind admin or someone i can trust take care of sending out codes, i can't keep up with all this and my life which makes it take weeks for me to send out codes, people also never bother to redeem the codes making me have 50 codes that eventually expire, i don't have unlimited codes, i'd also appreciate if people who received the codes rated the app, i am getting a lot of 1 star ratings now so it would help a whole lot right now, people rate 1 star just asking me to give them the app for free as unfortunately once people know they can get something for free they use it, i tried to be quiet about it as i didn't want people to take advantage over me, one person literally gave a 1 star rating with the word "free?" that genuinely hurts
Hey awesome app
Can you provide the unlock code.
Thank you
