Can't we just enable always on display? Aren't there any hack to enable it?
And if it's
Battery will not be able to stand 1Hour at least i think
Come on you own smartwatch
Keep raising your hand every few minutes, it will stay on always then. Problem solved.

No i think i will go for at least one day.. See other AMOLED watch from xiaomi.. they go for 7-10 days with always on display.. And compared to that mi band 4 can go for 1 day at least

You know he was kidding, right?
AOD function must have support not only from the software, but also HW. In theory, you could enable AOD on Mi Band 4, but you'd risk AMOLED burn in and most probably very high power consumption. If you really must have this feature, buy a band/watch which supports it properly and out of the box.

It should be possible theoretically.
The latest firmware (1.0.6.24) has option change the display duration (Auto screen off time). But, it only let's to choose between 5 to 10 seconds. So, hopefully, the firmware update can take care of increasing the time to longer period (infinite).
A very light watch face with minimum color (black and white) theme should take care of the quick battery drain.
I think, is cool to have this option.

That's what i am thinking... It's possible actually although some are not agreeing with it..
That's nice that you think it, but I'm sure you would blame Xiaomi for adding this feature if it caused persistent image retention problem, desaturated colors over time and maybe some other HW defects due to prolonged use of OLED panel.
Yes, the burn-in could be a problem as well.
May be we can come up with some solution like the moving display (like the ones in old screensavers on CRT) or the one in Glitch watchface and UI (given below).

Is there any way to set the AOD to turn on only when you pick up the phone? (like in Iphones).
good question, i have no idea, maybe someone..

I don't think so but if you cover the proximity sensor for around 15 seconds or so it turns off the display until it's not covered. I got into the habit of facing it face down to trigger it or covering the top part of the display with something

Don't think it can be done so yet. Something like double tap on the screen to wake would have been better than AOD all the time sucking battery.
I found a thing and I am currently trying it out. In the AOD settings you can adjust the brightness yourself (rather than leaving it on auto-brightness).
It has 4 levels. I have set it to level 2 (level 1 was almost not visible during day light).
Up to now I see much lower battery consumption from AOD. Will keep testing and report.

There are tilt to wake apps in the play store.... I could not get them to work right....
I did find one super cool option to help me solve this issue. Its buried deep in accessibility settings. Its the "interaction and dexterity option." It will allow you to wake the screen by waving your hand over it. Yes, this is deeply buried but one of the most useful features of the phone.
Sure, this is not what you are asking but I thought I would throw it out there so you have an option.

Yes, sorry I meant to say to wake the phone when you pick it up. But to take it a step further it would be nice to have an option to just open AOD when you pick the phone up.

Here is my experience.
I had no screen shadow or burn in on stock for more than 6 months. I decided to root the phone and bam I got the screen shadow. I had to set RGB colors to 91% each or 233 of 256 and that works every time (EX kernel). Any higher and I'd see very light screen retention.
I had some battery issues recently and wanted to test stock kernel again to see if it is kernel related. So I went back to stock without locking the bootloader also in the hopes that it would fix the screen retention. The screen retention is still there.
I am using two apps from PlayStore to fix it on stock:
ScreenAdjuster and Bluelight filter for eye Care. They both work and I like the ScreenAdjuster better. Can't really tell there is a difference in contrast while for the latter (Bluelight) there is a small tint. Set all the values to 5% and have it start on boot. (For Bluelight you need to set it to 6%and pick the dark grey). Then hide either app from notifications and menu. Use only one of these of course.
The screen retention with any of these tricks will go away after about 10-15 min or reboot.
Before my warranty runs out in October, I will lock the bootloader and try to get it repaired.
PS: my battery performance is only slightly better on stock and I will probably go back to Invicta soon. I miss substratum.
Edit: kunalgupta1, anytime the values go back to default, the screen retention comes back over a few minutes. As long as it is set to 233 it will be gone.
Cheers

cool, thank you.
I see the charging indicator and percentage is always on now when the Tab is charging, is there a way to get the clock on as well? Like the phones? I saw a thread about developer options, but that just keeps the screen awake.
I was wondering if it can show the charging battery percentage, why can't we show the clock?? Am I missing something?
Thanks
Forget it.
Always on AMOLED | Edge Lighting is the best alternative with many customizations.

Thanks. Looks like your recommend is working, does it move the time around the screen? Not that I'm too worried about burn in on an almost three year old tablet, but still. The settings aren't the cleanest, so maybe I missed it.

"Always on AMOLED" has all needed features like "Auto movement" and "Time Rules".
However, there is always the risk of burn in!
You should use AOD intermittently.
I have just purchased this 10t
It is normal? Ghosting
That does not seem normal for any new phone. I would seek a replacement under warranty.

It must be said that this happened after a 13-minute CPU stress test Now I tried so many times and that problem doesn't happen anymore What do I do?

Don't worry about it if the ghosting is now gone. This is probably due to temporary burn in caused by high brightness screen on. It just a temporary thing. However, the next time you're doing a stress test or something that requires opening the screen for a longer period (i must say 10 minutes is somehow too much considering you're doing a stress test with full brightness), reduce the brightness down to 60-70% is a way to go. (I got this temporary burn in on my OPPO Find X3 Pro too but it disappeared after a while so better not worry about that.

Hi, I just got the notification that the Android 13 update is ready for my phone. But I'm not really sure if it's worth to go through with the update. I wouldn't want to wait another 6 months for stupid fixes needed. If anyone was brave enough to install it let me know how your experience has been so far. Thanks!
CONFIRMED BUGS FOUND BY USERS AFTER THE UPDATE:
Screen flickering when using auto refresh rate. The screen quickly changes between 120hz and lower causing flickering especially on darker tones (from grey to black). This is almost certain to happen, be ready if you choose to go through with the update!
Increased contrast. Screen constrast has been increased requiring increased brightness for outdoor visibility. Poor viewing performance in bright day light and overall darker hues at lower brightness levels
Charging issues. Phones are not charging correctly when turned on, constantly disconnecting. Charging when the phone is off is the only solution. Wireless charging is also affected and unusable due to overheating that stops the phone from chaeging
Moto Secure folder locked. Moto Secure folders cause the phone to crash and can't be unlocked anymore. Do not use Moto Secure folders to avoid data loss!
Ready For broken. If you try to connect your smartphone to the TV no output is displayed
HDR video playback is broken. When trying to play back HDR video from any app it shows as SDR. No brightness increase as it was in Android 12.
POSSIBLE ISSUES:
Overall performance degradation. Some users are experiencing slow downs and an increased heat output from the device
Audio playback not working. Some users are reporting audio not working after boot. Startup sound works as usual
Increased battery consumption
Connectivity issues might appear during calls or mobile data usage. Reports are not clear about specific conditions in which these issue appears
Screen flashes white when waking the device through the fingerprint reader
Fingerprint reader breaks and might show up as not working in the built in diagnostic software
MISSING FEATURES AFTER THE UPDATE:
Dolby app lost the custom EQ setting
WORKAROUNDS:
A device reset might get rid of most of the issues, beside the flashing screen when using auto refresh rate
To fix the auto refresh rate it is possible to lower the maximum refresh rate from 120Hz to 90Hz. Thanks to @mansell68 for posting it in the thread. Download the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=by4a.setedit22 and change the parameter "peak_refresh_value" to 90. This will solve the issue for now and let the phone switch between 60 and 90Hz correctly.

My friend have the edge 30 pro, after update he had the same issue.
I told him to completely reset the phone after update, but he didn't do it.

I update my edge about 2 days ago and this is the only issue that i found with, just like says on Lenovo's forums I set the refresh rate on 60hz for the moment until we get an update.
@giacomowrc thank you very much for reporting this issue! I knew there would be something wrong with the update. Motorola just doesn't care anymore.
@iOrizon thank you a lot too for reporting back on the issue. So there's no amount of resetting it to factory that would fix this issue?
@MeltingSnowman tbh this issue doesn't affect me so much so I prefer to wait for a fix instead of reset my phone. There is no a mayor issue that force me to do that, for me at least, and in general I think that is a solid update.
I update it yesterday.
Everything is perfect, no issues, 144hz and automatic refresh working.
Very Stanley and fluid.
With all turner on on the night ONLY consumes 6% of battery on 12 hours.
Great job from Motorola.
Waiting for official a13 update.
@giacomowrc @iOrizon @almmpt you might be having two different releases? The one is asking me to update to is T1SH33.35-23-20. Also I think I got one of the first batch of units since I got it soon after launch. So I might be more affected in case they different hardware revisions that act differently depending on the software.
Also 6% on a 12h night is a bit much to be honest. I wish they addressed the incorrect scheduling that kills this phone's battery but doesn't seem to be the case.

The wifi and bluetooth pairing with the smartwatch might explain the battery drain, makes sense.
Thanks for the screenshot. But I'm seeing that your play store security updates are stuck to last year and the security patches for the OS are from february. Do they don't get updated with Android 13?

Bruh, this is so stupid! So the security patch is basically rolled back one month. This doesn't make sense. Thanks for the insight.
I updated a couple of days ago. I feel like the battery drain increased, but maybe it'll bounce back? I definitely like the split data/wifi buttons in the notification - I like turning off unneeded services.
I loved the side bar in 12 and it's still great, but I definitely don't see a reason to give it a permanent on-screen indicator in 13 (the half-transparent bar near the power button). It makes a visual mess if I'm using something that has a scroll bar. Let us turn it off...

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I was concerned that they would make a mess of it and it happens to be the case, adding to the screen flickering an increased battery drain.
So there's no option to disable the indicator and keep the double tap on the power button to make that side bar appear? What a bummer...
P.S. if you don't mind me asking you have no screen flickering right? Did you get an early batch of the phone or a later one? I'm trying to figure out if they changed hardware revisions for the display and that's causing the flickering. Also any weird colour shifts appearing at night? Like having a darker tint at low/lowest brightness settings?

I got the phone the moment it was available in EU - a little over a year ago. Didn't notice anything extraordinary when it comes to colors.
Will try adaptive refresh rate for a few days.
