So I have LineageOS 14.1 in my SM-G800F (galaxy s5 mini) and I love the ambient display feature, but it is not in settings
When I search for ambient display in settings, there is an option, but if I select it, it just takes me to display settings but then it's not there... any help?

I'm new to Gnex, came from a Galaxy S Advance.
I noticed that the screen brightness from my Gnex on "Auto" is very dim - At least with Paranoidandroid 3.15 and AK Diamond 044 Stable.
Trickster MOD helped me to correct the colors, but not the brightness.
I found a lot of threads regarding this issue, also bugreports and blogposts, some referred me to apps like "lux" or "velis" to adjust the levels.
Now as Paranoid has that function built in "Settings -> Display -> Brightness -> Adjust" I wonder if someone else hassled with those controls and has some good results.
Here are my values, they are better than stock but not tested in an environment > 200lux.
Thank you for your shares!
Apps like Velis or YAAB are more intuitive for tuning auto-brightness than these CM type controls IMHO.

well, i dont like those apps, at least yaab runs as service in backgound and if it is running you are not able to set brightness with the brightness toggle in toolbar menu. But I admit it is laboriously (strange word... thx google) to set those values with the built in controls.
Hello there, I have two questions: Is there a way to enable ambient display with gestures on cm13? And where(which site) fo send feature request for cm13?
Is there a way to brighten the ambient display, such as the clock and notifications that appear? I can barely see it in the sun. I had no problem seeing my moto z play in the sun.

If you go into settings / display there is a brightness slider that you can use to manually set the screen at a brighter level. I'm not sure if that recalibrates the base Android uses in its ambient settings or not. If you just are used to a brighter screen and find that the ambient setting continues to make the screen dimmer than you like after using the slider you can just turn the ambient display feature off entirely. I personally like the feature but a lot of people don't and just turn it off.
There are also apps in the Play Store that allow you to manually adjust the screen brightness without going into the settings menu, if you want to have easier control over it.

I know that the AOKP ROM allows alot of modifications to the ambient display brightness settings. Other ROMs may do the same but I know and use the settings on AOKP. It's a very good ROM! Native settings don't have the options.
AOKP and Pixel Dust are the two roms I know of that have this option.
You don't need a ROM to kick in higher brightness on auto brightness.
Just root and install ElementalX kernel or one based on it.
Then install this widget and once toggled, it will give you way more max brightness on auto brightness.

I noticed that my wife's phone has significantly brighter ambient display. They have identical settings as far as I can tell. So I'm not sure but I would love to find out the answer cause I want mine brighter too
Go to advanced display settings and toggle off the option to wake the screen with new notifications, then turn off the lift to view gesture. Your ambient display should brighten significantly.

Not sure when this happened - I've been doing updates from 5.1.7 - 9.0.0 - 9.0.1 - 9.0.2 - but Ambient Display in Settings does nothing, i.e. it doesn't offer a switch on/off, nor does the Lift Up option appear. I know it was there are some point recently. Any suggestions how to bring it back?

I'm on v9.0.2 and Ambient Display options are available. Do you have any mods installed?
My own stupidity! I'd been trying out other ambient display apps., and had frozen the internal AOD in Titanium!

So I've updated my Moto G7 Plus to LineageOS 19.1 from 18.1 and everything works as expected so far (using MindTheGapps).
Only thing is, that there is no no visible option for setting the colors as seen on various Android 12 screenshots around the web.
What I refer to is Settings --> Wallpaper & Styles. It seems as should there be an option under the "Change Wallpaper" for choosing "Wallpaper Colors" and "Basic Colors", but I do not have any of those options, only "Change Wallpaper".
Does anyone know how to get the appropriate color settings to work or a workaround to change the color not depending on the wallpaper?
Cheers

Same issue on my Pixel 3. And, sadly, my research has only yielded a reddit thread reporting the same issue:
https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/udey02
My accent colors were originally a lovely shade of Pepto Bismol pink, but I found a lock screen and home screen wallpaper combo that gives me a baby blue instead. Which I suppose is an improvement of sorts...
I have the same problem on my OnePlus 5T.
Installed it on 5T, no option to choose an accent color. Is this a bug? Why install a custom rom if there's nothing you can customize anymore?
Also can't mute the audio just by tapping the "music note" icon when I press volume button, and can't tap the "bell" icon just to scroll through the "vibrate" and "silent" modes. One of the most time saving features they manage to break... I really don't get who gets to decide these changes. Why would someone do that?
-edit- Any of you get double tap to wake to work?
Hi @Kimpfimp and the others,
Also the same problem on my device, Motorola G60 with LineageOS 19.1 , options for color are missing, so it seems I'm not the only one. I'm looking into it, I really want that option back..
@Lex_Michdeandroid double tap is not working on some LineageOS roms but will hopefully be solved in the next release...

Same here with Poco F3 (alioth) And LineageOS-19.1-20220611
It's because LineageOS 19.1 doesn't actually have the ability to select an accent color, period, no matter what device you own. It'll always choose the color from your wallpaper; you have no choice in the matter. Maybe there are plans to re-introduce accent colors, but I haven't seen any evidence of that on the LineageOS Gerrit.
