Hi,
I have seen some videos reviews of the oneplus 5t and have caught glimpses of some sort of always on display.
does it support always on display? as I can't see it mentioned anywhere.
Thanks

No. It has an "Ambient Display" that lights up when you get a notification or if you have it set to light up with a double tap or lift to wake.
An Always-On-Display would be nice though, especially with this screen.

Hi
There is an option on the camera menu to improve the visibility of the screen when taking pictures outside.
1. is there a way to force the setting to on always ?
2. can this option being used for other applications beside camera ?
regards,
Filip
Did you mean that the screen is too dim when you're in sunlight?
Double check that power saving is off as that dims the screen and also that brightness is set to max. Sadly though it will still be a falling of the phone. It's just not quite bright enough.

Click the settings button in Camera and make sure "Outdoor visibility" is switched ON.

This is a very important question for me, for those who have received the phone, or will receive it today, please can you check if the notifications will show as ambient (screen black with notifications text only for a while) when receiving a new notification..? I know there is an always on display feature, but was wondering if with it, still the new notifications texts will show on a black screen for a while like the ambient display feature in the old pixel..
Really appreciate if someone can answer..
Anyone?
By now lots have received it, can someone give me an answer please..?
Yes as long as you have ambient display enabled it stays on with notifications under the clock.

At 1.13 you see the ambient notification and the aod on the right sided pixel 2 xl
Yes. It's just like the original pixel. When the notification comes on you get the full thing but afterwards you would get the clock and icon. Same thing on the Pixel 2 except the clock and icon doesn't need the device to be picked up.

You're very welcome mate
It's actually not all black, but I am seeing a little color (1st gen Pixel was all white?) when ambient comes up during the initial notification, then it all goes back to Always On without the detail of the notification.

Actually i have the OG pixel on the side, and i remember that the title color of ambient notification matches the app (whatsapp then green) but rest is white..
Still waiting for my pixel 2 xl to arrive and see the difference..
I know this isn't really light bleed, given its an AMOLED screen... But when on the home screen with a black image, there is what looks like light bleed across the top of the screen. This only happens on the home screen. Any ideas?
I have the same effect up top... It's like the notification area is glowing a bit so you know it's there.

If you took a screenshot of your phone's screen and the effect is there, it means it's not your hardware. Screenshots don't actually capture what you see through the panel. Just like you can't see burn in with a screenshot you can't see light bleed or any kind of panel deformation as well.

Yes, I understand it's not hardware... But it's an issue none the less...
You can see it in the top of the image I attached in my original post. It is only persent on the home screen, and it's really annoying. It's extremely obvious with a black wallpaper.
Yeah it's that particular wallpaper of Pluto or Earth. I get the same thing. In fact, try sliding over to the left where Google news feed is and put it in between screens. You can see it sliding to the top. It's even more pronounced when you switch the display theme to daylight instead of automatic.
In other words, Google has to fix their wallpapers. Nothing to see here. It's not light bleed and I would change the title of this thread to make it less confusing.

It is not just the Google wallpapers... It is literally any wallpaper that's dark enough.
Then it's the Google launcher. The point is there is nothing wrong with the display.

I'm well aware is not my hardware. Read my original post, I clearly said I know it's not the display. Light bleed is not possible on an AMOLED screen... And also not selective to the home screen only.
Just because it's software doesn't mean it's not an issue..
It's not a bug, it's here to prevent Burn-in. It's also visible on the bottom. I saw it with a grey wallpaper, I didn't see the line of the nav bar but on the home screen I did. Like I said, it's here to prevent Burn-in.

This is correct. It is there for a reason from Google.
Hi guys
I was thinking if it is possible to use finger print scanner LED as a notification LED? I know it may not be currently possible but just floating the idea for the devs who make things possible all the time
I know the LED is huge to be used as notification LED but some people would love to have an LED instead of a ringtone or vibration alerts, thanks in advance for any help in this regard
I don't know if this is possible but this is a fantastic idea.
If this is actually possible it would be awesome!
Great idea, but is there really a separate LED ? I had always assumed that the FP uses the green lighting from the display itself....

Yes I thought it was like that.
I think it doesn't matter if there's a separate LED to light up the display or part of the screen itself is used as a notification LED, but I think all possibilities are there, to choose the color, random colors each time or per app, position on the screen etc...
I don't really see the point in using those specific pixels as a notification LED when any other pixels on the display work just as well. And if anything, you'd want to avoid lighting up the fingerprint pixels too much since they are being used more at high brightness and therefore more susceptible to burn-in.

I want one to do like Samsung's edge lighting. That with Pixel Pulse would be perfect.
Amy work on this?
I disabled fps on my 6t because of the annoyingly high brightness of this green circle when your finger is close!
I don't think there is a led, I saw a video where they open the 6t and access the sensor module, it's just a camera sensor under the screen, the amoled brightness is boosted in this particular part of the screen, that's all.
Thanks God they didn't use a laser light, half the people would go (really) blind.
You can use an app like noled to simulate a led anywhere on your screen.
What about this app?

Yes, that is the app that a lot of us have been using with no issues. You just have to go into the settings and tweak it to your likings.

When i lift my pixel 3xl, the Ambient display just lasts for less than a second and the lock screen shows up.
Anyone with the same issue.
Please help.
It's the new changes they made on Android 10, probably for pixel 4 with face unlock features.

Yes its there ****ty ne implementation and i hate it, ambient display only works when set to always on, the other settings like double tap to wake and tilt to wake just shows the lock screen, and notifications show up minus the wallpaper unless you tilt or tap, this is googles idea of new features, mess with the old ones and call it a new feature, remove stock android features because they are better than ours.
