Android stock ambient display on Oreo?

Hello guys,
I am on stock Oreo, is it possible please to get somehow the stock ambient display instead of Moto display? I have read that on some phones disabling moto app will bring back ambient display, but it didnt work out for me.
Thank you for your answers

I don't think that there's a way to have stock ambient display with StockROM by Motorola. However, most of the CustomROMs have this ability.
Btw, a little bit off-topic.. but aren't you from Slovakia too?

Each CustomROM that I tried had some bugs. Unfortunately, all of them had slightly disorted sound during a call in comparison with StockROM. However, these ones (mentioned below) are the best in my opinion:
7.0 - debloated stock https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/rom-debloated-optimized-t3722396
7.1.2 - LineageOS 14.1 https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/7-1-x-lineageos-14-1-moto-g5-t3611973
I would recommend you to use this build of LOS 14.1, if you are interested https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GO7i7h1QQcD8oY3uUBr4a2u1gJzlRkzk/view. I faced a huge problem - apps like Snapchat, Instagram or Messenger started to freeze and force close randomly, but only with august 2018 build (the latest one). Reboot didn't help at all, reinstall of LOS or crashing apps fixed problem just temporarily. Flashing build from june 2018 (link mentioned in this paragraph) seems to be a permanent fix.
If you are running stock Oreo, you have to downgrade to Nougat first. Otherwise, your fingerprint scanner will not work with any Nougat based CustomROM (idk about Oreo ones ). How to downgrade a Moto device without getting hardbrick? It's simple - make sure, yours device's bootlaoder is properly unlocked. Then, flash everything except gpt and bootloader to avoid hardbrick while downgrading. Running "fastboot erase modemst1" and "fastboot erase modemst2" commands wipes IMEI, so exclude them also.
8.1.0 - AOSPExtended 5.4 https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/rom-aospextended-5-0-t3710925 with Alize v10 kernel https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W9s2Wd52buDLglqOX2cEsgHTD0qWFHbv/view.
I have already tried this combination and there was no problem while taking photos and recording videos using Footej Camera.
If you decide to try this ROM with gapps installed alongside, follow this tutorial before the first boot https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/how-to-repair-bootloop-oreo-roms-t3791189. Otherwise, your phone will be stuck in bootloop.

Thank you for your comprehensive guide to custom roms
It's shame there isnt any custom rom with everything working fine. I think I will go back to Lineage 14.1 and then buy a new phone. Motos arent the same since Lenovo took them.

[FIX] [AOSP] Improve audio recording in video and calls

After devs changed fluencetype to fluence in build.prop for low incall volume, noise cancellation is so agressive. This fix solve distortion that you can find in your recordings.
- Tested in firmware 9.5.30
- Tested in Pixel Experience CAF and Vortex
Instructions:
- Download NoiseSuppresionMod.zip
- Reboot to recovery
- Flash NoiseSuppresionMod.zip
- Reboot to system
It MAYBE works in MIUI.
If devs want to fix it in their ROMs, they need to replace audio_platform_info and mixer_paths in /vendor/etc
Thanks to @Zile995 . He solved it in mido and helped me to do it in lavender.
Also, thanks to @letsmakecakes. He helped me to make flashable zip.

whats this for?

Wish I had this a couple of weeks ago when I was at Primavera Sound festival! All the audio of the videos i recorded was terrible :/
Anyway, can anyone confirm this works on stock (rooted) MIUI? Thanks!

I flashed it but have yet to test it. Before flashing this I made a phone call and I could barely hear the person on the phone. That's odd because my hearing is amazing.

Thanks for the amazing work!! Nothing try in miui stock?

Hello to all,
Thank you for your work.
Someone knows if on Lineage Rom it works this patch?
Thank you in advance.

Thanks for the mod, it's working on Lineage but the recorded audio is quite low in terms of volume.
If it could be possible to increase it a little bit at least it would be perfect, thanks again!

Hello, i got some questions about this patch:
1. Do i need to root my device to apply it (flash it)?
2. Someone already tried on a Stock ROM with MIUI?
3. Sorry for asking this but, can someone explain thoroughly the process for applying this kind of fixes/patches?
Thank you friends.

Not necessarily, but you have to unlock it in order to have a custom recovery
2. Someone already tried on a Stock ROM with MIUI?
Not that I know of
3. Sorry for asking this but, can someone explain thoroughly the process for applying this kind of fixes/patches?
It's in the OP, as I already said you must have a custom recovery which means unlocked bootloader
Thank you friends.

@danielh1402 could make the previous file available, named lavender-aosp-audio-fix.zip This new file didn't work, but the old one worked. thank you!

Which exact changes were made on the mixer_paths and audio_platform_info files?
I'm trying to fix a similar audio issue on my Mi 9 SE, if you could tell me the changes it may help me a lot.
Thanks.

On Pixel Experience Official this is stoping the video (and sometimes closing the camera) while recording. How do i do to uninstall it?

On Pixel Experience doesn't work, the recorded audio is still awful. And mostly it stops the video recording.
Yesterday I was watching a video recorded with the smartphone and I noticed that the microphones are very sensitive.. maybe they're simply bad adjusted and all we need to do is to lower the gain a little bit.. I don't know. Still hoping for a V2 for this mod.

Tried on Havoc OS. Everything became much worse after flashing this "improvement", nobody could make out what I was saying.
As factory reset did not work and there is no option to uninstall the mod I had to do flashing of a new os with dalvik, cashe and data wiping.
So be aware!

Thanks! This mod work fine in Lineage OS 16 for Redmi Note 6 Pro. The mic volume was very low. Now is great.

Not working in Havoc 3.4. Made the situation worse. No option to uninstall it.
Doing reinstall of entire ROM now.

sound problem lineage os pie on land device

Hello everybody, I need some help with a problem which can t solve. I use lineage os for long time on my redmi 3s (land) and since from switching from oreo to pie, I have a annoying problem. The in call sound, in a phone conversation, is way too high, and its not about the volume steps. If volume is set to maximum from volume key the sound distorted.
So I did some research and I find out that solving this problem need to manualy edit some lines in the file mixer_paths.xml. But I can t find this file, I have two files alike, mixer_paths_qrd_sku.xml and sound_trigger_mixer_paths.xml. What to do?
And, to mention that this problem appears on every pie rom based on lineage i ve tried.
Thank You!

Hi, one plus already shared that u can go back to its previous version but for that u have to wipe full data from your device. Try to downgrade and then update through oxygen updater. It will help you download full update for your rooted device.

2 times this has been asked in a forum of loads of people. Do the people it has happened to think they have done everything right? as I myself would look and say I form a rather small percentage with what happened to me and come to the conclusion it must be the way I installed it and try installing it properly without anything else and work my way through.
The last post was days ago being 2 threads down and clearly stated it had to do with magisk for that person.
So common sense and a bit of reading would make you think it's obviously a module or magisk version.
Why don't people read and see no one else is really suffering from this problem so just putting up oos10 flash and camera broken doesn't help. Maybe at least put what you did and used step by step so anyone who did want to help you doesn't get shot down as it wasn't the quickfix answer you wanted.
PS. by that I mean what modules do u have installed and what mods have you done as having magisk modules can cause all sorts of problems and edexposed in an update from 9-10 is rather stupid thing to do seeing as half the modules used in 9 don't support 10 unless I'm reading wrong and you installed edexposed and correct modules for your software afterwords.

I'm facing same issue
Since Oos 9.0.11 the camera and flashlight isn't working
Tried all flashing method but give same issue
Tried all custom rom where it using Oosbeta blob-Oos stable blob will give same error
The only one custom rom where the camera working is msm xtended

xt-1922-9 no sound from speaker, tried all custom rom and cannot flash stock rom, HELP PLEASE!

I tried all custom roms possible and no one have sound, only with earphones.
I'm pretty sure it's note mo phone defective because was working before and didnt drop on the floor.
Any help would be immensely appreciated.
Thanks.

I have the same phone and have discovered the same problem after flashing any of the Android 11 custom ROM. No sound from speaker/ringer/media (except headphone jack). I found one suggested solution here, the last reply to the AOSPK ROM thread. The solution was to place 4 files into vendor/etc. I tried that and sure enough I got sound back with those ROMs but it broke the phone call function, couldn't make calls, dialers just ended call as soon as I tried to connect. Maybe this will work for someone else. Maybe someone else has a better solution. I'll try just replacing one file at a time and see if I can figure it out. If you find a solution let us know.

Oh and the easiest way to get back to stock is to use the Motorola Rescue assistant tool here. Just put your phone into bootloader mode and the Motorola tool will detect the phone, download the latest stock firmware and restore the phone.

Okay, I found the fix. From stock I installed AOSPExtended ROM from the Moto G6 Play forum. Initially everything seemed to work but no audio.
The fix reported in my last post, linked to the Telegram group was:
"For sound, add these 4 files to vendor/etc"
mixer_paths.xml
audio_platform_info.xml
audio_platform_info_jeter_p0.xml
mixer_paths_jeter_p0.xml
"
Copying all 4 files caused audio to work but cell calling broke.
Copy only the first 2 files without 'jeter_p0' in the name and audio was fixed and nothing else broke. Happy now. I assume this will fix the same problem with all the Android 11 roms I installed that caused this problem.

I'm a n00b so I hope you can please excuse my ignorance but how did you copy the files to that folder? And how did you get the files from the source? Also does it fix the rotation? as I have a rotation problem as well
OK its within TWRP didn't know that, file manager

Hi, friend.
I tried your solution, but it did not work on my phone, jeter xt-1922-9, i flashed pixel experience plus or lineage os 18.1, no one working on audio. no sound incoming call, no sound on youtube video.
