Idk about rom but I'm gonna tell you that always on display on LCD screen is not efficient.
The whole screen stays lit so it consumes battery equal to ehen you're using your device, also it keeps the cpu awake.
Its just more harm than good :/

For battery, I don't really care because the battery on whyred is really great. When I go to bed, I still have 70% left

well, the battery would be significantly worse if the display would be alway on, it doesnt make any sense for non amoled displays, other than that, there is a risk of burn in or other damage if display would be on all the time, its just stupid to do this and i doubt that anyone will ever include this to any rom

not sure if RN5 can do it. my friend tried to port to LG G4 from G5 he says that kernels need to support it or it wont work. and as others says its more harm then good.
Thanks you guys for your comments, I think I will pass on the always on display. I don't want to ruin my device
It's possible.. because I have used always on display on Moto g first generation with AOSPExtended Oreo ROM but later on developer removed that option.

Is there a way to force the watch face to remain in full color without slipping into ambient mode?
I'm interested in trying this, even though I'm sure it will have a negative effect on battery life.
Download StayLit Wear from the Play Store and set it to Indefinitely.
Just use a watchface app like Watchmaker, and make/modify your own color ambient watchface. You can choose what to enable/disable on the ambient. It's probably a good idea to turn off a sweeping seconds hand, as the OLED display will take a battery hit when it has to change pixels on the screen.
I have my own face that's color on ambient. It looks identical to the awake face, except the seconds hand is missing. Lasts about 2 days.

Good info guys, thank you!
I'll give StayLit Wear a shot.
Having an ambient face that looks identical without the seconds hand seems awesome! All the faces I download for Watchmaker seem to have an ambient mode that just freezes the seconds hand in place but it is still visible. I hate that.
I know either of these options will cause me to take a hit on battery, but I am not concerned with trying to get more than a day out of the watch.
StayLit Wear worked exactly how I wanted it to. Unfortunately, it was destroying my battery. I'm using the Dark Suit watch face, which doesn't even have a second hand, and I was losing a percent of battery every couple minutes.
I didn't think leaving the screen on would have such a drastic effect on battery life. With stock behavior, I can get maybe 30 hours with max brightness. I was hoping I could just get through one normal 15-16 hour awake day with the screen always on. It seemed like I wouldn't get anywhere close to that based on the 30 minutes I used StayLit.

Well when you put it that way, it makes perfect sense. I was thinking about it strictly from the perspective of actual screen battery use. I didn't even consider the method that StayLit probably uses to keep the screen lit...a wakelock!!
So it seems that using watchmaker like @firehawk suggested makes the most sense. It should still allow the phone to sleep, but still display full colors.

Does it cause a wakelock that severely drains battery? Or does it just keep the full color face while allowing the watch to still sleep?

Most likely your watch won't last 7 hours. At best. It's because of the current technology by the end of this year there will be smart watches lasting more than a couple days and the ALWAYS on screen (no ambient) with the new snapdragon 2100 made especially for wearables.

Just go to customize watch, select the seconds hand and choose bright only. And it's gone!

Not natively. Right now the only way I know of is to install Accubattery.
or you can use battery widget reborn.

Google finally added this in Android P DP1. Battery percentage is now displayed on ambient display at the bottom of the screen.

Always on display uses extra battery so I personally don't use it. However it does look nice but endurance is what i need not looks

sorry to bring up an old thread, but i just got this phone. when you have always on display turned on, but its in your pocket its not always on? If that's the case I shouldn't be too worried about battery life.

Your display will turn off when in your pocket. It will also turn off when the phone is face down.
Recd My u12+
ask me anything will try my best to answer
What is your location for a start, and what provider or carrier you use?
I know at 1080p, there's a combination of OIS and EIS but at 4k, is there an option to turn on EIS?
What's screen brightness like? Can you compare to any current phones on market??

I was very excited about it - more so after the release of both the OnePlus 6 and the Xiaomi Mi 8, neither of which pleased me.
How thick is the U 12 plus in the hand?
Hi, is there option to set default memmory to external sdcard (microsd)

the u12 plus does feel a little thick and heavy than many similar size phones. but its not something that will make you uncomfortable. i got to used to it in a day or so. OP6 is definitely lighter.
I really am enjoying the phone and the squeeze gestures do make so much sense in real life. the camera is also pretty awesome, i dont do much videos but photos are great and pretty color accurate.

Is there another phone you could relate the vibration to? How does it feel? Like a buzz or thud?
How has the dynamic range performance been at night? Does it tend to blowout lights if you don't tap to expose? I notice this in the 10 and U11 and I'm wondering if HTC has improved it.
How are the fake buttons in practice? Right now it sounds like it's very unreliable.
How is standby battery life? This also sounds like a major issue.

the vibration is pretty decent i must say. Doesnt rattle like the Razer Phone. But the haptic feedback on edge sense is very good close to Apple's
At night shots, its hit or miss. sometimes it takes stunning photos sometimes it is as average as my OP6. Yes it tends to blowour lights even on day shots sometimes.

to my surprise i love the fake buttons and the haptic feedback! only gripe is its little too sensitive for my liking
Battery life on WiFi is good! If your mostly on WiFi you will get 5-6 Hours SOT over 18 Hours
Standby on LTE for me isnt great. Yesterday i was mostly on LTE and got 4 Hours SOT 16 hours total usage with 5% remaining
Not too shody but i think 3500Mah should do little better
Is it possible to press two of the fake buttons simultaneously? ? Or you have an idea how it OS possible to boot into Bootloader/Download Mode without adb?
Compared to op6 is it as smooth and fast? As I understand from your post above the op6 has a better battery life.
Q on the LED notification --- is it multi-colored (even if we have to use a third party app such as lightflow) or is it only green & orange?

OP6 is smoother more often than not. But day to day usage there is nothing different. Haven't had any hiccups so far. Battery life is about the same as OP6. My OP6 on LTE almost gives me same battery life. On WiFi HTC U12+ gives better SOT than OP6. Will post some stats tomorrow.
Has anyone tried out this app yet?
I installed yesterday and its pretty awesome. It seamlessly adds a AOD to our phones that is similar to the galaxy phones. It has tons of optimizations from edge lighting, to notifications, to even having the fingerprint work while the AOD is on. and the UI is way better then the other apps I have tried.
I just installed it last night and it has been going good so far. I have not messed with the edge lighting as much tho. and the battery doesn't seem to be to drastic but I will update after I have it running for a while.
I am not associated with the app, just wanted to share my findings for an app that could bring us our beloved AOD to our phones with better UI and functionality.

Beautiful app with tons of settings. Will try this out and hope the battery consumption is not that much. Thank you for the hint.

Yea, its not perfect, I found it works if you keep your finger on the sensor after the AOD goes away.
So after 10 hours, it is really eating the battery, but I have the setting so it's not considering my battery. I'm pretty sure if I tweaked it and let it run a day without messing around with the app this 30% would be lower. But non the less that is still pretty high.
Nice
Giving this app a try, so far lots to play with, the additional features are less than a regular cup of coffee from you favourite outlet.
The Oneplus notifications are p**s poor so nothing to loose.
7 hours overnight with flight mode: 19% battery.
Normally it would be 3-4%
But the rainbow notification thing was turned on. I'll try it again without rainbow notification border

Yea, I am going to see how much it pulls today with some settings changed and not messing around with the app as much.
For me the app looks great, but battery consumption is really high. Checking some settings, but I think it's not possible to keep the consumption down.
Battery drain was still about the same without rainbow notification.
Deleted it because it's not worth it for me

I turned on raise to wake and glance display to see if that helps, but the same for me, the battery consumption is really high, sad because its a really decent app and a nice looking AOD.
Power drain is bit high.
Yes but you have big SOT
Considering the app isn't a system app then the battery drain is normal. Glance display for me does not drain anything. Having the app on 24/7 will drain power because the screen is on. New update just came out with doze mode option for root users...I'm going to see if it improves battery while app is on without glance display.
Best free app for aod but it's a big battery drain
For me, it seems that the possibility to extend edge light to top real edge is missing. I get the edge light to get only under the top bar and not to the top edge of the bar.

You can download a 3rd party app. But that's gonna kill your battery. AOD is not recommended for LCD devices.
found one it's ok battery it doesn't matter as huawei Pro's has this feature and it obviously draning battery more as well on them so it is equal ..

It could drain more on LCD devices as you are still using the whole backlit display as opposed to OLED that you only use the needed part for AOD. But still, AOD is a cool feature to have
