Lightflow

Seen reports of people saying Lightflow messes with Ambient Display. Can anyone confirm this?

This should be in Q&A section. Anyway, I have both Ambient Display and Light Flow on. Light Flow does not mess with AD, and works quite well with it. Light flow colors work. I have the Pro version of Light Flow.

Sorry, the question is about an app so I thought goes here? Anyway. How does your AB work? Does it pulse randomly (like Moto X) or only when lifted or notification?

I used light flow pro and it forced screen wakes for a few minutes without a notification being present then it calms down. I uninstalled it and ambient display stays off unless there is a notification

Got it. Without Lightflow, there are only 3-4 pulses. With, it never ends.

Ah, I noticed that too but hadn't put that down to Light Flow.
I have a GWR, so disabled Ambient Display anyway.
Has anyone got the Sleep function to work?
No matter what Light Flow settings I use - at night, the LED continues to light up my room, so I have to leave the phone face-down at the moment...
I've been emailing the developer about it - but he's waiting for his 5X to turn up (as he's also ordered a 6P, he has to wait for that to turn up in the same delivery...)

I have enabled notification light through Settings and am able to generate a white light flash (repeating) when gmail receives. Has anyone noted fingerprint security have any negative impacts on notifications like this (more curiosity than anything)?
Admittedly its been some time since I have had to use lightflow pro; good app, just been awhile so I may be rusty on settings I am betting.

Lightflow is one of my standard apps. Unfortunately, it was draining my battery on the 5x regardless of the settings I had set. Looking forward to an update after the dev can optimize for MM/5X/6P.

Anyone else having an issue with lightflow and mms alerts needing to be cleared manually in the app?

To anyone who has Lightflow pro running well: would you mind posting your settings?
I've tried every combination I can think of: root mode on/off, run every command as root on/off, etc. The best the app can manage is a brief pulse on, then off, then a quick on/off before the LED stays off. Have tried direct mode, too. Tried the Legacy version, but it doesn't cover a lot of apps.
I can't seem to get any consistent results otherwise.

To be honest, I gave up and now use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3244601

It includes Notification Light control and works perfectly.. And it's loads quicker than stock. Why buy a Nexus if you ain't gonna custom ROM it ?

Just as a note: I looked at their website, and tried installing the Legacy version without uninstalling the paid version. All apps show. Legacy version works fine.

Yes! I just got the 5x and am settling down with stock Android for a while. Rooted and Xposed. It will be maybe 2-3 days before I start installing custom ROMs! Thanks for the headsup on this particular ROM!

I have only had it for one night but it seemed to work fine for me. I changed the sleep method to "time" (it defaults to NFC or something) and set the "start time" to 10:30pm and the "end time" to 6:00AM. I also have ambient display disabled. I am not sure what GWR is though. Also make sure in each app notification setting you do not have "exclude from sleep mode" checked.

I'm using paid version of LF. For now I'm not rooted.
I noticed behaviour you've already talked about.
1. If I'm using ambient screen I always have notifiction icon "Number of notifications". Can I hide that?
I know I can hide it if I disable app notification, but in that case Light flow don't work anymore ...
2. Is there any solution with messing ambient screen and LW led. After recieved notification ambient lights on few times and completely mess up LF ...
Is Legacy version solving those problems?
Thank you.
edit: I solved problem with legacy.

I have en issue with lighflow legacy that when I set my gmail notification to switch screen on, it won't play the notification sound correctly, the screen will light and notification sound is not completed when email is received, it is like once the screen switch on, the notification sound won't complete till the end. Anyone noticed that? disabling switch screen on, will make the notification sound fine.

I have this problem with a N5x and LightFlow.
It doesnt matter if I do use Lightflow normal or legacy, because on legacy I kept seeing a Lightflow notification and the screen turns on with ambient display continuously due to this :S

Yes, still adjusting a little fore note 10. When i have a final release ill readd.
Playstore is always up to date.

this is great, was looking for something like this after seeing the Note 10+ didn't have a notification LED, it's such an important feature when you want to leave your phone on a table and see notifications or if its charged as you walk past or from across the room.
will definately be using this when my Note 10+ comes.

It's perfectly located when the screen is on. I'm also a software developer and I spent a little while playing around with an opensource version of a similar app (Holey Light). I think the issue is that the AOD doesn't stretch to the edge of the device on the Note 10/10+ like it does on the S10; it cuts off at the front camera. Hopefully there's a way to bypass that.

So far I love this. Great feature.
Can this support battery % also? Energy ring still hasnt made it correctly for note 10+

Set it up now just waiting for a text to see the notification. Thanks for this

Adds a configurable Energy Ring around the camera lens indicating current Battery level. Dive into the various configuration options, not only you can quickly glance and get the battery info but, Energy Ring adds an accent to your phone's camera lens.
Got a full charge? The Ring will be a 360 degree wrap around the front camera lens.
Battery depleting? So will the arc of Energy Ring.
Out of the box features:-
✓ Energy Ring can be configured from a width of 1 pixel to a donut thick ring
✓ Energy Ring puts almost 0% load on CPU, as it wakes up only to reflect any change in battery level
✓ Energy Ring's direction can be configured as clockwise/bidirectional/anti-clockwise
✓ Energy Ring can hide on fullscreen content (apps, videos, images, games etc)
✓ Energy Ring can be configured to change colors automatically depending on the live battery level
✓ Energy Ring could have a mono color/multiple color segments/gradient (pro)
✓ You can literally assign any color in the world for your favorite configuration
✓ Energy Ring has a number of cool animations whenever a power source is plugged into your device
​
All that is cool! But what about Energy Ring consuming Battery?!
This is one of the most exciting question for me to answer. Energy Ring more than anything understands that you need to utilize your battery efficiently (after all, that's why you installed the App, right? .) Energy Ring sits on the screen silently putting almost 0% load on CPU, if battery level changes, Android wakes up Energy Ring. Once awake, Energy Ring quickly updates itself and goes back to sleep. And to be that extra efficient, the Ring goes on deep sleep when you turn off the screen, meaning it doesn't even read changes in battery level when the screen is off.
Accessibility Service Requirement:
Android requires Energy Ring to run as an Accessibility Service, to be able to display on Lock Screen. It does not read/monitor any data, whatsoever. This is especially useful for people who have disability to read numbers and work better with visual data.

One question: When i lock the phone and then go back to the lockscreen the ring disapears for a short time (0.2s) and comes back again. Is that normal (like it gets new informations about the battery status) or is that a bug?
Edit: When i unlock the phone directly with fingerprint, the ring need a short time (0.2s) to appear.

It's normal as one other user pointed out.
The reason for it is well, Energy Ring completely sleeps that includes vanishing from the screen, the only thing active would be screen on/off listener. So when it gets ON, it almost reconfigure everything, it was kind of required during initial development of its parent App - Energy Bar.
I think I can get it to stay as it is without any adverse effect, expect it to be smoother in future updates.

Hello thanks for your work, but on my OP Nord is not working i dont know why, when i unlock the screen the screen shows but nothing more.

Regarding the issue, you mean, you were able to configure and see Energy Ring, but when you lock and unlock the phone it vanishes? It doesn't appear on the Lockscreen or it doesn't appear anywhere at all after you lock and unlock?

Just couldn't find the app. Cleared the play store data and all but it just isn't showing up & also checked all the apps by the Dev i.e; @jagan2 but the one you mentioned isn't on play store.

This can be also work for notch if u include v shape n u shape noutch with x n y potions with size control.
Please include this.

There's a slight bug if face unlock is enabled
The ring is hidden with a tiny streak visible
Then it works properly when the face scan completes or fails to find a face

The app stops working after the battery saver is turned on. When I tried to turn it on, it took me to the accessibility settings where it was already on.

Stopped Working after some time
Initially it started but when I fully charged the phone it stopped and when I try to enable it, it takes me to accessibility services where it is already ON.
Please sort this out as I was loving it.

Works fine for me, thanks.

Working great! Any ideas how to disable the persistent Android-System notification, that "warns" me that energy ring is displayed above other apps on my OnePlus Nord?

Couldn't get this working until I went into Accessibility settings and enabled it -- working fine now!

This is honestly really great. I like the ease of use and customisation options. I hope it doesn't drain too much and I'll get back on that.

Similar to this or a shine effect only around camera or tens of other styles can be used to indicate an event such as charging, music playing or a notification to help you to know even who texted you just by a glance far from your phone.
some of you may know this app before and some may had struggled with it in its bad moment with a broken version but it did not stop improving and all got fixed and many more feature added.
Because this app has tons of options to customize your phone, even wallpapers, I will start by writing instructions for how to enable the basic options of the feature which this thread is about:
How To:
1- Search google play "AOE" or "Always On Edge" and install this ~6MB App
2- Enter section #1 "Main Settings"
choose if you want the LED effect to be shown within System Ambient Display or a separated screen
3- enable accessibility services and give required permissions
4- Go back and enter section #2 "App settings"
for when to light choose "when a notification comes" and/or charging lighting as you like
5- scroll to bottom and save.
6- Enter enabled apps section and make sure the app you will test with is enabled
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.used.aoe
Please give the app some time only once and then you will not need to even open it:
After testing please discover all sections the app can do what ever you need for such feature
like at the same place of step 4 you can enable Mixer which show all current notifications colors
and Reminder which repeat lighting every X seconds and let other options you may like.
in lighting settings section you can customize the general style of lighting.
the app is indeed complicated due to variety of options and I'm always working on improving it.
Battery Drain:
I use it personally for notifications only, all apps, while screen is on and off, reminder for 5 seconds every 5 seconds limited to 30 repeat and I got 100s of emails and messages and the app is not even on system battery use list. but in general this app can be used with no noticeable difference in battery usage and it can drain your battery in few hours. it depends on the options you choose, there are a lot of options to minimize battery consuming it basically depends on lighting time and enabled widgets.
in worst cases there is options to prevent the app from working if device is not charging and other 10s of options so you can set when the app should not light as when the app should light.

Pretty cool! I didn't know about this app so thanks for sharing! Anyone else have any cool mods or recommendations for settings?

Awesome. Could you add the settings you use to center it on the hole? I'm getting there but just be nice as a starting point then could adjust thickness to taste . Thanks again! So cool. Takes me to back to OMG! NEXUS HAS A NOTIFICATION LED.

sorry I do not have a pixel but automatic adjustment should be fine initially (is not it?) then click preview and adjust manually a little bit using -+ buttons

Already paid for the Lifetime. This works really well!

This is as close as I could get it to center.

That's seems different from mine. By 10+ on some. I wonder how much the display size setting effect it. Thank you for the starting point.

I managed to use this app but everytime I got a new message after a restart, the app just don't work, does anybody knows a workaround? or it's just me not having a correct config?

seems gone from the playstore

Yeah, unfortunately. I just discovered it yesterday so I installed it from here. https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/alrbea-ent/always-on-edge-edge-lighting-/
But I also wanted to unlock all features by buying pro and that seems not to work without PlayStore
