ambient display / notifications help - Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe

Hi there,
I just bought a Mi 9t Pro- and generally I am happy with it. But coming from a Pocophone I really miss the notification LED; and the screen coming on when I got a notification.
The Ambient Display just isn't great, it's too bright and doesn't display notification info reliably - and I don't want an always on screen.
For me I'd like Ambient Display to show ONLY when I have notifications but leave the screen dark when there is none - is there a way to achieve this? Would even buy a 3rd party app.
Thanks in advance

Is this Mod possible?

Ambient display settings

hello,i want to know if is possible to enable ambient display only when a notification arrives, not always when picking up phone or out of pocket,i think it drains battery, im on euphoria but there isnt settings for ambient display,anyone has advice? thank you
There are no setting like that. Your best bet is to disable Ambient Display and install a 3rd party like Active Display

Moto Display issues after 6.0 update

Hello All,
The new update is really smooth but it seems to have affected my favorite feature Moto Display with some weird issues.
1) DND doesn't automatically deactivate the sensors like Moto Assist used to keep the screen dark and the phone still flashes notifications at night. Does that consumer battery and affect Doze?
2) We cand choose the screen to go dark from 11pm-6am in Moto Display, but they removed the option to define custom timings. So now its either 11pm-6am or have the phone flash notification all night?
3) The flashing interval for Moto Display also seems to have been reduced and it flashes too often now, which becomes a little annoying if the phone is in front of you.
Are these issues for everyone or am I missing something? Any comments or workarounds would be helpful.

I own Moto X 2014, but still Lollipop, not receive Marshmallow yet. But i find some changlog on Motorola, I see :
Sleeping and Meeting - to keep your phone quiet while you are sleeping or while you are busy in a meeting you may wish to consider using the Do not disturb feature from Android. To set it up, swipe the status bar down with two fingers and tap the gear icon at the top right corner of your screen. Once in the Settings menu, scroll down and tap Sound & notification, then go to Do not disturb. To keep your screen dark while you are sleeping, open the Moto app, tap the icon on the top right corner of your screen, then go to Display and set the time under Keep screen dark.

Tap the time in Moto display settings to choose what hours you would like the display to be off. The features in Marshmallow just have been relocated from what they were in Lollipop.
Ok, sorry. I got it. I tried hitting the numbers earlier but it just got deselected. Trying to tap those ain't easy with your thumb I guess. Worked now. Thanks guys!
Sent from my Moto X 2014.

But the Moto Display assist doesn't work with Marshmallow.... At least the icons don't appear....

Huawei P30 Pro Features - Question?

Hi!
Does the Huawei P30 Pro have the following features:
- Always On Display with ALL 3rd party notifications?
- Double-tap to sleep from home AND lockscreen
- Double-tap to wake from Always On Display
Thank you!
Yes the AOD supports all 3rd party notifications as long as they appear on the status bar. There are exceptions to this, for 'silent' notifications that only appear when you pull the bar down.
I don't believe that it supports double tap in any way, shape or form. With regards to tap-to-sleep this wouldn't work as the double-tap gesture is used to take a screenshot.
Double tap to wake from AOD is not supported either, however if you have fingerprint unlock it is kinda 'one-tap-to-wake' as you place your finger on the fingerprint scanner and the screen comes on.

Good to know about 3rd party notification on the AOD. Do the icons stay on the AOD even if you wake the phone up, but do not act on those notifications?
I'm asking because the way Xiaomi Mi 9 handles this is a complete mess.
Thank you!

No. When you unlock the phone (even if you don't dismiss the notifications) the icons will disappear from the AOD until another notification from the same app comes through.
For example, if you have a whatsapp message and unlock the phone the WA icon will disappear from the AOD until you receive another WA message.
EDIT: The exception to this is persistent notifications. For example I have VPN Unlimited. If this is connected then the icon remains. Likewise with WhatsApp Web notification, that remains.

Ah. I see. What an odd implementation. Xiaomi did the same thing. Good to know.
Are you happy with your Huawei? I'd mostly get it because of the camera.

To each their own, but I think it makes perfect sense. If I have unlocked the device then I am aware of the notifications - they don't get removed from the phone, just the AOD. Much in the same way a notification LED would handle it on a Samsung or other device. I would, if I could, get rid of the persistent notifications on the AOD, but other than that I don't mind.
Am I happy with the Huawei? In a way, yes. I got it for the camera and I am very impressed with it, unless you wish to shoot video. If you want to shoot video (with special mention of super-slow-motion videos) then you should look to get a different device - In my opinion.
The still photography is better than pretty much any other phone that I've ever used or come across and the night-time photography is also excellent. Video wise the panning stutters a little, the slow motion is purely interpolation (the sensor only captures 240fps, not 960 as it claims) and the colours in video seem... unrealistic. Sometimes too soft, sometimes too vivid. It's good, but not as good as others on the market for video.
Hello all,
I'm currently in China and would like to buy a P30 (Pro) and use it in Europe / Germany.
Are there different hardware specs (e. G. Lte bands) except for the obvious memory and storage options?
Thank you very much ?

Question Repeat Notification on screen...?

Hey all, just picked up a mi 11 ultra, coming from a OnePlus 7pro. I have plus beat on my 7pro to show me on screen notifications from sms, email etc... Trying to find something that works on the Mi11 ultra, so far I've tried plus beat and AOE but I can't seem to get either to work. AOE will do a notification one time, but won't repeat after 5-20 seconds after the initial notification.... Anyone else attempting this, or have found a solution to have screen notification reminders?
I'm using Glimpse Notifications:

Very good app, many configuration options available, no battery drain.
Anyway, Plus Beat for Oneplus 7Pro is unbeatable, Xiaomi is missing the Ambient Display...
Perfect, thanks I'll give that a shot!
Thanks that works, not nearly as nice as plus but will do the trick, hopefully the pocket detection works...
I don't get why this isnt implemented into phones as an option... Repeat notifications
