Any mods that turn off AOD when phone's in dark room? - Google Pixel 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Are there any mods that turns AOD off when the phone's in a dark room? Maybe something that checks the ambient light sensor and if it's dark then don't turn on otherwise then it on?

I suppose you're asking that because it's disturbing you while you sleep.
What I did is that I programmed Tasker to disable the AOD when Do Not Disturb is On. I can tell you how it you're interested.

Using the pixel stand works.
IDK if other chargers triggger that feature.

Is Ambient display supposed to keep "pulsating" until I check the notifications?

Is Ambient display supposed to keep "pulsating" until I check the notifications?
I don't fully understand ambient display, how is it supposed to work? When I receive a notification, the display is supposed to light up and then turn itself off a few seconds ago (kinda like the iphone does ) until I pick up the phone and then it automatically turns on the display and show me the black & white version of the lockscreen , right? But why is it that sometimes the display keeps "pulsating" every couple of seconds like it does when you get a notification but it doesn't stop until I check it? Is this behavior app independent?
Yes. Me also faced the same issue. That's why I keep it off.
Read this, it's a pretty good explanation of ambient display http://www.androidcentral.com/ambient-display-nexus-6

Yep pretty much works like I thought it did , when it keeps "pulsating" it's probably because of a bug of the app that's sending the notification

Brightness Management: What's the best way?

I don't know if anyone else feels this way, but I tend to think that the auto brightness setting on stock lollipop is WAY too bright, and, while of course it shows off the screen, it wastes battery life.
I can turn on power saving mode to try and dim the screen to some extent. I've also given Lux a try, but it didn't really seem to do much...
Does anyone have an idea for auto brightness which works similarly to how CM12.1 does it on this phone? Where you can set how bright you want it to be, but it still compensates for ambient light?
Thanks!

I like screen filter. It's very simple and you can pick which percentage you want. I've gotten it lower than stock. I'd recommend giving it a try. Couldn't hurt.
Not sure about the ambient light bit, last time I used it was on my note 2. It may be available.
There's a setting for ambient light too.

AOD brightness

Hello, does some one knows why the AOD sometimes is brighter sometimes dimmer, regardless of ambient light, it is driving me nuts as I do not find some setting for controlling this…
Btw, I am still on 7.1.1, 950 F stock

I Think it's related to the light sensor on top of the device. When you get your phone off your pocket it will be lighten up.
And probably will happen at the same time you read out the screen. Aftere facedown the device or when it hasn't recognized human usage for a while (1 to 2 min.), it should be dimmed to reduce power.
Have you set auto brightness to off at 'settings/ display' or else tried to set 'adaptive display' to 'basic' at 'settings/ display/ screen mode'?
Have you set the AOD to be always on? Or having time specific settings enabled?
Hopefully this will help you out.
Thanks , I use entertainment mode, I set AOD to always, as for light sensor, in dark or bright situations it seems to be brighter or dimmer at random, sometimes I wake up after 2 or 3 hours of sleep antd AOD is very bright!, or the contrary, beeing for sometime outdoors and is dimmed
Which version of AOD did you have installed? Is it custom downloaded from sammobile or something? Maybe force stop the app, or better to clear app data and reboot and/or check if the app has an update. All in app-info
Currently I'm on 8.0.0 and no issues with AOD so far.

I did some research and found something that might work to decrease dimming to 0.
The app (link to Playstore) "priv set" (by: oguzhan yigit) has some powerful settings with it to set on overlay basis.
One thing... You only can use it with root privilege.
The attachment shows the possible setting to decrease dimming while dozing.

If your display is set to Adaptive Mode, your screen will change the screen tone (including white) based on your surroundings, just like the True Tone feature on the iPhone X.

Well, I have A6 plus, but I don't have experienced like what you wrote. I can only making it manual in Adaptive Mode. Do I need switch on/off something to work it automatically?

Well, the screen tone changing is barely noticeable unless you compare when you go from one place to another. I have my screen mode on Adaptive Mode and the full screen color balance is on the middle.
Thank you. Also what I don't understand, if I'm using other screen mode like Adaptive, and when I switch on the Blue light filter, it switches back to Adaptive mode with that tiring vivid colour. Why it's just don't apply the Blue light filter in the applied Screen mode? Meh...

Question Disable light sensor

The front light sensor on my device doesn't work, causing my screen to flicker randomly. How would I disable this sensor?

That doesn't do it. This flickering occurs even when adaptive is off, but stops when I enable "Sensors Off"

This proves that ambient light sensor is not the root cause of flickering. It's actually pwm. More info here https://www.notebookcheck.net/Xiaom...-display-redmi-note-10-pro-with-a-120-hz-oled

I've followed all steps mentioned, but it doesn't fix anything. My phone doesn't have the flickering that it mentions, the brightness flickers randomly around three times a second, and in diagnostics the light sensor goes from detecting 0-20 to 30,000+ even in pitch black, which corresponds with the brightness flicker
PWM doesn't explain the random brightness changes every few seconds, especially since it's completely absent when sensors are disabled
I just want to know how to disable this specific sensor instead of all at once
