[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] _tike_:
hello,

aodnotify doesn't work with the google assistant properly for me (S23 Ultra) .

The notifications view works perfectly.

My problem is when the device is locked and I call up the google assistant via Bluetooth hands-free system, the google assistant is started but the confirmation sounds after each command are not available. That means I never know when I can say commands or when the assistant will end commands.

Unfortunately, the google assistant cannot be used in this way.

As soon as I uninstall aod notify the assistant works perfectly with confirmation sounds.

Interesting are, if aodnotify is installed and I unlock the device manually, then google assistant works fine with confirmations sounds, as it should, with all sounds.

Thanks in advance

I have just updated my S23 to the OneUI 6 / Android 14 beta. aodNotify only works when screen is on. But if the screen is off, the notification light is not displayed without the always on display (AOD).

As soon as I set the option to only show the notification light (do not show AOD), nothing is shown when receiving notifications while screen is off.

I have already tried with and without the AOD Manager option. I have also tried different effects and settings. No luck.

@Jawomo : Can you please check with your S23 Ultra?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] shouren04:
Do you have AOD set to Show Always (in phone settings)? Turn on AOD, change the setting, then turn back off if using AOD Manager in aodNotify.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] elnarci:
@Jawomo Any response to my message last Friday?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] It_ler:
Already tried this. Unfortunately does not work on my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] shouren04:
Ah I see, just a thought cause the same thing happened to me, twice actually. Once was when I restored all my apps including aodNotify from a backup. In addition to the Show Always setting, aodNotify was disaabled in Accessibility. It was greyed out & couldn't be turned on. Had to try enabling it to get the toast about it being restricted, then go to app properties and allow the restriction to be turned off.

The other time not sure what happened but couldn't get screen off to work again. I uninstalled & reinstalled from scratch & that fixed it.

So I'm guessing in your case it has to be related to OneUI 6 beta? I wonder if that new auto blocker feature has something to do with it?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] It_ler:
I am quite sure that it is related to the OneUI 6 /Android 14 update, as aodNotify worked fine before on my phone.

But I am always open to try different things to get it working again.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
Unfortunately there are serious limitations introduced with android 14. The helper app cannot be sideloaded anymore, thus some features may not work anymore.

Samsung also changed the aod behavior, not allowing the light to update.

I dont know if its a bug in beta or intended behavior. We will have to wait for next android 14 beta to get some clearance..
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
Will push an update with a

DO NOT UPDATE TO ANDROID 14 WARNING!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] elnarci:
There seems to be no answer. Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
Hard to find the cause as i dont have a A Series device for testing. Did you try restarting phone once?

A fresh install may also help. Normally you cand do anything wrong here.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] elnarci:
The phone is brand new, and yes, I have reset and factory reset it as well as uninstalled and reinstalled the app.

For what I will explain below I have discovered that regardless of the configuration of the application there is an error that occurs when the phone is blocked, since whenever I look in the help section: Important note, Samsung could deactivate.... It appears as in photo 1 that I attached and after following the instructions it appears as in photo 2, from what I understand I do it well, but when the screen turns off it returns to the initial situation of photo 1, from there my conviction of the error of the application since whenever the screen is locked and unlocked the Alwais on Display appears deactivated as in photo 4

but if the application is uninstalled many times the screen is locked and the AOD is unlocked remains activated as in photo 3 but so the application is installed and without any configuration on my part the AOD always appears disabled as in photo 4 , that is, something interferes with the screen lock with the application.

And as a clarification I must say that I am on Android 13.

Greetings
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
Please enable aod manager in settings
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] elnarci:
That option has always been and is enabled. That's not the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] elnarci:
the only way it doesn't happen is by having the experimental "touch to show" option enabled but when enabled it tells me that errors can happen (?)
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] hsl.:
Even with last update tap to show is always showing the aod on after notification income always

Brightness of notification show be higher because of the sun outside

Have pro version S22U

@Jawomo
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Cryte-k:
hello. In the "mark notifications as seen" section I use the "screen on" option, but I get a warning that says "turn on screen in notifications is not available if..." I can't read the rest of the warning... they can help?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
google limited max. toast length in an android update, so now we cant read it fully.

if you have "wake screen on notification" active you cant use "clear on screen on" option. They cant work together
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Benji1983:
hi dev

is there a chance of getting it to work on a14 beta 1

thx in advance

benji
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
still working on it
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] It_ler:
Let me know if you need a beta tester. I am on Beta 2 with my SM-S911B and already registered as beta tester for aodNotify (for Samsung) in Play store.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Cryte-k:
ok thanks..

Ah. the latest version makes the aod fully displayable, before the update it worked fine :(
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
What do you mean exactly?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
New update is online. Working fine here on oneui 6 beta 2
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] It_ler:
I can confirm that the new aodNotify version (6.00) is working fine on One UI 6.0 Beta 2 👍🏼

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Cryte-k:
Now update and it works great again. Before this update there was another one that made the AOD turn on completely. since I used the notification preview option.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] SyCoREAPER:
One slight issue with the camera cutout option. If you use say Zoom Ring, the 'Display on Top' though required, does not play nice. If the rings overlap with what you are trying to tap it interferes.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Mort015:
Im on One Ui 6 Beta 2 too. And now i cant use the Edge Lighting.. Just Punch Hole and Figerprint sensor.. But loghting on Edges is gone :(
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] SyCoREAPER:
Read the one sentence changelog.. It's pretty straightforward.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Mort015:
Got it 🙈
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] SyCoREAPER:
No worries. So few devs even put proper changelogs anymore. My first impression was the same as yours.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
It's really a shame that we no longer have the edge lighting. That was the best one by far.

@Jawomo Can you tell me if the "Zoom ring" effect, and the 2 "Neon" options use considerably more energy than the "Power Saving" ones? And how much (yes, i know that it depends on several factors)?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DanielG_97:
Hi dev, a query, is there any way to go back to the previous version of the app without losing the purchase ? Honestly I bought the app because I really liked the use of screen edge lighting, but now with this update they removed it and it doesn't feel the same, will I be able to do a rollback to the previous version ? Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
I preferred the edge lighting also but has dev stated, he changed due to restrictions of Android 14/OneUI 6.

I hope this could be sorted in the future.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DanielG_97:
Yep, but i'm still with One Ui 5.1, That's why I was asking if it was possible to rollback maybe a specific version for those of us who are still on the previous version of One Ui :(
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
On OneUi 5 you can still use edge lighting. On OneUi 6 its not possible anymore. at least for now

EDIT: Just checked, theses a bug in current release which disables edge lighting for OneUi5, will fix asap.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DanielG_97:
Yes i know, but currently since the last update, still being in One Ui 5, the option for the screen edge lightning has disappeared, only the following 3 options appear
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
I'm on OneUI 5.1 and had lost the edge lighting but I now updated and it's back again. 😁

Can you tell me if the "Zoom ring" effect, and the 2 "Neon" options (when using "Camera edge" style) use considerably more energy than the "Power Saving" ones? And how much (yes, i know that it depends on several factors)?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DanielG_97:
@Jawomo bro, amazing how responsive you were, I reported a "bug" and within minutes I got an update fixing the screen edge lighting, you are the goat, thank you very much, it was totally worth the purchase of your amazing app :D
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] hsl.:
Hi

There is any update to this? I want only the ligth around the camera to blink but it keeps aod always on after receiving notification.

I have tap to show active.

Have pro version of aod

@Jawomo
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
No idea, sorry. Different on every device and setup
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
Ok, thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
you can set the aod show time in the app, just set it to same time as the light
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dboss007:
Hey there... Just to be clear, Edge Lighting is NOT working on OneUI6, correct? I find the changelog confusing in whether it should be working or not at this point. (Just updated to the beta version). In one section it reads like it's back & in another section as if it's still broken.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] jaseman:
What I find is certainly broken is that Samsung has not allowed us to determine how long ANY notification light/screen flash, etc., etc., stay on! Why give us ANY ability to flash anything when receiving a notification and yet if we're not staring at our screen we will MOST ASSUREDLY miss it? Waste of programming at its best!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
Samsung it's not the only one to (ridiculous) limit that.

I already used AOD (Always on Edge) but it's incredible the amount of cookies and (supposed...) "legitimate interests" that we have to disable manually.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] oVeRdOsE.:
wow this forum starting to be really nxxi.

github for life.

nothing wrong with you OP, I like your work, mods are insane lately.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
On android 14 its not working currently. Before android 14 all is fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Genky_Guru:
Hi, lately I've noticed that when the phone screen is off I don't get any visual notifications, whereas before the notification lighting was always there.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] jaseman:
Are you able to control HOW LONG it repeats the notification? Or does it just flash a few times and then stop?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Genky_Guru:
This is not the problem. The problem is that when the screen is off it doesn't show me any notification light, whereas before it did. However, as soon as I activate the screen, without unlocking it, just by accessing the unlock screen, the notification light is visible, but not when it is turned off.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] jaseman:
I realize that your problem may be different. Sorry!

I am just trying to find ANYONE who has found a way to control how long the native notification edge lighting, or screen flashes stay active? The three setting that Samsung offers are worthless! The longest setting lasts about 5 seconds which is totally worthless.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] HogCall:
So why is "always on display" needed on the s23? I never had that on on my S10+ bc I don't like things on my screen all the time. They're distracting to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
did you disable battery optimization for aodNotify?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
theres an option to hide the always on display in the app. You will just see the light then
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] tutuco:
Hi @Jawomo, I'm a user of your products. I bought the aodNotify in the past. I switch from one phone to another, and now it's asking me to pay again.

Is this normal? Should I buy the software again?

KR

​
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jawomo:
That may be possible. There are different versions of aodNotify for different manufacturers.

As every manufacturers has a own implementation of the AOD one global version was not possible. As a downside purchases are not interchangeable unfortunately.

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] eyeatoma:
Hi,

Is there a way to prevent the aod from activating when launching the camera? When I do so the notification light is still on and it's in the middle of the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sansnil:
Hi @Jawomo , I'm loving the tap-to-wake and AOD on for notifications feature. It's perfect. But I've noticed if a notification is dismissed, the display will turn on. For example, I receive an email notification and aodNotify will correctly start alerting with the AOD screen on. If I dismiss the notification from my watch or computer, the phone's display turns on. Is there a way to make so the display stays off? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
Hi @Jawomo,

My phone updated now to OneUI 6.0/Android 14. Can you update your app for being possible to have the edge lighting again?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Fl1nt91:
With the ne ONEUI 6 you can finally have the edge lighting turning on and a pop up appearing when a notification arrives, also with AOD disabled and screen off.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
The edge lighting was already there before the update but my use case with aodNotify, is for the light to turn on every X seconds/minutes during Y seconds (when screen is off), until the notifications is read.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] 2ni13:
Hello, I have activated the function show only lighted notification, hide aod and I have activated the function turn on screen during a notification but only the lighted notification appears, the screen does not turn on.

Do you have a solution ?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DiscoThunder:
Love this app. Can you please add option to always show notifications when charger is connected?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dscline:
This is also how I have been using it... Edge lighting while the screen is off until notification is acknowledged. Is there any way to get this back? It's much preferable to me as it's more noticeable than the remaining 3 options (camera or fingerprint ring, or's led dot) and also just looks much better.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
Unfortunately, it seems that @Jawomo hadn't been able (at least yet) to make it compatible again since, AFAIK, it depends on Samsung and Android updates and policies. 😞
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] ketabruce:
Is there any chance for getting edge lighting back with OneUI6 in the near future? Been using this for years and I didn't notice how much I'm addicted to it. I know there might be Android (or Samsung, I'm with S23) limitations, but still would like to get it back ASAP. Willing to buy SUPER PRO licence as well ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
It has been mentioned already.

Also, the developer always said on the Play Store, and I quote:

"Unfortunately Samsung and Google added lots ofr estrictions for developers in android 14 / OneUi6.

Because of this some features like "tap to wake" mode or "screen edge lighting" will not worka nymore. At least until now."

So, unfortunately, there's a big possibility that we will not have edge lighting again (thanks Samsung... Thanks Google...)
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] ketabruce:
OK, so I don't need "edge" lighting, but some other kind of notification that is larger than my small finger nail (so I can see it without glasses). Is that also limited by Android, Samsung? A half screen size circle, or square, whatever just not a 10 pixel wide dot...
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
You have three options: around the camera hole, a led point and on the fingerprint. And you can play with size, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] roo79x:
Hi. I have been using this app ever since I got my S10e years ago. It is a great app. Thank you. I have had to downgrade the app to version 4.02 as the edge lighting was removed (because of Google and Samsung) in the latest version. I would like to know if you can please re release the 4.02 version as a legacy app as it still works 100% perfect on the S10e with android 12 and OneUI 4.1 no issues and all options still working perfectly. I'd even be happy to pay again if I have to. The main reason why I ask for this is so the 4.02 version has a different signed key to the latest one in the play store so it doesn't want to update to the newer version. Thanks again for a great app and your hard work. I hope you will at least please consider my idea.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mugur24:
Hi. Can you please make this app work on the cover screen of Samsung Z flip 5?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
@Jawomo if you want, you can make the edge lighting work again. It is possible.

I tried yesterday with an app i once paid and used before paying for yours, and it works.

Please, make that happen.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Kopesh2:
S23 ultra on one ui 6

Tap to wake AOD with notification preview worked,even on one UI 6. Then I did a factory reset and now it doesn't work anymore, I have to use permanent AOD to have notification preview active, otherwise it won't work.

How can I use tap to wake AOD with notification preview? It worked before, so what are the settings?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] modo1302:
same here, bought a licence while back and been using this apps edge lightning, as the stock one is missing a vital functonality - setting the lightning color per the app. Please fix the edge lighting option for one ui 6!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Coldblackice:
Is it just me or was there previously a feature to protect against screen burn by randomly shifting the position of the blinking LED?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] vrgolin:
Hi im using the pro ver. After phone reset the app dosent start , i have to do it manual. Thabks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] arafat003:
Hi @Jawomo, Yesterday, I bought aodNotify, but now when I am trying to set it up, I am unable to install the aodNotify Manager. It is showing an error message "App not installed as the app isn't compatible with your phone." Can you please suggest what should be my next step?

Also, I want to use AOD on the lock screen. Whenever I tap once, it should appear, and aodNotify should show always on the camera edge. I am using Android 14.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Warsku:
Been using the app for a few days now and was wondering if there is any plans to enable adding different effects for different kinds of notifications? e.g. battery charging different effect than battery full...
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] caeruleorhiza:
not dissing the app, it's just not useful for me so i uninstalled it, but now there is a component called 'aodNotify Manager' which i am unable to install. Anyone have suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sardelisp:
People read the instructions! Search to get the answers. They have been already discussed
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bloodstorm666:
Is there a way to adjust the notification brightness while on lock screen? I would like it to be bright even when it's dark outside.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] vrgolin:
hi there is the way to customize each app with its on led style, color and settings? thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] caeruleorhiza:
How do i UNinstall 'aodNotify Manager'?? I've searched and only see another person asking without answer.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] vrgolin:
take off the permissions that u give to the app when you installed it. (notifications, accessibility on phone settings)
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] caeruleorhiza:
I have done that, but the component is still on my device. How to remove it completely?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] vrgolin:
what do u mean component? files?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] caeruleorhiza:
the apk. You have to install a separate app called 'aodNotify Manager' to get the app to work properly. When i uninstalled the app, the apk for aodNotify Manager is still installed and i can't find a way to remove it. I'm sure I'm missing something but don't know what
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sansnil:
Answering my own issue here in case anyone else encounters this. There is a workaround which is to disable notifications for the main app. The only impact is that the test notification function will of course not work but otherwise it resolves the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] caeruleorhiza:
this is the APK i am talking about. Not sure if this is nefarious necessarily, but uninstalling the main app doesnt remove this component and I've had to find another way to remove it.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sansnil:
You don't see it listed in /Settings/Apps? It should be easily uninstalled there.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
I have the option to uninstall it
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] HogCall:
Since the Samsung update the other day, my notification light has gone from the edges of the screen to a circle around the camera. I've always been able to fix this in the past, but now I can't find it in the settings anywhere.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sansnil:
It's a known issue (read back a few posts). Hopefully @Jawomo is working on a fix and that option will return soon.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] HogCall:
I went back to 11/20, which is before the update was released, and I don't see any messages about this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sansnil:
You didn't go back far enough. 11/20 is when the update appeared for your device, but it's been an issue with OneUI6 since it came out. It's even mentioned in the app store dev comments.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
I hope he can fix it. There is another app that works flawlessly with edge lighting.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] caeruleorhiza:
I didn't. I only discovered it still on my phone thru using a battery monitor. I had to use an open-source tool to remove it from my phone
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] B4ore:
I'm on a T-mobile variant Samsung S22 Ultra running the latest One UI and Android 14. I use the Zoom Ring but I'm finding with most of the effects, if I have a notification, I am unable to select anything within the space the Zoom Ring notification is alerting. Also I have go to the very far right or left of my screen at the top bar to pull down my Quick Settings. The screen is just not responsive in the notification area till it stops flashing. Hoping there's a fix for this soon.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Yahretzky:
Recently I started getting an error message on my S23 Ultra and the phone becomes unresponsive to touches. And even when I manage to activate the screen the led keeps flashing no matter what. The only workaround is to reset aodNotify off/on. The attached screenshot is in Polish and the error message reads: "The app is not optimised to the newest version of Android and screen touches might react slow or become unresponsive".

Would be great to remedy that!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Philip:
On the main screen go to Colors/App colors - this allows you to at least change the colour for each app. You can also choose Auto color.
