Always-On Display

The Always-On Display on OnePlus and OPPO phones, showing the clock, notifications and music while the screen is off. You can disable it, with a caveat: read what stops working first.

What it does

Always-On Display draws the clock, notifications, music controls and personalized styles on the screen while the phone is locked and the display is otherwise off. OnePlus documents its styles under Wallpapers & style. It runs whenever the always-on display is showing.

If you disable it

The always-on display stops. Community lists note that on some phones related features, such as Zen Space progress on the always-on display, also go.

How to disable it

On most phones Settings greys out Disable for this package, so ADB is the way to turn it off. The commands below work without root and can be undone.

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.oplus.aod

adb shell pm enable com.oplus.aod

The stronger option removes it for your user only; the original copy stays on the phone and a factory reset brings it back. Prefer disabling: it is easier to undo.

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.oplus.aod

adb shell cmd package install-existing com.oplus.aod

New to ADB? Set it up in about ten minutes.

Data and battery

Nothing beyond your display style choices; it shows notification content you already allow on the lock screen.

Uses some battery while showing; turning it off in Settings saves the same power without disabling the package.
