If you have a mobile Oppo A54 and you want your mobile phone’s Always On Display (AOD) to remain always on in the future. You are not alone in this problem. Many Oppo users are looking for a way to enable this feature because it looks innovative and allows you to quickly view notifications, battery, and date without unlocking the phone. In this article, I will tell you in full detail how you can turn your mobile phone’s display on and off forever.
Does OPPO A54 Support Always On Display?
Before you start all this, you need to understand a few things.
- OPPO A54 uses an LCD display, not AMOLED.
- True Always On Display works only on AMOLED screens.
- LCD screens cannot turn off pixels individually like AMOLED.
Therefore, OPPO A54 does NOT officially support real Always On Display.
Don’t get tense now!
You can still enable features like ‘Always On Display’ (AOD) using built-in settings or third-party apps. These alternatives look just like the original AOD.”

Method 1: Check Built-in Settings (ColorOS AOD Option)
Oppo releases different features in different regions. Some of the Oppo series have a screen-off clock feature that works like an Always-On Display. This must meet your needs.
Follow these few steps to check if Oppo 54 has these features or not.
Open Settings

Look for Always-On Display or Screen-off Clock
If available → Turn it ON
