The screen type has nothing to do with Glance, it's the display memory. LCD displays are perfectly capable of Glance, but they won't come with the added battery benefits (as the whole backlight is still used, while with AMOLED individual pixels would be used). Glance is activated using a proximity sensor which is basically infrared that detects motion in front of the screen. The display's memory dictates how quickly it can access and display information and how much it can display using Glance. AMOLED displays with Glance typically react faster because of AMOLED's screen technology, and it looks better as it is true black. However, that being said, LCD displays work just fine as well. If you compare a Lumia 830 to the Lumia 1020, the 1020 is typically noticeably faster, even with slower hardware. It's the display technology. The Moto X "Glance" screen (it's not really Glance but it works the same way) is much faster as well as a combination of four proximity sensors and AMOLED technology.Thanks. One down, a few million to go.
Doesn't work on mine. My lock screen has been showing the weather just fine, but it never shows on Glance, which I was expecting. I've heard reports from other 640 users it doesn't work for them either. It could be a GDR2 thing, or it could be because it's not AMOLED. I'm not sure how they did glance without AMOLED, but I'm still happy.
Also not available that I can find. Don't want the background for glance, though, as one of the things I love about it is the simplicity and non-jarring effect it has when you "glance" in a dark room.
Thanks! Do I get a T-Shirt?
If you're one that lost Glance settings, sorry for your loss.

If there's not, that might be a great app idea to suggest to the developers who hang out in this community!I wish the glance screen show the battery . There is a way?

TRUE. The battery level for me is more important than show the day of the week or the weather.If there's not, that might be a great app idea to suggest to the developers who hang out in this community!
