RE: Bookworm - bcnaz - 02-16-2022
Under light use my phone is showing 70% at about 13 hours off the charger. No phone calls today but quite a few texts. & checking for texts.
The phone is recovering from suspend pretty quick. I sure Hope that stays fixed.
Lots of little stuff under the hood getting polished a bit at a time.

Mine died after just 8hrs off full charge. I'm backtracking on what happened ...
... I'd listened to a podcast -- Leo's Laporte's TechTalk if anyone is old enough to remember him on TechTV
-- then listened to some music via local files via Lollypop, and then set the phone down locked. I'd been checking the power consumption: 2-3W while listening, so the Power app was open / in background, and Settings app as well. 50% charge.Wi-Fi & Cell were enabled, Bluetooth disabled; and Bookworm has been good about putting wifi to sleep. When I unlock the phone now, I can see the Wi-Fi icon disabled, then gets re-enabled; and I can also not ping the phone on my home WiFi when it's been sitting a few mins. No calls & no txts happened to wake the phone back up.
My guess is Lollypop never let go of the DAC in the modem. What I mean is: my understanding is all audio channels run through the Quectel chip, right? Or Lollypop kept churning away on one of the A64 cores. If so, I'll have to remember to shutdown apps before walking away from the phone for hours.
To really know what's going on, something like sar needs to audit activity. There's other monitoring tools, like pcp, but sar is pretty low intensity compared to them IMHO.

Suspend sure helps extend battery life !
We still need to improve the energy efficiency of the running Apps, but for now,
being able to wake from suspend is a big step forward.

Just a heads up, if you are using tow-boot with the FOSS modem then the modem shuts down during suspend.
RE: Bookworm - bcnaz - 02-23-2022
OUCH was considering that combo. Though I have been lucky the original firmware is still functioning great in all 6 of my pine phones .
(knock on wood )
RE: Bookworm - ragreenburg - 02-24-2022
Yeah, it is definitely far from ideal. I've talked with Biktorj (the person who writes the FOSS modem) about it and he can't seem to figure out what the cause is. So for now, you can either have suspend on the Pro or have the FOSS modem but not both.
RE: Bookworm - bcnaz - 02-25-2022
On my Pine vers. 1.2a Mobian recovers pretty dependably from suspend now, and that greatly increases battery run time.
On my new Explorer not so lucky, Mobian for Pro series is freezing (still) when ever it enters suspend.
and other annoyances like it refuses to shut down.

Currently enjoying all the hard work people are putting into Mobian.
Trying to update via GUI and also via command line, but I keep getting
"Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13 Permission denied)
Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend) , are you root?"
What to do?

I get that sometimes, I believe it happens the system is running an update on the background(please correct me if I am wrong). But usually waiting a bit and running sudo apt update again works for me.

That depends :
How much do you have invested into your current installation ?
I have encountered updating problems as well, I am going to put the Febuary 27 weekly on one of my test phones
If that FLIES : I will follow with my full time Pine phone, I don't keep much on my phone, so just transfer the contacts, and I'm good to go with a fresh flash.
