Pinephone LED Fresnel lens - Commentary
#10
For the time being it seems that the most stable OS is the Manjaro Plasma, though there is much trouble caused if you leave the screen Auto-Turn on, it consumes much power and makes the Plasma unresponsive for some time especially if you hold it upside down as it is the only phone that rotates the screen 180 degrees and this causes problems.

If you check the `/sys` the sensors work all the time though in the `net.hadess.SensorProxy` in D-Bus only the accelerometre returns the readings.

I remember that the Coolpad Torino (Android 5.0) had an energy saving mode that hibernated completely everything except the modem and you could only make calls, calculator and alarms.

I consider the Pinephone the reference device for a Frame Buffer UI, old 40nm power consuming hardware that needs to be stripped off of any complex modern software technology, everything should be used as needed and then be hibernated.

We have a relevant discussion for the modem here

I have seen such big Fresnel lenses on the rear windshield of the buses, in the middle there is a lens and gratings from half a diametre to the edge for focusing the image from the total width of the street.
