I've (down)graded from a Mars to a P10. One of the issues is ATIME.

This is the datetime stamp for when a file was last used. Not modified.

When I go to the file list which is sorted by modified datetime, the last book I opened is at the top, not what I want!

Having atime turned on, means disk activity is much higher than normal.

Extra disk activity means extra battery drain as welll. Just so your files have the last accessed datetime !!!! Arggghhh.

You need to remount the internal memory with a NOATIME switch in your fstab. I don't have root, so can't do this..... So if anyone has a boyue email can you please ask them if this can be fixed.

(mutters to himself that he should have bought another Mars)
