e-book works without the LCD side

When I press the power key to shut off, I hope at least the e-book side works continually with the current book, but not switch to the EDGE logo.

You don't need to press power key. You can close the lid, and than open it again. LCD will be off, but e-ink will work.

Hello Robot,

Off-topic: How are you, are you recovering well? I hope your motor accident was not to severe!

And off course: any progress in your programming for edge?

Jos.

Thank you for sympathy. The shoulder will be restored in 2 weeks. Everything else seems returned to norm


As for programming:
I'm trying to improove zooming, but given that android display in order to fill entire display must be increased to 1.38 times, yet failed to make sufficiently good algorithm.

On the other hand I'm working on increasing battery life and has made small strides in this area. Unfortunately drivers used in EE does not support some power management modes (for example setpowercap for SD8688, zero power, deepslip for pxa168), although the official drivers from Marvell (chipset manufacturer) support them. Using these features probably you can increase battery life in 2-5 times. Unfortunately in order to enable these hardware features require to compile the kernel, which is absolutely not possible without a complete set of source code.
