Wake up from sleep

[_nico]

Yes! Yes! Yes!
It works for me!

echo 0 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm
echo $WAKEUPTIMER > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm
echo "mem" > /sys/power/state

Check my Shellscript on GitHub.

My Kindle KT3 keeps on a single charge, with 57 eips updates a day, 30-35 days.

Nicely done.

Note:
You do not have to use MySQL on the server to create history logs -
SQLite3 is installed on your Kindle.

Nice @nico - thats what i was looking for. i´ll try it if i find some time.

i used this in the meantime, but i was a total battery sucker.

played with this a bit on my kindle touch (B011). I could not really get this to
work using echo to the wakealarm sysfs node, but found something that worked for me,
maybe it helps others:
- the B011 has two rtc devices, only rtc1 (the pmic_rtc) has the wakealarm
- the system has the rtcwake tool installed

this simple hack makes it sleep one minute and come back for me, even without other
things like manually disabling wifi or such:


rtcwake -d /dev/rtc1 -m no -s 60
echo "mem" > /sys/power/state

Hi all,

I am currently trying use online screensaver for a private project. I got an allready jailbroken kindle for that. It is a kt3 with Firmware 5.8 and installed.

I installed the linkss screensaver hack via the "Install MR Packages" and it is working. I also installed online screensaver and configured it and everything is working except the wake up. I tried different implementations for the wait_for function that scheduleds the wake up... The result is always the same: online screensaver update just starts when I press the power button and then never again.

Has anybody an idea or hint what I could do to debug this better? I had hope in this thread because _nico confirmed that the method in this thread worked for him and the kt3.

Best regards,
Martin

Okay - I got it after reading nicos weather script a little deeper. And I can confirm that it works on my KT3 with Firmware 5.8.

If someone has problems with online screensaver and the KT3 - i use the following:

wait_for() in util.h

wait_for () {
        logger "wait_for() started"

        ### Enable CPU Powersave
        CHECKCPUMODE=`cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor | grep -i "powersave"`
        if [ ${CHECKCPUMODE} -eq 0 ]; then
          echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
          logger "CPU powersave mode"
        fi

        ### Disable Screensaver, no energysaving by powerd
        # powerd buggy since 5.4.5 - https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=235821
        CHECKSAVER=`lipc-get-prop com.lab126.powerd status | grep -i "prevent_screen_saver:0"`
        if [ ${CHECKSAVER} -eq 0 ]; then
          lipc-set-prop com.lab126.powerd preventScreenSaver 1
          logger "Disabled buggy energy saving"
        fi

        # calculate the time we should return
        ENDWAIT=$(( $(currentTime) + $1 )) 

        # disable/reset current wakeup alarm
        echo 0 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc$RTC/wakealarm

        # set new wakeup time
        echo $ENDWAIT > /sys/class/rtc/rtc$RTC/wakealarm

        # suspend
        logger "wait for device to resume from sleep, or for time out"
        echo "mem" > /sys/power/state
        
        logger "wait_for() finished"
}

Hi there,

is there also a possibility to wake the Kindle by button-press?
Can't find someting here in the forum.

Wrote a script for a clock/weatherdisplay and put the kindle to sleep with

echo "" > /sys/class/rtc/rtc1/wakealarm
echo "+60" > /sys/class/rtc/rtc1/wakealarm

Around the whole clock thing a

while true do...

loop so this runs infinitely.
Would be cool to be able to stop the clock and return to KUAL by pressing any button but the kindle seems to be in a very deep sleep and only a restart can wake it up

An option would be to press a button for a minute (until the kindle wakes up) but also wasn't able to catch the button press in a shell script. Has anyone a code snippet for this?

@knc1: Thanks for sharing your code! The "Shutdown as many services as possible" and "deactivate WLAN/activate WLAN"-parts were very helpful for me.

I created a new version of the onlinescreensaver which works on my PW2. Happy if someone wants to give it a try:
