*** thoughts on lcd power *** so, i tried experimenting with turning the lcd off in order to save power. the good news: this saves a lot. i did a 3h ride which usually depletes the battery and I still had around two more hours to go. now the bad news: - i had to de-activate the twist detection : you cannot raise your watch to the eyes to turn it on. that's because with twist detection on all road bumps turn the watch on constantly. - i tried manual detection like : Bangle.on('accel', function(xyz) { if (xyz.diff > 0.4 && xyz.mag > 1 && xyz.z < -1.4) { Bangle.setLCDPower(true); Bangle.setLocked(false); } }); this works nicely when you sit on a chair with a simulated gps signal but does not work so nicely when on the bike. sometimes it is ok, sometimes you can try 10 times with no success. - instead i use screen touch to turn it on. that's a bother since you need two hands but well it could be worth it. the problem is in the delay: between 1 and 5 seconds before the screen comes back on. my conclusion is that: * we should not turn screen off unless we agree to have an unresponsive ui * we should maybe autowake near segments ends and when lost * we should play with backlight instead ************************** + when you walk the direction still has a tendency to shift + put back foot only ways + try fiddling with jit + put back street names + put back shortest paths but with points cache this time and jit + how to display paths from shortest path ? misc: + use Bangle.project(latlong)
