In-band deep sleep works now too. That drops the idle power usage when connected to wifi (measured WLAN+BT rail only) from nearly 400mW to 130mW. Still too high compared to downstream, but a big improvement. And while both GPT-5.5 and Claude Opus 4.8 were unable to pinpoint previous issues I've had, Fable 5 did nail it in one prompt. Not sure what to think of that... #mobilelinux #pixel9a

Hitze-Special im Kuketz-Blog: Unter allen Unterstützern wird ein neues Google Pixel 9a mit GrapheneOS vergeben.
Wichtig: Es zählen ausschließlich Banküberweisungen, die am 30. Juni eingehen und im Verwendungszweck »Gluthitze-Special« enthalten. Echtzeitüberweisung ist daher sinnvoll.
Mitte Juli wird per Zufall ausgelost. 👇

As an update: the ACPM based thermal probes and power readings are wired up now. This also means that running a CPU intensive task is safe now (I hope). Before, the phone could have run the chip too hot, as dynamic CPU frequencies were already working. I’ve verified that the big core now stays below 90°C under sustained load. In a previous test, it briefly reached 125°C according to the thermal probes (I quickly killed the load). That’s one way you can kill your device #mobilelinux #pixel9a

The code for my Pixel 9a experiments is now available at https://git.deusch.me/pixel-mainline. I’m including a big AI disclaimer in the repository descriptions. Anyone using that code has to be aware that I created it with LLMs as an (ongoing) experiment. While I always have the LLM validate commits against downstream code and traces, and also verify that things work on the device, there might be problems. I won’t take blame if you build on top of this code and your device gets damaged

WiFi required getting PCIe working first. Also, there’s now a very basic fuel gauge for the battery percentage. Most of my time over the weekend was spent on debugging sleep to idle though. I went down that rabbit hole after I found that postmarketOS automatically triggers suspend after a bit, which caused the phone to need a hard reset. Sleep to idle works quite reliably now. Deep sleep is still broken and triggers the ACPM watchdog… #postmarketOS #mobilelinux #pixel9a

Z lekkim opóźnieniem, ale #grapheneos zainstalowany na #pixel9a 👍
Instalacja błyskawiczna, a teraz zabawa z konfiguracją aplikacji.
Sam szukałem tych informacji, więc dla następnych szukających:
1. W Private Space z usługami Google:
- IKO działa, płatności BLIK też,
- Erste działa, płatności nie działają - podobno problemem jest właśnie Private Space
- mObywatel działa
- McDonald - nie działa :D (ale to tylko na plus)2. Na głównym profilu głównie #openSource z #obtainium ewentualnie dla mniej istotnych aplikacji #fdroid i #aurorastore - ale te dwa ostatnie będę chciał docelowo zlikwidować

Colours Of Roses
Last year, I posted some pictures of flowers growing in Cathedral Yard, here and here. This time I give you roses of different colours. Featuring raindrops. -

Update: GPU works. Static frequency for now, but finally the UI is smooth. Previously I used pixman software rendering, which is not a pleasant experience. It requires a custom mesa build as the Mali G715 is not supported in upstream mesa. I am amazed that Claude was able to write a working Mali GPU driver with only downstream kbase code and panthor v10 / v12. I have not tested conformance, so it might have issues, but smooth Wayland rendering is still 🤯 #postmarketOS #mobilelinux #pixel9a
