Today I made test on sun featuring dirk's solar other half and Jolla in airplane mode with my custom kernel allowing CPU going idle while charging. The phone is really charging - see attached picture.
But I guess it's still not optimal as you can see charging current between 44..71mA - i dont know how much is the panel supposed to give, but IMO it should be more. But i have still some ideas to try...

I voted: "Waiting for reviews", but I think I want to change my vote to: "Waiting for imfamous KitchenSinkTOH."
I've said it before, if you can combine 2 or more TOH's & do it well, then you'll have single-handedly made Jolla's device far more appealing than it currently is.
You also will have convinced me to finally 'jump thorough hoops' to buy a Jolla, even though it's not locally available/supported.
Oh and it's infamous, not imfamous

Jolla is available in my locale but I have never felt the appeal. However a combined keyboard + solar panel TOH would finally persuade me. (Oh, and I have also said it before

it is not really motivating when i am developing a lot of stuff and everyone is saying 'oh, if you join them all together and add battery within 2mm, then i will be interested'

TBC, I don't think anyone's suggesting that you do anything that's unrealistic/infeasible*, we realise everything you're doing now is still a learning curve.
Combining can come later, much later, if you/Jolla are still around...
Anyway, it was you that put the Kitchen-sink TOH option in the poll, hence making it a point of discussion, so you must at least be aware of the demand/interest
*well, most of us anyway

so
- you know you asked earlier
- you know i answered earlier
- you know it is not going to happen
- you have already expressed your demand/interest via the poll
- you know that i am aware of the demand/interest, hence and because of the poll
but still you feel the need to express your feelings in a topic that is only about this concept and getting this concept working.
feel free to start a topic about the kitchensink-toh to poll for demand and discuss what needs to be combined, but i am not making a 200$ toh that adds 12mm to your phone.
this whole discussion is off-topic and unnecessary as it is a complete repetition of earlier statements.
anyway, more updates on the SolarTOH tomorrow (hopefully)

Sorry, I did not mean to sound demotivating, quite the opposite. Try reading my post as, "Hey, dirkvl, you are doing a fantastic job! Even I, who do not have a Jolla and never intended to buy one, am impressed so much that I am starting to consider getting one, only to have an excuse to get some of your creations!"
Better? Don't worry, I will just shut up...

anyway, thanks for your compliment, sorry for the harsh response (i am hungry) and in the future please take all your suggestions about kitchensinking to the designated kitchensink topic.
