Missing features at /e/ vs. Stock FPOS on FP6

I can confirm most of the points on FP6 with /e/OS 3.0.4:

  • there is simply no settings for “tap to wake” - is this just a matter of time, until it will integrated to /e/OS - or will it simply just not show up there for any reason? (I will ask supprt) (Gitlab issue)
  • “Tap to sleep” → always worked during my tests
  • GCam works quite OK for all three cameras and makes MUCH better images (also night & macro) than stock camera app (open camera) - but no zoom is possible, and the gallery from preview is not working (I tried “MWP 8.8” - any better recomendation?) - will upload some images later…
    Oh… Video recording does not work with this Port :-/ Just crashes… So can’t test the mic… (made some more tests - I think I solved it)
  • also for me “inverse layout” of navigation buttons does not show any effect - will contact support. So for me the FP6 is not usable in one-hand mode (for right handers) :frowning: (Gitlab issue)
  • there is simply no setting for “always on display (AOD)”. Anyway I can use e.g. LED Blinker to replace the missing notification LED, but it consumes about 2-3% per hour of battery, because it can’t use the nativ AOD feature FPOS does support. Will ask support.

edit: added the gitlab issues of /e/ OS
