For Android L devices, it has been reported that the device might power up its screen fully (note I didn't say 'wake up') automatically when it detects that you are picking it up, or when you double-tap the screen. It also reportedly has a low power black and white "ambient display" (ala the Android Wear devics) which allows you to see notifications without waking up the phone all the way[1]. (All of this assuming appropriate hardware support, of course.)

Modern devices will soon have not just a "awake" and a "asleep" modes; there will be (well, is now) a much wider spectrum of modes, with the goal of using the minimum amount of power while still providing use functionality to the user. - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
