Almost all of us who migrated from Nokia N9 to Jolla phone were/are missing the LPM or Low Power Mode feature even after 8 months of usage.

Worry not, remember when the code of LPM was found in Sailfish’ source codes? Not remembering? It’s okay because I failed to find a link for it but it was ages ago even before the phone got released that developers managed to find the word “LPM” in Sailfish OS’ released source code and we were quite hyped about the fact that we’re going to have out LPM mode saved which was a big deal and it still is.

Then came the phone specifications and the fact that we now had an IPS panel instead of an AMOLED or Super AMOLED that allows individual pixels to lit up when it is needed therefore we lost hope on any sort of LPM on Jolla phone.

But, watch this video to activate yours!







For enabling (In case you didn’t watch the video) you can use these codes below:

devel-su

<Your Password> pkcon update

pkcon install mce-tools

mcetool --set-low-power-mode=enabled

And for disabling:

mcetool --set-low-power-mode=disabled

Nicolas Suffys at JollaFR was the first one who made the tutorial, obviously in French but he was kind enough to ping me along and have me using his post. So shout out to him 😉

Also, according to ReviewJolla, this option will be included in the next update! Let’s see.
