The Astrophotography mode can finally be forced on (October Feature Drop)
No more wondering if the phone started the 4 minute exposure or if it just decided that my finger pressing the shutter button was enough vibrations for it to cancel the astro photo and just has trouble to focus so it takes a bit longer than usual to take the photo!

Not complaining, just wondering - I was upgrading my system and noticed that the net upgrade size is -748 MB, with just a few important-looking packages set to be upgraded. So I checked and it's wine - going from 1338 MB (9.9-1) to just 587 MB (9.9-2).
I checked the commits to the package repo, and as far as I can tell, this is the only change between 9.9-1 and 9.9-2 - it removes a bunch of hardening flags and that's it. I know these often come at the price of increasing the final build size, but more than double?
For context, the Arch-wide flags are defined here, if I understand it correctly
The battery life on Android 14 is actually insane once it settles down [7a]
Sure, this is very light usage - just 5 hours SoT over more than 2 days of usage - but I couldn't get this phone to even make it to two days with similar usage on Android 13. And it's comparable to my previous budget phone, so the only thing the 7a was worse at is now fixed for me.
