[Bug 1317860] Re: the phone should switch itself off before completely draining battery

 

mzanetti mentions that this bug is critical to him, because every time a
frieza device reaches 0% charge he's blocked from further using it
because it needs to charge up to some safe value before being able to
turn it on.

Title:
  the phone should switch itself off before completely draining battery

Status in Canonical System Image:
  In Progress
Status in Ubuntu UX:
  Fix Committed
Status in indicator-power package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  the phone should switch itself off at around ~5% remaining battery.

  This is to preserve a little battery for use cases such as:

  * turn it back on once or twice for urgent short phone calls
  * prevent the battery from going into a state where it can't be charged any more
  * have enough power to turn itself on again and trigger an alarm

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power#auto-off>: "The device should hibernate
  (PC) or power off (phone/tablet) if both of these things are true: *
  there is less than 2% battery remaining * there has been more than 3%
  battery remaining at some point since the last time the device
  hibernated or powered off."
