Unfortunatelly this AOSP build does not support wakeup device which causes if official app is not running the device will go to deepsleep. Due to the lack of power button, just a hard reset (unplug) can wake up the device.
Wake up on wave and touch feature are implemented in the app btw that was the original purpose of the app.
This feature enables to run an application as a default app such as HomeAsistant.
This feature enables utilization of light sensor.
