Two independent, default-off toggles under Settings › Radio.
Pwr save: hardware RX duty-cycle (SX126x SetRxDutyCycle via
startReceiveDutyCycleAuto). The chip cycles RX↔sleep and wakes on a preamble —
no MCU state machine; recvRaw reads the packet exactly as in continuous RX.
Falls back to continuous RX on non-SX126x. (Replaces an earlier software-CAD
state machine that fought the hardware: polling a warm-sleeping chip gave a
phantom-busy channel that stalled TX ~4 s and dropped ACKs in the scan gaps.)
Auto pwr: Adaptive Power Control. tx_power_dbm becomes a ceiling; actual TX
power tracks the reverse-link SNR margin (measured above the per-SF demod floor,
EWMA-smoothed, proportional step with a deadband). Feedback comes from direct /
room-server ACKs and, for channels (no ACK), from hearing a repeater rebroadcast
our own flood; a lost confirmation ramps power back up so channel sends can't get
stranded below what the repeaters can hear.
Prefs schema 0xC0DE0009 (rx_powersave, tx_apc). Radio page / name bar show the
live TX power; noise floor reads n/a while duty-cycling.

Settings › Sound gains an "AD sound" row, and Auto-Advert notes the audible
"in range" heartbeat: the device chirps on every received advert (any node),
melody chosen by AD sound; there's no off, so silence it via the Buzzer
setting. built-in still chirps.

Add the Settings › System "Units" (Metric/Imperial) row and update the
Trail action-menu entry from the old four-way km/h·mph·min/km·min/mi
"Units" cycle to a Speed/Pace "Readout" toggle within the global system.

README:
- Fix typo "offical" → "official"
- File names in Firmware Variants table now match workflow output
(solo-<version>-oled.uf2 / solo-<version>-eink.uf2)
- Un-comment the E-ink Display section (now fully supported)
- Clock Screen: "sensor values" → "data fields" (covers Batt%, Nodes, Msgs)
- Tools Screen: mention nearby nodes and auto-advert in the highlight
- Promote Screenshot Tool to its own top-level section (was buried under
Contributing); fix `uv run tools/screenshot.py` invocation path
Docs:
- favourites_dial: document the 3rd pin-picker tier (all chat contacts
fallback) added in 0e0e5b93
- clock_screen: Altitude source clarified — onboard sensor (GPS or
barometric), not always GPS
- message_screen: blank lines around image tables that were inlined
Code:
- UITask.cpp: rename leftover plus_y/plus_label locals to solo_y/solo_label
in the splash-screen Solo banner
Workflow:
- workflow_dispatch builds previously labelled firmware with the branch
name (GITHUB_REF_NAME). Resolve BUILD_VERSION to the tag when run on a
tag push, else dev-<short-sha> so manual runs produce
solo-dev-abc1234-oled.uf2 etc.
Cleanup:
- remove stray docs/solo_features/settings_screen/set_scr_1_eink copy.png
