For the first time I can ever remember with an Android device (in nearly 2 years) - nothing needs fixing! Starting to get a bit bored! Any new features will be welcomed though, but as it stands everything just works perfectly :)
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
Stable is fine with me for the moment, means I don't have to worry about bugs while I am preparing for exams. but trust me when I say things are going to get interesting ;)

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] phillevy:
I totally agree with stability being the priority - that's where some other well known ROM's seem to stumble. I'm intrigued and really looking forward to your future developements as I know you will only add a feature if it is genuinely worth having and stability is maintained.
[Nexus S Android Development] Zehlek:
SMS like Sense
[Nexus S Android Development] Zehlek:
Is it normal that when I open up rom manager it doesn't pop up saying has been granted superuser permissions like with root explorer?
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
I thought it only showed that in RM when the actual functions were being used? Many other apps check for SU access upon start, rather than when it is needed. No issues there :)

Remember to get that FM radio in there. Then it'll stand out :D
[Nexus S Android Development] jbarns:
thanks for the great rom, really stable!

I just came from CM7, got too impatient waiting for their updates.

The only thing I miss from CM7 is end call using the power button. Is this a possible feature in the future? (unless I can't find the setting)

That way I hang up and lock my phone all in one action. I'm so used to it now.
[Nexus S Android Development] Zehlek:
Definitely agree
[Nexus S Android Development] Bob_UK:
Under "Accessibilty settings" I have "Power button ends call" setting.
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
Quick question here, does anyone actually use the 'Email' app included with infin1ty? I have never touched it once, not on any rom, using gmail myself.

Should I remove it and offer it in the extra download package?

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] CraneGuy:
Everything fwd to gmail so wouldn't miss it.
[Nexus S Android Development] Zehlek:
I never use it
[Nexus S Android Development] azagoth:
Actually, I do, for my corporate eMails, contacts and calendar (exchange)

This is a must have for me, and I'm using it even more than my gmail (personal emails)
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
Would an optional download upon that initial setup like the Google settings be acceptable there? I understand it does have its uses, its just for a large number it is unused, and takes up space.

In that case, what apps that are currently included does everyone think should be optional downloads (to keep the base nice and lean)? I could also do a full version for those who would have poor internet connections.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] bluecluenj:
I actually use it almost as much as the gmail. Love your ROM it's the best one I've ever tried.
[Nexus S Android Development] azagoth:
Well, the decision is yours, but this is the only way to receive emails for any other services than gmail. So it feels to me as a must have in any ROM...

From a more personal point of view, I'm using it everyday, so I prefer it inside :)

Anyway, thanks for your ROM!

Finally a stable Nexus S without any random reboot for a full month !
[Nexus S Android Development] RtOaNn:
Actually I do too. For my Exchange emails.

Think it would be good if it remains.

[Nexus S Android Development] Graham19:
I use it to get rid of conversation view.

Given that Google gave the option to remove online, I don't know why they haven't updated the gmail app to have the same option!

Maybe email is used after all. What other apps are included but not used by everyone then?

[Nexus S Android Development] buachaille:
K9 mail far far better. I need it for work email. Used to use native but it is very bad.
[Nexus S Android Development] buachaille:
People would be better with k9 bundled. Stable - stock not reliable.
[Nexus S Android Development] RonnieRuff:
Most people in the corporate world use it to connect to an exchange server. I get 150 exchange emails a day. That said I use touchdown and uninstall the email app. Most use the email app though cuz touchdown is 8-20 bucks.
[Nexus S Android Development] buachaille:
Jonathon, flashed this last night and it seems very stable and setting it up was simpler than most roms. Impressed so far.

But is there a way to get camera shutter sound back. I use the camera in awkward work environments and I rely on the shutter sound to let me know I got the shot. Really need this feature. I've flashed previous infin1ty versions but always removed them, and this is the main reason.
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
I will get you a working version soon, it's not hard.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] sagarpruthi:
i use the email app for my work IMAP account.
[Nexus S Android Development] buachaille:
That would be great.

Why is there never an option in any rom that I've ever flashed to enable / disable the sound. I know lots of people like the camera silent, and then there's people like me that don't. Seems like making it optional would suit everybody.

Been using this for quite a few hours now and I am liking it as no errors at all. Everything running smooth. One thing I miss from cm settings though, is the option to have call buttons next to contacts in all contact view modes. Is that something you might include in a future release?
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
There is meant to be an option in blandroid (and then infin1ty) to control camera sounds, except that part requires c and the control is in Java, which can't talk to each other. I will try to implement a different method myself if I get the time.

What contact view modes are you talking about exactly?

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] buachaille:
Hmm, that code problem sounds complicated.

In the main contact list on stock type roms and infin1ty, you have to open the contact up before you see the dial button, but in cm7 or roms that include bits of it like super aosp and ns-collab, you can set it to show green dial buttons in the main contact list, favourites, and call log.

-edit-

I just checked. Your rom has the dial buttons in call log and favourites but not contacts.
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
There is an easy solution to it though, simply have a silent sound file and swap between the two ;)

I will have a look at the commits for contacts in CM7. To be honest I rarely call using my phone, mainly text and data but still.

Also, just some general knowledge for you, both nscollab and SuperAOSP are CM7 based, nscollab is easy to tell, but SuperAOSP not so much, as there are loads of changes on top, like MIUI.

[Nexus S Android Development] Zehlek:
Is there anyway to get the camera to record at 720p like the Nexus One? I read that it is capable just needs a tweak
[Nexus S Android Development] Graham19:
Here's my $0.02 worth: do what you think is right, Jonathon. You're never going to keep everyone happy all of the time.

If that means I have to install an email client separately then so he it.

Personally, missing apps are not a deal breaker. They can be downloaded.

It's not going to put me off using infin1ty.
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
At reduced framerates, I believe so yes. I can see what was done on the N1 and see if something similar can be done here, although I'm not guaranteeing anything.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] Zehlek:
That would be great, thanks
[Nexus S Android Development] buachaille:
Jonathon,

If you are saying I can just replace a file then that will be easy. I will do it with root explorer. I know where to get the camera sound, but where in the file system do I find the silent file I need to replace?
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
Please try this unity themed (my ex-theme with this dark UI) cameragoogle.apk for me. Delete regular camera.apk and move this across, probably clear the app data in /data/data/ too.

http://download.jonathongrigg.com/apps/CameraGoogle.apk

I will be fixing the sounds issue soon if all goes well, and depending on how much spare time I get.

A friend has also suggested a video for the rom, does anyone know someone who is good at these? Or even if you want to help, just let me know.

[Nexus S Android Development] Zehlek:
Anyone else experience this? Sometimes when I use the camera it shows an error to mount USB storage to use camera and so I have to reboot.

infin1ty 1.3 issues

Hi,

I have tried infin1ty 1.3.0 quickly and I have one outstanding issue which made me revert to CM7 nightly #80, and that is the fact that Skype crashed right after logging in.

I also feel the ROM a little bit laggy (I have just restored all my ~150 apps with Titanium Backup, the synchronization was still running).

Some really small thing: I like the the position of the power widget better on CM (above the carrier name).

This thread is way too long, so unfortunately I cannot follow it, but I'll give a new try of infin1ty latest version. I really like that the video chat is working. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] buachaille:
Ahhhh :D Back on the computer now. So much easier to type :p

Thanks for your reply. I did as you said and the new camera is installed and working. I get the focus sound but not the shutter, but don't worry. I like the rom anyway as it hasn't given me a single bit of trouble since i installed it last night, so I'm keeping it on my phone for a while I reckon.

I know you've got a lot of stuff to do and loads of people firing questions at you (and exams to pass) so don't waste any more time over this.

Thanks again :)
[Nexus S Android Development] buachaille:
Was this after a titanium backup restore. I've had similar stuff happen with smart keyboard pro and I have to remove it and reinstall it from the market (not on this rom - on sup aosp and nscollab. It didn't happen when I flashed infinity). Maybe not the roms problem.
[Nexus S Android Development] lilnev:
I also agree with this. Don't waste too much time trying to make it right for everybody. One more app or one less app included in the rom doesn't matter. Do what you think is best.

It's not like we have a space issue on the Nexus S as the HTC Desire has.
[Nexus S Android Development] BrokenWall:
I love K-9 its free and much better then the default mail APP plus it works great cause Titanium can back it up and it works fine on all ROMS, whereas using the stock email client across some ROMs wont restore properly.

Still waiting on the volume control options for skipping music tracks, once that is back then I will be using this as my default, and I know this is something you want as well Jonathon

Not yet, no.

[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
I will still be slimming things down a bit, I find that while space isn't an issue, less apps leads to being more responsive. Anything I remove though will easily be added back in.

[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
I've never had it personally, I've heard of it on other phones and ROMs though. Rather than a reboot, try opening calculator (someones signature, never tried it though).

If anything, the fact that its USB storage related, maybe ask in the Netarchy thread, I think there were some USB related issues discussed there.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
I do not use Skype, so this issue has not happened to me before. Has this issue occurred on any other 2.3.4 rom? I believe #80 is still 2.3.3 which is why I am asking.

If you are experiencing lag, you are most likely still on your first boot. Please reboot once (maybe twice if you have lots of apps) as there are scripts and other things I have run to clean stuff up, and rebooting is required for these to self remove. Also, all thumbnails are removed upon installation, so image related scrolling can be slower until they are rebuilt.

Status toggles are as they are right now, I wanted it to be different myself. Originally I wanted them at the bottom of the screen, much like the new MIUI layout (this was before that new layout), just above the pull bar thing, but it didn't work.

I will be changing the look of everything in the shade for infin1ty².

K9 doesn't play nice with my work Exchange account that's why I stick with the native app. Somehow I don't get authentication problems.

[Nexus S Android Development] jonjon68:
oops, wrong forum.
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
A few days ago I flashed a CM7 kang to see what this new browser fuss was about, now I am going to include it with infin1ty! It really did feel faster especially on content rich sites, due to the upgraded JavaScript engine.

I have a huge list for infin1ty², however this time, I actually want to get them all done first before releasing :)

FM Radio?
[Nexus S Android Development] Dr_Ownage:
From what i can see there are little to no bugs with 1.3 so take your time and give us a big release that we can all enjoy ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
That would take a huge amount of time to complete, so I don't really want to have it included. Eventually I will get around to it (I discovered tunein the other day, has all my local radio stations so its not a priority so much for me).

720p recording, on the other hand, I will try to work on and get something done :)

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] Zehlek:
Sweet thanks. I can't wait field update :-)
[Nexus S Android Development] moordown66:
The reasons why I would love to see an FM radio on the Nexus S....

1) I work in continental Europe quite regularly and the data usage costs for listening to radio via Tune-In are cripplingly expensive. I mean, they’re massive so it’s pretty much useless when you are away which is why FM is so massively convenient.

2) To prove it can be done ;)

3) It would make this ROM stand out even more than it does now.

Nice rom, infin1ty for Nexus s .Congratulation.
[Nexus S Android Development] lilnev:
Jonathan, I found that removing notifications with your slide feature is very difficult to do one handed. Is it possible to change this so it doesn't need to be as accurate?

Is anyone else experiencing this?
[Nexus S Android Development] winteum:
responsiveness of the UI.

After using infin1ty for 2 weeks I realized that the ROM is stable and the features are great.

But I'm not satisfied with the responsiveness of the UI.

I compared two Nexus S. One with stock 2.3.4 and one with infin1ty 1.3.0

In general the responsiveness look the same but sometimes infin1ty response opening some apps with some lag and even to open the interface to place calls I found some lag.

Someone here had the same exeperience like me?

Where can I read a reference about the advantage of the UV use ?
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
Not sure of a reference (I will write one up for my future wiki regarding android stuff). Basically because not every phone is the same (slight differences in manufacturing etc) Samsung has to cater for this when setting power levels (voltages). Individual phones can usually run on less power than this, so the purpose of UV is to do exactly that. This has some advantages in that the CPU uses less power (longer battery) and generates less heat.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] winteum:
And how to know if my individual phone can or cannot run on less power?

Is there not risk of damage of the CPU in a long term?
[Nexus S Android Development] winteum:
Today I changed the setting to "only some animattions" and the UI became fast as or more than stock.

The lag issues was about "full animation" UI.

Using stock UI, by default is set to "full animation" also?
[Nexus S Android Development] phanboy:
No worries. Thanks so much for a great daily-grinder rom. :D
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
Not for UV, as the only possible damage is a reboot. Overvolt, however has some dangers, ie frying your CPU so try not to OV if you can help it.

I feel like Android has been ripped off by a certain fruity company today, and I don't like it. I don't think its fair that because other companies don't patent software ideas and/or release it as open source that said company can use them, when anyone who tries to use their ideas gets sent a lawsuit!

To that extent, I personally want to make Android as smooth and refined as possible, and wont stop until I have done that. I believe there is a balance between closed and secure and open, something my future ambitions will promote.

Infin1ty² will truely have no limits, I will make sure of that. Everything should be elegant and just work, while still providing all the power features Android is recognized for.

@Nickwarn

Can you please check /system/etc/init.d using RE or even ES and see if there is 10mountfix somewhere in there? I'm gonna try again after a reboot on my phone and see if it's dropped. Maybe it needs to be a recursive permission... I will test it out anyway. Its not that important in daily use, it really just mounts the files used by Quadrant in RAM or something I think. Cheating the benchmark in a way ;)

I will look into the battery bar idea, and definitely include it as an option. I will also try and add and then move apps to Settings, such as Voodoo control, Theme Manager etc.

Does this new update have a new.theme ? If so any updated screenshots?
[Nexus S Android Development] dan13l:
I flashed it and had a bit of a play, but things seemed to be acting a little strangely so I've reverted back to my previous rom.

Notably Tweetdeck, while no able to run and not FC immediately, wouldn't pull down any new tweets. I have a suspicion that it was grabbing them while the phone was asleep, but not awake, which suggests the Wifi was the reason it wouldn't update. Official Twitter app was fine though.

Also Titanium wasn't behaving itself at all, kept giving me a plain black screen, stuck asking for superuser permissions, etc.

Had trouble with Rom Manager trying to flash back to my original backup too. Just things generally seemed to be running a bit unusually...made me uneasy.

I'll definitely keep flashing as updates come out though!
[Nexus S Android Development] randy92:
No problems so far :D running lastest infin1ty rom
[Nexus S Android Development] Jonathon Grigg:
Thanks for the feedback, can everyone who has had issues do me a favour and (backup first) do a clean install, restore the apps in question (TweetDeck etc) and see if the issues arise? I personally don't use TweetDeck which may be why. If you want to try something else before you do a clean install, wipe dalvik cache and then reinstall 0.2.1 over the top (no wipe). Let me know how these go.

There are new screenshots in my Picasa album, should always be every time a new visual update is posted.

I'm very busy this afternoon so I wont be able to do any work today, but I am free after that! I will upload a mirror of 0.2.1 soon for those still having Mediafire issues.
