[/COLOR]WOW!!!! Can you say BATTERY LIFE!!!!!! I have NEVER gone 9 hours of the charger with 50% battery life left. This configuration is AWESOME! And stable, AND FAST!!! I think I can finally stop reverting back to Oxygen 2.3.2.[/QUOTE]

Hmm.. I am running OndemadX/sio (100-1000) no overclock. Deep Idle on. My average battery life is 12-13 hours on heavy use (whatsapp, google plus updates and notifications and facebook messenger and some games). On light use it has gone up to 15- 19 hours or more depending.

I know others can get more but I guess they are better off then me when it comes to tweaking.

Air Kernel 3.6 + this rom = god like.

---------- Post added at 10:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 AM ----------

are you using deep idle with the configuration above?
[Nexus S Android Development] vis80k:
followed the link...there doesn't seem to be one for pixel rom.

do you plan on modifying the full mod for your rom to include this? it looks good.
[Nexus S Android Development] blackhemi4x4:
Camera?

Decided to try this ROM and so far I love it. I cant get over the battery life. This was one of my biggest issues.

The only thing I noticed that I would like is the camera to work like the one in many other roms. The tap to focus feature. Is there a way to take the camera from another rom to replace this one? The one in cyanogenmod was perfect.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Perhaps there may be a treat somewhere called "Slight Touch" including :

Recent Apps in Status Bar (Evilisto's new tweak)

Touch To focus Camera

Apex Launcher 1.02 as a system app (choice with stock launcher so as to keep some system wallpapers)

Perhaps it's a full ROM or perhaps its a mod_pack to go on top of Lite Touch. Who knows ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
Yes, I am using deep idle. I am using the same configuration that the developer is using.
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
I am so ready for this. Awesome.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
It shouldn't be tooooo hard to find :)
[Nexus S Android Development] foxmolder1985:
Thank you! Your work is really appreciated..

Just downloaded, i'll flash it later.
[Nexus S Android Development] vis80k:
do you mean it is already done and available somewhere?

edit. did some search but did not find slight touch... above quote from u sounds as if it is already uploaded somewhere...hm...

clarification whether to expect with future release or a link would be helpful to ease my mind...
[Nexus S Android Development] foxmolder1985:
It's under "download". Scroll down untill the end of the page, there's "system_apex.zip", and above it there's the "PixelRom160SlightTouch_160312.zip"

The last but one

http://wildestpixel.co.uk/index.php/downloads
[Nexus S Android Development] vis80k:
thank you! I only searched thru the thread...

btw, is this either slight mod or full mod? can't have both?
[Nexus S Android Development] fratilitau:
is there any way to fix the facebook sync? for me it always syncs all my contacts even when i click sycn only existing contacts....
[Nexus S Android Development] foxmolder1985:
I think you can add the full mod pack to this, slight is like the "lite" with the addons that wildestpixel said.

I was used to use HaxSync, the "paid" version.. It worked great, but no "news feed" were displayed. Don't know if they have updated it since I uninstalled
[Nexus S Android Development] ll_l_x_l_ll:
i am having a problem with downloading stuff from the market after i downloaded the rom.

i cant download anything from the market. it says cant download to an error
[Nexus S Android Development] sykomaniac:
Yes - use HaxSync from the market

---------- Post added at 10:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 AM ----------

Clear the market data System Settings --> Apps --> ALL --> Market/Play Store --> Click Clear Data & Clear Cache
[Nexus S Android Development] 4I-I:
Can i flash slight touch over full touch with cache and dalvik wipe?

Or do i have to reflash light touch and flash slight touch then?

Thanks! ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] alen1901:
Do you guys use SetCPU profiles with NSTools? Is it smart, is iz necessary?

[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Hi Sykomaniac,

I've been (abortively) trying to locate in smali (phonewindowmanager) the way in which I can apply Evilisto's search to recent apps mod.

As I've only smali and bad dex2jar and DJ Java Decompiler output of reverse engineered android.policy.jar I can't simply add Evilisto's alterations (which are in pure and clean java) to achieve the mod on either my Lite Touch 4.04 android.policy or your android.policy in what is termed as the Fully Touched mod_pack.

Is this anything that you can assist with ?

Thanks in advance,
[Nexus S Android Development] vis80k:
slight touch and full touch mods are independent from each other...

I just settled with full for now...
[Nexus S Android Development] sykomaniac:
Possibly but I haven't been able to do anything as my daughter is poorly at the minute. I will have a look when she is finally better!
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
Here is the million dollar question. Does the slight touch ROM have the same battery life as the light touch ROM?
[Nexus S Android Development] tevil:
im enjoying this rom so much with AK and the OP settings im thinking of actually starting a new setup fully from scratch with fresh downloaded apps from market ETC instead of all my back ups meshed together.

nice work
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
Any way to make Air Kernel come with the ROM, as in part of the ROM itself or no?
[Nexus S Android Development] kamikaze666:
Hey guys,

I just flashed a few ROM's just to try them out. I installed Pixel Rom, tested it and wanted to try something else. Now, every time I want to wipe the Dalvik cach I get an error : E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]. I want to know. Does this prevent the Dalvik cache from being wiped ? And also, is there any way to fix it?
[Nexus S Android Development] mixtapes08:
That is normal in nexus s.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] :
Don't worry about that, the Nexus S doesn't have an SD Card slot, so no sd-ext partition.
[Nexus S Android Development] fratilitau:
i get the same error...it means nothing i think...i got no problems doing stuff in cwm advanced
[Nexus S Android Development] tevil:
i always thought you got the error because he says in the OP that he moved the DC to another partition.

If you do it a few times youll eventually see it say dalvich wiped.
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
Question, do you have the newer version as a zip or baked into the ROM somewhere? It asks me to update it every once in a while.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Hoping she's better soon bro.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Are you able to update it ?
[Nexus S Android Development] ilnanny:
The link doesn't work.. Please fix it. I like this rom

Nexus S i9023 Italia
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
I have not tried for fear of messing up the sweet setup I have now. I will do a backup and try it now just to see.
[Nexus S Android Development] tevil:
i ran the update and its still fine. go for it, be a man live with your mistakes! :p
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
I have found a new issue. I can't seem to boot into recovery. As in Volume up + the power button is not working. GRRRRR.... And CWM force closes. I might need to update it and re-flash recovery yes?

---------- Post added at 10:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

Ok, flashed CWM from ROM Manager and was able to reboot into recovery.

QUESTION: I see mod packs for slight touch and blue circle. I am assuming that I can just flash those two and be all good correct?
[Nexus S Android Development] blackhemi4x4:
Thank you!

I really did not think it was possible, but I now have a nearly perfect ROM! This far exceeds anything else Ive tried on my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] fratilitau:
that mod doesn't work with full touch toggles.
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
So, the test of the slight touch mod begins. I will report back later today after I see how the battery and UI performs.
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
UPDATE AND PSA: Do not update Apex launcher. It will mess with some of your widgets.
[Nexus S Android Development] dinos3:
Why use nstool? I prefere only setcpu

you can flash slight touch over full touch, with cache and dalvik wipe..

______________

What is difference than slight and lite touch ?
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Slight touch should only go over light touch. To avoid confusion (from your post) I will pull slight touch as a mod so the whole rom needs to be flashed.

And to be very clear there are numerous reasons for using NSTools.
[Nexus S Android Development] dinos3:
Okey :)

I have used before only for bld . Now i from root explorer configurate bld :)

And for cpu use only setcpu.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Can you clarify ?
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
After the update Beautiful Widgets Widgets that were in place all stopped updating information. The Clock stopped. Weather would not update. And Battery would not change.

I did find that the fix seems to be to flash the ROM, Kernel, and Launcher all in the same CWM session. I haven't had a request for an update from Apex Launcher since.
[Nexus S Android Development] dinos3:
Where i can download only battery icon flashable zip from lite pixel (circle or number) ?
[Nexus S Android Development] greenfrogz:
Anyone happened to find out that tasker's "System Lock" task will result in a restart? I am using that task to turn off my phone display.
[Nexus S Android Development] neosynthesis:
MMS actually works (Wind Mobile)

God knows how many ROMS I've tried. This (Lite) is the only ROM with MMS working on Wind Mobile out of box. No tweaking APNs, no SMSC tweaking in hex. Just worked after booting it up, and signing into my google account.
[Nexus S Android Development] vigorito:
This is called good battery on nexus s! Im using full touch and air kernel 3,6, but i have question in tweaks section/toggles how to make it shows on screens? I have regular toggles for wi fi,sync that came with rom but how to make it shows other options?
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
That is really good. But has it started to lag yet or no? When I tried fully touched it started to lag after a few days.
[Nexus S Android Development] jokkir:
What's your screen on time?
[Nexus S Android Development] Dorilife:
Doesn't look like much..at most 1 hour?
[Nexus S Android Development] vigorito:
This is 4th day everything is still fine
[Nexus S Android Development] JakeOcn:
Any comments on SlighTouch? Anyway downloading now, will report back :)
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
Slight touch is fast, stable, and has great battery life. I can never get the numbers some people get because when my phone is in my bedroom over night it is subject to weak Wifi and 3G connections. But once I leave my place, the phones battery performs like a champ.
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
Not sure if it's just me or a bug due to the app but after installing Slight Touch when I use this app called "Screen Off and Lock" and set it as device administrator so I can activate it by long-pressing the Search button, the OS restarts, I.e. the screen goes blank, the hardware buttons lights up, then I see the boot animation. However, it doesn't ask for my SIM card pin, which makes me think that it's not really a reboot but more of a restart only.
[Nexus S Android Development] greenfrogz:
I met with the same problem too, but I was using Tasker to trigger the Screen Off.

Further research showed that Google changed the Screen Off Behavior in 4.0.4, so I afraid there's nothing we can do now.
[Nexus S Android Development] SurgeonKyle:
This question has been asked a handful of times, but I'd like to make a point we're interested: Any plans on porting this over to the Nexus S 4G? We'd kill to have more solid roms.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
I may be able to find the time to do it tomorrow.

You need to let me know if this kernel works with any NS4G 4.03 ROMS - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1420542
[Nexus S Android Development] SurgeonKyle:
Thanks for the quick response, I (and surely others) will appreciate it dearly, I'll look through the kernel and flash it ASAP, and to avoid clutter I'll update this post with whatever comes of it.

Thanks again Pixel.

UPDATE: Flashed Simple Kernel v1.11 (Voodoo) and everything SEEMS to work so far. One reboot after installing it and Codename Android 1.5.5 'updating' the files, but it's working. Only issue is that, well, the phone can't retrieve voltage values or modify cpu governor, min, or max using the built in performance tools. I'll keep this on here and update in a few hours or so, hopefully everything should be fine, or as fine as it's going to get using a kernel made for a different model.

UPDATE II: Seems the kernel broke root access, which is why the CPU controls wouldn't work, I'll have to use the solutions mentioned in the kernel post and then all should be well. And, simply re-flashing the SU zip fixed the issue, but built in CPU controls still grayed out on CNA 1.5.5, eagerly await trying out this 4G build, but sadly I don't have 4G coverage in my area to test out that aspect.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Just beginning an upload of a test of Slight Touch 4G to http://www.wildestpixel.co.uk/files/slightly4g.zip

May be ready in 30 mins - I'll let you know when fully uploaded.

It may bootloop and it may not work - I've cobbled it together. On the other hand it may be fine.
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
Weird thing is I used the same app in the Lite Touch version and everything functioned perfectly. I don't know what's different in the Slight Touch version. Thanks for the answer, anyway.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
4g test version should be there now.
[Nexus S Android Development] SurgeonKyle:

[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Unless you can amend the first lines of updater script from crespo to crespo4g before I get back ...........
[Nexus S Android Development] SurgeonKyle:
I suppose I could, and did. Why didn't I think of that? Hahaha.

[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
did you edit with notepad and / or winrar ?

updater-script is the worst file that hates being saved in windows format.

uploading again as we speak.
[Nexus S Android Development] SurgeonKyle:
Edited in Notepad++, so I suppose that was the issue. At least now I know how temperamental it can be. I'll be sure to download your fix instead, I honestly blame windows for this one.
[Nexus S Android Development] jrdche:
My experience too. I've clean installed three times and I keep getting lag. With the default ICS I have never had any lag like I get on Pixel 1.60. Let me know if you find a resolution.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
if you have any speed reservations try lite or slight as they are without any lag guaranteed.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Can you qualify this ?
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
corrected attempt at a quick 4G port now uploaded - please try the same download link.
[Nexus S Android Development] SurgeonKyle:
Houston, we have lift off! I am honored to be the first NS4G user of your rom, and I'll be sure to update with anything I find. Thank you so much for doing this for us lowly 4G owners. Now, please tell me this small step means you'll consider supporting the NS4G for real now.

P.S. Superuser is still broken, had to install the zip again.

Love you Pixel.
[Nexus S Android Development] neosynthesis:
MMS worked then broke again! ARRG! Wind Mobile

MMS was finally working on Lite. Flashed Fully Touched Mod. Still working. Recovered back to Lite. Flashed the WHITE version of the MOD pack, now MMS won't send. Any ideas? Anything else I can try to hopefully help this community narrow down a pattern to find a cause? Please let me know. Cheers, all!

UPDATE:

Reflashed, MMS works on the Slight Touch and the original Fully Touched from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23233127&postcount=120

After retesting, I can confirm that the white MOD pack breaks MMS consistently.
[Nexus S Android Development] SurgeonKyle:
So, let's get down to the finite details on how the 4G rom works so far.

Not Working: SU out of the box (requires you to flash the SU zip to get it working), and carrier label (shows up as either roaming notification on or off)

Working: Damn near everything, mobile data, wifi, everything essential, even the PixelRom 1.6 Full mod works! (but sets the device name to Nexus S)

I'll be sure to test out whatever I can and keep you up-to-date. Oh and one final, final thing, I'd kill to have hold back to kill put into the development settings.

Thanks for the fantastic work again!
[Nexus S Android Development] neosynthesis:
Love the new camera! Power button as shutter?

wildestpixel, this ROM is as good as they come in stability and battery use. I did notice that battery seemingly a lot worse after the FULLY touched MOD pack was installed with the Android OS kicking up using 10% or more OVER the litetouch. But coming from CM9, even with a Matr1x kernel, your ROM is still way better in battery use.

Is there a way to add using the power button as the camera shutter a la CM ROMs? Or is there a way I can use another camera app to achieve this? Having an actual shutter is something I've been using so much, I'd almost go back to a CM based ROM to get that feature.

Thank you for such an awesome job with your ROM.
[Nexus S Android Development] SurgeonKyle:
Other issues found (because I already started a new post, why not add on to it?):

* 4G widget is available, but when you drag it onto the home-screen 4G settings crashes and the toggle does a whole lot of nothing.

* This one should be obvious, but I'll state it regardless: No 4G setting under 'More' Wireless & Networks

* The System UI will always crash if you hit the torch toggle more than two times rapidly.

* Carrier label option on Fully Touched somewhat works, I was able to get the notification bar to say 'Sprint' but not the lock-screen, that's still 'Roaming Indicator On/Off' which I assume will be an easy fix

Now for other working parts:

* The revert package works once installing the full mod on slightly4g or in other words light, slight, and full all 'work'

* MMS Sending (On blue mod, and now white mod too, but receiving may be out of whack as I can't download them, might just be a weak connection )

* Wifi Hotspot

* USB Tethering

* Roaming data

* GPS location

(But we pretty much expected the non-4g parts to work anyway, right? Just thought it'd be worth mentioning)
[Nexus S Android Development] greenfrogz:
I am running on lite. Just downloaded the program to try out, nope its not working, running it resulting in restart. The description on the play store also notes that 4.0.4 is not supported.
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
Are you installing Lite, Slight, or Full touch?
[Nexus S Android Development] xjerlzx:
thinking of changing rom to this!

how is this rom's battery life when compared to buglessbeast with matrix18?
[Nexus S Android Development] SurgeonKyle:
Best way to find out is to flash it yourself and compare, everyone's settings will vary.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
fully touched is not for 4G
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
So this is not an issue of the ROM; is not for here.
[Nexus S Android Development] xjerlzx:
Wao its smoother then bugless on the lite. Batt life must wait a few days to find out. Anw play store is automatically upgraded to on pixel lite 1.6
[Nexus S Android Development] JakeOcn:
I'm in love with Slight Touch version, it's super smooth with stock kernel.. Only thing I miss is aokp toggles
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Who needs toggles ;)

By the way - I'm all over a Transformer Prime ROM at the moment - making a beauty of the beast as it were ...............
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
While SetCPU gives you profiles they can actually be a pain for actual battery management. I have found that NSTools gives me better battery life by way of Deep Idle On +Max Frequency with screen off = a very fast race to idle.

---------- Post added at 08:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 AM ----------

Which Clock/skin is that?
[Nexus S Android Development] tjackbjorn:
what does "Max Frequency with screen off" means? does it save battery?:)
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
And which ROM version are you using. Lite, slight, or full?
[Nexus S Android Development] gabling23:
hi i have just installed the lite version of this rom.. i hope that the duration of the battery will be better.. should i do any wipe? like battery wipe or wipe data/factory reset before using the rom?
[Nexus S Android Development] ssenbonzakura:
Well you should have wiped data/factory reset and cache in recovery before installing. No need to wipe battery stats. There's an installation guide on page 1
[Nexus S Android Development] satthienthan1:
Hi wildestpixel

have Your rom Volume rocker wake(pressing the volume up/down wakes the device.Intended for devices with hard to press power key) ?
[Nexus S Android Development] ballroom dru:
Max frequency with screen off example.

My phone is over clocked to 1100mhz. If i start a task that is Cpu heavy and causes the processor to get all the way up to 1100mhz and turn the screen off the phone will keep going at 1100mhz until that task is done. Then it will try to go to idle again. So essential, the phone raced to idle. With setcpu, alot of people set a profile where the phone cuts the processor down to 200mhz or less as soon as they turn the screen off. So if you start the same processor intensive process and shut the screen off, the phone has to try to finish the process with a very slow processing speed.

Does this make sense? The idea is to get the phone to its least power hungry state as soon as is possible so it can stay in that state longer.

For those complaining about slow or inaccessible downloads, please see the attached torrent of all Pixel Rom 1.60 related files. MAKE SURE you use your torrent client to check the downloads you want instead of just downloading the whole torrent (unless you just want to help seed everything, in which case I express gratitude), as this torrent includes full copies of Light Touch, Slight Touch, and both Fully Touched mod packs as well as the "old UI sounds".

Please help seed if you download.
