My name is Graziano Sorbaioli and I am a free software activist.

Device:

  • Neo Freerunner A7+ bought from Golden delicious (highly recommended! Shipment to Italy in 3 working days)
  • SHR LITE Testing


I want to hack on the Freerunner in the fields of usability and User Interface.

I own an HTC Dream with Android 1.6 and CyanogenMOD ROM.

Since the stability and maturity of the Dream and Android I am going to compare it to the Freerunner to see differences and

where we can improve.


Some random ideas:


Boot Time

How long do both phones take to be up and running? (aka cold start)

HTC Dream (Android 1.6 + cyanogenmod rom 4.5) about 2 minutes

Neo Freerunner A7+ (SHR LITE Testing - 2010 25th January) 1,40 minutes



Suggestions for SHR

  • notifications: currently I see them only when I wake up the phone pressing the power button.

I don't think it's a good place. We should have them on the upper bar (as android) or in the lower buttons (as mac os mobile)

  • automatically detect wifi networks and login to a chosen default one (via mokonnect?)
  • tab menu to switch between dialer, contacts and call logs
  • "copy to sim" button inside the contact details window
  • SHR FULL should have ventura browser, calendar, email, music, vocal recorder apps preinstalled
  • SHR LITE should have at least the calendar app preinstalled
  • long press in home screen = background choice

Feedback

  • small keyboard - it should fit the side borders of the screen, larger buttons

omnewrotate and literki


  • opkg graphic application (om-showroom app?)

Wait for dos1 to fix shr-installer app.



  • SIM application Toolkit aka SAT support

<DocScrutinizer> graziano: that SIM applications. Not supported by FSO <DocScrutinizer> it's complex, and most devels agree on we don't want to have to disable it, once FSO has implemented it <DocScrutinizer> as you don't have real control over that crap
