Re: [b2g] Visibility plan for document.registerElement (custom elements)

There are discussions going on at the platform/spec level that could change how custom elements are registered and more so change how they are upgraded/created under the hood: - Firstly there is a push to make custom elements more 'classy' utilising ES6 classes for definition with possibly r

Re: [b2g] Granting Permissions to the Web

Regarding access to telephony. We hoped that fxos would get to the point where it is so hackable that users could potentially replace the dialer app with something third-party. It's a bold move, but it's proof we've succeeded in making 'the phone for makers'. *W I L S O N P A G E* Front-end Deve

[b2g] OTA Updates for Nexus-4?

Wondering if anyone knew how to get my Nexus-4 to update 'over-the-air' without having to do it all manually using cables and b2g-flash-tool. I'm asking because some people have said it's only possible with Flame; I just wanted to clarify. Thanks :) *W I L S O N P A G E* Front-end Developer Fir

[b2g] [v2.2/master] Nexus-4 Instability

I recently updated my Nexus-4 to master using the b2g-flash-tool. I flashed 'images' and then 'gecko + gaia'. The build was unusable. - Whenever I attempted to make or receive a call the device would reboot. - Battery drained extremely fast. Device appeared to be stuck in some kind of req

Re: [b2g] Camera app image filtering

Andrew may know about this. FWIW we made a concious effort to reduce the settings menu options to an absolute minimum to keep the code-base and UX as simple as possible. *W I L S O N P A G E* Front-end Developer Firefox OS (Gaia) London Office Twitter: @wilsonpage IRC: wilsonpage On Mon, Apr 2

Re: [b2g] Getting rid of "apps" in FirefoxOS

Agree with Ben here. I don't think apps should be 'browser chrome' unless they *absolutely* have to. The apps we choose to ship with should be an example of what is possible Firefox OS and ultimately be replaced by better third-party apps. *W I L S O N P A G E* Front-end Developer Firefox OS (Ga

[b2g] Profiling Gaia Apps

AFAIK there are two ways to profile an app: *'profile.sh'* - Build a custom B2G with the `MOZ_PROFILING=1` flag and use `profile.sh` script in the B2G repo. A very labour intensive process, taking hours to prepare for. The results are hard to interpret, that only a few Gecko engineers seem to to

Re: [b2g] Can we build Firefox OS on 32-bit Ubuntu

You should try building using a virtual machine. Last week I created b2g-vm which uses Vagrant to define a machine that matches the B2G build requirements. I've been using it on Mac, but it should work on Windows too. If you have a

Re: [b2g] Best way to profile web app startup performance

You can also use [CMD] + [R] inside WebIDE after running the profiler in devtools. This will refresh the current page without doing a full reboot. Not quite as thorough as profile.sh, but quicker and easier to derive meaning from :) *W I L S O N P A G E* Front-end Developer Firefox OS (Gaia) Lo

Re: [b2g] Freshly installed nightly on my flame, how can I get apps out of smart collections?

I think this is a bug. I've flashed some builds that had some apps missing from Homescreen but available in Smart Collections. We have a brand new homescreen on the way, I think you may be able to turn it on in 'Settings' -> 'Developer' menu. Let us know how you get on :) *W I L S O N P A G E*
