Hi all,

I've built and flashed B2G to my Galaxy Nexus and found these major problems that affects normal operations:

1. No virtual keys. This means I can't go back, and it makes the whole interface unusable.

2. Interface font size too small, hard to recognize.

3. At the bottom of the main screen there are 4 small icons, which is of no use.

If anyone wants to test B2G on his/her Galaxy Nexus REMEMBER TO BACKUP YOUR /sdcard PARTITION! flash.sh WILL WIPE EVERYTHING!

Please note that the Galaxy Nexus is not a device we're targeting at
the moment. It's unsurprising that you're seeing problems, and fixing
them is unlikely to be a priority for us.

Cheers,

Hi everyone,
yesterday I flashed the B2G build on my Nexus and it runs pretty smooth.

What about creating a fixed "dock" with 3 buttons and remap the "missing-dock"-buttons like xda-user "nranson" mentioned in his post on xda?

What do you think about that?

Actually I would like to see that happens, but unfortunately none of us
have the time to play with that. The main issue here is to be able to
detect the lack of HW buttons from the device via a media query if
possible (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=771551) and then
it would be possible to had some code in Gaia to display those buttons.
