On Jelly Bean and above:
- Use the standard notification style for a better and consistent visual
appearance
- Use the JB notification actions API for the locking action
- Use a lower notification priority to prioritize other notifications
over TextSecure
On ICS:
- Use the existing custom notification layout
Everywhere:
- Allow opening the app itself from the notification
- Simplify strings: don't talk about a "cached passphrase" but about the
app being "unlocked"/"locked"
1) The system does actually enforce having a BROADCAST_SMS
permission on the SMS receiver. Break out the "delivered"
parts of this into a separate Receiver, so the permission
won't trip up GB devices.
2) The system does actually enforce having "quick response"
intents. Add a no-op for now.
3) Add a "make default" prompt.
4) Update settings to reflect what's going on in KitKat.
1) Added a new message status to MmsDatabase to
signify a pending MMS download which requires
APN settings.
2) Added a database method to query MMS messages
based on status.
3) Added login to SendReceiveService for processing
of MMS pending APN information.
4) Moved all APN/MMS settings into ApnPreferencesActivity
and transformed PromptApnActivity into a simple
informational activity.
5) Added logic to check for APN settings on send and
receive of all MMS (media, group, email) and direct
user to PromptApnActivity then ApnPreferencesActivity
if necessary.
6) Vocab/grammar adjustments.
I felt that the description of what "in-thread notification" could be difficult to understand for some. This is better, I think (though I'm not fully satisfied).
1) Allow imports from the stock SMS database at any time.
2) Provide plaintext export support, in a format compatible with
the "SMS Backup And Restore" app.
3) Fix the DB weirdness on encrypted restore that previously
required killing the app.
1) Broke out the UI elements of the major Activites into stylable
attributes.
2) Created a 'light' and 'dark' theme for the newly stylable attrs.
3) Touched up some of the UI spacing.
4) Implemented dynamic theme switching support.
1) There is no longer a concept of "verified" or "unverified."
Only "what we saw last time" and "different from last time."
2) Let's eliminate "verify session," since we're all about
identity keys now.
3) Mark manually processed key exchanges as processed.
1) We now try to hand out cursors at a minimum. There has always been
a fairly clean insertion layer that handles encrypting message bodies,
but the process of decrypting message bodies has always been less than
ideal. Here we introduce a "Reader" interface that will decrypt message
bodies when appropriate and return objects that encapsulate record state.
No more MessageDisplayHelper. The MmsSmsDatabase interface is also more
sane.
2) We finally rid ourselves of the technical debt associated with TextSecure's
initial usage of the default SMS DB. In that world, we weren't able to use
anything other than the default "Inbox, Outbox, Sent" types to describe a
message, and had to overload the message content itself with a set of
local "prefixes" to describe what it was (encrypted, asymetric encrypted,
remote encrypted, a key exchange, procssed key exchange), and so on.
This includes a major schema update that transforms the "type" field into
a bitmask that describes everything that used to be encoded in a prefix,
and prefixes have been completely eliminated from the system.
No more Prefix.java
3) Refactoring of the MultipartMessageHandler code. It's less of a mess, and
hopefully more clear as to what's going on.
The next step is to remove what we can from SmsTransportDetails and genericize
that interface for a GCM equivalent.
