The vast majority of users will never uncheck this option. Those who
would can send an unencrypted untagged message through the system sms
app. It would then be stored locally in the clear, but it was already
transmitted in the clear and likely stored on the recipient's side in
the clear, so the security gains of locally encrypting are low, and
again, this seems an extremely rare edge case.
By android design pattern specs for the settings menu, we should kill
this preference.
Android design pattern best practice recommends placing the settings
menu item below all other items because it's not frequently needed.
In that spirit, I've also moved the clear passphrase option to be first
since it is likely to be used more often than database import/export.

This fix involves setting transcriptMode to normal on conversation view,
which resolves the issue but comes with the side effect that if you
have scrolled away from the bottom of the list, new incoming messages
will not trigger auto-scroll as they arrive.
Currently we're flipping the radio in "MMS" mode, and connecting through
any proxies specified in the APN. This always work, or at least doesn't
seem to work on Sprint, since the configured mms proxy rejects proxy
requests.
Instead we try the following in this order:
1) Connect over normal data connection directly to MMSC.
2) Connect over MMS radio connection to MMSC.
3) Connect over MMS radio connection with any configured proxy to MMSC.
Hopefully this doesn't fuck up shit on other unknown networks.
1) Update the create, prompt, and change passphrase activities.
They are no longer dialog themed, and should look a little
less ugly.
2) Update the import DB activity to be less ugly and more robust.
3) Abstract all of the state handling stuff out of
ConversationListActivity. This is now handled by RoutingActivity,
which all launch intents move through.
1) If a message fails to be delivered, post a notification in the
status bar if that thread is not active and visible.
2) If a message fails to be delivered because there is no service,
keep retrying every time service becomes available again.
1) Refactor the master secret reset logic to properly interact with
services.
2) Add support for "BigText" and "Inbox" style notifications.
3) Decrypt message bodies when unlocked, display 'encrypted' when
locked.
1) We record time sent in SMS database (date_sent).
2) We record time received in MMS database (date_received).
3) We union this information correctly in MmsSmsDatabase.
1) Add configuration options for APN information in TextSecure settings.
2) Fall back to TextSecure settings if system settings are unavailable
while sending/receiving MMS.
3) Catch sqlite exception when devices randomly don't have the same
APN db or table structure.
1) When sending an SMS or MMS to multiple recipients, only show one
ConversationItem, but provide statistics on the number of recipients
delivered to.
2) Still break up the messages for secure and insecure messages.
1) Add >= ICS profile support (the system-supported "me" contact).
2) Improve <= Gingerbread support for me contact by auto-detecting
contacts that have the same number as the SIM card.
3) Tie in identity key import/export support to the "me" contact.
4) Don't display a "me" selection option in preference if it can
be auto-detected.
5) Refactor out the ContactAccessorNewApi back into the base class.
You know, it's much more fun listening to you in a lecture theatre. :-P
Right; any nit picks now might have to wait 3 weeks, depending on
available connectivity. Hope I did not screw this one up.
