1) We now delay MMS notifications until a payload is received,
or there's an error downloading the payload. This makes
group messages more consistent.
2) All "text" parts of an MMS are combined into a second text
record, which is stored in the MMS row directly rather than
as a distinct part. This allows for immediate text loading,
which means there's no chance a ConversationItem will resize.
To do this, we need to include MMS in the big DB migration
that's already staged for this application update. It's also
an "application-level" migration, because we need the MasterSecret
to do it.
3) On conversation display, all image-based parts now have their
thumbnails loaded asynchronously. This allows for smooth-scrolling.
The thumbnails are also scaled more accurately.
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.
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) Consolidate all of the KeyCachingService interaction into a single
mixin. Activities extend delegates which call through to the mixin.
2) Switch Activity increment/decrement triggers from onStop to onPause
in order to account for some screen locks that don't stop activities.
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) Don't add a notification item to the notification bar if the thread the
message is for is active and visible.
2) Only sound the notification ringtone at 1/4th volume if the thread the
message is for is active and visible.
3) Auto-clear the notification in the notification bar when a thread becomes
visible from a screen-off situation.
4) Make notification updates asynchronous.
1) Refactor recipient class to support asynchronous loading operations.
2) Refactor recipient factory to simplify recipient access.
3) Consoliate everything into one recipient provider that is capable of
doing async lookups and intelligent caching.
On platforms (API >= 11) that support receiving click events within
a notification, we change the notification format so that users
can "lock" TextSecure with a click.
For all platforms, we change the notification icon in the status
bar from a "lock" to an "unlock," to better reflect the situation.
This is all part of the master plan for eliminating the passphrase
timeout option.
1) Change all instances which use concatenation to build strings
with variables in them to use string formatting instead.
2) Extract all string literals from layouts and menus into strings.xml
3) Extract all string literals from code into strings.xml
1) Start breaking the UI out into Fragments.
2) Switch to Cursor loaders from managed cursors.
3) Switch to inflated menu resources.
4) Break out some basic functionality into helper classes.
The 1.X Android versions don't have the 2.X VERSION_CODE
symbols, so comparing against them in order to make 1.6
choices will throw runtime exceptions.
