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.
Provides an in-app source for APN info for use in the case that the
device store is unavailable and the user hasn't provided local
connection parameters.
Only covers T-Moble USA, AT&T, and Verizon right now. Only T-Mobile is
tested. Other carriers can be added and tested on an ongoing basis.

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.
