The theme from the manifest is used for the startup animation.
Previously light background with a dark actionbar and the
green icon was displayed during the startup animation, then
the theme switched to whatever is configured in settings.
Now a black background without actionbar is used for the
startup animation. This was chosen because a black "flash" when
using the light theme is visually less distracting than a white
flash when using the dark theme.
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.
Look like an Android app from 2013.
Remove the redundant Gingerbread button styles from buttons to
automatically use the Holo theme on phones that don't run a 3+ year old
operating system.
Create a new style for horizontal progress bars that uses the Holo
progress bar style on v11 and above.
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) ABS is now published as an AAR, so we can eliminate all local
dependencies and bundled jars.
2) Upgrade to ABS 4.4.0 (The Last Release) and deal with the loss
of Sherlock.Dialog by faking it with our own themes.
3) Remove all traces of ant. The modern world is here.
