Occasionally a job may be run when the app is in a network-restricted
mode, like a form of doze. When this happens, jobs can timeout due to
lack of network access, causing a cascade of job delays. This is
particularly bad in the case of message retrieval.
To prevent this, if a job that normally requires network detects that no
network is available when running, then we start a foreground
notification.
A new, fullscreen camera capture flow that easily allows you to capture
and edit a photo before sending it. Replaces the current half-screen
camera button.
This also fixes the situation where we block group-leave messages,
preventing blocked contacts from leaving groups.
Fixes#7970
Also, this forced us to upgrade libsignal-service, which fixes the
websocket timeout issues. Thanks to @dpapavas!
Fixes#6644
We were getting an IllegalArgumentException during channel creation on
some Samsung phones. Stack trace didn't give me much more than that, so
just adding in some additional safeguards that make sense based on
reading AOSP.
Previously, we'd only show the attachment button when the user had
yet to enter any text. To add an attachment after text was entered,
you'd have to go to the three-dot menu. Now we just show a little
attach button in the text area.
I also took the opportunity to clean up other button paddings and
stuff in the compose area so things look better and react to text
sizes more predictably.
In particular, there were many issues with drawing corners.
Unfortunately, there's no pretty way to get masking working on every
Android version, so we have to switch back to using custom backgrounds
and then using multiple masking methods depending on Android version.
Also, I had to remove attr references in drawables. They crash on 4.x.
Translation completion >= 90%, with the exception of Irish (80%), but they've been waiting for a rather long time.
Added:
- Irish
- Kurdish
- Telugu
- Ukrainian
Previously, if an operation failed, we set the result to "null".
However, this was a mistake. Setting the result at all assumes success.
Instead, we need to set an exception so the ListenableFuture knows that
the operation failed.
A variety of improvements to the image editor, such as:
- New, fullscreen styling
- Smoother lines
- Better text and sticker handling
- Improved color picker with a history pallette
- New highlighter tool
The "contact" option in the attachments tray now brings you through an
optimized contact sharing flow, allowing you to select specific fields
to share. The contact is then presented as a special message type,
allowing you to interact with the card to add the contact to your system
contacts, invite them to signal, initiate a signal message, etc.
