This release seems to be working quite well with respect to the firmware upgrading itself. The user facing part needs more work.
In order to update the firmware one has to:
- open a file ending with .fw
- switch from the firmware upgrade activity to the main one
- connect to the miband
- return to the firmware upgrade activity
- press the "install" button (that became active when the device connection was established)
Caveats:
There are almost no check wrt. the integrity of the firmware files.
- the day of week are evenly spread across the screen in the alarms detail activity
- the alarms are stored in a single shared preference (as a set) NB: you'll have to reset your alarms if you used a previous version (and also manually clean the shared preferences, but this is not needed)
- the list of alarms gets correctly updated after editing a specific alarm
- the actionbar back button saves the alarm status, the device back button doesn't. I'm not sure if it's a bug or a feature :)
The code basically works, but there a lot of things to fix / improve.
* The alarms are stored to and read from the Shared Preferences, but there is no persistence within the app (basically they are read and stored at every access)
* The alarm list is not updated when coming back from the alarm detail view (probably related to the point above), but the actual alarm is
* The alarms preference names is sometimes built by concatenating strings, which is not really safe
* There is no check in the alarm constructor whether the stored string is a valid alarm representation
* Even though only 3 alarms can be stored on the device, we could have more in the app and let the user choose which to sync
* In the alarm detail view XML some material* drawables are used, it's possible that these break on android version < 5
* ...
Configurable for sms, k9, incoming calls, pebble messages, generic
notifications.
Color is unfortunately not configurable so far, see #37Closes#29
Currently provided profiles are
- staccato
- short
- medium
- long
- waterdrop
- ring
- alarm clock
on the UUID_CHARACTERISTIC_BATTERY characteristic.
This is a first try at addressing #71
Please note that this will probably not work at this point, but it's
worth a try. To make it work probably we have to tell the device to
send updates, and we don't know how to do it.
- supports zooming an panning
- displays labels for all x-values (= time of day)
- fix deep vs. light sleep constants
- increase activity data buffer size for Mi Band
A device now has a busy flag (set during synchronization). While busy,
no other communication with the device shall occur (TODO)
Refactors the non-bluetooth actions a bit #45
Next step: make use of the busy state in ControlCenter (show
a busy cursor) and in BluetoothCommunicationService (to not call other
operations while busy)
* no more ByteBuffer, but a fixed size byte array that gets flushed everytime it's needed
* log of activity data to a separate file (no DB integration yet)
* the size of the buffer must be a multiple of 3 (1 minute of data = 3 bytes) and 20 (the normal size of the chunks we get from the device)
* better logging and more comments in code
