When roaming no network type is indicated.

Device: Nexus 5

NOTE: Not a bug report, misunderstanding on my part

Received reports on newer devices, sync changes from older droids’ branch

Affects new droids and old droids branches.

Has never been reported in the developer console.

Lollipop’s new handling of ongoing notifications makes Nettype’s notification to stay on the lockscreen.

Brought up by Andrey Simakov and Theos Greg on Google Play.

This is a meta-item depending on bugs/features required to complete before releasing nettype 1.3

Next:  FS#215 

Suggested by Adjel and Vel

Add a possibility to change icons, possibly customise them with themes

Requested by Alex.
Bug report also submitted by Martin.

Please add support for DCHSPAP network, it displays as unknown.
Some phones display it as DC.

Re-do icons with bigger symbols

Suggested by Adjel and Vel

Indicate connection status on notification icon

Necessary to indicate mobile data on/off in icon

ldpi and hdpi icons have a non-integer relationship to the other sizes, hence resizing involves antialiasing.

Design icons for these sizes when re-designing icons.

Display signal strength in dbm/asu in the notification

Branch off 1.3 to add small changes before 1.4

Branch off 1.3, turned into 1.4 since it adds new features

No need for description

Should switch to a multi-apk release, where older versions of Android (pre-ICS) will only get bugfixes.

Reported by David

The icon and main app can get out of sync on version 1.4

Probably related to FS#255.
1.4 used separate network listeners for notification and main app, with the main app always listening for signal strength changes (and notification doing so optionally).

No need for description

Initially fixes (believed to be) only required for older devices.
Now also seen on newer devices
