Network Type Indicator

Events are handled in different groups, it makes sense to handle them in as few listeners as possible (where they can be logically grouped)

Android (Lollipop API21 and up) now support vector based assets and Android Studio/Gradle 1.4 will convert to PNGs on compilation for backwards compatibility.

Should replace the current SVG+scripts method to the integrated one.

Currently, pre-Honeycomb, the theme is based on the old default theme, post-Honeycomb it’s based on Holo.

However starting with ICS there’s also a DeviceDefault theme that makes the app look more integrated (i.e. it looks like Holo on older devices, and like Material on newer ones).

It doesn’t make sense to load on boot if we won’t be displaying the notification.

Nowadays it’s common practice to have apps with light themes by default

Should be very careful to stay within Google’s AUP though

This setting is shown regardless of version but it has no effect on older Androids since they don’t support notification actions.

Requested on Google Play

This should prevent task killers from reaping it as easily

Starting with Marshmallow (API level 23, Android 6.0) READ_PHONE_STATE is considered a dangerous permission (and as a result it can be revoked by the user at any time) but at the same time it is no longer required to check connection status.

Should restrict it to old API levels (NOTE the API documentation don’t mention this requirement anymore, but old devices DO require it).

The manifest file can be modified to provide a back button (usually an arrow on the top left) when an activity is launched.

Use it for the settings and donations activities.

This is a bugfix-only release.

Next: FS#329 (1.6)

Reported by Andrew 21/8/2017 over email

[...] on my HTC 10 running Marshmallow, it fails to startup on boot.

The updated version to return to the Play Store isn’t adapted to the new notification system

To ease propagating changes to all densities

Android Studio / Gradle support the use of build “flavors” with different code, plus Android apps support versioned resources, so the two branches can be merged into a single one taking advantage of that.

AboutDialog, DonationsActivity and TogglePreference can be moved into a separate module since they can be used (or are already being used) verbatim by my other apps.

First suggested by pacibum

Add an option to open mobile network settings instead of nettype when tapping on notification.
