User-test fixes (3rd overwrite, version stays 4.5.2/452):
1. Log page was invisible everywhere outside the radar tab:
- allNavItems in MainScreen.kt was missing Screen.WavelogLog ->
not in bottom nav, not in More menu
- SettingsScreen UI-order lists were missing the WavelogLog row ->
not in page order settings either
Now the Log page appears in the More menu (default sub menu tail,
migration appends it) AND in UI settings page-order lists.
2. Frequency display: formatFrequency was MHz.kHz.Hz (145.900.000);
now MHz.kHz (145.900) per request. Applies to transceiver panel
and Log page alike (shared formatter).
3. Log tab frequency: now extracts the exact numbers shown in the
transceiver panel (txBaseFrequencyHz for TX, uplinkLow/uplinkHigh
range for linear) - no re-computation, no extra decimals. Upload
uses the same tuned frequency (Hz precision kept internally).
4. Log page (More menu) table: date+time column (MM-dd HH:mm),
row separators (table lines), uploaded checkmark kept.
Verified: check_strings OK (8 files); :app:compileDebugKotlin
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (includes upstream merge 1a552417).
Background: user's WaveLog server has NO v2 API (all /api/v2/* return
404; /api/qso v1 works - verified with curl). First fix only tried v2
paths, so uploads still failed with 404. Also: Log tab frequencies did
not match the Doppler panel, linear transponders showed a single
frequency instead of the passband range, and errors were toast-only
(no copy).
Changes:
- WaveLogApi: full v1 support with auto fallback
- v2 first (Bearer header + JSON fields), on 404 fall back to v1
(key inside JSON body + ADIF string) - both with and without
index.php prefix
- test connection: v2 GET api/v2/token -> v1 POST
api/get_contacts_adif (validates key + station id)
- station gridsquare is v2-only; on v1 the uploader falls back to
the user's QTH grid (grid check skipped/equal)
- v1 ADIF: call/band=SAT/mode/freq+freq_rx (MHz)/qso_date/time_on
(UTC, compact)/gridsquare(4)/sat_name/prop_mode=SAT, byte-length
field prefixes
- 409 duplicate counts as success in both versions
- Error dialog with copy: test/upload failures now open an AlertDialog
with the full error (incl. actual URL + HTTP code), Copy button
(ClipboardManager) and Cancel; uploader collects the first failure
message
- Log tab frequency sync: LogTab receives txBaseFrequencyHz from the
radar page (the tuned frequency shown in the transceiver panel);
RX is computed through the same Doppler mapping as the Doppler
panel; linear transponders show the full uplink/downlink range
(Doppler-corrected low-high) instead of a single frequency
- Restored uploadWavelogQueue (lost in an earlier patch)
Verified: check_strings.py OK (8 files, 452/4.5.2);
:app:compileDebugKotlin BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
Background: user tested 4.5.2 and reported 4 issues. Same-version
overwrite per user (4.5.2 exists solely for the logbook system).
Fixes:
1. Upload 404 — root cause: user server URL ending in /index.php was
concatenated again (/index.php/index.php/api/v2/...) -> 404. Now:
- normalizeUrl strips trailing /index.php
- every request tries the index.php path first, falls back to the
rewritten path on 404
- 409 conflict (duplicate QSO) counts as success (moves out of queue)
- failure messages include the actual URL + HTTP code for debugging
2. Swipe-to-delete was dead: rowWidth was never measured (0) so the
75% threshold was 0 and the drag was clamped to 0. Now measured via
onSizeChanged + smooth spring/tween snap-back animation.
3. Transponder picker: long card list replaced with an
ExposedDropdownMenuBox dropdown (scrollable menu, pick one).
4. New Log page under the More menu: table view (time / frequency /
satellite / callsign / uploaded checkmark). WavelogQso gains
uploaded flag; uploader marks instead of removing; queue keeps
uploaded entries (500 cap). Old persisted subMenuOrder gets
WavelogLog appended (migration).
Verified: check_strings.py OK (8 files, 452/4.5.2);
:app:compileDebugKotlin BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
Background: satellite operators want to log QSOs during a pass while
watching live frequencies. 4.5.2 adds WaveLog (logbook server) API v2
integration: log from the radar page, upload to a self-hosted WaveLog
instance with grid-mismatch protection.
Changes:
- Radar page: new third tab "Log" between Transceivers and SSTV
- pick a transponder, watch live TX/RX Doppler-corrected frequencies
- enter callsign, Enter stores locally (UTC time + that second's
frequencies sampled together)
- local entry list shows time/frequency/callsign only (no upload
status, per user: proves the entry was saved)
- swipe-to-delete: yellow trash while swiping, turns into Undo at
75%, 5s countdown before auto-delete (custom gesture, no
SwipeToDismissBox)
- Settings: new WaveLog card (server URL / API key / station ID /
auto-upload switch / test connection / upload now buttons) matching
the user's reference screenshot layout
- Upload pipeline: POST /index.php/api/v2/qso with required fields
(station_profile_id, call, band=SAT, mode, qso_date, time_on UTC)
plus freq/freq_rx (Hz), gridsquare (from station profile via
GET /api/v2/station/{id}), sat_name; RST omitted per user
- Grid check: station gridsquare (first 4) vs user QTH (first 4);
mismatch shows a confirm dialog (ignore & upload / cancel)
- Auto upload: 10-minute in-app retry loop (only when switch on);
manual upload button; local queue capped at 500, all entries stored
locally regardless of switch
- Fixed: subMenuOrder was never persisted (4.5.1 regression)
- core/domain: compileOnly org.json (runtime uses Android's)
- Version 4.5.2 (452)
Verified: check_strings.py OK (8 files, 452/4.5.2);
:app:compileDebugKotlin BUILD SUCCESSFUL locally.
Background: 8 bottom-nav items squeeze long English labels on narrow
screens. 4.5.1 introduces the 5+N pattern: 5 main tabs plus a fixed
6th "More" button that pops a second-level menu (spring bounce) with
the remaining pages.
Changes:
- MainScreen: nav split into main (<=5, screenOrder-driven) + more
(subMenuOrder); More button with popup panel + spring animation;
BackHandler closes the menu before navigating back
- MoreMenuPopup: bottom-end card, current page highlighted, scrim
click to dismiss
- UI Settings: page order card now has two zones (main menu, max 5,
Settings locked last with no drag handle / more menu); move buttons
between zones, drag-to-reorder within zones; new subMenuOrder pref
- Defaults: main = Satellites/Passes/Radar/Map/Settings,
more = Mutual/Roaming/CwDecode; old screenOrder migrates by
classifying pages against the default sub menu
- Hard-coded UI strings localized (Tracking/Lat/Lon/Qth/Connect/
Track/Stop/CW permission prompts) into EN/ZH/TR
- NEW Indonesian locale (values-in, 181 strings + cw module strings)
- user rule: every future release must update EN/ZH/TR/IN
- Version 4.5.1 (451)
Verified: check_strings.py OK (8 files, no bare apostrophes);
:app:compileDebugKotlin BUILD SUCCESSFUL locally.
Background: the transponder panel CW decoder (added by the upstream
fork author) used a lightweight Kotlin Bayesian engine (core/domain/cw,
kept untouched as a fallback). This change makes the panel use the
Morse Expert engine ported in 4.5.0, so both CW entry points share the
same decoder with a live waterfall.
Changes:
- New mini layout cw_panel_main.xml (waterfall 80dp + decoded text,
status line hidden but ID kept for controller lookup)
- MainActivity.onCreate overload with applyImmersive flag; panel binds
with false so the host window system bars are not touched
- CwDecoderPanel now embeds the mini layout via AndroidView and drives
the MainActivity controller: start/stop/reset map to the engine,
lifecycle follows panel expand (start) / collapse (release mic)
- radar module now depends on feature:cw (+ constraintlayout 2.2.1,
same as cw) for layout + controller reuse
- What's new rewritten in EN/TR/ZH for this release only
Verified: :feature:radar:compileDebugKotlin and :app:compileDebugKotlin
BUILD SUCCESSFUL locally; check_strings.py OK (7 files, no bare
apostrophes).
The waterfall showed mirrored/upside-down garbage because the FFT
never produced a valid spectrum:
1. g3.c.f() (high-precision sin) had its quadrant-0 case mangled by
jadx into a nested-if that returned NaN for small angles - the
twiddle factor table ended up with 329/1024 NaN entries.
Restored the smali switch: case0->g(), case1->c(), case2->-g(),
case3->-c().
2. i3.d.k() routed the runtime FFT (a5==0, single-thread path) into
the else of if(a5!=1) instead of if(a5!=0), so the FFT never ran
and the output stayed in the time domain (peak at bin 357 for a
669Hz tone instead of bin 86).
Verified with a JVM harness (static-block tables + pure-tone inputs):
200Hz->bin26, 400Hz->bin51, 669Hz->bin86, 1000Hz->bin128, all exact.
Twiddle table NaN count: 329 -> 0.
Decode page showed stats but empty waterfall and no decoded text:
the ported i3/d.k() FFT dispatch was broken by a jadx structure
misplacement - the runtime path (k=1 -> a5=0 -> cond_22 single-thread
FFT) was replaced by a hallucinated `throw null` else-branch while the
real cond_22 code sat in a dead else. Verified against smali
(7030-7263): j3.c.q forward FFT + post-processing loop + tail + small-
array branch now live in the a5==0 branch.
Also:
- UiSettingsCard now lists CwDecode (toggle + drag-reorder) between
Roaming and Map
- unknown screenIds in persisted screenOrder fall back to
defaultScreenOrder position (CwDecode lands between Roaming and Map
for existing users instead of trailing after Settings)
Verified: :feature:cw + :feature:settings + :app compileDebugKotlin
BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
Three release-breaking issues found in the v4.5.0 APK (app crashed on
launch, label showed "Morse Expert", dex shrank to 282KB vs 3.5MB):
1. app_name: the ported app_values.xml shipped a "Morse Expert"
app_name string which overrode Look4Sat Pro's label during resource
merging - removed (no other string collisions).
2. R8 stripped nearly all code: the in-app sun.misc.Unsafe/Cleaner
stubs clashed with android.jar library classes. Moved stubs to
com.rtbishop.look4sat.feature.cw.suncompat and updated k3.d/s/r
imports (k3.r keeps the reflective Class.forName("sun.misc.Unsafe")
string, which returns null on Android hidden-API limits).
3. proguard-rules.pro added (AGP 9 variant-level
CanProduceConsumerProguardFiles): keep pas.** (JNI RegisterNatives
resolves by class name) plus all ported CW classes.
4. app-level ndk abiFilters forced to armeabi-v7a: the ported
libnativedecoderjni.so is v7a-only, so a multi-ABI APK would crash
with UnsatisfiedLinkError on arm64 devices.
Verified: :feature:cw:compileDebugKotlin BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
- versionCode 449 -> 450, versionName 4.4.9 -> 4.5.0
- pass_whatsnew_message rewritten (en/zh/tr) to describe ONLY this
release: new CW Decoder page (live Morse decoding + waterfall) and
its settings (message type, font size, 9 color themes)
Verified: check_strings.py OK (no bare apostrophes).
Compose integration of the ported CW decoder engine:
- CwDecodeScreen: AndroidView embedding the ported activity_main.xml,
lifecycle delegated to the ported MainActivity controller (onCreate ->
onResume, onDispose -> onPause/onDestroy), RECORD_AUDIO runtime
permission flow (with permanent-denial -> app settings), original
options_menu actions as a top button row (pause/clear/save/record/
settings), double-back-to-exit preserved
- CwSettingsDialog: message_type (general_text/ham_radio_qso),
text_font_size (7-99), and the 9 color keys (bg_color/text_color/...)
reading/writing the same prefs keys as the original app
(getPackageName()+"_preferences"), colors sourced from I2.b tables
- Navigation: Screen.CwDecode ("CwDecode") placed between Roaming and
Map in the default order; defaultScreenOrder updated; ic_cw morse icon;
nav_cw strings (en/zh/tr); app depends on :feature:cw
Verified: :feature:cw:compileDebugKotlin + :app:compileDebugKotlin
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (first pass, no errors).
Two drag issues from user testing:
1. Only adjacent swaps worked - the drag gesture could not move an
item past multiple positions. Root cause: the pointerInput closure
kept the index captured at composition; after the live swap
(items.add(target, removeAt(index))) the closure's index was
stale, so subsequent targets were computed from the wrong origin
and the saved order got corrupted (also made previously moved
items snap back).
Fix: track the dragged item's live position via draggingIndex -
onDragStart resolves it with items.indexOf(screen), onDrag computes
the target from draggingIndex and updates it after each swap.
2. The six-dot grip icon was ugly; replaced with a single 8dp themed
dot (Box + CircleShape inside the 48dp touch area, onSurfaceVariant
color). ic_drag.xml removed.
What's-new rewritten in en/zh/tr with ONLY this release's changes
(user rule: replace, never append history). Version stays 4.4.9
(覆盖 per user). Verified: settings + app compile, check_strings.py
clean.
v4.4.9 page-order list crashed the Settings screen on scroll: the
drag-reorder LazyColumn sits inside the Settings LazyVerticalGrid
item, and a vertically scrollable child measured with infinite max
height throws IllegalStateException, killing the app before the UI
Settings card even renders.
Fix: give the LazyColumn a bounded height (itemHeight * items.size
= 7 rows × 48dp = 336dp). Drag logic, animation and persistence
unchanged.
What's-new rewritten in en/zh/tr with ONLY this fix (user rule:
replace, never append history). Version stays 4.4.9 (覆盖 per user).
Verified: settings + app compile; check_strings.py clean.
Users can now change the bottom navigation order (previously fixed):
- New "Page order" section under the Settings toggle in the UI
Settings card: vertical list of all 7 pages, each with a drag
handle (new ic_drag drawable, Material drag_indicator glyph) on
the right.
- Drag a handle up/down: the item follows the finger with live
swap + animateItem() placement animation; on release the order is
persisted (OtherSettings.screenOrder, comma-separated in prefs so
order survives; StringSet would not).
- "Reset order" button restores the default order
(Satellites/Passes/Radar/Mutual/Roaming/Map/Settings).
- MainScreen now sorts navItems by screenOrder (empty = default,
stable sort keeps the canonical order); hiddenScreens filtering
unchanged; Settings entry always visible.
- New strings prefs_ui_order_title / prefs_ui_order_reset in
en/zh/tr; What's-new updated in all three locales.
Version stays 4.4.9 (覆盖 per user). Verified: core:data tests
pass, settings + app compile.
The previous commit message claimed the bump but the edit never
landed (script aborted on a syntax error before touching the toml);
versionName stayed 4.4.8/448. Fix the version now - the v4.4.9 tag
must carry versionName 4.4.9.
Two changes per user request:
1. Data source toggles default OFF with legacy-URL migration
(continuation of the 4.4.8 fix, now also in the dialog): old
example.com placeholder URLs are replaced by the real defaults and
the custom toggles stay off, so the online update never points at a
dead source after upgrading.
2. New "UI Settings" card between Other Settings and Credits:
one switch per bottom-navigation page (卫星/过境/雷达/匹配/漫游/地图/设置
in fixed order). Turning a page off removes it from the nav bar and
the remaining items close up automatically; order is never
rearranged. The Settings entry is always visible (switch disabled)
so the user can never lose access to settings. Persisted via
OtherSettings.hiddenScreens (StringSet of Screen.screenId; screenId
added to the Screen sealed class - simpleName is unsafe under R8).
Version bump per fork convention: 4.4.8 -> 4.4.9, versionCode 449.
What's-new updated in en/zh/tr.
Verified: core:data + core:domain tests pass, all modules compile.
Old installs that once enabled the custom TLE/transceiver toggles kept
the legacy "https://example.com/tle.txt" placeholder in preferences.
Under the new "toggle replaces the online-update default source"
semantics this pointed the All/SatNOGS fetch at a dead URL and broke
satellite updates after upgrading to 4.4.8.
Migration in getDataSourcesSettings(): example.com placeholders are
replaced by the real default URLs (Celestrak All / SatNOGS) and the
toggles are forced OFF unless a non-default, real user URL is set.
Also disable the reset (loop) icon buttons while their toggle is off.
Verified: core:data tests pass, settings + app compile. Version stays
4.4.8 (覆盖 per user).
The "Custom URL" dialog's two URL fields now control the default
source used by the online update, per the user's intent (one-time
setup, no extra steps per update):
- Defaults are real URLs now: TLE = Celestrak "All" (active group
CSV), transceivers = SatNOGS API. The example.com placeholders are
gone.
- updateFromRemote(): the "All" TLE entry and the "SatNOGS" entry are
replaced by the user's URLs when the corresponding custom toggle is
ON and the URL is non-blank; otherwise the real defaults are used.
The old "Other" appended-source logic is removed - the toggle now
means "use my URL for this source" instead of "download an extra
source". Each source (TLE / transceivers) is independent.
- Each URL field gained a reset (loop) icon button on the right that
restores the default URL text (new ic_reset drawable, Autorenew
vector). Strings added in en/zh/tr.
Test updated: custom TLE URL data now lands under the "All" type
instead of "Other". Verified: core:data tests pass, settings + app
compile. Version stays 4.4.8 (覆盖 per user).
The online update always pulls every preset Celestrak/amsat URL and
the custom URL lived hidden behind the "Import" dialog's toggle. The
user wants a discoverable entry point to edit the custom source URLs.
Rename the data card button "Import" -> "Custom URL" (en: Custom URL,
zh: 自定义URL, tr: Özel URL). The existing dialog already hosts both
URL text fields (TLE + transceivers) and the file-import buttons, so
no dialog changes are needed - the import feature stays inside, as
the user requested.
Version bump per fork convention (feature change): 4.4.7 -> 4.4.8,
versionCode 447 -> 448. v4.4.7 release stays downloadable.
What's-new dialog updated in all three locales with this change.
Verified: settings + app compile, unit tests unaffected.
A bare apostrophe in "QTH定位器 2.0'dan" broke aapt resource
compilation (Invalid unicode escape sequence) and failed the release
build. Escape it as \' per Android string resource rules.
Three detail fixes plus branding, per user review:
1. Night mode visibility (roaming page): hardcoded reference blues
(#01DDFF/#0BACF1) collapse to black under the red ColorMatrix
filter (R channel only), making the page unreadable. Replace ALL
colors with MaterialTheme.colorScheme (background/surface/
surfaceVariant/onSurface/onSurfaceVariant/primary/error). GPS
status dots become themed circles (primary/error) so they survive
the red filter; red marker keeps the original pnt drawable.
2. Settings cards unclamped:
- OtherCard: fixed height(268.dp) squeezed the last toggle row
(spacing 42/42/42/15px on device); drop the fixed height.
- CardCredits: same 268dp + SpaceBetween overflowed, gluing the
last thanks entry to the warranty line; drop fixed height, use
spacedBy(8.dp) and insert 24dp before the warranty text.
3. Branding:
- Settings top title: "Look4Sat v%s" -> "Look4Sat Pro v%s" (en/tr);
title Text no longer marquees and wraps instead (heightIn(min=48)).
- APK asset name: look4sat-<ver>.apk -> Look4Sat-Pro-<ver>.apk.
- What's-new dialog (pass_whatsnew_message) rewritten in all three
locales (en/zh/tr) with this release's changes; zh gets its own
localized title "Look4Sat Pro 更新内容".
Verified: roaming/settings/passes/app compile, 11 unit tests pass.
The user spotted two white "beams" (20dp gaps) between the center
cell and the side cells. Root cause: the reference app's RelativeLayout
ignores the fixed 60dp width when a child has BOTH a left rule
(alignParentLeft) and a right rule (toLeftOf=center cell) - the width
is stretched to right-rule minus left-rule, i.e. 80dp on a 360dp
screen. The three cells therefore sit flush with only 2dp margins
between them, no gaps.
Port that behavior: side cells 60dp -> 80dp (6 places), center cell
stays 200dp centered. Verified against the reference screenshot pixel
measurements (side cells ~76.5dp incl. margins, center ~198dp).
Verified: feature + app compile, 11 unit tests pass. Marker lookup,
grid math and GPS logic untouched.
Two remaining proportion issues on the user's device:
1. Right-side gap: the three grid rows used a continuous Row
(60+200+60dp), leaving ~84px of blank space on the right of the
screen. The reference app uses a RelativeLayout where the right
column is pinned to the screen edge and the 20dp gaps sit on both
sides of the centered middle column. Convert each row to a Box:
left cell align(CenterStart), middle cell align(Center), right
cell align(CenterEnd) - pixel-identical to the reference.
2. Footer legibility: the credit line ("制作：US1PM 汉化：BA7LCE")
had a fixed 15dp height with no bottom margin, so it sat directly
against the navigation bar and part of the text was hard to read.
Drop the fixed height and add 10dp bottom padding so the text
renders fully with breathing room above the nav bar.
Verified: feature + app compile, 11 unit tests pass. Marker lookup,
grid math and GPS logic untouched.
The ported page rendered edge-to-edge: the GPS bar started right at
the top of the screen and the footer sat against the navigation bar,
so system UI overlapped the content (user: "顶头"). The reference app
is not edge-to-edge and keeps its content inside the safe area.
Add windowInsetsPadding(WindowInsets.systemBars) on the page root
column, shrinking the top and bottom by the status/navigation bar
height exactly as the user requested ("上方和下方往里面缩一点点").
Grid columns (60/200/60dp), rows, marker lookup and all logic are
untouched - verified pixel-identical column ratios vs the reference
screenshot (147:395:147 vs 146:395:148).
Verified: feature + app compile, 11 unit tests pass.
The roaming page was repeatedly rebuilt by hand and the red marker
still rendered at the wrong spot on the user's device. Per the user's
explicit instruction the whole page is now a faithful, line-by-line
port of the reference app (QTH定位器 2.0, com.us1pm.gridsquarelocator)
with zero UI or logic changes.
UI (res/layout/main.xml, byte-verified via aapt2 dump):
- 25dp holo-blue GPS bar: "GPS" 14sp, green/red status dot 15dp
(original mipmaps copied as drawables), centered date, right time,
translucent-yellow "设置启用GPS" button that opens location settings
- Latitude/longitude rows: 16sp black labels, right-aligned decimal
values, DMS label format "纬度 22° 18' 50" N" exactly as reference
- 43sp bold black locator, centered, with progress spinner + notice
- 3x3 continuous grid: 60/200/60dp columns, middle row fixed 205dp,
edge cells #0BACF1, center cell 200x200dp holo-blue (#01DDFF as
shown on the user's device), center label 100x80dp 30sp bold white
(textColorHighlight) centered, bottom "制作：US1PM 汉化：BA7LCE"
- Red marker: original pnt.png (red square with white outline),
10x10dp, absolutely positioned by the reference lookup tables
(lon 3rd pair a..x -> leftMargin -2..190dp, lat 3rd pair a..x ->
topMargin 190..-2dp, screen-Y inverted)
Logic (MainActivity.java showLocation/checkEnabled/onResume):
- 8-char locator via the reference range-lookup tables
- 3x3 neighbor grid via parseInt3 five-branch logic incl. all four
corner-carry tables (00/09/99/90)
- Live GPS + network updates 10s/10m while the page is shown,
provider filtered to gps/network, checkEnabled three-state
(green dot / red dot + settings button) exactly like the reference
- Time = cached hour prefix + fix minutes; date "dd MMM yyyy"
Dropped only the Play-store ad banner (conflicts with GPL project).
Verified: 11 unit tests pass (locator, marker lookup, grid, DMS,
time, all edge branches); feature + app modules compile.
RoamingState.kt removed - state and math now live in RoamingScreen.kt.
Match page UI:
- Always show a meaningful status line in the top bar instead of leaving the second row blank on first entry.
- Add a compact status chip for waiting, calculating, result, no-match, and error states.
- Remove the duplicate intro card so the first screen starts directly with station inputs.
Pass list sun times:
- Compute sunrise/sunset from each visible date group's 00:00 in the selected timezone.
- Avoid using an arbitrary pass AOS as the rise/set search start, which could jump later-day headers to the following day's events.
The marker's vertical position was hardcoded (10dp below the label) — markerY never participated, so the dot could only move horizontally and could not reflect where the GPS fix sits inside the 4-char square.
Now the marker is positioned in both axes from the cell's top-left corner:
- x = markerX * cellWidth, y = markerY * cellHeight (screen Y)
- markerX/markerY come from the 3rd character pair via the reference lookup tables (lon a=-2..x=190 as leftMargin; lat a=190..x=-2 as topMargin, i.e. latitude inverted on screen)
- Verified numerically against the decompiled tables: a=0/1.0, i=0.333/0.667, x=0.958/0.042 — matching within 3% (the reference table is slightly non-uniform)
Label stays at upper-middle (28sp bold); marker is only drawn when a valid locator exists.
Two bugs from the last release:
1. The header clock was frozen: Date() was only evaluated during recomposition, and with no state changes the time never moved. Added a 1s LaunchedEffect ticker that updates a now-state, so the date/time text re-renders and actually advances — matching the reference app, which refreshes the clock on every location callback.
2. GPS indicator: replaced the 10-minute freshness check with a direct 'has a real fix' check (timestamp > 0 and coords non-zero). The page mirrors the station position (站位) from the shared StateFlow, so the GPS dot is green whenever the station has a fix — GPS shows exactly what the station GPS says, nothing more.
Reworks the Roaming grid to structurally match the reference app instead of a card-style panel:
- Removed the outer ElevatedCard, rounded cells, cell gaps and inner padding: the 3x3 grid is now one continuous table that fills the panel, cells connected edge-to-edge.
- Cells separated by 2dp divider lines that run the full width/height of each row/column, crossing at right angles like a real coordinate grid (the reference app's continuous separator lines).
- Cells are square-cornered (no rounded corners), background fills each cell fully.
- Column widths 21.4% : 56.2% : 21.4%, row heights 31.5% : 35.9% : 31.7% retained.
- Center cell: OL42 is larger (28sp bold) and placed at upper-middle; the red marker sits BELOW the text with a 10dp gap, horizontally offset by the 3rd-pair fraction — never overlapping the label, matching the reference 'text above, marker below' layout.
- Surrounding labels bumped to 16sp Medium (larger/stronger than before).
- Info header also switched from an ElevatedCard to a flat continuous block so the page reads as one continuous surface, like the reference.
The grid proportions, locator algorithm, marker mapping and boundary logic were already faithful; this change makes the visual structure faithful too.
Reverts the auto-update machinery after review — the page now simply mirrors the station position (站位) from the shared settingsRepo.stationPosition StateFlow, exactly what the Settings page shows:
- RoamingScreen: removed the LocationManager listeners, the 30s re-request loop, the provider filter and the location-disabled hint. No polling, no auto-updates; coordinates are whatever the station GPS says.
- Settings: removed the '漫游位置实时更新' toggle (stateOfRoamingLive, key, action, strings en/zh/tr) that caused the 'Other' card to overflow — the sixth unlabeled switch clipped past the card's rounded bottom edge was that row overflowing a fixed-height card. Card height back to 268.dp, five rows fit again.
Verified: core:domain tests, roaming/settings/app compile clean; zero references to RoamingLive remain.
Completes the port of the QTH定位器 app's location logic (read from the decompiled MainActivity):
1. Live location updates: a LocationListener registers GPS+NETWORK providers (10s / 10m, matching the reference onResume) while the Roaming page is visible and removes itself on dispose. Every fix is pushed through settingsRepo.setStationPosition, so the shared stationPosition StateFlow updates the Settings page and the map in lockstep — the page now refreshes in real time instead of only showing stale cached coordinates.
2. Provider filtering: only gps/network fixes are accepted, mirroring the reference showLocation() guard that rejects passive fixes.
3. Location-disabled hint: when GPS is off or permission is missing, the header shows a tappable '定位未开启,点击前往系统设置' row that opens ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS — the port of the reference btnLocationSettings button. The GPS status dot now has three states: fresh fix (primary), provider on but stale (error), provider off (outline).
4. Periodic recovery: a 30s re-request loop (honoring the 漫游位置实时更新 toggle) re-arms the location request after the chip falls idle.
Not ported (conflict, deliberate): the reference app's Play-store ad banner, 'New! Grid Square with map' promo and GP_IN preferences — commercial advertising does not belong in a GPL satellite tracker.
Addresses three review findings:
1. Coordinates now come straight from settingsRepo.stationPosition in the screen (collectAsStateWithLifecycle) — the exact same StateFlow the Settings page shows. Previously a separate ViewModel re-derived them, and it could lag behind the Settings page (user: '设置页更新了站位但漫游页死活不更新'). With the shared source the two pages can never disagree. RoamingViewModel removed; state derivation moved to RoamingState.fromPosition().
2. Red marker placement ported faithfully from the QTH定位器 app: it is driven by the 3rd character pair of the 8-char locator (the 'ih' in OL42ih45), mapped to a 0..1 fraction (lon a=west..x=east, lat inverted a=south..x=north), then scaled to the actual center-cell size. The grid now uses the reference proportions (columns 21.4/56.2/21.4, rows 31.5/35.9/31.7) and fills the screen, so the marker lands accurately on any device.
3. Workflow now uploads a versioned APK (look4sat-<version>.apk instead of look4sat.apk).
Also: Settings 'Other' card rows got vertical spacing (Arrangement.spacedBy) so the new roaming toggle is not glued to the night-mode row.
Rework the Roaming page after user review. It is now a faithful port of the QTH定位器 location panel, not a loose re-skin:
UI (matching the reference layout):
- GPS status dot (real: green when a fresh fix exists, outline when stale/missing) + date + time header
- Lat/Lon rows with DMS and 5-decimal display, big 8-char locator centered below
- 3x3 grid of neighboring 4-char squares with the reference proportions: center column ~2.6x wider (21.4% : 56.2% : 21.4%) and center row the tallest (31.5% : 35.9% : 31.7%); red position marker now placed at the fractional position of the fix inside the center cell (was fixed center)
- No oversized GPS button: live updating is now a Settings toggle '漫游位置实时更新' (stateOfRoamingLive, default on) that drives periodic location refresh
Style & night-mode safety:
- All colors come from MaterialTheme.colorScheme (surfaceVariant/secondaryContainer/error) — no hardcoded cyan/blue from the original app. The red night filter (ColorMatrix keeping only the R channel) blanked the old hardcoded palette; theme colors survive it.
- Chinese nav label '漫游' added to values-zh (was missing, showing English 'Roaming')
Settings:
- OtherSettings.stateOfRoamingLive persisted (default true), toggle row in Other card, height adjusted
Verified: feature:roaming, feature:settings, app compile clean.
The 768m heap cap broke GitHub Actions (KSP OutOfMemoryError: Metaspace) because CI runners read the same gradle.properties. Restore -Xmx6g for CI; the 2GB local server should pass a one-off -Dorg.gradle.jvmargs instead.
Next release: versionCode 445 -> 446, versionName 4.4.5 -> 4.4.6. Adds the Roaming page (QTH定位器-style 3x3 Maidenhead grid) between Match and Settings, credits BG7NTA & the original author in the thanks title, and caps local Gradle heap for the 2GB build server.
Include feature:roaming/build.gradle.kts (missed from the module commit) and keep the reduced Gradle heap (-Xmx768m) so local light builds don't freeze the 2GB server.
The settings outro title now reads 'BG7NTA & the original author would like to thank' (en) / 'BG7NTA 与原作者感谢' (zh) / 'BG7NTA ve orijinal yazar teşekkür eder' (tr), alongside the BA7OPF/BG7NTA entries added to the credits list.
Ports the QTH定位器 (com.us1pm.gridsquarelocator) location panel into Look4Sat as a new 'Roaming' page, restyled with the app's own look.
UI (top to bottom):
- Info header: GPS status dot, big 8-char locator, Lat/Lon rows with DMS + 5-decimal display, and a GPS 定位 button
- 3x3 grid panel: the current 4-char Maidenhead square (e.g. OL42) centered, surrounded by its 8 neighbors (OL33..OL51), with a red position marker in the center cell
Logic:
- QthConverter gains qthNeighbors(square) building the 3x3 grid with field/square carry at boundaries (AA00 wraps to RR99, IO91 crosses into J field), and qthToSquare(locator) extracting the 4-char square
- Verified against the decompiled app algorithm and the reference screenshot (OL42 grid matches exactly); 9 unit tests cover normal, boundary and field-wrap cases
Navigation:
- New bottom-nav item 'Roaming' between Match and Settings, with a crosshair icon
- New feature:roaming module (ViewModel + Compose screen) registered in the app
Build config:
- Lowered Gradle JVM heap from -Xmx6g to 768m: the 2GB build server froze on the old value; heavy release builds stay on GitHub Actions
Merge upstream commit 2298d8ee 'feat: add mutual radar overlay arrows'. Clean auto-merge: upstream changed RadarView.kt arrow drawing, our sweep optimization stayed intact. No conflicts.
First v4.4.5 was built from c3444aed; this release rebuilds from the merged tree.
