User-prioritized WaveLog fixes (4.5.5, commit-only per instruction):
- QRZ 对方网格爬虫: QrzGridClient (domain, pure JVM) fetches
https://www.qrz.com/db/{call} with user-supplied cookies (parses
EditThisCookie JSON or raw "k=v; k=v"), extracts Grid Square from
the Detail table. Cookies NEVER built in - entered in settings.
- Settings: WaveLog card top-right gear opens QRZ cookie dialog with
test query button (detects logged-in callsign from cookie, looks up
its grid, shows result or failure in the dialog).
- LogTab: on Enter, async lookup of the other station's grid ->
queue.updateGridsquare -> uploaded with QSO (postQso gridsquare).
- LoTW satellite list: 112 names embedded (lotw.arrl.org config.tq6),
normalizeSatName maps Celestrak TLE names to LoTW names (SAUDISAT-1C
-> SO-50, FUNCUBE-1 -> AO-73, DIWATA-2B -> PO-101, ZARYA/ARISS ->
ARISS); "Update sats" button in WaveLog card downloads the live list
(LotwSatellitesRepo, SharedPreferences persisted, never in build).
- RST: rst_sent/rst_rcvd = 59/59 in both v1 ADIF and v2 JSON.
- Grid mismatch dialog kept (cloud station grid vs station QTH);
QSO gridsquare no longer uses station grid.
- New strings in 5 locales; check_strings 9 files OK.
Verified: core:domain/data + feature:settings/radar + app
compileDebugKotlin BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
User spot-check found FT8 missing from the settings screens list
(SettingsScreen.kt:703) - page order drag/hide UI could not show or
reorder it. Added "nav_ft8 to FT8" after AMSAT (name must match
Screen.screenId). Verified: :feature:settings + :app compileDebugKotlin
BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
User testing round 3 (4.5.4): no success feedback on upload, aprs.fi
shows nothing, passcode calculator OK, notification present.
- Manual report now works even when service not running: ACTION_REPORT_NOW
starts the service first (Toast "not configured" if missing callsign)
- Upload result feedback guaranteed: Toast always shows (short OK /
long fail+reason), last result persisted (time/ok/detail) and shown
in the settings card "Last report: HH:mm:ss OK/failed - detail"
- Position source: station position from settingsRepo (user decision)
with live GPS last-known as fallback
- sendPacket reads the server confirmation line (short 3s timeout);
server error text (Invalid/error) surfaces in Toast + card
- Strings EN/ZH/TR/IN/ID +4 keys
Verified: compileDebugKotlin all modules BUILD SUCCESSFUL,
check_strings 9 files OK.
User feedback round 2 (4.5.4): no notification shown, report not
sending, no error visibility on crash. Diagnosis: APRS-IS port 14580
reachable (verified with real login test), 24580 SSL refused; login
format OK. Fixes:
- Settings dialog: "Compute passcode" button - fills passcode from
callsign via the ported 0x73E2 algorithm (user can see the result)
- Global crash handler in MainApplication: stack trace appended to
files/crash_log.txt so crashes are diagnosable (user: no crash logs
were available before)
- POST_NOTIFICATIONS runtime permission requested when enabling APRS
(Android 13+ otherwise silently hides the service notification)
- AprsIsClient: read the login response (aprsc "# logresp ...
unverified"/"Invalid") and surface the server message as the error
- AprsForegroundService: Toast on manual report result (OK / failure
with server reason)
- Strings EN/ZH/TR/IN/ID +3 keys
Verified: compileDebugKotlin all modules BUILD SUCCESSFUL,
check_strings 9 files OK.
Root cause: user reported crash on enabling APRS with a callsign set
(empty callsign worked because the service stops early and never
reaches startForeground). Android 14+ requires the service to declare
foregroundServiceType when startForeground passes a type; the service
had none -> process died on toggle.
- Manifest: add android:foregroundServiceType="dataSync"
- AprsCard: use startForegroundService() for start/report actions
(Android 8+ standard for foreground services)
- AprsForegroundService: try-catch around startForeground, fallback
stopSelf instead of killing the process
- AprsReporter: passcode "-1" (APRSdroid "no auth" convention) also
auto-computes from callsign
- Merged upstream 418a05e3 (zh wording fix, no conflicts)
Verified: compileDebugKotlin all modules BUILD SUCCESSFUL,
check_strings 9 files OK.
- prefs_aprs_summary uses %2$d but AprsCard passed port.toString()
(String) -> String.format threw IllegalFormatConversionException
on every Settings screen open (crash). Pass Int now.
- Manifest service name was ".AprsForegroundService" (resolves under
applicationId) but the class lives in com.rtbishop.look4sat.app ->
ClassNotFoundException when toggling. Use full class name.
Verified: :feature:settings:compileDebugKotlin + :app:compileDebugKotlin
BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
New feature/status module: fetches https://amsat.org/status/ and
renders a live status grid in the official site colors:
- Parser (AmSatParser): 47 satellites x 6 days x 12 two-hour slots,
official colors (blue=Active, orange=TLM/Beacon, pink=Not Heard,
deep-orange=Conflicting, gray=none); 598+ report details extracted
from inline JS tooltips (callsign/date/time/grid)
- Three-level viz: color grid -> report count -> tap day cell opens
report list dialog
- Manual refresh with spin animation + last-updated timestamp +
legend row; loading/error states
- New "AMSAT" entry in the More menu (Screen.AmSat), integrated with
page-order / hide-page settings (SettingsScreen screens list,
defaultSubMenuOrder, allNavItems, migration for existing users)
- AmSatRepository via IRemoteSource.getStatusHtml() (UA header);
shared remoteSource promoted to a lazy class property in MainContainer
Radar page Log tab: local entries now grouped by pass session with a
thick divider + satellite label between groups (matches the log page).
What's new updated in EN/ZH/TR/IN/ID. Version bumped to 4.5.3/453.
Not released (user gates all releases).
Official code issues found during review (user-reported):
1. GPS "success" was shown instantly even when no fix was obtained:
- setStationPosition() always returned true (permissions exception
swallowed, async requestLocationUpdates without waiting)
- now: suspend + LocationManagerCompat.getCurrentLocation (GPS
first, network fallback), permission check upfront, 15s timeout,
success only when onLocationChanged fires; SettingsRepo takes
Context for the permission check; ViewModel waits for the real
result and shows "Unable to get location - check permission and
GPS/network signal" on failure (4 locales)
2. Data update faked success on total failure:
- updateFromRemote now counts successful sources; 0 success throws
IOException -> timestamp NOT refreshed, Toast "Update failed -
check your network" (4 locales, new IShowToast resId overload)
- OkHttp timeouts widened: connect 15s / read 20s / write 20s
Verified: check_strings OK; all modules compile.
Release intentionally NOT triggered (user: fix everything first, then
one release).
User-test fixes:
1. Log tab frequency now refreshes every second with the transponder
panel (multi-Doppler): selectedRadio derived by uuid from the
per-second transceivers list instead of a remembered stale
reference; display and upload use radio.uplinkLow/downlinkLow
(the same doppler-corrected values the transceiver panel shows).
2. SwipeDeleteRow: content layer now has an opaque background so the
trash icon only appears while swiping (was bleeding through into
the "Sent" column).
3. Settings page order: More-menu items can now move back into the
main menu - button always visible; when the main menu is full (5),
the last non-Settings item is automatically swapped into More.
Verified: check_strings OK (8 files); :app:compileDebugKotlin
BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
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: 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.
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.
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.
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).
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.
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.
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.
With 5-decimal coordinates the Lat/Lon/Qth row overflowed, pushing the QTH value to a wrapped line. Split into two rows: Lat + Lon on the first line, Qth on the second.
Also append BA7OPF (pass matching feature) and BG7NTA to the credits list in en/zh/tr string resources.
- Added support for Icom IC-705 radio model with split mode functionality.
- Updated RadioTrackingService to handle single-radio split mode and dual-radio configurations.
- Modified MainContainer to provide appropriate radio controllers based on selected model.
- Enhanced SettingsRepo to include split mode preference in radio control settings.
- Updated UI in SettingsDialog to allow toggling of split mode for IC-705 and adjust device selection accordingly.
- Improved handling of baud rates based on selected radio model.
- Added extended operations in IRadioController for IC-705 specific commands.
