- Lcd devices won't use the SurfaceView, just the good old native content/window (except AndroidTv and ChromeOS)
- All android dialogs will be presented with Material Design on recent devices.
- Added an option to device settings to manage application battery optimization.
- Permissions that require the user to go to a settings page will be presented with a native android dialog.
- bump android-luajit-launcher
- Changes under the hood: koreader/android-luajit-launcher#257
2 new widgets:
- QRWidget, that's like an ImageWidget, but with a text property that will be converted to a QR code ;
- QRMessage, that's like an InfoMessage, but shows the message as QR code.
Moreover, it adds the ability to export QR codes to the text editor.
1 new plugin:
- Generate QR codes from clipboard
Changes to text editor plugin:
- Add the ability to export QR codes.
Have ReaderBack be the sole handler of onBack.
Add 4 mutually exclusive options for the Back key,
to avoid ReaderLink and ReaderBack location stacks
from interfering (ReaderBack's stack being always a
superset of ReaderLink's stack).
So, remove "Enable back history", which is replaced
by Back option "Go to previous read page".
Fix a few possible crashes and inconsistencies (when
zoom, scroll or reflow have changed) with ReaderPaging
and ReaderView when restoring previous page/view.
Adaptively pins the auto-standby UI lock. When frequent input
from user is observed, we'll prevent for increasingly longer
periods of time, and revert back to more aggressive standby
with infrequent input (infrequent taps when reading a book).
* Be even more defensive around KoboUSBMS handling in the startup script
And add some more logging. To the log before a session, to the syslog
after, because we can't be sure onboard is viable.
* Display a short version string straight in the Version label
* Move system statistics inside the Help menu
* Move Version inside Help
* Bump base

* Revamped most actions that require an internet connection to a new/fixed backend that allows forwarding the initial action and running it automatically once connected. (i.e., it'll allow you to set "Action when Wi-Fi is off" to "turn_on", and whatch stuff connect and do what you wanted automatically without having to re-click anywhere instead of showing you a Wi-Fi prompt and then not doing anything without any other feedback).
* Speaking of, fixed the "turn_on" beforeWifi action to, well, actually work. It's no longer marked as experimental.
* Consistently use "Wi-Fi" everywhere.
* On Kobo/Cervantes/Sony, implemented a "Kill Wi-Fi connection when inactive" system that will automatically disconnect from Wi-Fi after sustained *network* inactivity (i.e., you can keep reading, it'll eventually turn off on its own). This should be smart and flexible enough not to murder Wi-Fi while you need it, while still not keeping it uselessly on and murdering your battery.
(i.e., enable that + turn Wi-Fi on when off and enjoy never having to bother about Wi-Fi ever again).
* Made sending `NetworkConnected` / `NetworkDisconnected` events consistent (they were only being sent... sometimes, which made relying on 'em somewhat problematic).
* restoreWifiAsync is now only run when really needed (i.e., we no longer stomp on an existing working connection just for the hell of it).
* We no longer attempt to kill a bogus non-existent Wi-Fi connection when going to suspend, we only do it when it's actually needed.
* Every method of enabling Wi-Fi will now properly tear down Wi-Fi on failure, instead of leaving it in an undefined state.
* Fixed an issue in the fancy crash screen on Kobo/reMarkable that could sometime lead to the log excerpt being missing.
* Worked-around a number of sneaky issues related to low-level Wi-Fi/DHCP/DNS handling on Kobo (see the lengthy comments [below](https://github.com/koreader/koreader/pull/6424#issuecomment-663881059) for details). Fix#6421
Incidentally, this should also fix the inconsistencies experienced re: Wi-Fi behavior in Nickel when toggling between KOReader and Nickel (use NM/KFMon, and run a current FW for best results).
* For developers, this involves various cleanups around NetworkMgr and NetworkListener. Documentation is in-line, above the concerned functions.
use `device` `filemanager` `rolling` and `paging` sections to organize the
dispatcher menu and allow the user to know when the action will apply
add events from ReaderGesture
allow profiles in FM
* landscape FM / Refactor rotation
refactor and simplify the orientation handling code. the user generally cares about the rotation (what direction the device is facing) and not about if koreader is displaying in portrait or landscape mode
* bump base
update luasocket, libjpeg-turbo, curl
add logging to evernote-sdk-lua
update framebuffer for proper rotation
Err, kind of nitpick PR. Is just add some "permanent" menus other than plugins to the new "more_tools" submenu. So it will never be empty.
Follow-up: #6279
Supersedes: #5512#6092Fixes: #5461
joins calibre metadata search and calibre wireless connections into a single plugin
search metadata changes:
- search directly into calibre metadata files.
- search can be performed on more than one library (configurable from a menu)
- device scans now find all calibre libraries under a given root
- search options can be configured from a menu. (case sensitive, find by title, author and path)
- removed legacy global variables.
- *option* to search from the reader
- *option* to generate a cache of books for faster searches.
calibre wireless connection changes:
- keep track of books in a library (includes prunning books from calibre metadata if the file was deleted locally)
- remove files on device from calibre
- support password protected connections
- FM integration: if we're in the inbox dir it will be updated each time a book is added or deleted.
- disconnect when requested by calibre, available on newer calibre versions (+4.17)
- remove unused opcodes.
- better report of client name, version and device id
- free disk space checks for all calibre versions
- bump supported extensions to match what KOReader can handle. Users can override this with their own list of extensions (or from calibre, by configuring the wireless device).
* generic Device:info() function which returns the model
* add Device:canSuspend() and make it true in all devices that have suspend routines and the emulator
* also enable fake poweroff/reboot on the emulator
* add Device.home_dir
* add Device:hasExitOptions() and update menus & comments
Requires koreader/android-luajit-launcher#233
Requires koreader/koreader-base#1117
It is a workaround for #6263 but can be useful on some devices with erratic back key behaviour too (yep, Onyx)
Specifically, how we ignore it.
No longer do anything specific and potentially racy, and let the
unexpected wakeup handler take care of putting us back to sleep.
Also add an option to only ignore wakeup events from the SleepCover.

Re #5087
Before multiswipes and the gesture manager this was impractical on touch-only devices, but no more!
Also includes some minor textual clarifications on some of the settings.
Manager supports separate gestures for the file manager and the reader. Gestures from the manager have a higher priority than built-in gestures.
Settings available in Gear -> Device -> Gesture manager
This plugin mostly sets up a "Text editor>" submenu, that allows
browsing files, creating a new file, and managing a history of
previously opened file for easier re-opening.
It restore previous scroll and cursor positions on re-opening.
Additional "Check lua" syntax button is added when editing
a .lua file, and prevent saving if errors.
The text editing is mainly provided by the enhanced InputDialog.
InputDialog: added a few more options, the main one being
'save_callback', which will add a Save and Close buttons
and manage saving/discarding/exiting.
If "fullscreen" and "add_nav_bar", will add a show/hide keyboard
button to it.
Moved the preset buttons setup code in their own InputDialog
methods for clarity of the main init code.
Buttons are now enabled/disabled depending on context for feedback
(eg: Save is disabled as long as text has not been modified).
Added util.checkLuaSyntax(lua_string), might be useful elsewhere.
