Smashing Bugs for WIP-Release v0.1.25-alpha

Created by: SecUpwN

Dear @xLaMbChOpSx, I know you have a rough time here. Another new Issue? Sigh - I'm sure you're not too happy about that. Furthermore, it appears that currently multiple Issues from previous WIP-Releases are cramped into one Issue, upgrading these to "Monster Issues" - that's NOT the fault of @E3V3A, but of the partially very fast development with new WIP-Releases in the middle. And that is a GOOD thing! But since you're currently pretty much alone on this journey (working to resolve that soon), I bet you're a little lost on what to work on.

Fret no more, here comes a cool new feature I'd like to take advantage of: Nested task lists!

So this is what I'll do with this new "Issue": I will review and ELIMINATE all "Monster Issues" (aka "v0.1.xx-alpha Bug Reports: Add your bugs here!") to comfortably list those Issues dragged from previous WIP-Releases up until now to be RESOLVED for WIP-Release 0.1.25 - this should allow for some time. And please, @xLaMbChOpSx, TAKE YOUR TIME! Really, I mean it. If you're upset about how things are being processed here, please talk to me on XDA. I'm a firm believer of the theory that god gave everyone a mouth to use it and to also voice constructive criticism. Please don't hesitate to tell me what you'd like to see changed.

@xLaMbChOpSx and @E3V3A, please help me on this to clear things up: Please TICK the things that are SOLVED! Thank you, folks. 🌻

Remember: When all these things are done, we're automatically at WIP-Release 0.1.25. Take it easy. We should also not forget to release the versions in the middle up until 0.1.25 fixing the other Issues.

Reported bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.10-alpha, Issue #49 (closed)

Database Viewer: "Signal Strength Data" is empty, but warning is given
Database Viewer: When "Cell Data" is selected and doesn't contain any data, no warning is given

Map settings are not saved between views
Updates of OpenCellID need to be downloaded again when going to the map
OpenCellID data seem irregular: Sometimes showing some towers at other times not
On main window, try to make some kind of indication of, when values have recently changed
Do we have any measure about the polling time? I mean, how fast do these variables update?

Reported bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.11-alpha, Issue #53 (closed)

Database Viewer: "Cell Data" has entries with CellID = -1

Reported bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.13-alpha, Issue #58 (closed)

Menu: "Update OpenCellID Data", gives the error message "Unable to determine your last location!"
When disabling "tracking cell info", it should also disable "location tracking". But not vice versa.

Reported bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.14-alpha, Issue #62 (closed)

Map View: Current "Map Type" selection is not shown. (perhaps add a radio button?)
The "Update OpenCellID Data" function is not possible before enabling location tracking
Re-implement the manual AT command entry from older version. Perhaps in a new slide page?
Add automatic refresh of the "Cell Information" (ServiceMode data)
Add a "Preferences" settings item for the refresh rate above. Something like:
Manual
MAX (as fast as possible) Warning: Leaving this on may consume excessive battery power
1s, 2s, 5s, 10s, 30s, 1min, 5 min, etc.
Automatic (when change is detected, should be default)

Bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.15-alpha, (not reported)

When there is no mobile network coverage, the app crashes and FC's upon start.

Bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.16-alpha, (not reported)

FC's when trying to view map on I9100 SlimKat 4.4.2. Just before FC, logcat shows several warnings from GooglePlayServicesUtil: "Google Play services out of date. Requires 4452000 but found 4325034."

Bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.17-alpha, (not reported)

Doesn't let you update OpenCellID without locked location.
Version number is still showing 0.1.16
Are you sure you uploaded the right version?
Refuses to close/quit no matter what the preferences settings

Bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.18-alpha, (not reported) On: S4-mini GT-I9195 stock 4.2.2 SELinux Enforcing

Summary: This version is harder to test on this device. Possibly because of the Enforcing mode, which prevent access to many file locations and other operations. More tests needed with SELinux settings in Enforcing versus Permissive modes, including setting full access to (via EFS files) to the ServiceMenu items.

On: GT-I9100, SlimKat 4.4.2b4

Crashes on "Backup database"
"Settings:Refresh rate": Changing has no effect.
Attemting to download OCI DB crashes if no GPSlock has been found.

Summary: Most things that was causing crashes for the I9195 above, is working on this device, apart what is mentioned above. Neighboring cells look better and more clear. More testing needed. (I have a very bad battery and no gps-lock near outlet.)

Bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.19-alpha, (not reported) On: S4-mini GT-I9195 stock 4.2.2 SELinux Enforcing

"Settings:Refresh rate": Changing has no effect.
"Neighboring Cells": Hitting refresh, doesn't update list, but only adds previous list (not being able to scroll down), but increments the cell count by one, every time.
Crashes after "Quit" with the message: "Unfortunately Android IMSI-Catcher Detector has stopped.", and then closes. Relevant Logcat HERE.
"Neighboring Cells": Showing "funny code" for all cells. look like perhapsits the PSC ? Need further investigation, also a warning in logcat about length of something.

On: GT-I9100, SlimKat 4.4.2b4

"Settings:Refresh rate": Changing has no effect.

Summary: Most things that was causing crashes for the I9195 before have been fixed, apart what is mentioned above.

Bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.20-alpha, (not reported)

General UI/UX improvements (all devices):

UI: remove "line number" item from Device Information
UI: Change "Network CellID" name to "Network CID" (or is there a another reason for using that?) and move it under "LAC" item. (These usually go together.)
"About": Change the text background color to be the same as for the rest of the screen.
Install Buttons: Can we change them from "next to each other" to stacked? So that we can fit the text above next to the buttons?

On: GT-I9100, SlimKat 4.4.2b4

Funny behavior when using "Persistence" OFF and "Tracking" ON, and then trying to Quit, or stopping GPS. With the result that the app refuses to close.

On: S4-mini GT-I9195 stock 4.2.2 SELinux Enforcing

SU/Busybox checks should be done when opening Application and not later. (Unless necessary.)
"AT" works but output goes to the shell where cat /dev/smd0 & was issued... Need more test.
There is this item called "Line Number" under Device Information. What is that? Do we need it? (On my phone it just shows the IMSI, which is already shown under SIM info.)
After "Quit" the App now refuses to shutdown, even though Persistence is OFF. Service issue. (?)

Bugs from WIP-Release 0.1.21-alpha, (not reported) GT-I9195:

Crashes when entering Map Viewer without initial GPS-lock/location
Need roller/spinner for informing on the status of OCI download
DB:LocationData has 0x7FFFFFFF values (shown in dec) for CID and LAC
Cell Inforamtion:NeighboringCells has 0x7FFFFFFF values (shown in dec) for all fields
Cell Inforamtion:NeighboringCells show no indication of refresh
