* IMU Updates
Updated BMI270 and MPU6886 with the mount-matrix.
Updated devices i can test with the mount-matrix. papers3, stackchan (cores3), sticks3, tab5, waveshare-s3-lcd-13, waveshare-s3-lcd-128
Devices not changed and not tested because i don't own them are:
MPU6886 - core2, stickc-plus2.
BMI270 - cardputer-adv
* Update device.properties
* No USB here! CH343P
- Introduce "side" mode for system bar, versus classic statusbar on top with launcher bar below
- Automatic system bar mode detection with override by Kconfig/device.properties and secondary override by user via Appereance settings app
- Open a quick-settings menu from the status bar for available Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and power controls.
- Apps can display overlays with backdrop or Escape-key dismissal.
- Added focus-container support and improved keyboard navigation, including Fn+Enter on Cardputer devices.
- Power-off controls are available on supported device cards.
- Updated status-bar layouts, simulator display dimensions, and toolbar navigation styling.
- I²C scanning now supports selecting individual buses to rescan.
- SD-card mount status is no longer shown in the status bar.
- Implement ST7305 driver at `Drivers/st7305-module`
- Rename `cl32` device project to `cl32-v02-v03` and removed v0.4 drivers
- Implement CL-32 v0.4 device as `cl32-v04`: display, keyboard, backlight/frontlight driver and power supply
- Remove `TT_LAUNCHER_APP_ID` (it was always the same setting)
- Remove `TT_LVGL_STATUSBAR_COLORS_INVERTED` (unused since recent changes)
- Wi-Fi only refreshes once, so users can navigate with the keyboard through the results, without constently resetting focus/selection. After initial scan, manual scans can be requested via the toolbar.
- Themes: material and material_mono theme don't show post-selection border animation anymore. It looks weird on monochrome devices and it doesn't add anything on other devices either.
- Made `merge.sh` executable
- backlight driver API change: min/max brightness functions are now optional, defaults to [0, 255]
- Implemented themes with LSS: material, material mono
- Implemented grid-based navigation
- Added new Launcher
- Updated Appearance app to add theme configuration
- Updated various apps to improve UX/UI
- Added LVGL widgets: cards, badges, chips, icon buttons
- Added support for round/rounded displays
- Added the concept of insets to LVGL and implemented it in toolbar + statusbar
- Terminal app now hides toolbar by default, but tapping the terminal toggles visibility
- File browsing now opens the configured user-data location by default
- Added missing licenses to subprojects
- Updated README.md screenshots and intro text
DTS modules (device modules) often have a single source file with an empty `struct Module`.
The module's yaml file now allows a `dts-only` boolean to be set, so the source file becomes optional.
`devicetree.yaml` is renamed everywhere to `module.yaml`
- Enable BT by default in DTS, and create separate radio on/of functionality (like recent Wi-Fi changes)
- Bluetooth event handling now uses queued subscriptions, improving event delivery and application responsiveness.
- Improved synchronization of Bluetooth advertising, connections, HID, MIDI, and SPP operations.
- Enhanced cleanup during Bluetooth shutdown and subscription removal.
- Clarified Bluetooth start and stop behavior.
- Improved wifi driver subscription stability to prevent endless loops
Event handling:
- Added unified event handling for application, system, and Wi‑Fi events.
- Updated all apps to reflect event handling changes
Wi-Fi:
- Refactored event handling from listener interface to task & event group.
- Added direct Wi‑Fi radio controls and improved event subscriptions.
- Wi‑Fi screens now refresh asynchronously and handle unavailable devices more gracefully.
- Enabled Wi‑Fi by default on in dts files, but radio on/off is still done by code. The main reason was reliable event subscription and consistent devicetree states.
- Improved Wi‑Fi shutdown cleanup and radio-state handling.
Other:
- Renamed the Kernel Display app to Display.
- Disable BlueTooth driver by default, to ensure it doesn't allocate memory
- Update BlueTooth settings app behaviour to make sure it starts/stops the devices
- Disable SPI RAM usage for ST7789 as it broke App Hub
- Reduce T-Display and T-Deck display buffers from 1/3rd to 1/10th of resolution
- Enabled dynamic buffers for MbedTLS to optimize memory
- TLS 1.3 did not work with dynamic buffers: downgrade to 1.2 for now
- WiFi is now enabled from the Boot app callback to the WiFi service, instead of the WiFi service start() function. This avoids a lockup when WiFi is started by the service while the Boot app is updating the WiFi settings.
- New drivers:
- SD SPI
- spi_peripheral
- touch_placeholder
- display_placeholder
- Devicetree compiler:
- Implement phandle-arrays
- Implement device addresses
- Add placeholder drivers to all devices with a SPI display
- SPI driver: add `cs-pins` and set them to high on driver start
- FileSystem: add `file_system_set_owner()` and `file_system_get_owner()`
- File locking is now checking if the related `FileSystem` is part of a shared SPI bus
- Add `device_get_child_count()`
- SDMMC driver: Remove default of `slot` value
- Fix for Crowpanel Basic 3.5" display (add delay to booting)
- Fix for LilyGO T-HMI SD card mounting (delayed mounting by disabling it initially in the dts)
Font size set to 18 for 800x480 displays
Fix web server dashboard not rendering when sdcard isn't present
Added new driver modules
- BM8563 RTC
- RX8130CE RTC
- MPU6886 IMU
- QMI8658 IMU
- M5PM1 Power Management Chip
Applied the above modules to applicable devicetrees.
Added new device: M5Stack StickS3
Added new M5Stack Tab5 St7123 variant.
ButtonControl changed to use interupts and xQueue, added AppClose action.
And some bonus symbols of course, the apps are hungry for symbols.
