ATAK 4.9 #177

Closed hallchorn23 closed 9 months ago

hallchorn23 commented 1 year ago

Is there an apk coming that is comparable with atak 4.9 ?

Thanks so much

paulmandal commented 1 year ago

Support for 4.9.x will come in the next month or so, after which the plugin won't support earlier versions anymore.

timclassic commented 1 year ago

If I wanted to give this a try myself, is it just a matter of compiling against the 4.9 SDK? Or do you expect there is more to it than that?

Hello! Do you have any ETA for now?

Tahkis commented 1 year ago

Could we have a compiled version of Forwarder 2.0.7 for ATAK 4.8.1? Currently the latest release only supports up to ATAK 4.7. Or was there some particular reason why the 4.8.1 release of 2.0.7 does not exist?

Btw, when do you think you would be able to get the Forwarder 2.0.8 supporting ATAK 4.9 out? Will that also support ATAK 4.8.1 then?

@Tahkis I think you missed the part from the 2.0.7 release note

For now the plugin will not support ATAK versions after 4.7.0.x. The plugin API changed in 4.9.x and I don't 
want to maintain two versions of the plugin codebase for now, so likely we will migrate to the new plugin API 
in the next month or so. There is also an issue in later versions where the plugin cannot connect to the 
Meshtastic service that I need to sort out before supporting those versions.

I know people love this project, but have some patience

Hi Paul, No problem, fully understand! Pitty the pipe has broken :-(

But as you said, lots of people seem to love this project :-)

If you need any help in testing I'm happy to contribute!

Cheers, Tatu

ps. I also got the Samsung Xcover 4s QR code reader to work w/ Forwarder. Not sure why it is so picky in scanning but requires a bit of vertical movement over the code to scan -> makes sharing of the code possible.

pps But there clearly seems an issue in comms between the MT app and Plugin. Eg configuring MT client using plugin does not work even in Android

  1. I'm able to get the green CFG icon on but only if I conf from MT app itself (and have the setting Plugin Manages Device = OFF). Yet no data gets transfered over MT between ATAKs via Forw nor does the device discovery work. And I am 100% sure the channel conf is equal in both radios. And all this in A11 w/ ATAK 4.8.1, Forw 2.0.6 and MT 2.1.15.
