1.1, build 204 (beta) Pre-release
Pre-release

Changes in build 204

  1. Built-in video player (only with FFmpeg 0.8.12) can only play sound so far. Everything else will need to be worked on later.
  2. The functionality of the post editor has been expanded:
    • added emoji picker
    • now, in addition to photos, it became possible to attach notes
    • in the tablet interface, the window itself is no longer stretched to full screen, but only acts as a dialog

1.1, build 203 (beta) Pre-release
Pre-release

Changes in build 203

  1. Although the player is not working, it searches for A/V streams in a different way - without using the av_find_best_stream method, which should exclude a segmentation error when initializing the decoder.
  2. Removed extra indent from above, which is typical only when using a translucent statusbar in Android 4.4.
  3. Fixed the profile page in the tablet interface - for this, the crutch was removed along with the enumeration of the "Direct message" button type.
  4. Optionally, it is possible to build FFmpeg 0.8.12 on Android NDK r6. Again, see instructions on how to build (https://github.com/openvk/mobile-android-legacy#building).

1.1, build 202 (beta) Pre-release
Pre-release

Changes from build 202

  1. Minor bug fixes.
  2. A custom player to replace ijkplayer using two versions of FFmpeg for different architectures is still in its infancy and therefore its performance is not guaranteed - either a crash with a segmentation error or a video opening error message.
  3. IN ADDITION: Fix build script

By the way, the instructions for building FFmpeg are in the README of the OpenVK Legacy repository.

And since I'm now focused on the development of this player, new features and bug fixes are delayed.

1.1, build 201 (beta) Pre-release
Pre-release

Changes in build 201

  1. Instead of fully downloading as a whole, photos are now loaded only when the index of the array of nested photos is divisible by 10 without a remainder. In this case, there is a possibility that there will be more lags.

Therefore, if this update does not suit you, I can either reduce the array index divisibility to 15 or roll it back to full load.

1.1, build 200 (beta)

1.1, build 200 (beta) Pre-release
Pre-release

Changes from 1.1 build 200

  1. Getting the path to uploadable images through alternative applications, including "Gallery", has been fixed. It is also possible to correct crashes.
  2. Now stubs about the absence of notes in the profile and personal correspondence are shown.
  3. The account menu is now automatically hidden along with the sliding menu.

1.1, build 199 (alpha)

Pre-release

Main changes since 1.1 build 198

  1. Improved emoji support for Android below 4.4. A new component is responsible for this - Twemojicon, which in turn uses the emoji package from Twitter, released under the CC-BY 4.0 license.
  2. Added sending attachments before publishing. Only photos are available at the moment.
  3. Added notes with the ability to view in the most visible place - in the side menu, with a design inspired by the Symbian S60 shell.
  4. Added three themes to choose from (they are all light, only with different colors: blue, gray and black)
  5. Added support for multiple accounts in different instances and account submenu in the side menu. You no longer need to re-login a hundred times due to some kind of failure, which does not allow you to fully use the application. The original application could not boast of this due to the current rules of VKontakte.
  6. Added the ability to set low quality cached photos in conditions of low Internet speed. Welcome to 2013, where ultra-budget phones did not even have 3G support and in some CIS countries there were no 3G towers as such!

Also there

  1. Most of the source code of both the API and the graphic component as a whole has been reconstructed for the sake of simplification, further cleaning from solid crutches and adding new APIs in the future, in addition to OpenVK.
  2. The lists of friends, groups and correspondences have been adapted to the tablet interface, no longer leaving empty spaces.
  3. Slightly redesigned some layouts used in dialog boxes.
  4. Efficient photo caching is now fully guaranteed, thanks to one more component - the UniversalImageLoader library.
  5. Improved the functionality of some sections of the application, such as "Global Search" and "Wall Post".
  6. Replaced the wrapped HTTP(S) Apache client with HttpUrlWrapper, which in turn uses the HttpUrlConnection client and provides better support for both old and new versions of Android.
  7. By default, the "Safe Browsing Posts" filter is enabled, hiding posts marked "Contains NSFW Content".
