Gemian v4 Notes
---------------
This Gemian release expects the latest android version to be installed (2021-03-02 - v25).
This release is mostly about moving from the droid-hal-cosmopda-bin to the lxc-android packages.
The main reason for this is to be able to support the same amount of hardware as UBPorts, and reduce the amount of code on the device that is not publicly reviewable, for more details see:
https://github.com/gemian/gemian/wiki/UpdateAndroidSystemLXCImage#cosmo-communicatorGemian usually supports the usual Debian apt update/upgrade path, but in this case we strongly recomend a fresh install as the removal of droid-hal-cosmopda-bin will also freeze your X11 session, disable WiFi and probably leave you in a right pickle. Further details:
https://github.com/gemian/gemian/wiki/UpdateAndroidSystemLXCImage#updatesAs we are suggesting a re-install we've also taken the opportunity to improve the user experience. During installation a menu gives you the option to select the HW Keyboard inside your device and your local time zone. On first boot these will configure your Gemian installation, and be remembered for future installations. The same process that set the keyboard and timezone also re-randomises your machine ID and ssh host info to avoid all Cosmo's with the same install version appearing as the same device. If you have a dual language keyboard the default will probably be your native language rather than the latin/english required for the default login password so you will need to press both left&right shift keys to swap before being able to login.
The camera-app as used on the Gemini is now also working on the Cosmo. Though if you still have the old /vendor partition due to not having updated to the latest Android release it will not work.
We've moved from the gemian-lock to kscreenlocker to give a more Plasma like experience and added the quick shortcuts familiar to Gemini users (where they controled connman) to now work with Network Manager as on the Cosmo, you can now turn on/off some features more easily from the lock screen, Ctrl-W (WiFi), Ctrl-B (BT), Ctrl-C (Cellular).
Bluetooth is known to be problematic, scan+pair+trust work but connections almost always fail.
Previously we had both repowerd and powerdevil trying to control sleep timing causing the screen to flick off/on and then a bit later off, we've encouraged them to play more nicely together. Though overall powermanagement is still a work in progress, currently Cosmo battery drain is ten times worse compared to Gemini.
This release also includes Android side Kernel fixes to 2021-02-06 (v25).
