Historic Beta and RC Releases

Version (rev.)	released on	Changes
1.1.0 (903)	6.1.2012	Introducing MDA Admin for configuration and other maintenance tasks Measurement profiles fully dynamic. Decimal number format handled better with unified internal representation but localized user presentation. Dropped mirroring of pending and suspended tours to SD card, due to poor reliability of memory cards. The hypothetical situation of a device dying without the memory card beeing damged seems negligable. Tour navigation enhancements Tours can be aborted, not only suspended The first page of a measurement assistant for a single measurement point does not force performing the measurement.any more. It is possible to go back and more using the back and menu buttons. There is now a "fast mode" that jumps to the next measurement point right away. With the newly introduced options (see former change list item) it is still possible to switch elsewhere. When barcode scanning is used to change the order of measurements in a tour, there is no more backcheck, only a passive information The tour to start can now be selected faster because the step "select from list" has been eliminated When starting a tour and selecting the employee to assign, the most recent employee to start a tour can be assigned with one click Crash reporting (without data leaving the organisation): If a crash occurs, a detailed report is created and persisted. Data synchronization with the MDA server uploads these reports to the server, which then can be given to developers.
1.0.5	16.12.2012	Fixed empty userId and wrong employee name after scanning user barcode Implementing lot's of feedback from 2 intense test rounds by first customer Refactored entering of measurment data to use generic screens ("activities"), removing 1 of 2 hard-coded layers of measurement profile processing Several minor other fixes and enhanements
1.0.4	5.12.2012	Changed storage policy. Internal Storage is now the main storage, SD card only use for backups of pending tours and configuration injection. All buttons supporting the allegro's orange function key now have right arrow
1.0.3	28.11.2012	NPE at redoing of a Measurement from the End-Of-Tour-Screen fixed Demo tours may now have 16 measurement points Main screen now has direct link to WLAN and network settings (will be moved to a less aggressive place lateron) When synching, downloads now happen before uploads, so upload problems (like xml disputes with server) do not block updates of download data Tours refused by the server with a bad response code (like in case of xml disputes) are now moved aside to a directory tours/upload-failures/ Demo app now uses https: connection to mda-demo.iteg.at Main screen menu now provides short links to WLAN and system settings (can be configured away though) Removed obsolete "Exit" from main screen menu
1.0.2	22.12.2012	Minimal Android version now 2.2, not 2.3.3. Sideeffekt: No "installated on" date in about-box and update screen, no SERIAL in about-box
1.0.1	20.11.2012	Detection of missing memory card Measureround selectable using Barcodes Navigation buttons (Next, Previous) now contains arrows and are closer to skeye.allegro's orange function buttons that trigger them Several other usability and robustness enhancements
