- Fixed crash when returning to Setup app (from any of the steps)
- Fixed crash when returning to TimeDateSettings app (after locale selection)
- Fixed GuiService inconsistent behaviour: now always perform operations async (e.g. to show/hide apps). This fixes crashes in some onHide() calls where onHide() might be called before onShow() was called.
- Fix for incorrect WebServService path
- Remove CYD-4848S040C SD card functionality, but added a GPIO fix for releasing 3-wire SPI pin sharing.
- Fix for saving/loading settings for various apps
- 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)
