This version adds (see also \Programs\_mackxpatch\readme.txt):
- Modified mdbindex to give all files in Programs/Install automatically a 'install'-tag.
- Remember lock-state of (DR1000) keys and updated settings to enable the feature. See Settings->Navigation Sensors.
- Merged Clock patch from Iņigo
- Add configuration item in Clock Settings and schema file: Settings->Time&Clock
- Merged Shortcut-thumbnail patch from Iņigo
- Updated documentation.

So, my standard disclaimer: This is also a big hack, only very limited tested by me and less mature then 'normal', so my advise is to use it on the QEMU first. (Only the dare-devils should install it on their DR1000. :-)

The new features are getting more complicated and my explanation skills are not that good, so feel free to ask questions here (after reading the UserManual )

I created a new Bitbucket-repository: https://bitbucket.org/mackx/dr1000-hackx/overview with the changed source files. (Need to add p8 tag.)

(The patch also includes the changes from all previous patches. The file needs to be extracted to your SD-card)
Hi, Mackx

2 comments:
- I've been thinking in disabling clock during last weeks, it seems to decrease the battery life ~30%. Can you check it on your DR1000?
- Regarding sources in BB: could you add different commits for each version? i.e. one for original firmware, then r1, then r2 and so on.
This way it would make easier for any of us to keep the development and isolate different features or improvements.
