With this fix Navit finally works again on arm64 (Oneplus 3t)
Nice work!
Do you want to add anything to this, or is it ready to merge? Its still on WIP/Draft Status. And Codefactor is not a Merge blocker for us.
Thank you really much for your work 😄

Hi,
I finally got to add the next batch.

@jkoan thx for testing.
Since you also tested the glib part of this pr #851 there is no doubt about your phone, but if somebody else wants to test pls. report the flavor that is added in the gui_internal about page.
All testing is usefull but it gets even more meaning if the flavor is reported as well.

THX

@metalstrolch
Thx for looking into this POC.
I can't do CARVED_IN_STONE = askaround() but since doc would be appropriate there
https://github.com/navit-gps/navit/blob/trunk/navit/android.c#L70
it would be a good place to add a reference to the CMAKE fixed equivalent.

thx.

Hi,
@jkoan
this apk includes all ABI's still supported today
ndk { abiFilters 'x86', 'x86_64', 'arm64-v8a', 'armeabi-v7a' }
We used to have the older flavor armeabi with one of the old buildscripts, they deleted those from the repo but I think you can still find them.
Support for those was dropped in ndk 17, so use 16b. Minsdk is 9 so that will be ok.

thx again for testing again :)

@jandegr could you give a todo list for this PR whats left to do until we can finaly Rewiew this really nice work and ship it into the coming release?

[jandegr]

@jkoan
after the last update did

• minor cleanup / rework
• fix a regression I introduced for KITKAT
• tested the pedestrian plugin for regressions
• reworked native keyboard, complete upto KITKAT for all orientations and in portrait for versions > KITKAT

todo

• fix native keyboard for versions > KITKAT in landscape orientation
• look into a detail when backgrounded or lost focus
• fullscreen mode to revisit
• etc...
• fix a few household matters with @pgrandin

The lowhanging fruit in the fixes is gone, remaining fixes seem to take longer and longer...
