[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Android Development] Datastream33:
What's going on guys?​

I sincerely hope everyone is doing good, and had a fantastic weekend!

As some of you may know, Amazon has just launched a brand new tablet... the Fire Max 11. In celebration, I'm happy to announce the release of a brand new update for the Windows version of the Toolbox! (man, it's been awhile since the last update!)

So, what's been changed/updated in the new update? Well, let's dive right into the major changes and discuss them in detail!

New Device? Let's Add Support!​

Well, it's finally the day! The day Amazon offically drops the brand new Fire Max 11 tablet! Looking into it, the tablet seems pretty solid! As always, we're not quite sure how the new tablet will play with the Toolbox... but I guess we'll have to find out someway, right? This is just the long way of saying the Toolbox now supports the new tablet. For those of you who have picked one up, could you please get it a try and let us know how it goes? Thanks!

Anyone Up for Modifying the Settings Database?​

Ah, the brand new subtool on the block - it's the Settings Database Modifier!

Inspired by android apps like Settings Database Editor by 4A, I thought it would be cool to create a tool that let's you view, edit, and modify your tablet's settings database directly from the Toolbox. You'll find this beauty in the Modify System Settings tool as an option next to the System UI tab.

I must warn you now that there are some limitations to using the tool. Your mouse's scroll wheel will be disabled in the tool (only in THIS tool), requiring the use of the scrollbars, arrow keys, or by simply clicking to navigate in the listboxes. Of course, this is mostly due to over-complicating the UI... but it isn't a certified datastream tool if that wasn't the case I'm afraid!

As far as changing a database value goes, all you need to do is double click the one you want to change in the list, and then a new panel will pop up and from there you can set a new value and save changes. Pretty cool stuff aye?

Anyway, for those of you who are curious about what's in the settings database... I'd highly recommend giving the new subtool a try! Also, let me know what you think about it... if you don't mind that is!

New Coat of Paint and Improvements for the Push & Pull tool?​

Ah, now this is one of the tools I really wanted to dive into and improve. We started first with the UI and worked on updating it to match the UI of the Python port's Push & Pull tool design. Not only did the UI get an update, but we also took the liberty of making several more improvements to the tool. Let's take a closer look...

Pathing - Paths are now validated before they are used as the working directory. This includes escaping special characters (such as spaces) which would normally lead to an incorrect path being used. In addition, the list directories and files functions have been updated to ensure the proper contents are displayed in their proper panels - so directories with periods (.) will no longer appear in the files column.

We've also added a refresh button so you no longer have to navigate to a new path and back to the previous just to update the file/directory listings.

Next, 2 new tabs were added at the bottom of the tool:

Tasks - Shows a list of all currently running operations.

Logs - keeps track of all completed operation results, such as success and failure operations.

But perhaps the most import improvement to the tool... you can now have 4 tasks running at the the same instead of the previous limit of 1. No more waiting for a single task to complete!

Some Changes on YouTube Clients...​

As some of you may know, TeamVanced recieved an Cease and Desist order from Google and the Vanced project was shut down. However, even though the project stopped, TeamVanced assured that the last release would still work until sometime in 2023... and as of recently that sadly has happened as advertised :(

So as a result, the option to install Vanced has been removed from the Toolbox. However, to accomidate for the empty slot Vanced left behind a new client has been added. This new client is called SkyTube and it brings a few interesting features to the table.

Go Ahead, Clear Those GServices Downloaded Files!​

Ah, a new feature has been introduced that the Google Services tool really needed for awhile now (in my opinion). The Toolbox is now capable of deleting downloaded files. Located in the Google Service's Tool Options panel (gear icon at the upper-right hand corner of the tool), you will now find two options: one that clears downloaded files for your tablet's android version, and one that clears ALL downloaded play services files. These two options will be so helpful in the event that a download fails and the files become corrupt.

Man, That Device Dashboard Icon is Annoying!​

Tired of seeing the Device Dashboard icon, but don't want to change around your navigation bar's layout? (I don't blame you) Well, I'm happy to say that it's now possible to hide the icon without making any futher changes to the navbar. Apparently, there's been a key in the Settings Database all this time that actually governs the visibility of the icon, and through a simple value change we can hide the icon! Easy peasy!

Let's Wrap This Up!​

Again, as always, I'd like to take the time to THANK YOU all from the bottom of my heart for being so awesome, so patient, and so kind towards each other and to me. Your support has been a net positive in my life from day one and I just want to thank you all for it! Of course, special shoutout goes out to those of you who have donated. I feel honored, and would like to ensure you that it has gone into the coffee (as promised) and has helped fuel development! THANK YOU all so much!

Well, that's all I've got for now guys! Please take care, and I'll see you guys on the flipside! Peace!
