Cardputer ADV UI is completely broken

[caturine1312]

I sadly don't even know where to begin, because the UI /UX are completely broken. The menu items aren't in the correct order and half of the keys are either not implemented or mixed up (example: up and down are switched and sometimes produce completely random outcomes).
Many menu items return a completely empty screen (example: volume, audio, schematics)
Battery icon nonexistent.
BLE Spam doesn't work at all for me
I bet some of the core wifi functions will be pretty okay like they were in the past, but navigation is so bad that I stopped my trial, until some of the major bugs are fixed. At the moment this feels like an early alpha.
I really thought at least the navigation issues would've been solved. Meh :(
No offense btw, Just tryna be honest.

yes, some of these issues we are aware of in the firmware and we will make sure to fix them with 0.9.5 in exactly one week from the 0.9 release so a week form yesterday, we understand these issues and will make sure to get them fixed, ble spam works on the devices with our devs testing, so ill have to troubleshoot with that, also the adv is current brand new to our firmware, and we will make sure these are fixed and improved with a few days to come we are sorry for the inconviennce, thanks for the feedback.

Hey there, thx for the reply and no need to be sorry. You don't owe anyone anything after all. :) I just wanted to point out the issues, since i would probably not use the firmware at it's current state. Looking forward to testing 9.5 though.
best regards

PS: Reread my text again and I sound more disappointed than I actually was. Sry for that. Thanks for providing a FOSF. :)

This still has faults with the new release, for me using CardPuter ADV. 0.9.5. Starting with CURR_TIME being displayed

• Theme: Down to select and Up to exit (Esc/Del/(OK/Ent/Rtn) do nothing)
• Brightness: L/R to adjust and (OK/Ent/Rtn) to exit as Esc and Del do nothing
• Passlock - no guidance and no safe exit and straight into setting a PIN. What is it protecting? Can it be reset?
• Audio: Blank menu, Up to exit
• Volume: Blank menu, Up to exit
• Time: Picking Local time and trying to select a WiFi for NTP the navigation is down to go up, up is exit.
• WiFi selection on Time: Navigating the keyboard should be an input box for the actual keyboard. On screen keyboard can use Left and Right, Up is exit! Also has no numbers.

At this point I've seen enough to know that no testing has occured before release which is a shame because the UI looks amazing and if Evil or Bruce features were mapped into this AND working, it would be a winner. Currently it is dangerous to use and should be marked BETA.

A side note: include the version number somewhere obvious like a welcome splash screen or in Settings > About.

Theme

OK so I can see you didn't do a lot of research on this which is fine. I mean we are a two person team and first the current time at the top is not a bug it's just not implemented. Also it is listed as a beta. That is why it has versions before one. That's usually what a beta means. Also, it's marked as beta and yes, we are aware that we haven't yet formatted all of the devices perfectly for the firmware. We also are trying to push our releases faster to help keep up with bug reports with our small team you know compared to another from where like Bruce with a 200 person team I would understand being upset at these small issues but with a team of three people working on this, then you know that's where you start to expect a little more error on our end. We're sorry you had this issue in. These will all be fixed in the con version one release

Also for the lock screen, it basically just locks down the device so no one else can get into it and view what's on it and or delete files and or access product keys which will be available eventually when we are from our to a better state also a lot of of the issues you listed just are not in the chain logs that are not yet supported. I understand that they should be marked as not supporting directly on the firmware, but that's something we didn't have due to our time crunch. Also, yes, we are adding a splash screen soon and a lot more support for the device. Our goal isn't to overtake Bruce or whatever in my eyes in a creative since we already have just not with how stable they are with the releases and what not we haven't overtaken them in that sense yet but our goal is to make a advice that people can learn with in use and have it actually been fully customizable almost like the Linux of penetration testing devices
