    0.11.0

    • CRT-style shut-off animation — when powering off, the current screen
      collapses towards the middle (squeezed to a line, then a dot) like an old CRT
      switching off, replacing the "Power Off" message. (Colour displays only.)

    • Fix: the muted "M" indicator in the status bar overlapped the GPS text
      when GPS was enabled. The header icon is removed; the muted state is shown by
      the flashing red LED alone.

    • SMS recipient from contacts — when composing a message, press GREEN in
      the recipient field to pick the destination from your private-call DMR
      contacts (or type a DMR ID manually and press DOWN to move to the text).
    • Contacts list shows everything — Menu → Contacts now lists all contact
      types together under the title "Contacts" instead of defaulting to the group
      filter; HASH still cycles the per-type filters (all / groups / private /
      all-call).

    • Pride theme — the status/header bar and the menu title bar are now painted
      in the top rainbow-stripe colour so they blend into the background instead of
      showing as white boxes.

    0.8.0

    • Three new theme presets (Display Options → "Theme"): Red (black-on-red
      day / red-on-black night); Neon 80s, an 80s-synthwave palette that maps
      several neon colours (cyan, magenta, violet, green, yellow) across the
      individual UI elements over a dark background; and Pride, which paints the
      background as a rainbow pride flag with black text and white menu/header boxes
      kept readable over the stripes.
    • Build: each build now prints a per-region memory-usage summary
      (FLASH / RAM / CCMRAM used, size and free) so the remaining headroom is
      visible after every build.

    • Fix: the radio crashed when navigating the Messages menu with voice
      prompts enabled. Menu strings added after the voice-prompt pack was built map
      to a table-of-contents slot that doesn't exist; the player read past the end
      of the table. Such strings now play silence instead (also hardens the
      pre-existing strings sitting at the end of the table).

    0.7.0

    • DMR text messages (SMS) — full ETSI/Motorola-TMS-compatible messaging:
      compose on the keypad (multi-tap, up to 160 characters), inbox and sent box
      (8 messages each, persisted to flash across power cycles), 10 editable
      quick-text templates, an incoming-message popup with chime and one-key
      reply, and delivery confirmation (waits for the ETSI response PDU / ACK
      with a resend prompt on timeout). Transmits in the Motorola TMS format
      (UDP port 4007) understood by BrandMeister, hotspots and most OEM radios;
      receives both TMS and the Anytone/"DMR standard" format (port 5016) and
      answers delivery-report requests from other radios. Reachable from the
      main menu ("Messages") or a long-press on GREEN in channel/VFO mode.
      Options: "Wait for ACK" and "My ID only" (accept only messages addressed
      to your own DMR ID). Voice PTT is locked out while a message transmits,
      and hotspot mode is unaffected.
    • Removed the main-menu icons — the top-level menu entries are plain text again.

    0.6.0

    • Theme presets — selectable on the radio in Display Options → "Theme":
      Custom (CPS-editable, default), BASIC 80s (Commodore 64 blue/light-blue),
      Terminal (green-on-black night / black-on-green day), and Vertexic
      (orange, black-on-orange day / orange-on-black night). The choice is stored
      in the codeplug custom-data area (migration-safe; defaults to Custom), and CPS
      theme edits only ever change Custom.
    • Fix: green LED flickering between the red flashes while muted during a DMR
      QSO. The DMR RX handler re-asserts the green LED as soon as it reads it off, racing
      the main-loop mute clear; the green LED is now held off at the driver for the
      whole mute (and released on un-mute), so only the red flash shows.
    • screenshot.sh — a one-command wrapper around the OpenGD77 screen grabber
      that auto-detects the serial port and sets up a self-contained Python venv
      (pyserial + pillow) on first run. Saves to screenshots/.

    0.5.0

    • Fix: un-muting during an active QSO left the LED off instead of returning
      to green. On un-mute the green RX LED is now restored from the current receive
      state (active DMR slot or FM/digital signal), so an in-progress call lights green
      again.
    • MANUAL.md — a user-facing feature & usage guide covering both inherited
      OpenGD77 features and FreeTRX additions, each tagged 🟢 [FreeTRX] or
      [OpenGD77]. Includes the spectrum scope (VFO sweep, hold #), channel add/delete,
      mute, dimming, and a button reference.
    • Documentation website (website/) — MkDocs Material config that renders the
      markdown into a static, searchable HTML site (client-side search, dark/light
      theme). Built in Docker via ./website/build-docs.sh; the public URL is set with
      SITE_URL=…. For self-hosting on Forgejo.

    0.4.0

    • On-radio channel add/delete. The Channel quick menu (top button) has two new
      entries:
      • new channel — creates a blank 145.500 MHz FM channel in the first free
        slot, adds it to the current zone, and opens Channel Details to edit it. The
        zone is reloaded so the channel is immediately navigable.
      • Delete Channel — deletes the selected channel after a confirmation, and
        scrubs it out of every zone that referenced it. Refuses to delete the last
        remaining channel, and respects the read-only/APRS channel lock.
      • The new menu strings are translated (German, French, Italian, Spanish,
        Portuguese, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, Catalan, Finnish, Czech; English fallback
        for the rest).
    • flash.sh now always rebuilds the language (.gla) packs, so edits to the
      language files are picked up instead of a stale pack being re-flashed.
    • Release script now flags every release before v1.0.0 as a pre-release
      (and corrects the flag on re-runs).
