CarDash 1.0.7 fixes the emulator crash when opening Settings.

• Package: com.wasp.cardash_launcher
• Version: 1.0.7 (versionCode 19)
• ABIs: arm64-v8a, armeabi-v7a, x86_64
• Signing: project debug key matching all prior releases
• SHA-256: 5b37116b38683ae5e9c42f36841ca509a417f21164902ffe0a93e7b5b29c61ae

Root cause

• The EnableImpeller=false opt-out was under <activity>. Flutter silently ignores that key there, so CarDash had actually been running Impeller.
• On the 1024×600 SwiftShader emulator, opening Settings killed the emulator process.
• 1.0.7 moves the key to <application>. The app now uses Skia as intended. The Flutter log reports the Impeller opt-out instead of “Using the Impeller rendering backend”.

Verified on the Android 14 / 1024×600 SwiftShader emulator

• Fresh install, open Settings: stays alive.
• Grant Bluetooth permission: stays alive.
• Bluetooth off → Open Bluetooth settings → enable Bluetooth → return to CarDash: stays alive.
• Tap Find and reopen the card: stays responsive.

Includes

• All 1.0.6 Bluetooth/OBD hardening: binder calls off the main thread, adapter filtering, bounded retries and the Retry connection action.

Download cardash-android-1.0.7.apk

The installed 1.0.6 app can use Settings → Updates to download this APK and open Android package installer. Android requires install confirmation and a one-time unknown-apps allowance; no silent install is attempted. A yellow dot appears on the Settings gear when this release is available.

This build is debug-signed for sideloading/testing, not Play Store distribution. Gogs release attachments are limited to 32 MB, so the 54 MB universal APK is linked directly from the repository.
