Android soft-keyboard: fix dark-theme white flash on resize (#7839)
* test(e2e): raise timeouts for two CI-flaky waits

Both timeouts repeatedly hit their limit on saturated scheduled runners
without indicating a real product regression:

- supersync.page.ts:781 — final sync-state icon waitFor went 10s → 30s.
  The race above it already consumed a 30s budget, so falling back to
  10s here is too tight when the runner is hot (e.g. SuperSync 5/6 in
  run 26514574130, "Client A can migrate multiple times" failure).
- repeat-task-day-change #6230 — post-midnight visibility went 30s → 60s.
  Even with the focus-event fallback added in 46ac873570, the 1s tick
  + debounce + sync chain can still exceed 30s under contention.

* fix(android): keep foreground services alive across task removal

The focus-mode and tracking foreground services overrode onTaskRemoved
to stop themselves when the app was swiped from recents, which defeats
the purpose of running them as foreground services. Remove the
overrides so the native countdown continues ticking and the notification
persists after task removal.

Refs #7818, #4513

* fix(theme): stabilize Android keyboard-height tracking

Per-event commits during the Android IME open animation sampled
partial keyboard amounts from `window.innerHeight - visualViewport.height`
(layout-viewport adjustResize and visual-viewport resize fire at slightly
different times), parking the global add-task bar mid-page. Debounce the
open path 200ms so only the final value lands; commit synchronously when
the value falls back to zero so the bar drops the moment the IME is gone.

* fix(theme): prevent white flash on Android keyboard resize

The Android WebView surface defaulted to white, so adjustResize keyboard
animations briefly exposed it before the page repainted at the new size —
jarring in dark theme. Paint the surface in the theme background: a
values/values-night color resource provides the cold-start default, and a
new NavigationBar.setWebViewBackgroundColor push keeps it in sync on live
theme switches (the activity is not recreated since uiMode is in
configChanges).

Also promote the full-viewport gradient backdrop to its own compositor
layer as a first-pass mitigation for resize choppiness, pending deeper work.

Not yet verified on-device.

* docs(android): plan to smooth soft-keyboard resize jank

Research + multi-reviewed plan for the remaining keyboard-resize choppiness
(the white-flash half is already fixed in 80b08f0e96). Root cause: adjustResize
resizes the WebView window per frame (WebView is excluded from Chrome 108's
visual-viewport fix). Recommends a KISS core — flip only CapacitorMainActivity
to adjustNothing + reuse the existing visualViewport/--keyboard-height model and
scroll-into-view — gated behind a baseline trace, with VirtualKeyboard API and
CSS containment kept as contingencies behind proven need.

* perf(theme): dedupe Android keyboard-visibility emissions

The native OnGlobalLayoutListener pushes isKeyboardShown$ on every layout pass
(every frame of the IME slide), so the subscriber rewrote <body> classes and
re-triggered change detection each frame. distinctUntilChanged collapses it to
actual show/hide transitions.

* docs(android): correct keyboard-resize plan for min-Chrome-107

Implementation review found MIN_CHROMIUM_VERSION=107, but WebView only
auto-resizes the visual viewport for the IME at ~Chrome 139. So a static
adjustNothing flip would leave Chrome 107-138 with no keyboard-height signal
(inputs silently covered). Corrected the plan: VirtualKeyboard API is required
(not optional), the switch must be runtime-gated via a native setSoftInputMode
method keeping adjustResize as the fallback, and the cheap containment route is
now Phase 1 (try first) with the bigger flip as Phase 2. distinctUntilChanged
win shipped (f486496b7b).

* style(theme): drop no-op keyboard backdrop compositing

The will-change/backface-visibility on body::before was added to reduce
keyboard-resize choppiness, but review showed it's a no-op: the backdrop
resizes every frame so it re-rasterizes regardless of layer promotion, while
the hint allocates an always-on compositor layer on every platform. The
white-flash fix (WebView background color) is unaffected.

♥️ Contributing

If you want to get involved, please check out the CONTRIBUTING.md

There are several ways to help.

  1. Spread the word: More users mean more people testing and contributing to the app which in turn means better stability and possibly more and better features. You can vote for Super Productivity on Slant, Product Hunt, Softpedia or on AlternativeTo, you can tweet about it, share it on LinkedIn, reddit or any of your favorite social media platforms. Every little bit helps!

  2. Provide a Pull Request: Here is a list of the most popular community requests and here some info on how to run the development build (wiki). Please make sure that you're following the commit message format and to also include the issue number in your commit message, if you're fixing a particular issue (e.g.: feat: add nice feature #31).

  3. Answer questions: You know the answer to another user's problem? Share your knowledge!

Documentation: Manual versus Automated

There are two wikis: the official one hosted in by GitHub autonomously generated variant using DeepWiki.com. The manually curated version is a more stable and approachable resource designed to help you understand the app from a more human-focused perspective whereas DeepWiki is optimized for explaining the code itself with little regard for context beyond that.

Official Wiki

It is preferable to maintain local documentation rather than rely on an external service. It also preferable that the documentation is updated in tandem with the code changes as demonstrated in this commit.

Changes to files within ./docs/wiki are linted in CI before being automatically sync'd to the repository's official Wiki hosted by GitHub.

Migrating to Docusaurus is a long-term goal once the content and structure of the wiki has matured and the remaining "legacy docs" have either been reworked or removed. There are some automations in development to help reduce the difference between the published docs and the state of the code while retaining a human-in-the-loop.

DeepWiki.com

If you have very specific questions about how the code works or why a bug might be producing a particular message it might be useful to Ask DeepWiki . It can help "cite your sources" when discussing functionality and code that you don't fully understand as part of feature requests or bug reports.

This automated reference does come with some significant drawbacks:

  1. Intent: Describes what code does, not why decisions or tradeoffs were made.
  2. Staleness: Will *always* lag behind the code.
  3. Code-Focused: Does not provide guides or conceptual explanations.
  4. Cost: Potential future cost and higher resource usage than static docs.
