The original author isn't very active anymore. I can update the app for the new screen resolution of Toon 2, but don't have Sonos kit myself, so cannot do proper functional testing.

Maybe try it yourself :) It is not that hard. And as Toonz said you need someone with sonos gear to test all functions.

Super quick first hint.
The screen resolution of Toon 2 is 1024 x 800, Toon 1 is 800 x 600.

meaning that you have to multiply the x-coordinates of screen elements by 1,28 for Toon 2, y coordinate by 1,33 and font sizes by 1,3 ( roughly).
Either by using the Match formula or calculate the new coordinates yourself (I often use 1,25 easy to calculate by brain :-) )
Also replace all absolute values a formule to get correct display on both Toon 1 and Toon 2 by querying the isNxt (=Toon 2) variable.
Do this for all screen element positioning and sizing attributes in the qml files in the Sonos folder in qml/qmf/app/sonos

Example from MediaScreen.qml:

Code: Select all

		id: zoneContainer
		anchors {
			top: labelContainer.bottom
			topMargin: 30
			left: parent.left
			leftMargin: 44
			right: parent.right
			rightMargin: 27
		}
		spacing: 20
should become

Code: Select all

		id: zoneContainer
		anchors {
			top: labelContainer.bottom
			topMargin: isNxt ? 38 : 30
			left: parent.left
			leftMargin: isNxt ? 55 : 44
			right: parent.right
			rightMargin: isNxt ? 34 : 27
		}
		spacing: isNxt ? 25 : 20
Do this for all screen elements in the qml files in the Sonos folder.
When you are happy with the result, send me the sonos folder in a zipfile so I can publish it in ToonStore.

Hi, i'm new here and have a quick question. I'm planning to root my Toon.

I would like to use it to control my Sonos system (and adjust temperature with smartphone).

After it is rooted, can i take the app from the Store by the wifi connection or do i need to connect it to my pc each time i want to add an app/update it to a new version? Wondering it, cause i need to know if i need to order the usb-to-serial-cable. If i need to have this for future use, i could try to root it myself. If not needed anymore then i will probably have someone to root it for me.

After rooting, the app on Toon communicates directly with the SONOS system via Wifi.
App updates will come via the ToonStore on Toon.

No need for the rooting kit after rooting

This app is no longer improved/developed.
Maker of this app sold this Toon and stopped developing.

Like Terrorsource said, creator has stopped making this app..
I just want to see if I can build it in for you this weekend, but I don't have any sonos, I can't test it.

If you like to do it would appreciate it and i can test it.
Hopefully a lot of other users can also benefit from that feature.
