Fix/ws wait for displaying ack - #884
Conversation
Remove the 30s fallback timeout so long-running WebP apps are not skipped while the device is still animating. Legacy firmware without protocol_version still uses dwell-based timing. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Prevents WS rotation from stalling forever on v1+ firmware while still allowing long WebP animations to complete. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The change makes app rotation wait for device display acknowledgments, but protocol-mode selection can use stale or invalid version state, causing devices to follow the wrong wait behavior and advance or render at the wrong time.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Ensure acknowledgment mode uses synchronized, validated protocol state.
The wait-mode decision has two correctness issues:
wsWriteLoopuses a device snapshot captured before the read loop discovers and stores the device protocol version, so a newly connected v1 device can incorrectly use the legacy dwell timer until another broadcast refreshes the snapshot.- A non-nil
ProtocolVersionpointer is treated as v1+, although the protocol contract requiresprotocol_version >= 1; zero or negative values can therefore select the 600-second wait incorrectly.
Propagate protocol discovery to the write loop through synchronized state or refresh the device before selecting the timer, and require ProtocolVersion != nil && *ProtocolVersion >= 1 for the v1+ path.

fixes #883
Now we trust a device to send us the "displaying" message and we wait for it up to 10 minutes before advancing the app rotation and rendering/sending a new app.
