Workaround for delaying startup of HMI on WR panels

I've made a workaround for that the WR panels boots faster then the core.

Download this file. Edit the url and startup delay inside the file, then put this file in the download folder in the hmi using a USB stick.

Then change the url in the panel to the local html file:

content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/document/primary%3ADownload%2Fstartup.html

And now it should show this file for a while before redirecting to the core's hmi

A better solution now is to use this app:

Note that you want to activate this function, then it will automatically reload until the ctrlX web ui is avaiable:

Auto Reload after Page Error – automatic reload after x seconds on page load failure; on Android 5+ only DNS/connection errors will be caught, on Android 6+ also HTTP errors 40x/50x.
