My rule for everyday basis 0.2

I've followed this thread for a while but never seen anyone share their rules (I mean sharing the AiR rule file). Let's not waste the sharing feature of this great app and help those new comers.

I made these rules based on my everyday use basis. It may not suit your need but it's a good start. You are welcome to modify any content in it. Just be careful, some of them are chained rules and you must be aware of the chain reaction.

What are those rules inside?

Wifi turn-on based on your home location.

[new]Wifi auto turn-off if losing connection.

[new]Protential to reconnect to HOME wifi if you are in the location deternimed as "unknown".

A notification when connecting to a wifi signal outside your home

Auto switch-off wifi when public wifi disconnected

Airplane mode during night time (save battery), weekdays and weekends seperate settings (00:00-8:30 / 02:00-09:00)

Early termination for night mode if you use your phone near the end of nigh time (whenever after 07:00)

Auto-sync on/off on time basis for nearly every two hours (reduce data usage and save battery)

[new]Reduce screen timeout value during calls and restore after ending calls. (45 secs -> calls -> 10 secs -> end calls -> 45 secs)

Cope with HTC power saving mode (works with some HTC device, let power saver gets control on wifi. The corresponding rule also acts like a battery saver which will shut off your mobile data connection to save more battery. I will modify it in the future version so it will finally replace the power saver and has ability to fully adapt other non-HTC device readily. )

Some automations for charging mode (such as disable wifi control, enable mobile data, active sync...etc.).

Initial setup for boot time (In case of losing power and automateIt stucks in some state which cannot be activated propertly. It may be improved, I am trying to figure it out)

I have HTC Sensation and HTC Desire S. These rules work well on both phones. The only exception is the outgoing call trigger which sometimes fail to work. Muzikant has noted this problem and researched on the solution. If you do not own HTC smartphones, these rules shall still work for you, too.

If you need additional features, please research, experiment, and do it yourself. I do not take anyone's request. Besides, I take no responsibility if these settings damage your phone. Although I feel they are very safe to use, you must study app's manual before applying.

Installation Guide:

Download the attachment, unzip it to sdcard\automateIT\backup folder

Open automateIT, do the following: menu->more->Restore Rules-> choose shareRules_2011-10-17-20.31.30.AiR -> replace existing rules

Edit location trigger in the following rules:

They are currently set in nowhere of Atlantic ocean, you should use map to select your home.

Although I do not take anyone's request, I am welcome to everyone's comment to improve those rules based on the purpose I described in the feature section. And if you have made your own rules, don't be shy to share yours. We can all make this world work better together. :cool:
