Thank you +lots

PS I'm not gay. My boyfriend is though.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Pleasure :)

LIAR!

LIAR!
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
:confused:

You mean he's not gay or I am? :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Erm, both! :confused:

The Tasker beta has been updated, but on initial install plugins don't work, so probably best to hold off on installing it for a while! :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Thank you for that nugget.

EDIT: I'm going for a job interview now, catch you later.
[Android Apps and Games] bgx:
After a lot frickering around with saved states, nandroid and a lot install updating freezing, force closing ... currently my tasker works again and installing plugins works fine again. Thank god!!! ....

But don't ask me to the way there... don't can reprodunce it ... :(
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Good luck!
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
I'm think I'm going to just revert for now!!
[Android Apps and Games] mynameisjon:
hey brandall, I'm guessing it's the wrong file. I never knew there was a V12.. I'll let you know if error pops up again.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Fingers crossed!

TASKER BETA UPDATED TO 1.1b16 FOLKS
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] mynameisjon:
so far so good!

2 questions:

1. Do I actually need the reboot profile? I don't normally keep my phone on for more than 24hrs.

2. Is updating to the latest Tasker beta required for DSD to work?
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
No - as long as the device is rebooted before 24 hours is up, there will be no issue with the data

Nope! It will just be more stable and perhaps stop some bugs that a few people are having.

How did it go?
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Pretty good I think. I only farted twice but don't think they noticed. They didn't open a window and did ask me to come back next week for a 'chat'.

On a relevant note, is anyone else having issues with the latest beta (16 not 15)? I'm having terrible trouble with it. All kinds of errors.

Sounds like it's in the bag!

Stable as all of my ex-girlfriends are in their new relationships for me....
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
THANKS +1 !

Ok, attached is the version for you - you'll need to import and then edit the 'perform task' actions in DSDDispOn & DSDDispOff

I would suggest the same as above - delete the files, variable clear %DSBOOT - drag the variable set %DSBOOT action in shutdown to below the stop (and then back after reboot) - After the data failure report on boot, I really hope that will be it!! :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Thanks. I've run out of thanks button presses also now.

He responded on this page to say that he would take a look. He is a decent spud!

Damn damn damn however. I have removed the profiles and tasks for this from my phone (as it is killing the battery presently).

I will restore V3.0, the DSDAdhoc.tsk.xml and DSDAhMaths.tsk, along with your new DSDDO-SGSII.tsk.xml (instead of the original version).

I will reset SU permissions as before, just one question, do you suggest that I should change any of the variables etc again?
[Android Apps and Games] pulser_g2:
Yep, I'm here...

I haven't a clue what this is all doing, though I get the basic idea.

I presume you are trying to use tasker to somehow (I don't know much about tasker at all) read in the uptime (time turned on), and the time in states.

Then sum the time in states (that's all the time it's not been in sleep), and subtract from the uptime, thus indicating time in sleep?

I got a bit lost I think, as I don't see the need for sleep time indication...

Have you checked if the toolbox binary from the other phone (desire) works on the SGS2? Perhaps toolbox was changed? If you put toolbox into /system/bin or xbin (wherever it is just now), but name it desiretoolbox, you could then try

desiretoolbox uptime (as in "toolbox uptime" which is the same as running uptime)

That any help?
[Android Apps and Games] nightranger73:
I have read most of the thread but skipped something so you may have already tried it but what about reading /proc/uptime?

This should give you time in secs

Sent from my GT-I9100

If you find this post usefull please press the "Thanks" button
[Android Apps and Games] pulser_g2:
I just had an idea... If you know where you want this message to be triggered (go look in the android source for 2.3 and let me know), I can likely try to show a logcat message when entering deep sleep. That any use?
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Thanks! If you don't have any triggers for variables in your own set up, then you can just do a variable clear with no text entered.... Good luck!
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Thank you Pulser, good to see you also nightranger!

EDIT: Things are not cool now. In my latest test, nothing is being wirtten apart from when I test the DSDSuperUser task with the setup I mentioned above.

I get DS Data Failure notifications on reboot.

I have to go out for 30 minutes or so now.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Doh! Are you getting pop-up errors in Tasker?

Thanks Pulser, you understood correctly! The location in the desire is /system/xbin/ - would having them in bin or xbin be the cause for the differing output? My output of 'uptime' in the terminal is:

up time: 00:00:00, idle time: 00:00:00, [B]sleep time: 00:00:00[/B]

obviously with numbers in though...

The sleep-time value saves me the maths on the time-in-state conversions.

I changed the location of my busybox to /system/bin - but I still get the above output - not sure if that should have made any difference...? Not exactly sure how to extract my current binary though....

That would be just what I'm after! If there is a trigger just before then job done... I'll have a trawl through.

Note: I would actually press the thanks button - but nobnut has had my 24 hour quota already!!

Hi nightranger, this gives me two outputs - one I assume is uptime and the other idle time - missing the all important sleep-time though....

It must be given in the output of another command somewhere... one that is universal to all devices...?

Thanks for all of your input guys, it's appreciated :)
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Yes, but none that actually contained any meangful data.

I am back at my desk now and am going to do it again... from scratch. I had a weird issue with SU permissions before. I entered my usual 9 and then rebooted. Upon reboot i was presented with another, which I accepted. I thought this was strange so checked in SU and saw that onl 4 had been granted.

I stopped to check my sanity and figured I was still (just) sane and then kept on 'testing' DSDSuperUser until the caows came home. Maybe that was an issue before.

Anyway, I will start over.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Hmm.... strange.... I've also just realised that the Adhoc task is fetching data from the 'uptime' command - so that will be corrupting the data now - so please don't use until I post a fix!!! Doh!

I'm going to post some nice figures for you to paste into the boot file so you can start with everything playing nicely...
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Bloomin' marvellous :)
[Android Apps and Games] pulser_g2:
xbin and bin are both in $PATH so can be used fine either way. Just don't have conflicting stuff with same name in both.

Location of the binary won't change anything. If the binary on the desire is not just a symlink (most are symlinked to toolbox), you could just copy the binary and make it executable.

or try as I suggested with the toolbox from the desire, called desiretoolbox, and run "desiretoolbox uptime".
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Thanks - I'll investigate now.

I may be a while... managed to give myself bootloops messing with the busybox installer - Doh! It's one of those days today.

Nandroid time :o
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Right, my phone is not happy at the moment, so working just from my brain right now, which is never a good plan....

If you paste that into your shutdown file please:

08.00
2000
10000
6-29-11
15000

Untick the shutdown task so it doesn't apply (you'll have to exit tasker). Variable clear everything and then variable set %DSBOOT to 1 and reboot...

Don't use the adhoc task just yet and I hope things should start to work for you...

I'm stuck in bootloops as my nandroid is corrupt.... Damn it!
[Android Apps and Games] pulser_g2:
I believe I have modified the framework on VillainROM 1.4 to issue a logcat message when a wakelock is acquired. I don't know if this is of any use...

I am now looking to find out where sleep is actually entered from, so we can logcat there as well :) If I use a known message, then you can likely obtain it from the modified framework

EDIT: I think I have now added a message to show when going to sleep too... :)
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Sorry to hear about your Nandroid woes. A spare 'developer' phone would've come in handy eh? Umm maybe a Nexus S ;) (Sorry, couldn't resist)

OK. I will do an ultra-fresh re-test (with a fresh install) and follow your instructions above.

Thank you again.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Fantastic pulser! If I could hit the thanks meter I would do! I'd be interested to know what the modification to the framework was please. Not having an SGSII puts me at a disadvantage right now! I may have to reconsider my pending upgrade...

Just seen your edit - I'm glad nobnut sent you this way :)
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Haha!! If it doesn't stop looping soon, I might be sending you a PM!!! ;)

Thank you...
[Android Apps and Games] pulser_g2:
Yeah I need to test it first though... All it will show is:

"D/VillainPower/Going to Sleep" or something like that...

Time to test methinks :)
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Thank you! And my thanks meter did work that time....? Fingers crossed...

Edit: Could you also get a signal when "D/VillainPower/IS TRYING to go to Sleep" and then output the wakelocks?

Does it see wakelocks and not try - or the other way around and try and sleep but then 'see' wakelocks??

Nobnut.... I've made a mistake :o

I knew I shouldn't have trusted my brain... ^ that is how the shutdown file should look...

Thanks. I'll wipe it and do a fresh install.

Hi, all.

I just tried out DSD, but have a problem with it. When a Detective Alert is showing up in the notifucation area where it says click to show report, nothing happens on clicking it. Can someone point me to what might be wrong?
[Android Apps and Games] mrvirginia:
hey guys, does anyone know how to remove the following process?

GTALK_ASYNC_CONN

it has a wakelock despite removing/freezing Gtalk. my first thought is that it's part of the google framework. can anyone confirm? i've tried searching for info regarding it but have only come up with others reporting it as a wakelock. no info on what keeps it active or how to get rid of it. thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
I've had a quick search for you and there are a few other users reporting it, all with the dreaded SGSII which seems to have lots of issues... Unfortunately I drew a blank too to where it originates... I'll have another search tomorrow and see what I can come up with for you. In the mean time you may want to have a look at the effect of changing your syncing times (if you have any) for any accounts you have under accounts and sync or separate email accounts - also, try it with 3g then wifi and see if a combination of them sees the wake lock drop.

Unfortunately Tasker doesn't handle the notification recognition very intelligently - sometimes it will work, other times it won't and it's out of my hands... The boot report and detective report are both in the DSD folder on the storage card to view if the click fails to display them...

HIJACKER!! Looks pretty good Strictly :) I don't use CM, but if I ever do, I'll be sure to use this too!
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Here you go captain! As promised... :eek:

Hope it works for you, sorry for the delay..
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:

I see tasker has just had a Market update to V1.1.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Yup, it's gone to the masses...

Since running 1.1 I'm getting a negative result and an error log every time... I'm surprised no one else is reporting this...?

Perhaps it's just my device, but it's really puzzling me?! :eek:

Doh!

I've got crabs. I'm blaming it on 1.1 but I'm not sure.

LOL! I wish I could blame 1.1 for those... Can't, fault lies entirely with my Nan.

I'm investigating.. Are you on 2.3.5 yet? Are you running SuperUser Elite or normal?

Questions questions...
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
I'm rocking Superuser silvertop, the goldtop plays havoc with my piles. It keeps defaulting back to normal.

[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
Hi, have you:

- installed the Beta version of Tasker suggested in the instructions on the first page?

- allowed administrator and accessibilty for Tasker in the phones settings?

- installed the Locale Execute Plugin from the Market? (I assume you have as you get the Superuser prompts)
[Android Apps and Games] kly91:
Yes sir..i have locale execute plugin, then unstalled the tasker v1.1 validated..not really the beta as provided in the post because it keeps on saying my trial has expired..i have set and allowed tasker in my admin settings..

Edit..really weird but i tried again with the beta version and it works..how come it doesn't work with the validated one..
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
That is a little odd as I thought they were the same versions now the beta has made general release? Perhaps just the act of uninstalling and reinstalling fixed a glitch in the matrix.....

I've deleted the youporn browser favourite from Dolphin - this will no longer be required....

Thank you for this! I can't even begin to imagine the hours of frustration that must've gone into making this! I got my dirty, crumbled up dollar ready for when you make that app ;)

I'm sure this has probably already been answered, and I swear I'm planning on reading all 802 posts before me, but what's a good percentage? I'm getting 80 - 90% thus far. That's good, right? I'd imagine 100% is an unrealistic goal.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Hi jesusice - yeah, 80-90 is pretty good, but certainly room for improvement if this is nearing 24 hours of running... In the release in 2 versions time, I'll have a report that will tell you in seconds which processes having been keeping the device awake (I hope!)

Pre-release V13 - HELP NEEDED PLEASE!

I've been working on a much improved V13 for a while now, but unfortunately it doesn't work as expected on my new Sensation... :mad:

If anyone is around to test, can you confirm if you have the following files please:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state

Please let me know your device, ROM and Kernel.

Thanks in advance
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
I thought you'd never ask!

I've only got three devices with me right now but:

1/ Samsung Galaxy SII 2.3.4 [my own variant of XWKI4][Kernel] - I have the cpu0 file but not the cpu1 file

2/ HTC Flyer (Honeycomb 3.2) [Kernel] (there is only the bundled kernel)- I have the cpu0 file but not the cpu1 fle (as above)

3/ Casio G-Shock watch [Kernel] - the best I can offer is the next high tide time in Honolulu (3.47 am local time)

Good to see you around again.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
LOL!!! That made me chuckle..... a lot...

Thanks Nobnut, appreciated as always... When you have a mo, does the SGSII have a /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/ folder at all?

Still chuckling.... :D

EDIT: Still chuckling...

Weird...

It has the cpu1 folder with the following contents:

EDIT: Stuff it... I've just zipped the bugger up (the cpu1 folder). I'm uploading now.

Cheers Nobnut, looks like DSD needs to be altered for my Sensation... stupid choice of phone by me...

Chit.

Ha! I forgot to give Satan a mention in the credits.... Oops.

Could you do the same as above and email me the data collected after a bit of running time please...

Also, did the readme file personalise with your xda username on setup??
[Android Apps and Games] nobnut:
I will email the data tomorrow as I have just flashed another ROM and have to go out very soon. I will need to re-setup DSD.

As for the Readme file... Oops... I didn't have a file/text reader app installed when I installed it and therefore was given the option to open it using my calendar/Youtube/Android Market and something else that I can't remember. I just passed on the invitation to read the Readme therefore. I did go into Market and install one but immediately forgot to view the damned thing before I flashed a new ROM.

I don't have a Nandroid as I now firmly believe that backups are for wimps. I also didn't backup my Tasker settings etc. This was not down to some philosophical precept... but because I am an arse.

I'll do it again tomorrow morning when I'm back in the office and email you that puppy over.
