Sorry man. It's just complicated and didn't want to bother you with simple and annoying questions. So I tried to find simpler way.

Sorry again...
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
If there was a simpler way, I would have posted it. :confused:

I was just trying to get this quote.

You have been entering commands into a root shell in Tasker, and this is just as easy.

Open a terminal emulator, enter su to get root and the # prompt, then enter this command:

and press enter. That should allow you to get the System+ to enable root.
[Android Apps and Games] hopelives:
Thanks. I tried it and attached the terminal screenshot. However when I opened secure settings it doesn't request root permission and system + still warns that no root access.
[Android Apps and Games] Arstoien:
Read carefully what I linked. The answers are there.

[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
Well, I'm at a loss. This has gotten apps that have hard coded paths for su to work. Unfortunately, Secure Settings has not been updated due to life changes for the dev. For me, 95% of the options work, including the GPS that you are having trouble.

What phone, ROM, android version, SuperSU version, and it is installed System or Systemless?
[Android Apps and Games] hopelives:
To flash the supersu, I put it in phone memory and instal it through recovery mode? Is this right? I use stock MM rom.

---------- Post added at 08:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:17 AM ----------

Note 4 n910c Exynos runnimg Android 6.0.1 stock ROM. SuperSU version is 2.71 but not sure it is systemless or not. It's not I guess.
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
If you look at the SuperSU app it will tell you.
[Android Apps and Games] hopelives:
I installed TWRP recovery but couldn't find flashable SuperSU 2.71 Pro. It seems that latest stable SuperSU version is 2.65. Can I use it instead?

Edit: I found SuperSU 2.71 flashable zip but when I tried to flash it through recovery there was a problem. I tried "update from SD card" but error message said "update from storage disabled".
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
Yes, of course you can use the Stable version. All the SuperSU versions are basic and the Pro feature is a license app you buy in the Play Store.

Here is the 2.71 link.

https://download.chainfire.eu/932/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip

So you have not had SuperSU installed through all this trying to get Tasker and Secure Settings to use root?
[Android Apps and Games] hopelives:
No it's installed. Chainfire says reflash it after executing that command on terminal, right?

I edited my entry above by the way.
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
Yes, so you did not do that yet?

How is what you have installed? System or Systemless?
[Android Apps and Games] hopelives:
This SuperSU has come with CF-Autoroot. So, how could I know it is sytemless or not?

I think my English is not good enough to explain problems or get the answers.

I already have SuperSU 2.71 but to activate compatibility mode I opened terminal and first wrote "su" and get root permission then I execute the command

Then I opened secure settings but no request for root permission (also system+ module) After that I installed TWRP recovery through it's manager and when I tried to flash it through recovery there was a problem. I tried "update from SD card" but error message said "update from storage disabled".
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
Open SuperSU, go to "Settings", scroll down to "System" and what does it say below that?

I think this is a Samsung permissions with SuperSU and that is beyond me. You should be able to get help in the SuperSU thread. You might try flashing SuperSU 2.65 in recovery and see if it works. If not, save the recovery.log in TWRP to post later.
[Android Apps and Games] hopelives:
In SuperSU system part it says "install SuperSU to /system" and below that "unavaible because no system app"
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
It is installed systemless then. Try flashing 2.65 in recovery. It will remove systemless 2.71 and should install to /system.

Did you ever get a work around for this issue? I also use Waze and secure settings. I downloaded the GPS project and added all of my apps that I want to turn GPS on and of when using. I did not realize the GPS goes off in the foreground.

I originally created a task shortcut to open Waze and GPS together I will do this again and see if GPS states on when Waze is in the background. I'm new to actually using tasked 2nd day. I need to learn how to add a task to turn off GPS and create a project or profile which may work. I thought I saw in secure settings the pro version will work in background.

Thank you for any and all responses.
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
In the App Selection screen, check Services as well as App at the bottom left to keep them active when those Apps are running.
[Android Apps and Games] spicediablo:
No, even until now. I have to manually switch the gps from power saving to high accuracy when i turn on Waze. I suspect something is wrong with secure settings and not tasker...
[Android Apps and Games] Droidatar:
I got a profile to work! I can export and send to you...I think

I found a site that had a profile to download. I did a d it did not work but I had a bad so I made some tweaks and its working. I still need to change the text flash GPS enabled when it shuts down but it stays on even when I switch to my music player to get it going and come back.

Edit: I have tried to export to SD card. It says it did but I cant find it.

Sorry I just notices your trying to switch to high accuracy. I only use GPS. Is there a reason you use high instead?
[Android Apps and Games] spicediablo:
My idea is to switch to high accuracy only when I have a gps app running. Otherwise, I'd like to keep it in battery saving mode.

Sent from Oneplus²
[Android Apps and Games] Droidatar:
My profile takes it to GPS the back to the previous setting. Let me check.

I can't find anywhere is settings to specify where to export profile.

EDIT: yes, I put in power saving location setting. When I turned on Waze it took me to GPS normal, I turned off Waze it went back to location power saving mode.

I would like to give credit to ALMOST A TECHNOCRAT website.

He developed the base I jumped from. It didn't work for me as written. You can download the profile from his site. I just changed the gps settings to use secure settings.

Can anyone tell me if the enable/disable SIP calls feature works.

I'm on a Galaxy S4, root is Privacy Guard, OS is Cyangenmod 13, Xposed V84, using latest Privacy Guard and Taksker.

I have a task set to disable SIP calls on wifi connect. Tasker successfully toggles the SIP switch, but the setting does not register. I have to manually toggle the setting to register.

I have the plugin set as an Administrator, enabled in Xposed, and enabled System+, and Privacy Guard granted permissions to the plugin.

I'm at a loss whether the feature is not working or I have some permission not set properly.

Thanks for any help.
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
Yes, on a Nexus 6 using voip.ms service. I have no firewall or privacy apps, Xposed or otherwise that I need to set permissions. I get massive Xposed Log errors with Secure Settings enabled in Xposed, so it is left unchecked there. All other SS actions work for me, I use quite a few in many profiles.
[Android Apps and Games] snej81:
This is very easy to do with another Tasker plugin, Autoinput. Doesn´t even require root.

I use it to switch from ``Balanced´´ -> High accuracy when opening Maps, and I have also made an exit task that returns to ``Balanced´´ settings when Maps is closed.

[Android Apps and Games] snej81:
Well a couple of hours later... Now Im finally rooted and got to play with Secure Settings. I have read a lot about the issues with this app and the fact that it`s not updated since early 2015 and because of that the functionality is poor. And that it doesnt work with systemless root, like CF-Autoroot that I am running..

However I found a solution that is posted before in this thread to use an shell command, but THIS LINK includes a terminal emulator that made it very easy, no need for a PC. Worked like a charm :good:

I got GPS ON-OFF Balanced/High accuracy working (even better than through Autoinput).

I got NFC ON-OFF working.

I got Airplane mode On-OFF working.

I did not got Mobile data working.. Everytime task is running i get an Error message from Secure Settings (I also have this via Autoinput though, working very good BUT it´s only Toggle, ON-OFF is not possible via Autoinput).

Hello y'all,

Could someone give me a hand with this?

I've got secure settings in tasker to copy files from one folder (/data/app) to another (as root) . After that i want to get an sound notification. But tasker will just run the secure task and then instantly the sound notification will run (even when the previous task isn't ready yet)

How do i change this? I understand i have to pass a variable in some way i just can't get it right...

help!

ps: is there a tutorial somewhere?

And the su beta is available? I really want to use PM ;)
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
I might have misspoke. The changes needed are in the public github repo for superuser. Unfortunately, there is no real beta at this time. I compiled my own su binary from source and have been using that.

However, the ChainFire SuperSU app on the market will replace your su binary with a version that works as well.

still confirmatin needed

Hi,

thank you very much for this helpful tool!

Active GPS works good, but it will still aks me for confirmation.

Is there a possibility to pass this confirmation?

thanks for your help.

:-)
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
I'm not sure what confirmation you're referencing. Could you take a screen shot and email it to me?

The only option that's has a confirmation is the 'Location Services'. Is that what you mean?
[Android Apps and Games] sudkcoce:
Are you using cool droid rom? Its a Verizon thing... even if you manually toggle via settings, it asks,...
[Android Apps and Games] technogravy:
Thanks.. I can confirm that using the SuperSU app brings the Package Manager back in ICS..

Still looking forward to the update though..
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
If you want to keep using the other superuser app, you can use my compiled version of the su binary. I have it hosted here: http://bit.ly/Ae3umR.

Disclaimer: Don't do this if you are unfamiliar with the command line! I am not responsible if you lose root or something breaks.

To install it, open up a command line then do the following:

Download the file to your SD card

su to get to a root prompt

Mount /system read/write

Copy the new file contents into the current su binary. This is wherever the download is and wherever your su binary is currently.

"cat /sdcard/su-binary > /system/xbin/su"

Then reset permissions just in case:

"chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su"

Mount read only

Let me know if you have any questions.

Backup to time capsule

Is there anyway to do a nightly backup using tasker to my sUSB hard drive connected to my Apple Time Capsule? I have rsync installed and running and that backs up my phone to my macbook pro but the problem is that the macbook pro isn't always running at night.

It would be awesome if I could just have it backup my sdcard via rsync or similar everynight to time capsule.
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
If you can setup the time capsule as an rsync server, then I don't see why not. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with that product. Do you know if it's possible?
[Android Apps and Games] dipole:
I don't think it's possible to setup a rsync server, at least that's what google is telling me
[Android Apps and Games] hydroxyde:
This app (well, the secure helper, I guess) seems to take on a life of its own.

I was using this at first in Tasker to enable and disable the lock screen when I was at home.

I decided that I didn't like that and disabled those events in Tasker. My lock screen would still enable/disable when I was at home, so I disabled those actions in Secure Settings, deleted Tasker and went back to Llama. All was fine.

In Llama, I decided I would use it to change keyboard layouts. I also devided that I didn't like this and disabled the keyboard changing events in Llama. They continued to change even when Llama was disabled.

Is Secure Settings or the helper plugin caching actions? Does it take a while for them to realise they shouldn't be triggered any more? I've uninstalled both the helper and Secure Settings now due to these issues. It's not very nice to have it keep changing things even after it's been told not to.
[Android Apps and Games] tayandroid:
thanks, guy

It's help me alot

...still consider to donate
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
That is bizarre behavior and I have never heard of that happening before. Secure settings doesn't store any command or anything besides preferences. It is up to Llama or Tasker, etc to send the request. Without that request, Secure Settings will do nothing. Additionally, all of the requests that are made are processed at the time they are received. As soon as it receives a request, it executes and finishes.

I feel like there might be something else going on. If you'd like to help me figure this out, send me an email.

Secure Settings Configuration Error

If this has been discussed already I apologize. I've done a bunch of searches and haven't found it.

I was using Secure Settings Pro on a rooted phone, now I've switched to a phone that isn't rooted. Periodically (I think when I run a tasker script that calls Secure Settings, I get an error message that says

And a choice of clicking "NO" or "YES."

First, what the heck do "No" and "Yes" mean? The error message isn't asking a question, and neither option seems to do anything. Second, I know that the System+ options won't work, and I don't believe I'm using any of them. Is there any way to make Secure Settings stop generating this error message?

Seriously? Have you even looked at the apps Settings? Multiple items under Conditions. Multiple things under Actions, Secure Settings Actions, Dev Admin Actions. Specifically?

BT Connection, BT Tether, Execute Shortcut, Run Command, Wake Device, WiFi, Lock Device. And many more. A total of 23 items that work without root. I'm using it to disconnect and connect BT devices, and those actions work fine without root.

The app is set to tell me if there are any updates, and it hasn't, so not an old version.

Hmm. The app won't even let you configure a setting that requires root if you don't have root. But I'd better double check and make sure I didn't import something that requires root.

---------- Post added at 05:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:18 AM ----------

What does using reliable alarms help with?
[Android Apps and Games] GrippingSphere:
From what I understand, since Lollipop build, Android introduced a battery saving feature limiting alarm wakeups within a specific time frame (i.e. only one alarm wakeup is allowed every 20 minutes). This caused apps using time context to sometimes not trigger.

To solve this problem, Tasker introduced the Use Reliable Alarms feature.

Could power nap be affecting it?
[Android Apps and Games] Nergal di Cuthah:
I think so, because isn't power nap the same idea as Doze except that Doze is baked into Marshmallow while powernap gives more options.

Try to whitelist tasker and securesettings, though only the first may be needed
[Android Apps and Games] Tmobilefan906:
Its the power nap app, so I can't whitelist anything. Those options to load settings aren't there. I had it on this morning, and the task profile worked. Odd

[Android Apps and Games] Nergal di Cuthah:
I don't use PN so I was just going by the thread for that module, where they mention whitelist, but I think its that on both those apps you want to turn off both options (endurance is probably causing the issue, but I am guessing only)
