Hi,

is possible to enable/disable the Samsung smart scroll ?:confused: i find it useful in car but not elsewhere and wanna automate it with tasker...

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] speedrabbit:
I was wondering if there had been any developments in this area. While I'd love to be able to take advantage of Secure Settings (w/System+), it feels a little too wide open at the moment. In my case, I have none of the apps listed in Compat Apps installed, but Keepass2Android is able to use it to change my keyboard. I looked in the changelog and saw some "supported" apps that weren't listed in the Compat Apps list, but didn't see Keepass2Android as being one. Even if it slipped in there, as soon as one app is on the machine, it seems trivial for a malicious app to emulate another app's broadcasts. Newer androids don't share who made the broadcast, do they?

I do greatly appreciate what the effort behind what is clearly a very fine app, and the ability to disable unused actions. In my current case, I can probably get by with disabling all actions except for "Input Method", as I trust all the keyboards I have installed, but I imagining that approach will be quite limiting as I get more familiar with Tasker.

I need a little help, I cannot make airplane mode work. I configured correctly via tasker. The task runs but not enabling airplane mode. Installed helper but the program says incorrect configuration. I'm using S4 with Hassan Rom 4.4.2 (rooted)

Also have Tasker 4.4b2m and Secure Settings 1.3.4

Any suggestions?

SecureSettings / KeyGuard

I've set up Tasker so that when I have either a BT Headset connected, or I'm connected to my home WiFi Network, the keyguard disables. The only trouble is, it works randomly and I can't work out why it doesn't work sometimes. All of the conditions are met within tasker, but it won't disable the keyguard.
[Android Apps and Games] w0rinal:
which program says incorrect configuration?

does it toggle airplane mode when you're in secure settings to set it up and click "test action"?
[Android Apps and Games] Venomz33:
Secure settings says "incorrrect configuration.It seems the program doesn't need helper plugin installed.It says "use system+"

Btw "test action" command works in Secure settings, but tasker cannot execute the command.
[Android Apps and Games] w0rinal:
how do you set up "either... or"? when setting up two conditions, both must match to activate the profile. or do you do it with two different profiles linked to the same task?

does it happen with both conditions? or does it only sometimes not work when connected to your headset?

---------- Post added at 05:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:19 PM ----------

since there is no helper plugin in 1.3.4 anymore did you install the system+ module?

so secure settings throws an error but it works and tasker does not complain but does not work either.

but since toggling airplane mode is not a system+ action this error should not be important for your problem.

did you check whether the task is actually run in tasker?
[Android Apps and Games] Venomz33:
System + module is "Enabled" and the check icon is green.The task is running when the time comes,I can see it from the notification bar, but doesn't activate Airplane mode.
[Android Apps and Games] w0rinal:
strange thing it does not work...

now i can only guess.

did you set up an if condition in the task which prevents the airplane mode action from getting triggered?

or did you choose the right secure settings action? afaik there is an airplane mode toggle and another action that sets up which functions are disabled when airplane mode is activated
[Android Apps and Games] aSystemOverload:
When I first created it, it seemed to work fine, then it would randomly lock for no reason, now it won't unlock at all. SecureSetttings have answered an email I sent and advised the method they use has been depreciated so I need to remove my phone's keyguard and reactivate it via Tasker, not sure I'm comfortable with that personally. It's very strange why it worked to begin with.

It's the same regardless of which (or both) conditions are active. Using the colour coded lines (for which are active) I can see that it SHOULD be working, it just isn't. I even set a notification KEYGUARD: On/Off (hh:mm) so I could see when it was updated.

I've got some NFC tags, I've got to find a chain / bracelet I can attach it to so I can just tap my chest (or something similar) to unlock it (via xPosed).
[Android Apps and Games] Venomz33:
I didnt set an "if" condition. I'm using "airplane mode" under "root settings" in secure settings. Thats all. Very strange.
[Android Apps and Games] segv11:
Setting airplane mode radios with secure settings, and then immediately rebooting, seems to cause the changes to "stick". That is actually sufficient for my use case, as I want to exclude certain radios from airplane mode semi-permanently (I don't actually need airplane mode for airplanes that often)... however I can see how it might not be sufficient for other people's use cases.

I wonder if knowing this can help the dev figure out a way to make the settings take effect immediately without a reboot, which would be ideal, since that's how it used to work until Google borked functionality (again).
[Android Apps and Games] Venomz33:
I solved my problem by uninstalling SS and Tasker completely.I found an app called "Timed Toggles" which works perfectly fine in Airplane mode.There is really no need to rumble with these apps, because Timed Toggles works perfectly fine alone.
[Android Apps and Games] w0rinal:
well, if you're planning to install xposed framework, No Lock Home by moneytoo could be an alternative to messing around with tasker and secure settings for you

didn't try it myself but it sounds promising

---------- Post added at 02:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:38 PM ----------

imo there's no need to uninstall them, they're great apps though

but it's nice to hear that what you intended to do works for you now :)

Thought I'd just say that I'm having the same problems (if I understand yours correctly) with my wife's Sprint S5. In fact, it's how I found this thread. Occasionally and unpredictably she gets a password lock screen instead of PIN. It can toggle back and forth a dozen times between PIN and Swipe without issue and then randomly set the lock screen to password. The PIN number she set up still works to unlock the password screen, but then we have to manually set it back to PIN lock screen. It's weird. I have exactly the same configuration for Tasker and Secure Settings with my S4 and have never had this problem. She gave up and asked me to remove Tasker completely because it became a hassle for her.
[Android Apps and Games] pickupman66:
well IM glad im not the only one who is completely crazy here. I just deal with it. i need to learn my tasker better because now I cannot get the exit tasks to stop if another profile is on. GO figure.

[Android Apps and Games] Tony crousty:
Hello all,

I'm surprised that Secure setting doesn't have the simple action "Toggle wifi".

Did I missed something?

---------- Post added at 11:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 AM ----------

I saw the "Wireless ADB Toggle" is able to activate and inactivate wifi. Is there any risk or issue that I use this action simply to activate my wifi? (I do not even know what ADB means).
[Android Apps and Games] MarkAndroid.UK:
Tasker already has a perfectly good toggle for WiFi under the 'Net' options.

ADB stands for Android Development Bridge. Normally you would use adb with the phone plugged in to a usb port on a PC and be able to execute adb commands and functions to affect your phone e.g. transferring system files. adb has nothing to do with switching WiFi on/off, what you are seeing is a switch allowing other software to enable adb access over it. You should leave it off for security.
[Android Apps and Games] Tony crousty:
Thank you for the explanation about adb. Nevertheless, I'm sure that the action I'm talking about can turn WiFi on and off. I checked it before I post. But anyway, regarding what you told me I should not use it for this propose.

And the reason why I look for this feature in secure settings is that I do not use taker but Llama, and its WiFi feature just can turn it on or off. Not just toggle the state.
[Android Apps and Games] MarkAndroid.UK:
You're welcome. It could be the application (wireless adb) that switches WiFi on and off, after all, WiFi will need to be on! I only know about tasker - its WiFi option has toggle/on/off too.
[Android Apps and Games] Tony crousty:
Maybe I should replace Llama with Tasker. But that's a pity to have to do that and learn how to use a full (and apparently complex) new tool, only to fit this pretty simple need.
[Android Apps and Games] MarkAndroid.UK:
Like I said, I know Tasker not Llama but can you not invoke a shortcut or something in Llama, because there are plenty of WiFi switching shortcuts in the store that you could use. In fact there is such a thing in secure settings!
[Android Apps and Games] Tony crousty:
Of course I can. I had a quick look to it in the Playstore, and all of the "wifi toggles" that I found in the store uses widgets, not shortcuts. Maybe I didn't used the right keywords. Maybe I didn't used the right keywords...
[Android Apps and Games] MarkAndroid.UK:
I think you need someone with more Llama knowledge :fingers-crossed:
[Android Apps and Games] Tony crousty:
You must be right. Thanks again for your help ;)

I'm running a Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 running KitKat 4.4.2 with Tasker and Secure Settings.

Tasker tells secure settings to set a PIN, tablet asks for a PASSWORD and won't take the PIN. I would be locked out except I have it set to clear the PIN when connected to my home AP.

System+ is installed and working. This same exact Tasker/Secure Settings lock/unlock tasks work fine on my Note 2 running KitKat.

Had to disable automatic locking tasks for now on the 10.1.
[Android Apps and Games] tarmacsurfer:
Afternoon all. I've been using Tasker/Secure Settings for a good few years, just transitioned to an S5 from my old S3 and they are two of the first apps I've put on (they're the main reason I've rooted it in fact :laugh:).

I've searched the thread a few times and seen a couple of mentions of the issue but no resolution beyond uninstalling/reinstalling and resetting permissions and none of those have worked for me.

The problem is that System+ is unable to verify permissions, it seems to go into setup with no problem then when SuperSU grants permissions the secure settings app states that it's unable to verify and disables the module. Rebooting, reinstalling both secure settings and supersu (all pro versions) and much messing around later there's still no way of activating it.

Should I simply revert to an older version of Secure Settings and install the helper app or am I missing something obvious here?

I installed secure settings and tasker, created a profile with app Sygic -> task secure settings location mode "high accuracy", then put my location mode to battery saving to see if it worked, but when I launch Sygic it doesn't switch to High Accuracy.. I enabled System+ and Device Administrator in the settings, but no luck..

GPS stays on and drains battery

I have a slight issue with turning off the GPS via Secure Settings;

I noticed my battery drained fast so I investigated the issue. When i jump in my car I turn on GPS via Tasker and SS. As soon as I arrive home or at work, Tasker turns off GPS via SS.

Although GPS is turned off in the GUI it stays active under the hood. I checked this via battery management. This problem does not happen when I turn on and off GPS manually. Only a reboot of the phone helps to reset the GPS feature and turn it off.

Anyone else with this issue? I use the latest DANVDH Rom (4.4.4)
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
Kitkat disabled access to GPS. You can sometimes toggle high accuracy / battery save, depending on the ROM. IntangibleDroid has been very busy and has not had time to update Secure Settings since Android 4.2.x if I remember correctly. Thank Google.

Check your battery stats to see if GPS is not lurking power.

If you are using Xposed, look at this as a solution. I was toggling location from battery save to high accuracy and back, but with this module, just leave it on high!

As another data point, I too am on a Galaxy S5 (International, SM-G900F) and am also suffering the "randomly set a password instead of a PIN" issue. It is also random whether the password that's set works (ie: is the PIN) or doesn't work (ie: I need to log onto my Samsung account to unlock my phone).
[Android Apps and Games] WietsedeVries:
I experience a bug on the Oneplus One with the default CM11S lockscreen. I don't know if it happens on other lockscreens too. When I toggle Pattern Unlock (while screen is off), the first time I turn my screen on after that, the switch is done just half.

When I change from enabled to disabled, the height of the blue block is still the same height as it was when Unlock was disabled and I can't swipe it down to unlock. I have to turn my screen off again to unlock it the second time.

When I change from disabled to enabled, I do see the pattern, but it doesn't work. The phone unlocks with just swiping the blue box down.

Is there any way to fix this myself? Or is it possible this will be fixed in the next update?

EDIT: Yes, I tested both the SQLite option and the experimental option. They both give the same result.
