I've been doing essentially exactly this (reversed) for some time. Restored this to a new install of CyanogenMod and it's telling me Decryption Failed each time upon reentering the task edit. It says something about reentering the password but 1) I'm using a Pin and 2) it does saves a new Pin but does it again when I reenter. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling without success. Suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] HoodBoogie:
Same issues here. I am guessing it is broken since so many are having problems.
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
This issue has been fixed. An updated release should be available soon.

I haven't had a chance to look into this yet. I hope to have some time this weekend.

I've found a solution and will hopefully be releasing a beta this weekend.
[Android Apps and Games] Tillsats:
Don't know if this should be in the tasker forum or here. Anyways, I have a profile in tasker where I connect to my VPN with secure settings and then ping my router. I will get a response I can use if it works. But if the VPN connection fails initially, how do I detect it. Secure settings will give me a toast that it fails and then the profile exists. I would like to get notified via a notification that VPN is down.

Any idea? How do I pick up on secure settings toast about failed connection?

Thanks

Not an answer to your question, but just a friendly suggestion:

If you're using a VPN and want to make sure all of your traffic is routed through the VPN, check out the AFWall+ app/thread.

[Android Apps and Games] Tillsats:
Thanks, I will look into it. Just got the donate version from play. However, I still wonder if there is any way of getting a variable or error out if Vpn connection fails via tasker / secure settings. I would like to check my VPN on my router periodically (I only connect for some applications) since it is sometimes broke.

Thanks

It seems that this is a cm @ 10.2 problem since nightly 04 Sep., 03 Sep. is the latest working nightly. This decryption failure you can see at FolderSync, SyncMe WiFi, ... too. Hope the cm team is aware of this ...

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll consider adding this option in a future release.

I solved this problem by changing the encryption method to use PBKDF2 for key derivation. I'm no longer using the SecureRandom Crypto provider (which was a point of contention in the past). I'm wondering if this issue was caused by the new SELinux enhancements CM has been implementing. Anyone have any more insight?

Beta 1.3.4 Available

New beta 1.3.4 available that addresses the Password out of Sync error.

How to join the beta
[Android Apps and Games] MisterEff:
I've been having that same problem. Just became a tester so I will see if it is better when I can download the Beta. I can confirm that the new beta has fixed the problem for me. I just had to go in and set the pin one more time. Nice work on this app, browsing through the comments here I see that you get fixes out as soon as problems arrive.

I do have a separate question though. The enable pattern lock option, how does it know what the pattern is? There is no place to set a pattern like you would for the key lock.
[Android Apps and Games] Charmacas:
Thank you! The new beta also solves the problem for me. :)
[Android Apps and Games] _Tallis_:
Thanks, now the Set Timeout-Option is working. :)

One strange thing, though: even if you set the timeout to 6 hours or any other long time, it shows only 30 minutes in settings-security menu on my N4. But the timeout is in fact set with the right time, i.e. it is only shown wrong. Maybe because you can choose only max 30 minutes in the timeout menu, even if android can manage larger timeouts.
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
The setting that is used to control the pattern lock just sets the state enabled or disabled. It doesn't require setting the pattern each time it's enabled.
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
The settings will not display anything more than the maximum value because these values are hardcoded in the settings app. Everything should work, but just make sure not to change this value again from the settings if you want to keep it at the higher value.
[Android Apps and Games] kinglargo:
Today's nightly did do the trick, apparently superuser was broke since 5th of September.
[Android Apps and Games] _Tallis_:
Okay, I won't touch the value from the settings. Since Tasker/Secure Settings are working fine now I don't think I have to anymore. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] scottx .:
Great work. Glad to have donated. Makes tasker do more of what it needs to do.
[Android Apps and Games] Simba501:
Exactly. Secure Settings is what makes Tasker in my opinion.

New report about the decryption failure: First after entering the Password/PIN again it works. But if my Tasker profile does it automatically it does not work. I always get the ! notification.

[Android Apps and Games] enektyk:
Hey intangibleDroid - thanks for creating such a useful and necessary app!

I seem to be experiencing a problem similar to that which SilentSummer had back in August. The pattern lock option does not seem to work for me. I have a Tasker profile set up for "Pattern Lock Disabled" when connected to my home Wi-Fi.

The pattern lock remains each and every time I unlock my device when the profile is active (connected to home Wi-Fi). I have tried multiple different contexts, but nothing seems to make it work.

The two possible issues discussed for SilentSummer's problem were having it set to "re-enable when you disconnect from wifi" (post #59) related to the Wi-Fi sleep policy and the second was "profiles that disable the keyguard as well" (post #66).

I do not have an exit task requiring it to re-enable when disconnecting from Wi-Fi, I have the Wi-Fi policy set to never sleep, and I do not have any other profiles relating to the keyguard.

This is on a Galaxy S II. Every other option works fine for me - including input changes and GPS on/off (something I couldn't find anywhere else!).

Any suggestions on where to start troubleshooting?
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
Are you using the built-in pattern lock functionality or the workaround found here?
[Android Apps and Games] galom:
Hi.

Wondering if you could look into viability of adding a new option.

Under settings-> call settings-> accounts there is a checkbox for Receive incoming calls (which states if checked reduces battery life). Be great if you could add this option so users could use sip in situations where needed via tasker.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
I will take a look.

Thanks for the input!
[Android Apps and Games] mistraller:
I tried the following:

I have tested with default tasker profile to disable keyguard.

I have patternlock active (which causes the slider lock to be active too)

I would like to disable pattern lock at home, so the task is active after wifi connection is established.

At that moment keyguard is disabled, which will disable both the slider lock AND patternlock. Because the power button on desire is sensitive I want to keep the sliderlock active.

I was hoping that "secure settings" would help me. I have rooted s-off Desire running InsertCoin CM7 rom with the new ring-sliderlock.

After the profile is getting active, my slider AND pattern is disabled...even with securesettings patternlock action in tasker.

I had no problems installing your app, it's was detected, helper install went fine.

The behaviour with disabling both locks was the same on my stock Froyo rom (I did not test with securesetting although) so I thing the rom has nothing to do with this.

I haven't found information on keeping sliderlock, while disabling patternlock. (Most people want the opposite. )

So; is it possible to keep the sliderlock while disabling pattern?
[Android Apps and Games] lucfig:
Tasker > Display > Keyguard (On)??
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
If you have any profiles that disable the keyguard, that will prevent Secure Settings pattern lock effects to be seen.
[Android Apps and Games] waylo:
I've found the Tasker built-in patternlock/keyguard functions are somewhat unreliable.

I have a few Tasker profiles that do exactly what yours do. I think you want specifically the "pattern lock" disable option (rather than keyguard disable) which is only available if you install secure settings helper.

This removes the pattern lock but keeps the slideguard intact.

This is on my Nexus One btw. Not sure if it'll work on others.
[Android Apps and Games] mistraller:
After playing around with keyguard enable/disable, I think some settings were in a wrong state on my desire.

After reapplying all normal settings, and only disable patternlock it works as a charm! So, finally i concluded there's no problem with the helper.

It's just not easy to understand what each setting does, but that applies also to tasker.

At the end, I had even a workaround for a small bug in my custom rom :)

After accepting an incomming call, I could not dismiss it, because the patternlock was on the screen instead of phone screen.

So I created an "incomming call" task which disables the patternlock during the call, and enables it after hanging up. Only thing I have to change is to return to the state how it was before the call. Easiest to do this is to only run the task if the phone is not at home or in car. (patternlock disabled by another task)

Conditional tasks is something I have to learn yet ;)
[Android Apps and Games] xfive420:
I had a similar problem. The built in pattern lock functionality would not work properly. It would not disable the pattern. Since I have the AT&T Samsung Galaxy S2, that other thread you referenced helped. But, for whatever reason, my phone never has any other value but "true" in /efs/cryptprop_lockscreen.patterneverchosen. So the commands there both abort every time. After I removed the conditional part of the commands everything worked. And I used the "run command" portion of the plugin instead of the locale execute plugin. I posted about it in more detail in the other thread. Hope this helps someone.
[Android Apps and Games] akamustang:
Does anyone know the command to pass the current pattern lock status to a Tasker variable?
[Android Apps and Games] sunseaker:
I'd like to suggest / request a change to the Wake Device task. At the moment you offer a minimum predefined duration of 5s. It would be useful if a shorter period was offered like 1s, 2s and 3s or have an option to make it user configurable.

The reason why the shorter duration is required is because I use the Wake Device with Screen Dim task to wake my phone and turn on the screen so I can perform a Keyguard On/Off function in a Tasker profile (a profile which automatically turns the keyguard on or off depending on my location). Due to changes in Android, this is the only way to switch keyguard on/off reliably with 2.3+ Roms, i.e. the screen needs to be on and unlocked.

I find with the 5s duration that the risk is high that I may butt dial while the phone is in my pocket while a profile fires so setting a shorter duration, would greatly reduce the risk.

I've pasted my profile lock task for reference

Profile: Lock-It (19)

Event: Variable Cleared [ Variable:%HOME ]

Enter: Lock (13)

A1: If [ %KEYG ~ off ]

A2: Secure Settings [Configuration:Screen Dim

5 Seconds] Secure Settings [ %KEYG ~ off ]

A3: Keyguard [Set:On]

A4: Set Widget Icon [Name:Keyguard Icon:<icon>] Set Widget Icon [ %KEYG ~ on ]

A5: Set Widget Icon [Name:Keyguard Icon:<icon>] Set Widget Icon [ %KEYG ~ off ]

A6: Set Widget Label [Name:Keyguard Label:KG %KEYG]

A7: System Lock

A8: End If

Thanks for your efforts :)
[Android Apps and Games] angelus249:
hey sunseaker,

thx a lot. i am struggling with the keyguard unlock at this very moment and was gathering information on how to best perform the unlock with working homebutton ;) first "screen on then ..." approaches wouldn't work. was messing with (re)setting pin atm :D

i'll give ur solution a try :)

And yeah, i was thinking about the mininum 5 seconds as well... but decided 5 seconds is not that bad, though less would be nice!
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
There is a manual option at the bottom of the list that could do what you're asking. I can also include shorter durations in the next release.

Bump for v1.1.2 market update
[Android Apps and Games] sunseaker:
I saw that option but it only offered Manual - On. I couldn't figure out how to set a duration in that option.
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
The manual option is meant to be used with a Tasker "Wait" in between turning it on and off.

Also, I just published a new version to the market that includes 1-4 second options.

connect/disconnect VPN -> No VPNs configured

Hi,

I have an unlocked and rooted Motorola Razr I with Pillama ROM and I

want to use Secure Settings for activating and deactivating VPN with Tasker

when I am leaving home wifi.

I use the beta version of Secure Settings, and there is a function for connect/disconnect VPN,

but I cannot select any VPN Profile.

In the dropdown field is the wording "No VPNs configured".

But I configured two VPN Profiles as you can see on the pictures attached,

and they are working both with manual activating.

Does anyone have an idea where the problem is?

Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad english.

Regards

[Android Apps and Games] desktopfusion:
Hullo,

Firstly, thank you developer for the wonderful application!

Second, I decided to get the donate version today, and have been trying out the Google Now shortcut feature (phone : Galaxy Nexus 4.3 PA). Works well for most part, but I may be having a small issue here.

I'm trying to have two simultaneous profiles with the Google Now shortcut as a State context.

1. Secure Settings Google Now + NOT Nova Launcher (App context) > Toggle input keyboard (for Keepass2Android password input / regular keyboard)

2. Secure Settings Google Now + Nova Launcher > Start regular Google Now / Google Search.

Now, both profiles work well individually, but not together. No. 1 works everywhere in NOT Nova Launcher. No. 2 does not work when No. 1 is enabled, but it works when No. 1 is disabled. Tasker Log shows that nothing is happening with No.2 when No.1 is enabled.

I have tried changing Launched task priorities and it turns out I probably don't understand that option fully as there isn't any change in things.

This may be a Tasker thing, but I wasn't sure if the Secure Settings shortcut had no part in this or not, hence this looked like the place to post this question.

Could someone help me out please?

Thanks!

Hi, I would like to start a widget with secure settings.

The app that I am trying to open (Trackthisforme) has 2 activities (in shortcuts) that would do the job, but are not working (one with no response & the other with FC). That is probably because when you create a new widget, you have to link it to a category. But I've created widgets that do work, so I would like to open those up with secure settings.

Now I've tried to open it with popup widget, but i don't know how to start the widget from there on... Any ideals? (simple way) :)

I would like to write a shell command in secure settings (something like run activities + the category name), but i don't know how? Is there maybe a way how to look up what command runs the widget? (better way) :D

Thanks

Lockscreen timeout doesn't work?

Hi,

Lockscreen timeout doesn't work on my device. I press the "save" button after selecting a delay, but it does nothing (doesn't return to tasker).

Any way to send you a logfile?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] intangibleDroid:
Could you email me a logcat log of you triggering the VPN?

Make sure "Debug Logging" is enabled inside of the Secure Settings preferences.

Secure Settings doesn't provide a way of passing information to an activity. If you want to pass information into the activity, you're probably going to have better luck with the "am" command.

This is a known issue and has been fixed in the beta. (Beta instructions)

Hi,

attached you can find two logcat logs (It is not allowed for me to use code tags here).

I hope these files can deliever you the needed information.

Let me know, if you need some other infos.

Thanks for the logs. I just realized I asked for the wrong thing (sorry!). I actually need a log of you opening up Secure Settings (with Debugging enabled) and trying to create a VPN action so I can see why no VPNs are loading. Would you be able to collect that for me?

Hi,

I'm trying to use Secure Settings plugin with Tasker and Autovoice, in order to use the voice on Google Now.

In the several guides you have to create the Task > Plugin > Secure Settings > Edit > Launch Activity > Google search > .VoiceSearchActivity (from the dropdown menu).

But as you can see in the screenshot in the dropdown menu I haven't any menu to select and I can't understand why ("Google cerca" is "Google search" in italian). :confused:

I've tried both with flag and no flag on Device Administrator and Helper is installed.

Samsung Note2 rooted (Omega ROM).

Is a Secure Settings problem or I have to set something?

Thank you so much!

Does anyone know how to enable and disable the "access location" in Google settings?

(I don't mean those in settings - location and settings and google account, I mean, the one in Google's green icon in app drawer which only controls location for Gapps)

That one is troublesome and sometimes causes NLP wakelock.

It would be glad if Secure settings can help control it.

Enter and exit task both using "PatternToggle" task
