There are people who DON'T use Tasker?

Ones in blue are ones I use on the N7, rest are ones on the Phone

Profiles:

Location based Home/Work Profiles

Calendar event based "Quiet" profile

Time based "Night" profile w/ "manual" trigger (AC + flipped on face for those early nights)

Context based "Car" profile (AC + Some Car related program... Waze is the normal trigger), goes back to previous when AC disconnects

Tracking Related:

Uploads my location to my web server every 10 minutes

Can upload my location as often as every 5 seconds in another "mode"

Recovery:

If I receive an SMS or EMail with a certain phrase in it, it'll act on a command in the email/SMS

----- Example: One command sends back location, current phone number, last call in, last call out, last sms # in, last sms # out, battery level, some other misc stuff responded to the email or sms it came from

If the phone number on the phone changes (ie: SIM changes), it'll kick off the above example and send it every 5 minutes to a predefined SMS

Utilities:

Download some geocaching data from my server every night and unzip it ready to be imported

Based on location, dings me if I'm still at the house at 7:25 to remind me to get moving to drop off daughter at school

Based on location, dings me if I'm still at work to pick up at 5pm

Dings every 2 minutes if I've missed a phone call, sms, or voice mail

Tells sleepbot I'm going to sleep and triggers my Night profile if it's after a set time and it's on AC and flipped face-down

If Car Home is running, launch Waze for navigation

----- and when we've stopped Waze and AC is unplugged, stop Car Home and turn off

Widget that when ran, turns off GPS, waits a second, then runs a News app

----- Because the news app is f'ing braindead and stalls until it gets a GPS lock

----- And when we exit the news app, kill it, turn on GPS again.

Widget that when ran counts down a predefined time, lowering volume, and eventually doing a MEDIA stop. ie: Music fade

Screen off on my tablet turns off wifi and bluetooth; and when opened up again, it turns them back on if they were previously on

If I turn on my tablet and it can't find a wifi connection in 10 seconds, it asks if I want to enable bluetooth. I have bluetooth tethering enabled on my phone, so this way it tethers to the phone easily if I'm not near wifi.

Puts phone into suspend mode if upside down. This way if it turns on in my pocket, it goes back to sleep immediately

----- Unless the phone is ringing or I'm on a call

Run a script which backs up my SD card to my Linux workstation nightly

----- Uses Secure Settings, sh script, rsync, enables wifi if it's off before starting

NFC:

Work tag, set a NFC_WORK variable, that if set, never changes from my Work profile

------ Until I get in the car and the tag in my cradle is scanned, or it's after 5:30

Car tag, enable Bluetooth GPS Provider which connects to my bluetooth GPS, starts Car Home

Sleep tag, same as flipping the phone on its face mentioned earlier, but really don't use this one much

I'm having trouble with this airplane mode one. Sometimes it won't turn off the WiFi when the screen is off and ends up doing it when I have the screen turned back on. Or it will wait the 5 minutes after i have the screen on then turn wifi off and aiplane radios on. I'm a newb when it comes to tasked so any help would be awesome. Does this look right?

I wrote a tasks for both my phone and my tablet that text my boss who always hides in the back room when I need help. Initially I accidentally texted him at like 2am, so I created tasks that modify a variable so I can turn the function on and off. Sort of a safety feature that prevents me from angering him. So long story short, when I need help on the floor, I just click a home screen widget that asks him to the come out via sms.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] willis936:
Wow. Would it be too much to ask for you to make a ti backup of this, take out all of the emails, IPs, phone numbers, names, and other personal info, make a ti backup of that, post the data only here, then restore the previous backup?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] SwiftLegend:
Whoa if there was a way for it to also make my phone turn on bluetooth tethering, I'd be happy as hell. (If you could figure that out, I'd love you til the end of time).

Would also love some info on that location alarm since I suck at Tasker. I'm always rushing in the morning, because I never leave the house at the right time :S
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
I could do that, I'll have to do it in a day or two, but I'd probably just do a backup that could be restored.

It's possible I think... You can do Launch App then DPad actions. So yeah, ugh, but it's possible.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] SwiftLegend:
But how would my tablet tell my phone to turn in on? o.o
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] deadcaribou:
I don't think tasker has the built in function to turn tether on, but you can launch a third party app like "bluetooth autotether", that should do the trick (it works for me at least ;)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] McLeod5000:
I have installed Open Garden on phone and Nexus7. BT on my phone is always on. Whenever I turn on BT on my Nexus7, tethering is automatically initiated.

So I set up a tasker profile on my Nexus7 to turn BT on whenever wifi is not connected, and turn it off when it is.

Works like a charm. :cyclops:
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] SwiftLegend:
Cool, I was just thinking of setting up a profile that when I pressed the icon, it sent a message to my phone, which in turn, would activate tethering on my phone. Unfortunately, I can't think of a way to send that message. Can we send SMS via NFC or Bluetooth?

Cool I'll try this out. Can I have some more info on it? This Open Garden app is new to me and so is Tasker.

Does anyone know of a way to have Tasker monitor for my N7 pairing to my GN via bluetooth? I have an idea :P
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] McLeod5000:
Setting up Open Garden is pretty simple. Just install the app on both devices and follow the on-screen instructions.

In Tasker you then could define a profile "BluetoothTether" (or whatever you'd like to name it) which - like every tasker profile - consists of contexts and tasks.

The contexts define when the tasks will be exceuted. I added a context for Wifi not being connected and another one for the display being on.

Then I defined an enter task "BluetoothOn" and an exit task "BluetoothOff".

So whenever I have no Wifi connection AND my display is on (multiple contexts are connected via an AND-condition in Tasker), Bluetooth will be activated (enter task). If a wifi connection is established or the display is switched off, BT will be deactivated (exit task).
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
If you're talking about Bluetooth tethering, just leave it enabled all of the time on your phone. Yes, it forces bluetooth on, but bluetooth uses almost zero power when not active.

I'm running Tasker on my Evo 3D and the Nexus 7. I'm working on ideas for profiles that will work with both.

For instance, when I'm at work or home, I don't need the wifi hotspot on the phone active, so Profile that, turning it on when I'm out and about.

Then on the Nexus, if not connected to some other WiFi source, it means I'm out and about, so connect to the hotspot.

There has got to be all kinds of ways to harness the possibilities of two devices communicating with each other and both using Tasker...
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] :
i have my tasker set to enable 3g when screen on and disable 3g when screen off. But it is possible when screen on and there bad signal like 1bar, it doesnt turn on 3g...any1 can help me out..much appreciated thx

Whenever that happens to me, my Mobile Data (3G/HSPA+) will eventually turn on when I eventually get a good signal.

Reading toast messages

Hi all. I'm new to Tasker, and still fumbling through.

I think it would be cool to have my tablet read my toast messages.

Can someone let me know how please?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] MrBrady:
I'd love to see a write-up for this profile. It's exactly what I'm looking for.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] kolpa06:
I did the same with my Nexus 7. Although the device lags a couple of seconds after the airplane mode is turned off when the display is on, I am very happy with the battery life. It is not any better than an ipad on sleep but still much better than turning wifi or sync off.

BTW, before airplane mode trick, I used to turn wifi off. However, wifi becomes very unstable after consequent display on/off s. Airplane solves the problem completely.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] bramgg:
My setup.

I'm not all that great in creating profiles for Tasker, but a while ago I downloaded some profiles here and there and messed with them. So now I have this setup:

After testing the possibilities with Tasker (such as GPS-location based profiles and Celltower-location based profiles) my experience was that they worked most of the time, but not always. It was like 8 out of 10 times that profiles were started successfully. Maybe it was bad configuration on my part.

But I always have Wifi on so I decided to create/edit profiles so they would start when a particular Wifi SSID was nearby or connected. This works flawlessly! I have a Wifi connected variable that, when a connection is established, sets the variable to 1. If Wifi is disconnected the exit task is to clear the variable.

So I have a couple of profiles of locations where I come often (Home, Office, Folks etc.) and these are triggered when a particular SSID is connected. The only thing you have to do is to connect to the Wifi network at the different locations and back them up in the corresponding Tasker profiles (I use Titanium Backup to backup all Wifi connected networks so I always have these backed up).

As soon as I go out my phone loses the Wifi connection and then automagically triggers a Bluetooth profile that will be on for 20 minutes. If not connected with my Parrot in the car (I'm not going out for a ride) it will shut off after 20 minutes. But when I do start my car it will auto connect to the Parrot and will trigger the Car profile. When I drive to the shop and disconnect, the former Bluetooth profile will be started so I will have 20 minutes to do groceries and get back in the car before bluetooth shuts off.

Since Wifi is always on I'll get out the car and walk to the office/home/whatever and will connect with the Wifi when in range, so it wall trigger the profile based on the Wifi SSID and de-activate the Bluetooth profile.

Examples for the different profiles are different ringtone and volume, brightness level, etc. Also, when at home and the charger is on, and between 23.30 - 07.30 (11.00 in the weekend ;)) + screen up will have a very silently profile triggered. Face down will trigger the absolute quietness profile.

Please don't ask me for the exact steps as it's a long time ago since I made these profiles, and they work flawlessly each day since, so I'm somewhat rusty again, let alone with the new design. But I've downloaded most of the profiles here: Tasker Website, and modified them.

So Tasker is, next to Titanium Backup, THE best app I use on a daily, hell, even hourly, basis. It is the second thing I install on a new phone (after Titanium with the backup of Tasker of course) and will be in my top 3 Apps ever I think...

Great work Pent!

Been really learning it the last couple weeks.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] CarsnGadgets:
1.) I have a profile set up, linked to a widget on my homescreen, set to restore all of my individual volume settings to pre defined levels.

I find that a lot of apps and games seem to alter one volume or another, this profile with one click restores them all to the levels I like and toasts a message saying "volumes" reset.

2.) I have set my Gmail notification to "silent"in the gmail app, and set up a task that says "New Gmail Sir" via TTS. This task is triggered by a profile that watches for any Gmail notification.

3.) I have a profile which reduces my screen brightness to 10% automatically when I open the Kindle app, and it restores to the previous level when I exit the app.

Live wallpaper buttons

I have two Live wallpapers for my Nexus 7 2nd gen: Inferno Galaxy and Shadow Galaxy. I created two different tasks for both apps then created a profile that turns one on at night and one on during the day. The task is as follows:

Task Name: Dark Star

1. Load App - Inferno Galaxy

2. Wait - 1 ms

3. Run Shell - Command input tap 600 840 ( <--- type this in)

4. Wait - 1 ms

5. Run Shell - Command input tap 870 1778 ( <--- type this)

And that's it! Clone this task and change the app to Shadow Galaxy then create a profile like so:

( I made two actually :p )

1. Profile - Time

From 17:00 Till 08:00 (17 is 5pm in case you were wondering) --> Dark Star

2. Profile - Time

From 08:00 Till 17:00 --> Light Star

And you're done! :) Simple and easy. :good:

Epic Nexus 7 profiles

I have two pretty good profiles in use

---------- Post added at 06:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------

... continuing before I press return again

1. I have a wall-mounted Nexus 7 for control of my Home Automation system and for general use. When I walk up to the tablet,

without touching it

, it will:-

Turn on the screen from locked

Speaks to me and asks what I would like to do, plus voice recognition prompt

If I reply with an appropriate answer, it will do things such as turn on a light

Opens a dashboard with access to all available lighting switches etc

(Requires Android tablet,+ Tasker + Secure settings plugin + Motion Detector app + Imperihome (pro) + Vera 3 automation controller with control devices)

2. For a bit of fun, I can set the Living Room to 'Chilled' setting such as if I brought a girl home (don't tell the wife!)

In Living Room touch Android phone on to an NFC tag

This turns all lights off in the Living Room except one to a dimmed level

Says "Well hello"

Plays Barry White on the Sonos system ....... enjoy!

(Requires Android phone with NFC + Tasker + Secure settings plugin + Trigger + Imperihome + Vera 3 automation controller with control devices + Sonos system)

3..... and a third one ... Based on an internet event such as a Facebook posting, Twitter etc etc, it can trigger an event in the home such as Saying something or flashing internal lights or ...

(Requires Android tablet/phone + Tasker + Secure settings plugin + Trigger + IFTTT web account + K9 email + (if you want home automation actions) Imperihome (pro) + Vera 3 automation controller with control devices)

I sincerely hope you have a new job by now. Or at least a new boss.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Bl4ckX:
So I am using the following on my Nexus 5:

- WiFi on near home

Turns on WiFi based on the cell it is connected to while I am at home. Way more battery friendly than using location for this although location might be a bit more precise.

-Sound/Lock

Toggles sound and my screen lock if I am at home. Pattern lock gets turned off and sound gets turned on when I am connected to my WiFi. When I am disconnected from my WiFi pattern lock gets turned on again and sound is being set to vibrate mode

-Night Mode

All notification sounds are simply set to 1 between 11pm and 7am when I am at home

-Intelligent Location

Switches location mode to high accuracy while being in maps and switches to battery saving when I leave maps again

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Android300ZX:
Hello guys. I'm new on this part of the forum but a member here for years. I just picked a Moto 360 and my current phone is a AT&T Note 4. I previously bought Tasker but upon opening it chills went down my spine and I closed it and forgot about it. Anyway, re-downloaded it since I was reading you can do some pretty cool things with it. Also, downloaded and purchased Tasker Now which enables the watch to start the tasks.

Anyway, I started off with the Basics.

First attempt at Tasker:

Profiles:

- Home

[When I get home I start Google Now on the Watch and speak "Take a Note Home]

- Work

[When I get to work I start Google Now on the Watch and speak "Take a Note Work]

For Home it will turn on Auto Brightness, Wifi, Adjusts my Volumes (Ringtones, Media, Notifications, System) to my preferences.

For Work it will turn off Auto Brightness, Turn on Wifi, Adjusts my Volumes (Ringtones, Media, Notifications, System) to my preferences.

I have attached the profile I made in both formats. You can import this profile and tweak it to your liking. To make the Work Profile go to the Profile section in Tasker and tap and hold on the word Home (hit menu on top right and hit Clone). After this all you have to do is Rename it to Work and edit the tasks. Hopefully this helps you guys.

Idea for New Profile

Ok, so on my Moto 360 watch I use this app called Wear Codes. What this app does is allows me to scan my loyalty cards, gym membership card, etc on the phone app and then transfers to the Watch. So when I arrive to the gym, I open the app on the watch, choose my Retro Fitness Barcode and scan into the gym.

Now I'm wondering if the following will be possible:

Create a Profile so when I check into the gym it'll open my Rdio app, open up my Gym Playlist and start playing a random song or the first song on the list. Not sure if this is possible or not but I want to bounce off of you guys.

I found this on the Wiki but I'm using a Bluetooth headset so it's always paired to the phone.

Hi all,

I’m a noob and I need your help configuring the last steps of my nexus 7 2013 lte (using timur) car install. I am struggling to understand and configure tasker for the following, could somebody please help me with a step by step? I will appreciate this a lot !

- On start-up add 3-5 sec delay ( or less? ) due to short off-on ignition time

- On start-up, resume music (power app), start “location” services – for waze/gmaps and weather(accurate weather app maybe?)

- Start wifi hotspot ( the tablet is 4g and I have unlimited data sim on it, so, is it worth it? Will the data signal required for the tablet itself to work properly will decrease or this will not be affected ?)

- If idle for few moments (give me suggestions please!)

-> start waze - Adjust the screen light according to the time of the day I can’t think of something else right now, maybe if you guys have better ideas, please let me know

P.S. I would also want to add a longer delay to timurs shutdown count down.. at least 10 seconds where I can choose if I want it to close after that or if I want to keep listening music/surf the internet, with an option to close later maybe ? P.S.2 Please also suggest me an app or tweak to allow me to place the apps on the homescreen anywhere I want and not on a grill layout. I am also starting to configure gm gesture control for music (pause play, next previous ) Other ideas please ?

Also can somebody help me remove that annoying "update your software" from android updates?

I would also wish I could change or add a short video (of my car brand) when the tablet opens but I have not idea how to do it.
