Simple Notification Counter for Tasker?

Hey there,

I am just getting to know tasker and have already found lots of useful info on using it. I have been looking for a way of tasker sending a notification counter to zooper. Maybe somebody can help me out with this, as I could not find any solution (I know how to set up notification counters per app, but thats not what I am looking for).

I want to make a zooper widget for my lockscreen in text form which reads "You have XX new notifications" (XX being the number of missed notifications). XX should accumulate all the different types of notifications there are (text, email, calendar, whattsapp etc.). Is there any way of doing this?

Furthermore, it would be awesome if tapping the widget would reset the counter XX back to zero.

If anybody has an idea I would greatly appreciate it :fingers-crossed:

The first two require root to disable the light. The third doesn't need root.

finally was able to create some sort of powerac variable using two tasks. one power AC and other not power AC. where the first equals 0 and the second equals 1.

devs should really implement a built in power variable. it doesnt make sense all this work to such a simple rule.

now back to the board to find how to create some sort of download variable.

Smartwatch u8

I have a cheap u8 smartwatch, and it drains my battery when it's constantly connected with Bluetooth. I mainly use it to check notifications and messages, so I don't need it to be connected all the time. I'd like a script that connects every 5 minutes minutes, for 1 minute, then disconnects again, regardless of if my watch is still connected or not. Just off, on, off, on and so on..

Thanks for any response.

Can someone make a Tasker profile to automate receive file from paired bluetooth device?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skiiermike:
Hey have you figured out how to do this yet? I would love to do the same.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] donkeyhigh:
Yeah I made it happen, but not with tasker..

I got this app called AutoBluetooth (in one word), it let me set bt to be enabled at specific times. You have to set enabled time, and disable time. Manually. For every instance. It takes time, but it works. I sent mail to the developer, asking about a interval function, and he said he would look into it.

Then I use the app "Bluetooth Auto Connect", so my phone always autoconnects with the watch. In the app, I get a list of all my bt devices, and I set the watch as priority 1.

Everything works great, and it saves ALLOT of battery. The only problem to me is

1: the watch makes a low volume biip sound every time it connects /disconnect. I guess I should open it up and remove the speakers.

2: if I'm talking on the phone and the watch connects, it thinks I want to talk through the watch. So I have to disable bt headset manually. There is probably a way to fix this.

Hope this helps :)

hi all,

i am having trouble setting up Microsoft exchange of my school on s3. it just keep giving error that password or username is incorrect. even though i have the mail open on my laptop. am running cm10 9-05 nightly. i never had this problem on my dinc....any suggestion
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bbgt2:
Try setting it up while ur on ATT data and not in WiFi.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] iforge:
i just tried it and still the same error username or password incorrect !! is it because i have easy battery saver runnin in behind ???
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bbgt2:
I doubt the battery app is causing it. The only problem I had with exchange is that Comcast sometimes did not like my exchange servers.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bimmerd00d:
Is your school using Google apps?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] iforge:
mmm not really sure but will make sure go to them....thnks

On my exchange account, using the AOSP stock email app, I had to change the port from 440 to 80 for it to connect.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] iforge:
hmmm yeh i was also wondering about port no. also cuz in my dinc i had 143 as port no. though i was using imap( does that matter ) but on my cm10 09-06 it shows 443... anyways, i would make sure visit the tech service desk today
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drksilenc:
are you makin sure you set what ever the server name is as well. sometimes it doesnt auto find the server and that could cause it like mine is mail.*****.com
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] iforge:
yea i put everything as it was suggested by our school; how to setup on Android phone.....somehow it just keep saying username or password incorrect
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jhunkab:
try manual setup with domain\username

You might need manual setup. See if you need to use the

domain

\username, password and then your mail.schooldomain.com server details.

you can also check the ActiveSync setup by going to - https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drksilenc:
if his school is giving him android directions then as is deff setup. now what you say about the domain\ is very possible but i doubt it because i am using the same rom as him and administrate an exchange 2010 server which has more security reqs as far as stuff like that goes so other than a mistyped key idk what the problem for him could be unless they are requiring caps in username.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SaneinOne:
My guess would be that you're using server/username as opposed to server\username. Again, only a guess.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] iforge:
Well am back from the tech service desk and they also they don't have any answers no wonder he just keep saying "that's how I set up on my sheep" huh... Disappointed....

What about ssl? Do you have that checked? If your school requires it and you don't have it checked you might get that error.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] uglyren:
I recently set up my S3 to access my company's Exchange server. I also had a hard time setting it up initially and had to do a manual setup.

Since you are getting both a username and password error first make sure that you are using the right exchange server address.

For me it is something like

exch2010.servername.com .

Next you should make sure that your user name is preceded by your domain name. In my case my server name and domain name are the same.

So it should look something like.

domain\username

Hope this helps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TwoOneOh!:
Just to add on here. My server name and domain name are also the same however the trick that works for me is that i cannot put in my domain name prior to my username, if i do it will fail to connect. I do have to input the backslash prior to my username though or again it will fail to connect. Also is your IT dept using a security policy on the server side to control mobile device access to Activesync? I know from my own experience that if you use a security policy to prevent unprovisioned devices from accessing the Activesync account the user will see an "incorrect password error repeatedly, at least on some phones like the iPhone for instance.

Domain\Username

*leave blank*\username@domain.com

Hello members, so i was reading about the GooPhone that is supposedly patented with the Iphone 5 design in China. They are apparently ready to sue apple once the phone is released.

Anyway it led me to a site that has android/windows/blackberry devices.

Now they seem legit, have looked around and seen that there are some reviews, only negative comments are about the long shipping.

My question is, has anyone here ever ordered from this site.

http://www.fastcardtech.com/

I was interested in maybe ordering a device playing with it for a while, then maybe sending to a dev to see if the components would match that of its US counterpart to see if custom ROMS would be able to be installed.

So please read, look, get interested, and chat about the site!!!!

a 6" phone... holy crap... are these any good? My mother has been wanting a Galaxy note for the screen size but she uses none of the features of a smart phone other than basic calendar and to do tasks. This would be great....
[Member-Found Deals] PantechBurstOwner:
If she really doesn't do anything on it then I would get out for her because 512mb of ram is the same a an IPhone which has fast enough speed for every day tasks not sure if she will need more than 4GB of space but there is a microsd slot up to 32GB so that might help 1GHz processor is beyond overkill for what you said she does so sure why not!

After some careful research, and some digging into chinese forums. These phones are complete fakes.

It seems that they may not ever make it stateside. They also have IMEI problems, so they may work for a week, but after that they seem to start having disconnect problems. Also looks like the GPS will not work, being that it is based in China satelittes will not transmit here.

I almost bought one today, like 3 times, but after more and more digging, I have decided not too.

This seems to be a complete scam. There are a bunch of sites claiming fraudulent accounts among the site as well.

What seemed so nice quickly slips away.
[Member-Found Deals] Apaca1ypse:
Ouch... Buzzkill... Guess I should've done a little more digging before posting those sites. BTW, do you have any reference links?
[Member-Found Deals] primus123:
I first went on www.fastcardtech.com/forums and was reading the results of users. Alot sounded pretty upset. Although there are not very many replies, there are some feedback.

I asked a question about a device, and then asked the same question again 2days later, and got a different answer. I will do it again, and get a screen shot so that I can show you all. There was another forum in XDA about the site, there are some saying its legit, others not so much.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=561534

Will post back with more.

I am still considering ordering one, just havent decided yet. I know as soon as I do that they will announce the Note 2 for Tmobile.
[Member-Found Deals] primus123:
I have found a few more credible sites, there is,

www.koobay.com

www.exportandgo.com

Upon searching the fastcardtech site brands devices to companies that dont actually have these devices. For instance, I have found the HDC (china phone maker) and they list their products, then you reference the FTC site and there are thousand of HDC branded devices that are not actually HDC brand!

I tried to flash MIUI onto my phone and now I can no longer boot my phone. I was using CM recovery and now I cant get it to open. When I select recovery it opens for a second and then it tries to boot but gets stuck on the HTC screen. The only thing I can get to work is Fastboot.
[HTC Rezound] Damasterjj:
flash amon ra
[HTC Rezound] jtracer04:
no change

It didnt help it still starts up recovery and then closes it and goes to htc screen
[HTC Rezound] Damasterjj:
can you get in bootlouder? if so its probably a good idea to flash a RUU
[HTC Rezound] jtracer04:
yes

I can get it to the bootloader and I know im showing my noob side but what is a RUU
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Well technically we misuse the term ruu, since it's actually a exe you run on your computer.

What people usually mean by ruu is a zip that has official, stock HTC everything.

Rom, recovery, hboot, radio etc

Rename file to PH98IMG and put in the root of your sd, then flash it in bootloader.

Sent from my ADR6425LVW
[HTC Rezound] jtracer04:
ill try

Do you know anywhere I can find those files im searching and cant find them
[HTC Rezound] jtracer04:
I found the files and still cant get my phone to boot and it is still skipping the recovery when I try and open it.
[HTC Rezound] Wendemixda:
Before you flash, you should know that if the RUU file you are using is not a rooted one, you may loose root by flashing it to your phone.There are rooted RUUs on XDA and I hope you are using one of them.

Now if you have downloaded the RUU file to your computer

1.Rename it as PH98IMG and put it on your SD card.

2. power off your phone (preferably by removing the battery and putting it back).

3. restart your phone by holding down volume down and the power button. Your phone will reboot to bootloader. The bootloader should automatically load the file you rename PH98IMG and ask you if you want to install the update.

4. Press volume up for YES. Bootloader will install the file. Follow the instructions to finish.
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Search on Google.

You probably want the 3.14.605.12 ruu if you haven't updated to global firmware.

Sent from my ADR6425LVW
[HTC Rezound] jtracer04:
I did that and it finds the image but dosent ask me to install just loads it and thats it
[HTC Rezound] Wendemixda:
Did you see a a vertical bar working on the top right of your phone? If the PH98IMG loads correctly, there should be a message in red at the bottom asking if you want to start the update.
[HTC Rezound] jtracer04:
The bar loads but I don't get the message to do the update
[HTC Rezound] zone23:
So when you fastboot flash recovery recovery.img that appeared to work? If so did you try fastboot erase recovery first?
[HTC Rezound] jtracer04:
It keeps saying remote access not allowed and the PH98IMG will load but not prompt to install
[HTC Rezound] zone23:
Dont see were you say are you S-Off? Sounds kinda like your phones locked..
[HTC Rezound] jtracer04:
Im not on S-off Im still on S-on
[HTC Rezound] zone23:
Well the top line in your bootloader should say something along the line of Unlocked or Tampered if it doesn't then you need to use HTC Unlock tool and unlock your bootloader again. If its locked you can't do anything. Check that out.

Edit:

It should look something like the attached image.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] Wuschelbeutel:
I've typed on my dad's Galaxy SII before and I really suck at it, so I'm thinking about going with a slider phone.

Obviously, the SIII has better hardware (1.5Ghz instead of 1GHz, 2GB RAM instead of 1GB, 16GB flash vs. 8GB, 720p screen resolution vs. 480p, 1080p video vs. 720p, slower camera) but I think all of these can be absorbed by the $150 saved by going with the Captive Glide.

On the other hand, I live in an area that supports 4G LTE and I've seen reports that its much faster (around an order of magnitude) than the slower 4G standard that the Glide supports. My friend told me, though, that he turns off 4G anyway to preserve battery life.

I've also seen a lot of reports on the web that the Glide battery life is short.

The real decision factors are battery life, typing comfort and Internet speed IMO.

I've never had a smartphone. Given these criteria can you please tell me which one of the phones you recommend?

Thanks
[Samsung Captivate Glide] clockwork58:
Battery life is always a variable.

If I leave my phone alone for the weekend and I don't use it for 90% of the weekend, it can go 2.5 days before a charge and that's with wifi on the entire time. But of course heavy use and you'll need to charge it after 8 hours, but that's with any phone and I have peeps with SIII and they visit me asking to plug in their phone midday.

As for slider, have u checked if any new slider's have come onto market since november?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Wuschelbeutel:
best one is prob. droid 4, but i wanna stick with att
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bakageta:
I'd vote the Glide, but then you're asking in the Glide forum so we may be a bit biased. Battery life is just fine for me, with an average amount of use I have no problems going a full day on a charge, and even heavy usage is no worse than any other smartphone I've used (or known friends who've used). The keyboard is one of the better ones out there, probably not quite as good as the droid 4 but it's very respectable, so if you're not a fan of touch-screen keyboards that's a huge bonus point. While the SIII is faster, the Glide is certainly not slow. It plays games wonderfully and has no problems with anything I do.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
Both are great phones.the question is does it bother you took pay an extra $150 for something that you can do on the glide for less. You need to weigh the pros and cons.

Glide

1. Hardware keyboard

2. Less expensive

3 Smaller more portable

4. This community!

S3

Better hardware

Bigger screen

Ics and probably jelly bean before the glide, not prerelease versions.
