how to do an android video demo with voice

Thanks for your time in doing this. It is helpful.

I like your idea to make videos. I think the target audience is people new to tasker, so they can see how the program is built in the Tasker interface.

I would like to point out that it is difficult to figure out what is being done in Tasker when there is no narration voice (which submenu did you select to get to that action.. etc).

I have just done a tutorial myself with voice, uploading it to youtube now.. will post when it’s there.

Here’s how I made video with narration.

I followed the plan identified here to use Droid VNC server on Android phone, and RealVNC on pc:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRN9Tits44w

Note that DroidVNC server is free on Android Market.

Note that RealVNC can be downloaded for free from download.com (cnet)... which means they have screened it to a certian extent. Just make sure when you install it, you read the screens carefully to avoid the extra junk they try to add.

During installation, RealVNC asked permission to bypass firewall, I did NOT check that block (not needed).

After installation, RealVNC asked me to register, that is not needed (except perhaps to create encrypted communication).

I simply ran the program vnc viewer and copied the IP address from DroidVNC in there, then the Android screen is showing on my PC. Also I can type input on my pc and do some Android gestures with my mouse.

The last program I used was SMRecorder (also available as free download from download.com, remember to read installation carefully again to avoid agreeing to extra junk-ware) to record my PC screen as well as my narration.

All programs come from Android Market or Download.com... a small measure of comfort against malware.

Here is my video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=il5EAKkMgGI&feature=youtu.be

Description of My Video:
Example of building a profile in Tasker (narrated)
This profile turns data off if screen turns off and remains off for predetermined time.
After 4:30, the remainder of the video is a rambling look at how this can be integrated with other Tasker profiles, and use of widgets in dock of Holo Launcher

I could have added voice instructions ,but i dont have pc and i did not create this video for beginners and my computer is dead .

The app which i used did not allow me to record audio .any other way to create video with voice in phone only.i have many many profiles to share which are really realy helpful.

Eg: wake me up when train is going to reach my station so i can sleep in train daily.

Automatic call the contact from whatsapp with just bringing the phone near my ear

Inform my gf automatically when i am reached home

Turn brightness full and turn off data while watching videos and playing games

And many mNy more its countless

[Android Apps and Games] Jonnyredcorn:
So I've watched a few videos and read some of this thread and played around with tasker and I have a beginners understanding of it. I can make basic tasks and such. One question I do have is the following:

I have a profile set named "Home". It's set based on LOCATION which is 50m radius of my house. I have a few tasks set to happen when I'm "Home" or rather within that 50m radius. Now what I want is a "Not Home" profile. I want a set of tasks to perform when not in that 50m radius. For example, when I'm not in that 50m radius I want the task I made to restore my Security PIN to be restored(I have it cleared when I'm home via Secure Settings plugin). How can this be done?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] famewolf:
First off to save battery you'd do better to use "cell near" first since it uses least battery...then wifi near etc....gps is most battery intensive.....the next part is you have a home and a notathome task......the profile home calls task home and for it's EXIT TASK calls notathome......you don't HAVE to have an exit task as by default tasker will return the phone to the state it was in prior to when the profile was activated.....so by default if bluetooth was already on it will be left on....by making my own exit task I ensure that when I leave the house bluetooth is always turned off for example (home cordless phones link to cell).

The pin lock case is a VERY special case..you need to have both a Pinlock On and a Pinlock OFF PROFILE to avoid situations like someone finding your phone out somewhere and being able to bring it close to your house to disable the pinlock or the phone being turned off at home and taken out into public and then turned back on (pinlock would remain off if you didn't have 2 profiles)...also by default use the "require pinlock to be entered once" option. You should google on "pinlock tasker secure settings" as the profiles are available for download.
[Android Apps and Games] Dvash27:
Hi Jonnyredcorn

I recently figured out exactly what you're asking for. You can create this profile quite easily and it is damn useful. Pretty much you need to open Profile tab create new, then choose state, choose tasker option and there should be a tab saying "Profile active". click that and using the magnifying glass icon select your HOME profile, then below that tick invert. once you've done that go back and add the tasks you want your phone to do when you're not home. Hopefully that helps.
[Android Apps and Games] UnSkilleD:
hey ho..

i just installed a galaxy tab in my car for Spotify and Navigation use.

I use tasker to automatically connect to my car bluetooth if the car starts.

I now try to turn on the Screen when i push "Next" on my Bluetooth remote .

Spotify changes the track but the screen remains dark.

I tried tasker actions with screen on and popup texts and so on, but nothing helped.

It seems that the Tasker "Grab Button" events wont work with Spotify (in the foreground).

Any help here?

Hello everyone.

I'm looking forward to spend my money on one of thoses new Windows RT tablets,

I can't make up my mind on which one to buy [Microsoft Surface RT or ASUS VivoTab RT]. Plz let me know if these tablets are worth it or if i should go for an andriod tablet instead.

Looking forward to all your suggestions and personal experiences with any of those tablets.

Oh yeah, one more question. Can these Windows RT tablets be jailbroken/rooted?

Thank you guys.

The is a Jailbreak tool for Windows RT in this Forum ->http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2092158

It seems that the tool is running on both tablets. But there are some bugs on the Vivo Tab

I've used the vivo and the surface. the surface is thiner and more mobile. the vivo tab it bigger (with the dock) but the Keyboard is better.

i recomend the surface, but both are mutch better then andoid tablets

If you want to do more then just Surfing and looking Videos and playing games and actually work with the tablet, Windows rt is mutch better

oops. wrong thread.
[General Questions and Answers] Ry09iu:
maybe somebody know it
[General Questions and Answers] amertz:
If the built-in camera matters much to you, the Asus is probably better. I have a Surface RT, and its 1.0 megapixel cameras are nothing to write home about - most smartphone cameras easily surpass it, and if the Vivo's camera lives up to its 8 MP it'll probably blow the Surface away in that regard. The Surface also does not have NFC, although I honestly have yet to find a time when I'd actually need to use it.

Other than that, the Surface is a really good device and I've been satisfied with its performance so far. I'd recommend it (though I cannot speak for the Asus, which I have not actually tried).
[General Questions and Answers] someniceguy:
VivoTab

VivoTab for sure, if you need GPS (I do), better front and rear cameras (I do, the rear for "scanning"), need to use it (with the dock) on your lap (I do), or NFC (I don't). Otherwise, it's a toss up, but pick the Surface in you don't need any of the features mentioned.
[General Questions and Answers] lil_rain:
I think ill go for Asus Vivopad.. but on the other hand, Surface pro is coming out. How about I wait for that?
[General Questions and Answers] cs098:
don't, its $900 and has a worse battery life than most ultra books. Go for the asus. You are basically buying a laptop with the surface pro.

IMHO I think a android tablet with linux installed is much better than wp8, but that's my opinion.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zoq:
No.

I was in thailand and put phone in the safe while i went out for the night. In the morning I took it out to check something and noticed it was a different phone. Weird huh !!

Looks like someone had swapped mine with another white I9300. I can tell because the scratch marks on case are different and the SIM card holder has been changed with one that looks old. It was also installed with some paid apps which I never installed including Root Explorer - file manager.

The dates of all my files on the root are 01/01/1970.

Ok i've flashed back the stock ROM, unrooted it, rooted it and installed mike1986's custom ROM but still have the image.

For some reason after i booted up the language was in Russian but changed it back ok.

The CWM I have now (v 6.0.1.2) doesn't give a menu when you long press the power button.

3. reboot

Now the phone just turns off when I long press the power button.

Is this normal or should I have a menu?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaartenXDA:
First of all: E: stands for error, and I: and W:, I don't know, but the error isn't what causes the image.
