ok great! ill keep posting profiles. Ill post the XML files for you to import too then, I hope there wont be any compatibility problems!

im trying to figure out a better way to be able to semi-toggle between two roms with tasker, i have a way, and it works, but i want a faster, less convoluted way to implement it. Its a little pop up box that has a button asking if you want to swtich roms. kinda cool. I got the inspiration from monaco's google-play edition/stock rom toggle thing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
Dude you seem like you are going to be a great asset to this community! Thanks for all you've done so far and all you plan to do!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
Hey thanks bud! Yeah I plan on it. Always learning though :) I'll post the tasker profile along with the necessary dependencies once I figure it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] GTurn:
Thanks for the thread. I am working on the car mode now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
Awesome, if you guys have any requests I'll be more than happy to help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] statustray:
I have Tasker installed on my phone. I tried to use it a time or two but to no avail. So, I "froze" it in Titanium as I purchased the software. A tutorial or two would be nice- not saying for you to do so. It is obvious to me though that you really have a great understanding of Tasker. I just wanted to chime in on this thread to give you a huge *Kudos* ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] harajyuks:
Do you think you could do screen casts video walk through of your set ups?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] statustray:
I really like that idea. Maybe a YouTube video or two could work as well. No pressure, just saying :)

Do you guys realize how much effort he has put into just what he has already done. I would rather him spend the time that he would be doing that transcribing more profiles for us. I appreciate anyone who shares profiles with us the way that he is doing in this thread. if you don't know where to get started or how to do what he is saying to do don't be afraid to ask. when these guys post these projects they have to assume that the Reader knows the very basics of tasker like setting up tasker so you can build projects and how to set up profiles and tasks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] statustray:
I am lost in the park. Can you or someone point me in the right direction to setup Tasker with the latest build? I have gone to their website but to be honest that route was a no go for me.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] GTurn:
nevermind. does your tasker look like this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] GTurn:
i looked at every tasker thread on here and two other forums and didnt find a "basics" tutorial. I may do one. i am thinking about using these profiles and doing a step by step tutorial if its ok with eboody.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joshm.1219:
You can do that with automate it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] GTurn:
the problem with that is beginners dont even know how to do that. sometimes easier is not better. i know this the hard way. it seems like every time i download someones project i always change something in it. sometimes a lot. if people only learn how to download profiles than they will never be able to unlock the full potential of the app.

---------- Post added at 04:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 AM ----------

another thing is. when someone makes a thread like this they do it because they enjoy the process of doing it and sharing their knowledge with the community. what fun would it be to just post a few xml files. anyone can do that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] crl95:
how do u make it so there are multiple events that have to take place to trigger a action... i can never figure that out. Thanks a lot!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
Hey guys, sorry I'll be with my girlfriend for the weekend, but I'll be back in full swing when the week starts. Ill be posting the xml files but like gturn says the best way to learn is to, at the very least try to understand. I'll rewrite the projects I have to make it more New person friendly. I don't mind making videos but I think I'll start doing that kind of thing a bit later..I have the first iteration of my Rom Toggler working great. I just want to make it more complete before I post the project, but it's pretty cool switching between two roms.

I actually bought my girlfriend a note 2 and got her off that Damn iPhone haha.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
Well there are a couple of ways. One, after you have the first context set up, if you long press on it (not the action, but the context ie. open app, time of day, etc) then a little menu opens up asking if you want to add another condition that needs to happen in order to trigger the action.

Alternately, you can have several profiles, and add the state->variable value -> %PACTIVE ~ *[insert profile name here]*

using the same method of adding a context as i mentioned above.

this makes it so that, among other contexts you might want to add, if this profile is active, do this action. does that help?

heres a PM that rohankumar sent me asking a question about the SEARCHWIFI variable, i replied by trying to explain the concept of using arbitrary variable values to restrict or trigger an action. much like what i explained above.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
So the thing ive been working on works pretty well.

It lets you toggle between two nandroid backups pretty quickly. My question to you guys is this:

Do you guys store your nandroid backups on your internal storage or external storage?

and if you store it in your extSdCard, do you care if it takes longer to back it up?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] GTurn:
I keep my backups on the external storage and no I wouldn't care
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] crl95:
Thanks a lot I get it now

read this article and if you still need help setting these profiles up let us know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
you guys arent going to believe what happened...Ive been working on the nandroid toggler thing, and i, as a part of the backup process, made it so that it also backs up tasker. And so i started fresh with two fresh installations of CM10.1 and CleanRom3.5 to make sure i could import the XML file that i made so i can simulate a new person going through the process and i started wit ha fresh tasker installation too, as in an empty tasker, and it made a backup over my original....so now i lost all my profiles and i have to start over...how ****ty!! Anyways the rom toggler is working nicely, and im going to post it very soon. Needless to say i took out the tasker backup part of it....blech...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joshm.1219:
OMG so sorry man.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:

Have you ever done much with autovoice for tasker? I just discovered it and need some ideas! Again thanks for taking the time to post these setups!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
Yeah I had a bunch of stuff but I accidentally erased all my tasker profiles :( someone asked me to make a profile for receiving texts in the car, it's under the requests project.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] GTurn:
Here is a project to keep that from happening again. you need the dropbox and the dropsync app. if anyone needs help setting it up let me know.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
Lol I have several backups set now, to like 4 cloud services.. but thanks!

What had happened was that I made tasker back itself up and when I was testing the Rom toggle thing it had backed up over itself. But I learned from that mistake!

[MENTION=5025528]eBoody[/MENTION]

Any chance you could edit the OP to make it a bit more noob friendly? I only ask cause I'm still struggling..

Also do you have a profile which manages the sync of accounts periodically? So that it saves a bit of battery, rather than having it on the entire day..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
I'm actually very busy very recently and I've been having a hard time being active on xda so I don't think I'll have time to edit the entire op, but I will add the profile you request!

Thank you!

Apart from searching and recording the signal towers in my vicinity, is there anything else I'll need to edit in the profiles?

Great thread, I think I'm going to get back into using Tasker
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sky high:
I really like this thread and your profiles. I was wondering it is normal to have a negative hour for the parked at time if you haven't used car mode in a while. Idk why but the hours parked variable doesn't update
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
That's pretty bizarre...all it does is start adding numbers when it recognizes you're out of the car, it should never get to a negative number...how long have you not triggered the exit task?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lukazaz:
Hi can some one help me with a "task"

this is the condition I'm trying to make

If 350 minutes of total outgoing calls have been made (excluding 5 different numbers) the dial app/apk is disabled

but if a sms with the text "line open" is received then this limit is removed

this 350 minute would be per month so the task would have to count since day 1 till day 30/31 of that month to count the minutes and limit the call
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
Ah...I started school a bit ago and work and ive been swamped...and after i used tasker to automate the destruction of all my tasker backups like an idiot, i havent had the chance to set them all back up again...hehe. Ill do it again soon! it wont take me long.

Im sure you can do this yourself. The process will familiarize yourself with how to get small tasks like this set up, and thats really the goal when youre first figuring things out. There are several ways of doing this. LEt me help you out though.

1. There is a condition "in call". use that condition to set a variable called "%START" and set it to %TIME.

2. then upon exiting that task, set a variable called %TOTAL and set it to (%TIME - %START)

This subtracts the current time from when you started to give you a total of time talked.

3. make another task, upon the state that the variable %TOTAL is equal to 350, disable the phone.apk (plugin/secure settings/package state/freeze)

4. then make a task that checks what day it is, using one of taskers built in variables, i think its %TIMED, if im not mistaken...or just make a task that counts days, by making a task that every 24 hours, it goes up a number..obviously youll have to play with this to get it to iterate correctly on different months. etc etc.

Nice of you to remember. Waiting patiently!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shamestick:
Guys I have an idea for a profile, but it involves a lot with key guard and secure settings (at least that is what I was trying). I have the face unlock screen setting on and I was thiking I could make a profile where it would change to just a pattern unlock from around 8pm to 6am or something because it's usually darker so the face unlock is much less accurate, then at 6 it would turn face unlock back on. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
Yeah man, this is really easy to implement, are you having trouble?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shamestick:
Yeah, I can't figure out how to toggle between the two types of lockscreens, just between the face unlock and no lock
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sir Paul:
First and foremost, thank you for submitting your Tasker profile creations to this site. I am having trouble with your Car Mode, Timesince1 and Timesince2 profiles. I followed your profile instructions to create the Parked At/Parked For widget, but for some reason, my Parked At time is military and my Parked For time refuses to update the hour (e.x. 0 Hrs. 65 Mins.). Also, would you be willing to share what color, font and size you used in Minimalist Text for this screenshot? Any insight would be greatly appreciated and thanks again for your contributions.

Edit: I seemed to have figured out the problem that I was having with military time. The Parked At time is displaying a 0 for 12, which I assume is normal according to your code.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
Thats right, having it in military time is the way tasker handles its time. I PMed my response to your PM, so check that.

I imported the font Helvetica Neue to minimalistic text. you can download it through google and import it through the MM preferences.

as for the size i used 18's and 22's if im not mistaken. but you can always play around with MM to make it look however you want.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tk161900:
This One

I would like to do one where Tasker knows that I've connected to the wifi at my parents house and then when I connect to the wifi at my house it will send them a text message telling them that I have arrived. It would have to know that I came from that location though. So like maybe put a wait task in for an hour delay or something. IDK. I just can't figure it out. I'm pretty handy at C Programming. I feel kinda dumb that I can't figure this out. Anybody have any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ahighfield:
I would set a variable, say %ParentWifi to 0 when connect to their WiFi, then when you disconnect/leave the variable sets to 1. Then when you get home run your profile where you are at home/connect to home WiFi and %ParentWifi is 1. It should then probably have an exit or action to return the variable to 0 again.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ace_apr27:
Okay so here's a noob request. I tried reading through to figure out how to do this but I couldn't wrap my head around it. Here's what I want to do.

I'm using a OnePlus One. The charging cable is oh so short. When the wall socket is far, I tend to use my phone (while plugged in) rotated 180°. This is so that the charging cable isn't stretched.

When I flip the phone 180°, I'd like tasker to disable the capacitative buttons and enable the onscreen nav bar. Is this possible?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnMather:
Don't know if anyone will be able to help on this one but its worth a shot.I am thinking about buying this app but.....

This app is incompatible with your device.

CTM Samsung GT-N7100

Is there a way that I could get it to work do you think before I possibly waste my money, or is it just a risk I am going to have to take?

I live in Macau and this is where I bought my handset. Now the play store over here is absolutely ridiculous, pretty much ever app I try to download says incompatible or not available in your country. (Which is stupid because there are people walking around in angry birds everything, and i cant even download that!!!) The only apps i can download are free apps that are littered with ads and are of course all in Chinese. Now i have tried installing the cracked app store ( spent about a full day trying that) That made no difference either.

I just want to know if there is going to be a way around it if i buy it?

Cheers guys n gals

(Also running on jelly bean, and I can't remember what ROM I used any way to find out? As you can tell I'm very new to this, only recently swapped from an Iphone :eek: am I allowed to use that word on here haha)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prabukannappan:
No, Don't buy it. Even if you buy it won't work.

One option is, though not ethically correct is to download the apk file from any torrent or other sites.

Second option is to keep trying for any market MODs which will allow to use app store normally.

Are you sure that most of the apps are not available in your region? Make sure of that since it could also be some problem with the ROM or cracked app store problems.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnMather:
Yeh this country is just messed up. The reason I tried a custom ROM/Cracked app store is because I could barely get any apps that worked here on the stock phone. I tried about 4 or 5 Different cracked play stores and methods to try and get it working but to no avail. I have the little smiley face play store so I know its installed but still always get that error message. The only way I have found around it so far is using something like Hideman to trick the phone to thinking its in the UK or US but this just means that I get very slow downloads etc.

[HTC One Mini] cjogloc123:
Although there hasn't been any official announcement of the HTC One Mini, we all know that it is coming, and we know a fair bit about the device. Although, there really isn't a whole lot to know. The device is going to be an HTC One... mini. Still, we've got some leaked pics of the AT&T version of the device, and surprise surprise, it looks like a smaller HTC One.

Luckily, whoever has their hands on the device knew enough to take pics of info screens, so we know that the device has a dual-core QualcommCPU with an Adreno 305 GPU (aka a Snapdragon 400), 1GB of RAM (although previous pics have said 2GB), 16GB of internal storage (with about 11GB free), Android 4.2 with Sense 5, and LTE. We've learned before that the HTC One Mini will have a 4.3" 720p display, although that's not listed in the images here.

We already knew that the HTC One Mini is coming to AT&T, and that's the branding on these pics.

Storage size is really pushing it. But that is a fun looking mid-ranger. Give it a solid kernel with s2w and l2m, I wouldn't mind it as a backup phone.
[HTC One Mini] BarryH_GEG:
Kind of like the BMW 1-series looks like a smaller 5-series. ;) The One's a beautifully crafted phone made with high-end materials. The Mini's a "phone." I can see the design of the One swaying people toward HTC, not so much with the Mini. Its design isn't special but it’s unique because of the dual frontal speakers and UltraPixels. We'll see how it does. The SGS3 Mini has been out for eight months and you hardly ever hear it mentioned anywhere. Its general forum has 143 threads; this one after just four months has 1,091. At least on XDA, mini phones with mini specs don't create a lot of buzz.

Dear All

I just purchased O2 XDa IIi in UK, when I use wifi at the 1st time, it is good, but suddently it stop and now can not detect the wifi signal at wifi-cafe while other people around me still use it good.

Try hardreset but the problem still persist.

Is the device at faulty? how to solve this

Best regards

Tuan
[Networking] bryson:
are you sure you are not connected? when the xda2i detects a network it recognises, it will not launch the screen that gives you the option to connect to that network, it will just automatically try to connect.

I suggest that next time you are in the cafe, turn on tour wifi, and launch internet explorer, and see what happens. If the wifi cafe needs vouchers to access then the browser will ask you for details, which means you are on line.

Alternativley, go to a new wifi hotspot location and try there and see if the xda2i prompts you to connect to that new network.

Good Luck!
[Networking] nmt1978:
Hi

Thank for your reply

The device do not recogize wifi, i try nearly ten hotspot locations but results are the same.

Do you suggest any advice? i think the device may be faulty due to hardware problem

Best regards

[Networking] bryson:
damn, sounds like it could be a hardware issue, I have heard other forum users complaints about wifi going wrong, other than sending it back for a replacement, I am stumped. Sorry. :cry:
[Networking] DAustin:
I’v hade the same problem.

When I first received my device wifi was really good, within a week if could not even detect a network.

It started with the unreliable data transfer but still having a good signal strength,

to no data transfer but still with good signal strength,

to no signal / no network connection. No network detection

o2 replaced my device but the new one is still a little poor & slow picking up networks and sometimes never detects networks. Far form what the xdaIIi was like first time I tried it.

regards
[Networking] nmt1978:
Exactly the same problem like me

I am very disappointed with O2 XDA IIi. how the manufacture can launch such a product

Unfortunately i am in Vietnam now so i can not send the device back to O2 UK for replacement

Any one have suggestion

Regards

Tuan
[Networking] Southern_Man:
At the risk of being shot down, have you tried your IIi at another location. There is every chance the hotspot you're using is degrading rather than IIi!

Is it hot there right now? (sorry for being ignorant!). Condensation can form inside the aerials, and water is a killer for radio coverage. Perhaps put it somewhere dry for a few hours to absorb the moisture?
