Import .xml into Tasker, but can't find t!!

OK, brain freeze :(

Copied text to text file, saved as a .xml, (check file extension in properties is .xml - OK)

Open Tasker, remove beginner UI to gain access to import. Go into import, but I cannot see any .xml, (well, any file to be truthful)

hayellp guru's, not sure what I am doing wrong.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
where did u save the file to??

put it in /storage/emulated/0/tasker/
[Android General] sparkz:
Hi m.a.s.e,

I have put it into the folder you have quoted, (along wth every other folder in Tasker) I can see the files from ES Explorer & from the pc. I have also tried it in the root of the sd card.

Should I be able to just import it on a blank install, as in I don't have to get an existing task/profile etc set up in Tasker.

TBH, I have just tried getting my head round manually creating the task, but blimey, don't think that will happen first time. Powerful bit of kit :)

I have uploaded it as a zip if anyone could check that it is the correct format

Cheers
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
ok.

attached the file here .

change the extension to xml and put it in here:
[Android General] sparkz:
Aha,

Cheers mister. I was missing the .prf part in the naming of the task.

Easy when you know how, which obviously I don't lol
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
No worries bro. thats why there are forums....
[Android General] leobg:
I think you're right. It doesn't pick appradio's mic, but phone's. So scratch that, no appradio mic and I don't think this is something that can be changed.

Hi

This is the best news for a long time, you are the master, cant wait to try the new release

Thanks once again

Basmand;):good::laugh:
[Android General] hoops129:
I kept the .prf and added .xml and I still can't see the file when I try to import. I only see folders inside the Tasker folder, but no files. I can see the files though from ES File Explorer. I must be doing something dumb as well.
[Android General] sparkz:
Hi,

Did you open it in notepad, go File - "Save As", call it "Appradio.prf,xml" then change the "Save as Type" to & All Files? Then drop it into the link m.a.s.e helped me with, being /storage/emulated/0/tasker/profiles

This is what sorted it for me with the help of m.a.s.e

Not sure if it helps you, just trying to give something back!!

GPS injector and NAV app

Anyone uses the old Navigation not the new maps for android? i recently purchased the GPS injector and tried it, what i notice is when i launch the navigation it still ask to enabled the GPS on my phone. is this a glitch and is there any fix? when i tried other apps such as waze or navfree it works fine it does not ask to enabled the GPS. i have Note 2 and still running the old google navigation app not the new google maps.

Thanks.

HDMI is Disconnected

I get a revolving HDMI is disconnected and then a few seconds later, HDMI is connected, this happens sporadically on the AppRadio3? Is this because of a bad HDMI cable? or a bad port? Any Help?
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
Sound like its a bad cable.

Have you tried connecting ur phone to ur TV to test if its ur phone port or cable?

it could be also ur HU is defected .

but i would start troubleshooting to find the source, this is def not how it should be of course.

connect the phone to one of ur TV's see if it happen again.

if it does replace the cable and so on until u find the root cause.

as to ur question, it is only u... so theres a specific issue in ur case.

Also, please mention the phone ur using and the cable / MHL u are using etc....

kinda hard troubleshooting blind :)
[Android General] mikemui:
Thanks for the heads up, never thought of trying to connect it to the TV, will try that tonight

Im using a Att Note 3 with a Samsung MHL adapter

I didnt use the overpriced Pioneer HDMI Cable, I just used any HDMI cable I had laying around the house, I thought it would be good enough.

Let me just say this though, besides the occassional HDMI disconnects ARUnchained ROCKS on the AppRadio3 with a Note3, blindingly fast

If this helps anyone else with a Note 3, I have noticed that the standard Touchwiz cuts off the top and bottom when mirrored, which is no big deal as I prefer Nova Launcher anyways, which doesnt cutoff.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
yeah def sounds like a cable HDMI adapter....

dont forget with samsung phone you MUST use the 5 to 11 pin adapter.... and MUST purchase original otherwise u will get snow....

AR3 is picky like that :)

Its stock ROM. i already did that but nothing changed. so today ...i dont know why ...the ARU connected to the radio and i could do the calibration on the radio but after that i wasnt able to use the touchscreen on the radio. I didnt change anything and i dont know why it connected.

And today i tried again. it only connects when i delete the data.but no touchscreen at all. and after delting data ...PREVENTION INFORMATIONS.. shows up :(
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
Silly question, and forgive me if you mentioned before. But are u rooted? have you verified root? have you tried installing the pioneer original app and see if it function as it should be? prior to trying ARU?
[Android General] Ratchet84:
220 2365859

yeah im rooted. root checker says yes and super su is givin permission if i start ARU. the original app isnt working. same cable same headunit just a samsung s3 and its working fine.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
if pioneer original app does not work as well, this is ur phone or HU issue, not ARU.

i dont think i follow this statement: "the original app isnt working. same cable same headunit just a samsung s3 and its working fine" do you mean that the original app doesnt work but when u had SG3 it did work?

if so, it means theres a definite issue with ur current phone as it works with other phones....

it does sound like a phone issue especially since u confirm the original approved app is not working.
[Android General] Ratchet84:
yeah you are right. the original app worked fine only 2 times out of 50 tries.

i tried another SG4 same software (MH9) which was not rooted and the original app didnt work.
[Android General] :
Good new!

I wait this update...:good:
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
are u able to simply connect ur phone to the HU via bluetooth and use A2DP?

what cables are u using with ur HU and phone?

is ur HU set to "others" in the connection menu?

were you ever able to test ur phone on a different appradio (if applicable, if u have a friend with appradio etc).

have u tested ur HDMI connection with a regular TV and HDMI cable along with the samsung 5 to 11 tip?
[Android General] Area51©:
Here is the fixed HDMI stick version: arunchained0.14StickFixed.apk

Tested it briefly as my HDMI stick again had bluetooth problems. Anyway, let me know if it works.
[Android General] Area51©:
Bad bluetooth connection behaviour is mostly rom related. ARU doesn't do much there it's mostly the phone and the AppRadio doing their stuff.

When calibration works and after that touch stops, it's mostly a bad root. Just know that for calibration the original app touch stuff is used. Right after calibration touch is injected on system level and that requires root. Some time ago there was a German guy that had a similar problem with a S4. He finally found a rom that was working for him. I think the S4 has SELinux which is by default set to Enforcing mode.

Search doesn't seem to work now but the guy's name is s0uli.

Found his post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46283181&postcount=547&nocache=1&z=5114284557278652 but it may be old news.

Im able to check the box but no option for "

Here is the screen shot you ask.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
Thank you for the screenshots.

once again, apologies if you answered this before.

whick OS version are you on? and what is the version of MAPS installed on ur device.

i am on 4.3.1 with maps version 7.4.0 and i have the ability to choose not to show this msg again.

Also, are u sure mock locations is set to "on" when you are connected and u verified the HU is showing GPS signal?

sorry for the tedious questions, this is part of troubleshooting :)
[Android General] kinetx:
Can some please help me?

I have a HTC One, rooted running the latest (Sense based) ROM/firmware available. I have issues where my phone's internal GPS does not lock on, or will take a very very long time to, and then stop shortly thereafter. I experience this both with or without Mock Locations enabled.

(I'm also requesting a new GPS unit from Pioneer to figure out if that's the problem)

Will purchasing the ARU GPS Injector app help solve this? Does the app itself 'facilitate' the GPS service, and then I can go on to use Google Maps for navigation and so forth?

Thanks in advance.

PS. I have an AppRadio2
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
ARU GPS will ONLY give u the ability to utilize ur car head unit GPS antenna instead of using the phone internal antenna.

if u are having issues with ur built in antenna i suggest seeking help in the ROM section of the ur specific phone sub forum in XDA. this thread is for the ARU and pioneer appradio only.

so to answer ur question, yes ARU GPS will let u use the car stereo GPS antenna instead of the phone so u can use navigation apps (only while in appmode).
[Android General] hoops129:
I think this may have been asked already, but I can't find it so I'll ask again. Is there any chance in a future update that the screen brightness on the HU can be set by the screen brightness on the phone? That would be a really nice feature in app mode. I find myself needing to adjust brightness all the time and using the settings menu is a bit tedious vs pulling down the notification drawer and having the slider right there.

BTW- is anyone successfully using the screen standby app to turn of their phone display?

[Android General] m.a.s.e:
If it will b set by the phone it will kill battery. Screen standby barely work on 4.3 that's why most of us set the brightness on our phones to minimum while in appmode. I found that if I set brightness set to 26 on the hu it was OK even in sunlight. Also I doubt aru will spend any time on this as it was mentioned before any type of modification on the hu will need to have the hu hacked and that's not an option right now.....
[Android General] basmand:
Hi

Did the install and first test, works perfect, no need for "RE calibration" No lack on Bluetooth, except after first boot, just did a reboot after that issue was solved

Basmand:good:
[Android General] Area51©:
Thanks, you are right. If it's not supported by the original AppRadio app and the HU firmware it can't be done. Doing any setting to the HU in AppRadio mode is not supported by Pioneer so I can't add it.
[Android General] kinetx:
Thanks mase.

[MENTION=5417637]Area51©[/MENTION] - the GPS Injection app has solved my issues - I can now successfully navigate whilst in the car! Best $8 I've spent in a long while.

Out of curiosity - why is this app even needed? Shouldn't enabling mock locations be enough - or am I not understanding how this developer option works?
[Android General] mykeli9s0:
Np. I forgot to add that info.

I have Note 2 SGH_1317M

Firmware 4.1.1

Map version is 6.10.0 (#6100020)

Also is there any way to disable the AR3 phone call interface(im talking about the box on the right side that pops up when you recv a call, instead the phone interface will show? )

Thanks for your time.

Mike
[Android General] Area51©:
I am sorry to say but it's the latter. Mock locations being switched on only allows injection of locations. The GPS Injector does the work of getting the GPS data from the AppRadio app and actually injecting it as mock locations. Technically it was also the most easy way to do it and it allows me to put it in the play store so I can become filthy rich by selling millions of copies;) Though that last part probably is only my daydream.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
simple solution to ur problem....

upgrade ur ROM, 4.1.1 is way far back. i believe that is why u dont see that option.... ur phone is rooted, simply go and try a different ROM. pref 4.3 (regardless ur revision is way to old). i strongly believe that will fix ur issue.

as to ur question, while in app mode or BT , no... the HU control that....

---------- Post added at 01:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 PM ----------

LOL!!!

dont become those Dev's that make some money and forget the minions LOL :)
[Android General] Area51©:
Don't worry. Realistically, I don't see millions of people rooting their phone to use this app. Don't think it will become mainstream.
[Android General] Area51©:
Hopefully that HDMI stick always requiring calibration issue is fixed now. The next thing I will be working on is the Kitkat issue of not being able to reach the whole screen.
[Android General] -=Jeff=-:
what version is that in? I have yet to get out in the garage to try the one I got from you last week (too Cold) if you have a newer version I might be able to try it out this weekend

Just found it in a post.. THANKS, I too will try to give it a try
[Android General] hoops129:
Can someone tell me what the HDMI stick does. I've seen it mentioned on and off throughout this thread. The only thing I know is that it's not required. But I'm interested to know what it is.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
http://www.laptopmag.com/android-sticks.aspx
[Android General] Area51©:
A HDMI stick is basically an android computer with no touch screen that has a hdmi output. Mostly it's used for connecting to a tv as a media player. Of course it can also be used to connect it to an AppRadio so you don't have to use your phone. Though it seems a good idea there's unfortunately many issues to be solved.
[Android General] hoops129:
I see. On to another topic, is anyone leaving ARU running in the background while not in the car? Is there an issue with doing that? It seems like we can just keep it on and then we don't have to bother with turning it on when we get in the car and turning it off when we get out. While tasker sounds like a good idea for that, I haven't been able to get it to connect reliably.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
we close ARU because some of us want to use A2DP BT audio streaming without connecting the phone for mirroring and not being forced to landscape.... Tasker latest version have HDMI detection in it. i have added a few posts back the tasker profile to import to ur tasker for easier usage.

this question was answered many times before (not trying to be an a$$, really :) its all good :) ) but it was answered more then 10 times :)
[Android General] hoops129:
What question has been answered many times? The only question I had was about closing ARU. I was simply stating I'm having trouble with Tasker. And I have tried to import the profile, but I can't get it working. So I was thinking I could just leave ARU running and then I don't need to worry about tasker.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
like i said, if u leave ARU open if you have the AppRadio 3 u will have issues (annoyment more then an actual issue) when u will want to listen to A2DP. if u got appradio 2 its not an issue to u.

and i was referring to tasker. instructions and description on how to make it work. i also stated in my post that i wasnt trying to be an ass or attack. i even wrote "were all good". remember, words on a forum do not have tonation. All i am trying to say is hopefully others can use the search feature, most likely their questions were already answered.

that being said, u can use the tasker xml posted a few posts back and import directly to ur tasker (make sure ur on the latest version) and it will work for u.
[Android General] hoops129:
I have no issues with anything you said, I was just trying to clarify my post. As far as tasker goes, I have the xml file (Appradio.prf.xml) in my Tasker foler under profiles. But when I try to import it from Tasker, I do not see any files. I can navigate to the profiles folder, but nothing appears in it. I can see it fine using any file explorer app.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
which version of tasker are u running?
[Android General] bodieism:
Mine is setup that way. I always leave ARU running in the background and I have the AR3. I disabled the built in rotation locker in ARU so that my phone stays in portrait mode for when I'm just running A2DP. I have Tasker and Rotation Locker setup to force landscape when HDMI/MHL is connected.
[Android General] hoops129:
How do I check? I don't even see an "about" menu option.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
On your home screen menu button manege apps locate tasker the version will be written there
[Android General] quinting:
How do you disabled the rotation locker in ARU? I have looked for that setting, but haven't been able to find it :)
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
Connect the cable let the app radio interface come up and then hit the menu button on the phone it'll bring up at Heaton menu when you have settings for appradioapp
[Android General] quinting:
LOL it's OK to dream ;)
[Android General] Area51©:
Note that with ARU 0.14 if you disable rotation locker, automatic start of GPS service is also disabled.
[Android General] quinting:
That explains why I haven't found it :) I have not looked there :)

Thanks!

---------- Post added at 12:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 PM ----------

Ahhh..OK, maybe then I'll just leave it...doesn't really bother me, except for the odd time that I need to adjust something on my phone before sticking it in the car, and the whole screen is rotated...it's livable though :)
[Android General] Area51©:
For next release I might change it. For now I just put those 2 together, didn't think about it too much.
[Android General] quinting:
Probably from a "best practices" standpoint they should be separated, but it really isn't a big deal to me...I was more or less just wondering :)

Again, thanks so much for all your work on this...I've been silent for the past week or so, and that is only because I bought my wife a new truck, and have been back and forth to the dealer getting some options installed, so haven't been in my car much. I have my car today, and again, everything is working great, except I seem to have to manually start the GPS injector service, then it hangs, then I start it again, and it works...sometimes it starts on its own, but mostly not...this is minor, as I just have an icon for it on my home screen - it's quick and easy to get working.

Again, both m.a.s.e., and Area51, your efforts are greatly appreciated!
[Android General] Area51©:
Well, it should always start. If it stops (for whatever reason) it will automatically restart after 5 seconds. Next time that you see it stopped, can you wait for 5 seconds and see if it starts again?

Thanks.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
Thank you:)
[Android General] Ratchet84:
i can connect it via bluetooth without probelms. i can also use the phone calls via the HU.

im using this cable http://www.ebay.de/itm/like/2513737...iewItemDictionary.ENABLE_PAYMENTS_IN_HLP:true

no its not set to others? where can i find it? i tried to go to settings and bluetooth but im not able to open it.

no there is no one around with an appradio. i just tried another s4 with the same software(MH9) .(not rooted and not working) and one s3 which connects excellent to the origial appradio app.

yep i tested it on my tv and its working. i can dublicate the screen on the HU too. my problem is just the BT connection and the touchscreen.

---------- Post added at 09:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 PM ----------

Thanks for that. i checked his posts and wrote him a PM. Hope he can help.
[Android General] quinting:
Will do. I also think that I have figured out that if I wait a few seconds before plugging in my MHL cable that it seems to work more consistently...i.e. once ARU is connected, and GPS injector started, then plug in MHL. It seems that if I plug in MHL before the GPS injector starts, that it has trouble starting, as long as I let it connect first, it seems to work...

Next time I notice it not connecting, I'll give it 5 seconds.

This is a nexus 5 on a AR2 running ARLiberator. Sadly my AR3/N5 combo suffer from the already reported screen calibration issue. Then again, ARL doesn't even work on AR3. So at least you've made some progress, so thank you for that.
[Android General] lpasq:
I have been using N5 for weeks with ARU on AR3. Outstanding combo. The navigation bar issue is on the developer's to-do list. By using Apex Launcher gestures, I have recent apps by double tap. Home and back through hard keys on HU. The screen touches being off a bit is the temporary price I pay. The phone connects to HU 100% of the time and everything works great. GPS also consistent. ARL was a finicky app. Welcome.

What slimport adapter did you use? I can't get the snow to go away. I have the analogix and cable matters and both have snow. The analogix less but still there. I'm currently using the ptv3000 but even that has issues with it skipping but no snow. Thanks for the help
[Android General] er0k:
I have this slimport adapter from amazon. Only saw snow once ever and that was while shaking it violently to test it . For what its worth the model number is different. SP1003

B00DWGB6CU (search that product number I don't have enough posts to post links yet)

I have an issue with ARU GPS injector. I made it a system app with Titanium Backup and it starts when ARU connects and receives data but it says mock disabled. I thought making it a system app would enable it to turn on mock locations on its own? I have to enable it manually and restart the ARU GPS injector and it will say connected. I am using a Nexus 5 with Cataclysm Rom and Faux Kernel. Thanks.
[Android General] evillela2001:
That's the same one I got. This is so frustrating. At least when I had my GS3 with the official mhl adapter there was no snow. Thanks
[Android General] er0k:
Interesting. I had more snow with my GS3 using the official mhl adapter from best buy vs the slimport with my nexus 5.
[Android General] lpasq:
I use the Analogix SP1002 and a standard, off the shelf, HDMI cable. I have an Analogix SP1003 to use once the SP1002 goes bad on me. I have burned through two on the last year on the old AR2 when running ARL. When they start to go bad I would see some flickering and then, in time, would get intermittent snow...then black screen. I think I kill them by mangling/twisting the thin and short micro USB wire that connect the phone and SlimPort. I also might have cooked them running 1.2mA 5v power direct from 12v source. I have been told the SP1002 passes a max of 500mA and the newer SP1003 passes twice the charging current.
