I used this L sience 5 months.you must have firmware problem reinstall using SUS or flashtool.only MP4 is supported to stock player but for MX it will play almost codes of 720p witout any lag.

please press thanks if it helped
[Sony Xperia L] alishandhanani:
And can you please tell me how to reinstall the firmware? and what is SUS or Flashtool? I'm really very new to all this stuff. Please help me bro.
[Sony Xperia L] mitulvohra:
thats ordinary, just click on moves file anyway.
[Sony Xperia L] alishandhanani:
That does not work. When I do the "moving files anyway" option, then those videos plays with extremely lag in MX Player (without conversion, those videos plays in S/W mode in MX player, instead in HW, HW+, and that's why it lags). And the stock player also fails to run such files.
[Sony Xperia L] mitulvohra:
that is strange. i guess you will have to reset your phone and install the firmware again
[Sony Xperia L] subha7082:
You have to download sus from sony website and reset firmware,and I greented that this trick works.and in which phones stock player not work no other player works on that,i played 1080p using mx and played smoothly but give a quality more bad than 360p. You have to reset your firmware only this is real solution.
[Sony Xperia L] neville20_dabreo:
Mate! First of all you need to Change the usb connection option from the settings so that you will not get the conversion option and it will not take much time.and then you need to install a player that is able to play all formats.the stock does not play all. It only plays mp4.

To change the option in settings go to settings>>xperia>>connectivity>>sub connection mode and select the 2nd option that is mass storage where only your sd card will be mounted to the computer in a normal way.

It's no sub it's usb
[Sony Xperia L] alishandhanani:
Bro, I have already tried "moving files anyway" and then tried to play those files using MX player(which is known for it's best compatibility on android) but then got unsatisfied results. The MX player was able to play those files, but in SW+ Mode with extreme lags. :(

So that's why I don't think your solution would work, can you suggest me any other better solution?
[Sony Xperia L] alishandhanani:
But bro I have read that updating the firmware with SUS will erase my all data and my phone will be just like a newly brought. I don't want to do that.. is there any other solution? :(
[Sony Xperia L] subha7082:
backup data using your restore and backup,and sms back up from a play store sms back up application,then do it, or download latest firmware from Xperiafirmware.com and flash it via flash tool and exclude data while flashing.hit thanks if its help you
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFishmonger:
Well I went and got one after much deliberation. Very pleased as I am with it but I have a few questions.

On my galaxy s2 when I had a text message through it would tell me who the message was from in my notifications but this phone only says a new message.

Also on my lock screen it informs me of a message but I can't just swipe to go to it
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
They made it a setting. Go to Messages --> Settings --> More and check Preview Message.

On the lockscreen, tap it and swipe in the white popup box.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFishmonger:
Thanks. It was really annoying not knowing who the message was off before reading
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFishmonger:
I can't see where I swipe the message to on the lock screen? I don't have a white box
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFishmonger:
I've another question about the charger supplied with the phone. Does it charge quicker with the usb 3 connector rather than a standard micro usb?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFishmonger:
Anyone?

This is the official thread for the Condi app. Please post your feedback here and I'll do my best to reply.

Condi (was previously listed as Mini Tasker but pent asked us to change the name) is an automation tool for Android 4.0 or higher. It's completely free. It's our first attempt at android programming for a university project we just submitted.

There are many other automation tools, many of them had time to mature, most of them have better support for older devices and some are just irreplaceable, but, having said that, most of them are really hard to operate. If you tried it you know what i'm talking about.

With Condi you can setup most action+condition pair in 6 clicks or less. You don't have to pick names, write down descriptions, you don't need to approximate the radius of your house, set up variables, put up web sites, join a social network and all these other weird requirements other apps force you to do. You get a simplistic experience, the kind you can share with the less technical friends.

Talk about sharing, did you know you can share any set of tasks just by selecting them on the main screen, and clicking share from the menu? Your friend can open the generated link with his Condi app and import the tasks instantly.

We got some amazing reviews from people, and we're gonna work real hard to live up to the expectations. We had to take a short break after 0.2.13 but we're back in business. If you don't mind a lot of consecutive upgrades, and care to send us vital feedback before we push out to the thousands of users we have - please join our beta channel: (subscribe to this group) https://groups.google.com/d/forum/minitasker

You can download the app from the Play Store here.

There's a cool video demo here (thanks Dan Graziano): http://cnet.co/1eXYCqx

Thanks,

FAQ

Location Based Condition misconceptions

* It does not drain battery - google probes your location regardless of our app so it adds almost no extra drain or overhead.

* It doesn't turn on GPS - but will use it if it's on by another app.

* It doesn't have good accuracy, if you turn off wifi and mobile data it will suck.

* We use Google Play Services' fused location provider with low power sensors preference.

* The condition doesn't start unless the phone is sure you are completely inside the blue circle.

* Choose a bigger radius by pinch-to-zoom-out on the map and click again.

Mixing Conditions

* A task with multiple conditions starts when all are true

* A task ends when a single condition is no longer true

* If you want "OR" relationship between conditions, you need to have 2 tasks. Just use the duplicate button.

* To avoid confusion, starting 0.3.0 you can see and remove the "end" task.

* If multiple actions of the same kind overlap, the automatic end-action is only executed for the last one. If you set your phone to silence at 16:00-18:00 and to max volume when you plug in headphones (2 separate tasks), if you plug in at 16:30 - you're volume will be set to max, but if you unplug at 17:30 the volume will be restored only at 18:00. You can set time to be a "start-only" event, i.e. to add 2 tasks with 2 "start-only" times, this way you won't get an overlap. I am open to suggestions on how to improve this.

Feature Requests

* 3g-4g-2g toggle action (scheduled for 0.3.5)

* Screen lock toggle (scheduled for 0.4.0)

* Hotspot toggle (done)

* WiFi near (scheduled for 0.3.5)

* Bluetooth connected (scheduled for 0.3.5)

Price / Privacy / Tracking

* Is it free? Yes.

* Do you have ads? No.

* Do you track users? No.

* Why is it free? It's a university project, we got an academic grade for this. If you want to say thanks you can put a 5 star review.

* What's the statistics thing on the settings window? We store our own process wake ups but this is only sent if you turn the settings option on.

* Can I have the source code? It will be uploaded to a git repo soon.

* Will there be a premium version? We're gonna keep the client free. We might allow purchasing a server side always-on notification back-end but we will allow you to set up your own server (for free) if you wish.

Misc

* Michal is a girl :)

[Android Apps and Games] nero:
Hi,

I'm using Condi (Mini Tasker) for about one month. I don't know if this is the correct communication channel to report this but here I go... :)

One of the things that is annoying me is the fact that the actions are repeating themselves over and over again.

Let me explain with an example that I have.

I have one task to turn on bluetooth every time I'm driving my car. The problem is that when I stop in traffic, at a stop sign or at a red light semaphore, the bluetooth radio turns off, I believe because the conditions (driving) is not fulfilled. I have already been disconnected while in a call... :(

The thing is that I don't want the bluetooth turned off, I think If I wanted to turn bluetooth off I should have created one other task to turn bluetooth off when standing still.

I think that wold be a good improvement if you can configure the task as "fire and forget", i.e., monitor the condition only when the action is not set.

Another improvement wold be to make a bluetooth device connection/disconnection based action.

I hope to see good news in the next updates :)

thank you and thanks for this great app :)

Nero

Good stuff. Appreciate your work. Request: ability to toggle screen lock. When I'm sitting at home, no need to lock screen. When I go to work, no way am I gonna trust those jokers with an unlocked phone! :)

[Android Apps and Games] russell664:
This seems a great project, I'll follow this closely aswell, seems very beneficial in itself. Keep up the great work. When I have some spare time I'll give it a try.
[Android Apps and Games] NormMonkey:
It would be great to let any condition that is currently start/end be start-only. It would also be nice to be able to set a different end action for start/end conditions, e.g. "when driving begins, enable bluetooth; when driving ends, notification pop-up "done driving -- disable bluetooth" so that if you happen to be on a call when your driving ends you aren't disconnected, but you still get the reminder.

Nero, for the time being there is a global condition-end-delay which you could increase to help with this. I think the default is 30s, but if you bumped it to 4 minutes that should outlast any red lights.

---------- Post added at 09:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:09 AM ----------

If a task has multiple conditions, does the task end when ANY condition ends or when they ALL end?

For example, if task is "set ringer and notification to vibrate when time is 22:00-09:00 and AC charger connected", what happens:

(*) If the charger is disconnected at 08:30?

(*) If the time is 09:01 but the phone is still connected?

Another example: if Nero made his condition "turn bluetooth on when driving and AC charger connected", and he happens to be talking on the phone at a long stop light, will his call be disconnected if he's not driving but the charger is still connected?

In the first example, the desired end-task is that the end of ANY condition ends the task. If I get up and take my phone off the bedside charger at 08:30 it should go off vibrate mode. If I sleep late and my boss calls at 09:02 asking why I'm not at work, the phone should ring even though it's still plugged in.

In the second example, the desired end-task is that the end of ALL conditions end the task. If Nero is on the phone at a stop light, he should not be disconnected.

Final thought: if you're on a call and bluetooth is disconnected, the call is still connected and goes to handset, right? So if you're on the phone with a client and you pull into the driveway, unplug your phone and walk away from the car, you continue talking to your client on your handset?
[Android Apps and Games] nero:
I tried that already (with 300ms/5mins) but I think is not a good approach because the phone eventually gets disconnected (stop in 2 or more signs in the time it is checking the condition again) and it is also needed more time to connect :(

I think it ends only when all conditions meet (Anton - the developer - can confirm).

That could work but I rarely connect the phone to the charger while driving...

Instead I would preferred to have conditions based on bluetooth connected devices, i.e., car BT system. Then when I turn car off, car's BT system also off -> phone disconnect => phone's bluetooth off

yes, the call continues at the handset but I have to pick it up and place it in my hear... and talk on the phone while driving is not a good idea and could cost me a lot of money if caught by the police!

Thank for your comments.
[Android Apps and Games] phntm:
Task ends when a single condition is no longer true (i.e. one false and the rest are true is enough to trigger an end).

for example, if you have 2 conditions (time and headset plugged) task ends when you either unplug or time runs out, one is enough to end it.

Activity recognition is a special case, it starts like all other tasks (when google play services reaches confidence level of 66% for the first time), but it ends after a delay. We start counting from the first time the condition no longer holds with confidence of 66% (default is 30 seconds, you can change that in the settings). If during this time google play services detect another activity - the timer resets, so theoretically, this condition ends if your phone is safely on your desk.

Now I understand people still have issues with the activity recognition, and it's likely due to different phone sensors, and maybe even different versions of google play services. Not much I can do about it, it's pretty much a black box.

Now, if you see for some reason, the delay is not holding (i.e. you set it to 600 seconds and condition ends while your car sits idle for less then 5 minutes) please let me know.

If this doesn't work for you, try the conventional conditions (dock, headset, charger, inverse location combination).

about the lock screen, this will require root, i'll play around with this soon.

i'm planning to release a new beta version shortly, i've finally managed to make the wifi condition work like intended, and there's a new "when-app-launched" condition thingy (uses the new shortcut permission).

thanks for the feedback, I do try to keep up with all the suggestions, I have quite the backlog already.

Anton.

Data Bug

Hi,

Just wanted to report a minor bug I have been experiencing since the update prior to the most recent. I had set Condi to turn off WiFi at 8:09 am and turn data on at 8:10 am. Before that update, things have been working fine. Since that update; however, WiFi turns off but data does not turn on.

I have a Motorola XT-1030 DROID Mini if that helps.

v0.2.15 beta

just released a new version to the beta channel (you need to subscribe to this group https://groups.google.com/d/forum/minitasker then go to this link https://play.google.com/apps/testing/il.co.kix.minitasker)

you can try out the new wifi connected condition and the app-launched condition.

wifi connected is long overdue, please tell me if it works as intended.

app-launched is a bit more interesting, it doesn't really monitor for running apps, it creates a "fake" shortcut for an app, that actually runs condi which in turns runs a task. tell me if you like the idea and if it works adequately. it's new so there may be issues i overlooked.

thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] phntm:
sorry for the bump, but would really appreciate some feedback on the new beta.

is it good enough to release? any suggestions?

thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] raul6:
I didn't spot anything broken. Is there a chance of reducing/choosing range for location from 75m?
[Android Apps and Games] phntm:
I obviously can, but it will probably not work.

The condition only triggers when google play services is 100% sure the device is inside. Since we only use low power sensors it probably will never trigger.

The limit was mainly to avoid comments like "it never works".

I can add a setting if you want, but, this just won't trigger unless you have a navigation app in the background that has gps running.
[Android Apps and Games] raul6:
Thank you for explaining and offering but better use your time for implementing features that work.
[Android Apps and Games] unsivil_audio:
Have you considered a backup/restore option for rules? Or perhaps even a sharing option? (to share rules you've created with your friends who use Condi) I personally love the simplicity of this app. It just works. Many kudos to you and your team.

HTC Evo 4g LTE

Hello great app! I'm trying to use Condi to turn down ringer volume when I launch Camera app on my HTC Evo 4G LTE (so that there is no annoying shutter sound). It does that just fine but I can't figure out how to make it turn ringer volume back to normal after I exit the Camera app? Can it do that?

Thank you!

Hello guys,

I am grateful for this app. Thank you for the hard work, and looking forward to any future goodness you bring as well.

keep up the great work.
[Android Apps and Games] phntm:
i think it's related to a google play services update. i've added some code to handle it better (hopefully not killed it all together). i've tested it on a couple of devices, but it always seem to break right after a release.

please test 0.3.3, if you don't see it in the store here's a link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/pqrhkddlut90yub/MiniTasker-release-0.3.3.apk

it's currently available to 10% of all users and I might have to yank it out if it's broken.
[Android Apps and Games] phntm:
v0.3.3 (finally)

sorry for the long delay, i had no spare time at all lately.

i would have liked to release a bit more features but it's mainly bug fixes again.

i've changed the launcher mechanism, hopefully there will be no regressions, and on the plus side, you can now open multiple apps in one task.

i've added active location probing (enable in the settings). it will poke the gps every 15 minutes for no longer than 30 seconds, if you want to turn off wifi - this is a good idea to turn on. still a work in progress though.

the root-not-working issue some people been having is still a bit beyond me, but i've added some compatibility code, so with a bit of luck, previously unsupported devices will spring into life.

sms failures are now tracked and attempts to resend will be made.

there's a new toggle option for wifi tethering if your devices supports it.

about the calendar/location stop triggering after some time - i think i found the issue and hopefully fixed it.

that's it with the release, it should pop up in the store soon.

please reply here or just email me directly in the next 24 hours if you spot any regressions (contact@kix.co.il)

there are a couple bug reports i didn't open yet, there are really a lot! i will though, soon.

sorry if you didn't get a reply

yet, i might have to resort to group replies.

again, thanks for the support.

i know i said bluetooth will be ready, it's not just yet. i know sometimes i say stuff like "it will be ready by next release" and then a month passes - sorry! i will add as much stuff as i can with the time i have.

I've just installed from your link. I should have said before now that I eventually got beta1 working, but it had required a reboot and resetting locations on the conditions.
