I don't think so, try it ... I have always been rooted.

But give tasker the adb permissions first

https://tasker.joaoapps.com/userguide/en/help/ah_secure_setting_grant.html

"Secure Settings Permission

First, the app finally adds the WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission to the Manifest. This isn’t necessarily a feature, but it opens up the ability to control device Secure/Global settings without needing an additional plug-in such as AutoTools or SecureTask.

Once you update Tasker, you can take advantage of this new permission by issuing the following command via ADB:

adb shell pm grant net.dinglisch.android.taskerm android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

Now, you can create actions that write to the Settings.Secure or Settings.Global tables on your device."

There are many settings that can be manipulated, but do it when you are more advanced ...
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
There are some functions in Tasker that requires root but I understand from glancing through the Play Store info, the app does not require root in general. I don't use this app though.

Shortcutter can work without root but you need to grant certain permissions via ADB. Instructions can be found in the app home screen - manage permissions (if not rooted and permissions not yet given).

I have this installed on both rooted and non rooted devices.

Hi [MENTION=398245]LeeDroid[/MENTION]

This thread is yet very long and I'm lost.

The app is fine :good::good::good:

but is there yet implemented a shortcut for Settings>Developer Options>"Running services" and other for "Running processes in caché".

Now in the app it seems there are three options to go to Running services but they go to the same, "Installed apps"

Thanks

Hi [MENTION=8671532]hyborian[/MENTION] and [MENTION=6323980]chooks06[/MENTION],

Thank you both for your inputs! I re-installed Tasker and started playing around and managed to create shortcuts exactly like how I wanted (used your template to make my own). Can paste here if you want to see it.

In a nutshell, it works, and I'm able to add custom brightness levels to a custom tile. However, I face 2 issues:

1It doesn't display the icon I've given it in Tasker

After every toggle, the notification area goes away (unlike the Shortcutter "Brightness Preset" action tile which keeps the Notification area pulled down until you arrive at the setting you want to)

Would you have any ideas how to fix this?
[Android Apps and Games] hyborian:
Well that was just an idea. I don't use my brightness task in Shortcutter, I use it in a Gesture Control app where I just swipe up until I reach the brightness setting value I want (or if using Nova Launcher, it can be configured too)

I don't know why your icon is not showing, it does on mine.

* Some options:

- Easiest is to do it outside Shortcutter, as a Tasker shortcut in your home screen

- Have several tasks for each common brightness setting that you want and put in Shortcutter

- tweak the task to show a menu of choices, using the Menu action and scene. You'll have to figure it out, but it will enhance your learning of the powerful Tasker, so much things to do, even create your own quick settings tiles or your own Sidebar. I prefer Shortcutter Sidebar though, it's ready-made already and I just add tasks.

See example of a menu below, where I have Font Size icon in Shortcutter. When I press it shows me a menu of choices
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
I'm sorry to be of no further help.

I don't use Tasker myself.

Based on what [MENTION=8671532]hyborian[/MENTION] has input, that could be an option or (at least based on my understanding reading his input) a possible workaround.

I believe Tasker also has options to allow permissions via ADB (after I reread the info in Play store).

From my limited understanding of Tasker, I believe that it's pretty powerful.

Wishing you (and [MENTION=8671532]hyborian[/MENTION] and everyone else on this forum) a Great New Year with abundant blessings!

Cheers!
[Android Apps and Games] ElTron:
First of all, happy new year everybody:

I have a question to ask about Shortcutter. This app needs permission to "show on top" other apps to work properly but if this permission is given I receive sometimes a notification warning of this permission. How can I avoid to receive this notification???

I have tried in the app settings to "block oreo notifications" but when this is done it is necessary to activate Shorcutter as a notification receptor . This gives Shorcutter permission to read all the received messages . Is it necessary to do this???

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] ElTron:
Is it possible a shortcut to Accessibility> Visibility enhancements > Invert colours.

Despite Android 10 has a system dark mode, there are some apps that don't invert colours like Quora or Whatsapp. If the option "Accessibility> Visibility enhancements > Invert colours" is enabled these apps like Quora or Whatsapp change to dark theme. But the images are very bad. Then it would be to have a shortcut to change fast in between Invert colours/no invert colours.
[Android Apps and Games] kaleid1990:
No one? :(
[Android Apps and Games] LeeDroid:
Sorry guys, busy times!

I am about to get back on the Shortcutter train and give it an overhaul... Will be back in here more over the next few weeks!
[Android Apps and Games] LeeDroid:
Let me do some testing and I will get back to you, only recently jumped onto Android 10 ?
[Android Apps and Games] LeeDroid:
Invert colours is available in the app with settings secure access enabled, it's under the advanced access tiles section ?
[Android Apps and Games] LeeDroid:
Hi,

The system notification is quite annoying but some systems allow you to long press and disable them, not sure of that's an option for you?

Rest assured, if you do use the Oreo notification blocker it doesn't capture anything, no information from anywhere is stored in the app or sent outside the app, it quite literally checks for the system overlay notification flag and dismisses it.
[Android Apps and Games] thekokii:
Is it possible to disable the custom toast notification on launcher shortcuts? (Location mode pops up, but I don't need that)

[Android Apps and Games] danial.aw:
Hey, i seem to be having an issue ..

OnePlus 7 Pro, Open Beta 8... After a certain amount of time the tiles kind of get disabled... They become a light grey... And then I have to click it multiple times to invoke them.

I read that disabling battery optimisation fixes it... So I did that but it still is going into the disabled state :/

Any suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] bloodgull:
Fantastic! Thank you LeeDroid.

I am, however running into another issue that has bummed me out. Been following the development on an app called Power Shade

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.treydev.pns

fyi for those of us that can't have dark them system ui on android n this app allows for a skinned version (dark mode) of the quick settings notifications and shades. , unfortunately none of my shortcutter shortcuts work. I wonder if integration is possible? all the shortcutter shortcuts are visible and give the appearance they work but they do not. Users like myself have to choose between which application they would rather have.
[Android Apps and Games] hyborian:
I have location Off most of the time, and only turn it on with Tasker if I open an app that needs it.

On Android Pie, Shortcutter sidebar shows me the WiFi SSID name under WiFi even if location is off. However, it now shows "unknown" in Android 10. Toggling location to On will make the SSID name show up. Is it possible to show the SSID name as well in Android 10 even if location is off ? The system's quick settings shows the name too.

Just asking, I'm fine either way ...
[Android Apps and Games] LeeDroid:
That's something to do with how the system is reporting it, unfortunately the app still has to use reflection in places as not all of the methods are public, reflection is mostly blocked in Android 10
[Android Apps and Games] LeeDroid:
Hmm.. Battery opt should have sorted that out, but with it being a beta I would expect glitches, I am on an Op7T Pro, might have to jump over when I get chance.

Don't tend to use the pulldown these days, sidebar set to bottom does everything I need and I expand it with a swipe up from nova
[Android Apps and Games] bloodgull:
Lee droid, I take it you not answering my question to mean a definitive NO about power shade integration/compatibility
[Android Apps and Games] Sami Jildeh:
How do you accomplish this "I expand it with a swipe up from nova"? You mean by nova is Nova launcher?
[Android Apps and Games] LeeDroid:
Just checked it out mate and i don't think it incorporates or replaces the system tileservice, it's not actually styling anything, it's overlaying and blocking the system shade.. the developers of the app would have to support third party tiles... Pretty fun cool though

Yes Nova launcher with a swipe up gesture, also have it linked to FNG
[Android Apps and Games] Sami Jildeh:
What is FNG? i open swipe up gesture then there is nova, apps and shortcuts. Where to go and what to select?

Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] LeeDroid:
FNG is fluid Navigation gestures app.

Enable the "SideBar Expander" in sidebar settings, then assign it to the gesture, it will show in the apps list
[Android Apps and Games] Old Man Dave:
[MENTION=398245]LeeDroid[/MENTION] about a week or so ago the camera shortcut in my sidebar stopped working. I haven't been able to get back, I've changed roms twice and it didn't make a difference (once to stock and again to a custom).

I'm on a pixel 3xl.

Any ideas? I've tried to figure out on my own but am admitting defeat.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
I had the same a few updates back.

Encountered with 3 apps of which 2 were resolved by removing and reassigning the app to the shortcut.

The only one that cant be solved is with the Kiwi Browser app.
[Android Apps and Games] Old Man Dave:
tried that already... Thanks anyway.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:

Something very strange going on here guys, Facebook messenger also fails to launch which is frustrating... I am investigating
[Android Apps and Games] Old Man Dave:
Awesome, thanks. Let me know if there is anything I can give you to help.
[Android Apps and Games] hyborian:
The camera on the sidebar works for me though, on both Android 10 and Pie. As for Facebook stuff, I uninstalled them as I don't use them so can't test.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Thanks mate!

I don't use FBM but Google Messages, WhatsApp and Telegram launch.

Of the reassigned shortcuts one was a banking app. Working fine after reassigning.

Can't remember which what another app was.

So far Kiwi browser is the only one that can't launch from the sidebar.

Edit - Umidigi A5 Pro, no root, stock Android 9.
[Android Apps and Games] hawknest:
New UI is pretty damn slick buddy, I'm actually impressed with all you have done with this app. I've had the app and the premium key since you first started this thing you've came a long way. if you ever need any help testing or anything like that hit me up I'm still around just not developing as much works keeping me pretty damn busy but I'm more willing to test stuff for you. Keep it up man

Where does shortcutter screenrecorder save the recorded files?

Can the location be selected?

---------- Post added at 10:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 PM ----------

I have exactly the same problem.

"It does start recording, but when I try to stop it from notifications tray, it just does not react - continues recording. I have to force stop the Shortcutter to stop the recording".

Mine is Moto G7 running stock android pie.
[Android Apps and Games] LeeDroid:
Only just seen this.

The location can be changed in the "shortcut specific settings" page.

The notification button works fine on all of my test devices so that's a little bizzare tbh, I will do some additional investigating, got a lot of work to do on the app
[Android Apps and Games] LeeDroid:
It's an idea, I will see if I can get them into the icon without it being too resources heavy ?

Looks like you 2 sorted your selves out :)
[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
Thank you for replying. I know you are busy.

I finally found the recording. But I test recorded a segment.

A) could not stop it recording. See screenshot. Clicking on 'stop recording' had no effect.

B) I found a previous recording I made with shortcutter. 400MB file. Would not play on any app I have. Just got a black screen.

Moto G7 with rooted stock android 9.

Could it be that the Moto G7 is not capable of video screen recording? It does standard screenshots fine.
[Android Apps and Games] maybeme2:
Forgot the screenshot I promised. It won't upload. It's png.

[Android Apps and Games] rsngfrce:
Samsung Galaxy S10e, Android 10.

I have what I consider to be somewhat of an odd issue. I don't know if this only happens to me, or it happens to everyone. When I use Shortcutter and then go to my home screen, Shortcutter always disappear from the recently used apps list. Oftentimes I want to go back into Shortcutter and it would be much more convenient if I could get to it from the recently used apps list. Is Shortcutter doing something that removes it from the recently used apps list?

UPDATE: This happens at least when I am pinning a launcher icon to the home screen, which I have been doing a lot lately.
[Android Apps and Games] DoucheMcBaggins:
Does anyone know of a way to set up a direct toggle for Data Saver as a pull-down tile?

I like to use it as a do-not-disturb mode at work, with only WhatsApp being allowed to use mobile data in the background for my work group chat. That way I don't get notifications for emails, Instagram, Facebook, etc...

At the moment the best I've managed is a shortcut to the Connections menu, so I still have to navigate to Data Usage > Data Saver. It's a small thing to complain about but I like to streamline things that I use often and it'd be nice to have proper shortcut for Data Saver.

Running Android 9 on Galaxy S8+
[Android Apps and Games] hyborian:
Doesn't happen on my Xiaomis, all ok.

I don't have Data Saver on my phones, but if available, I'd use Tasker or its plugin AutoInput for such a task
[Android Apps and Games] DARKFiB3R:
It would be great if pulling down on the Shortcutter trigger would open the notification shade, and swiping up acted as a back button.

Is this possible?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] hyborian:
Anyone here in Android 11 ? Are you able to rearrange tiles in the sidebar ? Long press on icon does not do anything for me, but not sure if rom issue or shortcutter.

---------- Post added at 11:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:47 AM ----------

That would be nice, more functions for the trigger itself. I myself use Gesture Control, swipe downwards and hold brings out the shortcutter sidebar, swipe down for notifications, swipe up to expand qs, swipe right, swipe right and hold for other stuff.

Mono audio toggle crashes Shortcutter

Hi friends,

I was super excited to learn about the mono audio toggle provided by Shortcutter -- an awesome accessibility feature that should be available by default on all handsets.

Unfortunately, invoking this toggle on a Pixel 5 running Android 11 crashes Shortcutter. The device I'm testing on is rooted and masquerading as a Pixel 3a, though I doubt this makes a difference.

I have enabled the "Allow modifying system settings" permission for Shortcutter in Android settings, as well as set the WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission via adb (rebooting afterward of course):

adb shell pm grant com.leedroid.shortcutter android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

Here is the stack trace:

I have recently updated my ancient Samsung Galaxy S5 Duos to Android 10 using LineageOS 17.1, and the device is now rooted too using Magisk.

I'm using Shortcutter (paid user) and I'm mostly very happy with all of the functionality that has been combined into the one app.

But I do have a few questions:

- I quite often see a "Shorcutter - Restarting Services" notification message. Is this normal?

(Battery Optimisation has already been disabled for Shortcutter)

- After taking a Screenshot I see a notification message that says "Counting Down 0". The screenshot is taken successfully but the notification is not cleared. Is this normal?

(I'm using the Root Screenshot Method and the Screenshot Delay is set to 1 second)

- It seems that screenshots are saved as .PNG files. Can they be saved as .JPG files instead?

(.PNG files are not compatiable with all messengers, eg: in Viber a .png file is not displayed correctly)

THANKS! :)
