[Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers] A Good Kid:
best rom?
[Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers] haxelsson78:
It all depends

It all depends on what you want out of it, I personally run stock but that's because I'm having alot of trouble, which I believe is due to my phone and not to the rom. Be aware that some roms don't include the Ultra Stamina mode. If you need root then you have to check if the rom supports Magisk or SuperSu. They all differ in their own way and you might just have to try some of them to get a clear image. I personally like the concept and poison roms, but that's just my personal prefrence and I haven't tried them all.

I'm sure this can't be too hard...

I'm playing around with converting YouTube videos so they can play back on my Dopod. Currently I am using Free FLV Converter v3.5.0, but I always get video that play back jerky in Windows Media Player Mobile 9 (off my 8GB MicroSD card).

Can anyone recommend the best settings for video on a Hermes? Currently using:

Codec: WMV2

Size: 320x240

Video Bitrate: 750Kbps

Frame Rate: 25

Aspect: Auto

Audio Codec: WMA

Frequency: 22050

Channel Mode: Mono

Audio Bitrate: 96Kbps
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mrpiggae:
Google a copy of Any Video Converter. I use it to convert WMA, FLV, anything really into MP4 format (Which our phones record in natively, so playback is smooth and clear). I use the follow video setting in Any Video Converter after choosing the mobile/pocket pc option:

Video Codec: MP4

Video Size: 320x240 (This fills the whole screen in landscape)

Video Bitrate: 512

Video Framerate: 30fps

Audio Codec: aac

Audio Bitrate: 64

Sample Rate: 11025

Audio Channel: 2

Disable Audio: 2

A/V Sync: Basic

With these settings, the video's I convert look nice.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Zilch:
Thanks, but do those play back in Windows Media Player Mobile 9, or do you use different software to play them back?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Zilch:
Using those settings in Free FLV Converter v3.5.0 results in an AVI file that gives "Cannot Play File" when trying it on my Dopod :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Zilch:
Woohoo! The exact same settings with the free version of Any Video Converter works perfectly! Thanks!

Hello everyone I need a little bit of help figuring out how to change the bootscreen on the mogul. If anyone can lend a helping hand, it would greatly be appreciated.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] bedoig:
I believe the initial bootscreen has to be changed while building the ROM. The second splash screen can be changed by merely overwriting "welcomehead.96.png" in /windows with another image.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] awandkk:
It could be different depending on wireless provider, but my Sprint Titan uses "SPCS_startup.gif" in the Windows directory. I renamed the original and

then added my own gif. Hope that helps a little. I do remember a thread regarding this, I will dig around.

[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mmotti:
Hi All,

It would appear that the interface / code changed rather a lot in the most recent update and the previous intents are no longer working.

I have figured out how to fix this. Please follow the directions below.

Important Note: Your profile name is now prefixed with PC. E.g. My profile of test.co.uk/example [user] would now be PC test.co.uk/example [user]

So, here are the settings (don't include the curly brackets):

Connect

Action: net.openvpn.openvpn.CONNECT

Extra: net.openvpn.openvpn.AUTOSTART_PROFILE_NAME: PC {Your profile name}

Extra: net.openvpn.openvpn.AUTOCONNECT: true

Package: net.openvpn.openvpn

Class: net.openvpn.unified.MainActivity

Target: Activity

Disconnect

Action: net.openvpn.openvpn.DISCONNECT

Extra: net.openvpn.openvpn.STOP: true

Package: net.openvpn.openvpn

Class: net.openvpn.unified.MainActivity

Target: Activity

Edit: As of the current version (3.0.4), OpenVPN no longer remains in the foreground on disconnect.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] Keldor:
Awesome... Thanks for the fix.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] jvillasante:
Thanks

Yes - It is very annoying that OpenVPN remains on the foreground on Disconnect.

Can Tasker's Kill App be used for this purpose?
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mmotti:
I tried this but it didn't seem to do anything.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] xhenon:
Thank you very much!!!
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mondohow:
:highfive: Thank you for finding this. I had to downgrade 1.1.27 to get my task to work, but now I've got the new UI and working tasks, so THANK YOU.

As a lazy workaround to the app remaining in the foreground I've added a 1-second wait then 2 AutoInput Back actions:

"Intent to end OpenVPN connection"

2. Wait = 1 second

3. AutoInput Global Action = Back

4. AutoInput Global Action = Back
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] xhenon:
Could you explain in tasker how to do it?

Thanks
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mondohow:
You will need the AutoInput Tasker plugin for this to work. You can get it from here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joaomgcd.autoinput

1. Follow the above steps for the Disconnect task

2. Hit the + to add a new action

In the list that pops up, select Task -> Wait and change it to 1 second

3. Hit the + button to add a new action

In the list select Plugin -> AutoInput -> Global Action

Hit the pencil icon next to Configuration

Hit Action -> Select Back from the list

Hit the check mark on the top right, then hit the back button to return to the Actions list

4. Repeat #3

Your Actions list should look like the attached image.

I had to add the AutoInput 'Back' action twice since OpenVpn Connect backs out of the VPN Profile screen into the main app screen. The second Back action takes you to back into your last app/activity.

It's a lazy workaround so I'm sure someone will come up with something better in time.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] jvillasante:
Go Home tasker task

As another workaround for OpenVPN Connect staying in the foreground on Disconnect I added this tasks to my disconnect profile

Wait 5 seconds

Go Home

Tasker has a Go Home task built in that effectively works for this use case!
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mmotti:
Excellent - Thanks.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] Pig Vomit:
Thank you for this. BIG help.

[Tasker Tips & Tricks] betahelix:
Hi.

Thank you for this.

Maybe i am just to noobish for this, but how do you make the command "Actions"?

Is that Secure settings?
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mmotti:
I originally followed a guide here: https://collinmbarrett.com/android-tasker-openvpn/

That should tell you where to find the necessary actions.

Use the updated values in OP instead of those listed on the site, though.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] rodak:
First of all, thank you for this post.

Currently I'm using "go home" to "close" open vpn after disconnect.

Latest change log says "* added minimize app on disconnect shortcut feature"

Do you think we can use it in Tasker somehow to natively minimize the app after disconnect?
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mmotti:
I was using: wait 1 second and go home.

After updating, it actually closes itself automatically now. It happens very quickly - I don't even see the OpenVPN UI.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] rodak:
Thanks, will try it out.

Edit: It worked perfectly, maybe time to update the original post? :)
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mmotti:
I popped an edit in there :)
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] 9_Mad-Max_5:
Hello,

I am using Automate its pretty much the same in terms of use like tasker.

But it's free and you Programm flows. But when I try this without using the back back option the disconnect interface didn't close it self.

Did you comment something new in the action blocks?

Gesendet von meinem G8341 mit Tapatalk
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mmotti:
I didn't make any changes other than removing the 'go home' option.

Are you on OpenVPN Connect version 3.0.4?
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] 9_Mad-Max_5:
Jep running 3.0.4.

I thought it would be a little bit more slim and sexy if it works silent in the background.

Gesendet von meinem G8341 mit Tapatalk
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mmotti:
That's odd. Perhaps automate sends the intents different to Tasker? I haven't personally used it.

Edit: have you got 'Shortcut Minimise' enabled in OpenVPN settings?
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] 9_Mad-Max_5:
Yes already activated.

I made these changes to my OpenVPN set up and it attempts to connect, crashes and goes into a loop when Tasker runs the action to connect. Connecting manually through the app works fine. Any suggestions on what to check?

Edit: Nevermind, looking at my Tasker logs, it's firing the disconnect right after the connect, I'll figure out what I broke...
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] wiz561:
By any chance, were you able to resolve this? I'm having the same exact issue as you are.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] mjones73:
Yeah I didn't have the profile set up correctly.

I have two states in the profile to make it work.

Wifi Connected, SSID blank, MAC blank, IP blank, Active Any, Invert unchecked.

Wifi Connected, SSID (my white list - ssid1/ssid2/etc), MAC blank, IP blank, Active Any, Invert checked.

Set your VPN connect as your task and disconnect as your exit task.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] JeffXT:
If anyone's reading this in the future - in the Wifi Connected context, make sure Active is set to "Any"
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] 13raisOr37:
Hello guys,

I have a similar problem with the OpenVPN App and Tasker:

Scenario: Whenever the phone is connected to WiFi that does not belong to me, Tasker should fire up OpenVPN and then trigger syncing of some folders via FolderSync Pro during the night.

All of that is working properly and when debugging the whole setup in Tasker everything works fine.

I use the setup taken from the first post in order to get OpenVPN to connect.

I noticed one thing when debugging the setup: Whenever Tasker gets OpenVPN to connect, Tasker will go to the background and OpenVPN will start in the foreground, then I can see the connection happening and a notification sound gets played once the connection happened, then Tasker comes back to the foreground.

I then have a wait of 15sec in Tasker after which Tasker checks whether VPN is actually successfully connected (via Tasker State "VPN connected"), if this is the case, Tasker will continue, otherwise it will create an error notification and exit.

Whenever the whole setup gets run in the background I only get the notification that OpenVPN was not connected (see above error case).

Also the Run Log of Tasker indicates that after the 15sec wait Tasker could not detect the VPN connection, OpenVPN logs also show nothing.

I think this might be related to OpenVPN coming to the foreground when Tasker gets it to connect and somehow this is not working when the phone is locked (just sitting somewhere during the night).

Does anybody have an idea what the issue could be here or how to get OpenVPN to connect "silently" ?

Note: Also setting/unsetting "Shortcut Minimize" option in OpenVPN did not make any difference.

Thanks in advance!

Any way to start the VPN in the background?

Still not working

It opens OpenVPN but doesn't connect.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] user9082390:
I too am having an issue getting this to work. But I am a n00b.

I guess firstly, I should say that this is my first Tasker task. And I've tried to figure out how to get Logs on Tasker to diagnose my issue, but everytime I go to Run Log, it is blank with nothing there. So as of now I have no way of troubleshooting, other than the myriad of combinations I have tried to get this to work. I also don't understand some of the suggestions look like code to me, but my app seems entirely GUI, so if anyone has any tips on how to code solutions that would be appreciated too. I am using Tasker, OpenVPN Tasker Plugin, and OpenVPN for Android.

Anyways, here is what I have:

Profile named "Wifi Connected"

SSID: mywifi

MAC: blank

IP: blank

Active: Any

Invert: unchecked

Entry Task: OpenVPN VPN Connect, configuration Connect

Exit Task: OpenVPN VPN Disconnect, configuration Disconnect

What is happening:

I come into range of "mywifi" (or alternatively I just turn router on) and nothing on my phone changes. If I unlock my phone to check, the "mywifi" is connected, but the VPN is not. If I open Tasker, I can see that my profile is highlighted in green, so it must be recognizing the state right? So then if I muck around with the on/off buttons or if I close and reopen tasker, yes the VPN will eventually connect but only if I have interacted with the app in some way. I've tried various combinations of waiting for some time, closing the app manually, etc...

The same goes for disconnecting. If I go away from "mywifi" (or turn off the router), the state stops being green but OpenVPN remains connected. It will stay connected even on LTE, and then if I connect to a different Wifi afterwards, it will again remain connected. It won't disconnect unless I muck around with the various on/off buttons in Tasker or if I manually disconnect in the OpenVPN app.

If anyone could provide me any breadcrumbs as to how to figure this out?

(on a side note, I would love to get wifi-tethering to automate with Tasker too but my understanding is a root is required, which I have not done yet as I am too n00b at this stage. Unless anyone knows of a non-root alternative for that, but I will make a different post for that issue once I can work this one out) edit - found this thread https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s9-plus/help/automate-wifi-tether-connecting-to-t3765373 but the app doesn't offer the option of Bluetooth NEAR, it's only if Bluetooth is connected - doesn't work for me since my partner wants her phone Bluetoothed to the head unit, but my phone for the wifi tethering).

Thank you!

Not working here either in 3.0.5

I can disconnect the VPN so the app listens to the intends, but I can't connect my profile.

Wifi Connected > VPN Connect Intent

VPN Disconnect Intent

Wifi Connected + Not VPN Connected > VPN Connect (note this is not my intent task)

Not Wifi Connected > VPN Disconnect (not this is not my intent task either)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Tasks:

VPN Connect = OpenVPN Configuration Connect and connect to my VPN

VPN Disconnect = OpenVPN Configuration Disconnect

VPN Connect Intent=

1. Send Intent

Action net.openvpn.openvpn.connect

2. Wait

4 seconds

3. Go Home

My apologies that I can't really explain at all how this works, it was all trial and error to put together. It does work 99% of the time though for me, which has made me happy. If you know of an easier way for me to share these let me know and I'll try that too.
