I can think of a hundred ways to do this depending on what you want to recheck, but I assume it's the state of the WiFi. I think the simplest thing would be to create a profile that has "wifi not connected" as the trigger, Set Variable %Wifistatus To disconnected (you can name the variable and value whatever you want) as the enter task, and Set Variable %Wifistatus To connected as the exit task. Then create a new profile which has Variable Value as the trigger, %Wifistatus (matches) disconnected. The task should then first be Wait (for as long as you want to wait, 2 minutes was what you said in the other post) and then you add task WiFi Set: Off, check If, and enter %Wifistatus (matches) disconnected

Basically this uses a variable to create a "wifi disconnected" state that can be used by any action. When WiFI is first disconnected, the timer starts, and if WiFi is still disconnected when it finishes, WiFi is turned off.

I use the same method myself in order to have multiple profiles and individual tasks trigger off the same event, in my case my sleep mode profile which doesn't just run the sleep mode enter/exit tasks but also controls whether or not my "no dad" profile is active

Trouble again

First off I want to thank you again for all your help. Now I have a new problem. Everything appears to be set up correctly. It works well. The problem now I'd that when i try to turn wifi back on the task seems to skip waiting for 2 minutes. So both tasks run at the same time.

Meaning when my variable wifistatus is set to "connected" it's a milisecond too late and my wifi has already been disconnected by the task to turn it off.

thoughts? I've taken a few screenshots. But I can't attach links yet... sigh.

[Droid X Themes and Apps] The McMurder:
Solved

So I finally figured it out. I had to use an additional condition (variable) to force the task to end and turn the wifi off in an exit task. That way the task wasn't running when I tried to turn on wifi later. Now I can walk out of any wifi area I'm connected to and my phone will turn wifi off automagically! Thanks for your help!

I also use tasker to nag me to take my allergy medicine and remind me to log calories consumed.

Multicolored notifications

I've been using Tasker to run the Notification light on my phone. I think it is quite nifty. The problem I'm running into is that I'd like to make some notifications multicolored. So when I get an email for example the light flashes Red, then Blue, then Red, then blue and so on until I look at it. What's happening now is that I'm getting the first color and that is it. The other colors "Run" but they don't show up at all.

ive used tasker for basic things (turn wifi on/off, set volumes, etc) but need some help doing a few things that are beyond clicking on one of the pre-made actions in tasker. i am using this in conjunction with nfc task launcher on my galaxy nexus.

i know how to have tasker open an app automatically but is there a way to have it do things within that app. for example, one of the nfc tag ideas i read was using it to automatically start a timer for when you are doing the laundry or cooking. i have an app called stopwatch/timer. is there a way to have tasker open that app and start a timer?

thanks.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Cptnodegard:
That depends on the app. In your case, yes, yes there is. Get the following:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.intuitit.android.p.timer

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

Create your preset timers in the timer app. Go to Tasker actions, Plugins, AutoShortcut, click the Edit button, and scroll down to the Timer option. Select your preset timer.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] DaveWW00:

Hi

I have been also using tasker for simple things but now i have some bigger things in mind.

I have two needs that i haven't found a solution until now

Facts

1. I have a telephony service that sents me an SMS with the phone numbers that have called me but for some reason my phone was unavailable

2. I have a big database of contacts ( 2000+ ) that i do not wish to have in my phonebook , but i want to keep on my phone

I began to use the latest Memento Database and i managed to create a contacts database , which is searchable and nice looking so now i would like to find a way to set Tasker look into this database and match numbers from either calls or sms to that database and give back results to matching contacts

Can this be done ??
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Cptnodegard:
Depending on how the database app saves the database, it might be possible. It's not something I have the time to give step by steps instructions for however

tasker and open file

How i can open a text file in jota text editor with tasker?

Open file tries to open a file in a pdf reader. If i try to open jota with load app and data file:///mnt/sdcard/file.txt, it opens the editor but not with the file.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Cptnodegard:
Tasker opens the file the way the system is configured to open that file. If you want it to open in a specific app you have to set that app as the default for that type. You can go to the app that's currently holding that position in the system settings and remove its file associations.

Hi ,

I have upgrade my HTC Desire OTA with the recent HTC Froyo release (1 August) and Finally there is some hint of arabic support, the font is there but the letters are shown disconnected and sometimes in the wrong direction (left to right).

Is there any way to have Arabic correctly displaying on official Froyo ?

Dear Falkonman

visit this site unrevoked.com

download unrevoked when you run it you have to remove htc sync otheriwise it won't work also in the package there is a site link to download the hboot drivers download them as when the device enters recovery mode it is going to ask for the drivers.

this software will root and install a recovery image on your device so you can flash any rom or zip file to your device.

any good news guys arabizing HTC Desire with Froyo ?

i tried unrevoked reflash but unfortunately it doesn't work with Froyo :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krawad:
i have rooted my HTC desire Froyo using Unrevoked and it worked.

i also downloaded "the froyo_desire_libs_arabic_android_plus_signed"

but couldnt install it through the Recovery Menu.

i bought my phone two weeks ago, so im kinda new to those (rooting, flashing etc) stuff.

i have lots of questions now:

1- i did a backup of my stock ROM and it was successful but couldnt find it on the SD-Card, is it normal? (i also noticed that the used/free space after the backup were not much affected)

2- when trying to install a ROM from a zip file using the ROM Manager i got an error saying that it couldnt access the update.zip file (i have flashed the ClockWorkMod Recovery), i got also this error when trying to install the arabic ROM, what could have caused that, am i missing something here?

3- if by anyways i managed to install this arabic ROM, will it fix the broken arabic font or will it convert the phone language to Arabic, i.g. can i keep the language of the english and fix the arabic font in messages, internet browser, etc.. ?

thank you :)

Hey,

i have a rogers htc dream with the newest rom and 911 update and i want to root it to the latest cyanogen mod 5 i saw this guide on wiki but i was having some problem like these command

A - Placing the rooting files on your phone

The first thing we need to do is put the explid binary and related files onto the phone via adb

1. Ensure USB Debugging is enabled (Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging)

2. run the following adb commands on your computer (from the directory withe the downloaded files) this will put the hack on your phone

* adb push spl-signed.zip /sdcard/1_33_2005_spl.zip

* adb push recovery-RA-dream-v1.7.0R-cyan.img /data/local

* adb push exploid /sqlite_stmt_journals

* adb shell chmod 777 /sqlite_stmt_journals/exploid

It will be great if someone can remoteply control my computer and do this mod

[Touch CDMA Android Development] jstrom23:
If you search the main Froyo thread, incubus put up a link to the archive of recent releases.

I went back to RLS10.5 and the 7/15 zImage per richardk3's suggestion. At first I did notice less freezing and overall better performance. But then I made a long call (over 5 min) with BT headset and the phone became unresponsive. BT and the call were still working fine, but the phone was unresponsive and had to be reset at the end of the call.

This is pretty consistent across all builds in Eclair and Froyo. I've reached the point where I basically accept that this is always going to happen and I'll need to reboot. It's worth the trade-off, though, since this build is so amazing and Android is so much better than WinMo.

Johndixon, if you're running from nbh then you may need to clear the dalvik cache from the boot screen menu. Worked for me when the freezes came fast and furious.

After updating to HTC froyo my mail app now deletes all previous messages in inbox when refreshing!! Anyone else had this problem??
[Desire General] Alex P:
I was just looking for the same answer as you...flipping annoying as now it seems to purge my emails on my desire after the update once i've downloaded them on my home PC in Outlook. Never did this before the update and i've checked in the phone email settings how long to keep the mails in the inbox (set to 7 days at the mo) but it makes no difference. At least on WinMo you have a folder called outlook mail that keep them for a defined period.

I hope this can be fixed as i'm starting to not like the Android OS at all after being a WinMo user from day one.

It's just the simple things that let this OS down i think.

[Desire General] flash3d:
Experiencing the same here, after froyo update messages from my pop3 account seems to purge when deleted from server.

Needs a fix :)
[Desire General] roccos_van:
Crap. I have the exact same problem. As soon as you download to your pc from the server the emails are gone. No solution yet? There is a workaround you can go to your native client (outlook) go to advanced setting and check "leave emails on server". Until this is fixed this is all we can do.

Here is a brief tutorial for Outlook 2003

:

Under the Delivery section of the Advanced tab, Outlook 2003 lets you define how to handle downloaded and old emails on the mail server.

By default, Outlook 2003 downloads your emails from the server, and in effect deletes them from the server after successful downloads. Without needing access to the mail server itself, you can customize Outlook's email deletion behavior. Outlook 2003 gives you thee options.

Checking the Leave a copy of messages on the server checkbox instructs Outlook 2003 to leave a copy of your emails on the server indefinitely. You or your System Administrator will then need to delete the emails from the mail server itself.

Complementary options can refine how long, and under what conditions Outlook 2003 should leave a copy of your emails on the mail server; I have mine set to 30 days.
[Desire General] jk2:
I have another workaround.

I forward emails to myself and the emails get stored in my SENT folder. Irritating, I know, but at least I have a copy of it on my phone.
