I tried playing with this for awhile but couldn't figure it out. But is it possible to have tasker disable media audio and just use phone audio while bluetooth and navigation are being used at the same time?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] MMBosstones86:
only way i know how to do this is change all the volumes individually, i don't believe there is a profile setting specifically.

I have been using Tasker for a while now. I used to have it do auto checkins with Foursquare but I can't figure out how to make it work with APIv2. I have posted a handful of my profiles on my blog and plan on posting a new every time I come up with a new one.

Notification vibrate during phone call

Hi all,

Running CM7 nightlies and have had this problem of the notification vibrates during phone calls for gmail and handcent. People complain that it sounds like a duck getting murdered on my end.

I know I can turn this off for handcent, but it's been problematic for gmail. I think I can set up Tasker to send the phone to silent mode whenever I've got a phone call...but when it comes out of the phone call...it won't go back to whatever settings I previously had.

Here's my set-up:

Event: Phone: Phone Offhook: priority Normal

New Task: Audio: Silent Mode

It won't let me add an exit task, and I read that the newer version of Tasker will revert back after an event or a state..but it's not for me. I'd appreciate any help people have on this one.

Thanks.

Just downloaded Tasker a short while back and am using it to start mobile data through Widgetsoid and sync emails every hour for a duration of 3 minutes, then it shuts down mobile data and sync and continues to do this every hour on the hour.

Doing this sure has saved my battery, I never saw the sense of having mobile data on and auto sync on every minute of the day while the phone is in my pocket and I am not even looking at it.

Great program, now trying to think up other tasks that it can do for me.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Tumeg:
* Battery Level : Adjusts random settings, depending on my battery level.

* Block Calls : When certain numbers call, tasker will answer\end the call (So it will stop ringing, and they won't get to my voicemail)

* Block Work Calls : When my work calls me (to ask if I can come in), I let it ring for 5 seconds before hanging up (5 seconds, so I have time to decide if I want to answer - and it does not send the call to voicemail).

* Change Wallpaper Based on Weather : Cool new profile I made today. It checks Accuweather, and when it sees certain keywords ("Rain" "Cloudy" "Sunny" "Clear") it will change my wallpaper, accordingly.

* Church : Silences my phone, makes my display not time-out, and opens my Bible app

* School : Silences my phone during school

* Find Phone (GPS) : When I text my phone a keyword, it will respond with the GPS coordinates, battery level, etc.

* Find Phone (GPS) P2 : When I text my phone another keyword (when my phone is stolen), it will play an alarm, lock the phone, will end any current calls, and will also leave the GPS on (so I can keep tracking it).

* Find Phone (Ring) : This is for when I lose my phone at home. I text it, it will play a ringtone.

* Face Down Silent : This is for the "Find Phone (Ring)" profile. When I find the phone, I just flip it over to turn off the ringtone\song

* GPS Turned On : Turns on the GPS when certain apps are opened

* Incoming Call Brightness : Turns my brightness to MAX, for 15 seconds.

* Charging : Random settings for when I am charging my phone

* Wifi Starter\Stopper : Two profiles that will turn on\of and connect wifi, accordingly (by determining my location via my network connection\location)

* Work : When Tasker sees that my calendar says I am at work (this is easy to do because I have a part-time job, so I always post my shifts on my calendar), it will put my phone on vibrate - and force WiFi off, and will also lock my screen.

* Home : When I am home (It determines this by using my location, via the network connection) it will turn my volumes up. After 11pm, when the home profile is active, it will turn my phone to vibrate.

* Change Wallpaper - Timed : I have a set of 5 wallpapers (they are the same wallpapers, just different color), and they change\alternate every 30 minutes.

* Alarm : I have uninstalled Gentle Alarm, and replaced it with Tasker. Self explanatory profile.

* Silent Boot : This profile will silence my phone prior to turning off or restarting, which then silences the annoyingly loud boot-animation.

* Reminder - Trash : At 9pm every Wednesday night(repeating every 30 minutes) IF I am at home, I get a pop-up reminding me to take out the trash. The pop-up also gives me an option to end the reminders if I have taken the trash out.

* Airplane Mode : If my cell signal drops too low, airplane mode will be triggered. Every 7 minutes, the profile will stop - if there is still low signal, the profile will be reactivated.

* Headset : I finally got around to making this basic profile, that will open a menu containing Amazon MP3 (I have my music in the cloud) and Pandora, whenever I connect a headset.

I love Tasker.

Profiles...

Is there anyway possible to get your profiles? Just starting with Tasker today and I often learn best by dissecting the work of others. Plus, it helps to get me started in the right direction and I love some of these and how you are getting them to work would be ideal.

Hello

I am trying to setup a tasker profile whereby when I am camped onto 6 cell IDs, a number of tasks are carried out.

Here is what I have done so far:

Added a new profile called Home

Added a State

Selected Variable

Variable Value

and then CELLID (%CELLID)

Op = Matches

and then Value = the CELLID. I have got the CELLID from an app called net monitor

now based on this criteria, I want WIFI to switch on, and the volume to adjust etc

But for some reason I am unable to activate this profile

Any help will be greatly appreciated or if anyone has this profile setup already, I would be grateful if you could upload it for me to have a look at!

Thank you very much in advance
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] metalboy94:
I went for something somewhat simpler, but of real use to me. I set up a script (and 2 variables to help it) which turns WiFi on every 20 minutes, keeps it on for 5 minutes (so that apps such as WhatsApp can update themselves), then turns it off again, all while checking the WiFi state and the state of one of the variables (which can be changed by clicking the notification opened by the script). So the only profile I use is triggered by that notification click, which closes the script. :)

How to enable Wifi/Mobile Data based on availability

Hi All,

I'm trying to create a profile that does the following task.

I use a set of applications that use internet (like Opera, Tweetdeck, etc.). When these applications are opened, it should switch on mobile data. Now the condition is - if I am at home, it should switch on Wifi only and if I am outside, it should switch on Mobile Data only.

Can someone please help me with this?

Thanks in advance.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Ty07allstar:
I am currently using this profile, http://tasker.wikidot.com/low-battery-usage-wifi-enableing-profile-using-wifi-near, for my wifi and it doesn't seem like it is working right. Could someone who knows more about Tasker take a look and see if they can figure out what is wrong?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] degra:
Hi to all.

Well, beside the usual tasks (wifi on at home, etc.) I set up some personal tasks I find useful:

- screen always on if certain apps are running (browser, gmaps, social networking apps), because I really hate when I read a long post and the screen goes black.

- turn off the display with a gesture above proximity sensor (or covering the phone or putting it face down) to avoid power button stress.

- sleep time reminder with a vocal message "it's sleep time!" between 0:50 AM and 2;30 AM every 5 minutes. :)

- toggle button for activate/deactivate wifi hotspot.

- buttons for quick power off and reboot.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] baboonsRus:
The easy way would be to have it open "wireless and network" menu when you open the apps in question.

Otherwise, on opening the app, have it turn wifi on, insert a lag time to wait for the wifi to connect, and if your home wifi doesn't show up, then activate mobile data. The exit task would be to shut off both.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Caliesv:
Anyone figure out a different way to enable GPS with tasker other than secure settings app?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Almazick:
I’ve seen somewhere on the internet a way to make a profile similar to rain alarm which notifies you of the rain or snow using weather radar picture and locations. When weather radar picture shows rain/snow in the radius of your locations tasker shows an alarm. I like using rain alarm pro but it consumes 36mb of memory which I’m already low on memory and the main reason I want to convert it to tasker just to save some resources. If anyone knows the way to make it work please share with us.

how to make Tasker identify birthdays in calendar?

Can someone come up with the steps to achieve the following task? I tried a lot but ended up nowhere. So here it is: I have synced my Facebook calendar with the one on my phone. So my calendar shows all my friends' birthdays. All I want to do is, make Tasker read the calendar at a particular time every day and display a notification saying it is this person's birthday today.

Birthdays can be identified by simple string matching, since all the birthday entries are of the format "<name>.Birthday" (without quotes, of course). But I'm just not able to read the calendar.

Can someone help me with this?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NativeTxn:
I've searched the internet heavily regarding the following, including this and other forums, but cannot seem to find exactly what I am looking for.

I have set up different profiles to turn my wifi on/off on my Skyrocket.

One is based on "cell near" and the other is location based to within 500m of my house, using net and not GPS. They work just fine on turning the GPS on and off.

However, the problem I am having is that when I am at home and the Wifi is on (using the Tasker profiles - Wifi doesn't shut off when I get a call if I just have Wifi turned on and tasker is turned off) and I receive a call, the wifi turns off. It does this whether I use the cell near or the location profile (I presume due to the fact that it is reading the cell tower and when the call comes in it disrupts it?)

In any event, I created a third profile to run in conjunction with either of the others to keep Wifi on when it is connected to my home router thinking that this might help by overriding it since it is set to stay on as long as it is connected to the router. But, no luck. Wifi still turned off when calls came through.

So, my question is: is there a way to ensure that Wifi will stay on when a call comes through/on a call in the profiles?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Almazick:
It works great for me http://tasker.wikidot.com/wifi-automator
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NativeTxn:
Thank you.

Think this is probably dumb question, but how do I download them to the phone? I opened the browser and got to the page on my phone, but when I click on the links it brings up the code page.

Is there some way to download/save them to be imported into Tasker that I am missing?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Almazick:
Just download them on your PC and move it to SD card. Open Tasker and import each one of them.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NativeTxn:
Thanks. I was using the Dolphin browser. Tried it in the stock browser and was able to get them imported just fine. Thanks again!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Robdyx:
I've tried to do this myself but seems to be a bit difficult, if not impossible.

I've used Proximity Screen Off for a while in my old N1, but now it doesn't work that flawlessly in my NP, so I want a profile to turn my screen off if I move my hand over the phone (proximity sensor covered more than 0.5s) and the phone is not in horizontal position (playing a game or so).

Could anyone help me with this?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] tambourineman86:
I've been teaching myself how to use this program and came up with one that is helpful and is also a great way to learn how to use Variables and Profile referencing. I apologize in advance if there's already a better way out there to get this done, I just wasn't able to find it.

Here it is:

What this profile does:

Reads you your text messages over your bluetooth headset if (and only if) your bt is on AND connected. There is a lot of personal customization that you can do to this profile, so I will show exactly what I do and you can tweak from there.

A. create variable %BTCONN

No need to give it a value quite yet, our Profiles will do that for us.

B. create Profile BTVar

1. Context: State > Net > Bluetooth Connected

2. Task: Variable > Variable Set > %BTCONN To 1

DISABLE AND KEEP THIS PROFILE DISABLED. THE ReadTexts PROFILE WILL TURN IT ON AND OFF FOR YOU. IT WILL NOT WORK RIGHT IF YOU ENABLE IT MANUALLY.

C. create new Task named ReadTexts

1. Task > If %BLUE matches on

2. Tasker > Profile Status > Set BTVar On

3. Task > Wait 500 ms

4. Task > If %BTCONN = 1

5. Audio > Media Volume set to Level 4

6. Audio > Notification Volume set to Level 7

7. Misc > Say > New Message Received. From %SMSRN: %SMSRB

Make sure to set Engine Voice to whatever you use (I use SVOX, available on the market, stock is PICO TTS). Stream as System. %SMSRN is the texter's name and %SMSRB is the Message body itself. Edit text to said to your liking.

8. Audio > Notification Volume set to Level 5

9. Audio > Media Volume set to Level 15

10. Task > End If

11. Tasker > Profile Status > Set BTVar Off

12. Variable > Variable Clear > %BTCONN

13. Task > End If

D. create Profile named ReadTexts

1. Context: Event > Phone > Received Text > Any (or choose contacts you want)

2. Task: ReadTexts

This little project was a great introduction to Tasker and really showed me how powerful this app can really be. the ability to create your own variables is amazingly useful. Even if you don't use bluetooth, check out this setup. I'm sure you can modify it in some way to be helpful to you.

That said, its still a WIP. I eventually want to silence the notification "ding" and disable it during a call. Then it will be complete :) God, I love Tasker!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Anakha56:
I was wondering if someone could help get this type of profile up and running. What I want is when my phone is attached to my work's WiFi to launch CSipSimple (when the phone is attached to any WiFi it launches CSipSimple). When I am on my home WiFi I want tasker to kill or either stop CSipSimple from launching. I am new to Tasker and how the whole thing works so I am getting a tad lost in all the options availible to me. I have also browsed the profiles on the Tasker wiki but dont see anything that can do what I want.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Almazick:
It's not that hard to do it. I can give you some ideas.

If %WIFII matches *WorkWiFi*

Load App CSipSimple

Else Kill CSipSimple

Some useful profiles

I am new to this forum and also new to Tasker. But over last few days could make something useful for myself. I'm posting it so that somebody else may find it useful.

I use 2 android phones and receive calls on both frequently. My problem was-

1. When driving, I find it comfortable to use only one phone plugged to my wired headset (I dont use bluetooth hs as it uses more battery). When I plug in my wired headset to one phone, I want the second phone to automatically divert all its calls to the plugged phone.

2. I also need profile to do this - When and if I forget a phone at home / workplace and when I get a missed call on that, I need to get an sms on another phone informing me about the missed call and also the phone number.

3. As an extension of above profile, I should be able to send an sms to the forgotten phone to make it divert all calls to the phone with me. And also I should be able to disable same with another sms.

As for problem no. 1, what i have done is I have created a profile on phone 1 (which will be plugged to headset) with a context >State>headset plugged>entry task--send sms "calldivert" to the second phone. On second phone I have a profile which on detecting a recieved text message from the first phone with "calldivert" content, makes an automatic call to enable unconditional all call divert (in india for my service provider, it is **21*(phone number)#. Exit task (on unplugging the headset) for the profile on the plugged phone is to send another sms "callrevert" to the second phone and on receiving the same second phone makes another automatic call to disable call diverts.

Anybody can suggest a better way of doing the same?

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] shadowhawk2020:
Got this to work last night, thank you! I have an Evo 4G LTE and I was searching XDA for a good tasker profiles. I don't know if it is because I have a different phone, or because I used Ivona TTS engine but I had to adjust it slightly.

I was getting cut off during the read. It would get half way through and stop. I inserted a wait between steps 7 and 8 on the ReadTexts Task and that seemed to clear it up. I assume the profile was moving on too quickly to finish reading. I sent myself several text messages and tested the time for wait. It ended up being about 5 seconds.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] DaveWW00:
couple questions as i continue to setup more things in tasker:

-is there a way to simulate a screen touch using tasker- for example, open an app, and have it "touch" the button to do something in the app

-i have a few tasks (in the car, at home) that turn off the pattern lock. how would I go about making a profile that will automatically turn it back on after a set amount of time of inactivity on the phone. for example, if i have it set to car mode, get out, forget to set it back to normal mode, and then drop or lose the phone, i would like it to automatically turn on the pattern lock after a set time of the phone not being used.

thanks!

Is there any central repository of tasker tasks other than the tasker wiki at wikidot.com (can't post the URL yet) that seems to be out of date?

Would there be a demand for something like this where people can post their tasks for others ?

I can probably build a website that does this and inputs the data the same way as tasker asks for it, or imports the xml file.

I am looking for a way to set my phone to silent when checked in at a theater. I can't find a way to check a specific check in location. Any advice?
