I was just looking through the list of conditions available and saw that for Bluetooth connections, there are 3 conditions: Bluetooth Devices Connected, Bluetooth Devices Disconnected and Bluetooth Devices Not Connected. Interesting why there isn't a similar last condition for Wifi, i.e. Wifi Network Not Connected. Perhaps, the dev left it out accidentally.

Anyway, I've managed to find a workaround for my Wifi disconnect event and the set up is as follows:

Wifi (disconnected)

Advanced

Delay: 2 minutess

Conditions

Wifi Network Disconnected: <any Wifi network>

Charging Status: using battery

Actions

Toggle Wifi: Wifi Off (if not connected)

The event doesn't turn wifi off if wifi is connected 2 mins after the event is triggered. I created this event to save battery, 'cos sometimes I forgot to turn off wifi when I leave the area covered by the hotspot. My phone SGS2 is on stock ROM, so it's quite bad on the battery to have wifi on. Just wanna share it in case someone is looking at setting up something similar.

Little buggy but still good

First off, thx for creating such useful apps. I've been using my Android phone for more than 15 months now since 2.1 to 2.33 and now on 4.0.3 ICS ROM.

I didn't get a chance to know Llama until few days ago after I flashed my phone to ICSSGS. I've been using Llama for few days now, and been working well except ringtone volume and notification volume now tied together in 4.0 so that to me there is a little confusing.

Anyway... this morning, I just noticed that the Llama icon on the notification area is not visible anymore. I tried everything to bring it back but failed to do so. I don't even know if Llama is still working at the moment.

Should I uninstall and re-install it?
[Android Apps and Games] nomisunrider:
I have a really weak cell signal at my home, so it keeps thinking I'm entering and leaving my home area. I have tested checking and un-checking the "Ignore Invalid/No Signal Cell" option, but it appears to make no difference.

Does that option work in ICS?
[Android Apps and Games] chamonix:
I am known to be a wakelock/awake/alarm chaser and I must say that I really like the small footprint of Llama when it comes to location detection. I am not ready to pay the high price of poorly coded location to turn my wifi on/off when I get/leave home and you have done a hell of a good job on that.
[Android Apps and Games] Warthog01:
Hi

I've just loaded Llama to control my htc Desire according to my location. I think it's a great app, but there's only one thing I haven't been able to get it to do: toggle my APN on or off as an action. The app confirms the action, but nothing happens and I have to toggle the APN manually--not a great drama, I know, but I'm betting there's a way to do it.

Any ideas out there?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] finneginsfast:
Same thing here only with my wireless. Llama had been pretty reliable in the past but for the past few months I'd say it's only firing on about 50% of the times it should. My location is being recognized but the event not toggled.

I hope someone could chime in here for some advice.
[Android Apps and Games] finneginsfast:
No answers huh? I also checked for the log that's supposed to be located in /sdcard/llama/llamalog.txt but there is no such log file. I've also tried to unistall and reinstall, still not there...
[Android Apps and Games] benjymous:
Is there a way to run events when Llama goes into the "Unknown profile" mode (e.g. when you manually modify the volume)?

I guess a "Is unknown profile" condition would do the trick.
[Android Apps and Games] asd108b:
turning off autosync and background data

I am trying to setup an event to turn off autosync and background data whenever I am outside a wifi zone. I would like to leave mobile data on so that I can access gps and maps if I need to when driving etc.

However, I do not see background data as one of the options under actions. I have a tmobile my touch 4g.

Let me know

Thanks

[Android Apps and Games] gregaste:
Ok, serious post then, since last one didn't met its audience... :)

I'm one happy user of Llama, using it for sound profiles and battery mostly.

Today I tried to create a shortcut for a quiet profile named "2h Off" for theater and stuff.

I played with it and even make an action "wallpaper", just for fun.

Now I've got 2 questions :

- Is there any way to edit that shortcut?

I don't find it in the "event list"

- I thought the wallpaper would change back, but since none of my previous event cares about it, I've got to change it manuelle or edit ALL my previous évents.

I tried with à variable, but it's the same pb.

So, is there à way to make an event like this :

When this event is not True anymore then "... "

?

Anyone know if the llama map add on works with Android 4.0? Just recently got ICS on my phone and dont see an option to set a map point anymore.
[Android Apps and Games] djmasters:
Having a little problem since switching to ICS with ring & notification volume changes. This all worked exactly as expected when I was on GB. I downloaded the 5/28/2012 Beta, backed up, removed, installed Beta, restored, but it didn't help.

For work I have a "vibrate only" profile that sets the ring and notification volumes to 0. I don't want to set the phone to "silent" so that the phone will still ring for Noisy Callers. a) Ringtone is only changing to 1 instead of 0. b) Notification doesn't appear to be changing at all.

Does something work different in ICS than GB and I need to make adjustments??
[Android Apps and Games] Bwangster12:
How would I go about putting a shortcut on the homescreen to "lock" a sound profile?

I see that I can place a 'Normal' or 'Silent' shortcut on my homescreen so I can quickly switch to that profile... but what if I am going into a meeting or a movie, hit that shortcut... will the profile be locked? Or do I have to go into the app and choose to lock it that way?
[Android Apps and Games] test123456789012:
EDIT: Nevermind

On latest CM9 nightly (SGS i9000), GPS toggle isn't working. Maybe Llama requires root access. I think this toggle is supposed to be working with CM, right? With AutomateIt it works.

Could you implement this in a next version, or do you have a work-around?

Really cool app BTW! :)

cheers!

Read this in your FAQ:

So, everything is fine. :)
[Android Apps and Games] snick8467:
Enjoying this app, got my location stuff setup no problem. Can't for the life of me figure out how to handle an incoming call or sms from a specific number to guarantee it gets thru no matter the sound profile...

I've read/skimmed all 29 pages of this and didn't see any similar conversation...any suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] Finner42:
I've had a similar problem with volume issues in ICS, that I didn't have on GB. I have it set up so that when my headphones are plugged in, it switches to a headset profile - the ring and notification volumes are quite low, so as to not hurt my ears :)

The problem is, that after I receive an SMS while listening to music, the music volume suddenly increases dramatically... not sure why this happens, but it's quite a frustrating problem, and dangerous for my ears.. :/
[Android Apps and Games] snick8467:
i emailed the developer and he let me know about noisy contacts (when you edit profiles, scroll down) works nicely for ph calls, but not at all with sms yet

A function that recognizes areas with the wlan network would be great. I use Llama on my galaxy tab 10.1 wifi only. So no chance to create areas.
[Android Apps and Games] RoyalPiranha:
To make Llama recognize Wifi networks, go to settings -> experimental stuff and enable 'Check for WiFi Networks'.
[Android Apps and Games] Bwangster12:
I don't know about anyone else, but I can't seem to get the "cell polling" to work when screen is off. I have played around with the options on my HTC Thunderbolt, but it doesn't seem to work.

Set Cell Polling to enabled and have tried it with "Awake while polling" checked and unchecked. I still notice the profiles not activating til I turn on the screen. Only thing I haven't tried is "Screen on while polling" but I don't want the screen turning on.
[Android Apps and Games] Creomortis:
Anyone know how to create an action to check for updates for installed apps then auto download and apply them?
[Android Apps and Games] AndroidNeophyte:
You can do this in google play alone, i think... Go into google play, then go to your installed apps by pressing options button, then select one installed app and check "automatic apply updates"
[Android Apps and Games] djmasters:
Google Play - Menu - Settings - Auto-update apps.
[Android Apps and Games] Servicetree:
I really like this app but I think it is failing me due to user error. I can't seem to get it to do what I want it to.

I want it to lock the screen when I leave the house but I don't want the screen to be locked when I am at home. I originally set the event as leaving the area but it didn't always pick up the 'same area'. This is what I have attempted but it seems to just lock the screen every time it goes to sleep:

Can anyone help?

Search the Play Store for Unlock With Wifi. Read the instructions! You cannot manage location dependent locksreen usage with Llama as effectively as with this app. Good luck!

Android Intents

Hello,

This is probably one of the few apps where I donated to the developer even though there are no additional features offered. It is a great app, much simpler to use than Tasker.

I find that with intents, Llama is a whole new animal (no pun intended). For example, I have my GNex end forward my Google Voice to my cell (via Locale plugin) and start Groove IP via intent when I am near one of my predefined Wifi APs. When I leave those APs, it resumes the GV forwarding to my cell and shuts down Groove IP via intent again.

That being said, I find documentation on the web for Android intents severely lacking. I know it is up to each app's developers to publish that information. Is there a repository where this information is published?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] rye&ginger:
I find the delay action feature does not work. eg. leave Home area, change to Loud profile and turn wifi off delay for 2 minutes.

This scheme does not trigger if the delay action feature is used. It does work if it is not.

Not sure why, dev was not able to clarify the issue when I reported it. So perhaps try to see if it works without the delay first, just to trouble shoot.

Anyone have tips on how to help both of us?
[Android Apps and Games] kizax:
i want to habe a profile with different volumes of the ringer and the notifications. when i am in a rea i dont want to hear the notifications but i want to here the ringer.

i am using a galaxy s3. i can set this manualy on the phone, but when i try to set this automatically with an profile and a rule, llama cannot do that, because i get an error message that this isnt allowed in ics.
[Android Apps and Games] Волк:
On some ICS builds you had one volume control for ringer and notification. I think you can still create the profile, and just clear the warnings.

Overlapping cells

Since my office is close to my home, both places have several towers and some are overlapped (1 maybe). I found Llama will switch back and forth due to that overlapping tower. Hence, I wonder if there is a way to prevent fast switch but force Llama to monitor towers for a period of time and then make decision on the location. Better yet, if the signal strength ratios among towers can be taken into consideration, the decision may be even more accurate. This may be a crude way to mimic triangulation.

Just wondering if this has been implemented or proposed to the developer before.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Number R09:
have Llama lock the profile for a number of hours once it switches to your chosen profile. that's how i keep Llama from flip-flopping in cross over zones in my area.
[Android Apps and Games] dukeja:
I also found out that I can "ignore" those overlapping towers.

More interestingly, I start to use the wifi locating from Android (in Experimental). And it seems to work nicely. Use the combination of cell tower to adaptive wifi location checking time saves battery life. I'll see what's the impact on my battery life.

Another way to do it would be use Llama variable and some math to cook some home-made location decision...
[Android Apps and Games] Number R09:
it's good to have WiFi available, it opens more options for switching. if you are using the wifi at work, you could base your profile on that network's connection status, rather than using the experimental wifi location settings. throw in a "day of the week" or "time of day" rule in there and you should have it fool-proof.
[Android Apps and Games] ironia.:
-is possible to disable the cell recognition? i don't use this function

-in which way can i indicate 2 hours into event?? I tried to us OR without success

pe I want to activate the profile work from 8.00 to 12.00 and 15.00 to 20.00

tnx for help
[Android Apps and Games] gsrrr:
1. Just don't set any actions based on location. I do not think it will affect anything.

2. I don't understand what you are trying to do here.

3. Is this part of question 2? To activate a profile for a certain amount of time, just create a new Event that triggers at 8am. Action will be change profile to Work and lock for X number of hours (under advance menu).
[Android Apps and Games] ironia.:
tnx

i don't have any action cell based, but cells still be recognized is ok??

2nd question: I want to activate the profile 'work' (example) from 8.00 to 12.00 and 15.00 to 20.00 it's possible to do it in only one event?
[Android Apps and Games] gsrrr:
1. sure, why wouldn't it be okay?

2. can't be 1 event because your actions are different, one is for 4 hours and the second is for 5 hours.
[Android Apps and Games] if0rg0t:
I have an event configured while I'm at work to keep the phone in airplane mode, and periodically turn it on for a few minutes, every half hour or so (I'm in a bad signal area - want to conserve battery).

I have it configured as a repeating event, every 30 minutes. The action it does is: turn airplane mode on. It also queues an event to turn airplane mode off. That queue'd event has a delay of 26 minutes. So it turns out that every 30 mins, the phone is in airplane mode for the first 26 minutes, then for 4 minutes airplane mode is switched off, and the cycle repeats as long as the condition for the initial repeating event is true (location based: at work).

Now, I want to make sure that it doesn't turn on airplane mode while I'm in the middle of a call, or while it is ringing. There is a condition that I can add to the repeating event "Not in call" .. but I don't see one for "Not ringing" (there is one for ringing). There is also no generic logical "not" operation (as there is for AND and OR). Am I missing something, is there a way around this - or is it a limitation for the time being?
[Android Apps and Games] chrismcnally:
AMEN BROTHER! I would like to start a thread here where we can document android intents to use with Llama.
[Android Apps and Games] JDM STi:
Excuse me if this has been asked and brought up before... I am on ICS 4.0.4 with latest Llama installed. I remembered I did not have the following problem until recently 4.0.4 rom flashed to my phone followed with a new Llama install.

Issue: when using "Activate and Lock" to any one of my profiles there is notification message shown on screen every once a few moment (not sure how often but I do see it more than once) until cancel the profile locking. Problem is I cannot set "Notification Mode" to Ongoing icon (no notification) as the app said Llama-error: Ongoing icon notification not supported by Gingerbread.

How could we get rid of the ongoing on screen notification message when using "Activate and Lock"?

TIA!
[Android Apps and Games] greg232:
I have some feature requests for that great app:

1) Possibility of setting the action delay in seconds (currently minimum 1 minute).

2) New action: CPU clock change.

3) Ability to change the position of conditions. This will enable to put the most complex condition (e.g. checking active app condition every 100 miliseconds) to the end of the condition list and drop checking for all matching conditions after excluding the first simple one what might require less CPU operations.

4) Possibility to toggle actions in constant intervals.

There are also some toggles that do not function well.

1) Toggling brightness works always only when testing, but not in real operation.

2) Toggling APN on does not seem to work as I cannot use mobile data after I switch it on again, but I will leave out toggling that one as I'm not sure if toggling APN off at night gives any additional battery savings.

edit: I figured out that when trying to enable APN at the same time as disabling airplane mode the test message is "you have no APNs", only repeated testing toggles APN on. Single APN on toggle just doesn't work.

3) Killing google play store does not work, maybe because the app name differs when choosing it in 'run application' and 'kill application (root)'.

hy. use llama long time ago.. now i want to do a rule that bluetooth switches on or off even when wlan is connected or disconnected. this works for me only in way that bluetooth off when wlan connects, but not when wlan disconnects :-(

tried much but don't work. only work even when wlan completely turn off but that's not what i want. wlan should be stay on.

has somebody that constellation running and it works?

Has anyone compared the battery use of Llamas cell based location with Llamas experimetal android positioning?

I use cell based positioning for over a year now. However, i find it not accurate enough. With it I get a radius of aprox. 2 Km around my home as home zone that triggers for example wifi and stops 3g. Llamas experimetal android positioning is much more accurate I think (150 m radius). Howeverm I have no idea if this much more power intensive compared to cell positioning.

As I don't like to rewrite my uncounted rules just to be disapointed with Llamas experimetal android positioning's battery consumtion an lateron having to rewrite all rules again I would like to ask here if anyone has made concrete experiances with it?

best regards

P.S.: I already tested WLAN positioning (every 5 minutes) some time ago and this resulted in lots of wakeloks and approx. 2% additional battery loss per hour compared to simple cell positioning.
[Android Apps and Games] Skubacb:
Quick question. Donated but Llama kept failing so I thought to reinstall. Must I donate just to do a reload of the app. BTW understand computers well but am a compete nub to Android
[Android Apps and Games] rye&ginger:
I'd imagine cell polling uses less power as you always have cell radio on anyway. Sounds like the experimental feature uses WiFi and maybe GPS, which will use more battery.

I can test though!

Android 4.1.1. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
[Android Apps and Games] diddsen:
no support here from llama creator's?

hmm, via email i became no answer... the best app is nothing without support :(
[Android Apps and Games] Rintenfinten:
No, android positioning does not use wifi nor gps. It takes a mixture of cell information an IP backround data to locate you.

Here is a summary of my tests:

Cell positioning: nearly no battery usage, accuracy depends on cells, I got an accuracy of approx 500-1000m radius.

Android positioning: the same accuracy as Cell or slighlty better (400-800m), however more battery usage because you have to switch on data / wifi all the time.

WIFI positioning: More accurate (approx. 200-300m), however many wakelogs because wifi is switched on every 1-5 minutes (depends on your settings). If you take 5 minutes you can be far off your home, so accuracy goes down this way. If you take 1 minute you are quite accurate, however battery drains even faster.

GPS: very accurate (5-25m outdoors, inddors no or worse signal) with very high battery usage.

==> for me, cellpositioning is best because no battery drain with usable accuracy even without gps, wifi or data connection.
[Android Apps and Games] diddsen:
@rintenfinten

smartphone without using data... what is this?

permanently wifi and data on ;)

you said that only data is enough that work... i think not.

i tested it and no positioning... only if wifi is connected.

so... think that cell based is good but not perfect.
[Android Apps and Games] mstevens:
I haven't compared battery use because Android positioning places me about 400 Km from my house when I am home.
[Android Apps and Games] Rintenfinten:
Moin! ;)

I always have data or wifi on since this week too. Llama is very useful! Only during night I have the flightmode on. ;)

Just checked android positioning wih only data on. I entered google maps and got a quite good hit. As said I think ist about 500-800m radius.

However I get nearly exact the same accuracy with cell positioning, so why spend the battery on 1 android positioning check per minute? (If you set it on 5 minutes it can happen that you are 2 km out of the area before the system realizes it.)

So cell positioning is the best solution for me too.
[Android Apps and Games] buralien:
Thanks for this great app, I am using it to great effect on my phone.

Is there any chance to have a condition "GPS state" (on/off)?

Is there any chance to have an action to change CPU clock?

These are the only 2 missing pieces I have found during 400+ days of usage.

Keep up the good work!
[Android Apps and Games] diddsen:
gps on off will never work because it's a secure thing... apps could looking where your positions... and this not allowed, so... google will never do this
[Android Apps and Games] buralien:
Many GPS enabled apps will warn you if the GPS is off. How can they do that without checking the status?
