    Use Shizuku as background alternative to ADB and/or Root

    Christian WS · 1 · Last reply by Christian WS

    https://github.com/RikkaApps/Shizuku

    The very, very short description of Shizuku is that it is an App that allow other apps to use actions reserved for ADB or Rooted devices.

    Shizuku is on the PlayStore, and the whole procedure is incredibly easy in comparison to Root, and even ADB Wifi.

    And yeah, I know you've implemented ADB Wifi shenanigans, but If the user has Tasker and any of these apps, then they are likely not going to want to do a separate procedure for Tasker. Unlike ADB Wifi and the Permissions App, it also means that tutorials and guides are offloaded to Shizuku

    Test Display/Status Bar Offset reports negative number, but Scene drawing at a negative vertical offset is off screen

    William Faulk · 0 · Posted

    On my phone, in portrait, Test Display/Status Bar Offset reports "-115" and if I draw a scene at (0,-115), it shows at the top left corner of the screen, over the status bar, as expected.

    In landscape, Test Display/Status Bar Offset reports "-77", but if I draw a scene at (0,-77), nothing appears (assuming the scene is less than 77 pixels tall). If I draw the scene at (0,0), though, the scene appears at the top left corner, over the status bar.

    This is on an Asus Zenfone 9. There is a cutout in the upper left for the camera

    Task Action for Manually Checking/Updating Various Monitors (particularly such as Cell Near)

    AllMyTasks · 0 · Posted

    Sometimes a user may want to manually (via a Task Action) check/update a state instead of waiting for the relevant monitor to update it. So this request/idea is to add something like the following:

    TaskerFunction CheckNow(CELL_NEAR)

    And in the above there'd be a list provided of various things that could be manually checked (such as WIFI_NEAR, etc).

    This request is prompted by the following Reddit thread:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/11t0ea9/help_use_a_separate_task_to_force_a_cell_near/

    Thanks for your consideration! :)

    HTTP Request support for mTLS

    Argo__ · 1 · Last reply by virtual

    Would it be possibile to add support for mTLS in HTTP Request?

    My use case is that the backend I need to connect uses a Cloudflare's rule which allows connections only if a specif Client Certificate is provided and just by using Tasker I can not connect to it.

    A workaround I found is to use Termux's plugin but things get more complex, slow and hard to maintain.

    Implement Android Enterprise API (Device Owner)

    Nick Betcher · 3 · Last reply by Nick Betcher

    There's a huge, Huge, HUGE untapped resource out there: Device Owner (NOT Device Admin). You can do all sorts of wild things that most experienced Android powerusers had no idea even exists and tend to try to root their device (unnecessarily) to accomplish. SecureTask accomplishes this goal, but with the developer having suddenly abandoned all of his apps and began ignoring emails about acquisition of the source code (they're all free apps), we need a long-term replacement.

    SecureTask is also very vulnerable to external apps because it performs no password verification when it receives the plugin fire intents, even if

    Add Keyguard Lock State Listener (API Level 33; Android 13)

    Nick Betcher · 3 · Last reply by Nick Betcher

    New In Android 13:

    KeyguardManager  |  Android Developers

    Please add support for the new KeyguardLockedStateListener class so that, in addition to the, "Display Unlocked" we may also have, "Display Locked." From a security hardening perspective, this is an essential feature.

    This allows for features like putting the device into a paranoid-level of security so that -- in the case of a malicious actor -- if someone uses known-exploits (via USB) to remove a user's secured lockscreen while the device is on and logged into, Tasker can protect the user. This, combined with amazing features like an "Overlay+/Allow Outside of Boundaries"

    Tasker auto recovery error

     

    Sometimes Tasker fails, and this interrupts my work. These are my ideas

    • Send a third person the fail error with the following information
      • Error message, where specify the task and the steps that fail
      • Send the runlog.txt file
    • Add a Profile where the user can decide what would like to do when this happens

    Better UX import/export projects

    Productivity · 0 · Posted

    I would like to add some suggestions about this

    • When sharing the project with another person, you have to confirm one by one all the tasks that already exist in the project, I think adding a "Yes to all" option would solve it
    • Would be great if the tasks, profiles and scenes stays in the same project and keep the order
    • An option to choose only to import/export a task, profile or scene
    • Auto deploy project to different instances, a way to define several phones by instance, so when I change from testing to production this could be easier

    ADB "helper" Service/proxy

    MattH · 0 · Posted

    For some time I've been using tasks & associated Termux scripts from enable_adb_wifi_on_device_boot_android_11 to enable ADB Wifi on my phone following a reboot.

    Since upgrading to Android 13 the task dependent on Read_Logs doesn't work (without relying on ADB!) so I've made an additional task (triggered by VolDn) to read input fields via AutoInput, parse for IP:port, and pass this to the Termux script to connect to the IP:port presented and enable ADB.

    Because over time more Tasker functionality seems to need a reliance on ADB (Read_Logs in Android 13 being prime example) my thought is to have tasker run

    Allow an empty string in Variable Set action

    virtual · 0 · Posted

    Please allow to set a variable to an empty string, even with a warning if required.

    There are several cases when this is useful, for example when combining multiple variables when you want one of them to concat without any value. Or when formatting with JSON a string like:

    and you want the var to be a string which could be empty. Yes, you can apply the quotes inside the var, but it is not as intuitive; or you can use Variable Convert with a null URL code, but this requires 2 actions.

    Task silent overwritten

    Hello. I have a common task for several projects. When exporting a project, the common task is exported correctly. But when importing a project, the task is quietly overwritten. Can the tasker show a warning or error that a task with same name already exists and interrupt the import? I have to first delete an existing task, export or rename it and then import project.

    Real Beacon Support (not via inappropriate BT Near)

    ckollars · 1 · Last reply by ckollars

    Beacons are so different from Classic Bluetooth devices they need their own tools. Although the name is the same (Bluetooth), both the operation and the usage are completely different. First the theory, then some specifics--

    Theory -In addition to being BLE devices, Beacons are a] off (not advertising) for several seconds at a time, b] have use cases that need to distinguish "nearness" as close as a few feet, c] have use cases that require responding in just a few seconds -even when off, and d] broadcast a _very_ faint signal to minimize power use (which means something as innocuous

    REMINDER handling in CALENDAR INSERT action

    Dennis Pesin · 0 · Posted

    When I add event in my system calendar via "Calendar Insert" action, there is no option to turn on reminder for this event. My event is put into calendar, but for the calendar to remind me of it, I have to go to the calendar and turn on reminder manually, adjusting when the reminder should trigger. I want to turn it on and adjust in the tasker action.
