    My phone does not allow incoming calls while tasker is running

    CHRIS BALSOM · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    Just recently I was getting calls announced by Tasker but then it would immediately end call. I spent 2 days with my network provider thinking it was the phone. I tried my sim in a new phone and had no issues. 

    So I factory reset my phone and once everthing was reloaded without any permissions being given, it worked. Gave tasker the requested permissions and it faulted again. So I did some problem solving and factory reset again. Then loaded app by app back on to the phone. testing after each install.

    This is how I discovered that if I

    Problem running tasks from Google Assistant

    Dan Muller · 5 · Last reply by Xavier Care

    In my car, with the phone connected via Bluetooth, I can open Google Assistant by pressing the steering wheel button. I can then say, "Run <task name> with Tasker" and it will work, but only if the phone screen is on. If the screen is off, GA responds with, "Sorry, I didn't understand that".

    I believe this to be an issue with Tasker (rather than GA) because, under the same conditions, I can run other apps with no problem. Tasker is the only one that fails this way. Thus, it's a failure unique to the GA/Tasker integration.

    Some important information:

    Undocumented delay during sleep mode

    David Spector · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm a beginner. My device is TCL A3 and is sold by Tracfone. It runs Android 11.

    When I write a set of Profiles and Tasks to manage my screen power automatically, it works fine when rotating the device quickly. But when I leave the display in Off/Lock/Sleep mode for more than just a few seconds, the device stays off after I rotate the device (to turn it on) for 2 minutes 3 seconds.

    After trying many option changes, I discovered that turning system Do Not Disturb mode Off fixes the problem.

    This is not documented anywhere that I can

    Tasker with Autonotification on EMUI 12

    Andreas Krechel · 2 · Last reply by Paul Manning

    Hi.

    I'm using Tasker and Autonotification quite a while now and I love it.

    This week I got the EMUI 12 (still Android 10) update on my Huawei Mate 20 pro. 

    Now all profiles that are using Autonotification are not working anymore. 

    My guess is that is because Huawei changed the notification panel. There is now a seperate panel for notifications and quick settings. It seems that Autonotification no longer can read the notifications. 

    Is this a known issue? Is there a work around? 

    Thanks.

    music track changed - trigger also when music is started in Tasker

    schrott97 · 0 · Posted

    the profile music track changed works when the change is due to an external media player. When you play music with Tasker using  the "Music Play" task, the profile does not trigger (and therefore the song metadata are not available).

    Stop multiple tasks with a timer or a kill function and limit number of parallel tasks

    A. · 1 · Last reply by Sunny D

    Hi João, 

    I kindly ask you to implement a feature to stop looping tasks or tasks running indefinitely long to stop after a specific period. (Just the other day I had a task running for more than two thousand seconds, although it usually just takes seconds.

    In addition, I would like to ask you to limit the number of parallel tasks to a given number. I need more than one or two tasks but only a few of the same tasks running at the same time. For the time being, I can only say to stop the current or the new

    [ Sockets ] - Add Profiles and Actions to use sockets in Tasker

    GlitchYou · 0 · Posted

    Could add sockets to give an extra extension to receive events and kind of allow the user to create new events

    I think it could have a profile with the event type (optional)

    And it returns maybe even in %evtprm

    I would also need an action to start/stop the execution socket with the address (optional with localhost by default) the port and other fields I may have forgotten

    With all the data that the user sent from any device by some language or by some action like send sockets to send with the event type and the information to be

    Tasker battery drain Samsung Galaxy S21 Android 12

    rma1rma · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi!

    I'm having problems with Tasker draining battery. I use tasks for auto sync every hour, Cell near for wifi, auto sync on when power any and a gesture to start a app fhen flip phone. 

    For some reason after few days, battery starts draining faster. When I disable Tasker, exit and remove it from background, start Tasker again and enable it, everything works again. Then after few days battery again starts to drain faster. When I do the described steps, it works again a few days and so on.

    I notice the battery drain in the morning, after charging

    Expanded text field for variable value

    urkindagood · 1 · Last reply by Abhishek M

    Continuation from this reddit comment

    Can we have an option to expand text field for variable value in event context?

    https://i.ibb.co/fFPzDy0/1648669094.png

    It's hard to view the full value if it the text used is long enough

    Similar thig happen with variable search replace as well.

    Could add a way to skip tasks of a project when exporting maybe with some configuration in the properties

    Because it is usually easier to create profiles, tasks and scenes to test the specific project

    Well, sometimes it takes a long time to go from one project

    option for a scene to have accelerometer-moving background

    André Kjellstrup · 0 · Posted

    Recently, Taskoer got lots of neat visual goodies.

    The one I miss is for a box to contain graphics (larger than box). Or smaller, tiled , graphics... 

    Then move it all based on acceleration (like some wallpapers do)

    Having such background option, would dramatically increase the eye-candy level of Tasker.
