    battery drain

    netbird · 0 · Posted

    Is it possible that Tasker will present a list of profiles and tasks sorted by their energy consumption in the past 24H or 7 days? In addition, is it possible to add an action that will present the energy consumption at the end of a task?

    Access Tasker environment functions from actions

    Joe Cornelius · 0 · Posted

    It would be extraordinarily helpful if Tasker provided actions that let us use some or all of the same underlying Tasker management functions that the Tasker environment and Task Editor use.

    Here are some examples of what I'm asking for:

    An action that returns a tasks's cdate and/or edate.  It could accept the taskname as a parameter.

    An action that recognized which task(s) is/are highlighted in a project's Task view would work well with the requested cdate/edate action.  (And a similar action that recognizes selected actions while I'm in the Task Editor.)

    An action that works in the Task Editor

    Add an %item_index variable to each item in a scene's menu, enabling unique images for each list item in a menu

    thomas · 0 · Posted

    Currently in scene menus (those are the lists), every item in the list reuses the same image. The only way to give each item a unique thumbnail image is if it's manually input. For variable input, it's impossible.

     

    This variable would enable variable-populated menus to have unique images for each item.  For example, if your list contains a list of image files within a folder, you'd be able to display a thumbnail of each image in its entry in the list.  And if you were displaying a list of songs, you could show a thumbnail for each song.

    Display issues with multiple custom toasts

    frypf · 1 · Last reply by frypf

    Hi João!

    The fade-in animation on custom toasts is a real dealbreaker for me at the moment in terms of actually being able to use them. I really wish that new toasts would display instantly rather than fading in slowly over the top of the previous one. This is especially jarring and obvious when displaying different text or background colours in quick succession.

    If we could remove the fade-in completely and furthermore make sure only one toast is shown at any one time (either implicitly when creating a new custom toast, or via a separate 'cancel existing custom toasts' action),

    Event for lost data connection

    Thomas Larsen Wessel · 0 · Posted

    I need my Android phone to warn me (eg by playing a tune) when it loses internet connectivity. As far as I can tell, such an event has not been defined in Tasker. Am I right? Could you add such an even to the app?

    As far as I can tell, it should not be hard to implement such an event. Source: https://medium.com/@veniamin.vynohradov/monitoring-internet-connection-state-in-android-da7ad915b5e5. 

    One useful scenario - Why I need it:

    I do some basic surveying using SparkFun Surveyor. In order to give very precise results it must connect to the internet to retrieve correction data. This is called RTK/NTRIP. I

    Allow "Stop" Action to Interrupt "Wait"ing Task

    Nick Betcher · 0 · Posted

    In my opinion, despite task priorities and all the other fancy (yet complicating) features/factors, a Stop action should actually stop a task (hey, concept! Haha), regardless of what it is doing. On some levels this may be difficult, but stopping a task that is currently in a Wait really shouldn't be one of those difficult situations, regardless if Tasker is using Android's alarm scheduling system or an internal timer system.

    It's trivial to test:

    - Wait in one task

    - Attempt to Stop it in another during the other task's Wait action time.

    The task is not only not stopped,

    Call forwarding not working anymore when tasker is installed

    Patrick F · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Since the latest android update (Samsung A13, One UI v5.1) the call forwarding is not possible anymore.

    Neither with ussd codes nore via "normal" phone -> settings.

    If i deinstall tasker and restart phone, it is working again.

    This function loss is quite a big problem for us, because we use it for an automatic call forwarding (on-call service).

    Please help me, thanks!

    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

    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

    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.

    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.

    Wifi Near State Doesn't Work when Screen Off

    Randy · 1 · Last reply by Randy

    Device OnePlus CPH2399 ("Nord 2T") Android 12 Tasker version 6.0.10

    The state Wifi Near doesn't trigger when device's screen is off (device is locked). Only first after the device's screen goes on (device gets unlocked) does the state trigger. Other actions e.g. Beep, Perform Task, etc., can trigger when screen is off. Location Net context also can trigger when screen is off.

    Tasker should make a native workaround analog to Net/Cell Wake Screen.

    Custom Notification Icon can't use any variables

    Angelo Ornopia · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I tried creating a battery status of my Mi Band 5 using notify but I noticed that only % appears but the value of the variable is correct. (Ex: 26)

    I also tried putting the number manually, it works. But if I'm using variable, it's not working. I even tried using Variable set just to convert the match from A1 to another variable but it also doesn't work and it shows %b instead. Meaning, it's not really converting the variable into its value. Just %battery.
