    Choose input device - Keyboard changing

    DenHaz · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm going mad and can't pinpoint the issue.

    Honor View 20, Magic 3.0.0, Android version 10.

    I was ADB authorising Tasker, Join and Autovoice for Android 10 and since then my Android system switches the Keyboard input methods between my keyboard, Tasker and Join, making typing virtually impossible as the keyboard minimises every few seconds.

    I have tried the basics of uninstalling, reinstalling, re-authorising, trying different keyboards installs but nothing holds. I can't find any other similar issues online so it must be something very specific I have done but not sure where to start. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Scene tab crashing

    When I go to the scenes tab and tap the plus sign, I'm prompted to name my scene. As soon as I tap the check mark after naming, Tasker crashes. Backed up data, reinstalled, and restored. Same result.

    Remove multiple Google account restrictions in Autoweb

    Ravi Warrier · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Sometimes you need to have more than one Google account on your phone. 

    But having multiple accounts disables purchases/registration in some autoapps, especially autoweb.

    It would be nice to have this restriction removed as no amount of clearing cache and reinstalling autoweb+autoapps fixes the problem.

    Task: "While/End While" instructions

    Simaus Masaqer · 1 · Last reply by Max Hendrik Backs

    I know that Mateo asked for some sort of loops like "while", but he was answered with "For" loop which in programming works differently.

    Also, I am asking for true "While" loop. To give better view of this concept I am going to share my case: I'd like to hear who calls on the phone. So, AutoNotification comes here and the Tasker, of course. I make three profiles: one with Event->Phone->Phone Ringing, another one with Event->Phone->Missed Call and the last one with Plugin->AutoNotification. The first two just switch value of one shared variable %phoneRings from false, when phone does not

    Store exported items in projects in relevant folders

    Ian Grody · 0 · Posted

    When exporting items from a Project, could they please be placed into relevant sub folders please? This would make it easier finding items when exporting lots from different projects. Maybe as a toggle in case others don't want this?

    Thank you!

    timezone

    Patrick Lucas · 0 · Posted

    Hi

    My device is a Huawei MediaPad M5 tablet running Android 8 and the "Set Timezone" action appears red and cannot be used. This is preventing me from creating a task to update the timezone depending on GPS location.

    I know very little about Android programming but I found the link below and was wondering if it has anything to do with the issue. Please take a look.

    https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/AlarmManager#setTimeZone(java.lang.String)

    activate fingerprint scanner w/o screen blackout

    Logan · 1 · Last reply by Fabian Jiron

    I just noted that my Bank app with fingerprint identification feature, does not need to turn off the display to activate the fingerprint sensor, it merely prompts to place finger on sensor, and the sensor is active and awaiting a print to ID.

    On the new fingerprint Tasks and Profiles that Logcat feature has opened up, Id love to see an option to activate fingerprint sensor without the need to black out the display :)

    Allow Tasker to read OBD status or events. So, Tasker can read the conditions of your vehicle, respond to them or even control your vehicle.

    Linux based Tasker IDE

    Would be great to be able to write code for task on Linux using simple text editors like Geany or the like.  Sometimes it can be somewhat hindering to use the phone only especially if the phone is small.

    Missing permission Notification Access in Second Space

    elread · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I try to set up Event -> Notification under Second Space (MUI11, Android 10).

    The task works well after I save it but in a couple of minutes it stops working and Tasker asks me to set the Notification Access again that I already set. It says: Error still missing permission Notification Access. On the same phone but under First Space is everything ok.

    I tried to reboot the phone. It helps for a while but then it happens again.

    Does anyone know a solution?

    maths adding negative number

    Aase · 7 · Last reply by João Dias

    Yesterday (or possibly one or two days before, I had tasker turned of for a while) one of my tasks that have been working for years started chrashing. After some debugging I've isolated the error to a 'set variable' where I add two other variables using 'do maths'. The problem occurs when the second of the variables added is negative. Trying to replicate the errror I found that if i just tried to set %newvar to e. g. 3+-1 there's no problem, but if i first set %var to e. g. 0-1 (getting a negative result) and the try to

    Google Drive sign-in doesn't work for me.

    Paul Simon · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hello,

    when I try to sign-in / authorize to GoogleDrive I only get a spinner on a white window and then nothing happens. I am on 5.9 now but I am quite sure the problem has been persistent for quite some time and several updates. As a result backup to GD never worked for me. Does anybody have a clue how I could solve this?

    I get the following error message: Unknown Google Error

    Thanks

    Launch App only works if I'm inside tasker

    Cotov · 1 · Last reply by Cotov

    If I set a task to launch an app it will only do it if I have tasker open and running in the foreground and I'm browsing inside it. Otherwise apps aren't launching e.g from home screen with tasker minimised.other things like vibrate on trigger work so the task is initiated. But apps do not launch. Seeing the logs it says all is good and app is launched.

    Example:

    Event: shake up and down -> task: 1) vibrate, 2) launch camera.

    If I'm inside tasker in any menu, if I shake 1 and 2 happen. But if I'm anywhere else,

    More information about which Tasker action is running

    Ravi Warrier · 0 · Posted

    In the notification while a Tasker action is running, there's no more information about which action/task is being executed. 

    In the attachment, you'll see what I mean. This notification has been on the shade since last 9 minutes and I don't know what's happening. Perhaps, the notification can include more details (name or number for anonymous tasks). If multiple tasks are running, then the notification could show a list.

    Invert and Minimal option for Significant Motion event

    Ravi Warrier · 2 · Last reply by Ravi Warrier

    Currently the Significant Motion event works fine, but the problem is that there is no way to trigger anything when such motion has stopped or reduced.

    There could two sub-options for the event:

    1. Minimal - reduced thresholds (to trigger slight movements)

    2. Inverted - No motion is detected (whether significant or minimal)
