Tasker 5.7.0 beta 10. Crash apk build with Appfactory. Redmi Note 3 SE. Android 9.0

Run Shell event shall be fired when a shell command prints to its standard output (stdout) a line matching a pattern.

Example:

event Run Shell [ Command: getevent Line:*00000004 Use Root:On ]

The typical usage is to monitor keypresses (via getevent utility) and system log records (via logcat utility).

Note: An implementation should ensure that the line buffering only is performed by an operating system and run time libraries. Any other buffering would make the event meaningless.

Perhaps, a virtual terminal (pty) is the best IPC to be used.

Run Shell Max timeout value is 2147483, Any value higher than this passed as a variable crashes tasker.

Steps to Reproduce: 0) Freshly wiped device 1) Install and Launch Tasker 2) Try to restore backup local .xml backup file by navigating to Data->Restore Actual Results: "User Local Backup" was not available as a selection Expected Results: "User Local Backup" available as a selection Workaround: First, select Data->Backup and then Data->Restore->User Local Backup will be available as an option. Environment: Tasker 5.6 on Essential PH-1 with Android 9.0 Reproducibility: Did not try.

Kill App Action With Root On causes this. I think when app is not open.

Description

Not sure if there's anything that can be done, but update to Chrome 72 for Android causes webview to render a blank screen when the source is HTML, works inside Tasker but not as exported app.

I have a reboot profile I want to trigger at 5.30 am. The task works when executed on its own. It would appear that the phone goes into some form of deep sleep and takes tasker with it. I have removed battery optimisation from tasker used use reliable alarms seeing and wake cell option in the monitor preferences. I have used timed profiles for many years in tasker but have never encountered a problem until now.

My phone is Samsun A8 2018 Android 8. Stock room and is not rooted. The profile for reboot is using autoinput.

Hello,

Is Tasker supported for French accented characters? When a pushed notification (from Text Ingredient from IFTTT) reaches Tasker, those accented characters are not recognized by Tasker. What's wrong ?

The list of available activities in "launch app" is not complete. E.g. 3C Toolbox Pro has a reboot menu which is displayed for selection in the activities list of Nova Launcher, but it is missing in the list of Tasker.

Hi,

the shutdown and reboot commands of Tasker don't give alert to other apps what causes some problems. The Tasker help says that this is also an issue of all other apps. But the same commands of 3C Toolbox Pro and of Custom Quick Settings let other apps react correct.

Can you, please, add this to these Tasker commands, too?

Hi. I'm fairly new to tasker, so I'm sorry if this has a very obvious solution. I have this task running (picture attached). It is activated when my car Bluetooth is disconnected from the phone. When it runs, there is a 5-10 second delay between #5 and #6. Is this any way to make this more fluid and have everything back to back? This is the only task that I've had this issue with. Everything else works flawlessly. Thanks!

It would be very helpful to have an action that runs all tasks for a currently active profile. I have manual tasks that, upon completion, change various settings (silent/bt off, wifi off) and when the task is complete the profile conditions may have not changed, so there needs to be something that checks which profile is active and re-run the task for that profile to "put things back" to the way they were.

Hi,

Since my passage to Android P on my Samsung S9, it's impossible to activate WiFi in airplane mode.

Is it tasker problem or Android Pie restriction ?

Thanks.

I need to install Tasker app on my iPhone, not on Samsung phone.    How can this issue be corrected?  

EMUI 9. Huawei P20. Android 9. System force closes Tasker. Battery optimization disabled for Tasker. Very, very annoying .

Using Tasker, Autoinput Root Screen capture and in the same folder used for storage I have a whole (65+) photos from another user including their pictures of hot rods, farm equipment and photos of tree trimming imported to my SD card and saved in the exact folder used for tasker screen capture... Yikes! 

Just like you fixed AutoInput (linked below), could you also apply that same fix to the main Tasker app?

Could we please have options to take control of back/recent button when Authentication activity is used?

In scenes, we can launch them as activities and capture the recent and back buttons and reassign their uses when open. This function would allow to prevent people attempting to bypass the feature.

Thank you.

Is there a way to disable this annoying message in Android 9 or automatically press "allow"?  Otherwise tasker becomes useless

Thank you

Hi, Neither the NearCell, nor the NearWifi/WifiConnected functions work when the Location service is turned off. Cmon' it's not as expected... I have to turn on the location service to get the info: Am I connected to wifi or not??? In this case if I need any info about my location (or the reachability of the Wifi), should I turn on the location service? It's crapy. Android 9 Nokia 7.1 Takser: 5.6
