    Alarm Clock Event Does Not Trigger

    Robert L Ryan · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    The Alarm Clock event context does not seem to work on my Galaxy S9 with Android 8.0. I am using the stock alarm app. My Tasker version is 5.5

    I have tried both named and unnamed alarms. Here is one of the test profiles I used:

    No toast appears when the alarm goes off.

    Switching GPS on off

    Mark M · 0 · Posted

    Hi, phone is Sony Xperia Z1 running 4.4.4, I've installed Tasker and AutoTools and successfully run adb command line to allow WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS. But I can't get Tasker to turn on GPS. Any ideas? Is it possible? Thanks. (phone is not rooted, i was hoping Auto Tools would make that unnecessary)

    EDIT - ignore me I was doing it wrong! Works - what a great app!

    Phone Ringing Profile stopped working - followup

    Mark Stevenson · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi Joao,

    Thanks for the reply but I've updated to the beta app and the event is still not triggering with CG:Blocked.

    The group selection popup is still titled "Menu Timeout" with duplicates in the list.

    Is there anything else I need to do?

    Thanks,

    Phone Ringing Profile stopped working.

    Mark Stevenson · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm having a problem with a profile that used to work well. I use a "phone ringing" event with caller set to caller group "blocked" to reject calls. However it is no longer triggering when I receive a call from a group member. I decided to re-set the event condition and chose "match against a contact group". The popup that appears is entitled "Menu Timeout" ? and has a a number of duplicate entries including "family" twice, but "blocked" only once. I know the contacts app has had a number of updates and the groups are now 'labels' but what

    Javascriptlet Code text is considered a "password" field for AutoFill services in Android 8+.

    Prasant · 2 · Last reply by Prasant

    Whenever I change my Javascriptlet, I get a message asking me if I want to save my password to my autofill service. This can get very annoying when making a lot of Javascript changes. Could this field be marked as not a password field so that the AutoFill service doesn't look for it?

    Missing functionallity of sending SMS to a contact group

    Andriy V. · 0 · Posted

    Hello, I've spotted a missing functionallity.

     I cannot choose a contact group in event send SMS. When clicking on magnifying lens -> I can choose only single contacts.

    This is how I would have to use the contact group (I have entered CG:Friends manually, because there is no way to choose a group of contacts):

    Tasker crashes when creating task with too many steps

    Pascal Ledoux · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I have a task that's nearing 170 steps in tasker, and whenever I add about 5 more steps, tasker will crash when I try to edit any step of the task... For now I split off my task into two and have both called up when a trigger fires up, but I'll be needing this fixed to finish up the project.

    Couldn't seem to find any solution to this. Tasker is up to date, and I'm running Android 7.1.2.

    Javascript(let) does not set local variables when manual exit() is called

    Richard Kemp · 5 · Last reply by Richard Kemp

    Create a javascriptlet with content `var test = 1`, and follow it with an action to flash %test. You should see a flash containing "1". Now put `exit();` at the end of the javascriptlet, and you will notice that the variable is not set when the flash action happens.

    In summary, JS variables are only translated into Tasker variables when exit() is not called. Is there any way around this? Perhaps a taskerfyVariables() function that could be called before exit() ?

    Tasker Say voice engine bug

    L C · 2 · Last reply by L C

    In using the Say functionality, I have a task that reads out at regular intervals. The voice engine selected is the Google engine and it is the 3rd option in the selection list. When testing the function with the play feature, it works as expected. However, when the task is triggered by the profile, it does not use the Google engine to read. Instead, it appears to take the 1st in the list - in my case it is a different language. 

    It would be great if it can be fixed.

    When I make a HTTP POST request, the %HTTPD variable isn't being set with the response data. My response code is 200 and the output file is being set correctly. But when printing %HTTPD, the string "%HTTPD" is displayed. The response content type is application/json.

    Improved project browsing

    Richard Kemp · 0 · Posted

    When you have many projects, scrolling left and right between them is a pain, especially if you can't remember exactly where a project is positioned relative to the rest.

    It would be good to have some sort of project browser, allowing filtering and sorting, etc.

    Test File File Size Problem

    David White · 4 · Last reply by João Dias

    Used tasker for years on Android 4.4. Now forced onto 7 and uh oh... I used tasker to check presence of a file by testing file size. I believe this is the documented way to go about this. However, on Android 7 I am seeing these in the debug log. It appears that tasker is performing an ls command and that seems right. But it seems it is not prepared for the output it gets. Maybe I am wrong?
