The Javascriptlet action changes the values of variables that contain backslash escape codes by evaluating them, even if the JavaScript code doesn't touch that variable.

This task demonstrates the problem:

Bug in Javascriptlet (127) <Other backslash codes also break> A1: Variable Set [ Name:%data To:\\ Recurse Variables:Off Do Maths:Off Append:Off Max Rounding Digits:3 ] <Stores 2> A2: Test Variable [ Type:Length Data:%data Store Result In:%data_length ] <Code must contain an identifier, even if it is commented out.> A3: JavaScriptlet [ Code:// something Libraries: Auto Exit:On Timeout (Seconds):45 ] <Stores 1> A4: Test Variable [ Type:Length Data:%data Store Result In:%data_length_after ]

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.

When will you integrate this feature into taker or join..

Hi!

I am writing an app that downloads images into an folder. I was using Tasker to move and combine files from multiple folders into one folder. However, I saw that my app crashes when I re-download an image, that I downloaded before and then moved with tasker.

contentResolver.insert gives me: SQLiteConstraintException: UNIQUE constraint failed: files._data where _data is the path of the by then non-existent file, and I need to use contentResolver.delete to delete the empty row from the MediaStore, after that I can download the file.

Now, I was investigating this issue and found that if I use other apps

- installed tasker paid version from playstore on previous device - migrated to new device without issue - de-googled new device - tasker now displays message stating it is expired trial version what to do ?

Hmm, Time Context has no "exit task" so I cannot accept the suggested solution here:

Thanks a lot :)

When adding a minute to a time variable, the result drops any trailing zero, invalidating the resultant time variable.

OR, the timer doesn't respect 1 digit minute decimal value of time variable.  Which is odd, because it is fine with the 1 digit hour portion.

Workaround: add a minute to the time, split the time by "." then append 00 to the 2nd portion and and select the left most 2 char before finally putting it all back together.

I did a Factory Reset on an old phone - Android 2.1.1. Play Store will not load & a side-loaded Tasker expired without validating. I have the Google purchase email but no validation code included.

This does not work though, I need to do this to get in response to the site location key but always the error. You couldn't see how to make this work, maybe even using the curl I tested in Termux that worked.

I have a task that looks for a certain word in an SMS message and plays a media sound file. Could not seem to get it to consistently work. I have a Samsung S10+ and phone just got upgraded to Android Q

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?

Autolocation related: autolocation activity triggered and the specific task is performed but it continuely keep performaing the task e.g. i set state autolocation activity driving, then perform task to open google map. but performs well but keep performing it again and again.

A created scene won't appear when the conditions are met. The other tasks in the sequence play just fine, and when I play the sequence manually it appears. I've already tried incompatibility management, all the "how to show" options, and waiting a time before showing it, with no results. I'm using MIUI 11 with no root permissions.

Also, the scene stays greenlighted as if it was running

Tasker seems to be having some trouble accessing some of calendars on my Google account (but not all of them).

As demonstrated in the attached screencast, the same event, moved from one calendar to a new one I created to test the issue, is either seen or not by the calendar state condition in tasker.

At first I believed it to be caused by the accent in the calendar name ("CongésVieux" in the screencast), but the new calendar created for the test also include the same accent ("Congés").

The problem also appears with events in the Google local holidays calendar

Hi there, 

After the update for my Samsung Galaxy S10 to Android 10. The wifi connected variable does not trigger my action eventhough my phone is clearly connected to the specific wifi SSID I've set. Before the update, everthing was working flawlessly.

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

Paul

When a task puts an AutoTools Dialog List on screen, and subsequently we tap the Android Home or Recent button, then :::

[1:] not only the AutoTools List instance disappears unrecoverably, since it won't figure in the Android "Recent" scroller, 

but also [2:] attempting to run the same task again will fail at putting the expected Dialog List onto screen, unless AutoTools is Force Stopped first (*>) [or the device rebooted],

and moreover [3:] the same failure then also applies to whichever other task would need to generate any other AutoTools List dialog. __________________________________________________________

As per "https://tasker.joaoapps.com/userguide/en/icons.html#user" I installed icons.  I can select these for tasks, but there is no way to select the icons in Action Edit->Notify. Either this is an oversight in the app or in the documentation.

Currently Tasker can only store images into DCIM/Tasker which has the problem that Google's Photos app will index them and upload them to Google Photos without the ability to exclude that directory. We should be able to select any target directory.
