    Toggle wifi in airplane mode

    yoco9 · 5 · Last reply by Peter Quinto

    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.

    Plus ins need to be manually edited after tasker data restore on new device

    insaned · 0 · Posted

    Upon installation of a new device and the tasker restoration of data, tasker plug ins need to be re-edited manually (sometimes just click the edit button and exit is enough) to be able to work as it looks like otherwise it won't generate the variables. Even if each plug in app itself is opened beforehand, it stills need to be edited in tasker.

    Shake sensitivity sometimes becomes too high, rebooting fixes

    Moleculor · 0 · Posted

    I have a simple profile set to go off when the phone is shaked 'left-right'.

    Sensitivity is very low. Duration is very long. Though I don't know what either of those things means (does 'very low' mean it it takes a very strong shake, or a very small shake to hit the very low threshold? Does 'very long' mean I have to shake it for a very long time, or it tracks motion for a very long time and looks to see if I slowly shook the phone?), it still functions about as I expect: I need a strong, firm,

    trigger doesn´t fire no more

    hanss · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi,

    tasker runs on a Huawei P10.

    after some days of try and error, i got the settings so tasker fires the

    trigger for %BATT ervery one% of %BATT changes.

    I tried it over 24 hours in power-saving mode and it works reliable.

    Some days later, without changes anything in the settings, the %BATT trigger doesn´t

    fire after 2hours in power-saving mode and I find no solution to fix it.

    This seems to be very unreliable and it would be fine if you have a solution.

    Notification Leds not recognised in "Alert, Set Light" Action in Android 8.1

    Nick Maverick · 3 · Last reply by Nick Maverick

    I tried to create a task where when I started "Car Mode", I would also light permanently the notification led in Blue color, so when driving I can check quickly if car mode is on and turn it off when car mode is off. 

    In Android 6.0 the action "Alert, Set Light" shows the detected available notification leds and I can use the action successfully, but in Android 8.1 (my new smartphone) the action was disabled, so I updated to the last tasker version and tried again.  The option became available, but there was no notification leds detected, so I could

    sliders in Tasker actions difficult to control

    Malcolm · 0 · Posted

    Could the sliders (SeekBars) used by Tasker actions be improve or made customizable in settings? I find it impossible to use the press-and-drag method -- they just don't move, and the click method is very hit-and-miss.  Using the arrows is often impracticable when the value range is large since the arrows change the value by only +/-1.  Also in some cases a "logarithmic" (actually "exponential") scale would be more appropriate, e.g. for setting a Beep tone frequency where getting somthing in the middle of the audio spectrum on a linear scale that goes from ~0 to 16000 is extremely awkward.

    Wifi Near does not properly detect a Wi-Fi network with "/" character

    Dmitri Trofimov · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I noticed that the "/" character is used as a separator if one wants to specify multiple networks. Can it be done so that double-division sign is treated like a single division sign but as part of SSID?

    Disable alarm does not work on Samsung S9

    Arnaud Boussaer · 4 · Last reply by M Frisberg

    I want to disable my 'work' alarm when my calendar has an event 'holiday'.

    The task 'Cancel alarm' only opens the alarm app on my phone, but does not cancel it. Makes no difference which mode (disable current, by label, any). I have a Samsung Galaxy S9 with Android 8.0, alarm app v7.0.92.4.

    PS: The task 'Set alarm' actually does work.

    PS2: also plugin 'ClockTask' wont disable an alarm.

    Tasker Crashes

    anonymized · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Tasker occasionally crashes. Quite old problem and have not been fixed still. And when it does crash, it also triggers all or most of the tasks to action, apparently all at the same time. This is very old problem since Tasker 4 and have had this with Android 5, 6 and 7.

    Might be some bug if too much going on at the same time? Maybe should optimize my stuff and give different priorities to tasks (as I have never done that)? Or maybe need more powerful smartphone to run my stuff without crashing?

    I have observed that crash phenomenon

    Get voice action brings tasker to foreground.

    Rich D · 0 · Posted

    When a 'get voice ' action is run and Tasker has not been closed (by backing out) and is in the background,  the action will bring tasker to the foreground and show the get voice input promt. This will not happen if tasker has been closed by using the back button prior to the action running.

    Enable tasker from menu not working properly

    Adrian Barbu · 1 · Last reply by Adrian Barbu

    If tasker is disabled and I wanto to enable it I touch "Enable Tasker" from app menu. This doesn't enable the app. To actually enable it, after enabling tasker from the menu, I have to click on any profile and then to confirm the action through the tick that appears on top bar. At this point Tasker enables itself and everything works right
