    Phone Ringing Caller Name Failure

    John C McAuley · 0 · Posted

    Phone ringing event only triggers on Blank, Any, or My Contact*. (The * is required).  Caller Name In (%CNAME) only returns GMail, never a name.)

    The Phone Ringing event does trigger on phone numbers 555123456*  (Yup the * is required) and %CNAME will be GMail.

    Phone Ringing Event triggering on Contacts Labels would be great!

    Pixel 3 running Android 11 June 2021 update, Tasker 5.12.22.

    Thanks,

    John

    ADB + Airplane Mode

    Gamsin · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    To enable permission for toggle Airplane Mode only requires an ADB appops command be run only once. I have verified this using appops, that after device reboot, Tasker retains permission to toggle Airplane Mode without re-enabling ADB wifi.

    Yet trying to toggle Airplane Mode in Tasker will fail due to ADB Wifi not being on. Tasker does not attempt to toggle Airplane Mode, even though it already has permission.

    If Tasker can retain permissions, then enabling ADB Wifi after reboot appears unnecessary.

    Thank you

    Hi,dear developer:

    An issue was observed that the display of a "TextEdit" created by action "Element Create" cannot be updated when the related global Var, Which is the content of "Text" of "TextEdit", is updated.

    In my test, this issue does not exit if the "TextEdit" is created mannaully in the scene edit interface.

    This issue was firstly appeared after I updated to 5.12. But it is still there when I go back to 5.11.

    QuickTask quick settings tile event trigger no longer works after v5.12

    Raphael · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I am using "QuickTask" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.balda.quicktask) for simple quick settings tiles, and this has worked well for me for a long time. Since Tasker v5.12, clicking the quick settings tile no longer triggers an event in Tasker. I have tried reinstalling both Tasker and QuickTask and resetting Android quick settings via adb, but it still didn't work. It's only the event-triggering part of the quick settings tile which was not working; I was able to change the image and label of the quick settings tile using Tasker actions. I can also configure whether clicking the quick settings tile required an unlock,

    Get Location v2 doesn't return %gl_time_seconds in Android6

    WANG · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I used the "Get Location v2" function to get time from the return value %gl_time_seconds.

    It works very well in Android 10, but the same task doesn't work in Android 6, %gl_time_seconds keeps unset while %gl_latitude %gl_longitude can work correctly.

    app info action

    paul · 1 · Last reply by paul

    Takser v 5.11.14

    OnePlus 7T A10

    in attempting to get a list of current and recent apps using App Info action 'last(0:3)', tasker's package name will populate the return array if a scene has been shown. Is there a way to differentiate between scenes and the app itself? I would like for tasker app to show in array, just not for scenes.

    Assistance Request event changes the current selected app

    lucatrv · 1 · Last reply by lucatrv

    As reported in the subject, if I associate a task to the Android "assist app" feature, when I run it the current selected app is changed (I guess the focus is given to Tasker itself, but I am not sure hot to verify it). To avoid this, I am currently using the "Home Button Launcher" app to run the task, instead of Tasker itself: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dynamicg.homebuttonlauncher

    Samuel Mateus · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Boas João,

    I've a very simple profile to turn OFF WIFI when I leave a certain location.

    Recently the action to turn OFF WiFi started to bug.

    Sometimes it runs as it should, sometimes runs but doesn't turn off WiFi (ExitERR on the LOG)

    I've the last version of Tasker (beta) + new tasker setting and both aren't battery optimized.

    Samsung S20 running on Android 11 with One UI 3.0

    I've posted on Reddit and there's at least 3 more persons that experience this bug. Link

    P.S: Just noticed that you released a new version of tasker settings 2 days ago

    Dark mode switches off aod

    Hannes Klostermann · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    On the pixel 4a, if I choose to activate dark mode when the screen goes off (to get a black notification background on the AOD) it for some reason deactivates the AOD entirely. I tried triggering the task by event display off and by display state off. The only action in the task is dark mode: on. Whenever the screen goes off the AOD shows for a brief moment and then disappears. Any idea why this happens?

    variable AND following with a list of variables with OR

    anonymized · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Experienced Tasker user here. When there is Task Action If/Then that using both AND, and OR (such as, when there is Global Variable and there is AND that following with a list of Global Variables with OR, then it seems there is one bug in Tasker. Apparently, it didn't recognize the first variable when following with AND and then list of OR values. It does appear to be bug of Tasker as I am writing here, so will show example below in case if I am overlooking something so you can see for yourself.
