    "Bluetooth Connection" Disconnect not working on Xiaomi Mi Mix 3

    dantist · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm pretty sure it was working some time ago, but no matter if I use the device name or MAC, it keeps connected. I tried unpairing it as well just to see what happens and it throws the error "Unknown error removing bond".

    Is there any chance disconnecting devices will work again on Xiaomi devices?

    Tasker crashes if Get voice doesnt recognize speech

    Ray Gllisse · 2 · Last reply by Ray Gllisse

    If there's no answer when a get voice action is launched, Tasker crashes instead of continuing to next action.

    That's important to me, as I'd like to use voice control to acknowledge being alive and safe in mountain, and if not, I might not be able to answer, the lack of answer repeatedly 3 times would be the signal to send sms to rescue team.

    It can work only if get voice action doesnt make Tasker crash in case of lack of answer

    Thanks for your help

    JS writeFile append parameter ignored

    Friedrich Hehl · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    The "append" parameter for the JS function "writeFile()" described in the wiki here seems to be ignored and is always set to false.

    To reproduce this issue:

    1. Create a task with the Javascriptlet
    2. Run the task and look for "log.txt". Check that "some random text" appears on line 1.
    3. Go back to the task and change "some random text" into "text to append".
    4. Run the task again.
    5. Check log.txt and see that "some random text" has disappeared and only "text to append" is visible.

    Can anyone reproduce?

    I am running Tasker 5.7.2 on Android 8.0.0.

    Get Voice can fail so it needs a continue task after error option.

    Steve Waring · 3 · Last reply by Steve Waring

    I'll add a screen shot when I am on my PC as you have to drag and drop them on this website, so I can't do it from my phone.

    This might just be a bug in Tasker that needs fixing. But if it's not possible to stop get voice from failing, then a continue task after error is needed so that the situation can be managed, eg try again.

    Alarm Changed is not triggering when last alarm is off

    Even when there's suddenly no more next alarm because the last alarm already occurred or the next alarms are turned off the Alarm Changed event should trigger. All variables like na_time should be not set in the event to indicate there's no next alarm.

    Remove multiple Google account restrictions in Autoweb

    Ravi Warrier · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Sometimes you need to have more than one Google account on your phone. 

    But having multiple accounts disables purchases/registration in some autoapps, especially autoweb.

    It would be nice to have this restriction removed as no amount of clearing cache and reinstalling autoweb+autoapps fixes the problem.

    Date Time Conversion Bug 12p-1p

    Tim Curran · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I've discovered a bug in Date Time Conversion. 

    Any conversion from a Time string to Seconds where Time string is between 12:00 PM and 1:00 PM results in an output that is actually in the midnight hour the next day.

    I've written conversion routines like this before in javascript and other languages, so I know from experience that an exception subroutine is required for 12-1pm; you can't just add 12 to get 24hr clock time (which works correctly starting at 1:00 PM). If you try, you wind up with exactly this problem.

    Tasker is sometimes disabled until I log in to Google Play

    Henry · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    What I did

    I paid for Tasker and signed out of Google Play. I have most app permissions turned off. I use a Google Pixel with LineageOS 16, an Android 9 variant.

    What I expected

    I thought that I could use Tasker while signed out of my Google account.

    What actually happens

    Every few days I get a notification: 'Trial period ended. Sorry, you can't use Tasker until you purchase it from the Google Play Store.'

    If I open Tasker, the Play Store quickly opens instead.

    When I log in, the notification vanishes and I can use Tasker again.
