    Location-based profile don't get active immedaitly after "Get Location v2" run

    JasMan · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hey, Not sure if this is an issue or just how Tasker works.

    I'm have a profile which triggers a location update by using "Get Location v2" when I left my car. My thougt was, that this will activated my location-based profiles when I'm in the covered area without waiting for the next "Display Off" monitoring cylus of Tasker.

    The "Get Location v2" run successfully, and the GPS coordinates are correct. But it takes another monitoring cyclus until the location-based profile gets active.

    I added the display "Turn On" action to the location update task in hope, that this will

    Display timeout issue on oneplus's oxygenos 12

    Nadav Rosenberg · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi, 

    Last week my phone (oneplus 8t) was updated to oxygenos 12 (based on Android 12) and two of my most used profiles stopped working. 

    The first issue was with media volume control but I found a solution here and now I am using accesability volume and it solved the problem.

    The second issue is with display timeout. I have a quick toggle that toggles between a 10 minutes TO and a 1 minute TO. After the update, the toggle stopped working. I did some testing and find out that Tasker can control the display timeout only if it is

    Can't control volume when Tasker is not foreground in Android 12

    Jay Keeley · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I have a tasker script that stores the current media volume into a variable and drops the media volume to 0 when I launch specific apps, and when I exit those apps restores the media volume to its previous value.

    On Android 11 this ran no problem, but my Oneplus 8 was updated to Android 12 this week and now this script no longer works. If I have tasker open and run the script, it runs no problem, but when I launch the other apps the volume change doesn't work. The script still runs and I still get pop-ups, but

    Motion detection of Android slow / not working

    u b · 4 · Last reply by u b

    As long as Takser is active, the motion detection for Android and other apps does not react or is needs very broad and fast motions to be registert.

    For example the phone should turn on the screen if it is picked up. As long as Tasker is disabled that works fine. When Tasker is activ I have to wave the phone around quit abrutly for it to register the motion.Also the "Wake me up" alarm muting does not work when Tasker ist active.

    Google Calendar Entry - State in Profile

    Chris · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    I created a profile that detects if a calendar event is active using the State>App>Calendar Entry function.  It has worked for a number of years.  This past week it stopped working.  It is not detecting when the event is active.  I tried adding a new calendar to the Google Calendar and accessing it through Tasker and it does not display.  I have also tried toggling the calendar permissions in Tasker and that has not helped.  It seems Tasker is not accessing the Google Calendar at all.

    Parse/Format DateTime linked to wrong documentation

    Anthony · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Parse/Format DateTime help is linked to https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html for documentation on the formatting codes to use. However, using e.g., u gets an IllegalArgumentException. From the exception it appears Tasker is using Joda, so the doc link should be https://www.joda.org/joda-time/apidocs/org/joda/time/format/DateTimeFormat.html instead.

    Clipboard monitoring makes keyboard to glitch

    Hi. As always, huge thanks for continuing developing Tasker. Want to report bug. Latest 5.15.3-beta, Android 11 (LineageOS 18.1).

    Steps to reproduce: 0. Important: bug "activates" only after some time after Tasker was launched, like few hours 1. Create single task with any single action which use %CLIP variable, e.g. make Tasker to monitor it (via workaround, yeah) 2. While typing anywhere mark text and press Copy / Cut, e.g. change clipboard 2.1 Even enough modify clipboard via shell: service call clipboard 2 s16 "text" 3. For a second *any* keyboard hides and appears again (shown on attached video) 4.

    Get Location v2 suspends all other tasks

    JasMan · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hey,

    I noticed an issue with the "Get Location v2" action. It seems that the action suspends all other actions/tasks when the location update is running.

    When I stop my car and the bluetooth connection to my mobile phone gets inactive, the variable %BluetoothConnection is set to "None", which triggers two pofiles to do an location update (Location Update@Out of Car) and check the audio profile settings (Check Audio Profile@Bluetooth).

    According to the Tasker log (see below) both profiles are triggered and also both tasks (Force Location Update & Set Audio Profile) are started. But when the Get Location action

    I have set up a szene for my music controls some time ago and it worked absolutely fine and displayed the track image, but after the last update it does no longer display the image given from a variable. The called variable is set by the "Music track changed" event's child variable %mt_art and contains a path to the image.
