    Notification Blocking backup cannot be restored

    StaffanT · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I just found that a backup created of the list of blocked notifications in AutoNotification cannot be restored. The backup works fine and creates a BlockFilterForDB database (SQLite), which contains all the definitions and looks correct. But restoring only lets me choose the backup file and when accepted nothing more happens. I'm running Android 11 One UI 3.0 with Tasker 5.11.14 and AN v4.2.0 beta.

    Thanks for looking in to this.

    Installed tasker for the first time, crashed on startup. Uninstalled. Now gmail crashes on startup

    Jim Spath · 2 · Last reply by Jim Spath

    I purchased and downloaded Tasker today onto my Verizon Galaxy S8.

    After it installed, I tried running it, and it crashed.  I tried starting it a few more times, and it crashed every time.  So I uninstalled the app and got a refund.

    Now my Gmail keeps crashing.  I'm guessing Tasker installed some sort of hook to be able to use Gmail, but it wasn't (un)installed properly, so now Gmail itself is broken.

    Is there any way to cleanup whatever it is Tasker has done to Gmail?

    Oh, and I also get notifications that Email has crashed, which I don't

    AutoNotification not working on Samsung A51 with the new One UI 3.0

    StaffanT · 3 · Last reply by StaffanT

    Hi Joao, as I reported here (https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/m54otc/autonotification_toast_intercept_has_stopped/) I can no longer intercept toast and notifications since I installed the latest update by Samsung on my Android 11 device. I don't know which version of AN I was using after (re?)installing 4.3.0beta but now nothing works, no log entries, nothing, nothing. The only thing is that I get an AN notification saying "Intercepting Toasts" but that's it. What is interesting though is that after installing v4.1.4 (after I dropped out of beta testing), the AN log now contains some entries like this:

    • New intercepted Notification:
    • Title: Checking Tasker Condition 
    • Text: Running...;

    Couldn't toggle airplane mode with ADB Wifi (Android 6.0, no root)

    Hey!

    I want to enable Airplane Mode on my phone using Tasker action.

    There is a simple action named AirplaneON:

    Airplane Mode [Set: On]

    I have already configured Tasker and ADB according to the guides:

    • ADB Setup
    • ADB Wifi Permission
    • Write Secure Settings Permission

    ADB Wifi actions are working after that, like test. 

    But when I try to launch my  EnableAirplaneMode action, i have the following error:

    Is it possible to fix this problem without root?

    tasker on the pixel 5 will NOT run any profiles

    Ever since I upgraded to the Pixel 5 I can't get Tasker to do anything at all. I used to have a profile that would run when connected to my car's BT. That no longer works. I tried changing the profile to trigger when I started my podcasts app (Pocket Casts) and that didn't work either.

    In addition, I keep getting the message to install ADB on my phone. Well, I've tried that several times using the instructions provided but, apparently, it hasn't worked.

    Help! Please.

    Tasker has no access to files created by AutoNotification

    Xavier Althoff · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hello!

    I've found this problem a handful of times on reddit etc., but I can't seem to find any fix (except maybe rooting my device, which I would like to avoid at this point).

    I used to get a .png from a notification using AutoNotification and I could send that image via a POST Request in Tasker to a nodejs server. However, when using the path 0/Android/data/com.joaomgcd.autonotification/etc... in the request, I get a permission denied error.

    I am aware it has something to do with the way Android 11 handles scoped storage, however, wouldn't it be possible for AutoNotification to

    export task with java code

    Good afternoon,

    I have a task that uses java code to get the call log, I then filter to get rejected calls or just last 5 calls or whatever, everything works fine in tasker, but when I export the task to an app it does not work, I inserted a vibration at the begining and at the end, so I know that the task is starting, but after the first vibration it does nothing more, no java code and no last vibration.

    So, is java code accepted in exported tasks? ... if yes, then what do I have to do

    Wifi not turning on in morning

    Matt · 1 · Last reply by Matt

    I'm having an issue where my profile which turns on Wifi at 7 AM will activate but does not actually turn on the wifi. It used to work but no longer does so I'm not sure if it's something to do with OneUI 3.0 or an update to tasker but neither the profile or task has changed. Have no issues with turning off wifi or turning on/off bluetooth or gps.

    available audio stream global variables don't include the accessibility stream (STREAM_ACCESSIBILITY) https://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/AudioManager

    Jason Custer · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I use the TalkBack screen reader. I'd like to adjust the accessibility stream. The volume buttons control only the "active" stream, so not always relyable. I have tasks to adjust other streams, they work very well, but adding a global variable for this stream would help a lot. Documentation for STREAM_ACCESSIBILITY: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/AudioManager

    oauth2: HTTP Auth method oauth2 does not replace the last refresh_token with the new refresh_token

    Bryan B · 4 · Last reply by Bryan B

    When the HTTP Auth action using oauth2 uses a previously stored refresh_token to refresh both the access and refresh tokens, the auth server returns new access and refresh tokens, but tasker is not replacing the old refresh_token with the new refresh_token. Tasker continues to use the older refresh_token, which technically has not expired, but the server side deletes the older refresh_token since the server knows it just issued a new refresh_token.

    When tasker subsequently tries to refresh the access token, it uses the older, no longer valid, refresh token and, of course, authentication fails.

    The oauth2 spec is long and

    GDList return wrong times in gd_time

    Domenico Romano · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I think that Tasker wrongly subtracts the local timezone from the time returned from Google Drive API (that it's already GMT/UTC). So if I have a GMT+3 timezone, the time returned in gd_time is 3 hours less than it should be.

    Variable Add/Subtract doesn't behave as documented

    StaffanT · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Without using AutoTools Regex I find no easy way to test if a variable is all numeric or not. So I tried Variable Add with an increment value of zero but instead of being ignored as the documentation says, it ends with an error and terminates the task. May I suggest that the two actions be allowed to continue in case of an error, and the documentation be changed accordingly.

    HTTP Request Action throws missing access storage permission notification even if no file output is configured in the action

    Alexander Graetz · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I recently startet replacing JavaScriptLets in my kidapp with HTTP Request actions and now my kid app complains about missing access storage permission whenever this action runs.

    I don't use the action to access storage so it doesn't need this permission. Please fix this as I can't use the action as long as it asks for unnecessary permissions. It should only ask for this, if a file output is set.

    Thanks
