Set certain apps to startup on boot? - T-Mobile LG G2x

I want groove ip and twitter to start on boot because sometimes i forget and groove ip is my source for voice calls.
Is there an app that will allow me to do this? I looked in the market but could only find apps that could disable apps from auto starting

Tasker can do what you are asking just set up a profile to run on device boot.

I got tasker but i have no idea how to set up the profile lol

No problem, to set it up open up tasker:
On main window click New 'bottom center' enter a name for the profile somwthing like' auto start'
Now from the First Context menu select 'Event'
From the Select Event Category select 'System'
Now select 'Device Boot'
Ok, now you should be at the Task Selection Dialog click 'New Task' and give it a name eg 'Apps startup' but any name will do.
From here the Task Edit window click the Plus sign at the bottom right
Click 'App'
Then 'Load App'
Give it a second for the apps to spawn and choose the app you want to auto start.
Once selected click done on the new window
Repeat the last 2 steps for all the apps you want to auto load.
Once you have selected all the apps you wanted to load on start up. Click 'Done' on all windows till you are back to the main tasker window. Hit 'Apply' and you should be all set up.

Should the icon on the top right of the main menu be a check or ban sign?

A check mark means active the red ban sign means inactive. So make sure it's the check mark.

While in the browser, click on settings (the far left button with the 4 squares on top) and choose windows. It will show you how many browser windows are open and you can close them.
If you only have one window open then you just press the home button to exit.

The system will close it automatically when it is idle for a certain amount of time. This is what 2.1 has. It does not have the close button.

If you want to shut it down completely, you can install an app called "Advanced Task killer" which you can find on the market, once you install that app, you can select which apps you would like to close
hope that helped

I use an app called "Quick Exit", it puts an exit button in your Notifications and lets you close the apps that are active. It's available from the AM.
click the home button the kill app with ATK.. the easy and quick way

Tasker! Grr!

Hi all
I've just purchased Tasker after reading Paul's recommendations on modaco.
The first task I'm trying to set up is a GPS one listed on the Tasker wiki but it just won't activate. I choose the apps, GPS on, exit task GPS off. But when I press apply it says active in status bar but when I scroll down it says no active profiles
Also the button is definetly ON!
Thanks in advance guys

So when your app launches, you have it enabling GPS and then disabling it again when the app exits, is that correct?
Yeah I fixed it, needed to add variables the site I read off didnt tell me that lol

Mod

is theres any mode out there for the N5 that allows you to set a default app (gallery, browser etc) without it having to ask you EVERY single time? i know this is because of a patent that Crapple holds, but i remeber there being a mod for my previous phones that allowed you t o set a preset app for an action and keeping that way without asking every single time. Also is there a mod to or way to turn off the swipe up fron home button for google search? i already have google now off, but every now and then when im scrolling through pages i accidentally swipe up near the home button which then takes me to googlr search

Not sure about the second part.... but for setting a default app... i thought it was pretty obvious. Touch what you want to open... asks which app you want to use.... touch the app you want to assign to that type of file or that specific action.... and then touch "Always" at the bottom of that little window.

Tasker - Run task when a full screen app is opened, run another when it's closed

So I have just started using the excellent NotifierPro, which is nice, but I don't want it running all the time. I only really want it when I'm in a full screen app (e.g. a game) and the status bar is hidden. Enter, Tasker. I have managed to create tasks to enable and disable the NotifierPro service quite easily (the developer helpfully provides intents for doing this), but I'm having trouble figuring out how to trigger them. I basically want to trigger the "enable" task whenever I enter any app that hides the status bar, and trigger the "disable" task when I exit that app (i.e. switch to another app that does not hide the status bar).
Any Tasker gurus able to point me in the right direction for appropriate contexts to use to trigger these tasks at the desired times? Thanks in advance.
I would also really like to know if this is even doable.

[Q] Hotspot app missing

Is it just me or is the hotspot app icon missing from the apps tray? I did a factory reset and it still not there. I can start it from the settings menu but i would like a shortcut on the start screen at least. Any ideas?

I am rooted. My search for notification icon or shortcut for hotspot in xda has come up short. If anyone has a link to a fix, that would be appreciated.

1. Open up SQLite Editor - Select the Apps tab on top and scroll down until you see Settings Storage and click it.
2. Click on settings.db
3. Click on system
4. Click on the search icon on top right
5. Type in the word notification in the Filter Value field and click ok
6. Once the results load up, tap on notification_panel_active_app_list (should be 3rd from the bottom result) and click on the pencil icon on top to edit
7. In the Value field, you'll see all your toggles listed. All you have to do is add the word WiFiHotspot right after “Wifi”<-- just like that with a semi colon right after. Make sure there's no space after the semi colon. Once you add WiFiHotspot, click the save button.
8. Close SQLite editor and reboot your phone and verify
