[Q] Auto silent when connected to college's WIFI?

Hi, I've been tying to search for an app maybe you can help me.
I'm looking for an app that I can configure that when I connect to specific wifi (probably school or college or even piano teacher [ they all got wifi, it's so common in these days..]) so it will automatically makes my phone on silent or vibrate...
And when log out will return to normal.
It can save the imberesting ringing mobile at class and also can not be forgotten at home at room hidden behind couch or something at silent because I forgot to return it back from study and so I wont hear any calls..
You probably know what I'm talking about from life and maybe also wondering where is the guineas that will invent that app already..
So if you know any app that can do this, please tell me
Or if you are an app-Creator, here's an idea...
Thanks,
Yarden.

Try tasker

Yes, Tasker or AutomateIt should do what you want.
i will 3rd the vote for tasker. I use it and its a great app
+1 tasker
I have this exact profile for my classes
Llama https://market.android.com/details?id=com.kebab.Llama&feature=search_result does this sort of thing extremely well and has the significant virtue of being free. It's well-supported and quite functional, and (for me at least) much easier to set up than Tasker.

How to look for tasks created in tasker in conjure..??
I have also allowed external access in tasker but when i search for a task in Conjure cannot find any.!! Help..!!
Can you check the following:
1) What version of Tasker do you have installed? You should be able to determine this by searching for tasker in Conjure & clicking the gear icon to view the app settings screen. Conjure requires Tasker v 1.2.2+
2) Do you have "Allow external access" turned on in Tasker? You can find this setting in Tasker by going to menu -> preferences -> misc
3) Have you given your tasks names? You can tell if your tasks have names by opening Tasker and selecting the "Tasks" tab. The tasks listed there have names.
If everything it set up correctly, it should work. Typing "tasks" will show all Tasker tasks. Typing the exact task name will find the task. If it still doesn't work, let me know & we can debug further.

[Q] HTTP GET request via Llama w/o opening browser

Hello,
I'd like to figure out a way to use Llama to send an HTTP GET request to my home automation system. In particular I wish to turn the power to the charger on and off based on battery percent as this tablet will be mounted on a wall. Since Llama seems to require opening of the browser to do this, I'm assuming this would require another app. My question is, does one exist? I just want a shortcut that will execute a HTTP request in a completely invisible fasion. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Hello,
I have the same request. Do you find a solution?

Yes. I wrote my own little app that will create shortcuts. It's not in the Play store but I could try to send it to you if you'd like.
I find a solution with the app Tasker. This app could send an Http request but i have other issue. The better way will be to make my own app. If you could send me your version, it will be a great help for starting.
(Sorry for my English)

I just sent you an email with the apk attached. I just downloaded the Tasker trial and wasn't super impressed. Perhaps if it were free I would've made use of it but I enjoyed the opportunity to learn a little about Android development. What was your issues with Tasker?
Let me know if my app works for you.
Hello !
I'm also looking for a similar solution.
I use Llama and I need to update my Android GPS location through a HTTP POST.
I really don't want to use tasker... Do you have clues for me ? I'm able if needed to create an APK.
Thanks !

The little app I wrote is only designed to make a static HTTP request. In other words, it won't be able to read any Llama variables or anything like that. However, it probably wouldn't be too difficult to modify the app to support what you're looking to do. I could send you the source code privately if you promise to send me back your changes.
@mrceolla Could you send me the app and source code. I shall send back any changes I do.

[Q] Profile Scheduler+ Profile Help

Hi,
I am trying to configure a profile in Profile Scheduler+ to disable Wi-Fi whenever I am not near a HotSpot. Does anyone know how I can set this, i.e. specific instructions? I have a profile setup, but it seems I have to manually activate it, I can't get the logic of the rule quite right.
Any help/pointers/instructions would be greatly appreciated.
Also, If you can recommend a better app, if you think this one is lacking, that would be helpful too. I know about Tasker, but I find the interface quite daunting :S
Cheers
Darren

Tasker help

I've searched all over and cannot find a way to do this so i decided to post a question and see if anyone can help.
On the Tasker app i want to make my phone automatically reply to a received text message from a specific contact one time only. right now as it stands, my auto response will keep being sent to the contact until i manually disable the task. is there a way to have it only send once and disable on it's own??
also, does anyone know where i can find a list of all the variables and their functions?? or maybe a link that you guys found helpful when using this app. so far what i've been able to make it do is amazing but i know there is so much more that i need to learn. any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
