I have been using Tasker the last couple of days and I am really started to like this app. I havent even scratched the surface of what this app is capable of but it would be nice to have a thread for all Tasker users to share the Profiles.
I currently have mine setup to shut off 3G when the screen is off and turn it back on when the screen is on. Its been working great. I got home today from work and was at 70% battery life after 10 hrs of light usage throughout the day.
So far I have
GPS Auto on and off when I open maps
Display off / data off
Display on / data on
Home area wifi auto enable
Battery full alert
NightSMSResponder
Missed call Auto reply
Call recorder
Screen off / Data off: do you still receive emails and mms?
Best app out!
I've been using this app for awhile as well... I've been able to fully automate the processes that I had to remember to do to conserve battery.
This is my setup.
1.At Girlfriend's house - GPS off, auto brightness on, notifications silenced and from 3am - 7am text messages are set to auto reply and calls sent to voicemail.
2.Headphones plugged - Load music app, adjust media volume, and turn screen off after 30 seconds.
3.Any power connected (USB or AC) - Key lock off
4.If USB plugged and file explore (Astro, ES) loaded, mount SD
5.Maps,Navigation loaded - GPS on, Auto Brightness on, System vol to max
Just some basic profiles.
I'm still in the trial period, do I have to purchase to be able to import the download-able profiles from the step through section of the site?

I was able to download profiles while in the trial period. The only problem I had was downloading profiles that had multiple downloads. What version are you using? I am using 1.0.8b2 but I see that b3 is available now.

No I do not. I can set it up so that data will toggle on and off every 5,10,15 minutes or whatever you want it set it.
I would like to figure out a way to have tasker enter my passcode that is required with my exchange lock since lockpicker does not work with Froyo

I was trying to set that up last night but it was telling me to install APNdroid for it to turn the data off. APNdroid states on their market page that it doesn't work with CDMA, so I have to ask, how did you manage to have Tasker turn data on and off ?

If you install the latest beta version it will toggle data without using APNdroid. I do not have it installed and it works fine.

Try copying what I have showing here just to see if data is toggling. I set the delay for data on so that I could actually see the data come on. I didnt believe it was working either until I put the delay in there.

Ya know I tried this earlier after seeing this post and it got a little annoying to figure out, I honestly have been using a program called overclock widget and it has increased my battery by at least double.... and I am running stock rooted with Sprint bloatware removed
I have it setup to turn data off when the screen is off and data on when the screen is on. How can you make it toggle data on and off when the screen is off so you can still get email and stuff?

Cell Standby Battery Drain:
Hey Guys!!
Maybe some of you know it. The cell standby drains a lot of battery. I live in a mounterial arrea and it's really annoying. So I searched a bit on Google and build a small Tasker "Script" to reduce the draining. I'm using it now for 6 weeks and it's working good! It reduced my cell standby from 35% to 2%.
So what's the magic?
First tasker will turn Airplane Mode (only cell!) on if you don't have signal. Then it'll wait for 5 minutes and check it again. Yes this sounds really simple but it was hard to build it.
I hope I can help you with sharing my experiences!
Screen off=data/wifi off it no traffic (with Night Mode):
Hey Guys, I have been looking for a solution for this problem for quite a while myself. Now I found a good solution to collect the current traffic on all interfaces. I will share a detailed explanation on how to set it up.
First off, what will happen?
If you want tasker to turn Wifi or Mobile Data off when you the turn Screen off normally you have the problem that it will interrupt all downloads. This Profile will try to read the traffic. If the traffic is below 15 kb it will turn wifi or mobile data off. If not it’ll wait until it is below 15kb. Later If you turn your screen on again tasker will activate mobile data and wifi. It'll wifi doesn't connect to a network (in the next 30 seconds) it will turn wifi off.
How does Tasker work? How can I optimize these profiles/tasks for my needs?
First what does tasker do? This is for the people who don't understand tasker. Tasker has 4 tabs (Profiles, Tasks, Scenes and Vars) but I won't talk about Scenes cz I didn't uses it yet. I also won't talk about Vars (variables) cz they are self explaining.
What are Profiles?
Basically profiles contain conditions (for example if display on/off or wifi on/off) and run a task if the condition is true. Example: If display off turn wifi off.
What are Tasks?
A task is something like a list of actions which the phone should do. (for example turn data on/off or run a specific app)
How do the profiles from this thread?
The profile AutoSync (Screen off) runs every 10 minutes while the screen is off. It turns data/wifi on checks for new messages and turns it off. It has a variable called "%SLEEP". It will only run if "%SLEEP" doesn't match "1".
The profiles Display (Data) and Display (Wifi) turns data/wifi on when the user turns the screen on. When the screen is off again it will check traffic for 30 seconds. If the traffic is below 15kb/s it will turn data/wifi off. If not it will wait 2 minutes and check the traffic again for 30 seconds until the traffic is below 15kb/s.
The profile Night (week), Night (weekend) turn the phone into airplane mode and sets the variable "%SLEEP" to "1".
The profile Wifi connected just changes the variable "%CONNECTION to "1" or removes the "1". This is needed for the Display (Wifi) profile.
On my todolist:
You say..
Changelog v1.3:
Added Greenify's hibernate now to both screen off tasks
Changelog v1.2:
Added AutoSync (every 10 minutes if screen is off)
I'm using this profiles on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus and it works very well!!
Feel free to ask me if you have problems! I'll try my best to help you.
These profiles include the greenify hibernate action from its plugin. If you have troubles with it you have to remove and readd it (on both Screen off tasks) cz my plugin is german. (plugin → hibernate)
You need Secure Settings for tasker or it won't work!! I used Secure Settings because Secure Settings can off only the cell radio. Tasker supports it, too. But not for Jelly Bean and I'm using 4.2.2 :/
How to import *.prj.xml files:
Unzip the *.prj.xml file in your Tasker/projects directory and then import it in Tasker by long-clicking the home icon or any of the other tabs. If you don't have the home tab, swipe down from the top in Tasker to show the tabs. (beginner mode must be disabled!)
Thanks for this 8D!
Useful for a beginner like me ^^!
In task screen off, why do you wait for 30 sec's in Action number 5? Also how important is the Stop Task Action? What happens if I don't include it? I mean anyways, the following 'else' won't be executed if the Mobile data turned off by the 'if'.
Just what I looked for, but How can I install your *.zip file to tasker? I just cant install it, any hint? where should I put the zip file?

You have to wait 30 seconds or how long you want to wait cz in action number 2 tasker gets a traffic number from the system. After 30 seconds it gets another. Tasker subtracts the values to get the actual traffic in bytes. So Tasker can look if the traffic is below 15 kb/s. Yes you're right. It's my fault. You don't need the Stop Task Action. It's from the old Script. I forgot to remove it. Thanks for your hint!
Hi parthipanramesh,

What are the modifications/fixes in this version? I can't tell from looking at it here.

Hi RLicher,
Some people had the issue with the maths calculation of CHECKB_WIFI - CHECKA_WIFI. So tasker will set the variables to 0 if they aren't set. (cz wifi is off or something else). And I deleted/merged some Actions.
You can use the version from the other thread if you don't have problems
I'm using this on SGS3 but notice two issue... While listening to Pandora when a song ends the data or wifi will get disabled so the next song cant start. Second wifi or data will not be reenable when the screen is enabled.
For the record i just imported the files within the zip.

First you have to increase the 30 seconds from the two Screen off tasks [A5] because Tasker checks the traffic for 30 seconds. If Pandora loads a song for example in 40 seconds Tasker will disable data and wifi after it has been loaded. So data and wifi are turned off when Pandora tries to play the next song. Increase the value and you should be good.
And for your next issue:
Delete the imported profile and create a new profile:
Name: Whatever
Context: State → Display On
Task: Create a task which enables data and wifi
Exit Task: Screen off

Sorry I didn't read your previous post.
Unzip the *.tsk.xml files to sdcard/Tasker/tasks and the *.prf.xml to sdcard/Tasker/profiles. Then open tasker tap on tasks and hold it until a menu appears. Tap on import and you should see the files. Do this for the profile aswell.
First tasks and then profiles!! Or you'll get an error that tasker couldn't find the the task for the profile.
Thanks just pinched your files and made it turn on when the screen comes on.
My current profiles means that Wifi turns off when i leave the office and stays off until I turn it on again.
If im somewhere with no wifi will my wifi be turned on when my screen is turned on?
Would i need to create another profile which says if wifi is on and not connected to a network after X minutes
then please disable?
If so is that an easy one to create?
Thanks

First yes it will enable wifi.
I solved it with 2 profiles. One changes a variable if wifi is connected or not and the other one is turns wifi on, waits 30 seconds, checks the variable. If my phone is not connected to a wifi it will turn it off.
Do you want my profiles?

It have nothing to do with my profiles and tasks. They only enable connections, check traffic and disable the conncections. Maybe another profile isn't working correctly.
And next time you can edit your post. You don't need to make 3 posts.
Thanks again parthipanramesh, will import these tonight and try

I am new to tasker and i have been fiddling with it.
How would I add auto sync turns on every 15 minutes when screen is off and auto sync turns on when screen is on to this "script"?
I've recently discovered Tasker** and i really loved it so i though that i'd better creat a thread so other people could do the same and by the same way this is an S4 Special Edition so we can share our profiles to optimise our phones.

2. New task : Name it 3G-Off -> + -> Mobile Data -> Set to Off

Tasker -> IF% ~ 1 PSAFE
Net -> Car Rental
Set: Off

I mean something like the touchwiz blocking mode for notification or like iOS. When there is a new notification/call/SMS no sound is played and the screen stays off.
The problem with the touchwiz toggle is that it only works with call and SMS so I'd like to replicate a complete behavior with tasker

regarding the wifi-auto-on feature using cell near, its not that accurate, actually its the least accurate location profile context but also the least battery draining. so let me share what i've done with that.
Profile -wifi home:
screen on
+
cell near(walked around my house)
+
wifi near(selected my ssid)(make sure you have wifi toggle selected)
the point of this is that it wont scan for wifi while screen off and it will first try to match all the context in an order. so first the screen has to be on, then the cell towers must be near and lastly the wifi AP must be close, for the wifi to turn on. This eliminates the possible battery drain if you try using only wifi near and poor accuracy by the only cell near context. in my town, there is a shopping center quite near and when i walk past it, my goddamn cell near context was switching wifi AP's all the time, which made me loose my nerves. so i added the wifi-near context and voila!. the wifi turns on when im a few meters from my house.
Galaxy S4 has an Accessibility Setting bug which makes it turn on Talkback and you cant turn it off. It also trigger many other bugs.
I knew about Tasker but it doesn't work right on S4. In fact any app that requires Accessibility enabled doesn't work.

Don't know about that accessibility bug you're talking about, but I'm a longtime Tasker user and I can tell you that it works flawlessly on my S4.

Am I wrong or if you use wifi near you must create a task for every ssid that you need?
Instead by using cell near it is possible to set more cells with the same task.

Instead by using cell near it is possible to set more cells with the same task.

what? . you just select the wifi ssid in the context. there are three contexts, one entering(wifi on) and one exiting task(wifi off). thats it.

Hi all.
Does anyone know if it is possible that when the phone is on silent and gets a missed call / text message an email can be sent to a specific address?
Thanks for your help.

You can't do that on silent mode only but maybe you can set a timer : so you can put silent hours and creat a task that contain : 1. Slient mode on and 2. Send to .. - there's also another methode and it doesn't require any timer.

You will have to creat a new context so you can choose your home ssid it means that you will have 2 profiles : one for the specific ssid and the other for the location-connect

Hey guys hope someone can provide some insight.
Since upgrading to 4.4.3 via ota, flashing supersu and re-enabling xposed, my screen does not automatically timeout. It will stay on until I touch the power button to put it on standby.
I assumed it was an app so I've uninstalled anything new and still no change.
I have no clue what is preventing my device from sleeping. Any help would be appreciated.

Can you provide more details? What's your Display settings and what modules do you you have loaded?

My display settings are currently on 30 but I've tried 1 minute and 2 minutes as well with no change. The only modules I have loaded are Gravity Box.

Few things to try out.
1. Set display to time out after 1 min. Then reboot your phone. See if problem reoccurs.
2. Settings -> Developer Options -> Stay awake (make sure this is not checked)
3. Check if you have apps installed that has permission to keep the screen on, even if it is not the active app on screen.
4. Settings -> Applications -> Running (kill any unnecessary running apps) (might help if you do the same for cached processes)
Hi fellow XDA members, I just came across this awesome app called Tasker. I am still trying to figure it out and learning about it but i know it got huge potential to automate our devices. Many of you must be experts in using it. So I created this thread for all to share their best and favourite Tasker profiles for OnePlus 2. Looking forward to see some wonderful ideas to automate our beloved OnePlus 2.
tasker is not device or rom specific at all, hence i don't think that people ( experienced users ) who us tasker in a sophisticated manner would read and post much in this thread, there are dedicated tasker thread. just stumbled in to see what tasker profiles (tasks) would be especially for the OP2 and as suspected, there are none yet.
I've been looking for a way to use the fingerprint sensor, to secure certain apps, such that only I can access them with my fingerprint. I haven't succeeded yet, so if anyone has an Idea I would appreciate it.

That's a great idea. Experts, please shed some light on this if it's possible or not.
I don't own a OPO, but I imagine the profiles I run would work on any android. I've only got a few at the moment, some I ditched because I no longer had a use for them since getting on PAC ROM.
Current profiles are:
ClearCache. Autolaunches the Fast Cache Cleaner app everyday at 6:00PM. The app has no UI, so it doesn't interfere with what I'm doing at the time and just quietly clears cache in the background.
LowerMediaVolume: When headphones are plugged in, media volume gets reset to 2. Got sick of scaring the pants off myself when I'd go to listen to music and had forgotten my media volume was maxed out...
TurnGPSOnWhenWazeIsLaunched: I use Waze as my navigator, so I have it set to automatically turn GPS on (through the Secure Settings plugin) when the app is launched. Also included an exit task so once I leave navigation, GPS will shut off as well.
BirthControlTxt and CleaningReminder: They're similar profiles for my bad memory. Everyday at 11:45PM, my phone sends me an SMS reminding me to take my pill (I also have an alarm for this set at 11, this alert is a fallback just in case my alarm goofs). CleaningReminder is set to go off every Monday, but I only clean the factory every other Tuesday. So I set the cool down period to every 13 days, and hopefully that will 'disable' the alert every other Monday. I just made that one so I haven't gotten to test that. In the past, I also had an AutoReboot profile to reboot the phone everyday at 7AM, but I haven't gotten ballsy enough to try it since switching to a somewhat unstable ROM

Certainly.
Profile: Application/Waze
Task: Plugin/Secure Settings/System + Actions/GPS/Set ON
Exit task (to create exit tasker: once you have built the above Task, go into your profiles, expand your Waze profile, and long press on your task, then select to add an exit task): Plugin/Secure Settings/System + Actions/GPS/Set OFF.
Results may vary from device to device. This profile worked great when I had a Jellybean stock ROM, now I'm running PAC on 5.1 and while it does work, it occasionally will put my GPS on 'device only' instead of high accuracy, so for reliablity I just toggle GPS myself in my notification bar until I think or hear of a way to do this more reliably in Tasker.
I did it that way but wasn't working...
Cleaned flashed oxygen now works
Thanks

Need some help...
Trying to use Tasker to create an action to the 4636 Hidden Menu, so then can export it to an app for quick access.
Was originally trying to do it the phone but didn't work...
Right now I'm trying:
System > Send Intent
Action: android.intent.action.MAIN
Package: com.android.settings
Class: com.android.settings.TestingSettings
Still nothing though
Thanks

Tasker for dark mode?
I'm wondering if Tasker can be used to turn on dark mode on the Oneplus 2 at a specific time of the day. What task option do I use?

I did the same with Google Maps..
PROFILE:
App > GMaps (os Waze)
ENTRY TASK (GPSMax):
Plugin > Secure Settings >System+ Actions > Location Mode > High Accuracy
[Flash "High Accuracy GPS enabled"]
EXIT TASK (GPSMin):
Plugin > Secure Settings > System+ Actions > Location Mode > Battery Saving
I always have battery seving location ON, so I just need to turn on High Accuracy while I'm using GMaps.
You have to install Secure Settings plugin and enable its XPosed Module

Did you try putting a 1 second Wait at the beginning? Maybe the phone just needs some time..
And use a Flash in order to see if the profile is fired
How do I do that? Can you please give the exact options to set?

Before your A1 do:
Alert > Flash > "GPS fired" (and check the long option)
Activity > Wait > 1s
I can't find activity...
Anyway, the profile is activated but my gps doesn't change to high accuracy....
