Tasker problems? - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

So I just tried to export a Tasker project as an app. In order to do so, I have to select an icon. Problem is, when I try to do that, Tasker hangs. It works fine on my old phone (LG G4) so it's something with the Honor, but not sure if it's the phone itself or some settings somewhere. Anyone else having this problem?

Have you found a solution?
Did you notice that tasker is killed once in a while although it is marked as protected app in the battery manager.
How can that be avoided?

Does this app exist

I'm looking for something that can/will disable the use of my phone when I'm using certian apps.
ie. if you're trying to go online, any calls that might come in will go directly to VM.
Or even more unlikely, if you are in the middle of typing an SMS/MMS until the message is either sent, deleted, or put in the drafts folder the phone will be disabled without shutting off the radio, and any calls will be sent to VM.
It'd be great to have something like this, and also with the ability to pick various programs that you would like to use without being "disturbed".
Bump...
Anyone have any ideas about this?
I know this is not it, but it is pretty close:

you can use G-Profile by ageye to stop your phone/wifi/bluetooth/anything else you wanna do/ ... when you run a specific application.

Has anyone else had this problem? and Does anyone have an idea how to sort it?
This is the link to the program, it would be really useful for me if i can get it to work.

[Q] 'Tasker' android app problems/force closes

Hi!
I just got my SK4G the other week, and migrated over from a Motorola Milestone. I was using the brilliant 'Tasker' App on my Milestone, and when it came to getting the SK4G, I backed up my tasks and profiles, and am using the same SD card with the Sidekick.
My problem is that while all of the profiles I had set up are working fine, I am unable to create new ones because of the app continuously force closing. Whenever I try to set up a task, as soon as I get to the dialog to choose what actions to run, I get a short vibration, a pause, and then three quick vibrations followed by a force close. The rest of the app functions fine, and the tasks I'd already set up work perfectly.
I have tried:
Uninstalling and reinstalling the app,
Removing my backed up preferences and creating tasks on default settings,
Using a task killer to free up RAM,
Rebooting,
Waiting a few days and trying again,
although nothing is working. I am still unable to use the app, as this unexplainable force closes prevent me from doing anything.
I know what you're thinking, "Go ask the Tasker forums!" but I just thought I would try here, seeing as it's a fairly popular app and the phone is only new I think I would have better chance finding someone who also uses the app on SK4G and might be able to enlighten me or tell me they have the same problem.
So, anyone got any ideas? Anyone using Tasker without problems on SK4G?
When you tried to install it on your SK4g, did you download it from the Market or did you just install the APK from your old phone?
I downloaded it from the market again, although its not impossible that there could have been some app files left behind on the sd card. Do you know what they would look like?
Thanks for helping!
Also, I'm just headed to bed, so don't expect another reply immediately
I've got Tasker working just fine here, that might just be some part of having the old files on your phone. Can you pull off everything that you copied over and try to redownload it from Market to see if that works without an FC?
I'm cleaning out my SD card now, getting rid of any extra Tasker files, and going to try that, although I can't actually uninstall the app. I do it via the market and it still shows up and I can still open it... This is with the SD card mounted and unavailable...
why can't you uninstall it? you should be able to just click uninstall in the applications list? it isn't a system app so there shouldn't be a problem there. also, why is your sdcard mounted but unavailable? that's just confusing. maybe that's why it can't uninstall? if it's installed to your sdcard, maybe it can't get to the application to uninstall it?
Sorry, by 'mounted' I meant to say that I was using the usb mass storage so the SD card was unavailable.
I ended up working out that I had given Tasker some kind of permissions in security settings, and had to disable that to uninstall.
Went through with uninstall, formatted my SD card and tried from scratch with Tasker again. No luck. Have now restored my profiles so I can keep using them until I sort it out.
huh. that's weird. and you reinstalled from market, not from an apk?
Yep! nothing makes sense!
Have you been able to completely uninstall it from your phone through settings?
I did completely uninstall, yes. I then re-downloaded from the market and I'm getting the same thing.
and what exactly are you doing in tasker when it force closes?
I get FC whenever I try to click the + button to add an action to a task.
I also asked the Tasker forums/google groups thing, and they told me to install a beta version, and I have and it fixed everything
So if anyone else has been having these problems just grab the latest beta of Tasker from here:

The reson it fc is cuz u r stopping processes which are need to run for the device to work.......Well I will be honest with you,if ur talking about a task killer....ITS POINT LESS....unless u are a dev and plane to us ur phone for deving....because no matter how much ur stop things well they will just start runing againg and well the appes are waste of space if u want to spot app, go to mune,then apps, manage apps and stop the ones u don't want....
No, Tasker is something completely different - it lets you automate lots of Android things

Android app issue

Hello,
We have a custom application that was developed outside of our org and we are in the process of obtaining the source so i am going to be vague but hoping someone can perhaps point me to some ideas until i get it.
When you install the application, run it, log in to it all works fine. You come back a day or 7 later for example and you now are brought immediately to a white window. This is where the login is supposed to be.
I haven't tried this on anything else but samsung devices so an s5 and s6 Android 6.0.1 and it happens on both. Both of these are old verizon phones.
To resolve it at least with these 2 devices is to go to settings/accounts and delete the account that gets setup as part of the application it seems. Once i do this and exit out of the app, open it back up i am brought to the login screen as i would expect.
For some the above does not work but simply clearing out the cache seems to resolve the issue.
Last, uninstalling and reinstalling the application has also worked for some.
for a period this worked without issue and then all of a sudden started doing this. We aren't certain if there was a change in android that resulted in this or what. Anyone have any ideas how to get us back on track here?
Thanks.
