TASKER
Hi every one!!I have been using this app called tasker which i have found(after many pains and struggling) is the best app you will ever get which enables you to extract the best out of your phone!! I manage to save lot of battery automatically with the help of this app!!
I haven't been able to be a ninja of tasker and i have also found out that many users find it difficult to understand how tasker works given the complexity of the ui!!
So i have decided to share a few tips that will get you started in using this great app
So basically tasker is an app that tells our android that if we do something or something happens or u enter some location etc (context) the system should perform something!!(task)
In simple words i will define tasker which performs something (tasks) when we do something (contexts)
Now lets get started!!
​
When you first start tasker you will have to go through some formalities and then you will see a basic screen!!
Hit NEW that you see below.You may name your profile that you are about to create!!
Next you will see is a list of contexts!!
lets see what does they mean!!​
1.Application- this indicates that you will be starting an application and then you want tasker to do something.
2.Time- This simply says that you want something to happen at/within a given time.
3.Day- same as stated above.!! difference is you want something to take place on a given day.
4.Location- You want your phone to do something at any particular given location!!
5.State- Some kind of tasks need to be performed when your phone enters a current state!! (eg charger plugged in, headset plugged in etc)
6.Event- Lists of combined events that happen/keeps happening on your phone!!
Now after selecting a context you are required to create a task that you want to be performed by tasker!!
you may name your task. After that hit the + button. You are taken to this screen!!
.
There you will see a pretty large lists of tasks that can be performed by tasker!!
lets see what they are!!
1.Alert- Variety of options that you want to be notified of!!
2.Audio- sounds that you want to play or dont want to play!!
3.App- tasks concerning apps (for eg load app, kill app etc)
4.Display- Settings and tasks related to display of the phone (eg brightness etc)
5.File- tasks concerning file operations..
6.Media- tasks concerning with media options (eg pics, music etc)
7.Net- internet and apn options (wifi, 3g etc)
8.Plugin- plugins for other apps installed (eg Minimalistic texts, astrid )
9.Variable- It is something that keeps on varying!! (P.S still trying to understand it!!)
10.3rd Party- third party apps that integrate with tasker!!
11.Dialog- opens dialogue boxes (for eg Accessibility settings, date, bluetooth settings etc)
12.Encryption- encryption of files.
13.Input- Open options that changes your input settings!!
14.Misc- Name describes all!!
15.Phone- Action related to phone (calls, messaging mms etc)
16.Tasker- some killer tools provided by tasker (end if, goto action etc)
17.ZOOM- extending functionality to the zoom app created by the same developer!!
Revision!! ​
Tasker is an app that executes some tasks on the commencement of certain contexts.
After selecting task/tasks your are done!!
You may add an exit task that tells tasker what to do after the end of the context/task!!
Thats it!! Your done!!

A few examples!!
Now here are a few examples for us!! The following examples are very very simple yet very very useful!!
1.Automatically display music menu when you plug in your headset.
-Context>State>Headset Plugged.
-Tasks>Add Task>Action Categories>App>Load App>Music Player.
2.Automatically increase brightness while phone rings!! (specially helpful in the sun!!)
-Context>Event>Phone>Phone Ringing.
-Tasks>Add Task>Action Categories>Display>Display Brightness>set level to 220
-(add another task)>Action Categories>Tasker> Wait>15 seconds
-(add yet another task)>Action Categories>Display>Display Brightness>set level to your normal level.
3.Keep full brightness while charging the phone!!
-Context>State>Power>Source set to Any
-Task>New Task>Action categories>Display>Display Brightness>Set Desired level
Battery Saver Profiles
Now above mentioned profiles are a few simple profiles.!! Lets move on as to how we can save the battery of our life!!
I have seen that internet/mobile data has been a very big battery eater!!
There are apps using the mobile data to fetch data from their servers!! (facebook, gmail etc)
But whats the use of fetching data every hour while we are sleeping!!
So here is a simple profile of how to save battery by forcing mobile data to go to sleep while we go to sleep!!
4. Switching off mobile data while you sleep!!(assuming you sleep from 11 pm to 5 am!!)
-Context>Time>From 23.00>To 05.00
-Task>Action Categories>Net>Mobile Data>set off
4.1 You dont want anyone to disturb at all!
instead of muting the notifications every night why not give this responsibility to tasker??
-(continuation to above) Task>Action categories>Audio>Silent Mode>Set ON
Hey hold on!! Why not do something more while sleeping!! Tasker very easily integrates 3rd party apps and carry out their work easily!! And also do the tasks mentioned in profile # 4
5. Using sleepbot app automatically to track your sleep time and calculate your sleep debts!!
-Context>Time>From 23.00>To 05.00
-Tasks>Action Categories>3rd Party>Sleepbot>Punch set To IN
-Task>Action Categories>Net>Mobile Data>set off
-Task>Action categories>Audio>Silent Mode>Set ON
-Tasks>Action Categories>Tasker>Wait>5 Hours 55 Minutes
-Tasks>Action Categories>3rd Party>Sleepbot>Punch set To OUT
You may also set any location as context and then add tasks that need to be carry out their!! For eg when i am in college i previously had to put my phone on silent and turn on mobile data every day.!!
After knowing about tasker, and using the location context, everything is done automatically now!!
So these are just a few of the basic profiles!! Tasker is much much much more powerful than all these petty profiles!!
Also make sure you first test your profiles whether they are working or not!!

I am no perfect and can make mistake just like anyone!!
So please if i have made any mistake in the above tutorial please correct me!!
Special Thanks to the dev of Tasker for making this amazing app!!
My friend Brandall is taking pains and doing an awesome work to spread his in depth knowledge on tasker in this thread!! Go here and attain mastery in tasker and make your android phone work wonders for you!!

[APP][25MAR10][v2.4.0.2]Power Radio - FM player with RDS decoding

Why PowerRadio?
The built-im FM player - at least on HTC HD - misses many features i'd like to have in a FM radio. PowerRadio delivers many data available via RDS which would otherwise be invisible to the listener. Here are just a few examples:
- Radiotext: contains information broadcast by the respective station. What you get here totally depens on the broadcaster. You might see title and interpret, call-in numbers, SMS trafficservice numbers, URL's etc.
- traffic announcements, program type, coverage area, date, time, timezone, various status flags
More info on RDS can be found in this post.

fantastic! works great on my raphael (6.5)
thanks
Now I just change the color brown ..
I am using Raphael 6.5 ROM too.
I couldn't hear anything after installation but I couldsee RDS data on the screen.
I closed and replaced GFMAPI then it works.
Suggestion: add indicator of loading/unloading progress such as a spinning hourglass.
Heya. Nice to see you released your radio Looking quite good! I like the classic yellow/brown look.
Just two remarks I found so far..
1) When on speaker mode, shutdown and restart, it's on full volume. Woke half my family with it ;-) Could you enforce the previous volume on startup?
2) Could you change the sensitivity setting to allow higher sensitivity? When at 9 I still get way too many 'static noise' stations. I need it to go to at least 15 or so. Besides, sensitivity is more like 'minimal signal level'. Else a value of '0' implies less sensitive, while it seems to be even more sensitive.

right.
I was listening with headphones
Hi,
That's great for a start! I'm impressed!
I have found some bugs:
- The volume level is louder than the volume indicator after a close/restart.
- After a close/restart, the names of the preset buttons change from for example "87,5" to "87" with the "5" under the "87" (see pics)... After that the preset button for my example tunes to "87" and not to "87,5". If I try to edit the name, only "5" is editable.
- There's a problem with the police you use: after I use Power Radio, the font of the task manager on my Touch HD is replaced by yours (see pic)... I have to soft reset to get it back.
Will it be possible to:
- store more presets
- store the name of the station instead of the frequency during the scan
- add the possibility to record the radio
One more question, but it may be for flywhc: when the reception is not good, the name of the station can be misspelled (the other information also can be wrong)... I thought the checkwords in RDS groups could help in detecting these errors and not transmit a wrong block.
Did not open on Touch Pro 2. Installed fine. When opened it, error came "can't open GFMAPI"
Hi, Looks good however it isn't working on my verizon diamond. It opens and say wait loading forever. If you close and restart the ap I get can't open GFMAPI. I also noticed that it changes my HTC task bar font to the digital font. Well i'm looking forward to your next rev. Thanks for the hard work.
Thanks everyone for your comments. I added a todo list to the first post reflecting your suggestions.

I forgot to mention that country settings are ignored in this version. I'm using a WWE rom where comma is a ".", on your screenshot i see a french version where obviously comma is ",". I will add country support later - it's on the todo.

Thats possible, but would extend scan times dramatically as i've to wait for RDS data to arrive. And then there are still broadcasters without RDS at all. I'll consider adding a scan option for that.

I have no plans for writing another audio recording app, but it should be possible to integrate with an existing one. Will check that out.

It's not flywhc's fault, GFMAPI delivers the checkwords but at the moment they are simply ignored . Added to todo.

I dont know your device, does it have a built-in FM radio app? Could you try to run flywhc's APITest (see first post) and see if it opens/plays?
After closing PowerRadio, you have to wait for approx. 10 secs. before restarting it. This is due to hidden threads running in background after exit. I'll add waitcursors in future releases to indicate that.
You could try to run a manual scan while it still displays "wait loading", or manually step through frequencies to a known station. Please let me know the outcome.
Can you add landscape support??
Hello,
What a great app !!! Thanks a lot...
Just one question... Will you provide some skins for this app ???
Thanks again man !

Yes, although it would need a fair amount of redesigning the GUI.

I'm not very talented when it comes to grafics and skins, so i better dont - trust me Currently it wouldnt be possible too, as many elements are hardcoded. As a best effort i could modify the GUI to make skins possible, i'm sure there are some grafics genius'es out there to fill the gap.

Hi, this is great! What about adding in the recording FM radio function?
That would really add value to our HTC devices!

My TP2 came with FM radio installed. I listen to it everyday. Everytime I run this application, keeps coming with the mapi error as mentioned above.
Looks great already!
On Topaz (HTC Touch Diamond2) the volume is really really low. Increasing system volume to max. didn't help. Are the up(green) and down(red) arrows for volume? They don't do anything on my device either.
Thanks!

I'll see if i can interface with an existing app, no plans to write a new one.
Excellent idea here. I installed, started it, it finds stations, but there is no audio at all. It also seemed to disable sounds throughout the whole system while it was on. Any ideas here? I am using a custom ROM with windows 6.5. Be glad to help you troubleshoot. Also, seems to have changed the font in Taskmanager Thanks for the work you have done so far

[APP][03/05/2010]hdSpeedo - v0.7.3

Thanks for you application.
I see the bars on the top left corner. Is it GPS signal status ? If so, why the bars is still there when I stop GPS ?

Ah, that would be a bug..
Cheers, have added it to bug tracker and will resolve it shortly.
Great little application. Thank you.
A suggestion, perhaps an adjustable speed warning. IE change screen colour when over a set top speed. (or even stages of screen colour changes ie at 30/50/80 etc)
Thanks again
I noticed the name of your app "GPS Speedo" but some one already has that name for there GPS app over @ http://www.tchartdev.com/
So it'll get confusing to know whats what between the two.
Hi Ralph,
Tried your application yesterday and today and seems to be working fine. Speed shows nicely, AVG seems to be correct.
Some pointers you might wanna consider;
1- The font could be more clear. The "greyed" lines are a bit too visible I think
2- Are the gps records logged? You could integrate this into some kind of export. For people (like myself) who drive the same route to work every day, it would be fun to see some statistics..
3- Max. speed warning (no sound effects, please )
If I come up with something else, ill let you know. Thanks for the nice app!

1 - Still not decided on the font yet, I like the matrix style, but was going for the grid behind it. I might just remove that.
2 - They are not logged yet, I just need to know how people want it logged?
Raw nmea sentences
KML files to use in Google Earth
Or another way
3 - I though of this, how would you like it. Single speed or stepped as suggested before?
I am also going to provide logging for the trip, times/distance/(ave/max) speed etc
Cheers,
Paul.

Hmm, All I do is install the two fonts, I know that WM will use the best choice font, but that's a bit silly.
I'm going to remove this one from the next release. Try going to \windows\fonts and deleting the Font that Ends in A___.ttf.

Happened the same to me...
Looks like the apps that are being affected are missing a font, I had this with the Facebook app installed by default on Dutty's Leo R4.
Windows Mobile tries to be clever if you select a font and it's not on the device, it chooses the one closest in size (I think) to the one it's trying to use, thus you get some Random effects.
I'll see if I can restrict the font to only be used by my app, deleting the font will revert your other apps back to normal.

But also 'cause GPS Speedo to become unusable? I didn't try though..
It is still usable, but the Gray background looks even worse.
At least your other apps are usable again.
I'll get an update out at the weekend.

Active developer +1
First change.
Removed one of the fonts as it was making other apps unusable, thanks MS..
Also changed the name as GPS_Speedo isn't unique by any means.
Remove previous version if installed.
Unzip the cab file, copy to device and kick off install with file manager.
Cheers,
Paul.
This is a great application Paul, my 300ZX's speedometer does not work, so I use this app as an alternative and help me stay in the speed limit. Cops always watching me if I passed the limit in the highway

http://www.box.com/s/xvgpvjtcpp19hi0n1d8d
the uninstall will revert to the stock framework/res/systemui/settings/android.policy files, so backup these files for your own sake before installing this mod. my working installation is arconium 7.1, so that's where my starting point was for these files. i've had some issues with the uninstaller from time to time, though, so let me know if it's not working for you and i'll see what i can do.
it's my first ever mod, so please let me know what you think, and if you have any more suggestions that you'd like to see included post 'em and i'll see what i can do.
equally, if anyone wants to see my working files, i tried to split out the mods into individual changes from the stock decompiled files as i found that easier to keep track of the changes. if they're any use to someone, just ask and i'll send you my working files.
Looks Cool! Awesome Work Dude
Nice mod bro btw interested in 2G/3G Toggle mod? Unfortunately my current mod is out of bandwidth till next month so if you want to port it by yourself you'll have to wait until 1st March.. or go to like-p's page on XMP themes and apps and he already ported the 2G/3G Toggle to XMP
any chance of getting back to kill app on its own without all the other stuff?
thanks

Ty, how do you turn mega bass on?

i don't see why not... do you need it as an installable zip, or are you more interested in the details of the changes so that you can hack around with it yourself? i'll see if i can get something sorted out for you on this score later on today either way.

2g/3g toggle mod could be a useful addition to this so thanks for the heads-up! i'll have a look and see if i can work out how to include it - i have to admit that the smali code is a complete pita to get my head around - such a shame apktool doesn't decompile into java instead as i've worked with that for over 12 years i don't suppose you know of a language primer for smali code at all?

Smali is essentially a java optimized for dalvik. It's easy to understand once you get used to it only that all the type is included in each object mentioned instead of one include directive on top of java file. another differences is that variable is assigned with a v (v1, v2, etc) and parameter is with p (p0 -> usually a replacement for 'this' inside object based function or just a first parameter in a static function, p1, p2, etc)

Hiya mate
Yer a flashable zip of just the back to kill would be awesome mate if you could, thank you. I would also be interested in the 2g/3g if you can figure it out mate.
Thanks for your time buddy and hope to hear something soon.

it's on once the files are installed for it, by all accounts. it's basically a tweak for better bass response from what i've been able to gather. there's more info on the thread i linked to above.

consider it done - should be attached to this post for you. for an undo, you should be able to just use the one from the first post. i've not had time to test the installer, so just let me know if you have any issues and i'll take a look later on tonight when i get back from work.

well, i've tried to keep the mods as separate as i can while i was doing them so that they could be combined. there's only a few that crossed over significantly, but the control panel mod was one of them. as it stands, i'm toying with the idea of trying to move it beneath the notifications as in landscape mode it takes up most of the available screen space, and the notifications aren't really visible. ideally, i'd do it more like miui, with the page of icons and a page for notifications, with the view defaulting to notifications if any are present. but that's just me - i really liked miui, but for some reason the touch-screen doesn't seem to respond properly on cm7/miui on the arc s. ah, well

sorry about that - i'll have another look at this later on today. might be as simple as me forgetting to put the correct jar file into the zip with a bit of luck :/
b
second attempt, then: try this instead just tried it on my phone, and seems to work fine for me this time. it still has the 'never' option on the display timeout in there too, as i'm a little pushed for time to pull all of those changes out, but there shouldn't be anything else left in there.
brilliant will give it another go, thank you

DarkPokemonGo

Hi,
I have developed an Xposed module to enable the pad in Pokemon Go.
The module allows to set a starting GPS position, set the pad speed an to start the game directly from the module UI (pressing the PokemonGo logo).
To enable/disable the pad, just switch to enable/disable.
The module DOESN'T USE MOCK POSITION. I used a different approach to develop the module.
For this reason, it's more difficult to discover (probably) by a mock location checker, but there is a little time delay between the click on the pad and the game position update.
It's still in development, so please report some issue or improvement suggestions.
Instructions:
1) Start the "DarkPokemonGo" app.
2) Set initial GPS position (default is Pisa, Leaning Tower) and speed (expressed as degrees for click, REALLY
recommended default speed is 0.0001). Remember to validate them (click on DONE,ENTER on keyboard)!!!
3) Enable module (and pad appears).
4) Start game (pressing the PokemonGo logo).
5) ENJOY!
Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for ban or other issues! Use this module on your risk.

FAQs
Does the eggs system work?
Yes! If you set a low speed (default one is fine) and move slowly from one point to another, it works!
Is the module noticeable?
It shouldn't. Anyway my advice is to set a starting point and then move slowly from one location to another using the pad. If you move quickly from a side to the world to another, you could be banned!
Do I need to enable mock location? And GPS?
No, mock location is not required. Yes, you need to turn GPS on.
Can you add the feature X?
Sure, I'm opened to improvement suggestions.

Just stopped working ? Check please !
Was working perfectly for a couple now just stopped working
My vision log/lat settings also didn't work
Hey! I was using your mod and was soft ban in less than 5 minutes.(bummer) but it's a great one just not unnoticeable enough for Niantic.
Would you be able to add an option to either continue from current location or add a map so we are able to select start location rather than the latitude and longitude?
Hey Darkalbo, thx for this great module! It's perfect for when it rains, I'm feeling lazy or I want to catch Italian pokemon. I have a few suggestions, though.
-I don't know what controls you use in your video, but my fingers are way to big to reliably use your navigation buttons. One possibility would be to put one button at every edge of the screen, maybe also translucent and with a N/E/S/W designation. But anything to make my movement less random would be a big help.
-GPS coordinates are not easy to work with, I think. It would be a little easier if there were some presets or profiles we could make for the coordinates, like actual location, last ingame location, Pisa, home.
-Option to turn vibration off?
That's just my two cents.
Does it solve the most common problem with xposed modules related to pokemon go? That being The Module/ Joystick disappears or the app closes as it can't retain in memory. 1gb RAM phone here. If yes , i'll sure try this
I tried this today. First of all, thank you so much for developing this module!!!
Some bugs that I found - it's difficult to maneuver and get the direction you want. Could you add a feature that gives you the option to start from your current position, and move around from there?
Also, when I was moving around locally and collecting from the Pokéstops, it was perfect. Then I put myself into the New York Botanicals and then my goodies stopped coming when I would spin a Pokéstop.

Very strange behaviour...
Try to restart your phone so the Xposed framework should reload the module.

It's unnoticeable by client side, but it's still noticeable from server side. If you go from NYC to Tokyo and then put your GPS location on London, they could think that you are cheating or you have invented teleportation
My advice is to move slowly from one location an another, without "jump".

I tried to make something similar to the nintendo game boy pad, this is the reason of the position of it.
Anyway I will probably add the N/E/S/W on pad.

Yes, my advice is to move slowly from one point to another and not just "jump". This is the reason because I have developed the option to set a starting point, and then just move slowly around the map, because in this way the module is unnoticeable from Niantic server. If you move from NYC to Tokyo or Paris in just 5 minutes, they could notice something strange
Picked lon/lat but once loaded in I'm stood in the middle of the ocean when I know it's a big city? Any ideas?
---------- Post added at 11:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:09 AM ----------
When I add a long lat of a big city I I'm standing in the middle of the ocean with nothing around me but when I clear the dark Pokemon cache it takes me to Pisa again.
I think they recognise me...
Or I became very unlucky or they are punishing me
It works fine for 6 minutes but after that I could move without catch any...

[App][Mod][MTCScreenClock] Modified minimalistic Version

Update 1
New Version now with a different picture and a Settings Section.
If you change settings finish with back button, not with home button.
Root
Hey guys,
I'm working on a costum MTCScreenClock App.
The best, you can keep the old MTCScreenClock,
as soon as there should come the ScreeMTCScreenClocknApp in foreground there will be a window asking which app you prefer.

Hey MattWi, great job. Always great to see new apps for our units. I've installed your app and it works good so far :good:
I have a question. Are there any settings? I would like to disable the transparency of the background for example.

Well this idea came into my mind already .
Unfortunately it's not that easy as i tough.
Anyway i plan to make a bigger project with some volunteers of this forum.
Maybe we can rewrite all Applications to build up a System which perfect fits to everyone of us.
It sounds harder than it is ... With enough guys we will be able to build something really nice .

Installed but don't appear when I touch 'moon' icon in status bar (built in screenclock appears but no prompt to select among new and old one).
I think there are some settings in mtc-mucis.ini in Malaysk ROM that controls screen saver.
Could somebody who is using this new one on Malaysk ROM how to configure?
Nice work and nice design. I miss the date dd-mm-yy maybe you can add the title of song .. and title of radio

Actually the moon icons triggers another App.
My App will appear as soon as the timeout for Screensaver comes.
You can set the timeout under Settings -> Display ?-> Screensaver.
I'm not sure about the menu point.

Well ... the thing is for that you will need to be online all the time.
I don't thing that many users are always online with their headunit.
This kind of feature is fast implemented i will give try next we .
Than the date will come true. :good:
Other question, are there any android developers here with some free time ?
I want something bigger that just a screensaver.
Maybe we could start developing from scratch with a Radio, Media, TV, DAB, etc. App.
With a generalized interface it wold be relly easy to share data over the apps.
(Like witch title is playing, which radio source is selected, etc ... )
Nice work my friend!! I like it because it shows the altitude too. It would be great in the future if you can add the radio station that is played(maybe the rds info) or the title of the song of the media player or poweramp!! Many thanks for your job and time!

Xposed-mtc-manager in .ini is a setting to specify alternative screensaver app.
Code:
# Including an alternate screen saver, if you specify false mechanism will work full-time:
screenClock=true
# Time off the screen when not set will be used the value of the full-time settings:
screenTimeout=60
# The name of the software package screensaver
screenPackage=com.microntek.screenclock
# Name aktiviti screensaver
screenClass=MainActivity
Don't use it so cannot test if it would work.
Anyone who use it may try and share info here.
P.S. What package name / activity should be used?
Any news?
Looks like this initiative lost its momentum...
Any new developments?
I Hope that there Will be More developments
Hi Matt, can I change the background image with a custom one?
Is it somewhere in a folder that I can change it?
How can i change text color?
