Ok, so I'm new to Tasker I will admit, but has anyone successfully setup theirs to turn off 4g when the screen is off?, or off unless a certain app is open? thanks

If that is all you need, use JuiceDefender. It does it automatically
There isn't LTE support yet for Tasker. It is on their todo list:

Hey guys,
I have been using Tasker for a while now, and I really love it.
I just have one problem that I can't seem to figure out.
I want it to kill eBuddy when I'm near my house, and want to run it when I leave my house.
Now, I have the following profile already set up:
If location (home) --> Kill app (eBuddy).
But, how can I make it turn ON eBuddy when I leave house? So, If location (not home) --> Run app (eBuddy).
Is this even possible?
Thanks in advance!
Is all this time and effort really easier than just pressing a shortcut?
You are bucking the trend my friend, most people are obsessing about stopping apps running lol

How should the phone know, when you enter your workplace. There has to be some kind of trigger and in fact i dont really think that it is that hard to open the settings and turn wifi on. Create a shortcut or use an unofficial rom f.e. TW mod there you can switch wifi on in the drop down bar.

I think Juice Defender Ultimate has a feature that uses the gps to do that.

Yes the iphone has that app...so Android should also. Thats what apps are there for...to make our lives easier.
Was mentioned in this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1177372 that roll out will start this weekend.
But what is the trigger for your workplace? Should the wifi turn on 30mins after you say “‘til later honey!“ or what? GPS is more battery expensive than its worth. Tell me how the phone should know when you are at work?

Found a solution already?
Else try Llama from KebabApps. It uses the cell locations for finding your position. No GPS is needed. Can switch a lot of things beside WiFi. Also time dependant tasks are possible.
Honestly I used it some time ago. But my workplace is too near to my home. So it never knew exactly where I am ;-)

thanx, i installed "tasker", still havent figured out yet how it works
will also try llama
Another vote for llama. Tasker is much more powerful, but I found llama more useful because it was so simple. The developer has been adding features and improving performance and respond to emails promptly. I really need to buy it already.

I use "WeFi - Automatic WiFi" (NO, no typo! It's with an "e"...), free in the Market.
It makes a Wifi-connection in places that u assign as "always log in here"....
Works fine for me!

Hi!
I'm looking for an app which directly activate or desactivate the wifi without going on the wifi settings screen, just a toggle.
I know there are plenty of them, but all of them just bring to the wifi settings screen.
i would like an app which acts exactly like "Stop the Music!" (as I'm a new member, i can't post the link to the marketplace..) when pinned to startscreen: it just stop music without showing any screen of the app (actually, very quickly..)
Do you think it's possible or WP doesn't allow it?
Thanks
I use "Connectivity Shortcuts" from App store. Works great. I have 2 tiles one for WiFi and one for Cellular data
Thanks for replying, but this app is acting exactly like the others, it just brings you to the wifi settings screen.
But when u read the description of your app, it is written that, at this time, it is not possible to put a direct toggle on startscreen..

Q: Why dont you put toggles right on the startscreen?
A: I would love to do so but currently this is not possible.

Someone could me confirm that?
I'm afraid it's not possible at all at the moment. It's a matter of APIs I guess. Hopefully this will change with WP8...

Hi. :fingers-crossed:
I'm looking for an app I've have not found until now :
I'm student with a known planning. I'd like my phone automatically locks screen after a certain amount of time when I'm in course (Of course,I know how to do this). But when I am not at school I'd like my phone does not locks his screen.
Do you know an app doing that?
Thank you.

Check out the app Tasker, using that you can create a profile to customize lockscreen timeout depending on time, location etc. You might even be able to find a tasker profile that already does this online.

Hello,
I would like my phone to hang up ongoing WhatsApp call if there is one daily at a certain time. It doesn't matter if it would be with Airplane mode, hanging up, or just killing the app.
I highly appreciate any answers even if you can tell me it's not possible.
Thank you
Tasker can sort that out.

Are you certain about this? Some people said this about a free app called Llama but it said that I need to root my phone which I dont want to. And this Tasker app costs money. thank you

You can find Tasker mod somewhere on the Internet. You don't have to pay.
I think Tasker would need root to kill an application as well but I am not sure about it since I haven't killed applications so far.
