Would this be a tasker script or is there something that I can do without it? I want to open up my flip case and it start me off at Google Now but it is at a calendar now. Thanks in advance.
I wonder if replacing the daynote.apk app with another app renamed daynote.apk would work...
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
On a related note, is it possible to call daynote from a shortcut, without closing, opening the case?
I was able to figure it out, it is done with a tasker script. I have it so that with the display is unlocked, voice search is the app to open. Works like a charm now. I just need to get it to say opening ________ when it opens. I'll figure it out. :good:

I have Tasker, but have never done anything like you have done. Would you be willing to share your script, or online at a high level the steps you setup in Tasker?
Thanks!

I have autolaunch and autovoice as well. Reason why I wanted this was so that when I opened the case, I just open the case and to say the app that I wanted open and it works. But for this particular case, to open up the app as I have Google Now opening up
Tasker instructions.
Under Profiles
Go to Event -> Display -> Display Unlocked
Under Tasks
Go to App -> Load App then just select the app you want to open
That is what I have and that should work.
Wow, how simple! Thanks!

Okay so I'm trying to get an app to autorun whenever my phone boots. More specifically the app "Screen Filter".
So far I've found the app "autostart.apk" that claims it will autorun the file /data/opt/autostart.sh
Basically I'm asking how do I make this autostart.sh file and place it in that directory?
If it helps, here is the 'receiver' info about Screen Filter
- com.haxor.ScreenFilterWidget
--> android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE
--> com.haxor.ScreenFilter.ACTION_FILTER_TOGGLED
- com.haxor.LocaleReceiver
--> com.twofortyfouram.locale.intent.action.FIRE_SETTING
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

I believe you would have to edit the AndroidManifest.xml for the app and use the BOOT_COMPLETED intent.
I'm not sure if there's an easier way to autorun apps after booting.
Are you able to guide me to the details on this? I understand what you're saying I just am clueless on how and what to do
I've never done it before. However, you might want to try this link as a guide:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1056570/how-to-autostart-an-android-application
Wow that is thoroughly confusing. Where do I get these files that I need to edit? I am rooted by the way

Oh wait. The example I linked to earlier is more development-level information. To use that with an existing application, you'd have to decompile, edit, and then rebuild, sign, blah, blah.... Sorry about that.
Not too sure on how to use 'Autostart (Root),' though. If I can figure it out later, I'll add to this thread.
Have you tried emailing the creator of 'Screen Filter' (https://profiles.google.com/bslatkin/about) to see if maybe he'd consider adding a launch-on-boot option to his app? It appears he works at Google, and the app is small, so he might be persuaded to do a quick update.
I'm Looking for an app that you can set up a schedule to have your phone reboot at a specific time every day. I know about "Fast Reboot" and those type of apps, but I'm looking for something that fully reboots the phone, hardware and all. Anyone know of an app that does that?
I would think Tasker could probably do it.
I haven't used tasker before and I have read that it is complicated to use so I was hoping for something a little more simple. Plus, I don't really need tasker for anything else so that would be kind of an expensive rebooting app. But I bet your right and that it could do it and thank you for taking the time and giving me your suggestion.
Why woukd you need a reboot app? Just curous
Sent from my Vibrant on Ultimate 2.2.1
I don't need it per say. But I thought it would be nice to have it reboot and be ready in the morning right away. I just reboot my phone every morning and to have it done automatically would be cool. That's all.

Also charging is better with phone off on GB so having the ability to have the phone turn on at a set time would still allow use of an alarm...theoretically anyway. I've actually thought about this but haven't looked into it.

Theres no way to have the phone turn on by itself while it is not on...he probably means he just wants his phone to reboot itself like a half hour before he wakes up every morning so its fresh and ready to go, and he has all that nice reboot-RAM to play with.

Thanks, I will check that app out. And yes, you knew exactly what I meant. Thanks, I couldn't think of another way to explain it and you did perfectly.
Titanium Backup would be the easiest way to do it, but you have to back stuff up, which you're probably doing, anyway, right?
I would have paid at least $20 for it, and it's been worth much more to me than that.
You can use Script Manager to write a script that reboot
(Create a Script in your SD card, under the #!/system/bin/sh line just write the word reboot, it should look like this:
#!/system/bin/sh
reboot
)
Afterwards, long hold that script, and then change it so that it Run as root.
DO NOT check the Run at boot, or else it'll infinitely reboot.
then in Script Manager, go to Menu --> Advanced Options --> Scheduler
and then schedule the time you want it to reboot. Then press add script, add that script you just made.
I came across this app at the market that was just put up today called DroidLu.
This app will allow you to watch Hulu on our SGT 10.1 without needing any flash hack! It costs 99 cents I would have paid more for this since it made it possible for me to watch Hulu! Now 3.2 has come to our tablet previous hacks don't work.
I can confirm it works!
Currently on Tsk650 V5 GT-P7510
Note that Hulu only works when you run it through Droidlu app. And make sure that you have latest flash player 11

It's barely an app. It's very difficult to scroll on the progress bar, very difficult to adjust the volume. The worst part is that the return button doesn't take you to the previous page. So you have to start all over again when you click on the wrong button. If you hit the lock button, you also have to start all over again after unlocking. So, if you want to want the show from beginning to end without interruption, without any misclicks, without jumping forward or adjusting volume, this is the app you want.

Has anyone gotten this app to work on a 3.2 ROM? I've tried it on overcome 2.0 and Task 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2 with no luck. When the video starts to load it just closes.
Any one else?
You can get hulu to work using the old method. You just have to remove flash, copy the old .so to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer, reinstall flash from the market, then use a hex editor to change the plugin variable AND to WIN. I am running galaxy task 5.3 and I just watched Castle without any problems.

Would you mind creating a new thread with a sticky how to?
My experience today:
Search the market for "DroidLu" and it will bring up an app called Flash Video Browser by Dan Lockard for just under a buck. I just found out about it on droidforum, installed it on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and it works! I'm watching Modern Family right now!

Yep, just installed and it works perfectly. I'll give his FlashBrowser a try in a sec, because this is definitely worth $0.99!
EDIT: Spoke too soon. FlashBrowser shows as not compatible with my Verizon 4G LTE tab. I'll stick with the old DroidLu APK (linked above, working) and see if there's another way to donate to him.
Hey guys,
I really wanted the "Ok Google" from home like I have on my Nexus. After doing this, you can press the home button to wake the device up and then simply say "ok google, remind me to talk to my boss when I get to work". It takes specific versions of the apps to make this work and I located a combination that wiill do the job.
You will need:
Google Play Store installed
Google Search installed from Play Store.
A copy of ADB
Installation
Un-tar.gz this file with whatever program you use for file compression, to a folder called "GoogleLauncher"
Navigate to the "GoogleLauncher" folder,
Using your copy of ADB, type "adb remount", then "adb push *.apk /system/app"
Go to Settings>System>Accessibility>Quick Boot and disable Quick Boot
Reboot your watch.
Conclusion
This worked for me. If you're having problems or you'd like this turned into an app you can download and press a button to perform the tasks above, let me know.

On my S2, Google Now is both part of the Google Launcher and Google Search. For those of us running Loki's EnSec + Operative, does the Google Launcher below replace SmartLauncher as the home action? In other words, are we giving up SmartLauncher / WP8 Launcher / OUI2.0 to get Google Now?

What about making it a flashable zip? Operative includes TWRP, so we should be able to flash system APKs.

Or just download and install the apk?

Jaskru, I was wondering the same thing. I did what you suggest above back in February, and the OK Google launcher has been an option ever since. Works better than typing, for most stuff.
I am otherwise on unrooted stock, though I do not suggest others use their TrueSmarts unpatched at all.

I remember when we were first trying to do it before Loki came out with the patch + operative we had to push services (velvet.apk) as a system app... Now, when you get the device and install Loki's patch (+operative I think) or Dees rom that has that stuff in it too you have the up to date velvet.apk as a system app. And, of course you need the search.apk too.
That's where I was coming from. If someone is going to try and push an apk as a system app, they may as well just run Loki's script instead. Thanks for sharing though.
Hey @AdamOutler, Have you seen any differences with the battery life? Thanks for the Post, I got it setup the first try. I was just curious as to what I should expect?
Update: For a simple launcher, this is pretty nice. The apps and the drawer fit nicer then Apex did, even with a ton of setup. Smart launcher is nicer than apex, but there's a lot of setup as well. I just launched the Now launcher and it just worked. My apps look nice and the drawer is clear and easy to read. Now all i want is for my watch to do the notifications like the android wear demo!
you need a computer to run this correct? for the adb part of it? any change you guys can post a screenshot of your launcher so i could see how it looks prior to installing it later when i get home. been switching between nova and wplauncher8
Thanks,

Stop trolling my thread. You're wrong and now you're looking for loopholes. No, its not in the operative patch. I don't create threads for no reason. Judging by your Post to Thanks ratio, you post unhelpful comments like this one all the time. Just stop it. You're being unhelpful, cluttering the thread, and adding misleading information.

It just looks like a standard Nexus AOSP launcher with a 4x4 grid. It's small, but usable.
Wasn't trying to troll Adam. Was just participating. Guess it was just magic then for me when I flashed the patch and dl and installed the apk with no issues. Sorry for sharing my experience with you.
Is anyone getting a substantial amount of google search crashes since setting this up?
I have been using Google Now as one of my three alternative launchers for over a month. It has never crashed. I say, "OK Google.....launch Tapatalk" and it does. "OK Google....call susan" and it asks me whether to use Phone or Skype (Skype started working for me on the TS after some recent update), then places the call.
To enable this, I followed the same guide I used to get Google Now onto my Nexus4 before KitKat was released for it. Best I can remember I just side loaded a couple of apk's using a guide on some android web site like Android Police maybe. It just worked, appearing as a launcher option with the other two I already had in place.
All this was on my stock insecure unpatched 1/8/1900 with the shipping 20140120 firmware and Google Play side loaded as usual.
I've got screencaps ! They are on the TS though, and I cannot type on that thing hardly still.

Lost my notifications launcher
Hi everyone,
One thing I noticed when I switched to this launcher: no notifications bar on the top. Did anyone else get this? Something to think about if you're going to make it your default.
I'm running cm11. I use my phone as an alarm clock and my with an xbolt dock or something like that. Every time I into a dock it all's me if I want to make it my default everything's or just once. Is there any way to get rid of feature? I use nfc tags and tasker to guide what app to use. I've searched and can't find anything. Simply put, I dont want it to launch anything when I dock it.

Well it will launch something until you select ”Always".. Instead of hitting "Just Once"..
But other than that I don't believe there is a way to remove that prompt
