Hi folks,
since the Oreo update my auto enable task in Tasker stopped working. Tasker seems to be unable to switch the Wifi Hotspot on Oreo. I made a task that enables a hotspot for my car infotainment system as soon as the phone got connected to it automaticaly.
Any way to do this on Oreo with or without Tasker?

It appears that with Lollipop, Google has decided to close an unpublished (private) method (setMobileDataEnabled) that many developers were able to use to manage the data functionality. Is there anyway around this to allow for applications like Tasker or AutoTether to turn the mobile hotspot on when it connects to a specific bluetooth profile?
Hi All
I have a rooted android TV box that I also use as a wifi router (cable from router is connected to TV Box which is then shared through wifi)
However I have to always do that manually by going into settings. Is there any script that I can launch on startup to enable wifi tethering automatically?
I tried searching but it didnt help.
Thanks in advance.
Recently purchased the LG V30 (ATT) and I'm missing a feature I've had for years on my old phones w/ CM roms. I like my phone to automatically turn on/off WiFI tether when the phone connects to the car's bluetooth. CM roms came native with Profiles and it was a simple setup. I have installed apps like Llama and MyProfiles which technically does the same thing, but in order for the HotSpot to turn on I have to open the phone and unlock the screen. It will message "Authenticating" and the WiFI tether will kick on.
Obviously the phone is non-root. Is there a setting or an app that can bypass the screenlock to authenticate
Thanks,
I just updated to Oreo last Friday and I noticed one change in the tethering - When I enable Mobile Hotspot, the default IP address of the G5 is 192.168.43.1.
On my client (not the phone), I have a script to ping the 192.168.43.1 IP to detect if it is using hotspot or not. But after Oreo upgrade, that ping always fails.
Can someone tell me if this behavior change is related to Oreo? Is there a Firewall enabled by Oreo? Can I have it turned off?
Also, when turning on Hotspot, Wi-Fi is turned off as expected. But when Hotspot is turned off, Wi-Fi is not turned back on. I think this behavior is changed. I remember my Wi-Fi is turned back on when I disable HotSpot. This can be quite annoying.
Hello,
with EMUI 9, I had an Automate Flow that automatically enabled the WiFi Hotspot when connected to a certain bluetooth device (car).
With 9.1, this does not work anymore, Automate throws a "NoSuchMethodException".
Is anyone else experience the same issue, or has an alternate way of enabling the Hotspot when connected to a car?

Sebastian
