General :: Tasker / Setting App-specific Keyboard?
Dec 8, 2012
Trying to figure out how to configure my Nexus 4 to use Hacker's Keyboard with specific apps. I like the "swipe typing" for most stuff, but I want HK for ConectBot and some other terminal stuff. The phone is rooted and far I have the following apps: Tasker, Keyboard Swap for Tasker, Secure Settings installed. I've tried a few different things I've found online, but nothing has worked.

I am trying to set up a profile so that while I am driving if I get an SMS a reply is automatically sent. I can get that pretty easy. Here is the tricky part:
I want the reply sent with the exception of 2 numbers:
1. 32665*** (Facebook) - any reply is posted to my FB account so obviously I don't want an auto reply here. The *** is different with every text thread from FB.
2. (123)456-7890 - One number I don't want the auto reply sent to.
I tried Send SMS ... if "%CNUM !~ 1234567890", but when I set that condition a response was not sent to other numbers.
How can I set it to ignore both of the numbers I listed, and how do I format the "if" conditions.

Since KitKat has been released Android has a new setting to allow us to use a "battery saving" version of location. I am wondering if I could actually control this setting using Tasker. Example would be only when I open maps do I want to use the "High Accuracy" version. I can not seem to find this in Tasker as there has not been a new version since KitKat. Is there another way of doing this? Script? Etc?

today, a mayor update for touchpad has been released (v4 -> v5). i like the new look, but the keyboard has lost a key function: it was possible in v4 to hold on a letter and drag it down to write the secondary function.e.g.: hold "h" and drag it down -> "&".it was also possible to edit the secondary functions. v5 doesn't allow me to do this.

Is there a way to create a shortcut to a specific setting? For example, can I create an icon on my home screen that, when tapped, will take me straight to the Screen timeout settings screen or the Wi-Fi settings screen?

I'd like to set the ringer mode to silent for specific events in the future. It should only happen if a checkbox in the preferences is checked. I know that I have to update the manifest for the permissions and also that I can set the ringer mode with something like this:
if (getPreferences(MODE_PRIVATE).getBoolean(PREFS_KEY_SILENTOPTION, false)) {
AudioManager audioManager = (AudioManager) getSystemService(AUDIO_SERVICE);
audioManager.setRingerMode(AudioManager.RINGER_MODE_SILENT);
}
But how can I set (and reset) it for a space of time in the future?

Is there a way to create an app specific soft keyboard on Android? After reading about InputMethodService docs and checking out alternative keyboard apps out there, I figure the alternate keyboard can only be configured for system wide usage (through Settings -> Locale and Text).
If the answer to above question is no, then is there at least a way to load a custom dictionary and override the default dictionary of the system keyboard (only when my app is in use)? That will help in giving very relevant suggestions to the user when he has only tapped couple of keys.

I have had androids for over two years now and am getting more and more concerned every time I download an app and seeing that it wants to READ my SMS message and Contacts.
Is there a way I can disable reading of SMS messages or any one of the other permissions by specific apps, or all apps?
Are we living in a world where any "joe schmo" can upload an app the to the app store and wait for those inadvertent downloads and collect all your personal information, and that's after all the time we spend protecting our identity and personal details?

Can anyone confirm whether the keyboard has been changed from the Droid 2 to Droid 2 Global? I had read that it has been changed but would like to know the specific differences. Hands on reports or pics would be ideal.

I just got a Nexus One, which I like a *lot* (reformed iPhone user here). The only thing I can't stand is that the keyboard often takes as long as 30 seconds to appear when I touch the text entry field to reply to a text. Has anyone else experienced this? Any guidance/suggestions?

What I'm trying to do is call-forward my number to Dell VOIP when connected to WiFI, but I want to kill the Dell Voice app when I'm not connected to wifi because it's a battery drainer. So far I have everything setup so that when I'm on WiFi, all calls get routed through WiFi into the Dell Voice app.. what I cannot figure out how to do is kill the app once I disconnect from WiFI. I tried searching but couldn't find an answer.

I really like the motorola "always ready" feature where you can say "Ok, Google Now" and bring up google now instantly. Is it possible to integrate voice actions into tasker?

I have Tasker on my phone, since I just downloaded the app a few days ago. I have been trying to create a profile where if im connected to my home wifi, the lock pattern on my lockscreen will be off. if im not connected to my home wifi network, I want the lock pattern to be back on. I followed Armandas guide on YouTube but it did not work for me. BTW im on a Galaxy s2, using a 4.2.2 ROM with the DashClock widget as my default lock screen.

I'm looking for a way to use data from Torque in Tasker.
I want to take data from torque and use it to drive actions in Tasker. Specifically, I'd like to turn the screen on when the engine comes on. Is anyone aware of previous work done in this area that might get me started? Or, would I need to code a Tasker plugin?
I'm aware I could accomplish this using ACC power as the on/off flag, but I'd like to charge the tablet at all times and not just when the car is running.

How is the app 'Tasker' made? It runs a lot of activity's in the background, and how could you do that with your own app?
I'm making a Virtual Assistant app for Android and I need it to be checking for when the user say's "Okay, Google" or something like that. I need to do something like an Automation app, thats always checking for user input?

so hopefully this question/problem isn't as simple/dumb as my previous.I've somehow messed up my keyboard settings or language. the bottom right and bottom left buttons now have some Chinese/Japanese text on them and the bottom left button turns on some alternative keyboard options and changes my text output to Japanese.Now I presumed this was simply something in my language settings but I've set them back to UK and still no joy.I'm also using Handcent sms and the Handcent keyboard ui but that's not displaying either. Tried un-install/reinstall but no luck.

I want to stop and start tasker by itself via a bashscript since I see no other way to do so. This works if you put in terminal line by line:
Code:
am force-stop net.dinglisch.android.taskerm
am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n net.dinglisch.android.taskerm/net.dinglisch.android.taskerm.Tasker
killall net.dinglisch.android.taskerm
But now I'm stock
My guess was that it would have to work if i put in a file "kst.sh" and run
Code:
sh ./kst.sh
as root.
But it doesn't work and it seems to ignore the linebreaks in the file.
So here I am, knowing the commands and need to run them with one call. How do I do that?

I'd like to have Tasker read incoming texts to me while in the car but pause and playing media first. I have a profile setup to trigger the task and everything work, except the part about pausing the media. As it is now it just read the text over the top of the media and neither are understandable.
I've searched and I can't seem to find a reliable way to determine if media is playing, pause it, then play it again after the text is read. I'm familiar with %MTRACK, but that only works with some players (none of which I use). I typically use PlayerPro and BeyondPod.

I am a complete newbie with tasker. I am trying to create a profile with which I wish to auto-send an sms to wish people, for example on their birthday. So birthdays, set from contact appear on my calendar as "personName. Birthday"
I am able to trigger an action reading "*Birthday" in calendar event. But how do I pass the personName from the trigger, that matched "*Birthday" to the action to use as contact (directly or by extracting number for that contact) and the enter in the message like: Happy Birthday personName!

It seems there is a lack of support for using tasker.
My aim: When ran, use a tasker task to execute the WiFi for Root users tether start, and if I'm lucky, stop as well in a separate task.
What I have done: I have locale execute plugin. I start an execute task and in configuration I typed
Code:
/data/data/com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether/bin/tether start
as this is what is displayed when enabling tethering in the WiFi tether app itself.
The problem: Though when ran, this exe task does nothing. Wrong code? Wrong plugin in tasker? I want to do this not just for convenience, but also to learn.
See attached for reference.
