General :: How To Use Data From Torque In Tasker
Oct 8, 2012
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.

Trying to make Tasker automatically open and populate Astrid todo's task edit fields the way that so many other apps can using the Share menu. With pretty much any app being able to do this using Share, I figured it wouldn't be too hard to make Tasker do the same, but I'm having trouble finding out how.
I'm using the beta of Tasker so Send Intent replaces the previous two intent actions. The fields available are Action, Category, Mime Type, Extra, Package, Class, and Target. Right now Package is set to com.timsu.astrid and Class to com.todoroo.astrid.activity.TaskEditActivity, which manages to open the task edit screen. That intent is however from the Astrid widget so I don't know if that's even the right thing to use if doing this via the Share ability.

I was wondering how I can create a variable for whether or not my phone has data connectivity. I use google voice for texting (I have a sprint integrated google voice number), but when I go out I turn off my wifi/3g to save battery, and text with my stock SMS app. When I swipe upwards on my launcher (Nova launcher), my texting app launches (google voice). However, I would like that gesture to launch a Tasker task - one that launches Google Voice if my phone has data connectivity, or the stock SMS app if my phone does not have data connectivity. However, Tasker does not have a built in variable for data.
More specifically, I would like this task to do the following (in pseudocode)
if (%data == ON)
Launch Google Voice
else
Launch stock SMS app

One thing I am not seeing that I really want to do is:When I open the browser (turn wifi on).(I know how to do this)If wifi is not available ask if I want to turn on mobile data (This is what I can't figure out)If anyone has some suggestions I would love to hear them. Or if someone knows whether or not this is even possible please let me know.

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.

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?

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!

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?

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.

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.

I really would like to be able to send an intent to spotify via Tasker, so that I could make tasker launch spotify AND start playing a certain playlist?
Since for example shazaam can send an intent to spotify and directly start a song in spotify, this has to work?
To use your BT-headphones and you dont even need to take the phone out from your pocket.

When trying to use tasker to shut off wifi after touching an nfc tag I occasionally get the following:
It happens about 50% of the time and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm running on an AT&T Galaxy S3 running Task's AOKP newest build. Is this a tasker issue or something else entirely?

I have a profile that changes my ringtone based on my location using cell near context and then flashes a message "Ringtone changed". Is there a way to retrieve the ringtone I'm changing it to from the Default Ringtone task and flash "Ringtone changed to %x" instead?

This profile is driving me nuts. It can be found all over on the internet as it's quite common, but my phone will just not run it. I simply want my GPS signal to turn on when I open my good maps navigation, and then turn off when I close navigation. My psuedo code is below.
Profile: Nav On
Open app: Navigation
Enter Task:
IF %GPS ~ off
GPS set On
Go Home
Wait 50 MS
Load App: Navigation
END IF
Exit Task:
GPS set Off

I have been loving the features of the SGS4 - especially gestures. As a result, I have decided to make scripts to allow non-SGS4 phones, using Tasker, to get the same cool benefits. Some of them are pretty darn cool! Anyhow, Ill be posting the scripts as I get them done. You can then import them into your phone, thus giving you the same great fun. If you want to make your own scripts, you are welcome to post them, and share with everyone else.

I am looking for a way to get around using Voicemail from my carrier.Firstly, here we pay for the service as well as retrieval of voice messages.It would be good if i could get tasker to answer a call, play a voice recording or media to the call stream, and then record the response.
Once that part is done then i can do whatever i want with he recording.Also, I am not in the US, so i cant use Google Voice.

I had a tasker profile that switches screen lock off when I'm near my local cell tower.
However I found it would often not be active so today made a profile that will unlock my phone if my home wifi connection is found.
However this works one moment then not at all. It says no active profile despite wifi on and connected.
I have it so that if wifi near = home ssid then unlock phone, and wifi always on (never sleeps) but still nothing.

I want to add my missed events on my lockscreen (calls, sms, whatsapp and email)
Whatsapp is no problem at all. Solved it with Tasker and Minimalistic Text.
Now I am trying to bring in the variable for the missed call to Minimalistic Text from Tasker.
Unfortunately there is no event I can grab to get there.
Is it eventually locked within ics?

I have a Nexus 4 and I want to use the volume rocker as the power button to wake the device when it's in sleep. That's because sometimes the volume rocker is more accessable to me than the wake/sleep button. I know the app for this is tasker. Now here is the basic plan:
If the screen is off + VOLR changes (up or down) >> Screen on.
My problem is with the function that checks if the Volume has changed. I tried several things but nothing worked. Is my idea possible without a rooted device?

I got a pair of LG HBS-730 to input voice commands to my SG-N7100, but it doesn't seem to work. I'm on a stock CM10.1 and grab the input from Autovoice (a nifty Tasker plugin).
Depending on whether I activate Phone, Media or both in the Bluetooth settings of the headset, the input is either solely grabbed from the phone's microphone or is ignored.
I tried BTMono, BT Launch and a few other apps, but it seems to be Android related. [URL] ....
I also tried disabling/renaming VoiceDialer.apk, but it only works with the headset button presses not with the microphone issue.
I'll try anything at this point (including dabbling with Java and Android Intents).
