Hello,
I'm looking for software which will be able to automatically turn off my ringtones and switch to silent or vibration mode during the night (example 10 pa -6 am), and than switch to normal mode (6am-10pm)
Create a calendar appt that lasts for the duration of when you want your phone to be silent and then set the profile to "automatic". That will automatically switch to "vibrate only" for all sounds during the appt. Make the appt recur everyday and it's probably best not to have a reminder pop up for it, unless you have trouble knowing when it's time to go to sleep.
O.O.
G-Profile is what u want.

I use PhoneWeaver.
SPB Phone Suite (commercial) or PocketZenPhone (http://www.pocketzenphone.net/PZPForum/index.php). G-profile and Phoneweaver are buggy for me.
PhoneAlarm is the best
I use CT Scheduler (not free). It features many other things, and it great!
Hey everyone. Anyone here use Tasker or any similar app. If so so what are your favorite profiles or things to do with them?

I'm a long time Tasker user and cannot think using any device without it.
The main thing I use it for are:
- automatic change of audio volumes based on time and location;
- hourly chime;
- missed notifications reminder;
- automatic switch GPS ON/OFF when using maps;
... Other little things depending on specific ROM I'm using ...
Macro droid is pretty good, A tad easier to setup tasks
For me, Tasker knocked me down. I use Automateit Pro, a little bit more user friendly and does the job accurately.

I am using macro droid. Its really smooth and user friendly. Not as versatile as Tasker may be but it almost serves all the needs with more macros. It was my first purchase from google play.
Only use it to turn volume down when I arrive at the office.
Tasker and Secure Settings. I use it to:
1) Set ringtone to vibrate between 11pm to 6am
2) Trigger high accuracy GPS when I open waze.
3) Auto rotate only when in the camera, gallery, youtube and a few others.
4) Switch between edge and HSPA (to save battery) i.e. only swtich to hspa when youtube, web browser or app that needs a fast data connection is active.
5) Send emergency SMS to certain people when battery reaches to 10% (hardly ever happens but hey safe than sorry)
6) Switch to car mode (app) when connected to my bluetooth headset.
7) Open up emulator when game controller is connected.
8) When within range of my home town cell tower, switch on wifi, similarly when out of range of the tower, wait 2 mins then switch off wifi.

Do any of these require root?
I can't recall but I think secure settings requires root, someone correct me if I'm wrong. Most of them don't. Secure settings trigger different gps modes.
Ok cool thank you
Llama - is similar, as some alright features
I personally went for tasker and added secure settings
After 3 failed unlocks, takes picture on front cam and logs location
when face down, set phone to silent
when near home or work turn wifi on
when at home and connected to wifi, turn lock off
when connected to bluetooth in car turn lock off
on boot set lock to on
similar to others... other additions:
> read SMS sender and text contents while connected to car bluetooth [developing] (anyone know the right audio channel to play notifications through?)
> shake vertically to lock device (too big to always reach power button)
and per someone's earlier question yes you need root for secure settings to do most of its worthwhile tasker actions. although my secure settings is not working for enabling/disabling pattern unlock in 5.0 [liquidsmooth v4.0 unofficial]
I mainly use it to control the lights at home. I haven't been able to think of any other use cases for me

want to share this? looks a bit nifty
Below are the Tasker Profiles that I use:
1. Turn Wifi On when I'm connected to a cell tower near home. Turn off when I exit.
2. Notify to take my ID card when disconnected from wifi (reminds me in the elevator)
3. Turn on silent mode when I'm connected to a cell tower near office.
4. Switch to 2G when screen is off.
5. Turn on location for Maps, Uber, etc. Turn off when not using.
6. Increase the display timeout when using Feedly, Facebook, Play Store, etc. Change it back to 15 secs when not using.

Superquick:
New Profile "Shake it off" > Event > Shake Backwards & Forwards > Sensitivity = High, Duration = Medium > New Task "LockSystem" > If %SCREEN ~ on > System Lock
Note the "IF Screen ~ ON" otherwise while your phone is in your pocket it will keep locking which is not a problem untill you try to run with your phone playing music and you get the lock sound effect every step you take
The "Shake Backwards-Forwards" is not intuitive but the shake actions are sort of misnamed in tasker. This locks the phone if you shake it up and down vertically [insert masturbation gesture here].
The medium duration is also key so you get the right kind of threshold for not having the screen go off while you ride the bus but also not having to shake it for a while.

Tasker with OnePlus One
Hello,
I am using Tasker with some of the following tasks/settings...
Sound and Timeout profiles for Home, Out, Work and Night situations.
Toggle between different screens in Lightning launcher for Home, Out, Work or Night situations.
They than look similar to the Smart Screen Launcher screens.
Capturing notifications and displaying them in situations when I want them to appear, including sound and/or vibration.
Retrieving Sunrise/Sunset times and weather information, displaying the info via Zooper Widget.
Setting different wallpapers according the time and location during the day.
Adding the current location to for instance Evernote (like the app Where Am I).
A working time registration including reporting worked hours.
-Tasker
-Lightning Launcher
-Zooper Widgets
-AutoNotification (plugin for tasker)
-AutoLocation (plugin for tasker)
-AutoLaunch (plugin for tasker)
-Email Me (plugin for tasker)
There is so much you can do with tasker

Hey guys,
I don't own a Motorola device running Lollipop, but I'm curious as to how Moto Assist handles the Priority Mode in Lollipop.
If I'm not mistaken, in KitKat, Assist's 'Sleep Mode' will switch the phone into Silent Mode, depending on the time you've set. Also, you get the option for certain contacts to be able to get to you while the Sleep Mode is on (with the choice of None, Starred Contacts, Everyone in your phone book). I can't remember if there's the option to let Messages from the white-listed contacts to ring during Sleep Mode period, or even an auto-reply for all calls/text rejected during Sleep Mode.
I'm curious… how does Moto Assist handle this Priority Mode/None/All found in Lollipop?
If I'm not mistaken, if you've set Sleep Mode in Assist, it will turn on Priority Mode. Are you limited to the same options, as to how Contacts white-listing are handled (choice of None, Starred and Everyone?). Does Assist offer a more granular control or finer tuning in comparison to the native Interruption settings? Is Assist not a replacement for the native Priority Mode, and it only acts as something that turns on Priority Mode (separate from the native Downtime setting)
Setting up Meeting Mode, will also turn on Priority Mode. Is the Auto-Reply feature still there? Same with the above point on whitelisting contacts/notification types.
Is this conflicting with Android's own/built-in settings in Settings > Sounds and notifications > Interruption. Particularly the type of notifications that are let through (Calls, Messages, Alarms), and which contacts are being let through? (None, Starred Contacts Only, Everyone)
I guess if you can upload screenshots/video how Assist looks in L, that would help answer some of the questions I have!
Thanks!
OK, sleep is the same as no calls (although, I seem to remember it will ring if a favourite calls you more than once in quick succession).
Meeting is none or favourites for auto reply.
Is it conflicting? No. Works fine.
I use Tasker with Kitkat 4.4.4 on my Z3C. I have some tasks to enable/disable Wifi when in or out of range. But Tasker doesn't switch Wifi on or off everytime. Sometimes it seems that Tasker skips one action in task. I've appended two screenshots from simple task and running log. At time the task was executed, Wifi was off already, but Tasker doesn't switch it on (a note: on screenshots Wifi is enabled, but on execution is was off). But why? Also, there is a task to switch off Wifi and Tasker also skips this action in task sometimes. I haven't found a reason why action is skipped sometimes and sometimes it's executed. This is really, really annoying.
Can anyone help?
I've capsuled Wifi On/Off into separate tasks now and call these tasks from main task, now it seems that Wifi switch does work. I'll have a look at this, but it is mysterious nevertheless.
So I tried making a profile on my new S7E where if the battery goes to 20%-5%, then Tasker would
1) Enable Power Saving mode
2) Disable Keyboard Sounds (using Samsung Keyboard) since normal power saving does not do this
3) Turn Auto Brightness off and turn the brightness to 0
And if the battery goes to 5%-0% it would enable the Ultra Power Saving mode
But here's the tricky part: If I am charging the phone I want tasker to disable said tasks. I did manage to make the profiles but I could not link them so that they would disable as soon as I put the phone to a charger.
Also is there a way to enable Always on Display and set brightness to max (the latter I know how to do) while charging?
Thanks in advance!
Create another profile and trigger it with the power-charger. This profile disables the other profiles you've created. The exit task would be enabling the other tasks again.
When I create another profile it only allows me to link it with tasks. How do I link it to the profile?

Tasker -> profile state (set to on/off)
How are you controlling the AOD and power savings from tasker?
