Modified the Harmony app a bit to use it on the Gear. It's just a temporary quick and dirty hack to allow the remote app to bypass the wifi detection when it starts up. Hope to work on it a bit more in the future, but for now it will do for others to experiment with it
A working bluetooth tethering connection is required!
1. To connect launch the app. The following screen will be displayed
hit the question mark in the upper right corner.
2. The following screen will appear
Select Advanced Scan
3. This will get you to the advanced scan screen. Here you should select Enter IP Address Manually and enter the IP address of your Harmony Hub. (To find the IP address look under Info in the general menu of the app on your phone or check your router page)
Again, this is just a experimental quick and dirty mod. Primarily for experimenting with such a use case. I encourage others to decompile the app and do some additional smali editing if you want to make it work the way you want. (Because of time constraints I can't promise that I will do some extra work on this)
I already contacted Logitech and asked them if they want to make the app work with bluetooth tethering scenarios. Let's hope they will update the app soon. Because really, with the Logitech hub you can control your complete Home Theater System with your watch. (Yep... no more searching for the remote
This is a mod of https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.logitech.harmonyhub

What would it take to get the Harmony smart control to work with something like Tasker? I'd kill to be able to have my home theater system, lets say, turn on when I walk in the door.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using XDA Free mobile app

This is hilarious, Nice share.. How did I just notice this tho ?
I may have to give it a try !

Does this work with Tizen?

PERFECT!...but...
This would be AMAZING on the Tizen Gear but it seems it is only for Android. Hopefully when they port Android Wear to the Gear it will work. Keep up the good work Dev. Thanks.

Any plans on updating? Currently force closes on Android Wear Lollipop

Kaiser Options

Hey fellow Kaiser users,
I'm currently using the Tilt, with Dutty's touchflo rom. I have a few things that I was wondering whether or not can be done within the device. Can these be done? If so, how?
1. Setting TCPMP as default player within the HTC Home Plugin to be able to control the next and previous options from the home screen (assuming just using it for audio purposes) or use a skin on top of TCPMP that looks similar to that of HTC Audio Manager
2. Set S2U2 to startup with device so that you don't have to select it in order for it to run. If this is not possible, is there a way to change the items included in the quick launcher, so that S2U2 or some other program can replace some items included in the launcher?
That's all I can come up with right now, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Oh and by the way, Dutty, your custom ROM is awesome, glad I found it.
I can't help you with TCPMP but if you use a program like Battery status it will give you the ability to set up a tray launcher which will allow you to set up s2u2 there which is what I do along with some other apps. Heres a picture of it in the middle it gives you meters you can set up at the bottom is the tray launch.

For tcpmp, to set it as default, go to options>settings> slect page>file association> check all that you need. Exit the program. Reset the device. and you should be good to go.
I've set all the file associations within TCPMP, but this doesn't set it within the HTC Homepage Plugin and allow you to control it from the homepage. If I could get this to work, it would be awesome, but it may not be possible. If that's the case I guess I'll just have to use TCPMP's not-very-aesthetically pleasing interface. . But I can deal with it, it works, so I guess that's good enough.
The HTC Home plugin only works with Windows Media Player or HTC Audio Manager.
S2U2 loads up fine for me after a soft reset. It can be selected to be used in the Home Plugin in the normal way or assigned to a hardware button or soft key.
For some reason mine doesn't automatically load after a soft reset, I have to either launch the configuration tool or the application itself in order to use it. Does anyone happen to know if there is a way to, or exist a theme similar to the appearance of the HTC Audio Manager?
Thanks for all your help everyone!

You should be able to set it to come on by defult with "S2U2 Setting" (most likely found in your "system Tools" folder). Make sure you have the faollowing set to ON:
-Start on wake up
-Start on backlit off
then click:
-Save
-Yes
That should do it.

Best Tasker Plugins

Push Tasker
Push Tasker is a plugin for the app Pushbullet. Pushbullet is an amazing app with all kinds of capabilities to send information from one device to another. I personally use it to setup custom notifications for updates on specific websites. there are some great instructional videos to help you get started with Push Tasker.
With Push Tasker, you can have Tasker send notes, links, and lists automatically. It can also intercept notifications or reply on its own. If you're already using both of these apps then you'll love the idea of combining the two of them. Check out this video to see how it work.

AutoLocation
AutoLocation will let you set custom Geofences. A Geofence is a location on the map that you will be able to define by giving it an exact radius. You can then have tasker react when you're within your defined location.
This is a perfect way for me to keep track of all the restraining orders that people have on me. I'll just get a notification every time I'm getting to close to someone's house. Keeps me of trouble and out of jail!
Download AutoLocation
AutoWear
If you have a smartwatch you'll love the ability to trigger tasks based on the activity of your Android Wear device. The video below shows a bunch of really cool example of how you can use this plugin.
Download AutoWear
So what are your favorite tasker plugins? Let me know in the comments!
Thanks a lot for sharing such an useful post. All of these apps are really useful.
Besides the AutoApps plugins by joaomgcd, there are some excellent newer plugins called Snackbar Tasker Plugin and Material Design Tasker Plugin made by Nick Nack Development that allow you to easily create interactable Material Design scenes. Beats using the stock scene editor!
BaldApps plugins are the best IMHO
AutoRemote is by far the best plugin in my experience, we've been using it for years. It solves the cross-Google account issue with PushBullet, so I can send things to my wife, son, parents etc. PushBullet is frustratingly limited to one Google account.
The number two slot is mentioned above (AutoWear), before that was AutoPebble. AutoNotification is very useful, as is AutoTools for the What3Words API.
We've stopped buying the Auto apps and started subscribing as it's ridiculously better value for money.
All the AutoApps (including the alpha ones) are almost a requisite at this point. As "FourQ" mentioned - the subscription is the ultimate deal, for about a dollar a month you get every single AutoApp plugin, (including the alpha ones). It's a total of like 30 plugins.
Also the Snackbar and Material Design plugins (by Nick Nack Development) are great for so many things, whether taking input or displaying data, in a look/feel of complete Material Design, without ever having to setup or mess around with using a Scene.
Join from JoaoApps is a new one, and basically is a full replacement for PushBullet. It integrates with Tasker too of course, but in a way that's also far beyond what Pushbullet does. There's no monthly fee for using Join, just a one time purchase.
Two brand new recent releases that are extremely helpful in dealing with data storage for Tasker are the Spreadsheet Tasker Plugin and the Tasker SQLite Plugin. The first can upload/download data directly to/from Google Sheets. The second can store/retrieve/administrate SQLite databases on the device using Tasker and without using root (in regards to databases you create). So amazing what folks have come up with lately.
Others I use include On Time which lets Tasker designate groups of quick launch icons in homescreen widgets, as well as the plugin KC Tasker Processes which lets you know if an application is running in the background.
Secure Settings still has its uses, however plugin Media Utilities seems to have not been updated in a long time and may be abandoned.

[Q] Split screen enabling on mi max 2

Hi, everyone. There was already a thread like this, but it's locked, and all the links have been removed, so I have to open a new one. I live in China, currently. I'm on the stock rom, unrooted, chinese one, and even though I've done a basic research, I can't succeed to enable this option on my phone. it's miui8.5, nougat 7.1.1, there are no Developer options in my Additional settings (or anywhere, cross my heart), and, as far as the Button Mapper app is concerned, I have no use of that, as I can't add Paypal to my Google play account, because it's registered in China (paypal), I use vpn (in order to be able to approach google at all), so the country of my order differs from the country my Paypal registration (because of vpn servers), and there's always an error, saying that. Of course, if I turn off my vpn, I won't be able to approach to playstore at all. And I need Button Mapper Pro in order to enable this, so that means - inapp purchase, which I can't do. So, my question is - is there another way (other than google play store) to buy Button Mapper Pro with Paypal, or, is there a way to set this without button mapper app (I don't want to root the phone, installed everythng I need on it, works fine in English with google play services)? Thank you
nevermind, I found the solution. thanks anyways, cheers

Split screen comes with MIUI 9, but thanks for sharing the solution with us...
Well, considering that no one ever replied, I thought it was some basic problem and everyone knows how to solve it, which is why no one wanted to bother to reply. That was my conclusion. If still interested, here's how - go to settings, option About phone, find MIUI section, and tap few times on MIUI version, that's how you unlock Developer options in Additional settings. Than, go to Additional Settings, Developer Options, scroll to the option Force activities to be resizable, and switch it ON. After that, go to Google Play Store, download the app Button Mapper, you don't have to pay for Pro, just download the basic one. Install it, and give necessary accessibility to the app (you will be prompted for that). Than go to the app menu, click on Home button, enable Customize option, then scroll down to Long press option, press it, and on it's option choose Split screen. And that's it, The middle button of your phone (3 buttons on the bottom of the screen) will now make the app you're using customizable size, you just enter the app first, than long press that button, go up with your finger without lifting it away from the screen, and that's how you choose the size of the first app on your screen. The second one you open will take the rest of the screen's space

sorry, I tried posting a screenshot of my phone's home screen, to show how that looks like practically, but it doesn't allow me too

			
				
Does the splitscreen works the same as in MIUI 9 ? l like the stock factory version which was the v8.5.5.0 but sadly there's no splitscreen support. Updated to the latest v9.2.1.0 but I'm disappointed with the battery life...if the splitscreen works the same as in the MIUI 9, I'm gonna downgrade back to v8.5.5.0 and apply the steps you mentioned above.

VPN "always-on" with tasker most networks

In miui / android it seems that at least for my device/software version configuration it's not possible to set the build in function for vpn to "always-on" while on 3rd party app's there's such an option (which is depending on a use case i would say)
i have been browsing through the web to compose a tasker task to activate the VPN option on all (or all except home) networks and could not figure out to get it working.
most people seem to be using either
- tasker send intent function
- or similar attempts with shell am start (some intent formular)
- load application function
- tasker plugins (i would appreciate not using third party plugins)
however it seemed like whatever i tried, the option never triggered.
So inside Settings > VPN
i have setup the integrated VPN called Fritz (which is working manually obviously)
as well as another APP which has VPN Capabilities but is not the case to use...
In my Screenshot here, you can find the Setting which needs to be enabled / what i want to get done with tasker

Detail Page of Build in VPN (you can see there's no always on Option)
The other App listed there has other options which give settings like "always-on", "block connection without vpn" as seen here:
Anyone has enough experience to help me out?
Looking around a bit, I think you are using the MyFRITZ!App to connect to a FRITZ!Box. Do I have that right?
I'm guessing that most of what your finding related to tasker and VPN is OpenVPN configurations. OpenVPN is programmed with Tasker integration in mind. Through tasker plugins, or by sending intents, it's possible to control OpenVPN.
I'm not finding similar integration for the MyFRITZ!App. The answer may be that you need to automate touches with AutoInput. Another option is to contact the developers of MyFRITZ!App and request intents to command the connection/disconnection which tasker could then use.
That's not the case here.
Yes myfritz app has vpn connectivity and it's properly set up, however I have also set up another vpn with the built-in vpn functions from Android. On miui this can be found on settings > Vpn .... Regardless of the myfritz app.
To demonstrate, I have uninstalled myfritz.
As seen in my screenshot the built-in settings are still available.
On miui the settings package seems to be available on android.net.vpn.settings which seems to be used in tasker with intents for other vpn clients such as vpncilla.
However it's not clear how tasker could access the toggle switch by intent.
I have no tasker plugin yet so if I had the choice I would want to get it done by intent or shell.
Gesendet von meinem MI 9 mit Tapatalk
I think the only solution is a possible work around using openVPN to access your VPN provider's servers. Then you can use an intent or plugin to manage OpenVPN.
Tasker can't manage what it doesn't have access to.
