This guide is for those who want to use this mode other than the battery reaching 20%
or want to automate this mode when screen is off as in this simple example where after 40 mins the mode will be activated
There are screenshots in post #2 step by step
First u need sense 6 rom and of cos u need to be rooted
U need "Llama" and "Secure settings" both being free apps from playstore
i am using Llama as its easier to use
Steps
1) Just open llama , new event
2) add condition as screen off ( with delayed event 40 mins) , choose action , local plugin, secure settings , options , launch activity , power , choose app first, then choose from dropdown list [Power].extremepowersaver.Extremepowersaveractivityconfirm ( if u can see the words being too long just tilt and use landscape mode)
Save yr llama event. thats it.
Edit: macrodroid is better to use than llama as it does it not do cell polling And can use shake device feature Just follow the same steps
Here are the steps
When I try to test the action I get a message saying that secure settings does not have permission. I'm also not rooted

Thanks for the post, it really helps me in Tasker, but I need to put an Exit task to do the opposite; i.e. to close the Power Saver mode?

Unfortunately I haven't figured out how to do this. Try using the application state

Check the files in here system\usr\keylayout\
Here are the files that control the G button (key 95). Depending on the you are using, it is one file or another...

I think the problem is you can only map the G-button to default keys in android, like keys on keyboard (A-Z, space, enter...) and a few other function keys (power, volume...), to toggle airplane mode you probably need to create a app to do it.
Heuxxx remaped this button to turn on camera. Camera is an app. So I have found app to turn on and turn off airplane mode.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.oxdb.Airplane
Here I have Huexxx zip file. And I know that I need to put file there /system/usr/keylayout
http://d-h.st/za3
But how change this file to run my app ?
The difference is : Camera is one of the function key I mentioned above (because obviously some android phone does have a camera button)
the modification in keylayout file does not make it call specific app, it only activate camera button function in android, i.e. open default camera app and take pictures.

I fear so. Maybe try 'key 95 VOLUME_MUTE', sure that is not airplane mode and I don't even know if it works.
In this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1826777 we can do that (Press G to open an app). Hope this can help
PS: Download ver4.2.1. It's the most stable ones
So... I´m not a great fan of doing things manually if I don´t have to so the manual toggling of the BT Tether doesn´t do it for me...
So I worked myself to a automatic sollution based on Tasker and Bluetooth Auto Connect
Tasker is available as a free 7-day trial here if you wan´t to try it out before you buy, Bluetooth Auto Connect is all free.
Works like this: If Display is turned on, the Gear waits 20sec (longer than the regular Display timeout), if display is still on after thoose 20sec it turns the BT Tether On and sets the Display timeout to 1 min instead (Optional). When the display turns off again, it waits 1 min, if display is still off, it shuts the Tether Off aswell and returns the display timeout to 15sec again.
So here goes:
1. Download both apps and install on Gear (you should know how it´s made by now) You shouldnt need to do anything with BT Auto Connect, we will trigger it from within Tasker.
2.Start Tasker and select New Profile. Set name to "BT Tether On", choose Event, Display and finally Display On.
3. Create a Task to be triggered by the Profile and set it like this:
Code:
1. Wait 20 seconds
2. If %SCREEN ~ On
3. Bluetooth Auto Connect (Found under Plugins, then click on the Config button, then click Profiles and tick Networking (PAN), go back and click on Devices, click on your device and tick the Networking (PAN) here aswell, back again and click Profile Action, choose Connect)
4. Display timeout 1min (optional)
5. Variable Set %BTtether To On
6. End If
3. Save the Task and back out to Tasker´s Main screen.
4. Create new profile. Set name to "BT Tether Off", choose Event, Display and finally Display Off.
5. Create a Task to be triggered by the Profile and set it like this:
Code:
1. If %BTtether ~On
2. Wait 1 Minute
3. If %SCREEN ~Off
4. Bluetooth Auto Connect (Found under Plugins, then click on the Config button, then click Profiles and tick Networking (PAN), go back and click on Devices, click on your device and tick the Networking (PAN) here aswell, back again and click Profile Action, choose Disconnect)
5. Display Timeout 15 Seconds (optional)
6. Variable Set %BTtether To Off
7. End If
8. End If
That´s about it!
Have only tested this a couple of hours so there might be Bugs in the "code" but have it a try and report back to me if something feels weird.
Happy Tasking!

Downlod premade profiles here:

After importing, remember to enter the Task and click on Bluetooth Auto Connect and select your BT device in the list.

Nice and simple I like the screen on trigger
That reminds me, should update my thread that has Bluetooth auto tether. Been too busy with trying to get GM on my
nexus amongst other things.

It´s not necessary but as youre forced to have a null_ rom to achieve Bluetooth tether then you´we got root no mather what..
Ok got it. So I really need to root and flash null rom. Cannot use stock.

Personally I dont like screen on events.. I prefer to assign the task to a gesture.
Although the screen timeout modification & screen off events are excellent.
Good job on the write up..

I don´t really know yet if I like it either, but you have to try it to find out
I may assign the On feature to a button/widget by Tasker and let the Off feature be like above.
We´ll see...
thanks
nice job brother, and thanks for the pm
I've been battling with this for a while, and in the end it was so simple

I´ll break the code down for you with comments:
Code:
1. If %BTtether ~On //Checks IF the Variable BTtether is set to on, If it is, the Tasks below continues, else task is aborted.
2. Wait 1 Minute //Pretty selfexplained.
3. If %SCREEN ~Off //IF Display is still Off after 1 min, the task below continues, else task is aborted
4. Bluetooth Auto Connect //Disconnects the BT Tether
5. Display Timeout 15 Seconds (optional) //Sets new Display Timeout
6. Variable Set %BTtether To Off //Sets BTtether to Off so Tasker knows the state of the BT Tether.
7. End If //Ends "If %SCREEN ~Off "
8. End If // Ends "If %BTtether ~On"
Since we got two If expressions in the code, we need to have two End If´s to decides where thoose IF´s ends.
Seem a little clearer?
In regular programming you have to specify all IF expressions with a start and an end, may look different from language to language though.
Maybe Tasker doesn´t need the End IF if it´s in the End of the code but I want the code to look clean and OK so I put it there to make it right.

Rightclick -> Save as
You need to change pretences in tasker on gear to not be beginner mode
Then you can long press certain areas and select import (check tasker website for better details)
So far this is really my only tasker profile im using and it works great...just wanna thank you again...works so good

Hi guys this is my first post on XDA. I'm currently testing new apps, and I recently encountered a situation in my OPO with the airdroid.
I don't know if it's normal, but in Airdroid 2.1.0 whenever I log out the application, the process is still running in the background. How can I turn off that process without need to go to the Definitions > applications > In execution and stop it from there .
With Best regards
Have you taken a look in options to see if the appropriate options are checked.
I believe it runs in the background because push service a s push mirror to work
lol go back to app and press back button it will say exit say yes and its done

when i leave app and go to home , app close and i wont get any notifications, for example when i chat in telegram, i press home button to switch to other app and when i do that, telegram close and i don't get any notification until i open that again, another example: im talkin in whats app (voice call) and when i press home button, call aborts
also i've checked "don't keep activities" but its off

Hi all,
New to tasker and completely lost. So any help is greatly appreciated.
Due to work requirements I will have to lose root on my Oneplus 8 pro and revert to complete stock.
One of the main things i don't want to be without is the ability to long press the back button to kill the current app I'm on.
Can anyone help me in achieving this via tasker without root? Thanks
