I love tasker but since I got the nexus 6 I haven't been able to use it because it simply refuses to turn bluetooth off. It will turn it on, but not off... Anyone know how I can fix this?

You can DL the profile from that link. Put in SD/tasker/profiles folder. Then you can import that into tasker...

hello, just wondering if anyone manage to work the tethering? I tried the foxfi app but no luck, even the es file manager app under net manager option didn't work, haay

Foxfi works fine for me. When you get the pop up telling you to contact att press the home button instead of tapping ok. The hot spot stays active this way

It stays active but did you actually connect to it and surf the Internet?

Foxfi doesn't work on and it connects but surfing the Internet is a no go we need an alternative.

Yea with a grandfathered unlimited plan so an actual tethering plan from at&t isn't offered to me. I'd be more than happy to pay the small fee if it were even offered though...

Yesterday I tried feverishly to get foxfi to work with no luck even doing it exactly as op had done. So now I see this thread and figure okay ill try again.... and guess what.... it worked... The only thing I can think of that I didn't do yesterday is I rebooted the phone this morning. ..

I use EasyTether and it works great for my needs.
You have to enable USB Debugging mode in order for it to work. I had a heck of a time finding it, so here is a quick howto...
From home, press "Apps" menu, press "Settings", press "General" tab, press "About Device", press "Build number" seven consecutive times and you should get messages about having "Developer Mode" being turned on. That's it!
Hit back and you should now see a new "Developer options" selection in the menu. Press "Developer options" and just check mark "USB debugging" if you want to enable it.
Does EasyTether support wi-fi tethering or mobile hotspot?
$.01 via NOTE 3

No, only USB and Bluetooth... I haven't found a non-root solution for WiFi yet.
You can Bluetooth tether it to another android device/tablet...
FWIW, Foxfi is working on my AT&T GN3. As others have said, just hit the home button when the popup appears. Also, I've noticed when connecting with my laptop, full internet isn't available for the first 30 seconds or so, so just give it time...
Subscribed for Samsung Wifi HotSpot Option = )
yep confirmed working with foxfi, the thing is I always need to setup the password everytime I activate the foxfi to work the secured wpa2

Confirmed working with FoxFi without issues with password with everything saving.

Do you need root to use Foxfi for tethering? This is to use the note 3 as a hotspot right?....meaning that I am connecting my other tablets to the note 3 and using its lte data?

Did you guys try any tethering widget?? for AT&T Galaxy S4 wifi tethering doesn't work directly but if you install any tethering app it will work.
Here is the one I've tried from Play store and its free.
'Tethering Widget' by HI-DEVELOP
Install the app and look for 'Tethering (full)' .
once you add this widget click thering widget(make sure you click the Wifi icon not the USB icon'.
This should enable wifi tethering.
Let me know if it works or not..
Now that we have root, can we just freeze tetheringProvsion under titanium backup & use the native app?
Can someone familiar with Tasker take a look at the attached picture and see what's wrong with my settings?
So I wanna make a profile which turns off mobile data when screen off, then wait ten mins and enable data for 30 secs and then turn data off again. This should repeat forever when my screen is off. Thanks to anyone that helps
I'm using Event - Display Off as a profile. (Highest priority)

What is the problem? Check logcat? 30secs. Mobile on seems like a short time? If its counting from on (and not conected?)
PS. Dont know tasker..

The problem is that my 3G doesn't turn off after it has completed all the tasks from the picture (except the last "mobile data off" setting). I got what I wanted by using 3G Manager PRO, but wanted to do it all in one app as I have some other Tasker profiles.
Oh well. Guess I'll just settle with having one more process eating up my RAM

I know that installing custom-ROM (ie. null) enables bluetooth tether.
But for some reason, I prefer to stay in stock-ROM and I want to use bluetooth tether by modding system(or...3rd-party app?).
Q. How can I enable bluetooth tether on stock-ROM(rooted)?
(Kernel? Binary? Library? Framework?)

You need to add the Bluetooth internet profile
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
So...How can I add it?
I'm using Google Nexus 5 and I don't have any tethering restriction on phone.
Adding full-settings app on system app doesn't work. It show the checkbox for bluetooth internet, but its not working.

Hey all,
Anyone else not able to get Call Recording to work on Wanam?
I've toggled all the settings and no go.
Am I the only one or am I potentially missing something?
Thanks,

On older Samsung phones, the only way I've ever gotten it to work is on roms that had it baked in. Even then, it didn't always work.

You can use Callrecorder from the playstore. It's a paid app but works well with our phone.

You don't use task managers in Android.
Just my point of view:

You don't need a task manager. The phone has enough ram and if you really must need a app to hibernate, look into using the greenify app.

I can confirm these results. I uninstalled the app and just use mobile site. Try Greenify, it will work for this issue too.

Says the guy wanting to use task managers. Seriously, if the app is the issue why would you hunt for a work around? Get rid of the problem don't hide it.

I believe there is more to this than some of you are recognizing. I have a question. Go look in your battery menu and look at the apps using the most battery. Does it show each app keeping the mobile radio active? If so because i'm reading on reddit along with my personal experience. Google Play Store, Google Play Services, Facebook, Chrome, Play Music are doing that. No one seems to know why yet either. Tell me what you find out.

Well its pretty obvious for me. Ive never seen these apps really sot at the top other than google play services for a gps wakelock. But these apps are inconsistently at the top but when they are, they keep the mobile radio active for hours when screen on time might be a 1/4 of that.
Well then. Try app called Battery Doctor. It will let you see what's draining your battery and let you selectively close the ones you want to.
