Disable Keyguard with Tasker - Tasker Tips & Tricks

Hallo everyone,
i have looked over all the threads here but did not find any solution.
My question is: Since SecureSettings (plugin) seems to be not developed anymore i need a new way to completely disable keyguard with Takser and ofc. reset to keyguard it was before.
Example: currenty i have a pattern to unlock. What i want to do: Profil "App X starting" -> Start-Task: completely disable keyguard (no "swipe to unlock", no pattern, no pin, nothing: tapping on power button => screen on with current running app); -> Exit-Task: restore pattern (with the pattern i was using before ofc)
Does any1 know any way how to do this? Currently i am running CM13 Snapshot (Android 6.0.1) on my GT-I9505.
thanks for any helpful answer

You can do that with Secure Settings, or the new AutoTools plugin

No, it did not (at least not for me), i did not even find the "disable keyguard" option like the SecureSettings Pluig-in had it
Still looking for a way to completely disable keyguard on Android 6 (CM13). Not even with my Smartwatch and "Smart Lock" i can REALY disable keyguard, i still have to swipe the Lock-Icon after reaktivating my phone

you can use secure settings on Lollipop and also on MM
try this with Terminal emulator:

Thanks, but i already knew this. The problem is not, secure settings does not find su binary. The problem is, secure settings -> disable keyguard is not working on LP&MM.

I am running Android 6.0.1... I use the Tasker plugin TouchTask (in Google Play) to disable the keyguard. It works perfect for me.

I use a tasker plug in called TouchTask from Google Play. It works perfect for me on Marshmallow. I used the plugin to temporary disable the keyguard in order to allow voice commands when driving.

hi, this is weird!
Maybe I misunderstood something here, but I'm running MM, and Secure setting's disable keyguard runs fine here. I use it to turn off pin keyguard when at home, and turn it back on, with preset pin, when I'm out.
I'm running Tasker with Secure setting on 6.0.1. Also, Secure setting is enabled in Xposed, if it matters.
I don't see any problem so far...
p.s. I just saw another plugin from the same developer, it is called SecureTask, it claims to be able to clear/set pin, password too. Maybe a good solution to finally replace the dated Secure setting?

Like mentioned in my OP (and how it worked on 4.4.4 (CM11):
Profil "App X" => start task: disable keyguard => end task: enable keyguard
i am using unlock pattern usually. what i want is, while "App X" is active/running, keyguard will be set to nothing (not even swipe to unlock!). pressing power (or home button) on my Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505), wich has no fingerprint reader, returns me from black screen (screen off) to the running "App X", i was before pressing power button to screen off. If i stop "App X" the keyguard should be re-set to the unlock pattern.
The SecureSettings plugin did this job on android 4.4.4, but not on 6.0.1 for me

I would recommend Xposed module App Settings, allow your app to show on lockscreen.

The task I use is the follwoing:

A2 Screen Unlock "Using the Plug I have mentioned"
A3, what ever else you want to do with Tasker
Please keep in mind that previously, I have disable the PIN using Tasker and Secure Settings when my cell phone is connected to my car's bluetooth

Keyguard is disabled/not an option in Secure Setting even I enabled legacy features. Did anyone figure it out how to disable keyguard on Marshmallow?

[Q] Lockscreen security toggle?

I'd like to turn the lockscreen security off in areas where I feel secure doing so. When i'm out taking public transportation or any other areas with any risk, i'd like the ability to easily turn security on.
Right now i'm using Xposed Framework with GravityBox 2.6.1. I'd prefer there to be a quick settings toggle that enabled/disabled the lockscreen security but didn't see that option in GravityBox (would request it in the thread for it but it looks like I can't until I post more here?).
Does anyone else have a setup similar to what i'm trying to achieve?
"No Lock Screen" app doesn't seem to work. Currently using "Toggle Lock" which does work as a widget but the size of it is so small at 1x1 (have to resize to enlarge but ends up taking too much space). Also the problem with toggle lock is if you close the Toggle Lock app in the multi-tasking in seems to break this setup.
EDIT: Toggle Lock has issues too after awhile it still asks for unlock randomly when launching apps/notifications
I used Tasker combined with Secure Settings (both on play store) to achieve something similar. When I'm connected to my home wifi, my password is disabled. When I'm connected to no wifi or any other wifi, my password is enabled.
I know this isn't the same as having a single press to toggle the password on and off, but since you can create a tasker task to do this, I imagine it can't be that hard to use Tasker App Factory to make an app that toggles the password on and off. Then just put that app on your home screen and you should be good to go.
Thanks! I'll look into that. The toggle lock app seems to have problems.

Thanks! I tried and it seemed to work great at first (no issues with closing the app by mistake). Then i noticed later on how the phone would be unlocked yet accessing text messages from the notification bar would request the password.
What I ended up doing was setting a shortcut for Nova launcher 'Activities' > 'Settings' > 'Unlock selection' ChooseLockGeneric. This allows me to get to that settings page quickly and directly but I have to manually set up the password each time. Works though!

[Q] How to disable Samsung Fingerprint scanner on home WiFi w/ secure settings

Hi, i'm having problems disabling my fingerprint scanner whenever i'm connected to my home network..
I created new profile > state > net > wifi connected, then I entered my SSID and blah blah, that part works, but when I enter fingerprint lock as entry task (secure settings > custom rom actions > samsung fingerprint lock > disable) it does not work. Can anyone help me ??
Yes this custom rom action "Samsung Fimgerprint Scanner ON & OFF" doesn't work anymore in MM but working fine in LL and KK. I think at the moment, there's no solution yet.

Shame..hope they'll fix it soon
I've been trying to use this today too. Shame it's not working in 6.01. Is there likely to be a fix for it?
You can use the Admin/Password/Disabled to remove the finger lock but can't enable it again.
What I've done for now is create a shortcut on my home screen which opens the settings menu the presses the dpad to go to the fingerprint menu (quick settings at top) and switch on fingerprint lock. Not a great way to do it but it works.
Then use the Admin thingy in tasker to switch it off when I want.

Unfortunately it's pretty unlikely that there ever will be a fix for it, as the developer stopped working on secure settings in early 2015.
Recently there haven't been any updates, nor rumors that he will continue.
It's a little miracle that most of the options are working on Marshmallow.
I'm sorry I have to disappoint you

You can disable Samsung Fingerprint lock when on home WiFi by using Xposed module "No Lock Home".
Disabling it thru Secure Settings plugin is unlikely to be implemented as mentioned in the previous post.

New to Tasker: toggle Mobile Data + GPS on non-rooted device

Hi,
New to Tasker and am absolutely amazed by it's capabilities!
Got a new Galaxy S7, which I am unable to root at this point in time.
I really need a way to toggle Mobile Data and GPS on/off.
Did quite a bit of reading and searching and only found info for rooted devices. Even tried Secure Settings, which of course needs root to toggle them.
Is there ANY way I can toggle mobile data on/off without root???
GPS will be nice as well but less critical.
Will appreciate any help.
Y.
It can be done by using AutoInput but it would require the screen to be on.
I would also appreciate some help on this too, especially the autoinput method. I got parts of it to work, like opening location settings and clicking location on if off. But I'm having trouble creating the task if location is already on. Also, the exit task is giving me fits too because every time the task runs when I open maps, it exits the app to location settings to click the on location, thus activating the exit task before I even get to use the maps haha. It basically goes on a loop for me and can't figure it out. Any help on how to configure this would be appreciated.

Is there a way to turn the screen on with Tasker?
If so, perhaps I can use the combination of Tasker and AutoInput to achieve toggling mobile data on off?
(I found Turn On under Display in Tasker but it has a cross on it so I don't think I can select it. Is there another plugin that will turn the screen on?... that is without root)

Only works if screen lock security is set to none or swipe.

Back to square one.
svampsson... That XML file is only for screen Brightness. I did try tinkering with it to have it work for location Toggle instead but it still gave me trouble. The global action on it would not go back to the app after toggling location on. Any ideas? Thanks for the help tho.
Hi,
I just installed tasker app on my Galaxy S7 Edge.
I tried to create a task to switch on GPS when running Pokemon App and then switch off once app is closed.
Task:
1. Launch App
App Pokemon Go Data %LOC
I run the task, as expected, it opens pokemon go app and 4G(gps) icon appears on the upper-left corner of my phone. But the icon won't disappear when I manually turn off the Location on Quick Settings.
Please help how to restore Location icon on-off.
Thank you

Do you have root? It is very easy to turn high accuracy GPS ON/OFF with Secure settings-plugin. If no root you can do it with Autoinput.

[Q] Auto airplane mode with Nougat (AutoTools or similar)?

Hi,
I noticed it's possible to grant special permissions using ADB to unlock AutoTools Secure Settings (see here).
I saw a demonstration of auto GPS on/off without root and without the "automatic click path" (as we see in Greenify and AutoInput actions), is it possible to have the same behaviour for airplane mode? A simple toast notification instead of the complex path, which needs screen on and unlocked phone.
I hope I've explained well what I want to say.
Look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68495077&postcount=3 No Secure Settings, AutoTools etc.
For me - it works (on Nougat SlimRom 7 on HTC One 7).
It seems it needs root.

Of course... It can't be done without a root.
Unlocking AutoTools Secure Settings through ADB allows users to turn on/off GPS, and GPS can't be switched without root...

Using "Swipe" as the "Screen Lock Type" deletes all fingerprints for app autho!

Using "Swipe" as the "Screen Lock Type" deletes all fingerprints for app autho!
I'm coming from several previous Notes. Most recently the 8. They made a small change to the settings menu. In the 8 the "Biometrics" settings were within the "Lock Screen" menu . Now on the 9 "Biometrics and Security" have their own category. But they have also changed something major it seems...and I hope I'm wrong. When you select "Swipe" as the "Screen Lock Type" it has to "Remove Data" and delete the recorded fingerprint(s). It makes it seem like that if you use them for apps you have to come back and redo the fingerprints for that purpose. But as soon as I do that it automatically switches the lock type back to "Fingerprint". It a vicious cycle.
I have always only used "Swipe" as my unlock method. I have also always liked using finger print for authentication with whatever apps utilize that. I'm pretty bummed right now. Hopefully I'm not the only one with this issue and you guys can dig in and see if I am missing something.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Well, I ended up resorting to using "Swipe" as my unlock method and I just won't be using fingerprint within any of the apps. Pretty disappointing. Unless anyone can come up with a workaround.
seem like there is no options. anyone can help?
I have the same issue and am looking for a remedy. They actually took away the option to have swipe to unlock but keep the biometric data for the Note 9. I use swipe to unlock on my Note 8 and have biometric data for banking apps, etc. But can't do that on the Note 9. This is a definite downgrade and hoping that samsung or someone comes up with a fix for it.

Exactly - you can't use biometrics in other apps unless you have a secure lock actually running on your phone. Want to change it to swipe to unlock? They make you delete all of your biometrics. Frustrating.
I have been looking for a work-around to this issue. Thought maybe a lockscreen app that offered swipe to open would work. Have yet to find one that has the option available though. Plus I don't want to have to deal with another app running on top of everything just to have a swipe to open lockscreen. Hope Samsung fixes this issue soon!

So I installed and....... this worked! Thanks a ton!
I DL'd, installed "no lock". Set it to "Locking Enabled". Went to my lockscreen settings and set my lockscreen to come up immediately upon the display turning off. Hit the power button to get off the AOD and to the lock screen, and lo and behold I am at the swipe to unlock screen just as it used to be on my Note 8. Swipe to unlock works perfectly, and my biometric data is still preserved for my misc apps I use fingerprint to unlock (banking apps, etc).
Again, thanks a TON!

Glad to hear it! :good:
I myself do not use any type of phone lock,but,the locking on a per-app basis makes sense,for whatever app you deem necessary.
The obvious come to mind (Banking/email/messages) so,I definitely see the need.
This may change my mind,as I cannot stand to use a general lockscreen/PIN/pattern/fingerprint/etc..... to wake it up each time I use it.

I also do not use or like a secure lockscreen (pin/pattern/fingerprint/etc) on my lockscreen. But I do like to swipe to unlock only to keep accidental unlocks from happening in pocket, etc. With the swipe to unlock that keeps those accidental unlocks down to basically zero. However, I do utilized secure locking on banking apps, etc. I use these daily, many times a day normally, and would never want them to be able to be accessed by someone who got my phone somehow. So having those securely locked (I use fingerprint with PIN as my backup) is a huge plus for me.
Again, can't thank you enough. This solved a frustrating problem for me and I am sure many others!

Thanks KOLIOSIS for the solution. I used this app during the time there was no "none" option too. The downside is that the CPU will not sleep, thus drain the battery.
I'm willing to explore this further, but I'm stuck.
The basic lock security I have to add in order to register my FP is pattern lock. After that I followed the steps as you stated:
1) Set the No lock app to "lockscreen enabled"
2) Set the "Lock automatically" to "immediately"
Anything else I miss out? Appreciate the help.
Thanks~!

There is an app to monitor this. Can't remember it now.
The CPUs and batteries of todays may not be that affected even if it doesn't sleep.. I'm not sure. I am willing to try this out and see if I'm ok with the batt life.
Could you direct me with the detail steps to get this setup up please?

All I did was download the apk then add my fingerprints. Done. It switches the screen unlock method to "fingerprint, pin" like usual but I guess this app overrides that and allows me to unlock with just a swipe
