The sms app and lock screen - Huawei P9 Questions & Answers

When receiving a sms its will show part of the message on the lock screen. I like privacy so i dont want the part of the message to be displayed, only the sender of the sms. But it looks like there is no middle thing? Its either show the name of sender + part of the message or it hides both the sender and the message. I know Textra has this function and im a big fan of Textra, but some times you want to change things up. So does anyone know if its possible to show only the sender and no message on the lock screen?

I setup a notification via Tasker. It displays %SMSRN on received text event.

[Q] HeadsUp for stock Messaging app on 5.1.1?

Hi everyone! I've recently bought Xperia Z3C (had Xperia T for 2,5 year) and I literally LOVE this phone! It's fast, has excellent battery life even on Lollipop... blah blah, nice phone but to the point:
I've noticed there's no HeadsUp notification for Sony's stock messaging app, the message is received, notification sound played, icon pops up on status bar but absolutely no HeadsUp! Any different messaging app (Google Messenger, Textra etc.) works like a charm but I want to use Sony app, not 3rd party. Do you have this issue too? Any solutions for this one?
Thanks in advance!

Switch Between Recent Apps By Holding Home Button

Hi,
I'm looking for a way to do task which switches between 2 last used apps.
This function is implemented in CM (I had it in Samsung Galaxy S Advance on CM11).
For example: I'm browsing Internet via Chrome and I got sms. I open that message from notification panel and response. Now I can return to Chrome when I long press captive settings button (it opens recent apps menu) and choose Chrome.
I want to do this by long pressing home button (it is configurable and it can use Tasker).
Any ideas?

It is not a tasker solution, but take a look at GMD Gesture Control app in Play Store - it is simply brilliant for app-changing purpose (and much more). Just assign an action (for example previous app) to gesture (for example 2-finger swipe to right)
Can't live without it...

I would like to avoid installing new app if it's possible. I used to use Xposed module with gestures but I'm curious if it's possible to do this as a task.

I not sure how to do this in Tasker. You might have to consider using an app. The best app to accomplish this would be LAS: Last App Switcher. This should do exactly what you're looking for.

Thanks, it's not working perfectly but it has shortcut which I have looked for

Thanks, Im looking app like this much times !
If you set Tasker as your default "Assist & voice input" app, then set "Assistance Request" as a context, you can run whatever you want as a response to a long-press of the home button. If you install an app like Last App Switcher, then you can launch that as a shortcut via a home button press. Hope that helps!

I don't know if it is a bug or some mistake made by myself, but when I try to add a contact to the home screen, 2 options appear: view contact and direct call.

I've no contacts app but miui, how can I solve it? I thanks in advance

Show tasker scene in recent apps list

Hello all,
i made a Geocaching scene with tasker and would like to switch between that scene and another APP... But when i press the home button, the scene disappears. Other apps still remain in the recent apps list. Is there a way to have the scene in that list so i can switch it with another APP.
Thanks!
A scene isn't an app so it can't be shown in the Recent apps list. It's just overlay.
Your best option is probably to either create a shortcut to the task and place it on your home screen, use AutoNotification to create a notification that shows the scene when clicked on, or to use the Autobubbles alpha app to use a bubble as a shortcut.

You need to setup a profile that reacts to when you click on the notification.
Here's a tutorial made by the developer that explains it further :-}
