[Help] Changing screen timeout while WhatsApp running - Tasker Tips & Tricks

Hey everyone and thanks for taking the time to read this.
I wanted to make so when i'm using whatsapp the screen timeout of my phone changes to 2 minutes instead of my usual 30 seconds.
It looked like it was working but one time I noticed the screen went off after the 30 seconds, so i pulled down my notification bar and checked it.. It was infact set at 30 and not 2 minutes
I noticed that the 2 minutes always work in the whatsapp homepage but they get resetted to 30seconds whenever I enter a chat and send a message. If then I go back to the homepage of the app they get switched again to 2 minutes
What I did to setup the profile is:
1. Create new application profile and select WhatsApp
2. Add a task that makes the screen timeout change to 2 minutes
3. Uncheck restore settings on the advice of another user
Trying to "debug" the problem I even added an exit task which set the timeout back to 30 seconds but that didn't seem to change anything
If anyone could help me out that would be greatly appreciated
Edit: I'll be more specific the timeout becomes 30 second whenever I tap to type and the keyboard opens, whenever I tap away it goes back to 2 minutes. Is there anyway to prevent that from happening beside using the the same settings for the keyboard?

Quick fix
After time out add another action
Add -> Input -> Soft Keyboard.
It works that way I tried it with soft keyboard and without soft keyboard.

Hey and thanks for your answer!
It actually did not work for me
my device is a5 2016 running nougat
I did find a workaround for now that i might or might not keep it.
What i did was:
1. Create new app profile for gBoard
2. Set screen timeout at 2 mins if PACTIVE *,whatsapp,*
It seems to work for now even though It's not the best style and it does take two profiles instead of one, I'm very open to try and fix it the way you suggest if we manage to make it work
Thanks for taking the time to help me!

That's strange that it didn't work cuz I also use gboard. I'll try it again and let you know.
Btw did you try it or are you saying it based on your notification?
Edit : Tried again and it still works

Are you sure time timeout actually sets to 2 minutes on your device?
I'm using an edited quick setting tile from Google play to check it

Quick settings is the culprit.
So I installed​ the quick settings app from playstore and used the screen time out tab and then all of a sudden my time out profile stopped working.
I then disabled the time out thing from the quick settings app and it still didn't work.
I then uninstalled the quick settings app and it still didn't work.
Finally I'd to reboot the device and my profile started working.
So yeah you'll have to choose between Quick Settings and Time Out.

4.2 known bugs

I thought it would be nice for both users and developers what to expect from next update to fix or be fixed. I'm gonna give a kick start to known bugs, so that we can be aware of the faults of 4.2. Don't shoot the things you didn't like here since it is nothing to do with this "bug" thread. Here I go..
1. I keep telling myself this should not be a bug since it is so obvious but there is no reason for it to be implemented that way. Which is the hour segment of lock screen time being bold and the other half is normal font.. Maybe there is a reason for this hopefully..
2. Pull down the notification bar from top, when it is down, pull down from the top most again. Notification center will continue going down and out of the screen. It applies for both quick settings and notification center.. Major bug! - 1 to googles test engineers.
Now you can add your own test cases and bugs and maybe we have great devs to sort them out and develop great custom roms..
I don't think either is a bug ,more or less design desicions. I actually like both things you mentioned

I can understand the first one but you clearly didn't understand the second. This is a major bug because a layout goes out of screen. They seem to not lock pulling down from the top most of the screen when it is already pulled down.. Result; notification center goes out of the screen..

If you fling it down it stops ,then you can pull it all the way down or just fling it back up.trust me they designed it that way ,it's not a bug.

This is probably a feature Not really a bug..
But on the lock screen .. Long tap the clock quickly.. you will see a big square highlight the unlock button Slide to unlock . This will take you to a STOP WATCH TYPE INTERFACE..
I Was hoping there would be a way in there to change the stupid bold hour number . That is gross to look at ..
Just to try it i Created a 3rd user..From the lock screen then you log into that user account to set it up. When it gets the point it ask for user Name SU Pops up asking to grant permission .. then give a message ..
SuperSU has granted superuser permission :/system/bin/id
tried 3 times .. if you let it set on that screen you will get Supersu isnt responding .. You click ok then it will allow you to continue setting up the account.
The second account set up fine.. Just thought i would try a 3rd and look at directory structure..
Can someone try and see if its just me with the issue. It finally created the account. with a reboot. but its unstable .Thanks Erica
Youtube is borked with stereo (a2dp) bluetooth headsets - sync issues, laggy, scratchy. They have clearly done some changes to bluetooth audio (you can hear the bluetooth headset mute/come alive when there is a moment or two of no sound).
Can't log into gmail with another account in chrome.
I used to log into another account in chrome that I haven't bothered linking. I went to gmail in chrome (not requesting desktop version) and I was already logged into my primary account. It's never done that before. I thought no big deal and signed out. Now gmail continually loops on the address constantly refreshing but the site never actually comes up.
And not a bug, but I'm annoyed Nexus 7 didn't get miracast. Can't imagine the reason for that. And the what's new page isn't clear that it is only nexus 4. http://www.android.com/whatsnew/
Yes it does say "Share what’s on your phone on the big screen." but the rest of the text and the page makes it seem like these are 4.2 features and not exclusive to N4. I'm hoping custom roms will enable miracast.
Also, not a bug but a feature lost, the camera no longer has the funny faces (big nose, small eyes etc). ya I know a dorky feature but I don't see why it was removed. I know the nexus 7 didn't have the camera enabled by default but we have the new camera app so I assume other devices lost those as well.

I'm getting an issue when tethering via Bluetooth. This morning it was working fine, the update came down while I was tethered to my phone, after the install I can pair to my phone but it won't connect.
I've tried deleting the pairing on both, re-pairing, rebooting... Anyone else having a problem? Anyone else doing Bluetooth tethering?
edit: never mind, I worked it out, I had to go in and select that I wanted to use the "Internet Access" profile

[Requires Root][Open Source] Charging LED Mode Changer

After reading the thread in the devs section regarding the charging LED I became curious and I made a quick app to change between modes.
It's not great, but it gets the job done.
I couldn't reply to the original thread so I'm posting here.
Source is attached too in case anybody wants to run with it.
Thanks to @garyd9 for doing all the research. Read about it here.

I didnt realize it, but the kernel I'm running (leankernel) supports LED charging via a script. It was setting it back to off on boot. Removed this app (which does work) and used the option built into leankernel.
Thanks for the app.
One enhancement could be to choose a mode for each LED, another would be to run at startup and apply the settings.
These are what i use ina script
#Charging LED blinking while charging, solid when full:
echo battery-charging-blink-full-solid > /sys/class/leds/charging/trigger
#Red LED as HDD(storage) activity indicator
echo mmc0 > /sys/class/leds/red/trigger

[App] SystemUI Tuner - By Zacharee1

Please see this thread by a recognized developer i met over on the LG V20 side of things,
Went ahead and tested it against the note 8 without root, you do have to send 3 strings ( Now just 1 set! )of commands via ADB to get it working but this is a one time thing.
This is practically the UITuner android builds into their software and the OEMs seem to kill it for whatever reason. Go to to his thread to check it out and show him some love and thanks. The app is available for free in the google play-store as well.
Practically can be done by a toddler as long as you follow the steps the app asks you to do! Very Simple and super useful!

Have you found anything this cannot do yet? Meaning, from the screenshots on the Play Store, it says some status bar icons cannot be disabled by Samsung phones, have you found that to be true on the Note8 yet? I have the phone but I haven't installed this yet, was looking for a solid solution to removing the useless NFC icon that Samsung always displays, as well as a way to change the awful Bluetooth icon to the AOSP (or as similar as possible) version.
Thanks!
I'm with you man... I hate having the alarm icon on all the time. I know, I know... I ALWAYS have an alarm set!
My note8 doesn't show NFC icon or alarm icon. I use timely so maybe that's why it does show up when I have pending alarms coming up or snoozed iirc. Sprint n8 if that matters

I hate it too. I understand when you get that msg with headphones but why I get it with my damn car BT! There was an article at xda that you can turn it off with AutoTools and some ADB commands, but that is not working with Samsung devices at least for me with S7E atm. I manage to fix it with Tasker and AutoInput.

Thanks Zachari! This app got me to get rid of the annoying heads up. But I think something went wrong with the display settings. The screen does not go off by itself. I mean the time out does not work.
Can anyone help?
By the way m using Galaxy S8 Plus.
This is a great app for the note8. Nfc, alarm icons gone. The screen rotation icon will show up so had to turn that off too. Bummer that the volume warning does not work. Can also adjust the number of quicksetting columns. Donated to the developer.

I must be retarted, but I can't get the ADB to work with Windows 10 Powershell. Anyone care to help?
I uninstalled the App and now my Notification pulldown icons are all black. Even after applying the default theme for the Note8 the icons are all white and still can't see them. How do you get the icons colors to show back up properly? I booted into stock recovery and did a cache partition wipe hoping how would fix it and no dice. Any help is appreciated.
Used it with the S8+ and the Note 8 to get rid of the battery icon. On the T-Mobile G1 ADB was the only way to get anything done, even a screenshot.
It's a great app I use it for my toggles and hiding my battery symbol and the immersive mode, can't wait for the volume warning to work on the Note 8 though

I was able to get the status bar icons to show back up by installing the app again and using adb on my desktop, but the question remains how do you completely uninstall this app and go back to stock settings? Is the only way to do a factory reset?

Did you select all option to theme or one by one?
So after you select the s8, it will automatically show you options of stuff that is installed on your phone, you can select multiple then install them. Also you can find a theme in be play store called swift for Samsung. It is actually better because the overlays there are designed for the Samsung stuff. Hope this helps. Try it and let me know.
I noticed when i restart my phone, some overlays (eg YouTube Twitter tumblr chrome) get back to the original theme and I have to reinstall the overlays even though it says up-to-date. Does it happen to you guys?

not sure wth is going on, but i'm using substratum with magisk rooted on nemesis rom, it's saying application successful but the settings menu is still white, notification window and QS icons are still white, only the dialer and a few other 3rd party apps got themed using swift black oreo samsung
I had some of my overlays reset on restart the first time. I reinstalled and now they seem to be sticking. YouTube gave me some issues, too. I didn't know about the Samsung variant, so I have the normal Swift Black. It seems to be working under S8 option now. Maybe that is what caused my little glitch.
It was annoying, but I thought it was going to change my notifications, too. It took another 3 hours of searching to get rid of the white notification background. Ugh. But it is worth it to use an almost all black phone.
I will totally be sharing substratum with my friends and family.
I do not take credit for the link, I got it in a YouTube video :

Thanks will try that. I'm thinking other option might be substratum. I'll have to dig deeper.
Edit. The strangest thing, notifications for the clock app were all blocked.

That's really odd. I have had so many things popup and ask if I want them enabled, disabled, etc though. Maybe it got blocked on accident if yours is doing the same thing. Glad you figured it out!

I just had a look under settings and apps, all my other apps the notification says blocked also?
Would you or anyone know how this could have happened?

My guess would be a Gremlin in the system, it happens on all mobiles. Either that or when you changed mobiles you used your old mobile to copy from or the cloud in which case sometimes things do go wrong.
I was told years ago to always start a fresh with each new mobile. I don't I use Samsung sync but there is ALWAYS some sort of minor **** up and its never perfect. :crying:
Like I wrote sometimes its just down to an odd behaviour...Gremlins as I call it.
I hope you got it sorted?

Yes , something went amiss as it wasn't like this until yesterday. I found that all my notifications were turned off in this menu.
