Please advise tasker newbe about blocking/deleting unwanted notifications which contain defined phrases from any application (e.g. muting notifications about Google Play Framework missing (which is frozen)).
In other words, if any application displays its notification in the NotificationBar, and this notification has in its content any phrase from the list (defined somewhere by user before), then Tasker will remove this notification not to bother a user.
Probably it needs some variables:
- Notification ID
- Notification content
- List of phrases
In a profile there must be:
- Appearing a new notification
- In a loop, checking for every phrase if notification content holds it (grep ?),
- If it holds it then notification ID is written to variable and:
- Task is fired:
"close notification of given ID"
And how to code this into Tasker's language???
Please help in defining this, is it possible?
Look at AutoNotification. You can intercept other apps notifications and clear them.
Any possibility to code it in Linux style without third patty gui plugins? Anyway thank you!

Tasker can detect notifications, but can only read the title, I believe. It should also be able to clear them, though, I haven't look into it.
AutoNotification is better at handling notifications, that's for sure.
Yes, but maybe some text console Android system commands can read a notification content?
And also clear it, because can't find in Tasker any action of clearing a notification.
Tasker can do anything if you have sufficient knowledge. Learn how to create an app that does what AutoNotification does then use Tasker's intents/scripts to replicate it.
But then (and I say this a lot), why would you want the overhead of Tasker's framework? The whole point of plug-ins is to extend Tasker's capabilities.
And again, Automagic does it as easy as abc:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Please, seriously asking, how advantageous is Tasker over Automagic (excluding rubbish like ease of use, clear GUI etc)?
Different strokes for different folks
Please, seriously answer, probably there is some trade-off between ease of use and effectiveness, stability etc?
I like how Tasker reacts on "shake" trigger, there is possibility to accurate define what sort of shakes, in which axis (left-right, to&fro) etc.
Automagic fails do it in such nice way.

Hi,
Is it possible to make a "New Folder" in WP7? Just for example: to put all games in a one folder?
Not at the moment.
App Folders to WP7? Not any time soon.

"We've been tipped off about an interesting bit of polling going on at the monsmartphone.net (they're a lot like us, but French!) regarding something that all Windows users are all too familiar with. Folders!
The question raised, "Would you like to be able to categorize your applications?", has caught some attention from their more organized readers. Users who've downloaded a lot of Apps were quick to remark that they don't like having to scroll so much to find the ones at the bottom of the pile.
Pinning the most frequently used apps to the Start Menu solves the problem easily but not at all if you're the kind of person to keep a lot of frequent contacts up there. Even more so if you're the type to collect applications - the Markteplace reached 7,000 apps not too long ago and like we said, there's no end in sight. The reasoning is there for some users, certainly. Other users, like myself, don't see the need. Not yet anyway.
Monsmartphone.net's writer, Detsch, had apparently submitted this quandary to Microsoft and from what we've gathered from throwing their site through the make-it-english machine (No, not just google translate! I made a real-live French person read it to me in English!) was that Microsoft does not currently think that this functionality is a priority in the evolution of their OS.
Read more after the break.
Whether or not there was actual scientific research done to back it up or if any charts were involved is unclear but they claim that they average number of apps used by the average user just doesn't require such a poll-worthy, why-don't-we-have-this, functionality. Interesting tidbits from the commentors brought up the option of it. Reminds us a little of Microsoft's position on screen captures.
If folders were eventually included in an update they would prefer it as an option - not a mandate that they had to follow through with. Some presumptions also include folder use for contacts following the lines of Work contacts, Pals, Bowling Team, and things like that. This followed suit with sms and the Games Hub as well with sorted genres.
The most interesting concept of note was not if people would like folders or not but the ability to categorize their apps. Meaning, apps could be categorized and sorted but not necessarily by using folders.
What if they were sorted into specific hubs that opened an additional app listing? That piqued my interest and got me thinking of a better question. If we had the ability to sort or categorize or filter our apps - how would you like it done and how would it work with the Metro UI?"

An internet connection is required for syncing to Google Tasks. You can run it offline for periods, but it's main purpose is to be connected to Google Tasks at it's heart, so it uses your Google account and requires internet connection to retrieve your tasks when you first open the app, after that you can open the app without internet and modify things and sync later.
it is really what i want
Getting Started With Tasker
Many of us have probably had a similar experience with the first time we used Tasker. We download the app, take our clothes off, get into bed and then realize we just aren't ready for this. So I thought I'd put together a small getting started guide for Tasker.
What is Tasker?
Tasker is an Android app that allows you to create automated tasks that are triggered based on selected circumstances... Ok that's already confusing so let me give you an example. I can program tasker to open up my shopping list every time my GPS location shows that I'm at the grocery store. I can also program my phone to to lock my texting app when I go to sleep so my girlfriend doesn't snoop through my phone. Now all I need is a girlfriend.
First be sure to download the app from the Play store.

Scenes
Scenes are user interfaces that you can create in Tasker. Think of a scene as a box that contains various elements that you would normally find in an app interface, like buttons, text, text input, images, sliders, and so on. Normal Tasker actions can be tied to these elements, so that you can have a button that runs a task, a text field that lets you write text to a variable, or a slider that controls screen brightness.
Scenes can be all kinds of sizes, and be displayed in different ways: As a pop-up box, full screen like an app, as an overlay over another app, and so on. The size and type of scene depends on what you need the scene to do. I will quickly go through the basics of creating a scene, and then I will go through multiple examples at the end to show how everything works in practice and for different uses.
Tasks
Tasks are a set of customized actions. You can create tasks like "If the battery is below 50%, mute volume." Creating tasks is usually the part where most people give up. After all it looks like you're solving advanced algebra problems. Stick with it and mess around with it until you get the hang of it.
Profiles
Profiles are conditions that will trigger your tasks that you've created. I can create a profile that will trigger my mute volume task that I created above to only activate on the weekends. So then I know that every Saturday and Sunday my volume will mute if my battery is below 50%.
These settings will also take a bit to get used to. Don't worry, you wont hurt anything by messing around with them until it all makes sense.
This will get you started to the point where you can create your first automated task. Just start simple and then experiment with more complex tasks.
Since I had the Oneplus 5 I noticed the alert slider's functionality is pretty dumb. I have looked everywhere for a way to have it in silence/vibrate/all and I finally found a partial solution.
This lets you get SILENCE/ALL/VIBRATE in this order from top to bottom positions
Download OnePlus Mode Switcher.
The app lets you set the volume of the standard "ALL" setting to vibrate. It works in the background and you can set it to open on startup.
Set the slider options like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This has been tested and is working on OOS 4.5.10, but it should also work on any other OOS custom rom.
For those who need a much more customizable slider, I suggest MoKee or RR. These roms have the MoKee slider options but they're not OOS based.
don't see how getting used to op5 slider is hard. tbh it's logical that bottom is and top is mute.

It's badly implemented. It doesn't reflect the standard Android settings of silence/vibrate/all.
It breaks all those apps that revolve around those statuses, since they didn't even flag the position change the same way.
The priority setting is useless (for me), it doesn't allow you to mute apps, and so if you're in a meeting you can only choose between them hearing everything or you not hearing anything.
The volume in all/priority can't be set to 0. This is basically them brute forcing a design flaw on us so that we use it as they wanted it.
The settings cannot be changed without Xposed [which for now is unstable and so the old module devs (for 3/3T) are waiting]. This is just stupid, we're on android, not iOS. It's literally just a triggered action, they could change it in maybe 3 minutes counting system bootup and IDE opening time. How much money is that, less than 1$?
I agree. I don't ever use the slider 'cause it's useless..
Hello guys. When google maps completes a trip it displays a completed trip splash screen where one has to click Done in order to continue. I do lots of trips and would like to automate this with tasker.
I would like to schedule a task that will execute click of Done at the end of the trip so maps can go to their default screen of showing your location. I do lots of trips and i find this splash screen unnecessary.
Most of the tutorials i found use time as variable but time will change all the time so can not use time and need to use some other variable. Not sure how to set this up especially the variables.
Anyone can help me out what actions to setup in Tasker in order to execute this after each trip completes? Thank you in advance.
Get AutoInput Tasker Plugin. Then create a Profile-->event-->Plugin-->AutoInput-->UI Update. Set it up using guides/tutorials to monitor Google Maps for that "Done" button to appear. Then for the task, use AutoInput to automatically tap the "Done" button for you.
Watch a bunch of tutorials about AutoInput....it is the key here.

Hi @Stupifier Thank you for that. I think i'm getting there but have last hurdle. One thing i'm uncertain now.
Do i choose for text YOU HAVE MADE or DONE ?
Should i check only clickable and "DONE" text and ONLY visable "YOU HAVE MADE IT" text ?
Anything for Variables ? After i create Profile and set all of that it won't let me complete without setting tasks. It want's to delete unfinished profile as no tasks have been set.
Here is the task / splash screen what i need to auto task / auto input. The automation of click "auto click" needs to be executed on Done button.

What to put in for Text. Do i choose for text YOU HAVE MADE or DONE ?

Tasker won't let me complete it without tasks setup. I thought autoinput would set this up based on what i inputed into fields in screenshot above. I guess tasks are still missing? Thoughts?
