Lockable NFC Launchers - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to use [NFC Task Launcher] to control [App Protector Pro] so that specific Apps can be unlocked via NFC.
Basically the following method:
NFC Task Launcher -> Tasker Task -> App Protector Pro Plugin -> Disable App Protector Pro
But the problem is, the task to unlock App Protector Pro can be called from directly within NFC Launcher GUI. This defeats the purpose of App Protector Pro since anyone can go into NFC Task Launcher to unlock App Protector Pro.
at least a PIN lock is needed to plug this security hole.
Is there any NFC Task Launcher that locks the GUI access?

Tasker & S-Pen Removal

Is there anyway in Tasker to detect S-Pen removal? If there is I'd like to try (or get some advice for) creating a profile that if my screen is on, and there is no active app to have Tasker launch an app w/ S-Pen removal.

Thanks for the pointer. That plugin works great. Is there any way in an if statement in a task to have Tasker detect if there are any foreground apps running? I am hoping to develop a profile/task that launches a specific app on S-Pen removal only if I'm not currently using any other app (actively/foreground).
Haven't used Tasker in a while but why not put the foreground app in the profile?
The point is there is no foreground app. Profile is activated by the Spen removal then I want task to activate an app only if there are no current foreground apps. In other words if I'm using a program and remove Spen nothing happens but if the screen is off or I'm just at the home screen when I remove the Spen the task will activate the specified app.

Try using If -> Profiles active and create a profile that uses your Launcher as the context application.
Or make a profile with your Launcher as context and some on and exit tasks that can be picked up by the If. Maybe just set a variable to a particular value.
Being on the Home screen just means running the Launcher in foreground, right?

Great idea and works flawlessly. Have a task with just a "stop" event assigned to a profile with the "TouchWiz home" app as the context. Second profile for Spen removed has a task that has if profile active statement and only executes if I'm at the home screen... Screen on or off. Thanks for the idea!

Hey Jeggen I was wondering if you could help me. I'm on the note 2014 edition and I want to create a profile that pauses and unpauses gmd gesture control when I remove and insert the spen respectively. I'm just extremely unfamiliar with tasker at this point. Think you could lend a tasker noon a hand?
Is the the app you are asking about? If so I don't see any plugin in Tasker to enable or disable this app from a Tasker action which would be needed to make this happen.

The app you need to detect spen removal and insertion in Tasker is Note Buddy
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tushar.spen_helper
If you have both you could setup the task to enable or disable the GMD gesture control and then when adding the profile to Tasker select state then plugin and note buddy to setup a profile based on pen removal and assign the disable task when pens removed and the exit task for that profile should be the enable task for gmd gesture control.

isn't there any app for fingerprint apps locking ?
stock
hey can you just send stock rom of your auxus prime
1. App Locker - I'm using this app, the best. I strongly recommend you this app.
App Locker is the first app that you can try on your device. It’s a very basic app with a simple interface.
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.martianmode.applock&hl=en
apk: http://choilieng.com/apk-on-pc/com.martianmode.applock.apk
2. FingerSecurity
The second app that you can try is FingerSecurity and the initial setup is similar to App Locker. You will have to check is the app is compatible with the device and grant it Accessibility Access which is mandatory for such apps to function. Having done that, you are free to load the app lock list and enable toggle switch to lock the particular app.
No ads - that sounds good

3. CM App Lock - Fingerprint Unlock
CM App Lock Fingerprint Unlock is the third and the most feature rich fingerprint app locker that you can install on your Android, the app has good ratings and works good, so there is no harm in trying it out. CM App Lock Fingerprint initial configuration is very similar and just like any other app, you will have to lock the apps from a list. The option to lock Bluetooth and Wi-Fi state is also an added feature.
The features that are worth mentioning about the app is that you can download several lock screen themes for free and give your lock screen a new color every day. Apart from that, you get the option to reset the password using the Google account you have on the Android. The app also gives you the option to snap a picture from the front camera if it detects multiple failed attempts to unlock the app (Intruder selfie) .I installed CM cleaner and this feature included but i rarely use this app. Anw, another good app to try :good:
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cms.lock&hl=en

Have fun.

Using fingerprintscanner to unlock/open app

Is it possible to allocate the fingerprintscanner to a certain app so I can only open it with my fingerprint after I unlocked my phone?
I want it to work the same way unlocking my phone does, like having multiple fingerprints
Is there a mod or module that can do this?
Community build 3.5.4 has this built in now which is called app lock where you can use your finger print or unlock code, pattern to lock applications to stop others from getting into them.
you can also do this with the xposed module MaxLock
Yes you can

[HOW TO] Is there any way to lock 'SETTINGS' app using inbuilt AppLock?

OneUi based roms have inbuilt AppLock. There are two ways to enable this feature.
1. Download and Install Samsung's 'S Secure' app from galaxy store to enable the feature.
Pros: It is easy to use compared to 2nd way.
Cons: It can be uninstalled from settings, and all your security is gone.
2. Download and install Quick Shortcut Maker from PlayStore. Open it and under Activity tab search for AppLock. Under this search for and tap on activity ending with 'AppLockSettingsActivity'.
Pros: As you just enable inbuilt feature, it can't be uninstalled.
Cons: Little lengthy for first time.
[HOW TO]
If anyone knows how to lock 'SETTINGS' app without using any 3rd party app, please explain.
