Over the past few weeks I have spent hours trying to get Tasker to work..
I have tried about 5 basic beginner videos on YouTube.. And I can't get none of them to work.
I even tried to just create a task to lower the volume..
It works if I hit the play button in Tasker.. But if I create a shortcut to that task on my home screen it won't work..
What am I doing wrong?
I'm using wicked rom.

Hi guys. I'm on Cleanrom 4.7.0 and Nova Prime. 2 problems: Every once in a while my task manager won't function. I'll long press home and it will give me Haptic feedback but nothing will show up. Occasionally (I've only noticed this happen while I'm inside an app) the task manager will appear for a split second and then disappear. This is fixed by a restart but it's getting really annoying as it happens quite often.
Second problem: my Wifi and mobile hot spot toggles (top row in notification dropdown) will stop being clickable (I can neither turn them off or on.) I can long press them to enter their settings and turn each one on from there, but the toggles themselves don't work. This also fixes itself via restart.
Anybody have any ideas?
have you tried fixing permissions Or wiping dalvik cache?

Haven't tried that, no. I know how to wipe the delvik cache but how do you fix permissions? Is that also in recovery?

I've noticed that task manager doesn't lways work great in certain apps.. I just click the home button, long press the home button to bring up task manager and delete the unwanted apps, then reopen the app you were in. The process takes literally 2 seconds.

When it stops working it doesn't matter if I'm in an app or not. I've gone to the application manager and closed all apps then tried again, still nothing on the long press. I'm hoping that wiping the cache and fixing permissions did the trick

Im on jedi x 13, and have pie launcher working, just curious to what everyone is using it for. I had toggles on it, but the pull down is good for that, just cant think of what to use it for at the moment.

I use it for quick access to necessary apps while I'm out n about on my bicycle. music maps etc its not as valuable as say is you were on nexus 7 but its a awesome jedi feature. I use it without the info showing because I like using the s pen thanks b whoever posted those awesome Hover point icons. If your feeling pie I recommend you checkout a app called relaunch1

why not just show your screen caps?
I've set it up with basic buttons like, back, home, recent apps, menu. I always use it coz it just appears on the side or bottom screen so i don't have to look down to press home or whatever.
POWERED by FROSTY!
Yeah ive tried it for all those things, found that the integrated phone features were easier and more user friendly. I like the feature and idea, just need the proper functionality for it.

I already have Unknown Sources checked. I was able to download third party apps in the past. Now when i try to install third party apps, on the installation screen it will not let me press the "install" button and nothing happens. So i have to press the "cancel" button. Anybody else experience this and know whats wrong?

Check your apps page. How much space do you have left?
I got 15gb free.

If you installed screen adjuster, turn it off. It is a bug of the app.
what exactly do you mean by a screen adjuster app? An app that gets you new wallpaper, a app that adjusts brightness, or an app that adjusts the color/gamma? Which one?
Sent from my LG-E980 using Tapatalk 4
How bout a reboot?
When you open an apk file to install the app, do you get a list of options of which installer to use?
Sent from my LG-E980 using Tapatalk 2
I power off my phone often and that has no effect.
yes. When you open the apk you get a list of which installers to use. I tried both installers and i could not get any third party apks to install.

Awesome!!! I couldn't figure this out for the life of me. I had to manually update my Note 3 to Kit Kat in which it wiped my phone, so I lost a bunch of 3rd party apps that I needed to reinstall. One of the new apps my buddy recommended during the in between time of me setting back up my phone was called "Twilight", a app to take the blues out and allow for more dimming of the screen for a better sleep before bed because of all those new studies saying the screen messes with melatonin levels and causes technology hangovers lol. A quick uninstall of that app and bam, it let me press the install button.

I never had much use for it. I keep Google Music, TuneIn Radio and PowerAmp widgets on my music page. I use them as needed.
My issue with page buddy was that it "intelligently" decided what apps to show based on what you used the most frequently (or recently?) while in that mode and didn't give you option to manually add apps to the page.
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I never really used Page Buddy on my Note 2. That was partly because I didn't really find it too useful and also because I used Nova launcher, which automatically got rid of Page Buddy since it was a function of the Touchwiz launcher.
Spotify, PowerAmp as music widgets. Nothing else matters.

How are you able to turn these recommend apps off? I can't find this setting and I've been looking, thanks...
I hated page buddy lol. It was the first thing I turned off on my note 2. I was glad that it wasn't on the note 3
Ok for what it matters.....
I could have sworn I froze some kind of page buddy thing with Ti backup.....so after some thought...I went back into Ti backup and sure enough....I froze something called "pagebuddyNotiSvc 1.0" dunno if thats what youre looking for but it is frozen on my note 3.
Peace

im not rooted, but i did disable that as well in application manager. as i recall, when i plugged in my headphones, instead of the full page buddy from the note 2, i got a row of "audio apps" in the notification tray. since turning this off, that has since gone away. not sure what other functions are included with this besides the headphone triggered stuff. useless feature, IMO.

This works - YEAH!
I have disabled the PageBuddyNotiSvc" in Application Manager. I had to also delete the service's cache, then it worked.
Thanks guys!
Everytime I unlock my note 2 the location icon comes up literatly every time, If I lock the device and then unlock it 10 seconds later its there, I can understand doing it if it was 15 mins or so.
Would this be an app doing this or is it just a samsung thing? Is there a way to tell or does everyones phone do this?

check if you have some weather app which refresh itself everytime you unlock the screen.
this is not samsung thing, I faced the same thing with some weather apps
I only have two weather apps, BBC and notification weather bother are set as 2 and 4 hours refresh time. Any other clues or apps I can find out using this?

Most likely an app and unless I do a lot of digging (I can't remember the apps name) I would shut off GPS unless needed... Essentials there is an app that can observe your wake lock behaviors and determine what the culprit is (I.e. which app is causing the GPS to trigger).. No one can really help you figure out a solution without knowing this info either... Do some research and see if you can't figure it out as I will in spare time try my best to point you in a better direction

Thank you for the honesty I have had a look at some apps and most weather have hour refresh rates. I thoght automate it could of been it but force closed it and it isn't that app either. Dont know why so many apps are allowed access to this stuff when they don't need it.

i was going to ask if you are using tasker- automate is a lot like it.....but it seems you have eliminated that possibiltiy

I do read them but unless you want the app what can you do? Heck if I read them I would only proberbly have one or two apps installed as all apps ask for loads of permissions they don't need at all that's what I meant.
Anyway found the app, sense v2 flip clock thought it looked the best out of all the look alikes. Gone back to beautiful widgets now and ain't had the location thing back yet. Strange because there is an option to update upon unlocking and I had unticked that so I guess it ignores your preferences.
