Assign sync function - NFC Hacking

I've been looking around on the web and on XDA to find a way to assign a sync function to NFC tag.
Basically, what I want to do is to turn off all sync when I leave the house and re-enable it when I get back.
Any suggestions on how to do this? I can't find anything in Trigger.
I've already assigned a Wifi (on/off) and volume/vibration adjustement and those work as they should.

You can do all that and much more with Tasker and Xposed.
I bet there are more friendly solutions out there, but this is what I use and it works like a charm (without even having to use a tag).
Cheers!

Oh, forgot to mention that I'm not rooted and running stock.

NFC retag free from playstore. I currently use with my Xperia tags now. No need for root to program auto sync when tap. You may have to disable smart connect apps or the tags app (system app) if they interfere

you should elaborate more . i can't understand what were you trying to say. juice defender ultimate will not disable your wifi or data if your screen is on (unless you disable it yourself). you can set the juice defender either want to manage your wifi, data connection, either one, or both.
I know this but i search a way toi enable wifi or data when i open an app Mike mail or other

App Trigger
Hi Artikiri,
This is Albie from Latedroid, creators of JuiceDefender.
You are probably looking for the App Trigger.
First select a customizable profile in the Status tab ('Customize' or 'Advanced').
If you picked 'Customize', find 'Apps' in the Settings tab.
If you picked 'Advanced', find it in the Triggers tab.
The description text is self-explanatory.
Hope this helps!

Apps that work with google now?

So when I was looking at the settings for google now, there's a setting called tablet search which is a select list of your apps that google now presumably uses in order to answer your question to the best of it's ability. You can enable or disable whether or not google uses that app to give you an answer.
My question to you is do you know of any additional apps that will appear on the tablet search menu?
I haven't done much searching but I downloaded the IMDB app and it showed up on the list, and I enabled it.
Thank you,

NFC tags

Just curious what can they do and what are there capabilities
Sent from my LT28i using xda app-developers app
depends on what app you're using them with. if you are the creative type, combine NFC tags with NFC Task Lancher and Tasker, you can literally program your phone to execute any command Tasker can do (which is a ridiculous amount). Realistically, however, people use it to trigger things like wifi/bt, set alarms, trigger ringer, pass URLs or contacts. Essentially the tags keep a text string.
Thankyou I really appreciate ure reply

VPN Shortcut or Widget

Is there any other faster/easier way to open the VPN list or a connection other than going into Menu, Settings, More Settings, VPN?

You could try something generic like the Bar Shortcut app which let's you put a shortcut to any app or setting in your notifications bar https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coinsoft.android.barshortcuts.
Or something more specific to VPN like 5VPN https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.doenter.android.vpn.fivevpn
I don't know if either of these is compatible with your device but my point is there are apps like these out there. A quick search through the play store should reveal them.

Thanks... I was hoping to not have to use a 3rd party app. The second one you mentioned requires payment for a one-click solution. I'd rather do it the original way if I can't find a built-in solution.

Programming NFC Tiles with Tasker?

I have looked everywhere for the answer to this so it either doesn't exist or I completely missed it, but how do you program Samsung Tectiles or other NFC tiles with Tasker? I've heard of other members using Tasker to be able to set some pretty advanced profile options onto their NFC tiles using Tasker, but for the life of me I just can't figure out how they do it.
Thanks in advance guys.

Try an app called "NFC Task Launcher" for programming the tags. If I remember correctly, it ties in with Tasker.

I need a Tasker profile that contains NFC programming capability. Their website doesn't have profiles for that on it. I need to know where to get the profile.

The web site has allot of info
I personally use NFC retag for setting up tags. Dont forget to set up Tasker to allow external access.
You dont create profiles, you trigger specific tasks within Tasker using NFC Launcher or NFC retag. If you are trying to trigger a profile just set up the tag to trigger the tasks of that profile.
Your best bet is to search xda and google for examples of how others have theirs set up. I dont think there is a single site with all the info you are seeking.
Here is one example that I use setup in NFC retag for my car:
Cycle 1
1. Turns off wifi
2. Bluetooth on
2. Tasker task - triggers popup announcing Cycle start (nfc retag has a popup function, but it is not as modifiable)
3. Start app - Torque (Tasker is already setup to turn on/off gps for this app)
4. Tasker task - plugin Bluetooth Auto Connect connects to bt obdii device
Cycle 2
1. Bluetooth off
2. Tasker task - popup announces cycle stop
