Someone please enlighten me how do you use Audio Manger or the Today Plugin player in the latest VM6 roms?
They seem useless since there is no way to turn off the screen!??
Do all of you play listen with the screen and backlight on?
There's quite some design flaws in WM6, off course I would like audio to keep playing when using the standby button, or at least have that option!?
In WMP you can at least assign a key to turn off/on screen.
Look at iPhone, offcourse it continues to play music when using the standby button, as it should be.
M$ has a LOT of work to make VM7 user friendly.

good point, I dont use i either! I dont see the use in it. If you cant toggle the screen (turn of the screen saves battery)

use Coreplayer or TCPMP
I "device lock" it after i press play. There's a device lock program that automatically sets the backlight to be off after 10 secs when executed.
I just set my backlight to turn off as well, used my device playing through audiomanager for about an hour today at work, screen off.

But screen and backlight is still on sucking battery even when using the keylock when Audio Manager is playing. Screen is dimmed a litte but backlight is still on. I can't understand how poorly designed theese apps are from HTC.
Armstrongs Device lock
Search the site for it. It can be configured to turn the screen off when activated. You can also map a button to it. I haven't tried on WM6 though. Worked like a charm with Pocket player and WM5.
not sure if you guys notice...but audio manger lets you make your ringtones right from the phone. this is a nice feature for me...as i use to make my ring tones using nero onthe computer...now when someone emails me a song i can edit it right on my phone for ringtone use...i like that alot. other than that...it looks nice..but i still use media player or core player. but hey...one more app can't hurt...
guys, is there any point turning off WiFi when not in use, or does it do the decent thing and stop using power when not actively in use?

I'd imagine it still scans for networks so it will still use battery - I just have the toggle on one of my home screens and turn it on when needed

from Market, get WiFi Status from Andrew Schwimmer, one of the very best android app developers. It doesn't do exactly what you want but it's the smartest detection app out there for letting you know when there is no wifi signal to connect to, thus prompting you to toggle off wifi. It displays in the Notification Bar.
As for turning off wifi, I tried about 10 home screen widgets; they are all the same more or less. To me the far greater tool is Quick Settings, which gives you one-click access from anywhere via the Notification Bar, vs having to navigate to home screen and find the widget. But in addition it has toggles for sound, brightness, data, gps, bluetooth, etc -- all in on fast app.
I think it blows all these single-function widgets away as dumb.
So if my phone is on, screen off, in my pocket, it'll be constantly looking for wifi? If this is the case it's, well, dumb. Ta for tip about quick settings, just installed it and it's very nice.

Not sure it would be scanning for wifi when the screen is off. That would be daft. Ntework coverage yes, but wouldnt think wifi until you turn on the screen. Anyone confirm?
no, it stays on when the screen is off.
Seems so many people complained about it turning off in standby that google went ahead and changed it.
now it defaults to staying on forever until manually turned off.
Go to Settings> Wireless & Networks > Wi-Fi Settings > [Menu] > Advanced > Wi-Fi sleep policy. I set mine to 'after 15 mins'... if I understood this setting correctly then after 15 minutes of the phone being in Sleep mode it'd turn off the Wi-Fi. I don't use mobile data anyway so that's irrelevant. Wi-Fi will turn on again once I activate the screen.
blimey, that's well hidden.
what a stupid arrangement. WiFi should be on demand, and enabled only when data requests it, like the iPhone.

I use "Y5 - Battery Saver" for my wireless shenanigans
I am using 'Y5 battery save'r. It turns on wifi if you are on a location where you had a wifi connection and turns it off if you go elsewhere. You can manage the locations in the program. It can use the GPS or radio for the locations. You will find it in the market place.
I wanted to start a thread that focused on automation idea's and how to execute them and NOT about troubleshooting apps or why you can't get any NFC tags to format etc...
There is already a thread dedicated to that here :

So assuming there is a demand, please discuss any automation like:
-What you have done with your NFC tags
-What have you done with the app Tasker, NFC Task Launcher or any other automation app/scripts.
-Dream Idea's, like I want to have my house make a pizza and have it ready when I get home, but I don't know how to do that. anyone?

Nice thread! I use these every day!
NFC Task Launcher:
1) Tag on my laptops - Enable WiFi HotSpot, Set password and SSID, Disable Bluetooth if on, disable sync.
2) By my Door - I use a Home and Away Profile.
Away is triggered first and Disables WiFi, Enables 3G/4G, Enables Vibrate mode.
Home is triggered on second tap - Enables WiFi, Connects to my SSID, Disables 3/4G, Full Volume, Enable Sync if it was off, Launch gmail app to pull e-mails.
3) A small tag on my BT Headset - Enable BT and Connect to the headset. (When the headset is connected Tasker launches Rdio). Second tap disable BT and Tasker closes Rdio if open still.
Tasker:
1) If I am Near Cell ID by my house or friends house enable WiFi.
2) If SSID is near connect, if not disable WiFi.
3) Maps opens enable GPS, disable when closed.
4) When BT Headset connects open Rdio set media volume to 7
5) When wired headset is plugged in open Rdio set media to 11. (for the car XD)
6) When charging is pluged in set brightness to full, Max Ring volume, Enable WiFi if it's off, Enable Sync, Launch E-Mail for refresh.
7) When charged Vibrate for 30 Secs + Audio alert.
8) Proximity sensor Locks screen.
9) Long press search enable BT.
10) From 23:00 to 07:00 Dim screen to lowest setting, Vibrate mode, launch clock.
I can export them if anyone wants to use them!
Nice job! You should export those and attach them here anyway. Even if someone doesn't need exactly what you have done the profiles could be a really good learning tool. Really nice job on some of those.
I am trying to have interactions with specific programs using tasker without much luck. What I would love to do is turn my TV on and go to my DVR using the Google TV app when I place my phone on the coffee table with a nfc sticker.

Ive got a 'beacon for android' coming in the mail. when it gets here im hoping to hide a nfc card in the arm rest of my couch so when i put the phone down it will turn on the tv and will launch to the universal remote part of the dijit program.
Im thinkin all that might take some work tho. Also i would love to be using iRule/GC-100-12 or the logitech revue/harmony but cant afford to set those systems up.
I also have another NFC card on my desk so when i put my phone down it starts my computer (Using NFC launcher and tasker).
One idea i would love your opinons on is, can tasker determing if a microusb plugged in is a charger or computer or MHL/HDMI connection? i would love for my gallary or emulation to pop up when i plug it into a tv

its entirely possible, just takes alot of apps and hardware.
1. NFC Card launches the particular activity in the universal remote app (dijit/irule/harmony/etc) this may require tasker.
2.Remote app performs its functions.
2.1.connects via BT/WIFI to a controller (these can emit IR/RF/rs232/TCP)
2.2.the controller sends out all the commands to all the devices, alot of this will need to be programmed in your remote app
3. NFC launcher/tasker then launches the app activity that shows you the remote.
There is alot of stuff to get your head around in controlling a home theater because there are so many differant ways of doing the same thing. How you make all this work will depend on your current system and how much your willing to spend.
For example some tv's come with HDMI-CEC (look it up on wiki), this feature allows the tv to turn on the av receiver over the hdmi cable and swap it to the correct input when you change sources.
when it comes down to it the android app is the easiest part of the system to set up, even if its the most featureless.
Well the Google TV app acts as a remote. Is there a way to record touch actions on top of opening apps? If so it should be easy as its just a few buttons to turn on everything and get to the right channel, would just be amazing if it can all be automated.

So far I haven't found a way. It would be awesome for more than just google tv. If tasker, or another 'macro' type program could be set to record touches on the screen based on location coordinates or something. Like a mouse macro program on a pc. That would allow all sorts of things. For example all of this would be reality with this one hurdle:
1) When I approach my home using tasker, open my ADT app and disable the alarm in my house
2) Open my garage door with HTN app.
3) Turn the lights on with the HTN app.
4) Walk inside, and using a NFC sticker, trigger a welcome home message from my denon reciever app (hooked up to speakers throughout the house) and start some jazz music. Of course set my phone profile correctly, and maybe turn the google tv on and navigate to the cheesy firplace app.
All of this is easy, with one macro app that is the missing link.
There are apps out there that use your cell tower to turn your wifi on/off when you enter/leave your home/cell tower. you'd be surprised how accurate it is and how it doesn't drain your battery. They do other things like control gps/bluetooth/etc.
and their free and dont require purchase of tags. You could easily do this exact thread with just the app below.
They might not be able to turn your tv on, but for quality automation, you should check em out.
For one I highly recommend, try Llama in the market. Free too!

Well we still need them a little. For example, I go to the same grocery store each week. So I like to have it that when I arrive, it connects to their wifi and launches the Grocery IQ app. Then it sends a text message to my wife saying "I just arrived at Wegmans, if there is any last minute items to get add it to Grocery IQ now."

I used to use Locale, until it just ate up too much juice on my phone. One nice thing I could do with it is change my Google Voice settings based on my location. I had it set to disable my desk phone if I wasn't at work, and to enable it when I arrived at the office. Can you do something like this via NFC? IIRC Tasker is compatible with Locale plugins, so I could just use that.

How did you get it to allow Tasker to control GPS? It tells me this functionality is not allowed on my Nexus...I am trying to enable it in Actions -> Misc -> *GPS
Do you on a ROM that has disabled the restriction that does not allow access to GPS?

EDIT: My Questions were answered on a different board.
Hi everyone,
So I have mounted my tablet in the centre console of my car flush, the last bit is getting tasker to react in the correct way.
The problem I'm getting is that split second when you turn the key from 'on' to turning it over it looses power. This plays around with the profiles I have set up...
Has anyone made a task that will stop it from turning on and off and back on again when the car starts up or make it load smoother?
Thanks Chad

I don't know your exact situation or what your tasker proffile setup is, but couldn't you simply add in a wait for x seconds step in one of your profiles?
My set up is like this:
Profile - State - Power (Any)
Task:
Blue tooth on
Wifi on
Car home ultra open
Pop message
Profile 2: State - Power (invert)
Task:
Pop message
Blue tooth off
Wifi off
Kill Car home ultra
Screen lock
That's what I'm using at the moment but that split second just messes with it.. Makes it all muddled up as in a short time it's turning on, off and on again.
Would that time task you suggested bypass it recognising that it's losing power?

By no means am I a pro with Tasker, but you could probably put in a wait command at the beginning of the 1st profile and it may stay alive when the car loses it's power for that short time.
I'll give that a go and see if it works.
Will let you know of the outcome
Thank you!
It didn't work unfortunately..
Any other ideas, links, answers to help me out on this?
I would really appreciate it!

Press and hold the Profile and select the properties and set the cool down timer to a value so that the profile can't attempt to run again so soon, but that might have unfavorable results too. So, since the power on sensor is causing this, you might consider splitting the task into multiple Profiles where the Power on only turns on the Bluetooth, with some other Profiles configured using net Bluetooth connected and Bluetooth invert doing the rest maybe?

Is there anyway to get the theatre mode double press shortcut back? Having to pulldown and tap a small menu button is really bothering me.
Also tripple press for brightnes boost not working.

I really miss the single tap waking the screen and putting it back into ambient mode. It allowed for turning my screen on and off without causing finger prints or possibility of undetected touch due to dry fingers. Palming the screen to turn off/enable ambient mode, used to intermittently result in onscreen actions being pressed like starting my stopwatch, or even worse stopping my stopwatch after I had just started it. I must have used single press of the button 100x per day. Now I have to actually wait for my screen to turn itself off. This alone has to half the battery life on the watch.
Double tap button for cinema mode was also a nice feature but I only do it once per day at night to save power so enabling through the swipe down menu isn't a big deal for me.
Worse is the three tap to turn on max brightness temporary. Today outdoor i Couldn't see my watch screen. Not seeing it also makes it impossible to enter brightness menu to increase brightness. I start to get more and more annoyed by 2.0 ?

I haven't tried it yet, but I saw this app, Wear Button Remapper, recommended on Reddit.
It says it can remap your button long press to any app, or to theater mode if your watch is rooted.
There are a ton of things that are frustrating, but I have figured out a way to cope with most of it.
For Do Not Disturb Sync, there is an app that restores this functionality.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rkr.weardndsync
For theater mode, I setup a tasker task using autowear to run an app that allows toggling theater mode.
https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidWear/comments/64qitr/toggle_theater_mode_on_wear_20/
I'm guessing that wear button remapper would allow us to enable theater mode without root using this app.
It's great that devs have developed apps to remap long press. Hopefully it won't be long before they can map double and triple tap to let us use the 1.5 theater and max brightness modes again.

This is soooo frickin' awesome, I am just thrilled. I finally got one of the automatons I missed on AW 1.5 with Wear Shell. It took me a couple tries to get the task set. I use Sleep as Android and it supports Tasker but it would not trigger this app adding it to my existing profile, but just setting Toggle Theater Mode to run when Sleep runs did the trick!

Yeah, there does seem to be some sort of glitch with the tasker autowear integration. I'm not sure what it is, but it seems to run the same autowear task even if you reconfigure it in tasker. The fix seems to delete the task and create a new one with a different name.
I use minimal and elegant as my watch face and was able to use the interactive functions to run the tasker task. I now have a button on the watch face that allows quick access to sleep tracking that enables do not disturb and theater mode.
You have to use SleepWear for the app name instead of start sleep tracking which makes it a little more difficult. Any ideas on how to find the app package name on wear?

I just made a second task that triggers on the Sleep app starting, so I have two tasks - one runs on the Sleep Start intent and the other to trigger your app via Auto Wear. It works great. If I do open the Sleep app during the day then I do get theater mode, but I'm fine with that to get the night time auto start. :good:
