Tasker

One-liner to calculate the binary value to toggle, enable, or disable an option via Java Function or Tasker Settings:

%val = ceil((abs(%val - 1) + %par(#?1/on/true) - %par(#?0/off/false))/(2+%par(#)))

%val is the binary value of the current state, if first retrieved. Otherwise, will perform toggle, or will perform absolute stating if passed a parameter

One-liner to extract a base-12 hour from Tasker’s base-24 %TIME variable:

%hour = floor(%TIME) - floor(%TIME/13)*12 + floor(abs(floor(%TIME) - 24)/24)*12

The first segment extracts the hour by discarding the minutes; the second segment subtracts any p.m. offset (from 13.00 to 23.00); the third segment converts midnight (00:00) to 12.

One-liner to add arbitrary minutes to Tasker’s base-24 %TIME variable:

%future = floor(%TIME) + floor(((%TIME - floor(%TIME))*100 + %mins)/60) - floor((floor(%TIME) + floor(((%TIME - floor(%TIME))*100 + %mins)/60))/24)*24   +   (((floor(%TIME)*60 + (%TIME - floor(%TIME))*100 + %mins)) % 60)/100

To prettify the output, append +100.001 to the formula and a separate variable search/replace for 1(?=\d\d\.)|(?<=\.\d\d)1 which will eliminate the hundred and hundredth, leaving behind the placeholders.

This profile scans wifi SSIDs and places the phone in vibrate in an number of situations such as religious centers, schools, theaters, and the like. Of course, it will not help if the location does not have wifi or if the wifi name does not contain a listed keyword, but on balance this profile should reduce the number of embarrassing or annoying disruptions. view | save

This profile will automatically reject and log pre-defined callers. Three examples are provided in within its anonymous task: The first demonstrates the format for denying a specific number; the second demonstrates the format for blocking a specific extension (i.e. 222-333-XXXX); the third demonstrates syntax for combining rejection rules (preferable to numerous OR conditions for faster processing). Any blocked numbers are stored in a CSV file on the root directory. view | savemore ›

This task toggles and/or sets Samsung’s Always-on Display. Simply calling the task will perform the toggle: specifying “on” or “off” in either par variable will set AOD to that state regardless of the current state. view | save

This profile announces the profiles as they become active and avoids the alternative of putting a statement in every profile. If multiple profiles activate simultaneously they will be combined in a single grammatically correct announcement. Great for trouble­shooting profile bugs. view | save

This profile beeps and announces the time every hour. It can also be used for intra-days tasks such as re-initializing brightness and volumes each morning, activating IMAP push mail for business hours, and taking breaks. view | save

This “ignore cells” regex will cause the profile to remain active by disregarding building deadspots and transient misreads of tower IDs.

A windows batch file quickly enables Tasker to unlock all of the ADB wifi commands. Copy/paste these lines and save as “adb.bat”. Run the batch file after connecting Android devices to a windows machine.more ›
