I was initially going to ask for some help, but I realized why my Task was behaving the way it was and I think I have a fix.
So instead, why don't we make this a Tasker sharing slash help thread?
I'll share what I have set up so far. My apps include Tasker, Secure Settings, and AutoLocation.
I have at home and away from home profiles (based on wifi). When I'm away from home, bluetooth is turned off and my geofence monitor is turned on. Vice versa when I arrive. Bluetooth because the only device I connect to is a speaker at home.
I have school and work geofences. When I'm inside them, my media and ringer volumes are saved away and then set to zero. They are restored when I leave.
I use Nova Launcher and have the double tap gesture assigned to a system lock task. The Secure Settings system lock is much more reliable than Tasker's.
When I go to church on Sundays, my phone silences itself based on day of the week and wifi connection.
I'm currently working on a task that shows a dialog box whenever I plug into the headphone jack. There are two buttons that set the volume accordingly for earbuds or something else like my cassette adapter.
That last task is where I was having an issue. Android keeps track of headphone and non-headphone media volume on its own. I was meddling with it and getting weird results. Granted, if I could access that volume easily, I'd still mess with it. I'm still working on it.
What do ATers have going for them?
