Hi folks. Well I am loving the switch from IOS to Android. The flexibility to root and get into everything on the phone is great.
I am also loving Tasker. However, I am still very low on the learning curve with the app. I am amazed at some of the forum threads I read about such cool routines that people have developed using Tasker.
My needs for the product at this point are still very basic. Nonetheless I still have trouble getting some things to trigger.
My current issue is this: I use Bluetooth two ways; connected to a power source and not connected to a power source. I want the phone set up differently depending on whether its plugged in or not when I'm in the car (not docked, just plugged in, like into a cigarette lighter connector).
So I set up a Tasker profile which is supposed to trigger when 1) Bluetooth is connected to my car stereo system, and 2) Power is connected (I started using AC setting and then changed it to ANY).
No matter what I do the profile never triggers. I can't think of anything else to try. I know that when I get into the car, it can take a minute or two for the bluetooth to connect. In the meanwhile I have plugged the phone into the cigarette lighter port. I have even tried disabling Tasker and reenabling it to see if it would trigger once I knew the bluetooth was connected the the power was connected and the profile still didn't connect. It seems so simple yet I can't seem to get it to work.
I am using a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4. Can someone please take the time to help me understand what I could be doing wrong? I would appreciate it so much.
Second quick question: It seems to me that Tasker doesn't have a feature for compount triggers using 'OR' instead of 'AND'. Am I missing something?
Please help me. It's the only way I will ever be able to stop being a newbie with Tasker and will be able to help other people in the forums.
Thanks all ............. Rob
