#task #GetPowerampPlaylistDataDB
DESCRIPTION
This task was created based on a request from a Reddit user.

It will allow you to retrieve data from the playlists table, located inside the Poweramp database.

Notes:
- Click here to go to the Reddit thread.
- As it needs to access '/data/data/com.maxmpz.audioplayer/*' files, root is needed.
- You can use the task for other table queries if you want too. Just modify the table and columns where the calls are made.

#task #ToggleAndroidBackgroundProcessLimit
DESCRIPTION
This task will allow you to toggle in the background, and check the current process limit value for Android. Found under Developer Options.

Notes:
- The required permission is already integrated into Tasker, but you will need to grant it manually. Use the following cmd to do so: pm grant net.dinglisch.android.taskerm android.permission.SET_PROCESS_LIMIT.
- As the value will be restored after rebooting the device, you will need to automate it on device boot.
- Standard process limit (-1) could be 10, 15, 20, or whatever the Android manages in the background. In depends on your system.
- Even 1, 2, 3 or 4 are the only available options to be chosen from settings (Developer Options), you can specify any other value higher than 4 if want too. (But, doing so will make the custom values not to be reflected on its settings, only visible by this task)

CHANGELOG
- New: Added 'Device Boot' profile to automate the setting on boot.
- Other: Minor changes.

#task #RerouteAudio
DESCRIPTION
I have managed to reroute audio from one channel to another on Android, and using only Tasker. Therefore, it will no longer be necessary to use the well-known SoundAbout app, at least with the most common audio channel: Multimedia.

These are the available routings:
• Headphones > Speaker (and viceversa)
• Headphones > Bluetooth (and viceversa)
• Speaker > Bluetooth (and viceversa)

Notes:
- The values and the way how the task manages the audio routing were based on my current device and ROM. So, it could work or not for your device.

CHANGELOG
- New: Headphones > BT & BT > Headphones
- Other: Changed task name.
- Other: Other minor changes.

#task #TogglePixelStyle
DESCRIPTION
This task will allow you to switch between all your available Android themes (Styles) if using a Google Pixel device, Pixel Experience custom ROM, or any other custom ROM based on Pixel devices.

Notes:
- This task was based on a request from a Reddit user. (reference)
- The 'android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS' permission will have to be granted to tasker for non-rooted devices (guide), and 'android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS' too.
- All of the properties from every action were based on my current device and ROM, so I would suggest you to find and use yours instead. Just to avoid possible problems.
- Styles are managed by the Google Wallpaper app, but its settings could exists or not on the Secure Settings table (or maybe other), as custom ROM devs can make some redirection for the app to not allow it to save/load content from Settings tables. If it's your situation, try looking at '/data/data/.../shared_prefs/*' (root required) to try changing app's values by this way.

#task #CheckKeyguardStatus
DESCRIPTION
Here you have a little task that will help you to get more information than the 'KEYG' built-in variable, about the device lock status.

Quick information:
• Device Locked: The device is locked and asks for authentication in order to use it.
• Device Secure: The device is protected (service), regardless of if the protection mechanism is not currently required to use the device.
• Keyguard Locked: The device is locked and doesn't ask for authentication in order to use it.
• Keyguard Secure: The Lockscreen is enabled (service), regardless of if the device is locked or not.

The Device/Keyguard Locked represents the current state of the device, and Device/Keyguard Secure represents the general configuration of the device.
