[PROJECT] QR WiFi Connect - Connect to WiFi networks and create your own codes v1.1

DESCRIPTION
This project will help you to automatically connect to a WiFi network by scanning its pre-generated QR code. But also, you will be able to generate your own codes too!

To add the network to your device and connect to it is as simple as pointing the rear camera to the QR code and Tasker will do the rest for you.

Notes:
- Thanks to @GlitchYou for providing the base code that the project was built from. (Here you can find the project where the code was taken from)
- To use this project you will need the AutoBarcode plugin.
- To generate codes, an active internet connection is required.
- Generated codes are locally saved to /storage/emulated/0/Download. (Actually renamed and moved from the original one: /storage/emulated/0/AutoBarcode)

CHANGELOG
- New: Share QR code after creation.
- Fix: QR code would be generated (with errors) when text fields remained in blank.
- Fix: Little error (not really important) on the generated coded code for QR format.
- Other: Added missing credits for the user who provided the original code for adding networks to Android, very sorry. (thanks @GlitchYou)

[PROJECT] Battery Monitor v1.2

DESCRIPTION
Here you have a small project to be aware of the status of your battery at the time of charging.

This is the info you will know in real time:
• Temperature (ÂșC)
• Watts (W)
• Voltage (V)
• Charge current (mA)
• Accumulated capacity (mAh)
• Connection type (AC, USB, Wireless)
• Estimated total charging time

Notes:
- Thanks to @Valdorg for helping on building the project, and @cruzer_blaze2, @MeloProfessional for helping on testing/debugging.
- There's another very similar version of the project from our well known buddy (@MeloProfessional) that you can check on his TSB channel: Go!
- At the time of connection, will be normal that some of the values, during the first seconds or perhaps minutes, may not appear. That's because Tasker must wait for the intent to collect all the corresponding data.
- If you don't know the battery design capacity of your device you can get it using this profile.
- Except for 'Watts (W)', the rest of the values will be gotten without root. But, if non-root fails for whatever reason, root will be used instead.
- A debug task (Debug Task) is included in case the user has problems with erroneous values or not shown. Follow the instructions inside it to know how to use it.

CHANGELOG
- New: Temperature mode selection (°C/°F). (configure it from 'Setup' task)
- New: Debug task (separated from the project) to send logs to me (dev of the project), if it fails reading some of the values. (read notes about it)
- Fix: Unset values due to non-existent files/sources now won't prevent the rest of values not to be updated.

[PROJECT] Tasker Fingerprint Protection v1.0

DESCRIPTION
This is a project that I created based on a request from a user on the Tasker Feature Requests website.
Basically, it is about being able to unlock Tasker access through the biometric sensor, using Tasker himself. A different way than the built-in one (PIN).

This project includes an Initial Setup task that needs to be executed when it is imported from TaskerNet
(It can be deleted after imported)

This is only a temporary solution, and ONLY as a demonstration.
If you want to protect access with this method, it is strongly recommended to use a compatible app, or wait for the developer to incorporate such function officially.

Notes:
- You can check the original support ticket here.
- Two are the versions available to download, depending on the trigger you wanna use. I recommend using the 'Logcat Trigger', much faster.
- As logcat components and filters may change from device to device, here you have a compatibility list. If you don't find the right for your device, contact us through the TPC chat groups.

[PROJECT] Battery Monitor v1.1

DESCRIPTION
Here you have a small project to be aware of the status of your battery at the time of charging. And it works without root, since it doesn't need to read raw values directly from the files located in' /sys/class/power_supply'.

This is the info you will know in real time:
• Temperature (ÂșC)
• Watts (W) (*)
• Voltage (V)
• Charge current (mA)
• Accumulated capacity (mAh)
• Connection type (AC, USB, Wireless)
• Estimated total charging time

Notes:
- Thanks to @Valdorg for helping on building the project, and @cruzer_blaze2, @MeloProfessional for helping on testing/debugging.
- There's another very similar version of the project from our well known buddy (@MeloProfessional) that you can check on his TSB channel: Go!
- At the time of connection, will be normal that some of the values, during the first seconds or perhaps minutes, may not appear. That's because Tasker must wait for the intent to collect all the corresponding data.
- If you don't know the battery design capacity of your device you can get it using this profile.
- (*) To get that info, the device has to be rooted.

[TASK] Get Multimedia Metadata (JF) v1.1

DESCRIPTION
It will allow you to retrieve a lot of information regarding incrusted metadata from audio, image and video files.

You can use it in the following ways:
· To analize a file from another task, using '%(par#)' variable to send the path of it.
· To get info about playing sound with the new 'Music Track Changed' profile event, providing the '%(mt_track)' variable, and getting the list of files from main directory. Then, using the '#?*%(mt_track)*' expression, will help finding the correct path of the file.
· And many more... ;)

Notes:
- To know more about every method, you can go here.

[PROJECT] Fingerprint Demo Actions v1.2

DESCRIPTION
As per user requests, I have decided to create this little project to show you some examples of how to use the biometric sensor of your device (if available) to perform different actions.

These are the things you will learn...
• Finger Touch (any): Perform customized actions depending on which finger has touched the sensor. (*)
• Finger (down) [1] + (up): Calculate elapsed time between finger (down) and finger (up), so you can perform long press actions.
• Finger (down) [2]: Double tap gestures (or more).
• Finger (down) [3] + Screen (unlock): React to specific unlock attempts (failed). (*)
• Finger (down) [4]: React to authentication success. (unlocked) (*)
• Finger (down) [5]: Get authentication parameters, like: coverage, quality and average score. (*)

This project does not contain predefined actions that execute certain applications, nor does it carry out specific actions. What is included are generic actions as a demonstration, which can then be extrapolated (idea) to other projects.

Notes:
- The project uses the 'Logcat Entry' action, added in Tasker v5.9.beta8.
- To use it just toggle according profile(s) from the list above.
- There are several ways to make the profile detect the decided filter: applying regex expressions, filtering by specific words/terms, or searching for matching elements from within the associated task by reading the %(lc_text) var.
- (*) The device needs to be locked (Lockscreen).
- IDs are unique for each device, and also components/services can vary from device to device. Therefore, I recommend you not to take these components/filters that I have used in the project as them are. If they work, perfect! But if not, you should look for the corresponding ones for your device. But at least you will have a base to start.
- As logcat components and filters may change from device to device, here you have a compatibility list. If you don't find the right for your device, contact us through the TPC chat groups.

[TASK] Toggle Android's Background Process Limit v1.2

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:
- Even the permission is now integrated into Tasker's AndroidManifest file, you will need to manually grant it. 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, create a 'Device Boot' profile event to automate it.

[PROFILE] Battery Design Capacity Checker v1.0

DESCRIPTION
If you don't know the capacity of your battery, this profile will tell you that. The total detected capacity will be shown in a notification (statusbar) when the phone gets fully charged.

Notes:
- The profile is configured to react when the device is fully charged (specific intent sent), not just when 100% appears.
- The final result in mAh is just approximate, so keep it in mine.
- If the device is rooted, you can get the official value running the following command in a Shell action: 'cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charge_full_design'.

[PROJECT] Current App Activity v1.4

DESCRIPTION
This project will allow you to show the app name, package name and class name of current activity. And in real time!

Notes:
- The project uses the %(WIN) variable, so it requires to have the 'App Check Method' set as 'Accessibility' to work well, if using the root version. (only if launching it from 'Start' task, not applicable with 'Start (loop)')
- If you don't mind switching App Check Method manually every time you want to use the project, it's OK. But, an action is included inside 'Setup' task, that will switch such option automatically for you.
- Logcat Entry profile is set for the non-root version, but you can change the detection method by %(WIN) var if you wish.
- As logcat components and filters may change from device to device, here you have a compatibility list. If you don't find the right for your device, contact us through the TPC chat groups.
