Keyguard not disabling on wifi. - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had tried to make my Keyguard go off when I'm at my home wifi, and it simply doesn't work. I'm using tasker and I'm using the same profile as I did on my SGS2 and that was perfect but the HTC One is a bit more trouble some with this setting. If anyone has done this and got it to work successfully please include it. Much appreciated to sharing your time.

I am having the same problem with tasker, I am gonna try older version of tasker!!

I just started using Tasker... and it really works funkily. I have used Tasker itself and Secure Settings, both, to disable the keyguard when I am connected to my WIFi... And sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes while I am using the phone and hit the Android Home button, it actually goes to the Pattern input lock screen.
I am using CM10 with Action Launcher on a Samsung Galaxy Nexus 16gb GSM

I use Dazzle Widget. Also allows me to move Wifi, GPS, Sound, Brightness, Bluetooth, etc all to the homescreen with a widget.. Works wonders
What ROM (if any) are you using? Anything 2.2+ should have the option to disable/enable data connection from the power menu. Otherwise, the extended controls widget worked well for me.
Widgetsoid works great for me.

I like several of the curvefish widgets. You should try the battery widget and the vibrate widget.
Thanks alot guys for the response, appreciated it very much..
I picked the widgetsoid2x, as what the above poster mentioned it runs really good and it does what it says in the description..
I Recommended that app..
Thanks again!

Upgraded to Gingerbread

Works great except just noticed that in the Kindle app while reading at night the back light on the menu buttons don't go out anymore. They used to and it is really bothering me when reading in yhe dark.
Any way to fix this?

This sorted it out for me.

I installed something called backlight switch, but it doesn't seem to do anything when I turn it On or Off.
EDIT: Oh so that needed root...
Found this Widget called Button Backlight but that does not seem to work either. It puts a tiny faint icon on my desktop that doesn't work.
Everything seems to need root access.

I didn't change a thing within the settings except change the device profile at the top to HTC Thunderbolt, I enabled wifi encryption so I could set a password for the wifi, make sure wifi driver reload is checked, make sure routing fix is checked, and make sure disable wake lock is checked... oh, and I changed battery temperature to farenheit so I could actually read the temp. Lol.
You should be set to go man.

Yea, I'm having the same problem.. pulling down to refresh the feed. Don't have any battery management apps installed either... No idea why it's acting funky (and yea, I have enabled update w/ wifi and data)
*edit*
After eying my One for over 1hr30, Blinkfeed finally updated! However, the update was a few minutes late (said it updated at 7:33, but did not carry 5 or 6 stories that were available at the same time (did a manual update to test)
Try waiting 1hr30 and let me know how it goes! Do wish it updated more often...
I found this on htc.com
Can I change the refresh schedule in HTC Blinkfeed?
QUESTION:
Can I change the refresh schedule in HTC Blinkfeed?
ANSWER:
The phone automatically refreshes every 2 hours on mobile data network or hourly on Wi-Fi. While the phone is charging and connected to Wi-Fi, it refreshes every 15 minutes.
You can refresh HTC BlinkFeed anytime by pulling down the top of the screen. Pull down to refresh is now part of the many gestures supported on HTC Sense 5, such as the Mail app.
why is it on the setting for blinkfeed, Auto refresh is disabled and locked only using wi-fi? I want to auto update it via mobile data. Any suggestions?

Temporary lock on smartlock doesn't work.

Hi XDA, I'm new to this, and I finally decided to use XDA since I've found lots of use out of it. In search for a good android support community I think I found one. I have a nexus 6 with smart lock enabled. Usually you can push the little lock icon on the lock screen to lock your phone with the pin even if you are at a trusted location or connected to a trusted device etc. I used to use this a lot, but it just stopped working one day. Unfortunately I don't know when or what could have caused it. I am not aware of any setting that toggles it and I don't get any error, just no response when I click it. Although I don't think its the cause, I am rooted, I have twrp, tasker, and titanium backup with nothing important frozen. I would really appreciate the help and would like to avoid wiping my phone to fix this. If that's what I need to do then so be it, its really annoying though!
Thanks,
Buggy687

Are you using a smart watch for smartlock? do you have tasker disabling bluetooth?
Thank you for your reply. No i do not have a smart watch (anymore) and I disabled tasker and restarted to see if it had caused any issues.
