Vibration as input/event - Tasker Tips & Tricks

Hi guys! Is there a way to make the vibration of the phone (no UI changes or text notification, just vibration) an event/input? Thanks :cyclops:

Uhh....that sounds weird. Can you give a bit more information. What specific thing is causing your phone to vibrate in the first place that you want Tasker to respond to?

Pokemon go app When a pokemon appear, the phone vibrate. I would like to use it as an event to make my smartwatch notify it to me.

Ahah I know I know it may sounds stupid, but it's just a way of playing it without staying watching the screen all the time while walking. I thought to use tasker to do that but I can't find a way to use that vibration as an input, there're no other notifications.

Ahh.....OK. If that is the case, I dunno.... There is probably a real hacky way to do it with shell script and root or something....but nothing straight forward

Does it only vibrate, or is there a notification?

Hmm... I'm not sure if this would work, but have you tried notification listener from play store? It's a tasker plug in. It might be enough that the vibration came from the game to trigger...

you can try this app :

I think he wants to extend the period of time of when the notification LED is blinking when a new SMS/ missed call is waiting. I read that it doesn't blink until you actually look at the SMS or look at the list of missing calls, but stops after a certain interval.
I hope this is clearer... don't have an answer though

Try "Missed Reminder" for Calls/SMS/Gmail.

I use this program too. Highly recommended.
Also "Handcent SMS" will allow custom LED notifications and also happens to be the BEST SMS handling app out there with tons of features (and free)
I bought "Tasker" yesterday.
There you might be able to create a script with a LED-Loop if notifications from App XY or all are received. Doesnt work at all this time, but its my fault.

i feel no restrictions in accupower since useing Tasker! If you leave the DisplayOffCheckSettings to 600 secs, i think there will be no problems. Try it out !
is there the possibility to change led color?
there's only red and green?
No chance
Maybe if the Device is rooted. We'll see soon

lol,, good way,, I may try it
or there is a feature of stock ROM or an app im not sure, anyway its called 'fake call'
just set that as an alarm, your phone will ring until picked up (unless you have voice-mail) you can even record your own message for when you pick up, not that you will need to do that, as you know exactly who is ringin and what they are saying lol.
but it should ring longer than your alarm.

To disable OTA update service

Hello,
I ve found a way to disable system update service.
1. Download disable service from the play store.
2. Disable All thread under Device update
3. Disable SystemUpdateService under Google Play services

vandoor
it worked!
I just followed the steps and the update notification in my nexus 5 is gone!
thanks a lot!
If you just want to remove the notification you can long press the notification, go to App Info and uncheck Notifications.

First of all the thread is a little old, and secondly all that does it remove notifications for that, it still downloads in the background and you might miss other important notifications.

If I recall I believe I read somewhere years ago that said if you rename the ..fota.apk in system/apps it will not check for a system update? Perhaps I am mistaken...its been a couple years.

Keep in mind that doing it that way only hides the notification.
It will still download, and it WILL wakelock to do so.

I am using this to disable the OTA notification for Lollipop. It eliminates the notification but the update is still available under About Phone/System Updates, and it requires touching "Download" to download. So, why do you think the OTA will still occur?

I'm saying that it will just hide all system notifications, NOT get rid of the OTA. You'll miss other system notifications if you do get any and the OTA will still be waiting.

So what other options are there? I downloaded 'Disable Service' from Play Store, unchecked the three everyone has been suggesting, but those three would then wakelock my phone 100% of the time.
Thanks for the heads up OP!

If you check app info you will notice you are disabling notifications for Google play services app. This app has nothing in common with standard android system notifications so they will continue to work. Question is, what other notifications does play services app has that could be considered important to the user.

I guess the best way is change the notification to silent and then turn it back on

Personally I just have no sound in emails. I am checking them all the time either way, so when I don't want to be annoyed silent notification does the job. (I receive circa 800 emails on a daily basis, so I would go mad if it made a sound every single time)
