Is there a plugin that can check speed? maybe via the gsensor? I'd like to setup a situation where if it detects im moving faster than 10mph, it should turn on the bluetooth. Also, is the 10 minute check adjustable?

there isn't a plugin that check device speed.
I thinks that for this plugin the gsensor is useless... but it should be done in another way

.

I suppose that you can't use a dock station (like Nexus One car dock) that automatically enable bluetooth...

it should be a good idea, I will develop it if another user need that.

10 minute check will be configurable in the next version

Any plans regarding a "start app" / "kill app" plugin?

"Start app" is in plan, but "kill app" not.

the life cycle of android application is an android scheduler job.
I can start an application but killer an app is not in my plan.
Perhaps I think that "task killer app" is useless, so I will not implement this plugin.

But the community can

Starting an app is good enough. The only reason I was wondering about the kill part was to have Skype shut down the moment I turn my Wifi off.

italian localization and some optimizations inside!

skype is a battery drain

i can confirm that. skype abuses the sensors which leads to massive battery drain.

I know! That's why I had the idea for a Modus Operandi set up that goes like this:

On:
Location = home
& Battery >= 50% (or even better: Battery = charging)
then
Wifi = on
Skype = launch

Off:
Location != home
or Battery < 50%
then
Wifi = off
Skype = kill

That way I'd have an automated set up that let's Skype only run while I'm within Wifi range and the battery level is good, thus ensuring it's not sucking my battery empty.

Obviously, this would require a "kill app" plugin.

In the same Situation, all Conditions check logic is in "AND".
If you want and OR check logic for conditions, you can create 2 Situation

.

I don't want to write a Plugin that do the same work that android scheduler do.

If an application drain too much battery life... you should uninstall it and search for an alternative app

Sorry if I wasn't clear, those are 2 situations: 1st is "On", 2nd is "Off".

As for Skype, I'd love to use an alternative, if only there was a viable one. I had tried Nimbuzz and Fring and both produce waaaaay too much lag to do any serious phone calls. And while I'm at home, near the power plug, I really don't care whether Skype uses too much battery or not. I'm simply not using it while on the road.

But anyway, looking forward to that "launch app" plugin.

It's clear but in your "Off" Situation, you have write 2 conditions in or logic. It's not possible and this case is possible by create 2 situation.

Any way for the localization plugin to switch to GPS if no network signal? I always have GPS on.

What I am trying to do is automate my wifes phone. Where she works has no network signal but does have access to wifi. So I would like it to turn on airplane mode (so phone isn't constantly searching for a non existent network) and turn on wifi.

Is this currently possible?

azatoth · Jan 1, 2011

Localization pluin with GPS is in developing ;-).

Currently, this plugin has 1.5km radius. With this radius, MO don 't recognize location before you lost network segnal?

If I use outside radius setting it works good when she is going to work but if not going to work but going somewhere else then I would have to have multiple profiles which I am trying to avoid. A for work, home, and other is kinda what i'm trying to achieve. I'll just be patient and wait for the update. Thanks for a good program.

ok, so with inside radius and work location set will not recognize position before lost segnal...

At this time you can do that with 'time plugin' and waiting gps localization

Hi Users!

I need your help for a feature that I think to implement.

If I say you that Modus Operandi 1.0 will be able to manage automatic situation or manual profile (in alternative) and can manage situation that will be always checked for security reason?

In new "Manage" there will be 3 tab (Situation, Profile, Security) and you can choise Automatic or Manual Mode, that respectively use Situation or Profile tab. Situation inside Security will always be checked.

I will create condition plugin for check SIM inserted inside device and action plugin for lock device, send sms and/or email with device position on a configurable phone number and more...

So you can use MO for automatic or manual manage your device settings (as you need) and also for improve security in a single, powerful application.

What do you think about this

?

PS: don't worry.... location plugin will be updated with GPS-based location service first

Can you add a plug in based on hardware connected to phone like Tasker? For instance, when 3.5mm stereo jack plugged in, I want a list of apps to appear. Same thing for USB connections.

The app looks promising.
