Tasker - Galaxy S4 Edition

Thanks very much for your advice....I can now see the conflict and overlap between profiles.
Tasker forgets my changes 
So I made some changes yesterday to update my %MYMODE variable, tested it and was working as desired. Today I noticed it wasn't working as expected so I looked at the task and the changes I made yesterday are gone (back to task from 2 days ago). I have noticed this happens frequently for me when I make changes. Eventually the changes stick but I don't understand why it keeps losing changes I make. I have searched for a fix previously without much luck. Anyone else have this problem, how to fix????

Or you could switch on your BT at 6 and if not connected by 8.10 switch it off.
You could also use your Home Wifi as a guide. If between 6.00 and 8.10 WiFi disconnected, switch on bluetooth.
My Tasker is not able to read incoming SMS... i have set it to print the content of %SMSRB as a toast (flash) when an incomming message is received. But it doesnt even detect that an sms was received. And %SMSRB is always blank... anybody can help??
Just to test, i have done the following:
New Profile -> event -> Phone Received Text -> any ... and associated it with:
New Task -> Alert -> Flash -> "SMS Received"
It does not work... any ideas why???

I want to delete telegram image folder directory
because when i use telegram, photos automatically download to that directory and it makes my phone has less free space.
So i want to make a profile, to delete it once a day.
But when i set a profile to delete that directory it says directory is not empty and it doesnt delete the files,
in advance, i want to delete non-empty directory using Tasker,
Can anyone help?

Thank you.
I guess that this would work :
1. + -> State -> Display -> Display State -> Set to Off
2. New task : Name it 3G-Off -> + -> Mobile Data -> Set to Off
3. Add Exit task -> Name it 3G-On -> + -> Mobile Data -> Set to On
If this didn't worked then you should maybe try this :
Profile is working.

Despite being old, it seemed like this was an appropriate thread to ask this in, rather than starting a new one.
I'm using a SGH-I337 (AT&T-branded S4) on 5.0.1 Lollipop. Can I use Tasker to change a single setting within the stock messaging app? Specifically, I want it to toggle vibrate off under notification settings, when a specific bluetooth device (my brand new semi-smartwatch) is connected; this way, the phone still gets the notification and sounds off when I get a text, but it doesn't vibrate (my watch will do that instead).
I just started using Tasker today btw so I'm a complete noob at this stuff.

So here we go with my profiles :

How-To :
0. Disable Auto-Brightness
1. Creat a new "State" (+)
2a. Select "Sensor"
2b. Select "Light level"
2c. FROM xx TO xx (here it depends on you NOTE : FROM value must be less the TO )
2d. Personally : From 90 to 100 *
3. It will propose you to creat a new task : Name it Outdoor light and click on the check icon
4a. Add a new action (+) -> Display -> Display Brightness -> Go Max (255) and let the "Immediate Effect" Checked *
4b. Now go back the profiles menu and keep holding on "Outdoor light" so you can add an exit task
5. Add an exit task : Name it Indoor Light and click on the check icon
6. + -> Display -> Display Brightness -> 45 (Here put the value that fit you)

It's about automating your phone... I agree that just leaving wifi, bluetooth etc on wouldn't eat up that much battery.
But muting sound when entering work, start up car app when in car, turn down brightness at night, auto Block calls from Mother in Law and so on and so on.
Thats where the power of this app is. It's only your creativity that sets the limits...
And yes... It's made for lazy People... But so was the wheel...
