Enable/disable mobile data fixed. Working also in Android 12. Fix will be in next version.

I cannot grant G1 permission. What do I do wrong?

d:\Android\platform-tools>adb shell pm grant sk.heinrichg.phoneprofilesplus android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

Exception occurred while executing:

Not "adb shell pm grant sk.heinrichg.phoneprofilesplus" but "adb shell pm grant sk.henrichg.phoneprofilesplus"
"henrichg", not "heinrichg". :-D

Thank you!

Hi all, I'm using this command but in command prompt I'm getting such response:

/sbin/sh: pm: not found

Any ideas how to solve this?

 

[henrichg]

1. You must call command in PC, not mobile. Mobile must be connected to PC with USB.
2. Check if mobile is connected with command (in PC) "adb devices".
3. You must, in mobile, enable "Developer options " and in it "USB debuging".

1. I did it from PC and mobile was connected via USB (device in recovery mode)
2. I checked that exactly in this way (mobile was listed in CMD Prompt)
3. have been done

 

[henrichg]

Why in recoveri mode? Device must be in normal mode.

That was the issue. Solved and thx

I have issue with the location sensor, I set some locations for shifting profiles, but the sensor not working most of the time, I try to reposition but there is no map showing during the process.

One more thing, I would like to see if it is possible to have the roaming be a factor of profile changing, since I move between China and Hong Kong weekly.

"I have issue with the location sensor, I set some locations for shifting profiles, but the sensor not working most of the time, I try to reposition but there is no map showing during the process.":

Since PPP version 4.3, used is Android Location API, not Google Play services.
Latest PPP version is 5.1.3. If your version is not latest, upgrade: For this read:

1. Location permission must be granted for PPP.
2. Battery optimization must be set to "Not optimized" for PPP.
3. Location must be enabled in device Settings.
4. Enable W-Fi, mobile data in device. Location in Android uses it, when GPS is not detected (especially for indoor location). But maybe is problem in China, Hong Kong. Maybe loaction is not associated with Wi-Fi SSID, mobile data cells.
5. Location scanning in PPP Settings must be enabled. Location sensor uses this scanning.
6. If in your actual location is not Wi-Fi, mobile data (or location is not associated, look point 4), then use GPS. In PPP Location scanning settings enable "Use GPS when not in Power save mode". But usage of GPS consume battery. :-(

This is not implemented. I can looking on it. Maybe it is possible:

roaming detection in android

I'm trying to detect when the roaming activation occurs. So far I've used the following piece of code, but because I haven't been able to test it I am unaware of it's correctness TelephonyManager

Henrich, thank you so much for your continued development and open source on this app, which is a great alternative to the deprecated apps Llama and Automagic!
I use PPP mainly for sound/volume profiles and quite often I quickly have to activate a profile via the Activator but without the need to set a duration. When not setting a duration in the Activator, the OK button is disabled. In this case I use the Seconds slider, set it to a few seconds and tap OK. Is this unusual or is there a better way to quickly activate a profile without worrying about the duration?
Maybe I could use the Restart button, but I guess then I would have to cover all conditional cases so that the right profile gets activated, and I think this is hardly possible (e.g. I ride my bike to work and I expect an important call so I activate the Loud profile but I don't want to specify a duration because I don't know how many minutes I'm on my bike, and then when I arrive at work, my Wi-Fi based work profile should kick in).
So if there is no other way than using the Seconds slider, would it be possible to enable the OK button, even if no duration is specified? Or to add configurable fixed duration buttons to the Activator, e.g. for often used durations like 1 second (my use case above), 7 hours (Mute profile duration during sleep)?

 

[henrichg]

If in profile is configured "Ask for duration", profile activation opens dialog "Duration - Profile: profile". And in this dialog is possible to activate profile without set duration. For this exists, at bottom left, button "Without duration", in standard dialog button section (PPP version 6.0.1) (used is "neutral" button type for this). In older versions this button was at bottom center of dialog, above of standard dialog buttons.

 

[dhrv]

Thanks for the quick response, Henrich Yes, the in the profile I can disable "ask for duration", but then it is always disabled, and sometimes I want the profiles to stay enabled for a few hours. Another idea would be to rename the existing "Wthout duration" button to "Infinite duration" and add a new button withn "No duration". But since I'm the only one with that wish, how do others quickly switch their profiles without having to touch the slider? I'm still a fan of configurable duration buttons, because I quite often use 1 second, 7 hours and 24 hours.

 

[henrichg]

No, no, no. Do not disable "Ask for duration", keep it enabled and profile activation will ask for duration. And in dialog for ask, is button "Without duration". "Without duration" do not set profile activation duration.
Your "Infinite duration" = button "Without duration". This activate profile with duration = 00:00:00 = without duration.
Each user must set duration (using sliders or write duration, when he click duration value text) when he wants to activate profile with duration.
If "Ask for duration" is disabled, duration must be configured in profile parameters. And without change it in parameters is not possible to change duration = duration is static.
For this reason is added "Ask for duration". This allows to change duration at profile activation = duration is "dynamic".
If you want "duration profiles", (configure several durations and display it in "Ask for duraton" dialog as buttons), then sorry, PPP do not support this.

 

[dhrv]

Ok good, I understand everything you are saying about the different duration settings PPP offers right now. This is why I asked for what you call "duration profiles" (good name). Maybe in some future version this could be implemented (I'm a developer myself, but not for Android apps, so this would be a nice personal project for myself for the winter time )

 

[henrichg]

Only current solution for you (without "duration profiles") is duplicating profile, in each duplication disable "Ask for duration" and configure duration in its parameters = static duration. And activate profile with duration, which you want.

 

[henrichg]

"duration profiles" added as suggestion. Maybe will be implemented in winter time .

 

[dhrv]

Duplication is a viable option for now, thanks Also for considering an implementation!

Hello,
first of all thank you for this super app.
I have now switched to a Xiaomi 11 Ultra and have the following problem:
I want a profile to change when it is logged into a certain WLAN.
Unfortunately, no WLAN networks are displayed to me, although I am logged in.
Any idea?
