@Dimlos, thanks for your suggestion. It worked perfectly. I had to tweak the parameters a bit to get it working. I agree with @Dimlos. I was using the Expand/collapse status bar too. It worked on Android 13. Suddenly it stopped working on Android 14! So much for downward compatibility in...

Didn't get any response to my query. Perhaps I was not clear in my problem statement. Rewording my problem below. 01. I have a macro which takes input from the user using the [User prompt] action. There are bunch of other actions that work on the user input. 02. To trigger this macro, I am...

I am using a button on the Button Bar to trigger a macro. The macro among other things also displays a popup message. To access the button bar, I have to pull the notification drawer down. This worked well when I was on Android 13, with the popup message getting displayed on the pulled down...

@Dev777 Thanks. Got it working for video calls too.

Hopefully it works too. BTW, do the WhatsApp notifications work differently for video calls? If I substitute video for voice to the macro does not work.

Thanks. Will check it out.

Gosh! @Dev777, @Dm114, you guys are way ahead of me in terms of understanding MacroDroid. @Dev777 based on your inputs, I have modified the macro keeping the same structure but incorporating additional check for the WhatsApp number. Hope that will work. Unfortunately, I have not been able to...

@Dev777 the macro works. I have also created a macro based on the macro written by @Dm114 for voice calls and taking the triggers from your macro for the WhatsApp calls. This also works! I am attaching the macro for your comments. Appreciate the inputs given by both of you. @Dm114 thanks for...

Based on your inputs and browsing the forum I have written a macro to do the same for WhatsApp calls. Unfortunately does not work. 😔 I am attaching the macro for your information. Would appreciate if you can give me your inputs. BTW, in the macro above you have set up a Call Active trigger...

Thanks, will try my hand. Will come back here in case I land in trouble.

@Dm114 That worked like charm! An elegant solution than what I could have ever done myself. Will the same approach work for WhatsApp calls too? Because many times she calls me on WhatsApp.

@Dm114 Thanks. Based on your inputs and my limited (very!) knowledge of MacroDroid, I have written a macro which unfortunately has many problems as follows: 01. The sound for the incoming ring continues playing even after I pick up the phone or reject the call. 02. Some times the sound keeps...

I have a very specific requirement. When I set my Do Not Disturb mode to alarms only the phone does not ring for any incoming calls. However, I would like to the phone to ring for a VIP (aka my wife's number!) even in this mode. The phone should ring for a maximum of 20 seconds with a specific...

It does. However, I would prefer your method. Much cleaner and direct. The ADB method forces me to keep the Wireless Debugging option on all the time. A security hazard

Thanks again. I tried the following command: System Setting [system] screen_off_timeout = 30000 Is this the right command? It didn't work. I am attaching the log file. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your inputs. I am trying to use the following command to set screen timeout to 5 minutes: ADB Shell Command local host:5555 settings put system screen_off_timeout:30000 After reading the forum posts I came to know that since my phone is not ripped, I need run the adb tcpip 5555...

I am on Android 13 running on realme Narzo 50 Pro 5G. I am using Macrodroid to set different screen time out values based on the app launched. I ask using the MD Helper file and the ADB Tasker plugin by using the following command: ADB Shell Command local host:5555 settings put system...

Unfortunately that does not work too. :(

I am so frustrated. Following the instructions on dontkillmyapp.com got the macro to set the screen time out to a specific value depending on the app, working. Now suddenly it stopped. No matter what app is launched, the screen dims after the default screen time out is over. The system log shows...

Another thing. I have granted WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS to only macrodrod and not to the helper application. Do I need to grant to the helper application too? Any other permission to be granted to these two applications?
