now that you have removed the security by obscurity
can you please paste here the exact and full/complete log entry you got with Logcat Reader ?

AutoActivationService - received intent: com.sesamtechnology.sesamservice.ACTIVATE

It is easy to bypass 3rd party lock screens, all you need to do is boot in safe mode. Stay safe

it's a mystery , there is no such service defined

com.sesamtechnology.sesamservice.ACTIVATE

(I even installed the app and registered, maybe a service is started when you connect a lock, however it should still be defined in the app's manifest)

I think you have something different installed than the app you shared
maybe an older version or newer version ?? installed from the manufacturer's site ?

the app you shared from Play Store has package

sesam.technology.bold

it's related but totally different

Hmm, I am running the 1.8.0 beta. Changelog doesn't show related changes though.

I can temporarily share a lock with you if you like. However the notification will only "startup" if you are nearby (based on Bluetooth).

With the notification interaction I have achieved what I originally wanted (control lock activation from MacroDroid). Still interesting to learn how these apps work and how far interaction can go though!

mmm I installed 1.7.7
so you are on beta channel
and perhaps you got a very brand new thing

in this case the way to send intent is
choose Service from the drop-down
action = com.sesamtechnology.sesamservice.ACTIVATE
package = com.sesamtechnology.sesamservice (should be this)

The locks have an ID though. This is showing in the notification as "key". The notification showed: 0|sesam.technology.bold|23498|null|10563 (I changed the numbers, rest is same).

I tried your suggestion before, didn't work unfortunately. Attached a screenshot from logcat.

For now I am ready to give up though, since I can rely on the persistent notifications and simply have MacroDroid click the "button". Works well enough.

Much appreciate all input! Will update here if I continue my attempts.

the extra codes go usually in the extra fields
unfortunately you need to experiment

but why don't you ask the manufacturer directly ? they should help you , it's not so secret info
and tell them to make their app compatible with launch shortcut and tasker plugin 😀

I did ask them, no response yet. That said, technically things work for me interacting with the notification for now. Also thought it would/should be easier to "capture" and "replay" random app intents/events .. seems not. :)

Much appreciate all responses!!
