Hi all,
I am new to automagic but I've set up some simple flows that work great, spent some time setting up some longer flows that I had to troubleshoot for some time to get working, but did finally get it working.
Specifically, I'm having trouble getting a couple of my flows to execute fully when my car bluetooth connects or disconnects.
When my care bluetooth connects I have it set to change screen brightness, disable lock pattern, turn on GPS, turn off wifi, set audio volume to max, start my music, launch an app "wave control", and then ask whether to launch Waze or not, all in one flow with multiple conditions. Sometimes, it will do all of these things flawlessly. Others, it won't. Recently, I noticed it got to launching my music then did nothing else. And nothing is reported as an error or looks like a problem in the log. I am really confused as to what is going on but I was hoping someone out there may have an answer.
I'm on Nexus 5 running 4.4.2 rooted.
Flows not completing execution

Re: Flows not completing execution
Hi,
Very hard to say without the knowing the flow structure. Perhaps some condition is 'false' in some cases and the flow has no actions on the 'false' branch of the condition and the flow therefore stops.
What's the last action/condition that appears in the log when the flow is not executed completely? (Please ensure to remove the log-filter when '(filtered)' is written in title of the log.)
Please also post the flow here or send the flow to me by mail if it contains personal information (info@automagic4android.com).

Martin

Re: Flows not completing execution
Thank you for your response Martin.
I think I figured it out, and it had nothing to do with the flow in question. It appears my flow when my bluetooth disconnects was not executing because I had another flow to disable bluetooth when the power cord was unplugged from the phone. Once you told me to get rid of the filter on the log, which I did not realize was there, I was able to see that my bluetooth disconnect flow was executing the next time that bluetooth was enabled, and overlapped with my bluetooth connect flow. I made some changes and it appears to be completely fixed. Loving the app. Thank you so much for your interest in helping me! The information you provided in your response was enough to enable me to fix the problem!
