Waking tablet from sleep via power being connected - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Using slimkat 4.4.4 on my nexus 7 car install and having an issue where tasker will not wake the tablet from sleep when power being connected. "Car turned on" Sometimes it turns on and sometimes it will not wake from sleep what would be the best way to get tasker to see the event of the power being connected.. reason I ask is because when it does not turn on via "power being connect" tasker is not showing the event even being launched...

[Q] Wake up from sleep using touchscreen

I am wondering if it is possible to configure my hermes to wake up from sleep using the touch screen.
After the phone went to sleep, by pressing the power button for example, I could just touch the device to wake it up. I don't think pocket dial is such a big deal, I could use a lock screen to prevent that.
Only solution I found is to configure windows not to turn the device off. But I think the battery will drain faster if the device can't go to sleep mode.
Any thoughts?

[Q] Bluetooth dies when in sleep mode

Hello I have android running on my HD2. The issue is when I have my headphones connected via bluetooth, when the phone goes to sleep it kills the bluetooth connection. If there a fix or a setting I'm missing? Any help would be great.
Thanks
You can work around by don't let your phone to sleep too early. Settings/Display/Screen timeout. Then press sleep when you done using bluetooth.

[Q] Auto Wifi-off during sleep?

Is there a setting (or standalone app), that will turn off wifi after a set amount of time after the screen goes off? I know the stock system had much worse battery life if wifi was kept on, and I'm assuming the same with CM7?
Yes I know I can just turn it off manually, but I'd rather it just turn itself off after say five minutes of me pressing the power button or it turning the screen off itself, then restart wifi when I turn it back on.
Thanks
The app Wifi Keep Alive can keep it on, or turn off when screen turns off unless plugged in. But it doesn't have a timer feature.
You don't need an app to turn off wifi when the screen is off with CM7. Just go into menu/ settings/ wireless & network/ wifi settings/ press menu/ advanced/ and then change the wifi sleep policy to whichever setting you'd like.
On the stock rom wifi will turn off when the screen turns off. I think it is actually annoying.

[Q] Can my N7 completely turn off when power is disconnected?

hi all
like many others iv put my nexus 7 into the dash of my car. i was wondering if there is an app or way for my nexus to turn itself off when i turn the car off. iv figured out how to make the device turn on when power is restored to the device but still not sure how to turn the device off.
also would anyone know why when the nexus turns on, it immediately mutes itself? it is connected via 3.5mm jack 100% of the time and tasker opens up power amp but other then that i don't know what might be causing it. any help is appreciated on both issues
cheers

If you have tasker installed, create a state which is dependant on battery power - as an exit task tell the tablet to wait for 10 seconds, then call the misc->reboot action with type shutdown to turn the tablet off. The wait 10 seconds it to prevent it powering off when you are cranking the car...
If you just want to turn the screen off, not power the whole tablet down, there's a tasker action Display->System Lock which will turn the screen off..
You could also use tasker to change the system volume for you if you needed as a workaround...
*edit* - BTW - the tasker reboot options don't gracefully reboot / shutdown, so if you have apps running, there's a chance that you may lose data. To do a 'graceful' reboot / shutdown, you are better off using the secure setting plugin...

Is deep sleep turning off bluetooth?

My Priv is paired with my Moto 360 and smart lock is on. When I wake in the morning I have to unlock my phone as if it unpaired or the phone rebooted over night. Is deep sleep shutting bluetooth? Did I miss a setting some where? Can this be dissabled? Suggestions ?

As far as I know, if you have not touched your phone for extended period of time, then smart lock will ask you to unlock the phone with your password/pattern...
I have it lock instantly, pebble is connected constantly and always receives notifications
