Run Shell in Tasker (40+ run shell commands)

[Matt]

Hi,

Secure Settings is spotty at best on Android6.0 MM which made me dig more into the run shell commands I could use. And since I hate exploring the  topic more than once, I made topic with over 40 commands in shell, and some explanations on how to look for settings etc.

I hope I save you trouble off big amount of googling I went through to find what I found! 

Happy tasking.

Is it possible to run shell commands without root? I tried to run a simple test, but %val is never set:

Test

A1: Run Shell [
Command:settings list system
Timeout (Seconds):0
Use Root:Off
Store Output In:%val ]

A2: Flash [
Text:%val
Long:Off ]

I  don't own an unrooted device right now, so I'm unable to confirm this. The majority of the shell commands will ask for the root permissions however. My bet is this could be the case.
