This app allows you to setup schedules to switch profiles. This will only work on a ROM that has a profile manager (e.g. CyanogenMod 9 & 10 - see http://cyanogenmod.org). Features also include resetting the profile when headphones are pluged/unplugged and the ability to set a once-off 'timed profile' (similar to the old Nokias).
You can download the APK at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1856022 (and leave comments).
Create schedules for when you want your phone to automatically change profiles. To create a schedule, chose "New schedule" in the menu. Choose the profile you want to switch, the time of day (24 hour clock) and which days of the week. For example: Imagine you have profiles Work, Home and Night. You could have the following schedules.
- Work @ 08:00 on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday & Friday
- Home @ 10:30 on Saturday & Sunday
- Home @ 17:30 on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday & Friday
- Night @ 23:30 on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday
In order to compile you will need the JAR files that contain android.app.IProfileManager and android.app.ProfileManager. Since these are only in the CyanogenMod ROM, you will need to compile them from the CyanogenMod sources (they will be under android/system/out/target/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/framework_intermediates/).
It may be possible to extract the jar file from your phone (assuming you are running CyanogenMod). Try extracting classes.dex from /system/framework/framework.jar. (I haven't tried this but I reckon it would work)
When upgrading (after a wipe), the profiles settings will be lost. I don't know of a way to backup/restore them from within CyanogenMod.If you have a backup of the XML file (/system/etc/profiles.xml or /data/system/profiles.xml in CM10.1.2) that contains the profiles settings, you can restore it using abd. However the ring tones will be won't be pointing to the correct tones because it uses the MediaStore internal URI (eg content://media/internal/audio/media/92). These internal URI change with each install. You will have to manually change the ringtones of each profile after copying.
