Airplane mode while screen is locked

Motorola Stylus G 2022 - Android 13

I have pretty much followed the FAQ and Dontkillmyapp suggestions. Tasker works fine while the screen is on. But as soon as it locks I have a problem. I set up a simple task of turning off Airplane Mode, waiting 10 seconds, then turning Airplane Mode back on and exiting. It does this every 2 minutes. With the screen off (and locked) it will turn off Airplane Mode but doesn't turn it back on. So when I turn on my screen I see my cell connection is on. So with the screen off, Tasker is able to disable AP Mode but cannot enable it. I used the Run Log feature to monitor and according to Tasker, it completed the task. Any more suggestions? I have checked every permission time and again. My phone is rooted and even granted all permission using Tasker Permissions on my PC.

Hi. If your phone is rooted Tasker is toggling the Airplane mode with a shell command. What happens if you disable root access for Tasker and then try to run the action? Does that make it work?
