Hotspot activation not working in Samsung Galaxy S25+

Tether works manually and used to work with tasker until a while ago.


Here is the log for the activation:

Hi!

Due to Google's Android restrictions, some features like Toggling Wifi Tether can’t be handled directly by Tasker. This limitation is beyond my control, but you can bypass it by installing the Tasker Settings app, available here: https://github.com/joaomgcd/TaskerSettings/releases.

Make sure to read the full instructions on the page, including the part about Shizuku.

Also, use this version of Tasker:  https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/gyxfw8kimxyb0b1d1yaqu/Tasker.35.apk?rlkey=yacgs4ykb5c3rxb1wgn46a6oa&dl=0

Make sure to download the version that supports the functionality you need. Newer versions may request more permissions, so choose the one that best fits your needs.

Also, exempt Tasker Settings from battery optimization, or it might not work. Instructions can be found here: https://tasker.joaoapps.com/userguide/en/faqs/faq-problem.html#00.

Important Note: On Android 14+, Tasker Settings must be installed via ADB using this command:

adb install --bypass-low-target-sdk-block FILENAME.apk

Unfortunately, there's no way around this restriction, sorry.

I hope this helps, and let me know if it works for you. Thanks!
