Can't set POWER_SAVE_MODE_OPEN

Hi, I'm trying to control the power saving on my xiaomi redmi on hyperos / android 15.

after some tweaking I determined with adb that setting POWER_SAVE_MODE_OPEN works (the find setting feature can also find it).

However, setting it with a custom setting gives an error and tells me I should contact the developer. Btw, clicking the notification doesn't work.

I also tried to install Tasker Settings and Shizuku but it didn't change anything. 
Also, if I add Tasker as device admin app it doesn't complain anymore with a notification but still doesn't work.

Would greatly appreciate your help!

Hi!

Due to Google's Android restrictions, some features like Custom Settings or Display Size 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 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

Alternatively, you can install the Tasker Settings app without a PC, using Shizuku. Please see the release notes at the download link for full details.

Unfortunately, there's no way around these new system restrictions, sorry.

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