    Call Forward not working after android 14 upgrade

    Larry Kennedy · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Call forwarding always worked for me until the Android 14 upgrade.   I have a Samsung S22+. 

    Now, Tasker launches the phone app, but it doesn't actually dial the number. It just sits there and I have to press dial.  To forward, I'm dialing the Verizon *72 sequence. I verified that I have the auto dial box checked.

    Oddly, call Forward End *73 still works.

    Autonotifiation startActivityAndCollapse()

    A Harper · 4 · Last reply by A Harper

    When I use an Autonotification tile with "Hide Notifications" as an option (to collapse the notification shade), I instead get a warning that Autonotification cannot close the shade and I should be using "Close System Dialogs" from the fired task to close the shade.

    Unfortunately, a work profile on my device prevents me from using Tasker's accessibility service, so this is not an option for me.

    However, other apps I use with quick setting tiles all seem to be able to accomplish this goal without special permissions. As does the QuickTask Tasker plugin.

    Set "use reliable alarms" to never has no effect and always shows a alarm in the notifications

    Lars M · 1 · Last reply by Lars M

    On My Google Pixel 7 Android 14 the alarm notification "00:00" occours again. Resetting "use reliable alarms" to never has only a temporary effect, after a minute the alarm notification occurs again. Also clear the data and cache does not help?

    Any hints or ideas?

    After Android 14 update, Tasker no longer completes phone call / dial tasks.

    I have a task that auto-dials MMI codes to turn on/off forwarding. This used to work fine, after an Android 14 update, the dial keypad pops up with the MMI code already entered, but does not actual dial the number. I have to manually click "call".

    Autolocation can't backup and restore

    Thom Young · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi! 

    I have recently bought a new phone but I can't restore my geofences from my previous phone. I only have the option to backup but not to restore. If I click backup it tells me the file path and says it doesn't exist.

    I can see someone else has the same issue here: https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/167l1yq/autolocation_autoshare_others_cant_backuprestore/?rdt=47611

    %VOLM and other global volume variables reporting incorrect value

    pep Cor · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Weirdly enough, tasker is not reporting the correct volume level on my head unit (Chinese aftermarket). Lots of tasks work normally, but when checking my volume level, it always returns the same value (e.g. 13 VOLM and 7 for VOLS). Anyone encountered this issue and/or has a lead on how to solve/debug this?

    Kid App Draw Over Other Apps Permission

    Threemoneys · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Kid apps from Tasker App Factory start with the following notification inherited from Tasker:

    "Starting in Android 10 Tasker needs to always have the 'Draw Over Other Apps' permission to be able to do stuff like opening apps from the background."

    Can this notification be removed from Kid Apps? Even if this permission is required for the kid app as well, the notification shouldn't say "Tasker".

    Per app display rotation toggle prevents apps from entering recent in OneUI 5.1

    Serris · 2 · Last reply by Serris

    So I have this Tasker profile which enables display rotation for some apps, and when I exit the app it disables it. However  this seems to interfere with Samsungs recents button, as it glitches out and prevents those apps from entering recents. Disabling that Tasker profile fixes the issue. I don't know if this is a Tasker issue or Samsung issue... Any help or advice would be appreciated.

    Tasker allows deleting tasks used in other tasks

    Konstantin Lisnyak · 1 · Last reply by João Dias
    Currently, Tasker prevents the deletion of tasks that are associated with profiles. If a task is not associated with any profile, but is used in one or more other tasks using the "Perform task" action, the user may mistakenly delete such a task and Tasker will not show warnings about the consequences this deletion. It is necessary that the user be warned if the task being deleted is used in other tasks. I believe that this is easy to implement, since even now, when renaming a task, the user is warned about the name change in links to this task,

    Fetch and XMLHTTPRequest doesn't work in baked applications

    Marco · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

     created a very simple fetch PoC that works perfectly fine in the tasker itself, but fails when I run it from a task exported as an app.

    Code is a very basic GET request with some params to make sure that it works:

    I embed it to a task as a JavaScriptLet (to make sure it gets baked in into a file).

    It makes the query fine from the Tasker application (when I simply run the task).

    However, after exporting it as an app, installing, it just errors out with a flash:

    Cannot install Tasker, tick battery optimization

    My Tasker stopped working after 6 years on my Ugoos TV box. When trying to reinstall, it is not possible to pass the install screen with tickboxes as I am unable to tick the box battery optimization. My android TV box is always connected to power. Changing battery settings and reboots did not solve it.  What can I do?

    Device: Fire HD Tablet 10 with Google Play Services Installed

    I was able to download tasker from Google Play Store but I am getting stuck on the "Before We Get Started" setup screen. I am able to check off the three boxes but there is a gray box below that says "Check all checkboxes to proceed". 

    Any work arounds for installing this? I triple checked to make sure that Tasker is not running with battery optimization.
