Google Pay
A simple task on S21 Ultra 5G dosen't work. Tasker doesn't recognize "Google Pay" as an app, or better it doesn't recognize when the app is opened.
If I change Google Pay with an other app (not matter which) it works all fine.
The task should activate NFC ONLY if I open Google Pay and disactivate it when I close the app.

phone.setSimPowerStateForSlot causing issues
Hi,
Don't know if it has been reported or not. And i do hope i can explain the issue for you guys to understand.
I have a task where i disable my 2nd sim when i have a day off according a certain calendar entry. I use the ADB Wifi command phone.setSimPowerStateForSlot (1.0) to disable it. It does work well and my 2nd sim is disabled. But here comes the issue, after i think aprox 12hr while the sim is disabled i can't reenable it anymore. My phone (Samsung s20 fe 5g - non rooted) doesn't see any available 2nd

I have a Nexus 6p and all I want to do is completely disable the proximity sensor since the phone goes black when I make a call
Please tell me exactly (I'm dumb) how to completely disable the proximity sensor, since when I make a call the screen goes black.
Otherwise, since I just bought Tasker, if I can't do this, I want to return it for a refund.
It's the only reason I bought it.
Thanks!

Setting/changing notification volume (or any volume setting) ends DND mode if turned on by Tasker?
Is it expected behavior that implicitly changing the volume level via Tasker would turn off DND mode if turned on by tasker? Doesn't seem to do this if DND is turned on via Android UI. See attachment for VERY simple reproduction case.

On Asus Zenfone 8, bluetooth state is not correct
Hi Joao,
I've sent you an email through the app. I open a problem as well for the follow up.
I create the same profile over and over again on different devices (Pixel 5, Pixel 4a, Xperia XA2 etc ...) and they are working fine.
But with my asus zenfone 8 I cannot make tasker to read, correctly, the bluetooth state.
What does it mean ?
I have a profile and task saying that if the phone is connected to my band (Mi Band 5), then volume of everything should be set to maximum.
Actually, Tasker never detects when my

Black & white image filter has incorrect calculation for threshold
If I have an image that is admittedly annoyingly bright *, with the DARKEST pixels around rgb(166, 155, 125), the black & white filter results in an all-white image regardless of what threshold I select. So even if threshold is set to 255, which is the maximum, there are no black pixels in the resulting image.
I figured the filter might incorrectly calculate the lightness of each pixel from its components, so I also tried to first filter the image to grayscale, but that also didn't help. But then I'm not sure if the grayscale filter actually changes the image

All file actions should broadcast MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE intent to emulate file explorer
For example if I copied a file using tasker's 'file action' , then it should refresh mediastore, so that apps can pickup the new file in the directory.
It can be done using:
am broadcast -a android.intent.action.MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE -d file:///sdcard/filename
(probably you might need to run the above in root mode in some phones

Music image in szenes no longer working
I have set up a szene for my music controls some time ago and it worked absolutely fine and displayed the track image, but after the last update it does no longer display the image given from a variable. The called variable is set by the "Music track changed" event's child variable %mt_art and contains a path to the image.

Motion detection of Android slow / not working
As long as Takser is active, the motion detection for Android and other apps does not react or is needs very broad and fast motions to be registert.
For example the phone should turn on the screen if it is picked up. As long as Tasker is disabled that works fine. When Tasker is activ I have to wave the phone around quit abrutly for it to register the motion.Also the "Wake me up" alarm muting does not work when Tasker ist active.

Tasker randomly stops running profiles
I'm running Android 10 on a Nokia 7.1, with v5.14.6 of Tasker installed.
Starting in the past few weeks, Tasker randomly stops executing tasks. When this happens, if I don't notice it right away, my battery will deplete *a lot*. For example, if I don't notice this for a few hours, I could lose 50% or more of battery.
Rebooting my phone fixes the issue (until it occurs again). Sometimes this will occur several times a day, sometimes several days will go by without it happening. I can't find any rhyme or reason as to when/why it happens.

Autoshare (lite?) does not work without Autoapps installed.
I.e. tasker profiles for the autoshareplugin will not trigger. Although there is a popup showing the command and text.
How do I know? Once I installed autoapps sharing to my autoshare commands started working and triggered the profiles and their respective tasks.
Before I activated autoshare by watching an ad (not knowing that I bought Autishate before) and as far as I can tell staying within the limitations of the lite version by only sharing text I.e. the current chrome tabs url.
Why do I share this although it works now for me?
I consider the autoshare lite version broken.

Get Location v2 suspends all other tasks
Hey,
I noticed an issue with the "Get Location v2" action. It seems that the action suspends all other actions/tasks when the location update is running.
When I stop my car and the bluetooth connection to my mobile phone gets inactive, the variable %BluetoothConnection is set to "None", which triggers two pofiles to do an location update (Location Update@Out of Car) and check the audio profile settings (Check Audio Profile@Bluetooth).
According to the Tasker log (see below) both profiles are triggered and also both tasks (Force Location Update & Set Audio Profile) are started. But when the Get Location action

have to raise tasker before each event or it fails
I am using tasker on a Chromebook to watch for a file open, then send a page_down keypress event to the foreground (target) app. It works perfectly...one time. All subsequent file open events generate correct log entries in tasker. The file open event is noticed by tasker, and it correctly fires the keyboard input task; however, it does not result in a page_down action in the target app. If I bring tasker to the foreground momentarily, then the cycle works successfully again one time. Minimizing and restoring the target app does not work. Focusing an unrelated app does not work.

Autotools SSH key
Recently I have been trying to try and ssh from my android to my linux machines for some basic thing that I do need to manually do everyday and I do not want to use cronjobs as my android do play a certain amount of role in those tasks.
Autotools is using a deprecated authentication format (SSH-RSA) and that would not work on any updated linux machine unless one explicitly weakens the security of that machine (which won't be an issue on a local network but poses high risks when it comes to the ssh over internet) which is not recommended.
