    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,

    AutoWear error

    AutoWear Tiles is no longer working. I also receive a notification that an error has occurred when I open the AutoWear app, and that I should contact the developer.

    Disabling Do Not Disturb (DND) also disables Tasker mode

    FrederickZh · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm using Tasker to achieve two things right now:

    1. Enable Always On Display only when my phone's charging
    2. Enable DND when I turn off Bluetooth, and disable it when I turn on Bluetooth

    I noticed that when I turned on Bluetooth, both DND and Tasker mode that controlled AOD would be disabled together, and as a result AOD would be enabled even if my phone was not charging.

    To reproduce this issue:

    1. Create task Disable AOD: Set Device Effects -> Disable Always On Display
    2. Create task Enable DND: Do Not Disturb -> Mode Priority

    Can't set POWER_SAVE_MODE_OPEN

    louis · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    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!

    Fix scan media issues

    Alex Feldman · 1 · Last reply by bkevin Tillman

    There are two issues with the "Scan Media" task

    1. Scanning a Directory doesn't discover new media files in the directory
    2. Scanning a file takes too long (about 1 second per file).  This is a problem when looping over many files.

    Suggested fix options:

    1. Option to scan files asynchronously.  We don't need any output from the scan action to proceed
    2. Speed up synchronous file scan
    3. Fixing the directory scan to pick up new files inside as new media (e.g. by Google Photos)

    I've seen some people having the same problem with other Google stuff, but haven't found a fix for Tasks. Is there anything I can do?

    Autoinput actions not working on gemini settings/overview screen

    Nico · 0 · Posted

    Hi there,

    I have a task using autoinput to go into the settings of gemini and switch between hotword detection being on and off. For some reason this stopped working. It still opens the overview screen, but it does not execute any clicks or swipes to go to settings. Same problem with V1 and 2 of autoinput. And the same actions work in several other apps I have tried. And when I manually click on settings, the clicks on the next screen work again. Any ideas?

    Cheers. Nico

    Autoinput Actions not saving (Android)

    Alex · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi All, 

    Have a Samsung Fold 4, Android. 

    I'm trying to modify the existing 'text' element of an auto input (v1) click action in tasker but after I manually change the text and click back, the text field doesn't change.

    Easy input also does not work. On the Autoinput screen, I get this error message on the bottom 'Please touch tasker on this list'. 

    But there is no list. 

    When create a new autoinput action, the fields remain blank. 

    Tried Autoinput v2, but nothing saves there too.

    I've tried disabling and re-enabling accessibility and clearing data and cache.

    Issue with Javascriptlet when processing JSON Data

    At te moment, the javascriptlet is failing when it is used to process or filter data from a JSON. While it works correctly for other use cases, it does not behave as expected when handling JSON data, resulting in no output. This indicates that the issue is related specifically to how the javascriptlet processes JSON, rather than to the data itself

    Tasker Unable to Reply to a Whatsapp message

    Hi 

    I had purchased Tasker, AutoNotification and AutoTools. Also, I had downloaded AutoInput.

    I tried to set it up on android phone S20+, Android version 13.

    I need to use Tasker to auto reply to certain whatsapp message in a whatsapp group. I used the  autonotification reply, use the %anreplyaction but at most, it can only reply by means of sending a new standalone message. I need Tasker to tag and reply to the message, sort of quoting that message and reply to it. Seems it's unable to do so. Is there any method that I should use to make

    When I create two profiles, each with one calendar entry, and fill them identically, in my example, I only fill the description *🔇*, and in the second profile, the calendar entry differs only by the fact that an additional five-minute start early field was filled.

    Only the five-minute early entry is triggered 5 minute before, but not the normal calendar entry is not triggered when the date starts. Occasionally, it happens that the normal calendar entry is triggered only five minutes after the appointment starts.
