LineageOS 15.1 wifi on while airplane mode

[Michal Baranec]

Hello, exist some easy way in Tasker, how to trigger wifi on while airplane mode is active?
Still getting error to trigger wifi with tasker and airplane on.

LineageOS 15.1, OnePlus 3T, latest tasker version

Thanks.

This should work:


Profile: Airplane Mode (26)
State: Variable Value %AIR ~ on

Enter: Anon (32)
A1: WiFi
Set: On

I already tried, but not works.
Seems that wifi control is not allowed for tasker during airplane mode? in Android 8.1?
or missed something?

thx

I tried just create simple condition, if Airplane mode is active, then put Wifi ON sometimes. With Oreo this trigger not works.

That mentioned A1 and Anon(32) is something special in Tasker?

thx

It works on my Galaxy S9 with Oreo 8.0.0. I'll go through it line by line:

    Profile: Airplane Mode (26)

This is the name I gave to the profile. The number is arbitrary and assigned by Tasker.

        State: Variable Value  %AIR ~ on

The built-in global variable %AIR contains the state of airplane mode. The profile is active when %AIR contains on.
       
    Enter: Anon (32)

Anon is the placeholder name assigned by tasker because I didn't name the enter task.

    A1: WiFi
        Set: On

When the profile activates, turn wifi on.

I did almost same, and getting error for wifi set on trigger.

I am checking also variable %AIR, if ~on, set wifi on.
Due to some restriction, not works. when airplane mode is off, then wifi is triggered successfully,so I asume that airplane mode is blocking somehow action "wifi set on" on LineageOS 15.1 (android 8.1)?

my workaround solution is secure setting "run command" --> svc wifi enable/disable as root.
