Charge Status no longer triggering profile

[Emilee Rea]

I've used Tasker for years now, and finally hit a problem I'm having trouble fixing.

I have a profile for triggering a task called "Sleep" that has two conditions:

1. State > Power > Power > Any
2. State > Sensor > Orientation > Right Side

This has worked for YEARS and across multiple devices.  But something happened between Friday night (when it still worked) and Saturday night where the Power Status part of the profile isn't being caught.  I didn't see any system updates or Tasker updates in that window.  Current device is a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.

I made a new profile that just has the orientation piece, and it still triggers the tasks and exit tasks appropriately.

Then I switched the new profile to only use the power piece, and it never triggers.  I tried my normal charging cable (magnetic plug + cable), and a normal USB C cable, and neither triggered the power status to see that it was now charging, even though the device itself reflects that it is.

Any suggestions on how to gain back the ability to recognize the charging status?

Thank you!

Hi João,

Thanks for your support.

As a last ditch effort, I restarted my phone and now the problem seems to be resolved. I'll report back to you when all stays OK for about a week.

Regards,

Hi João,

Back as promised...

I haven't had any problems in the past week with the detection of the Power-state. The only thing I'm experiencing is that it takes about 20 seconds for the condition to be detected, whereas before it was instantaneous. But, in my case, that's not really an issue.

So, thanks very much for your excellent support.

Regards,

Jan
