  Still having the same weird problem with calendar events.

   I have two general events that trigger profiles off my main Google Calendar: turning my phone to silent for classes, and turning it to silent for sleep.  For sleep, I have essentially the same schedule all week, except for Friday night, when I have to go to sleep at 10 PM; otherwise, the event is set for 2 AM all other days.  However, this one sleep event, 90% of the time, on either my Note 10.1 or Note II, won't trigger.  My other sleep events work fine.  And it's not even a difficult profile; it triggers by a Calendar context, no title, location Home, Google Calendar*mine.*  My sleep events used to be all named the same, but even after changing the one day to a different name, it still won't work.   Then it started working on my Note II, but not my Note 10.1.   Now today, it didn't work on either and I had to manually trigger it again.

  I don't get why this is persistently not working when it should, and, technically, does every other day of the week.

Some calendars tasker cannot read locations.

For example, my task calendar i.e. pick up milk, change oil, etc. does not register any calendar location context.

But, this works in my benefit for several reasons so I don't have any desire for it to be fixed actually.

Just wanted you to be aware, if calendar location was the only context that could be the reason why it doesn't work.

....okay, but the location works IN THE EXACT SAME CALENDER in the same task.  That's why I'm confused as to why it won't work on one day, but does every other time.  I even tried using both title and location, and that didn't work either, so I cleared the title, and changed the one day calendar event that wasn't working to a different name, but same location.  It's just weird.

Literally, Sunday-Thursday night, I have "Sleeping" @ Home, and Friday night is "Bedtime" @ Home.  The ONLY thing I can think of is because my Thursday night is technically Friday morning, Tasker is confused at having two events at two different times in the same location.  But then my class schedules, with multiple event titles at the same location at different times of the same day, work perfectly.

Paste a description of the profile.

If that is the problem I'm sure we can find and implement a solution for you.

... but we gotta know where to start.
