I've been using Tasker to mute my phone at work. I recently added some nested tasks to enable and disable battery saver mode when I arrive and leave. However, it doesn't seem to have permission.
The phone is stock rooted Oreo on the October 2018 security patch release. Tasker is up to date.
I first see a notification:
Missing Permissions
Tasker needs the following permission(s) for the funcationality you have configured:
Write Secure Settings
Tapping the notification, I then get a modal:
Missing Permissions
Tasker needs to have permission to write secure settings to use this action. Want to learn how to grant it?
NO OK
Then another:
Use Root
Since your device is rooted you can automatically grant this permission. Do it now?
NO OK
Opting for the affirmative results in a toast notification:
Tasker has been denied superuser permissions.
The battery mode never gets changed. Thanks for any assistance.
