Tasker Unable to "input tap" command after root - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6

I have a GS6 64GB running the latest OTA and rooted on Ping Pong Root. I am trying to automate starting my wifi hotspot and the third party apps don't seem to work so I figured I would use tasker to input a couple of taps but the command won't run. Wondering if anyone else has run in to this. I have given tasker root privilege and enabled its accessibility setting. The circle in the tasker UI goes red and it never completes the task. I never had an issue on my GS5. I tried the swipe command as well with the same outcome. I also opened a terminal window to run the command and it said the tap command didn't exist. I ran the swipe command in terminal and it worked but taskers run shell > input swipe didn't. Any help would be great. Ultimately I want a way to get Wifi hotspot to turn on when it sees my cars bluetooth. I have AT&T so i need to swipe on then verify so it is a couple steps.

I've been trying to do the exact same thing with no luck. I replicated the same thing on my s4 that I recently got running lollipop. Not sure if its a Samsung lollipop issue or a lollipop issue in general.
The only thing I was able to do to make it easier was add a quick settings toggle to enable it. Makes it a little easier. I just wish I could get rid of the warning about turning wifi off and having to tap ok.

After doing some research I found its an issue with new 64 bit devices. Anyway I found a work around using secure settings plugin. The input tap command works if you use the secure settings plugin and put the command in there.

That's good to know. After I was able to accomplish that. It just the secure setting method to activate WiFi hotspot and the tasked WiFi tether function and they both work now. I didn't notice am update to either but I'm glad it work now.

I'm curious what you did to make the wifi hotspot functions work in securesettings? I'm rooted with pingpong but if I run a task to enable wifi hotspot it fails every time.

It works in secure settings and just the wifi tether in tasker. I'm not really sure what I did. Used the input tap method to activate it. And tried after that and it worked. Didn't try it right before that tho. I'm running stock rooted oe2 (I think that's it, the update). I have the WiFi tether mod installed but that's only to get rid of the verify process it did when I turn it on. It didn't work after that I tried.

I just flashed clean rom and it no longer works. It must have been a mod I made. I wanted to try something. The wifi kept cutting in and out on me for some reason

I do have it.
This might be a dumb question but why would you want to freeze the mobile hotspot? Can't it be toggled on/off in settings?
i think he wants it out of his app drawer, or maybe he's having the same problem i'm having,weather i use opengarden, barnacle, or any of the other tethering apps, i get an icon in my notification that the "verizon" app is trying to use wifi tether
Just get some app that freezes apps. Titanium can do the job. I got my hotspot froze.

You cannot freeze it. It is buried inside some other system program, I don't remember which. You could find it and edit it out, but that is pretty advanced stuff.
He wants to freeze it because it is ALWAYS running. It will drive you insane if you use a task manager widget.
The only thing I know to work is a custom ROM. None of them have it, but you can use AOSP Wifi tether. Try Eclipse.

Keyguard not disabling on wifi.

I had tried to make my Keyguard go off when I'm at my home wifi, and it simply doesn't work. I'm using tasker and I'm using the same profile as I did on my SGS2 and that was perfect but the HTC One is a bit more trouble some with this setting. If anyone has done this and got it to work successfully please include it. Much appreciated to sharing your time.

I am having the same problem with tasker, I am gonna try older version of tasker!!
I just started using Tasker... and it really works funkily. I have used Tasker itself and Secure Settings, both, to disable the keyguard when I am connected to my WIFi... And sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes while I am using the phone and hit the Android Home button, it actually goes to the Pattern input lock screen.
I am using CM10 with Action Launcher on a Samsung Galaxy Nexus 16gb GSM

enable tethering

I have the unlimited plan on att and trying to enable tethering/hotspot. I have 4.4.2 rooted and how will i accomplish this.
Freeze the system app called "tethering provisions". Use an app manager like titanium backup pro, or another one off your choice.
I get a message that unfortunately settings has stopped when I try to turn on tethering. Tethering provisions frozen with TiBu Pro.
You should only get the error once. Then open settings and type in new hotspot ssid and password.

If error persists after setting up hotspot info, find a widget that can enable hotspot. I use "power toggles".

Download portable mobile hotspot from the Playstore, has worked flawlessly over the last month, and no *timeouts.
Once downloaded, tap the icon. a message will appear "please wait while verifying", press ur Home button while the message is there and u will be good to go, (and att will not know ur tethering).

Nope. Still getting the settings has stopped message. I don't get the message please wait while verifying. I've rebooted. Tried freezing both tethering items with tibu. Not sure why not working for me. I'm on Stock Rooted.

Interesting. That worked. Still get the settings warning, but the hotspot goes active.

Temporary lock on smartlock doesn't work.

Hi XDA, I'm new to this, and I finally decided to use XDA since I've found lots of use out of it. In search for a good android support community I think I found one. I have a nexus 6 with smart lock enabled. Usually you can push the little lock icon on the lock screen to lock your phone with the pin even if you are at a trusted location or connected to a trusted device etc. I used to use this a lot, but it just stopped working one day. Unfortunately I don't know when or what could have caused it. I am not aware of any setting that toggles it and I don't get any error, just no response when I click it. Although I don't think its the cause, I am rooted, I have twrp, tasker, and titanium backup with nothing important frozen. I would really appreciate the help and would like to avoid wiping my phone to fix this. If that's what I need to do then so be it, its really annoying though!
Thanks,

Are you using a smart watch for smartlock? do you have tasker disabling bluetooth?
Thank you for your reply. No i do not have a smart watch (anymore) and I disabled tasker and restarted to see if it had caused any issues.

Toggling data without room on marshmallow

Hi Tasker friends,
I need some help with my honor 8. I do not want to root it, but I do want to be able to toggle mobile data using Tasker. I was trying to do so using autoinputt, but it only works, if I go to quick setting by myself. Then the profile triggers. Tasker is configured the way that, if I lose my WiFi connection, it should trigger autoinputt to go to quick settings and the click on mobile data. However as stated above it doesn't work.
That's why I'd like to make a task, which triggers a NFC profile using the honor app magic tag. My profiles in that app are capable of toggling mobile data. So the Tasker task should somehow trigger the nfc profile!
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your help.
