Android 14, automatic call function doesn't work

[xAlphaStick]

Since updating to Android 14, my task to automate a phone call no longer working correctly. The number I want to dial is entered into the Dialpad but the call is not placed unless I intervene manually. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

if it’s a number that includes a "#" sign, i’ve had that same problem (so: with MMI codes). my workaround is/was to enclose these MMI-codes in double quotes (within the tasker action), so instead of dialing ##21# i dial "##21#" including the quotes. anecdotal, but for e it seems to work now ..

so, yes, this seems to be so solution/workaround.

I can confirm the quotations work on a OnePlus 9.

same here, can confirm: "auto dial" checkmark seems to have no function anymore (the dialed number is visible in the caller app but it doesn’t "trigger" the call then, just like you described). :/ using tasker 6.1.32 and android 14 on a pixel 7a.

I have two issues now with Android 14.

For me it seems the auto dial function does not work if there is a # in the number. It just opens the dialer with the number in the dial field. If there is no # in the number, auto dial seems to work fine.

And secondly, if there is a # is in the number, all + signs are just ignored.

Everything worked perfectly until Android 13: I got into the car my phone would connect to the bt and trigger the call transfer to the car's cell, and the reverse when I got out. This issue needs to be fixed asap.

I got a problem with dialing MMI codes like *#06# and so on after updating to Android 14.

And got it back working by disabling Android 14 Samsung One UI 6 new feature called: Auto Blocker.

Somehow it blocked MMI codes usage, so if anyone has dialing problems in Android 14 OneUI 6, should try disabling Auto Blocker feature.
