Nice.
It's important to note that after every restart of your device you will need to setup adb tcpip again.
On Oxygen OS 12 on my OnePlus 8 Pro:
Shell script: "settings put system screen_off_timeout 30000"
Actions - Shell Script - Rooted - No Helper: Works
Actions - Shell Script - Non-Rooted - No Helper : Doesn't work.
Actions - Shell Script - Rooted - Helper : Doesn't work.
Actions - Shell Script - Non-Rooted - No Helper : Doesn't work.
Actions - System Setting - System: Doesn't work.
Actions - System Setting - Secure - No Helper: Doesn't work.
Actions - System Setting - Secure - With Helper : Doesn't work.
Actions - System Setting - Global - No Helper: Doesn't work.
Actions - System Setting - Global - With Helper : Doesn't work.
Actions - Set Screen Time Out : Doesn't work.

Is this going to be resolved soon ? Screen time out issue is quite annoying... thank you !

I don't think the issue is in Macrodroid.
The issue exists on many Oppo phones and now One plus phones that have moved to the Oppo OS.
I no longer have an Oppo phone and my new Huawei phone doesn't have this issue. It also sets media volume when the screen is off, something else the Oppo phone didn't do.
The Huawei has the annoying confirmation dialog when an app tries to turn on or off Bluetooth.
Unfortunately phone manufacturers like to customise Android for their own OS, some more than others, so there will be differences.

OK then I suppose it's not possible to modify MD so as to make this functionality work on Oppo devices... That's too bad, because playing with sreen off delay and AOD settings was very nice. Thank you anyway for your hard work.

Yes but rooting is so annoying when it comes to updating the phone...
I think I wrote a way to make it work non-root, but it doesn't work?

I just tried it (I didn't want a solution involving pluging the phone to my PC at every restart, but I don't have a choice obviously) and I think it works. Thank you !

You don't need to plug it in on every reboot. The ADB permissions stay once granted

Oh, OK... But didn't FrameXX say "after every restart of your device you will need to setup adb tcpip again." ? Anyway, I'll try and see by myself.
And also, I wanted to play with AOD settings. I saw that the (secure) settings were, apparently :
Setting_AodEnable=1
Setting_AodSwitchEnable=1
I tried some ADB shell commands but, although it's done without any error, AOD won't be activated this way. I must miss something I suppose...

I made a mistake about the reboot thing. Also MacroDroid has an ambient display action built in, maybe that helps

That's how it works with ADB Shell tasker plugin app, however granting permissions with ADB is permanent until you uninstall MacroDroid.

Yes when I updated my OP8T to Android 12, AOD, screen off delay, and volume settings stopped working properly. Soon after there was a MD update which fixed the volume settings. Screen off delay is now +/- fixed thanks to the ADB shell command solution. But regarding AOD I couldn't find something (the built in MD command doesn't work anymore for me).
Noted for another thread.
Thank you !
