I have discovered that the bug WAS indeed fixed in 0.16.0, and what I thought to be proof that the bug was still occurring was actually a previously-undiscovered bug, MCPE-18114. I have removed the screenshots relating to that bug and will now close this issue as fixed.

The bug was only partially fixed in 0.16.0. As of 0.16.1, there are still some cases where the rail will not be powered. See newly-attached screenshots.

Affects 0.15.10 & 0.15.90.8 (0.16.0 beta build 5).

Still happens in 0.15.4

Please respond and add the current version if you can reproduce this issue.

This is still a bug in v0.15.2

Comment by kaleb418 [ 20/Jun/16 ]

I can confirm this issue.

Couple of examples of how the rail CAN be powered by non directional redstone dust. (Just for reference)

Comment by user-5dbda (Inactive) [ 20/Jun/16 ]

OK here is a simple example that shows this behavior in the PE version.
I build a simple cross with a powerrail in the middle. On each of the outside blocks I place redstone dust. I then put a lever on the outside of each block and switch them all on and the power rail is still off as you can see below.
NOTE: If this done the exact same way in the PC version the power rail activates with any/all levers

Ok, it has been reopened.

This is it powering a block but not the rails.

Comment by [MCPE Mod] Dr.Awesome4333 [ 20/Jun/16 ]

Kaleb this is a bug as it powers blocks around the dust but not the rails.

Comment by user-5dbda (Inactive) [ 20/Jun/16 ]

I placed the dust to face the rail but it put connections facing the repeater by itself and will not change

This issue Works as Intended. If you have a feature request, head over to the Minecraft: Pocket Edition Forums.

Redstone dust must be facing towards the object the power it, as there is no quasi-connectivity in MCPE.
