    Remote-Control plugin for Google Pixel 6

    Hi,i am currently trying to remote control Google Pixel 6 with Android 13. When i try to remote control the device, a window on the device pops up and asks the end-user "Start recording or casting with SOTI MobiControl" with the option to cancel it or "start now".Is it possible to get rid of that window, so the remote control starts without this question?Soti Mobicontrol: 15.6.4.1006Soti Agent: 2024.0.5.1062

    Search Criteria by Custom Attribute? Solved

    Hi There, I have a custom attribute in our SOTI instance which is "Nickname" I'm unsure wether this is a default attribute in SOTI or this was added by someone in the business in the past? I am able to use this as a search filter as a device property, as pictured. I have added another custom attribute which is "state" however but I am unable to search by this filter. See pictures below. Is it normal to not be able to search by a custom attribute? I have tried doing a search index sync since adding the "state" attribute, but no luck. Thanks, Adrien.

    automatic pairing on Zebra TC72 Android with SotiMobicontrol lockdown Solved

    Hi, Is there a configuration so as not to have to confirm the pairing of a Bluetooth headset during an NFC contact? Bluetooth management is authorized in the lockdown profile but each time you connect a headset, there is a window asking to confirm the connection. I would like there to be no confirmation window and the connection to be confirmed automatically.

    Enrolling Device as COPE - Cannot locate device

    I am looking to enrol my Android Pixel 7a's with a Corporate Personal (COPE) enrollment policy.    After enrolling and testing functionality, i noted I could'nt locate the device remotely, with it always timing out.  Looking at the Location permissions on the Pixel 7a itself, I can see that the SOTI Mobicontrol app has not been granted the location permission for the version of it with the little briefcase (im guessing the work profile version of it).  If i manually grant it permissions, I am able to locate the device on the mobicontrol console.   Surely this permissions should be granted automatically, or be requested as a part of the enrolment, which it is not.  It isnt even an option to request this during setup. Anyone else come across this?

    App only works if its in the kiosk lockdown?

    Hi,  I'm a little lost with this one... I was wondering if someone could help. We use the jobwatch app (Bigchange) we have a section where it opens a hyperlink into Samsung internet to allow a customer to allow for signatures that sends straight to designated emails. I have allowed the Samsung internet app to be used inside kiosk however, the only way I can get it to work is if its on the lockdown screen on our kiosk? Is there a way to get this to work without it being on there ?

    Start bluetooth search remote by Script on Zerbra and Honeywell

    Hello, I would like to make the Bluetooth names of my devices permanently visible. Currently, I can only find them when I go into Bluetooth settings. This would be for both Zebra and Honeywell devices. Alternatively, it would also be good if it could be started manually via a script.

    If I create a profile in MobiControl and send it to a device, if it doesn't have Authentication added in it it breaks Mobi on the device Solved

    I am setting up ipads for children to play games on in public libraries. I am using an App policy to push all the apps to the devices. We are locking down Internet etc so I am using a Profile, using Feature Control to disable things. We do not want passwords on the devices.  The problem is when I assign the Feature Control Profile to the device without configuring Authentication in the profile it breaks Mobi Control on the device (It works fine if I add Authentiction to the profile). When you attempt to open Mobi on the device it pops up quickly saying App not configured then closes.

    Devices with wrong date & time can't connect to MC server Solved

    Hello all, We have a problem with some of our devices. For some reason they sometimes change their date & time to somewhere in 2014, as long as they are connected it's no big issue as we can just send a script to adjust the timesettings. But when the devices disconnects it can't reconnect as the time is wrong. I have manually changed another device in our test environment and when I set it to, for example 2020, it has no issues with connecting. Is there a way to change the minimum date/time on our server to allow devices to connect? We are running mobicontrol server 15.5 with android 5.1.1 devices running mobicontrol client 15.2 (zebra TC70). Kind regards, Jens

    How to get Username to populate in MobiControl Solved

    We've got about 1300 Android devices in our environment currently but none have them have a username attached so we don't know who each device belongs to.  Is there any way to collect the username data from each device? Changing the enrollment policy won't really help since they are already enrolled.
