Good morning everyone, Could anyone tell me if there is a way to enable the following "Advanced Permissions" on the MobiControl App on a Samsung Galaxy S7 through a script or Feature Controls? Apps that can appear on top and Apps that can change systems settings We are using Samsung Galaxy S7s, and Version: 14.2.2.1170 of Soti MobiControl MDM, and Version 13.8.0 Build 1047 of the MobiControl App. Thank you for any suggestions that you can provide.

Hey Guys, I just want to know how you handle Updates of Chrome, Playservices, ... in your environment? We're using many Zebra TC20 for internal use only. We have a few Apps which only needs internal access to our Servers, so the Zebras are configured with a Proxy for internet access, just for a quick view of prices, Information etc. Unfortunately the Google-Apps don't use this Proxy (configured with Zebra MX) for updateing themselves. That means we're still using Chrome, Play, Mail, ... Versions from the Zebra OS a few Months ago. A newer OS-Update doesn't contains newer App Versions of e.g. Chrome so we're now got stuck. Is there any chance to Update all this Google-Stuff by apk or do I have to change the WIFI so the Devices get unlimited Internet-Access? for example: The Chrome Version installed within the Nougat or Oreo OS of our Devices is 69.0.x. We just want to bring out an TWA Wrapper App which needs min. Chrome 74.x. I don't know at the moment how to Update Chrome to get this working. Many Thanks and kind regards
I can't believe it's finally here. Has anybody started using it with SOTI yet?
We are looking to lock phones down to only be able to call one support number. I'd like to use the enrolment of Android Enterprise as it is a lot faster to deploy and the phone call restrictions from Android Plus profile. When attempting this the Android Plus profile is not assigned to the devices. Is it possible to apply this policy to an Android Enterprise phone? Alternatively, is it possible to enrol phones to Android Plus in a way similar to Android Enterprise that reduces any manual configuration of the phone/agent installation?
Hello, I would like to allow only a specific app (business app) to push android notifications (status bar and lock screen) on a kiosked managed device. Is there a simple way to do that ? Script or Feature Control ? Go the Settings / Sound & notification / Notification and manually disable all apps notifications seems rather tedious to me especially on many devices.. Environment : Version of the server : 13.4 Device Family : Android Plus I also see in the Feature Control for Android Enterprise the option "Disable All Notifications" but then, by checking this option, is there any way to allow a specific application to notify ? Many thanks for your help and answers.
Hi, I have created the profile on our devices and can see it in the Bookmarks of Google Chrome. Is there a way to put a shortcut on the home screen of the device to this URL? https://discussions.soti.net/thread/website-urls-on-home-screen/?order=all#comment-a2bbd35e-b1f6-459b-ac76-dc202096c7d2 This states that you can do it with Soti lockdown but I am not sure on how we do this. We don't have Soti Surf installed either. Is this still a feature request that is pending?
Hi, I already read some forum posts about this topic. It should be possible to install an application and grant the needed permissions if the application is installed with mxconfig and a StageNow xml file. I tested this in two ways: 1) manually copy the apk file and xml file (AppMgr to install the apk) to the device. Send script via Soti MobiControl with mxconfig xml file. The application is installed on the device with the needed permissions. 2) Building a Soti package with MC Studio. Copying the files to the device and include a postinstall script. The mxconfig command is in the postinstall script, same command as in 1). The application is installed, but doesn't get the needed permissions automatically like in 1). I tested differnt applications, same behaviour as mentioned above. Does anyone have an idea why this isn' working? Device is Zebra TC56, Android 7.1.2 with Update19 (Non GMS), Agent version 13.7.0.1031. Soti MobiControl version is 14.3.0.3144. Thanks.

Good Afternoon! I used to use the following script to set the screen time out on our android + devices however this doesn't appear to be working for Android 9.0. Does anyone know if the syntax has changed? I've tried both of the following: Writesecureprofstring –sys screen_off_timeout 600000 writesecuresetting –sys screen_off_timeout 600000 From what I can tell this should still work.. when I do Watchsetting On I get the following log when I manually change the setting: Custom log (URI:content://settings/system SETTING:screen_off_timeout VALUE:600000) Cheers, Johnathon
We had a profile which had a feature control of "Block Background Data" set on Samsung XCover4 devices. This has now been removed, however has left the Data Saver turned on. Is there a way to toggle this to off, or better still, to allow MobiControl to allow app whilst data saver is on (found in Settings / Apps / MobiControl / Mobile Date / Data Usage / Allow app while Data saver on). This is using SOTI server v13.4 and device agent Samsung ELM 13.7.5, utilising an AND+ / DA build method.
Hi, I was able to update the device hostname via mxconfig filename.xml command. (details of xml file below). Assuming I have this file in all my TC56 devices, is there anyway I can pass the value of %MCDEVICENAME% into the xml file and replace "MyDevice" value? <wap-provisioningdoc> <characteristic type="HostsMgr"> <parm name="HostName" value="MyDevice"/> </characteristic></wap-provisioningdoc>
Hi Is there any way of getting the output from Mxconfig XML command into a file or into the logs of MobiControl?
