After rebooting device and opening application that uses certificate installed through other profile it asks for credential storage password. If I press cancel, it will ask to allow certificate after some while. If device is rebooted and left alone for a minute or two, it works just fine. Application is using certificates and Authentication profile is set. Everything also works if PIN to unlock is added. It looks like SOTI is starting some process that allows access to keystore (only my guess). Is it possible to enable it manually, startup or through script? One solution was to include a scripted delay when opening app from lockdown, but this seems to not be the best solution, because time it takes to set everything up differs and we would like to achieve the best startup without 3-5 min delay, if possible.
Hi, I'm a newcomer to mobicontrol and APK packaging. A supplier has given us an APK file, but there is a requirement to set a specific URL for the App when it is installed, and the supplier is reluctant to add the URL as part of the APK without additional cost (big surprise). Apparently the preferences for the app are stored in "DefaultSharedPreferences", and the preference is called "connection_url" We use MobiControl - Package Studio to create the package from the APK. Can someone let me know how I would use this program to set the desired preference at the time of installation please? The help file doesn't help in this regard. Many thanks Mark
How to enable developer mode on AE managed devices? Our devices is Zebra TC25. I found here in forum, that it is possible via integration of SOTI to MX layer. But appreciate if someone can share step by step on how to do it. Thanks
We are using some Zebra RF guns in our warehouse. Per a recommendation from Cisco we have turned off Fast Transition on the wireless network, which basically means that the clients stay connected longer. We would like to see if there is anything we can set in Soti to force the client to roam when it reaches a signal threshold.

Hi We want to put some preconfigured website links on the desktop of our Samsung Android Enterprise devices. Is it possible to put those websites on the screen, or can we at least manage chrome bookmarks?
Hello, I created a profile with StageNow importing some PersonalDictionary items to the device. I tested the profile by using the StageNow App and the entries are present on the device. So I created a package for the device with the exported MDM XML file and a Post-Install script running "execute_shell mxconfig /sdcard/import.xml" The content of the XML is: <wap-provisioningdoc> <characteristicversion="6.3"type="PersonalDictionary"> <parmname="Action"value="3" /> <parmname="UseCurrentLocale"value="0" /> <parmname="Locale"value="de" /> </characteristic> <characteristicversion="6.3"type="PersonalDictionary"> <parmname="Action"value="1" /> <parmname="UseCurrentLocale"value="0" /> <parmname="Locale"value="de" /> <parmname="AddWord"value="umpunktion" /> <parmname="Shortcut"value="up" /> </characteristic> <characteristicversion="6.3"type="PersonalDictionary"> <parmname="Action"value="1" /> <parmname="UseCurrentLocale"value="0" /> <parmname="Locale"value="de" /> <parmname="AddWord"value="links nach rechts" /> <parmname="Shortcut"value="lr" /> </characteristic> </wap-provisioningdoc> But it doesn't work. The package was successfully installed on the device, but the entries are missing. Device Zebra TC51-HC with the latest Android 7.1.2 and Soti agent 13.6. Any suggestions how to import the words and shortcuts using the xml file? best regards Oliver
First off my ultimate intentions is to have one barcode that loads all Zebra devices. Doesn't matter if it is a ET50, TC70X, or a TC50. With that in mind I have setup the add rule to drop all devices into a Stage folder. My goal is to setup a device relocation based on the device model. Unfortunately IP and Custom Data are the only option to trigger relocation rules (Soti PLEASE make this more flexible in future!). I could use the Custom Data, but the only way to fill a custom data feild is through an INI or XML file off of the device (again FLEXIBILITY please...). So at this point i'm thinking a file sync rule with a custom script post file sync that will take the %MODEL% and write it to an ini file on the android device. Then I can tie the custom attribute to that file and pull back what was written into that ini. FYI - I have this working on WinMobile devices since there are ini files built in that include the device model. I am very weak at writing soti scripts and am wondering if i'm on the right track before I spend a bunch of time writing the script. Is there an easier way? Will this work at all?

I have a problem starting a factory reset with my android devices. I have the settings disabled via a policy and occasionally a factory reset needs to be started by an end user while offline. My thought was to have a script that the end user could run to start the reset /w command, but I didn't see a way to do this? What I really need is to be able to easily have the device factory reset by the end user while the device is offline with the settings disabled. Any advice would be appreciated.
Hello - I have set an AFW auth policy to require a pin code on our Samsung Active Tab 2's - However it's not prompting on the devices to set a pin when its applied. If I look at the device in MobiControl it shows as "PIN Set - Yes". It's not however. I'm using the Android Enterprise Agent, not sure if that makes any difference?
We have an app that supports the AppConfig standard and we need to manage this app using a profile. Are we able to modify the app as required and manage it or do we have to use the app catalog to accomplish this? How would we manage the app going forward?
