    Device migration from SOTI 13 to SOTI 15

    Hi everyone! I've encountered with a quiet strange behavior of Samsung devices. When I'm trying to migrate my enrolled in SOTI 13 Samsung device(Xcover4s)  using script with few Writeprivateprofstring commands, after enrolling in SOTI 15, it wipes completely to factory defaults. My steps were: - In SOTI 15 SHA-1 is enabled for enrollment rule. - MobiControl agent is up to date. - SOTI 13 device profile is clean and with any rules or restrictions. Same in SOTI 15 - With Writeprivateprofstring I'm adding a certificate key, new deployment server, and device rule tag. - Restart agent and forcing to connect with Connect -f. How can I evade or disable wiping my device after enrolling? Thanks for your help

    Soti Stage Programmer

    At the SOTI Stage Programmer App you can set Proxy Settings but no Proxy Bypass settings. Why is this important (if proxy is used) feature missing? There is no Windows or Web Barcode Generator which could create a QR (maybe as PDF or simple bmp)? So we had to write a QR-Code Generator by ourself which does both (Proxy Bypass included, create as bmp). Why SOTI doesn't provide that (maybe include it in Mobicontrol)?  The Stage Programmer app is a simple "type-in" Programm too. And (independently which QR-Code i use) when i set proxy seetings (with and without bypass) the wifi-settings can't be set. When i set it manually its working fine. Is there something which we should think about?

    Android Enterprise Fully Managed Solved

    Hi there, we are using an Enterprise Profile with Google Managed Account. So far its working well we can add apps to app catalog and they appear in the app catalog on the smartphone. My expectation was that they will be automatically downloaded and installed when i mark them as "Mandatory" but they aren't. Is there a way to do this automatically? We are using Kioskmode too, so they are not able to get to the application catalog without an administrator.

    Add work profile to generic Android 9 device?

    I have an Android 9 barcode scanner that I am using with MobiControl. Downloaded the generic Android MobiControl client from Google Play Store. Created an Enrollment ID for Android Plus device and added it to my company's profile. I can see the scanner in View Devices, can monitor battery and storage levels, and send messages to device but not much else. Additionally, on the device itself it periodically gives "Can't add work profile" error with a pending action. I created Android Plus Work Profiles following the guides but cannot get them to sync to my actual device. Searching the error message didn't return a whole lot. Is there a trick to deploying work profiles to generic devices?

    DISPLAY DEVICE PATH OR CUSTOM ATTRIBUTE ON LOCKDOWN

    Our MC is release 14.4. We manage around 3000 devices on 40 different kind of field services. The devices have different lockdown and access according to field services being assigned. It is common a device been transferred to different departments, so they must receive new assignemnets. It is also common the end user to forget to request to transfer the device in MobiControl, keeping the former assignments. When we were running MC 13, in order to avoid devices misplacements, in our lockdown template we have displayed the device path, by including a a reference to an external html file. This external html file  have been transferred by a filesync rule.  Such solution were consuming network band, so we have deactivated it. Is it available on MC release 14.4 any macro or environment variable that we may include on html lockdowntemplate to show which path the device is located, or maybe a custom attribute that may shows its content on lockdown ?  Something similar to %IMEI%

    SOTI agent, stuck at splash screen when screen is locked

    Hi! We have started seeing a weird behavior on some of our XCover 4s devices. When we do a restartagent or for example an upgrade of the agent when the screen is locked, the agent is stuck on splash screen and won't start until we unlock the screen. Have anyone else seen this problem? I have tried to disable Doze Mode, upgrade to the latest agent. eg. Android+ devices (DA)

    Server Error

    Hi, Everytime I try to move a device between folders I receive an internal server error message. I'm also unable to enrol new devices, they show 'enrolled' but the agent is disconnected. We've recently upgraded our licence to allow more devices, does this take time to become live? This is quite urgent as we need to build 400 devices by Wednesday! Thanks, Adam

    Android device recommendations

    We are looking at providing phones to run a very simple web app, so the requirements for the device are very low. I was considering looking at Android One devices to simplify things, however I was wondering if there were any brands or models that worked particularly well with Mobicontrol? For example, having the most compatible features, allowing easy deployment, etc We're looking in the region of <£200 Thanks
