Hi is there a way to play a specific sound file (wav/mp3) via script (no matter if Legacy or Javascript)? I found "showmessagebox "Your message" NO_TIMER 1 NOTIFY_DEVICE" but this sound is a bit too short and would have been only a workaround.
Is it possible to send an intent from my application to execute a SOTI script? Either running a SOTI script file which I have sent to the device with FileSync or sending a command to MobiControl (e.g. reboot). There are certain actions my app does not have permission to do but would be easy to achieve with a SOTI script. However, I need to do these actions conditionally from within my app such as executing an APK. Based on the other forum post below, it is possible to launch a SOTI script from a shortcut on the lockdown. However, is it possible to launch a SOTI script from my application via an intent to MobiControl? Android : Launch-able SOTI Script shortcut on SOTI Lockdown Thanks.
Hello, maybe you can help me out here even though i am almost sure its a limitation of mobicontrol / device at this point. i want to set the timeout before the display gets locked to 30 minutes and the powerbutton should only turn of the screen. on an android+ device i found the following with watchsettings so far: Lock Screen After Timeout: Custom log (URI:content://settings/secure SETTING:lock_screen_lock_after_timeout VALUE:1800000) For the powerbutton option i sadly got no result. Using the following script on an aedo device got me no result: writesecuresetting -sec lock_screen_lock_after_timeout 1800000 I then tried to find something with adblogs on the aedo device and found the following settings triggered: security.screenlock.ScreenLockSettings/lock_after_timeout|1800000 security.screenlock.ScreenLockSettings/power_button_instantly_locks|false i tried multiple combinations of the settings with writesecuresetting i.e.: writesecuresetting -sec lock_after_timeout 1800000writesecuresetting -sec power_button_instantly_locks false writesecuresetting -sec lock_screen_lock_after_timeout 1800000writesecuresetting -sec lock_screen_power_button_instantly_locks false None of them worked. Any Ideas would be appreciated.
Hi there, i want to change the Keyboard on a Nokia 5.3 to have a scanner integrated. Since now i used this on Zebra: mxconfig /sdcard/enableEKB.xmlwritesecuresetting -sec enabled_input_methods com.google.android.inputmethod.latin/com.android.inputmethod.latin.LatinIME:com.symbol.mxmf.csp.enterprisekeyboard/com.android.inputmethod.latin.LatinIME And now tried this on Nokia: writesecuresetting -sec enabled_input_methods com.google.android.inputmethod.latin/com.android.inputmethod.latin.LatinIME:com.nikosoft.nikokeyboard/com.android.inputmethod.latin.LatinIME or without GBoard: writesecuresetting -sec enabled_input_methods com.android.inputmethod.latin.LatinIME:com.nikosoft.nikokeyboard/com.android.inputmethod.latin.LatinIME But nothing happens. Does anyone know if I am wrong how to set it up or does Nokia / Android 10 not support to write the security settings? I know how to get gboard away with blacklisting it but then i only have the voiceinput.It seem that i'm not able to set it via script.

Hi, is there a possibility to delete several folders at once? I want to remove folders like 151... 153.... 159... etc. So i tried using script like this: rd /s /enterprise/usr/1* but this is not working. I can write rd /s /enterprise/usr/151434434304 and it will delete the exact folder. But I want to delete all folders that begin with 1. Is there any possibility?
Hi, Is there any way in SOTI that would set my own app as the default launcher on Android? Everytime an update on my app is performed, since the old one is deleted before the new one is installed, a prompt to choose the default launcher will pop-up and we would like that our launcher would be always the default launcher, no exeptions.
Hi, we have some Samsung Galaxy A40, which must be run on Android 9 for a while. With which script can i dissable the automatic download from new updates? Thanks!
Hello,I’m trying to remotely wake up Android Tablets. The situation is that I have a number of Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) tablets that are configured with a lockdown for customers to use. We have been getting complaints that staff are getting tired of having to wake the tablets up every morning. The tablets are in enclosures that and they can’t reach the buttons to wake it up. The tablets are on Android 8.1 SOTI we are using is 14.4We have disabled the daze mode and set the screen time out to 5 or 6 hours. Our initial tablets that never turned off had to be replaced due to burn in so leaving them lit up overnight isn’t going to work out that wellI’ve tried sending scripts like unlock and they don’t seem to do anything no error nothing. However, if I send reset /s as a script command it reboots, if I send lock it locks so it is executing some scripts.The tablets being what they are don’t have the double tab to wake option.When I remote to them and used the home button they wake up fine so the connection is fine.Ultimately I was hoping to use the task schedule to send the script but if I can’t get it to work as a one off it seems unlikely it will work with the schedule.Anyone run into something like this or have any suggestions?
Hello, is it possible to disable the secure startup pin with a script? My Problem is that when setting a Pin with DeviceConfig (Honeywell CT40) it also activates secure startup, the pin itself is needed for certificate installation but the secure startup is really hindering tasks that initiate any kind of reboot on the device.
I an looking a way to launch by script the MDM net.soti.mobicontrol.ui.MainActivity (content library. activity on mobicontrol) directly from lockdown. If it is possible, I would like to know if it would be possible to designate a specific file to be opened.
Is there a way, to close the app through soti on zebra TC-57, Oreo 8.1 devices? Since kill and kill_application don't work, is it possible in some other way to kill the app remotely? Perhaps via sendintent? Currently what I'm doing is using 2 scripts that use mxconfig. One to Disable and other to Enable the app.
how do I disable the date and time editing function on android enterprise on soti mobicontrol v.14?
Hi all, We are currently working with some Unitech TB85 tablets - staged using Android for Work. I am trying to send a script where possible to change the default storage location of the camera - and started down the path of using 'watchsettings' However Soti reports this script is not supported by the device. Are there any alternatives to this that can produce the same results please? I have tried some variations of the writesecuresetting command, but without knowing the actual setting this is just pot luck at this stage. Any help greatly appreciated. Leigh
