Is there a way to update the OS on a device? I have pushed the OS over in a .zip file but I can't find a way to initiate the installation of the new OS. This device is in Android Enterprise mode and isn't a Zebra device.
Dear Team, I would to deactivate a programmable button of 150 device with a script. On Crosscall the "WatchSettings ON" is not supported, therefore I can't record the proper script option to set. Is anyone knows how to do that ? Thanks, Victor
We're just starting to work with Android Enterprise, have our first few devices enrolled. First on the block is a TC75x (Android 8) Android Enterprise - setup with Work Profile (DO) In setup/testing mode right now. Successfully deployed our application with a new profile/package, it shows up as installed, and runs, but there is an enforcement by (Work) MobiControl agent to remove it, the agent pops up with a Pending Action - Application Uninstallation is required. I've gone over settings, ran a few searches and haven't seen this specific behavior. Was hoping we could continue to use packages/profiles to manage the application until we get more DA devices moved over in the future and finally get the app setup in the managed google playstore. I've tried: Whitelisting it's container with appcontrol -w io.cordova.thenameofourapp Used afw set permissions to grant permissions, as well as prevent uninstall. Checked the google admin console, can't manage the device management>app management from there due to it being managed by third party EMM provider. The ball is rolling to get our app on the managed google playstore. Should have the app signed rebuilt soon, so I can toss it in the Google play console - private apps. Hopefully it's something small & silly. Anybody else run into this? Thank you!
After following the discussion and statement in this post https://discussions.soti.net/thread/how-to-accept-write-settings-permission-programatically/ I was wondering for the "Write Settings Permission" issue, If Zebra can create an Image with SOTI Android Enterprise agent and granted preinstalled.
We are using Android Enterprise lockdown. We are happy to allow users to expand the status bar to see push notifications, however we are getting reports that sounds are not playing. Is this just controlled by the volume setting on the device or will the lockdown block the sounds?
All of our devices seem to periodically give the above error, but it is not clear why?
We are using AE with lockdown - Activity Suppression mode. We need to be able to force close one of the apps if it stops working, but I can't seem to find a way of doing this. Please could someone point me in the right direction?
We have locked down our devices so that the users can only see a specific app and the Wi-Fi settings. Users need to be able to connect to public Wi-Fi so we have added SOTI Surf with very locked down permissions. I'm trying to figure out what option under Web Content Filtering in the Surf settings would cover these Wi-Fi registration pages (and exclude it). I've attempted using trial and error but it would be handy if someone was able to confirm.
We are using Lockdown with Android Enterprise. We access the Wi-Fi settings using action://CONFIGURE_WIFI This seems to work well, however we have found that when changing between 2 networks the password is forgotten, so when switching back to the original network the user must re-enter the password. Is there a setting to adjust this or is this just how this works?
Tried to use mxconfig to disable the phone application and messaging application but it has failed. The error message in the log states "Script command is not supported by device (xmlconfig)"
Good Afternoon, i have enrolled a Samsung device with Android Enterprise. i created a test Android for work profile and configured a kiosk "lockdown" screen. there is 2 apps available in the Managed Google Play store that we need to push out the devices. I have created a rule and added the apps to the rule. after several minutes of creating the rule and assigning it to my device, the application catalog still is not showing me the apps. am i doing something wrong? I thought with android enterprise you could install apps from the managed google play store? please let me know if you need any device or version details i will be happy to provide it at your request. thanks in advance!
I have searched the forum and I know that there are issues with Android Enterprise disabling auto rotate. I haven't seen any new posts so i thought I would ask. Is there any way in Soti or StageNow that you can disable auto rotate with Android Enterprise?
We use the lockdown mode on 99% of our Android Enterprise devices (mostly Samsung Tab A's like the SM-T295) and part of our lockdown solution is to block the expansion of the notification bar. The problem i have is that if someone gets a text for example, the only notification they get is on the lockscreen when you unlock the device. Once the device is unlocked and on the lockdown mode there is no visual reminder that they have a notification. Is there a way of getting 'badge app icons' to show on the lockdown mode if the user gets a notification? (i.e. a little number 1 appears over the Messages app if they have an unread message)
Hello! I'm struggling with the installation of APKs into the work container of Android Enterprise (work managed profile on Samsung S9, Android 9). Installation via package in a profile doesn't work as well as the installation via Application Catalog (Enterprise Application). How can we install APKs into the work container? The log shows following errors: 8:47:32ErrorProfile "Test_AE - Pre-installed Apps" version 4 failed to install, because all of its payloads cannot be installed.8:47:32ErrorPackage "XXXXXXXXX" version 1.0 failed to install. File IO error on device. Check Storage/Permissions.8:47:32ErrorError message received from device (Installierung der Anwendung XXXXXXXX von Paket XXXXXXX.pcg Fehlgeschlagen)
