Have assigned App Policy to Galaxy tablet, but under Configurations it says "No App Policy Found." The device has been re-enrolled and moved to another group after activation. When moving the tablet to the other group, I have tried with and without "Maintain "Overridden" Advanced Configurations specified to selected device(s)." Apps are being pulled from Google Play.
I believe an app update is causing an issue and I want to stop either that app, or if I have to all apps, until a new version hits the Play Store. I'm sure I've done this before but I cannot for the life of me remember it. MobiControl 15.5 Android Devices running 8.1.0 upwards.
Hello, I'm facing an issue trying to automate edge and other browser (cannot use SOTI surf for this sadly..) cache cleaning. i have seen a tons of post regarding cache cleaning but mostly using wipeapplication. Something that we cannot use at all. Too much troubles caused by the total wipe. Is there anyway to have a script ? Seen DDMOD@SOTI saying that it was on the roadmap Any news or any other ideas. Automatic script/Button on the lockdown all accepted at this point.. Thanks in advance,
Is there a possibility to display a device name or IMEI in the console alert message? (Name would be better) I tried %devicename% and %imei% which are working well in scripting but not here. I saw somewhere here that not all macros are supported here but maybe there's another way? Or is there somekind of logging where i can see those messages and from which device they came from?
Can you call settings-manager settings (activity´s) with a script under android enterprise? If so, any examples would be appreciated.
After Upgrading to Agent-Version 15.1.5 Build 1049 all devices show system message "Update google play services" (Mobicontrol is only executed when updating Google Play Services) (freely translated from german message). We think there is no chance to skip the update because the message apears periodically. So we want to know if there is a chance to perform the update of Google Play Services automatically. The devices (>900) are enrolled as device Family "Android Plus" and are currently not assigned to a Google account. Thank you in advance.
Hi! I know it has been discussed before but with how fast they add features in android, I was wondering if there is already the possibility of changing this name through a script or something similar
Hello, We have some devices that were originally enrolled using an enrollment rule that did not have Managed Google Play enabled. Is there a way to enable this without having to unenroll each device and reenroll?
I read another thread that indicated there is no script to automatically log users out of shared device mode after a period of inactivity. This should be in a future release, but is not yet available. As an alternate solution, we have planned downtime with the units and I would like to schedule an auto-log-off event. Is there a way to schedule this log-out event? (e.g., 1900 every day?)
Hi. We're moving from windows mobile to android. I created the default enrollment profile and have connected the TC52 Android 8.1 to it successfully. When I try to enroll a TC52 Android 10 devices it fails. I can see it in MobiControl webconsole logs that shows it being added. Any idea what is different for enrollment for a version 8.1 vs 10 ?
We've been able to deploy our iOS App to App Store Connect but the process is very strict and we fear that it will be a mess when we will have to fix some bugs. When I'm using XCode, I see it is possible to choose Entreprise as a method of distribution : If I understand it correctly, the users can download directly the IPA file stored somewhere on a server with this method,. I'm wondering if SOTI is able to download that IPA file and deploy it on our devices using this method ? I ask because in the SOTI documentations, I've found this : https://soti.net/mc/help/v14.1/en/console/data/sotihub/hub_deploy_app_packages.html Where I can read that : Note: This procedure is only applicable to Android (4.1+) devices. While the SOTI Hub app is available on iOS devices, Apple's security restrictions prevent SOTI from providing an .ipa file outside of the Apple App Store. So, is it possible to find an easier solution than uploading the app to App Store Connect ?
Does anyone has experience with rolling out Macs via Soti? We managed most things, i think but we have some programs not deployed via app store which need a installation script. There's no way like on android to create a package and deploy it to MAC devices, so does anyone knows a possibility to do so?
Hello all, We have migrate to mobicontrol v14.3 to version 15.5.1 there some days all seems to be good ... But, yesturday for one ticket help desk we need to find a device (localisation) enroll into android + (zebra tc75x device android 7). We try to modify the rule and applies to the device ..but every time we receive server error on admin console ! And when i go to the server utility and try to read the log now i have application not found.. Any one have idea about how to read log ? log is normally place on c program data soti perhpas it's just a problem about the path .. Before to migrate it was possible to read the log. For the rule of location, if you have some idea don't hesitate .. thanks for all christophe
Hi everyone , Running on a strange issue right now. Maybe it's happening for a while...not sure, as Support Team only reported this one to me earlier this week. We Work on Mobicontrol 15.5.1.1010 Using Memor 10 Problem is here, it seems that périodically some of them just keep Connecting / Disconnecting every minute ...and this can keep going for hours... I've tried to retrieve some log from logcat , the only thing that seems redundant is this part of the log. 06-16 08:45:16.156 E/DevicePolicyManager( 977): Not holding DPMS lock.06-16 08:45:16.156

reasons...if i make to get a remote control on the device, it's stop connect / Disconnect problem for few time. Did thought it have something to do with a sleep mode or so, but none of that is activated ? and as all our devices share the same config, it would impact everyone at the ame time (no one works on night) But basically i had only a bunch that triggered the alert this night for example.. ?! Any adivce would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance ,
Hello, We are trying to ensure our Zebra TC56's can not be factory reset. If I add the SOTI factory reset protection to a device, and then do a reset I can easily get around the prompt by scanning a barcode to skip the google setup. So this seems pretty pointless. Is there any other way to lock this down in SOTI? I've seen some MDM's display a constant pop up and force shut down even after a factory reset. Thanks!
