    Antivirus version - Bitdefender Cloud | Bitdefender SDK Solved

    Hi all, During a routine check, I found that the new version is present on only 7% of the devices in the fleet. Does anyone know what could be the cause? Could anyone else confirm that this update seems "random"? Antivirus Version 2.0.1023 vs 2.4.1095

    Attempting to disable HXLogger via SOTI Mobicontrol Solved

    Hello all, I'm running into app crashes with one of our internal applications and one of the solutions our team thought up of was that HXLogger is the perpetrator. Thinking this, our idea is to try and disable HXLogger remotely, preferably using SOTI. I've tried several methods including scripts, profiles, and packages to no avail. HXLogger is turned on through Honeywell Enterprise Provisioner and I thought I turned it off there but that didn't work out either. We are running Android 12 on the Honeywell CT47's. Does anyone know how to disable HXLogger remotely or any place one can start?

    Android Enterprise: Script to detect if "special permissions" were successfully granted to SOTI agent by the user?

    Hi all According to my information, there is currently no way to have the "special permissions" (device admin, draw over other apps, access to notifications etc.) granted to the SOTI agent automatically after enrolling a device. So after enrolling, the user must manually grant the SOTI agent these special permissions.  Is this correct so far or am I missing something?  Assuming the above is correct, I want to implement the following enrollment process:  the device is enrolled in SOTI and is placed in a staging group  this group contains a profile that installs various required apps from Managed Google Play and sends a message to the device asking the user to grant the SOTI agent all requested (special) permissions.  as soon as the special permissions were granted by the user, I want to relocate the device to a different group.  And this brings me to you: can anyone tell me how I can detect if the special permissions were granted to the SOTI agent? Either by running a script on the device or by any other (easier) means?  I was playing around with compliance policies and trying to figure out a way to detect if the special permissions were granted (so I'd flag the device as non-compliant as long as the permissions were not granted) but I couldn't find a way to do this.  I assume I need a script that runs on the device to check if the permissions were granted and then writes this information to an INI-file that I can then use as a custom data to check and move the device accordingly.  But I have no idea how to write a script that checks these permissions. Does anyone know? (Once I know how to determine if the permissions were granted via script, I think I'll be able to figure out how to write this output to an INI-file and then use it as a custom data - it's just the actual check of the permissions that is causing me issues.) Is that the best way to reach this goal? Or are there other options that you'd recommend?  Thanks in advance!- Jake

    Agent launch error

    Hello! I encountered the following issue: the SOTI agent does not start after installation on macOS. The device is using basic profiles "Allow SOTI MobiControl agent in background", "App Catalog for macOS", and "Remote Control for macOS", installed on the SOTI server. In the MC.log on the macOS device, I see the following: 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Sec: Initializing certificate Creation 2025/04/30 15:16:12 (1f561c840) Sec: Deleting certificate from keychain 2025/04/30 15:16:13 (1f561c840) Sec: Error saving Private key to Keychain: -25300 2025/04/30 15:16:13 (16dbeb000) Ini: Remove profile 1 "/" 2025/04/30 15:16:15 (1f561c840) Agent Start...(CustomBuildInfoString: (null)) 2025/04/30 15:16:15 (16dbeb000) ContentMgmtMgr: This is probably a case of upgrading Old Agent to a newer Version.

If the user manually starts the agent, it does not connect to the SOTI server and displays the error "App Not Configured". However, if Check-in is initiated, the SOTI agent will connect to the server afterward. Has anyone encountered this issue?

    Google Chrome not updating on Android Enterprise Devices

    Hi, we have over 2000 devices but 500 are refusing to update Google Chrome. We have tracked the issue down to the fact that something has pulled the default browser to something else meaning that Chrome needs to be re-enabled in the Playstore (as per screen below) before It will update itself Connecting to each phone manually and clicking "Enable" makes the updates flow again but I don't fancy doing that on 50 phones. Any thoughts on how this coulkd be automated ???

    Google Keyboard Configurations

    We have Zebra TC21's running Android 13.  One of the requests from our business team is that the keyboard be configured to not use the suggestion strip, and have the number keys there instead. This is very simple if you have the phone. Keyboard Setting => Text Correction => Show Suggestions (off). I cannot however find a way to do that through SOTI.  Anyone done this before?

Any suggestions?
