    I'm unable to take over Samsung devices in SOTI MobiControl without acceptance from the user.Once the user has accepted my request i'm also unable to do any actions on the device.I'm only able to look. I need to be able to take over any samsung device with full control and without any interference of the user. I tried using several plugins but none are working.

    Silent Client Certificate Access from Android App with SOTI-deployed Certificates

    We are working with a custom CA.pem, client certificate (.crt), and private key (.key) that need to be installed on Android devices managed by SOTI MobiControl.We currently install the certificates using a profile via Configuration > Certificate, and this part works. However, when our Android application attempts to access the client certificate (e.g., via KeyChain or during HTTPS request), the system prompt appears asking the user to allow access or select a certificate.Our goal is to avoid any user interaction and access the certificate silently within the app.Questions:  1.  Is it possible to install the client certificate in a specific system store or trusted credential store where our app can access it silently?  2.  Does SOTI MobiControl support installing certificates as Device Owner in a way that grants system-level access (without prompting the user)?  3.  Can we specify the certificate alias during deployment, so the app can reference it directly via KeyStore or other Android APIs?  4.  Are there any specific permissions or profile settings we need to apply in SOTI to allow background access to the client certificate?Current Setup:  •  Android devices are fully managed via SOTI (Device Owner mode)  •  Certificate deployed using Configuration > Certificate profile  •  Certificate alias is known and available in the app  •  Access using Android KeyChain or KeyStore.getInstance("AndroidKeyStore") leads to user promptWe are looking for a secure and silent way to access client cert + private key for mutual TLS communication in our app.

    Enterprise Binding Reset Account - Button Disabled

    Hi there, I'm working on resetting Enterprise Binding of the devices. The feature which SOTI introduced in v15.1. Source: https://docs.soti.net/soti-mobicontrol/release-notes/ "Improved Reset Account device action to allow administrators to create new or reset existing Managed Google Play accounts on devices without using a factory reset" Issue: Most of the devices got reset with the account while in some of the devices Reset button is completely disabled. I checked MobiControl app there is no pending action also Google Play Services and Play Store are enable.Any idea on how to fix this without reenrolling the device? SOTI Version: 15.5.2.1003

    Existing Images

    The Existing Images dropdown in LockDown contains too many files not being used and scrolling through them takes forever.  Some of these need to be removed.  There is nothing in the content library.  Where else are these images stored? This is for an android+ work managed device hosted on the soti web console.

    SOTI Surf refreshes when docking or undocking

    Hi, we are using SOTI Surf with Zebra ET45 Tablets in our production environment where we are running a SAP application inside the SOTI Surf. When you Dock the tablet the Website refreshes and terminates the login. Is there any setting related to this? I think it might have something to do with the zoom and that the browser wants to fit the new screen that is connected to the docking station. Love to hear your thoughts best regards Manuel

    Deploying files into the users home/Library folder impossible due to insufficient permissions

    I am trying to deploy a Powerpoint template to the proper directory (/Users/<username>/Group Containers/....) on all managed Macs. Copying the template into the /tmp folder on the Macs works, but.... When I execute the post download script, the copying / moving (with cp or mv) to the proper directory fails due to insufficient permissions of the destination folder (/Users/<username>/Group Containers/....). However, the script is executed as root. So the permissions should be sufficient. But still it does not work.  I researched a little: it might be that this is connected to the security measures on OSX Sequoia. My question: Is there any way to copy the template into the intended folder? Any special tricks with MobiControl? Any hint?
