    Group Detail Location

    Hi all, Recently in v15 we got new feature that really ncie in Group Detail Location (my MC version is 15.3.0.6711). We can see location of devices in 1 group. One question about this feature, why the location map didn't update itself? I check the Location but 1 device seems not update, i should check curent location myself and after that the location update in map. Is there any method to keep the device location updated automatically everytime we check the group detail location? Thanks & regards, Randy

    Profile Configurations goes blank when a new Profile Version gets created after doing a PUT on MobiControl/api/profiles/{referenceId}/packages

    We are currently trying to automate the release process using the MobiControl API and we've encountered an issue where the Configurations in a Profile get lost when a new Profile Version is created via MobiControl/api/profiles/{referenceId}/packages Our automation process is roughly like this: Get a token.Send POST to MobiControl/api/tokenThis works. Upload a new version of our appSend POST to MobiControl/api/packagesThis works. Retrieve the Packages list for the Profile we want to updateSend GET to MobiControl/api/profiles/{$profileReferenceId}/packagesThis works. Update the Profile, using the list from the step before and updating our app version number to the latest but leaving other packages as isSend PUT to MobiControl/api/profiles/{$profileReferenceId}/packagesThis works BUT we cannot set the Profile Configurations and they do not seem to get copied like when we do this manually in MobiControl WebConsole by doing Edit on a Profile. Assign the Profile to a Device Group to push out the latest version of the appSend PUT to MobiControl/api/profiles/{$profileReferenceId}/assignment So this leaves us with some questions: - Is this a bug where the Profile Configurations don't get copied over to a new Version when using the API? - Is there any way to set the Profile Configurations using the API? Here is a screenshot of how the Profile looks before running the automation process: Here is a screenshot of how the Profile looks after running the automation process:

    Launching directly to Content Library tab from lockdown

    We are trying to create a link to some documents through a lockdown profile on Android Plus. so far I have a link to mobicontrol Launch://net.soti.mobicontrol.androidwork This takes me to the device configuration screen though, and we need it to go directly to the Content library tab to prevent headaches with users. so far I have tried net.soti.mobicontrol.ui.contentlibrary as well as a few similar versions but none work. Apparently you can't link directly to the documents which would be ideal, so I am trying to get the user as close to where they need to be as possible.

    Hidden notification bar - Android 11

    Hi, We have a problem after Android update to version 11. We are using Samsung T-505 with the latest mobi agent. We don't see notification bar - when I set admin mode and restart a device, notification bar is visible. After next reset with user mode, notification bar is hidden (empty bar). After set admin mode, we can open notification bar (swipe down) only in home page, other page don't have this option. I don't know how I can repair this. Do you have any ideas?

    Android+ write to an .ini file to have Geofence name as Custom Data? Solved Locked

    Hi, I have a geofence rule set up that starts an application to send an SMS message when the geofence is entered/exited.  I've tried to find a way to include which geofence name in the SMS but am unable to get that information on to the device for the application to read.  The application doesn't support intent extras, but this may be the way to go if MC can't do it. What I want is to have a script run when the geofence is entered that updates an .ini file with the name of the geofence, e.g.    [Geofence]    value=LocationNamehere Has anyone tried this?  Any solutions? We're using MobiControl v13 and the devices are mostly running Kitkat. I want a simple, elegant  solution. I don't want to use relocation/file sync rules if possible. Thanks in advance Adam.

    Why xml files does not execute on the devices Solved Locked

    I used stage now to create an XML file that changes the screen timeout on the devices (Zebra TC21), the test code worked when scanned by the device, but when I used the XML file to create a package using Package Studio and added it to a profile in SOTI, that didn't work. I used a post-install script when creating the package. And by the way, the profile installed the XML file on the device's SDcard but still looks like it did not execute itself. Your help would be very much appreciated. Thank you,

    cannot perform a device check-in

    Afternoon everyone. i have an issue with Mobicontrol in that it will not let me request a check-in to any device. we are on version 15.1.2.1035 and it in on premise. a few months back we paid for SOTI to migrate our server to Azure and since then i cannot get any device to check-in also not sure if its related but if a change or create a package this is not immediately pushed to the devices, i believe the only time the devices actually update is when they request a check-in themselves which is currently set to every 2 hours any advice on what to check is much appreciated

    Auto-accept Terms and Conditions of E-FOTA One Agent

    Hi there, I'm looking for a possibility to automate the confirmation of the terms and conditions, when enrolling the Samsung Knox E-FOTA One App to Tablets (SM-T505). After installation of the agent via package, I start the agent with a Task ("start com.samsung.android.knox.core.efota"), which works well. In Step 2 of the installation, the user needs to click "Accept and Continue", to register the agent completely. See the following link for details: Samsung Documentation -> Step 2 With "identify_activity" I've received the following activity: com.samsung.android.knox.core.efota/com.samsung.android.knox.efota.activities.EnrollmentActivity But as I'm not an expert, when it goes to scripting, maybe somebody can help me here? Maybe this could work via sendintent? Thanks for your help!  Best, Daniel
