Hi community, I'm using SOTI Surf on TC57X with Android Enterprise. (SOTI MobiControl 15.3.2.1072) When i open the camera dialog via Surf i've to choose between Camera and Data. When i use Chrome the Camera App opens automatically. Is there any way to configure this?
I use Android Enterprise Devices (Zebra TC57 + TC27) on MobiControl 15.1. I want to open a defined URL with chrome after clicking the OK button. This script just opens chrome, because i cant find a way to define a URL... var buttonLabels = ['OK'];mobicontrol.message.createInfoDialog('Text for Messagebox').withButtons(buttonLabels[0]).withCallback(onConfirm).show(); function onConfirm(result) {if (result.buttonIndex != null) {mobicontrol.log.info('The OK button was clicked');mobicontrol.app.start('com.android.chrome');}} This old sendintent script works fine but there's no way to put this in a showmessagebox. sendintent -a "https://google.com#Intent;action=android.intent.action.VIEW;end"
Hello, I have mobicontrol on version 14.4.9 and device zebra tc75x under android 7 enroll in android+ Agent version is on 14.1.6 I have a lockdown with 2 urls : - 1 http - 1 https these two links open a web page for login SAP Fiori. Actually, the url in http is open with chrome. the url in https is open with SotiSurf (surfs://) but we meet some problem with SAP UI5 there is a bug .. I've try with the new version of sotiSurf -> 15.3.2.3 but the same problem ... Ok we decide to remove the tag surfs:// and replace by https and apply profile. But when i click on the link nothing happen ... Normally chrome need to be open . Any idea about how to investigate about this ? thanks for all
I found this topic: https://discussions.soti.net/thread/chrome-lockdown-disable-url-bar/ and it seems to work for them.The script perhaps needs some edit or something, or i'm doing something wrong...not sure.Either way it did not work too well for me, then again Javascript is not a language I know too well.I generally stick to HTML / CSS.The way I have it right now is: <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> </style> <script> function openUrl() { var options = "location=no, toolbar=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=yes, resizable=yes"; var theUrl = "<MCLink0>"; // TEST URL alert(theUrl); window.open(theUrl, "", options); } </script> </head> <body> <div id="Main"> <div class="row"> <ul> <td onclick="openUrl();"> <li><A href ="<MCLink0>"><img src="<MCExeIcon0>" onerror="this.style.display='none'" /><div class="txt"><MCDISP0></div></a></li> <li><A href ="<MCLink1>"><img src="<MCExeIcon1>" onerror="this.style.display='none'" /><div class="txt"><MCDISP1></div></a></li> </td> </ul> </div> </body> </html> Ofcourse I have more CSS and etc in between, but this is just the layout I have put it in.Since the topic I mentioned is locked, does anyone else have experience with this?
We're noticing Chrome is slowly changing and introducing issues to local storage and Indexdb, so we want to lock chrome to a specific version and not allow the users to upgrade change (the little red up arrow, top right) Is this possible? Any help greatly appreciated.
Hi All, Is there a way to set Chrome as the default browser on all devices in a SOTI group? I've searched the forum, and I have found some questions regarding this topic from the past, but there were no solutions there. Thank you in advance,Csaba
I'd like to be able to add a Chrome browser bookmark to the home screen of our Zebra devices. Soti Surf isn't an option as Chrome is required for the bookmarked website. We have it set as a bookmark but the users would like it added to their home screen. I have reviewed a few other articles about this issue but haven't found a solution other than switching to Soti Surf which isn't an option. https://discussions.soti.net/thread/chrome-url-shortcut-on-home-screen/ https://discussions.soti.net/thread/website-urls-on-home-screen/
Hello there We have some webapplications which are only working 100% in Google Chrome, we want to use these on a iPad by a web clip. I've fond the url command "googlechrome://" to start in Chrome, but SOTI tells me that the string is not well formated. Is there any way to achieve this? Best Regards Beni
Hi all, hopefully someone of you already did it and can help: We want to set a Chrome Flag (https://web.dev/nfc/#use)(--enable-experimental-web-platform-features or chrome://flags/#enable-experimental-web-platform-features) How to set it via Mobicontrol? I don't see any possiblity to set it in the application settings in application catalogue rule but maybe i have overseen that. When i set it on Windows/Android i get this as a part of the chrome://local-state/: {"browser":{"enabled_labs_experiments":["enable-experimental-web-platform-features"]}}Is this what i have to enter into Configuration URI?It's hard to Test because Chrome is already part of a application catalogue rule, wo i don't know if this will make problem setting this in a second rule for same device.
I am adding an Application Catalog Rule for Google Chrome and in the Advanced tab I am configuring the Home Page and a managed book mark. It works without issue. I also have a Profile Configuration Payload for Webfilter - The web filter blocks * (all sites) and allows the end user URL only. Depending on which element gets assigned last is what works. It appears the two cancle each other out. For example if Chrome is updated by Google Play the settings work but then as soon as the web filter is applied the home page and managed bookmark are gone but the web filter works. If the web filter is applied first, it works great and all sites are blocked but as soon as google play applies the chrome with config the web filter stops working and you can brows anywhere.
Hi I need to disable Chrome so that updates are uninstalled on XCover 4 but MobiControl will not let me (Message saying "this action is disabled by MobiControl") I have tried removing from managed app catalog, blacklisting, afw_prevent_uninstall com.android.chrome disable. All to no avail. What else can I try? Once it's done I need to enable it again.
Hi MobiControl server - 14.4.9 Agents - various compatible Devices XCover 4 and XCover 4S In order to diagnose a problem I need to uninstall Chrome updates but I'm getting "The app is required by your device administrator and cannot be uninstalled" This is regardless whether I have Chrome in the Play Store as a Managed App or not. Any and all suggestions welcome.

I have some device with a lockdown and 6 urls on this lockdown each url open a web page from SAP (chrome browser), where user need to enter their credentials before to work.

I can"t understand .. thanks
First post here. Thought to pick your mind on this one. Before upgrading from SOTI MobiControl 14.3 to 15.1 I had profiles assigned with web filters covering the allowed URL's that were assigned to my devices. The profiles are applied to all devices and working fine. I had a couple of "Allow" rule types and one "Block" with the "*" as the URL. This worked perfectly fine. Users could only browse to the Allowed URL's and all other sites were blocked due to the usage of "*" I now tried to make changes to one of the filters and it gives me an error. Doesn't allow me to save it anymore. This forces me to remove the "*" as a Block rule type and this will give access to all sites when users try to browse using e.g. Chrome. I guess this is due to some changes in 15.1 or any versions after 14.3... Any tip on what I can do here is appreciated.
