    Nightly Maintenance Routines Occupies 100 % Processing power for Hours

    Hi, We are on MobiControl v. 13.4.0.4167. We have lately experienced that the nightly maintaince (we believe it is that as this starts from midnight) are using 100 % CPU power for some hours (up to 6 hours). How do we get more information about what is causing this high level of CPU processing for an extensive period of time. Has somebody else experienced the same and found a solution? Searching thought the forum, I did not find anything. Thanks for helping! Regards Dan

    Opening URL in SOTI Surf using a NFC tag

    The usecase: A customer of ours uses truckscales/weighbridges. The weight is being shown on a specific URL, one for each scale/bridge. Truck drivers are using Zebra TC57 devices under our control, using a lockdown and SOTI Surf installed. This customer does not want their truck drivers to freely use a browser. They also don't want 135 different accessible URL's on some kind of landing page, truck drivers could choose the wrong truckscale and report the wrong weight. Ideally they want their truck driver to scan a NFC tag on a truckscale which leads them to that one specific page, in SOTI Surf (not Chrome). This should be possible by using an intent and encoding that into the NFC tags, right? Basically telling the Zebra TC57 to open SOTI Surf and to surf towards a specific url. Browsing through these forums, I found two possibilities but neither seems to work: intent:https://mobicoach.eu#Intent;action=Intent.ACTION_VIEW;component=net.soti.surf/net.soti.surf.ui.activities.SplashActintent:https://mobicoach.eu#Intent;scheme=https;action=android.intent.action.VIEW;component=net.soti.surf;end Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

    Is there a way to set the language of the Enterprise Keyboard with Mobicontrol independend of the language of Android itself ?

    Hello, I have to set with the help of MobiControl to get the same result as doing manually with system->language->virtual keyboard->not use system language->set required language. Devices are Zebra TC52 with Android 10 and AEDO. Also in the Zebra Enterprise Keyboard API/MX I didnt find a way to do that beside creating a whole new custom keyboard layout, but for just one setting doing a new layout is hugh effort. Martin

    Device Manager Android Uninstalling Apps

    Recently I started moving from iOS devices to Android for retail handheld mobile computers and enrolled them into Device Manager. Starting August 1st with the latest update of Device Manager that Meraki released I have had all of my apps continuously install and uninstall. I submitted a case with them and the most I have gotten is that it is a known bug and that there is no timeline for a fix, this has been 2 months now. I think it is important to call out Cisco for their extremely poor development practices with Android, I found this "bug" within an hour of Device Manager updating, there is no way that Cisco tested this app before releasing it. I am heavily considering moving to SOTI MobiControl. Has anyone else had any similar experiences with Meraki MDM?

    Getting error when approving pending actions on Honeywell CK75

    Adding new devices and when it pops up with the pending actions menu and I click on "work profile provisioning" I get the following error:Oops! Work profile can't be created because you've reached the maximum number of users on your device. Remove at least one user and try again." I am not sure what users they are referring to. I am the only one on the device.  I have setup one device without issue and 2 other devices are getting this error.  I would ignore it if I could, but it pops up constantly making it useless for my end users.  I noticed on the Device Details within MobiControl, the device that is working properly says "Device Kind   Android Enterprise" and the devices that are having issues both say "Device Kind   Android Plus".  I find this odd as I used the same APK for both of them (GoogleMobiControl1430_1000.apk) and they are the same make and model devices, Honeywell CK75.  I am new to Mobicontrol so any help would be appreciated.  If I need to post more info, please let me know and I will do so.

    Is it possible to prioritize the sequence of profil installation?

    We have devices where we want to install a lot of profiles. My problem is, that the lockdown is installed before the other profile installations are finished. So the user cannot finish the other actions at the device, because it is in the lockdown mode. I hope u can understand my problem. Can i prioritize the sequence of the installation on the device, for example: First --> Authentification Second --> AppInstall Third --> Lockdown Thanks for your help!

    How do I find devices with incorrect times? Solved Locked

    Hello, We are finding some of our Android Zebra TC56's occasionally end up with incorrect times/timezones. We force time sync to our deployment server through Advanced Configurations, but we still have some devices where the time is wildly off. Is there a way to run a report on this in SOTI to find troublesome devices? At the very least I could push a StageNow profile to them forcing clock settings. Thanks!

    Offline Android device not enrolling - Invalid URL

    Hello, I have a few devices that i can enroll as a work profile but not as an enterprise device. We require the enterprise solution so we can remote control the devices if and when they need some troubleshooting. Our MobiControl server sits on xxx.xxx.53.53 and the Zebra MC93s are situated on a closed WiFi Network that gives the device xxx.xxx.55.124 Both IPs are reachable from both sides. I can ping the server from the Android device and i can ping the device from the 53 subnet. The WiFi that the scanners are has no internet connection and is an internal network. I asked the question before if anyone has come across being unable to enroll devices and i was told that there should be no issue enrolling these scanners on a network that is on our own WAN with no internet connection. We are unable to give the devices internet connection due to security policies in the warehouses we are located. Our enrollment server address that the rule generates is xxx.xxx.53.108 but when i try the server address on the enrollment part of the MobiControl app on the device, it throws a "Invalid URL" prompt. When using the Enrollment ID i just get an "Enrollment Failed" message. Does anyone have any pointers i can try?

    MDM Advice

    Anyone have any opinions on Mobile Device Management applications\programs? Business needs dictate that they need Live GeoFencing for tracking purposes. Other than that it's all preference for the IT dept.  It's a user base of about 50 devices. We currently have no plan or management system.  https://jpgtopdf.onl/Since I am the Help Desk/Jr SysAdmin/multi-hat guy, I have been tasked with finding a solution. Currently looking at SOTI, MaaS360, waiting on XenMobile. Device environment includes iOS and Android devices.  https://1921681001.id/ Any thoughts? Please and thank you. https://19216811.cam/

    Custom Log causing application kickout

    Hello, Using MobiControl 15.1, Zebra TC70 running 5.1.1 and TC70x on Nougat 7.1.2. We have been able to track an issue where our team members are using Enterprise Browser and they are "kicked out" of what they are doing and presented with the Mobicontrol lockdown screen, requiring them to re-login to websites, etc. to continue. Obviously, this is very frustrating for our team members. This coincides with an Information event in the log file stating: Custom Log (This device has been switched to user mode) The device agent log gives this information at the time of occurrence:2020-07-22 13:03:54.773|injector|E|N/A|[net.soti.mobicontrol.df.q] injector| DUPLICATED subscription - class: net.soti.mobicontrol.email.b.b|2020-07-22 13:03:54.941|injector|E|N/A|[net.soti.mobicontrol.df.q] injector| DUPLICATED subscription - class: net.soti.mobicontrol.featurecontrol.eg|2020-07-22 13:03:55.763|injector|E|N/A|[net.soti.mobicontrol.df.q] injector| DUPLICATED subscription - class: net.soti.mobicontrol.script.ab|2020-07-22 13:03:55.906|injector|E|N/A|[net.soti.mobicontrol.df.q] injector| DUPLICATED subscription - class: net.soti.mobicontrol.admin.DeviceAdminNotificationManager|2020-07-22 13:03:55.987|injector|E|N/A|[net.soti.mobicontrol.df.q] injector| DUPLICATED subscription - class: net.soti.mobicontrol.wifi.bl|2020-07-22 13:03:56.032|injector|E|N/A|[net.soti.mobicontrol.df.q] injector| DUPLICATED subscription - class: net.soti.mobicontrol.admin.DeviceAdminNotificationManager|2020-07-22 13:03:56.066|injector|E|N/A|[net.soti.mobicontrol.df.q] injector| DUPLICATED subscription - class: net.soti.mobicontrol.wifi.bl|2020-07-22 13:03:56.310|injector|E|N/A|[net.soti.mobicontrol.df.q] injector| DUPLICATED subscription - class: net.soti.mobicontrol.email.b.b|2020-07-22 13:03:58.116|execution-pipeline|E|N/A|[dy][handleApplyException] - applying - [DisableCellularData]|java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: No virtual method setMobileDataEnabled(Z)V in class Landroid/net/ConnectivityManager;

    Removing a revoked profile from device configurations page Solved Locked

    We are new SOTI user and currently using Mobicontrol 15.1.x and trying to setup a new Zebra MC3390 profile for a device. Wondering if there is a way to remove profile with "Administratively removed" status on a device configuration tab ? So far the only way we can see to do it is by permanently deleting the actual profile itself. Is it by design any profile that is revoked will always visibly shown on a device configurations? Appreciate the help.
