    Location service policy per device OU Solved Locked

    We have a requirement for BYOD devices to disable location services as users are not comfortable with IT department collecting this information. At the same time we would like to keep the location services for company owned devices like tablets, laptop's etc. Is it possible to have a separated policy for location service per device OU? Thanks,

    permissions for third party apps to read the IMEI on Android 10

    Hi there, we've got a problem with a customer app and Android 10. Our Customer is using the IMEI of the device, to validate the usage of the app. With Android 9, the customer app had no problem requesting the IMEI directly from the device. Now with Android 10, there are some changes and the app don't got the needed permissions (link). The app needs the READ_PRIVILEGED_PHONE_STATE permission or have to be the device owner. As far as I know, I've got no possibility to set these permissions for this app through SOTI - or do I?  Is there somebody who's familiar with this problem and got any workaround? Maybe requesting the IMEI from the MobiControl Agent? I'm not a developer so I could really need some help with this. MobiControl: v15.1 Agent: 14.2.0.1069 Device: Samsung Galaxy A40 EE (Android 10) Management Method: Android Enterprise, Fully Managed / Lockdown -> we are using Knox Configure and Knox Mobile Enrollment  Thank you, Daniel

    Any ways to prevent a child group from inherting parent's settings?

    Hi, We have several groups set up and configured at the start of configuring Mobicontrol. Now, every time we add a new child group, it automatically inherits all the profiles and app rules from the parent and we would have to go through every single one of the profiles/app rules to uncheck it from applying to the new child group. Is there a setting to prevent a new child group from inheriting? Thank you so much!

    Compliance Policys

    Hello SOTI Team, i have one question about compliance policys , you have the option to manually run them, i was wondering then when are they automaticly run by the system? At Device Check in? At 12 Midnight? I try to split automatic processes like sending reports evenly over the day to keep system load down. So i was curious. Also it would be nice if there was an option to copy a rule :)

    Best practice for lockdown for multiple device types? + some minor issues Solved

    Hello, We are currently using a mixture of Telecom Expense Management (TEM) and a simple HTML lockdown we've developed internally. The issue we are currently facing is since we have such various devices in our possession, developing a lockdown and system to issue it is challenging.  We currently only have one lockdown profile and this has some issues with some models. We've discovered today that some of our devices have different application names for the dialer. One uses "com.samsung.android.dialer" and the others seem to use "com.samsung.android.contacts/com.android.dialer.DialtactsActivity" from my testing.  Is it possible to include two package names in the lockdown but only show the one installed on the device? I'm not entirely against having another profile, but I feel like it might be more work in the future if we ever need to modify these profiles later on.  Another issue that we've encountered is that the user cannot modify settings on the device. I believe in the past they were able to modify the device settings unless we checked the "disable settings changes" under the status bar in the lockdown menu. I could technically install the SOTI settings application, and will likely do so, but it does not have the ability to adjust the hotspot on the device and some of our users need access to modify the hotspot settings. MobiControl Version: 14.4.8.1043 Agent version: 14.1.8.1111 Models: S7, S8, S8+, S9, S9+, Note8, Note9, Note10, A50 (some models are AT&T firmware and some unlocked) OS: 7.11, 8.0, 8.1, 9.0, and 10. DA+ 95% majority, only about 10-11 devices enrolled with AE.
