    Connecting on-premise MobiControl to Azure AD

    We're looking at leveraging the new User Enrollment feature of iOS 13 and are having a tough time connecting our on-prem MobiControl instance to our Azure AD. We have followed the instructions here (https://www.soti.net/mc/help/v14.0/en/console/system/ldap/azure_authenticate_mc.html) but are confused about number 3 ("Configure permissions for the application"). In Azure, we have granted "Directory.Read.All" permissions for the app and we are fairly certain we have entered everything correctly but we cannot get it to work. When searching the directory (through the Security tab), we get "The server could not complete your request. An internal error occurred." In the ManagementService logs it looks like it is failing while trying to acquire a token. Has anyone had similar issues? We have already synced to AD using a traditional LDAP connection, but we would like to figure out how to connect to Azure as well.

    Agent on ZEBRA TC56 disconnects itself Solved

    We have a lot of TC56 in the filed and all keep connection to MobiControl server if there is a Wifi or mobile connection.But on a view devices the agent gets disconnected even if there is an active network connection (other apps can work well over the internet). After a reset the MobiControl agent remains disconnected. You can only get the agent connected if you tap on the “Agent Status” in the Device configuration view of the MobiControl agent. But it gets disconnected after a few minutes again. The connection settings are Perisistent for these devices (like for all other devices) How can I get these devices pemanently online again? MobiControl version: 14.4.3 Android Enterprise Agent Versio: several 13.6.0 - 14.0.0

    Full Wiping (including Enterprise Partition) of Zebra devices

    MobiControl device agent and some other MDM/EMM related files are often not wiped even after a normal factory reset on Zebra dervices.   The reason is probably due to the fact that such files are stored in a secured enterprise partition different from the normal partition for other apps and data.  So, what are the possible procedures  to remotely wipe everything on a Zebra device?  If MX commands in .xml file  are needed, can anyone provide example?  Is that any other approach (e.g. using Zebra MX utility software) if the device is on hand (can thus can get connected via a USB cable)?

    Instalation of Android+ on generic Android 7.1.2 TV

    Hello all, I have the next problem : I have a generic-no brand Android 7.1.2 TV. My goal is to install a lockdown mode on it and allow access to only one webpage. The problem I have is next:I have no idea what specific OEM agent to download, as the tv has no brand. The only info I could get for it is that it is a "rockchip-rk3288". If i try to download the Android Enterprise application from Google Play, i can enroll the TV with a Android+ code , but not with an Android Enterprise code(INVALID ENROLLEMENT ID ERROR). Why is that a problem? Because if I enroll it with a Android+ Code, after the enrollement it will delete that agent and install a work profile.So, I will have a device registered as Android+, but which in fact is Android Enterprise. So I can not assign any profiles to it. Any solutions?Cheers,

I've try to change the destination path with add / or delete / before sdcard ...but nothing work.. Also, I have open again the package studio an replace the apk file by a file txt file, replace the package inside the profile -> assign profile -> result the file is well inside the folder AppToInstall :) Someone can tell me, how i can copy an apk to a folder inside the folder structure ? That's enough strange .. thanks for your time
