    MobiControl disables automatic date and time Solved

    Hi, We have a few Samsung Galaxy TabS4 devices with mobicontrol agent ver. 13.7.5...the problem is, that after synchronization it disables "automatic date and time" in the settings, however we have an app, that this setting is mandatory for. Build number for the server is: 14.1.3.1587 So far I've tried turn on and off the "time synchronazation" in the advanced setting in mobicontrol, but that didn't helped. Thanks in advance!

    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,

But my problem is, I have create a package studio, right click add a file (appName.apk) and for the destination file /sdcard/AppToInstall the folder AppToInstall is create by a pre install script -> work every time My problem is, the profile is always well installed but the apk it's never INSIDE in the folder AppToInstall !!! 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

    Lockdown - allow access to public Wi-Fi pages

    We have locked down our devices so that the users can only see a specific app and the Wi-Fi settings. Users need to be able to connect to public Wi-Fi so we have added SOTI Surf with very locked down permissions. I'm trying to figure out what option under Web Content Filtering in the Surf settings would cover these Wi-Fi registration pages (and exclude it).  I've attempted using trial and error but it would be handy if someone was able to confirm.

    Wi-Fi settings - remember password

    We are using Lockdown with Android Enterprise. We access the Wi-Fi settings using action://CONFIGURE_WIFI This seems to work well, however we have found that when changing between 2 networks the password is forgotten, so when switching back to the original network the user must re-enter the password. Is there a setting to adjust this or is this just how this works?

In the mobicontrol connection settings it's set to permanent. Any suggestions, how to set it up to always be connected?
