    Android Enterprise Devices behaving differently despite having the same profile?

    Hi, we have 2 x end users with the exact same devices, identical setup in MobiControl, one experiencing unusual behaviour, the other business as usual. Problem device beeps for around 1 minute each time it receives a message and or email. Not really sure what I can do to fix the problem as both are setup in the same way?

    Soti MobiControl Lockdown Profile and recently used apps Solved Locked

    Hi, usually we are using the Enterprise Home Screen with our Zebra devices. Now we got some Panasonic tablets (FZ-A2A) and there the Lockdown Profile of Soti MobiControl is used. Version of MobiControl: 14.3.0.3144 Agent Version: 13.7.0.1031 On the Lockdown Screen are 2 symbols. If I click the "recently used apps" button on the right (the square), normally I get all opened applications. The problem is that the Lockscreen will be pushed over the app overview immediately. No app can be closed. Is there a way to "delay" the Lockdown screen here or is there an option that the "recently used app" window is allowed on the Lockdown screen? Thanks for your help. Stefan

    Apps Not Being Deleted When Profile is Deleted or Revoked

    This may be related to my other question about Custom Data not being updated.... but I will ask anyway.  I have an application on my devices that I just received an update for. After I updated the profile, the application would not update. I have questions out to the developers to find out whether they built the application differently (signing), but have not heard back yet. I removed the profile from the device and the application deleted on the device, but that Application list did not update (after the required checkin). So Mobicontrol still thinks it is installed.  When I try to install the updated version, the update fails as it thinks the application is already installed. Server: 14.1.2 Agent 1360_1662 Device: Zebra TC77 OS: Oreo Management Method: AEDO Environment: Not Using Google Play Store Thoughts? Thanks in advance. Jim

    Soti Surf 14.3.2 Trying to access soti.net on its own

    Hi, We are evaluating Soti Surf 14.3 for future deployment (14.2 used right now), mainly because 14.2 is not working after upgrade to oreo on a Zebra TC56 device, removing itself from the device. We use the devices on a closed network, to access local resources. I was surprised to see the firewall blocking page saying I'm trying to access www.soti.net which is blocked. The kiosk uses the surf://local_ip notation, and I just fail to understand what Soti would do something like that   Any way to get an updated version that is not trying to silently connect outside the network and block the functionality of the devices ? Thank you

    Mobicontrol Change User Mode Solved

    Hi, is there any way to change the user mode when I am in Mobicontrol App (Deviceconfiguration) or to switch into the lockscreen via remote? Device: Zebra TC51 Android+ (Android 7.1.1) We have sometimes the problem that the device starts up and doesn't switch into Lockscreen but changes the user mode to "User". So i didn't found a way to get to the lockscreen. The device is visible in Mobicontrol and can be remote controlled. The only solution for now is to factory reset the device and stage it again but this takes relative long time and i am looking for a smarter solution if possible.

    Is there a way to see where memory is being used?

    Hi, We have a customer that is using 200 Zebra TC56 devices but the memory on the devices is slowly filling up. I've had one of the devices sent back to me that is showing 7.69GB of 8.72GB is being used but when I look through the file manager I can only find a little over 5GB of files.  Is there a report or another method that I can use to see where memory is being used and how much?     Which folders/files and how much space is being used.  Appreciate any help/advise you can offer!

    Managed Google Play settings and updates

    A couple of issues related to Manage Google Play. We use TC70x running mainly Android Oreo in Lockdown Mode.Android Enterprise Work Managed Devices. Android Enterprise Bindings is set and Managed Google Play Applications installs with the latest version during enrollment.Agent version: 13.7.6.1004Mobicontrol: 14.3.1.1189 1) Profile for Managed Google Play settings is set as Application Updates: Always UpdateHowever, even with the profile installed on the device, app updates are just listed in the MobiControl app Application Catalog as a mandatory app with an available update. I can't find any entries in the device log that the update have tried to install.2) Profile for Managed Google Play settings (used for above) error during enrollment.- Because all of its payloads cannot be installed.- Device configured failed (Android Enterprise Google Play Policy). Configuration failed to apply.This profile seems to fail during enrollment most of the time and will not be successful until manually forcing package reinstallation (which is successful once enrollment has completed).
