Hello, We would like to use a Windows 10 Tablet (Zebra ET55) in Kiosk Mode. One of the requirements is to be able to create a folder and then within the folder have a bunch of icons for programs we can launch. For instance, we might want a folder called Browsers. When the user clicks on the Folder, they then see “Microsoft Edge”, “Google Chrome” and “FireFox” as options. Is this possible with MobiControl Version 14.1.0.1152? Thanks. -- Val
Is there a way with the application catalog to have the apps automatically installed during the provision process vs. having to press the install button? This is for Zebra and Unitech devices, would make it a lot easier for remote provisioning.
Android 8.1.0 on a Samsung TAB A added lock screen applications. I'd like to write a script to disable the applications but when i checked the setting with watch settings it's a multipart value with each part separated by a ; Custom log (URI:content://settings/system SETTING:lock_application_shortcut VALUE:0;com.android.chrome/com.google.android.apps.chrome.Main;0;com.sec.android.app.camera/com.sec.android.app.camera.Camera;) Custom log (URI:content://settings/system SETTING:lock_application_shortcut VALUE:0;com.android.chrome/com.google.android.apps.chrome.Main;1;com.sec.android.app.camera/com.sec.android.app.camera.Camera;) There is a right and left application, the first part of the value is to turn the function on or off, the second part is the application location, the third part is the left or right location, and i think the 4th part is icon used. I've tried several variations of write secure setting but nothing seems to work. I've listed the variations used below. writesecuresetting lock_application_shortcut 0 writesecuresetting lock_application_shortcut 0 0 writesecuresetting lock_application_shortcut 0 0 0 0 writesecuresetting lock_application_shortcut 0;0;0;0 writesecuresetting lock_application_shortcut 0,0,0,0 writesecuresetting lock_application_shortcut 0;com.android.chrome/com.google.android.apps.chrome.Main;1;com.sec.android.app.camera/com.sec.android.app.camera.Camera; I also tried a few variations with the full string uses spaces and commas and nothing worked.
Hi, Do we know why we cannot assign Profiles to Virtual Group? I am using MOBI 13.4 you might ask, why do i need this? Our structure is to have folder per company branch, and each branch have 2 Enrollment Rules per Team (each team has his own devices), so we end up having for example, branch Seattle has Folder named Seattle, and under it we have devices for team1 and devices for team2. What we want is to push profiles based on DeviceName, ex: includes "team1"... and so force. I realized that when creating Virtual Group we could do that, but profiles cannot be assigned to Virtual Group! Also, i was thinking to add this filter in the profile Assignment, but the assignment doesn't give me the option to select by DeviceName. does one of these 2 features exist in newer versions of MOBI?
Hi, I enrolled 5 new Zebra MC33 devices 1 hour ago but the are not showing up in the MobiControl WebConsole. They are visible in the database using the view vw_Device_Information and the agent on the device also says that the devices are online. So why are they not visible? MobiControl Version: 14.3.1.1189
Running Soti v14.4.0.4857 I have a certificate authority configured with a template and all is working fine for initial enrollment on my iPads (iOS v12.3.1). The issue I am running into is that auto renewal is not working. I have the following options checked in the template: - Remove old certificates - Use auto renewal - Days before auto renewal: 2 For testing purposes I lowered the validity period of my certificate to three days. Beyond the certificate not auto renewing, it seems as though I cannot manually renew it from the Security tab of the device - the option to revoke and/or renew are not there. Note that the option to revoke and/or renew had been visible in the past as well as the information under the Template and Intended Purposes columns. Ideas?
I am looking for a way to completely configure all Android device settings upon enrollment. I have just begun to explore Enterprise enrollment but ave been looking during my last 4 years using Android Plus to save time when bringing new or reset devices into our cloud instance. Enterprise enrollment is a good start, with mandatory apps and what is afforded in the feature control profile, but I need to be able to set the following types of things for each tablet, and they all must be done manually at this point (for Samsung Tab S4): Connections/Wifi/Advanced: Disable "switch to mobile data" and "turn on wifi automatically" Sounds and Vibrations/Sound mode: set to mute Sounds and Vibrations/Sound mode: set vibration intensity to zero for notifications and feedback Display: Set screen mode to "Basic" Display: set timeout to 10 minutes Display: Navigation bar set to hide Lock screen: set to lock after 5 minutes, disable lock with power key There are about 25 settings in all that must be set, these are just some examples. I had been hoping for some way to "clone" a device's settings and apply it to other devices upon enrollment or via profile. I have tried using Android backup but that option is grayed out on my devices. Under Settings-->Google I see that "Backup" is toggled off, I can toggle it on but it always reverts back to "off". This is a managed device, enrolled using afw#mobicontrol at initialization, so maybe a device can't backup settings that would be shared by all other devices enrolled into that enterprise? I have looked at zero touch enrollment and it doesn't seem to offer the level of customization needed. In the past SOTI support has provided me with scripts to disable Dex mode and to prohibit the Max Power Save option, is there a way to reveal what the underlying commands and syntax would be for each item under Settings? Then I could script this myself. I would appreciate any advice or direction the group might have. I learn so much from lurking on this forum, and am grateful for any help. Kind regards, Matt

I can enroll one of the Zebra TC51 devices, but under the device details tab the Device ID field is "020000000000". I'm not able to enroll more than one device as it will try to use the same Device ID for any of the devices I try to enroll. What am I missing here? MobiControl version 14.2.0.2894 Android 7.1.2 Agent version 13.5.1 (Build 1234)
Is the McDeviceName written in any file on a TC52 Android Oreo Device Enrolled as a Android Enterprise Device? Or is there any way to write it to a file using MobiControl?
Hi, I would be interested in learning more about the role of the Zebra StageNow app when a device is enrolled using the afw#mobicontrol method. One of our clients has been using StageNow to configure their Zebra TC20 devices, and are now evaluating Soti MobiControl. The StageNow app seems to become disabled when the devices are reset and enrolled, i.e. StageNow is visible in the app list but is labelled as "stagenow not installed for this user". Is this a behaviour which is by design? I.e. once a device has been enrolled into Soti MobiControl, should you not use the StageNow app? Should we try to enable the StageNow app using enable_system_app (if so, what is the bundle ID?), or should we look into other methods? Regards, Daníel
How do i enable the camera app and gallery while the device is in lockdown kiosk mode on a TC77? The end users/drivers need to take pictures of delivered packages, and need access to the camera and gallery.

Hi, I am currently using MOBI 13.4 When Assigning the File Sync Rule Target, i am not seeing a place to add a filter like when we assign a profile. do we have this added in newer versions of MOBI?
Is it possible to script package studio to automatically build a package. I can automate uploading and editing profiles via the API, but I can't find a way to use package studio with a command line to build a new package. Am I missing something?
