Wondering if anyone has deployed multiple deployment servers here and what it takes from a server/resource perspective and how it impacts the Management Console experience. This question is coming from a call I had with SOTI Support last week about CE5 devices that were not able to enroll into 14.1 because 14.1 installs with a SHA2 root cert and CE5 devices can only use SHA1. They also mentioned that If I did want to enroll CE5 (along with SHA2 compatible devices) then I'd have to set up a 2nd deployment server and install a SHA1 cert. I'm going to be doing some digging on my own and may even reopen the previous case but would like to hear your thoughts. Also, @SOTI , if you have any release notes specifically for what version this root cert change was made, I'd like to see that. Though testing, my 13.3 env can enroll CE5 devices and does not have the "Force SHA1" option in the enrollment rule settings so I'm assuming it's using SHA1. If 13.4 uses SHA1 as well then I will just recommend this version until customers upgrade past CE5 devices. Thanks, Ben
Hi, Just wondering if any one knows of a way to automate this pop up. We have recently upgrade mobicontrol from v13.3 to v14.1 and are running a few test on our Android+ device and with each agent upgrade they user will get prompted with this pop-up. Is there an automated or silent way to update the agent on user devices without having this pop up? We currently have over 1700+ devices and having this pop up on everyone phone is not ideal when deploying across multiple cities. Any help with he appreciated.
Hi, Just wondering if anyone would know if there is a script to turn on the GPS on android phones. Currently using samsung phones (xcover4 and a3/a5) and have noticed that when trying to use the location service it doesnt automatically or temporarily turn on the devices GPS as the location service fails when the GPS is turned off on the device. So was wondering if there was a script we can send to the phone to turn on the GPS so we can run the location service to find phones user have lost

Hi We want to enroll Android for Work (Andoid Enterprise) Devices with the QR Code at the initial Setup of a Device. How can i generate the QR Code? I found nothing in the documentation. For example for AirWatch it looks like this: { "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_COMPONENT_NAME": "com.airwatch.androidagent/com.airwatch.agent.DeviceAdministratorReceiver", "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_SIGNATURE_CHECKSUM": "6kyqxDOjgS30jvQuzh4uvHPk-0bmAD-1QU7vtW7i_o8=\n", "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_DEVICE_ADMIN_PACKAGE_DOWNLOAD_LOCATION": "https://awagent.com/mobileenrollment/airwatchagent.apk", "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_SKIP_ENCRYPTION": false, "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_ADMIN_EXTRAS_BUNDLE": { "serverurl": "Server URL", "gid": "Group ID", "un":"Username", "pw":"Password" } }Best regardsMarkus
Hi all. Having an issue when Mobicontrol first loads the lockdown screen on our devices (TC70 and MC9290). The screen flashes 3-4 times, kind of seems like its pushing down something in the background. Even if a user opens up an app as soon as Mobi loads up, while they are in the app, it pushes the users back to the lockdown screen. This causes a major issue when users are signing into web based apps as it makes them re-sign into whatever they were using everytime. Any thoughts? Thanks!
we are trying to switch over from the webroot browser to the SOTI Surf browser. It is installed on the tablet (Samsung Tab 2 4.1.2OS). I have created a separate profile adding the soti surf app in Mobi Control. When you try and access Surf it opens and immediately closes.
Hi all. We are running varios Android version on Zebra MC9290 and TC70. We keep getting a pop up on the bottom of the lockdown screen saying, "Server Policies restrict use of Wi-Fi profiles not meeting required security level." Also, this pop up shows about 3-4 times. If a user is in an app, it kicks them back to the lockdown screen evertime the pop up shows up. Any ideas on what could be causing this or how to fix this?
Hey Guy's, anyone an Idea how I can set the Device Proxy (Auto PAC URL) on an Android Work Device? Unfortunately the common script command "setwifiproxy" ist not working on the TC20 anymore.... Stage Now is not an Option, cause I'm using 802.11x with Certificates delivered by Soti Certificate Template and Soti itself has no Proxy-Config within the Wifi-Profile. Hope anyone can help me or facing the same issue... Thanks
Hi I've just updated our environment to the version 14.1.3.1587. This version has the Andoid Plus Agent 13.5.0 1327 included. A newer Android Agent is available on soti.net/oem. Is there a way to update the Agent to the newest Version in the Database? Best regards Markus
I need to start thinking about changing my MobiControl URL as I need it to reflect the domain name of our parent company since we were purchased. Is there a process for going about that considering I have 625 devices registered and communicating to the current system? The server itself will not be changing. I just need for the public facing URL to change from mobi.oldDomain.com to mobi.newDomain.com. Could it be as easy as adding a CNAME record for mobi.olddomain.com to resolve to mobi.newdomain.com and then change the deployment, web, etc... URLs in the system? All new devices would register to mobi.newdomain.com and the older devices would not know the difference? Obviously I need to figure out the least intrusive way to do this without bringing down all of our systems live in the field. Thanks!
Hi, can anyone explain me the "writeprivateprofstring" for Android Plus devices? I'm using MobiControl "14.1.3". I don't undestand the help: https://www.soti.net/mc/help/v14.1/en/scriptcmds/gsrindex.html?gsrid=reference/writeprivateprofstring.html How can I read the value from my device? Where can I find the pbd.ini on my Android device? What I have tried: "writeprivateprofstring isAllowed "Zebra Technologies" "MC18N0" "Yes" It looks like the command works but I don't know how to read the value
I want to implement Custom Data for profile deployment filtering on my Zebra TC51 devices running Andorid 6.0.1 Is there a easy way to change the value of a section inside a .ini file?
I have a 13.3 setup on a physical server, and I have recently setup a 14.1 on a VM that will be our new production server. I'm trying to figure out the best way to start to migrate these windows (all win ce) devices to the new SOTI server. Any one have any ideas or experience doing this? I've been searching around for some info but I actually do not see much online.
