    Add Device Name to Lockdown Screen Solved

     Hi all, I have recently started to design a lockdown template for our devices. A really important element that we ideally want to implement is to display the SOTI set 'Device Name' on the lockdown screen. So if the device changes hands we can rename the device, and the display name would change dynamically. Does anyone know if this is possible? Any help is greatly appreciated, Seb

    Has anyone found a way to stop Apple iPad WiFi from turning off when screen locks?

    The reason is I have many iPads out in the field with a password policy for 90 days and what happens is the users forget to change it and the account becomes unable to login. Well guess what because the WiFi is not connected any longer I can/t simple go in and clear the password for the user to create a new one because it inst online any longer.

    Documentation?

    The support page mentions the availability of "Knowledge Base Articles Access" with a description of "SOTI knowledge base articles to find answers to your SOTI MobiControl implementation. Get helpful advice in an easy to understand format written by our support engineers."Great! Where do I find it?? I'm looking for information on disaster recovery configurations.  The deployment server config contains things like: "Secondary Agent Address and Port".  Seems like a recovery/failover mechanism of some kind.  Finding any detailed information about it though seems to be impossible.  The online (un)help contains the useful: "Displays the secondary address for device connectivity in IP or FQDN format as well as its associated port."How about a description of WHEN or HOW it would/should be used! Are there any "best practices" documents that explain how to prevent devices from becoming orphans if our data center blows up and we need to bring up the infrastructure in a different location?

    Automate setting MobiControl UsageTracking Setting in Android Settings?

    I recently setup a telecom expense management rule to monitor data usage across our Samsung Tab E Android devices.  I pushed out the rule to a group of the devices I want to monitor but found a user must activate the setting manually on the tablet.  I pushed this out to a couple hundred devices in vehicles where we do not want the user to have to do this manually.  Is there anyway I can programmatically make these changes?
