    Soti Enrollment using Google Zero Touch

    Hi,  our customer situated in Germany needs to be enrolled on Soti Mobicontrol.  Normally this is no issue and easy done. This case is a bit peculiar,  We can't use any Wifi connection, only option is through the Sim card mobile data.  We are using a Orange simcard with a custom APN then the default.  I have tested the following inside my GZT config but nothing seems to be working.  When i try to enroll the devices i get the error "couldn't connect to the internet".  This is my GZT config i used in my testing:  {     "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_LOCALE": "de_DE",     "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_LEAVE_ALL_SYSTEM_APPS_ENABLED": true,     "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_SKIP_EDUCATION_SCREENS": true,     "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_SKIP_USER_CONSENT": true,     "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_USE_MOBILE_DATA": true,     "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_SKIP_WIFI_SETUP": true,     "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_TIME_ZONE": "Europe/Amsterdam",     "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_ADMIN_EXTRAS_BUNDLE": {         "enrollmentId": "******",         "PROVISIONING_MODE": "FULLY_MANAGED_DEVICE",         "apn": {             "name": "Transics",             "apn": "Transics2.be",             "mcc": "206",             "mnc": "10", "apn_type": "default,supl"         }     } } I've also tested the following:  { "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_LOCALE": "de_DE", "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_LEAVE_ALL_SYSTEM_APPS_ENABLED": true, "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_SKIP_EDUCATION_SCREENS": true, "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_SKIP_USER_CONSENT": true, "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_USE_MOBILE_DATA":true, "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_TIME_ZONE": "Europe/Amsterdam",  "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_CUSTOM_APN": "Transics2.be", "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_ADMIN_EXTRAS_BUNDLE": { "enrollmentId": "****",        "PROVISIONING_MODE": "FULLY_MANAGED_DEVICE"} }

    How an Android app can know if her device is enrolled on MobiControl ?

    Hello, Is there a way for an Android app to detect if the device she is installed on is enrolled in MobiControl ? An official Android API maybe, a MobiControl broadcast or something like that ?

    We are implementing shared device soon and my question is: are the packages getting installed and deleted every time we move between groups? Solved

    when we move a device from the home group to the working group (the apps we want them to see) are the packages (apps) then getting installed at that point for that user? and when we move it back to the home group, the packages get deleted? Is that how it works?This could cause a delay for the user as some of our packages take a few minutes to install so if it needs to re-install every time that could be a pain.

    Unenrolling MDUs without Access to the SOTI Server

    Hello everyone, We are currently in the process of transitioning from old to new MDUs, while simultaneously migrating the SOTI server. This process is being carried out in phases, with four out of twelve phases still to be completed. Unfortunately, the license for the old SOTI server has expired, which has resulted in a loss of access. The systems on the old MDUs are still operational. However, we are facing an issue where defective scanners that need to be replaced cannot be added to the old SOTI, as we no longer have access to the SOTI service. Extending the license is unfortunately not an option, as it is only available for a large number of devices and for an extended period, which would be unnecessary since we have capacity available on the new SOTI server. Therefore, it would be a waste of money. Our proposed solution is to temporarily integrate the old MDUs into the new SOTI server. However, this requires the devices to be unenrolled from the old SOTI before they can be re-enrolled in the new system. The unenrollment process can be done through various methods, but each method requires access to the old SOTI server, which is currently unavailable to us. Is there a way to unenroll or reset the old devices without needing access to the SOTI service? We do have access to the Windows server. The MDUs are in Kiosk mode, which prevents a factory reset. This means that the Kiosk mode profile would need to be revoked from the MDU first. Do you know of any way to accomplish this? Thank you in advance for your help! Best regards

    File IO error on device. Check Storage/Permissions.

    I have one device, that is enrolled with profile X. Profile X has just two configurations. First one is an "App Run Control" whitelist configuration with just one app whitelisted. And this is my app with com.my.app package. The second configuration is of course the app with com.my.app package itself. And my problem is that the app is not being installed and I get this issue on device: Package "com.my.app" version 1.0.0 failed to install. File IO error on device. Check Storage/Permissions. But when I remove the "App Run Control" configuration from the profile, the app is being installed without any problem. I verified the package names in profile configuration and everything is fine. It's even selected with SOTI MobiControl autocomplete. Option "Force Package Reinstallation" or revoking and reinstalling the profile doesn't work either. My device is Zebra TC78 with Android 11. The MobiControl agent is 2024.1.6 Build 1140. What am I doing wrong? Also, a similar thing is happening when I try to download "Android debug" logs. File with just this content is downloaded: PKError retrieving agent log. Server reported error: The operation has timed out. No matter if the "Android Run Control" is enabled or not.

    Script to install a profile that is showing "administratively removed" so i can quickly reinstall it on about 400 devices instead of doing this manually

    I sent a ps script to revoke restart and reinstall a profile but it got hung up half way through and now the profile is stuck on 'administratively removed' and i have to manually install it back. Is there a script that i can send to all of them for the profile in question to grab them all in one go?

    Accessing the Content Library in Lockdown Solved

    Hi,  Struggling to figure this out. I have added a file to a content library Created a policy exposing specific devices to it.  Installed Soti Hub to the device Added Soti Hub on the lockdown screen I can't seem to see where to add the content library to the hub, or it's certainly not obvious.  I see there's an option for adding a repo to the hub but there doesn't seem to be a 'native' content library option.
