    How to set the Aladdin keyboard as default keyboard via script

    In mobicontrol I am pushing 2 apps to our CT45 scanner. One is our picking app and the other is our Aladdin app for our CodiScanners from Datalogic. The Codiscanner is linked to our CT45 scanner via the Aladdin app. The Aladdin app adds the aladdin keyboard which you need enable before it is recognized and is used in our picking app. I am trying to enable and set this aladdin keyboard after post-install as default keyboard via a script with the command:  afw_set_preferred_keyboard com.datalogic.aladdinapp/.views.keyboardview.AladdinSoftKeyboard But this seems not to work. If I try to manually send a script to the device then I only have as script types: Legacy, javascript, powershell 32-bit compatibility, powershell native. Is this normal? I select javascript then I get the below error: 01:40:08 PM Error Custom log (missing ; before statement (UserScript#2)) MDV-VWA22071B34A2 A007703   01:39:52 PM Information Script was sent to device ( afw_set_preferred_keyboard com.datalogic.aladdinapp/.views.keyboardview.AladdinSoftKeyboard) If I send it as Legacy script then the command is sent but nothing happens and there is no error in the log. I see somewhere in a documentation that it mentions as script type: Android for Work but I do not have this choice. Am I doing something wrong or am I missing something. Can you help me out?

    Schedule Profile Deployment to Devices Between 23:30 and 06:00 (Spanish time) Solved Locked

    Hi everyone, We need to schedule the deployment of a specific profile to different sets of devices on separate days. The deployment should always take place between 23:30 and 06:00 (Spanish time) to minimize operational impact. We have already tested the "Custom Deployment Schedule" option, but it does not work as expected.Our console version is 2025.0.3.1026. Example schedule: Day 1: Deploy to devices A and B between 23:30 and 06:00 (Spanish time). Day 2: Deploy to devices C and D between 23:30 and 06:00 (Spanish time). Day 3: Deploy to devices E and F between 23:30 and 06:00 (Spanish time). Please confirm if this deployment schedule can be configured accordingly or if any additional information is required. Thanks in advance!

    Deploy profiles and applications based on user and path in SOTI MobiControl Solved

    Hi everyone, We need to deploy profiles and applications to devices based on both the user and the path, for example: (User A and Path A) or (User B and Path B) We can’t achieve this using the Devices or Users tabs, since the conditions are added together rather than combined as “user AND path.” The only possible approach we’ve found so far is using filters.We can get the user from the Device Name (as we rename each device with the user’s name), but we can’t find a way to retrieve the Path. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?One possible solution could be using Custom Data, but in that case, we’d need something on the device that automatically writes its Path. Thanks in advance!

    Local Script Execution at Device Startup

    Hi, Is there a way to run a script locally on the device at boot or startup? More specifically, I would like to run a script that toggles Data Roaming on (if it is not already enabled) every time the device starts up. This serves as a safeguard to ensure that Data Roaming is always enabled, as our app requires it to maintain an internet connection. The script should run locally on the device without needing an internet connection, similar to the boot-up procedure that allows our kiosk app to start automatically on device reboot.  We are using Samsung Android devices with OS versions 13, 14, and 15. Thanks for your help in advance, Stefan

    Android company app does not play its own sounds.

    We use Honeywell CT47 scanners with our company app installed on them. When they scan something that is on a list, a sound should be played (something like “good read”). If something is not on the list, then a different sound should be played (bad read). All sounds are at full volume. We have kiosk mode enabled and the settings are rolled out via UEM Connect. Notifications are enabled in kiosk mode. Where can I adjust the settings so that the app sounds are played? Currently, only the scanner sound is played. It works on a normal cell phone.
