    How use sendintent

    Hi, I'm trying to run an application using sendintent, but I can't figure out how to get this working. When I use adb, I can run the command: adb shell am broadcast -n "com.symbol.selfdiagnostics/com.symbol.selfdiagnostics.SESReceiver" How can I execute this via a script with sendintent? Cheers, Mark

    Android Enterprise list of Scripts

    Hi, Just asking and wondering if there was a documentation which list all script that we can use with AE devices (enrolled with MobiControl Stage Programmer). I will need to get all script especially the writesecuresetting script. It seems like everybody is sending writesecuresetting script but most of them are only working with Android+ devices... I'm surprised that SOTI didn't make this kind of document easily available. Their website is only showing the simple scripts that everybody knows from Android+ Many Thanks

    Tracking changes on a device after adding a printer with built in print functionality

    How do I track the changes to a device so I can deploy a script to install a printer, non-zebra?  I assume there may an app out there that can do this but I have been unsuccessful finding one.  Or just a script to install a printer using the built in printing in Android.

    Use script enable_system_app

    Hi, I tried to enroll Samsung devices by using afw#mobicontrol but it seems like this enrollment method is disabling most of Android & samsung apps like maps, calendar, gallery... I sent the adb command pm list packages to get all packages from the devices and I tried to add a script like: enable_system_app com.google.android.youtube enable_system_app com.sec.android.gallery3d etc. But unfortunately, this script (which get more than 100 lines) is not executed on preinstall or postintall application. Could someone tell me why? If I try to send this script by using "send script" command it's working. Thanks for your help.

    Disable Powerbutton instantly Locking Device via Script

    Hello, maybe you can help me out here even though i am almost sure its a limitation of mobicontrol / device at this point. i want to set the timeout before the display gets locked to 30 minutes and the powerbutton should only turn of the screen. on an android+ device i found the following with watchsettings so far: Lock Screen After Timeout: Custom log (URI:content://settings/secure SETTING:lock_screen_lock_after_timeout VALUE:1800000) For the powerbutton option i sadly got no result. Using the following script on an aedo device got me no result: writesecuresetting -sec lock_screen_lock_after_timeout 1800000 I then tried to find something with adblogs on the aedo device and found the following settings triggered: security.screenlock.ScreenLockSettings/lock_after_timeout|1800000 security.screenlock.ScreenLockSettings/power_button_instantly_locks|false i tried multiple combinations of the settings with writesecuresetting i.e.: writesecuresetting -sec lock_after_timeout 1800000writesecuresetting -sec power_button_instantly_locks false writesecuresetting -sec lock_screen_lock_after_timeout 1800000writesecuresetting -sec lock_screen_power_button_instantly_locks false None of them worked. Any Ideas would be appreciated.

    Manage group permissions with APIs

    Hi @Soti, I wanted to ask if it is possible to create and manage device group permissions with APIs. The background is that a customer has about 140 folders and he needs now certain permissions in each subfolder for a usergroup. Doing this manually about 140 times would be very time-consuming.  Like described here: http://www.soti.net/mc/help/v14.0/en/console/devices/managing/groups/groups.html?hl=permission If someone knows that this is possible could I have an example how to create a device group and give user group permissions for this device group?  Many thanks in advance. Best regards,  Sven

    Default launcher script

    Hi, Is there any way in SOTI that would set my own app as the default launcher on Android? Everytime an update on my app is performed, since the old one is deleted before the new one is installed, a prompt to choose the default launcher will pop-up and we would like that our launcher would be always the default launcher, no exeptions.

    Scripts on Android Enterprise

    I am having difficulty sending some scripts to my Android Enterprise device - Samsung A50, Android 9. Our platform is version 15.0.1.1181 and the agent version is 14.1.6.1018.     The scenario is:   Firstly I noticed that after sending the script unlock, the logs need to update to state “Custom log (New authentication password applied)” before sending the kill_application and/or start script. After I did this I noticed that my test device successfully completed the scripts correctly each time – however, I then started sending them to other devices and was finding they hadn’t worked. This then has led me to find another issue: I believe what is happening is – if the device is pressed or touched by the user once the script is sent – then the following scripts: kill_application com.commontime.infinity.jobmenuprod start com.commontime.infinity.jobmenuprod   will work correctly. However, if the user does not touch the device at all once the script is sent (I have found 30-60 seconds or more) then the final script is not correctly ran. The device appears to run the start script once the user opens or touches the device, but if this does not happen then the script is not ran at all – almost as though the device forgets that that start script needs to be ran. I have also tried sending it at three separate scripts – firstly sending the script unlock, and waiting for the logs to update to state “Custom log (New authentication password applied)”, next sending the kill_application script and waiting for this to appear in the logs, and then finally sending the third script – start. Again, if I press or enter the device manually as soon as the final script is sent, then the application does load once the screen is opened – yet, if I wait and enter or select the device after 30-60 seconds or more the application does not start – again as though the device has forgotten it needs to complete the third and final script. To confirm in all instance – the unlock and kill_application scripts are correctly working each time – it is just the start application that is causing an issue. Please could you provide any advice on how I can ensure the scripts each run - without user interference? Thank you
