    Lifeguard FOTA - Zebra TC57x

    Hi,I am trialing the Zebra TC57x device that we will most likely use to replace our aging tc56 fleet.I have 10 devices here which I have enrolled successfully however the issue I am having is FOTA. The devices sit as Enrollment Pending for hours after being enrolled. Checking in usually will result in a device becoming "Ready for firmware upgrade" however three out of the 10 are still pending enrollment. I am worried if I have over 500 of these devices to get updated before I deploy I am going to be stuck for weeks fighting FOTA to work as intended.What are some troubleshooting steps I can use to force a device to move itself from Enrollment Pending to Ready For Firmware Upgrade? So far I have Checked In / Sync Files / Restarted Devices.

    Permissions Popup

    We are getting a popup on our scanners that reads "attention required please tap each item and proceed with the pending actions".  When this happens, the scanners stop connecting to MobiControl.   When we enter the admin credentials, we are prompted to grant SOTI permissions.  This happened all of a sudden on scanners we've been using for years.  Any idea what the root cause could be?

    ENROLLMENT with Google-managed DOMAIN (enterprise binding) without Google account on phone.

    Hello, I'm looking for help because I can't skip the Google account request when I enroll my device through the enrollment rule (Google-managed domain enterprise binding). It's necessary for my activity that I can initially enroll the device via this rule in SOTI MobiControl without adding a Google account (so my preparation technicians can push the necessary profiles afterwards). The Google account will be added to the device at a later stage.Thanks for helpingSincerelyAntoine

    I have implemented this KSP setting so users will not be able to access settings for any biometric setup for our 3rd party app. However now when into admin mode the Settings app is now blocked there too. How can I enable the settings app while in admin mode but leave this setting in place for lockdown kiosk so users cannot get to settings:  The KSP setting applied:  what it does, and we need to keep: what it also does in admin mode when i click on the settings icon that i need to get rid of:

    Identify and Blacklist certain android settings

    Hello, I'm trying to add an bluetooth shortcut to our lockscreen. The user should be able to add a new connection but not go any further settings wise. We are using Honeywell CT45P devices which are AE deployed, the lockscreentype is Activity Suppression. I managed to open the 'connected devices' screen (Screenshot 1) and the 'identify_activity' script will return 'com.android.settings/.Settings$ConnectedDeviceDashboardActivity'. But in this screen the user gets the option 'Connection preferences' (Screenshot 2) where several settings / menus can be accessed which is not what we want.If I try the 'identify_activity' script in the 'Connection preference' section the response is 'com.android.settings/.SubSettings' which is not helpful. Is there a way to determine and block this settings seciton? A call for the third screen ('pair new device') could also help but the response for identify_activity is also 'com.android.settings/.SubSettings'. Thanks in advance for your help.

    RC Error

    Hi, I have a few devices (Datalogic Skorpio X5 with Agent Version 15.1.5.1049), and sometimes these devices don't have the buttons to Remote Control and has the RC Error in Supported APIs. To fix this I can send one script with "retryrcdetection" and it works. However, after some time, the RC Error appears again. I create a profile with one Task Scheduler to execute this script everytime one device has RC Error in Supported API (filter by Supported API in assignment), and it seems to work ok. I am interested in knowing if there is a definitive solution to solve RC error. Regards

    Apple BYOD Application Catalog Solved

    Hopefully someone can help me here. I have created and deployed an Apple device as "user" enrollment which works fine (i can add and enroll profiles which take effect on the device like Wifi for example). My problem now is, I also assigned an app policy where 2 apps are assigned to (previously also "purchased" in the ABM (Mobicontrol Agent and Office 365 for testing)). I can see both apps in the provided webclip for Application catalog (https://serveraddress/mc/mdm/appcatalog/%DeviceIdentifier%) but if i press on "install", for both i get the error message "App can't be installed. Please contact your Administrator."  In the webclip for the profile catalog (https://serveraddress/mc/mdm/profile/%DeviceIdentifier%) i get only a blank page. APNS is set up and a test went fine. Did I miss something or is there something related i could have done wrong somewhere?

    (Android Enterprise Agent) SOTI MOBICONTROL MXMF is loading, Please wait......... (this took a long time to load)

    Hi There,  I receive complaints from branches that it takes a long time before a scanner (zebra) is started. We increasingly see SOTI Mobicontrol MXMF is loading, please wait... normally it is loaded like this, but now it sometimes takes a very long time. We allow the agent to update automatically and we are now at version 2024.0.4.1056. Could it be because of that? Device runs on firmware 11-39-27.00-RG-U00-STD-HEL-04 Are there any known issues?  Devices identified with the problem are Zebra, VC8300, MC93, TC57 Which i also find strange, at the beginning of the week I saw the releases of SOTI agent version: 2024.0.4.1056, but now it is no longer there. We let the zebra devices automatically install the agent. And we are now at 2024.0.4.1056. Have any bugs been discovered and has the release been pulled back? thanks for the help. Regards,Marcel
