    Change Font Size in Lockdown Mode Solved

    We have all of our devices in lockdown mode, however, many users are requesting to change their font size. The Samsung Knox kiosk mode has this in their settings menu, however, SOTI's Settings Manager does not. I know we can use legacy scripts to change this remotely but I'd prefer the user to be able to do it on their own. The default font size is fine for most, but specific users that can't see well need the font increased. Our devices are Android 13, Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 3.

    Calculator App after Upgrade

    Recently, we have started to upgrade our TC57s from Android 8.1 to Android 11. The one problem that we have noticed is that the Calculator app package name is changing. The main issue with this is that it is not consistent among the devices we have upgraded and it ends up being one of the two names below. com.google.android.calculatorcom.android.calculator2 The kiosk profile is setup using com.google.android.calculator so any phone using the other one is not finding the app on the kiosk screen and is giving the error "package not found." The app in the Google Play Store only shows installed if the first package name is used, and when I try installing it when it is named the other way, I get an error. What is the best way to resolve this issue? We have considered using another app from the Google Play Store entirely to avoid this issue, but I don't like the idea of using some random app that could be taken off the store at any moment and cause mass issues.

    Is it possible to get read only access to the MobiControl database? Solved

    It would be ideal to run queries against multiple devices to review certain device details in one window. FYI, this is a cloud instance.

    I have some profiles that are stuck in a Pending Install status no matter what I do.

    Hello, We are currently on Mobi version 15.4.2.1020. We use Android tablets and utilize package studio to deploy some APK's that we cannot distribute via the Google Play store. We deploy the same profile to 3,000+ devices. All devices are either a Tab Active2 or Tab Active3. Roughly 60% of the tablets we deploy to will take the update almost immediately and install properly. The other 40% are stuck in a "Pending Install" state. A lot of these are like that because we have been updating via assigning a new profile with the updated apk, then removing the old profile that housed the previous version. Sometimes, when the older profile removes itself from the tablet, it leaves behind the older app version. We used to be able to just manually remove the old apk from the tablet and repush the new profile installation. For whatever reason, now when we perform the above steps, the new profile will not install and stays in a Pending status. I have tried:Unassigning the new profile completely, check - in right after, and then reassigning the new profile to the tablet. I will wait 10 minutes or so and then perform another check in. It just won't download no matter what I try. Our DS queue is sitting at 0 so it's not bogged down. Does anyone have any ideas of where I could look? Any idea why the same tablet models accepting the exact same profile would only be successful on 60% of our tablets?

    You have selected a file with incorrect format. Please select another .apk file. Solved

    Hi, MobiControl issue since upgrading: I have downloaded Device Manager 4.0, I have tried to manually add the apk to a new app policy (selecting enterprise not google play as the app source) -  I receive the error: You have selected a file with incorrect format. Please select another .apk file. This issue has only started to occur since upgrading to Mobi ControlVersion: 15.6.5.1018 Im sure the apk is sound, I have the same issue when trying to upload Zebra apk's - has anyone else had this issue or do they have any work arounds.
