    Script to give MobiControl access to all files

    We have a number of Android Enterprise devices where the user did not give MobiControl access to all files during enrollment. This causes problems during upgrade/deinstallation of our software to the devices. Is it possible to give the permission using a script?

    Invalid Credentials MobiControl Solved

    We continue to see an error message of "Invalid Credentials" when trying to log in to our MobiControl server. When the user clicks on the Log In button a second time, access is invariably granted. The error logs show:   Our on-prem server is not linked to the SOTI Cloud. I have checked our LDAP server connections which verify the user credentials and nothing seems to be amiss.  Anyone have similar issues or ideas as to what is causing these errors?

    Android 12 for Honeywell CT60 available but... Solved

    Hello all, I was looking to enroll a test device (CT60) in SOTI with A12 but it looks like with this final step from the Honeywell Device Provisioning:  Set device owner : net.soti.mobicontrol.androidwork/net.soti.mobicontrol.admin.DeviceAdminAdapter I get an error message: "Can't set up device" and that's it... It's a new thing for sure, everything is okay with A10. I will appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

    iOS Home Screen Layout is missing in configuration settings Solved

    I hope s.o. can help me in this case. We have Soti Mobicontrol as cloud service and want to provide iOS tablets in kiosk mode with only a few apps which are available for the user. Therefore we want to create a custom home screen layout with only the necessary apps. In the documentation from soti https://soti.net/mc/help/v15.6/en/console/configurations/profiles/configurations/categories/other/ios_home_screen_config.html we found the solution.  Our problem is that the necesarry option is not displayed. Here is a picture from "other" in our Soti console. The important option Home Screen Layout is missing in our system. Please give me a hint how we could enable this option.

    Google Play Managed Apps

    When enrolling a device for the first time, I’m expecting Google Play Managed apps to be pushed to the device immediately. I have 4 apps set to high priority, and also have them set in the profile to the assigned devices. Lastly, they are set to mandatory. As an example, I have had a device enrolled for 2 hours and the apps haven’t pushed yet. I have seen some posts on here saying it’s really up to Google. I don’t believe so and here’s why. I am currently using Samsung Knox Manage as MDM for over 150 devices. I’ve used Knox manage for almost a year. When I enroll a device, the apps have always pushed immediately - within minutes, a few times I’ve seen it take up to 30 minutes but that’s even rare. I also trialed Hexnode and guess what, apps pushed immediately. Based on this, I’d say it’s a Soti issue. Overall I like Soti way better than Knox Manage, and has way more features than Hexnode. So what can we do to make these apps install faster?

    Distribution of Zebra Lifeguard updates based on installed version Solved

    Hi, I've been asked to make sure that our Zebra devices always have the highest LifeGuard security updates installed.Unfortunately, some of our devices are seasonally used devices. Some are also in continuous use.Now Zebra has full updates and then delta updates.I would like to have the updates done with a FileSync at the weekend, maybe with the help of the task scheduler. How do you distribute the updates? I would need the following functionality somehow:If "OEM Version" < Full Update then install Full Updateif "OEM Version" < Delta 1 Update then Install Delta 1".if "OEm Version" < Delta 2 Update then Install Delta 2".and so on.Unfortunately, we will have very different versions as the systems gradually report in. But something like "if" does not seem to work with the legacy Scripting. With JavaScript I currently dont see the option to get the information from "OEM Version" How could I best solve this? I would then build in another IF query for each upcoming version until a new full update comes along at some point.

    Schedule Lockdown Screen

    I was wondering if there is any way to schedule a lockdown with just a message that the device is offline due to application maintenance.  We have a monthly maintenance window where users should not be using the handheld device for a window in time and would like to have some way to lock the user from using it. Thanks

    Setting static IPs from SOTI settings app on Android

    We send android mobile devices out to users for deployment in their facilities.  The devices are locked down to limit the user to only selected applications including the SOTI Settings app for managing their connections to WiFi. We have a user site that requires the device to use a static IP address and do not do assignment of static IPs by MAC address from their DHCP server, but have the network IP config set manually for any devices that connect to their network. I am not able to find any way in the SOTI settings app to allow the user to manually set network info like IP address, is there a path for this that I am missing?
