    How can I retry the installation of a System Update Policy without revoking the entire profile?

    Good Afternoon.  We have a system update policy in place on our Samsung devices. I have gone into the profile and extended the policy another 90 days. However, 76 devices are showing "Install failed" Is there a way to retry this without revoking the entire profile? We use only 1 profile that includes a simple kiosk screen and our configurations.

    Honeywell Service agreement

    Hi, Can someone please explain the Honeywell contract model to me?We have a number of Honeywell CT60 and CT60XP devices.The CT60s are almost all still on Android 9 and I would like to update them to Android 11/12. The download page says that you need a contract to get the download. However, if I click on the Android 11 folder, for example, I can access the download without entering the contract. https://imgur.com/a/SbfDBxO At the same time, the Honeywell site ( https://sps.honeywell.com/us/en/support/blog/productivity/why-you-should-keep-ruggedized-android-devices-os-updated) says that updates are free. Here (https://support.honeywellaidc.com/s/article/How-to-access-Android-10-kernel-files-on-the), on the other hand, it says that you need a contract. Our units do not have this contract and are already 2-3 years old. Can I update them or not?Our dealer said that you have to sign an extra contract for just the Android software. But in the end, none of his customers are doing this because Honeywell can't control it. How are you dealing with this?Our central IT seems to want to buy 200 additional licences to be able to officially download the software. Cheers Maik

    Lockdown blocked on Android OS 12

    Running Samsung tablet with Android 12 and the kiosk lockdown is not getting installed from the Profile in the Configurations.  All permissions for SOTI are set to Allow on the tablet.  All other items in the Profile (wifi, wallpapers, authentication, etc) are installed and working correctly. What else needs to be set?  Is this OS blocking the LockDown?

    Macro for the Device Name set in Soti Mobicontrol? Solved

    Greetings everyone, I am currently working on a Lockdown template and trying to get the name of my devices there. If I use the macro %PERSONALIZED_DEVICE_NAME% it will only output "TC25" in our case (Zebra TC25 devices). I've seen that it would be possible to send a script to each phone to change the Personalized Device name, but since we rename our devices quite a few times, I don't want to as much automated as possible. If there is no macro for this, what would be the best approach to show a personalized String on each device? Thanks

    Disable Notification Sound

    Hi Guys, do you know if there is any possibility to disable the notification sound of Android 13 devices with a script or a specific setting? In my case this question belongs to samsung devices. I tried something like this: writesecuresetting -sys notification_sound 0 This script doesn't had an effect on the devices. On the device itself is the settings manager where every user can configure their settings by theirself. But we need to disbale the notification sound by default. I am thankful for every advice. Thanks!

    Andriod/Lockdown/sdcard Question: Any way to Script USB Access to only transfering Pictures?

    We have Android tablets in lockdown (Soti Surf, Gallery, Camera, and Soti Settings are the only apps used) and have allowed USB access to the sdcard to pull pictures or videos by turning on USB sharing and USB Debugging allowed.  We just want to keep the setting of transfering photos only (gives access to DCIM and Pictures folder).  Every time the device is rebooted it switches back to the default of showing all the folders in the sdcard (when you plug it into a pc to pull data). Thanks

    mcsetup.ini to envoke enrollment URL

    Hi all,At the moment I am working on our Honeywell CK65's where I am trying to use the mcsetup.ini file to envoke the enrollment URL after provisioning it with Honeywell Provisioner. Is there a way to get this working so that the device can be setup in a one step process ? We have transfered mcsetup.ini  /sd/download using honeywell provisioner can we specify the enrollment in honeywell or in the mcsetup.ini we cannot use enrollment ID as our enviorment is fully isolated from the internet.Thanks in advance.

    Download a data file (.csv) using javascript Solved

    Hi all, we have the problem, that we need to change an ini file and put in an number that is related to the device name. We use Zebra TC21 and MC33xx with Android 10 an 11. For the translation from device name into the number we would download an csv file with both values and read the values. Most of the script works, at the moment we are stuck in downloading a file. On the web are a lot of descriptions, but i did not find one that works. Is someone out there who has an idea to that? Best regardsJürgen

    Screen Lockout Time on a Honeywell CK65 Solved

    Hi, We have a large quantity of Honeywell CK65's right now running on Android Enterprise OS version 11. I am currently trying to figure out how to set the screen timeout from 1 minute to 3 minutes without having to manually go into each device putting it into admin mode and going into the device settings to change it in the display settings. Is there a way to get this done all on Soti Mobicontrol efficiently. Previous attempts have been: 1.Entering the script Writesecuresetting –sys screen_off_timeout 180000 in a file sync rule. 2.Entering the script Writesecuresetting –sys screen_off_timeout 180000 in a legacy script on the device itself Much appreciated for any help -Gabriel
