    Enabling StageNow on a Zebra with Android 11 Solved

    Hi, I have Zebra TC52AX devices with Android 11 enrolled into MobiControl. I understand that Mobi hides the StageNow app. I've tried sending the script of "enable_system_app com.zebra.devicemanager" via Legacy and it successfully sends to the device but no StageNow icon is anywhere to be found. Would I perhaps need to add it to the Apps policy too, as well as running the above command via script.

    Disabling Fixed Dialling Numbers settings within Contacts

    Hi, Not sure whether it is possible, but I would like to disable above functionality on our devices, because our telephone provider is not able to supply us anymore with pre-programmed sim cards and we need to change one of the numbers. Is there any way to disable 'Disable FDN' feature using any script? I am aware it can be done manually, but having 600+ devices across UK constantly used by our drivers it is difficult. I will appreciate any ideas We are using Moto G6, Moto G8, Sam A02 and Sam A12 (Android 8,9,10,11,12) within our estate enrolled as Android Enterprise. Our Mobi Control version is 15.4 Regards. Norbert

    Adding a link for Downloads folder to Lockdown Desktop Solved

    Device: Samsung Galaxy Tab A8Mobicontrol Agent Version: 15.3.0.1006OS: Android 11 Following on from this thread: https://discussions.soti.net/discussions/how-do-i-add-a-folder-shortcut-to-an-android-lockdown We are in a situation where we would like the Downloads folder only to be accessible via a lockdown package. We cannot use Soti HUB as we are not implementing WebDAV, Sharepoint or similar; this is just a local downloads browser-type instance.

    Script for routinely clearing downloads folder in Lockdown mode? Solved

    Device: Samsung Galaxy Tab A8Mobicontrol Agent Version: 15.3.0.1006OS: Android 11 Hi, Some users of our tablets in lockdown mode are granted access to admin mode and can download items that they wouldn't be able to in lockdown mode (namely PDF files). In admin mode, tapping these in the browser automatically downloads them to the download folder. Is there a script or console function whereby we can enforce a daily/weekly/monthly purge of the downloads folder and delete anything in there?  In Mobicontrol at least, I can't see anything obvious. Many thanks in advance!

    When push apk...update or uninstall/install? Solved

    Hi. android tc52x  mobicontrol 15.6 I use mc pkg studio to push new apk updates for our app.I use js for my prei (and other) scripts. A practical example would best describe my question. App (apk) current version on scanner: v2.0 New app (apk) version to be pushed: v3.0 Sometimes it will uninstall v2.0 then install v3.0 Other times it will update v2.0 to v3.0. Updates seem to really crash it so then I have to manually uninstall then Force Package Reinstallation from Soti. 1. What determines whether it does an uninstall or update?2. What js command can I use to force our application to uninstall first (in the prei cmd script)? thanks!

    Azure server not accessible

    Hi,  I wonder if anyone is experiencing the same issue as me.  We as a business manage multiple MobiControl instances for our customers ( AWS, AZURE ) We have one particular Azure server that cannot be accessed at least once a week and an error is displayed on the login page. This is slowing devices down as they are trying to reach DS which is down.  We have changed the intervals on Retry Connection to 5 minutes but no improvement.  SOTI Support has been contacted but the ticket is open for 2 months and this is still happening.  Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Xtreme Hub - Synchronizing not working

    MC 15.5 Hi, we currently have a test installation for Xtreme Hub running since several weeks.It seems the hub is only synchronizing those files which are used on the currently connected scanners. If you connect a scanner with a new app to be used or a new file sync rule, then the hub tries to sync that at that time. Out of a sudden this is not working anymore. I have already checked the access rights, the firewalls, the logs - but nothing wired so far - any idea? Maybe I have missed something to set !?  Regards,Frank

    Zebra OTA account details or reset the registrations Solved

    Hi, In the SOTI MobiControl the Zebra LifeGuard OTA says that it's registered but when we try to sync we get an error.  Now I'm trying to see what the issue could be and for that I was looking to reset the registration but I have no clue where to change or see the Zebra LifeGuard OTA Account that was used previously. Error message in the logs: Failed to sync Zebra LifeGuard OTA enrollment status So it doesn't tell me more than this...

    Screen lock pin device

    Good afternoon everyone. I hope someone can help me: Can a PIN or password configuration be applied by policy when a device is enrolled from the beginning and if it is not configured by the user, the device cannot be used? I mean that it is completely blocked until said configuration policy is fulfilled. I remain of your comments. Greetings.

    Enable Don't keep Activites " ~ Destroy every activity as soon as the user leaves it.

    Hello SOTI Community, Here is what I'm trying to enable across all my TC57X Zebra android 10 handheld devices. I need to enable to this setting in mobicontrol . However I don't know to add this setting. Would this be enabled under work profiles? ETC? - I would like to assign this setting to all of our devices once added into mobicontrol for maybe 1 or 2 devices for testing. - Maybe I'll have remote into all the devices individually to enable this setting but that would be time consuming. Hope maybe the community has some suggestions. Settings>about phone > build number tap 6-7 times to enable developer mode> go back to settings home page > press system> press advanced> press Developer options> go to apps sections > Enable “Don’t keep Activities “~ Destroy every activity as soon as the user leaves it. Thanks.

    Automatic restart after a new certificate has been applied

    Good afternoon, I need to apply a new certificate authority with its new template to my devices. I already did it and it is working: The old template is "Bata OnRetail Prod CA", the new one is "Bata onRetail". The new template will generate a new certificate which will replace the old one. The problem is that the application which will have to use the new certificate needs to be restarted in order to for the user to be able to select it. Is there any way to authomatize the application restart as soon as the new certificate has been applied?It would be ok to just kill and restart the app or to restart the whole device, both ways are ok. I know there are some scripts which do this, but I don't know how to tell MobiControl to execute them only after the new certificate is applied. The instance version is: 15.4.1.4828 All devices are Honeywell EDA51 devices, Managed Work devices, with agent version 15.3.0.1006. Can you help me? Thank you, best regards.
