Hi communitiy Is there any script command (Android 7, AE) to force package reinstallation ? I know this can be done via the device configuration menu but I need to do this to all devices connected in 1 command. thx steve
Here are the details: Devices are WINMATE M700DM8 Tablets running Android 7.0 Devices are enrolled in Enterprise with Managed Google Play account. They are running a lockdown There is a profile that contains a setting for “Managed Google Play” with “Application Updates” set to “Always Update”. An Android+ Application Catalog contains the application I am interested in. advanced setting for “Application Type” is set to “Mandatory”. What is happening: From a fresh setup, the application from the catalog does install automatically due to the “Mandatory” flag in the catalog. The app version updated in the Google Play Store but the application is not updating automatically on the tablets. Which should have been fixed by the setting for the Application Update. We have managed to have 1 tablet update automatically in about 24h… this tablet was on the WIFI (which should not change anything because we selected the setting to “always update”) AND the App has been forced to shut down and was not running. (this would not be a suitable prerequisite) SO: I have found these google restrictions: https://support.google.com/googleplay/work/answer/9350374?hl=en but not exactly sure how to work around/with that. The devices are always in kiosk mode and users do not have access to the catalog: is there is a way to let the user update through the catalog within the lockdown? Controlling if the app is running or not is pretty hard and the app will most likely always be running. How should we proceed to force the update? Is there a script command we can send to force the installation of the app from the catalog? I have tried : install %temp%[app.apk]install %tmp%[app.apk]install /sdcard/[app.apk] Thank you for the help!
