Dear community can you help me ? I try to add the terminal devicename using the Android LockDown template. Ideally the devicename should be positioned near the ip address
Hi community I would like to add a button on the lockdown to execute a script. In the past I have used the lockdown command script://sdcard/script.cmd. It was working good. Today, script:// command is not anymore listed in the option of the lockdown. What is the current option ? custom:// ? The script must wipe the chrome cache. So I've used wipeapplication com.android.chrome. When I manually execute the script it works BUT the entire lock down seems restaring, is it normal ?
How can a user access the Second Screen setting in the drop down from a Samsung Tablet while in Lockdown mode? There is no setting for this in the Settings Manager?
I have an app which is being used on a number of devices which are in Lockdown via Soti Mobicontrol. I've noticed that when left unattended for some time (probably 20 minutes or so), my app that was previously in the foreground will be shut down and the Lockdown screen will be brought to the foreground. This wouldn't be that much of an issue if I wasn't relying on my app running also when noone is using the handheld, as the app will perform routine background tasks at certain time of the day. Is there a way to ensure that if my app is active, that the Lockdown screen won't take over?
Hi Everyone, I hope you all had a great start into the week. I am searching for a solution to display a QR or other type of barcode in the starting page of a lockdown. We want to use a barcode instead of the device name to identify the devices. At the moment there are stickers on the outside of the device but in an industriell environment the devices often loose the stickers. Any idea how to do this? Thank you very much.
Hi all,Has anyone managed to get badge notifications to work on their Lockdown screens? Is this feature supported?
Hello i am trying to utilize speed control on a tablet, the lockdown mode is working correctly but i want the speed control to active and allow 3 apps to run while it is active. main one is google maps but the two others need to be active in the background or able to be switched to. when the speed control activates it only shows google maps, there is no option for me to move to the other apps. does anyone know if i need to add these 2 extra apps to the template in order for them to work during speed control. below is the configuration of the speed control and im using the default dynamic template Thanks Noah

Hey Everyone, at the moment I am testing with an Zebra Android 14 device to find a solution for my "admin logout" button. It is displayed in my lockdown to leave it with the admin password. Since I updated the device to Android 14 the intent which is behind this button isn't working anymore. I use this intent: #Intent;action=net.soti.mobicontrol.admin.PASSWORD_DIALOG;i.dialog_type=1;endDoes anyone know which one I have to use with Android 14 or have another workaround? At the moment I put a .cmd file on the device which gets executed when I press to button. In it is the script: "_adminmode on". Unfortunately I don't have to enter the admin passoword anymore which doesn't fit the use case. Thank you for your help!
Hello everyone, Hope you're having a good day. I'm trying to combine most of our tenant's lockdown templates into a single dynamic one we can use for both horizontal and vertical Android terminals. Of course, I started testing the SOTI dynamic template. However, I ran into some issues. Nearly all our tenants want as much space for apps as possible, so just a background and some device information at the bottom of the screen. I'm not good at all with HTML and the whole template doesn't fit into ChatGPT, so I messed around, but never ended up at the result I want. Currently, I've deleted the header and footer blocks at the top of the template, and adjusted height and padding values until I ended up at something slightly acceptable. Not even close to production-ready though. Especially because its still broken in landscape orientation(see below). I would really appreciate some insight into if this is the right way to accomplish my goal, or if there's a better way to get a clean dynamic template. Thanks in advance, KarelCaptureTech B.V.
Hi, Did anyone manage to create a lockdown for Getac tablets to include the widget from Getac Settings to change the mode of the touch panel?
Hi, We have received new batch of devices (Honeywell CT45XP), which should be installed for our field service management system in order to replace some old devices. Installation is very smooth with QR. The profile is configured with lockdown with few apps only allowed. The problem is that all apps are killed after returning to lockdown screen. And because of this behavior, our main app returns to login screen which leads to loss of previously entered data. Both Lockdown modes are tested, and even in Admin mode, no app is found in Recent apps. Apps are killed immediately after being sent to background. Any suggestions?

Dears,I'm facing an issue on new devices running Android 14, Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 4 Pro.Agent Version: 2024.0.5.1062MobiControl Version: 2024.0.1.1020I have a profile applied, with Lockdown and Camera and Gallery added to the Lockdown screen. Both apps has been enabled with script enable_system_app com.sec.android.app.camera/com.sec.android.gallery3d. However, when trying to open a camera, I got a pop up that "Security policy preventing use of Camera". Camera is enabled in feature control. I do have the same device running Android 13, enrolled with the same profile, where this issue is not present.Does someone faced similar issue, and have a solution?Best regards,Wiktor Mlynski
