Hi! I know it has been discussed before but with how fast they add features in android, I was wondering if there is already the possibility of changing this name through a script or something similar

Hi!

I think you mean the post https://discussions.soti.net/discussions/android-personalized-name

It was of 2020 and i have the same issue with samsung devices. In that post are talking about:

"Google seems to be constantly adding more standard EMM API's for Android-Enterprise recently.  I hope there will be such function supported soon, though that may likely be available only for device models with the latest (Android 10 or even 11+) firmware."

i was wondering if progress had been made or we still couldn't change the personalized names.

TY!

Regarding your general question:

The OEM app for Zebra devices is able to set this, maybe you have to check the Samsung OEM app and if this is missing send them a feature request.

As fa as I know, there is currently no script to support changing personalized device name for Samsung devices with third-party MDM solution, or with the free Samsung OEMConfig compliant app "Samsung Knox Service Plug-in".  However, the non-free Samsung Knox Configure solution does support such configuration.
