Hello,
We would like to set the device inactivity time via mobicontrol, but it only allows us if we wipe data or if we play a media. We only want to set a delay and the device locks like usual. Is there a way to do so ?
You are looking for just talking about the screen timeout (the time it takes before the screen gets locked).
This is a default Android available setting but not able to be set by Soti (yet) via profile. But you can acchive this using maybe an oem config app from the relevant device manufacturer if they provide this setting there.
It worked with samsung OEM settings. Thank you for your quick answer

Thibaut,
Please note that if you are interested in configuring screen-timeout in device's Settings rather than the more generic "device inactivity timer" mentioned in the thread title, then a simpler approach is to use legacy MobiControl script
writesecuresetting -sys screen_off_timeout 600000
where the last argument (600000 above) is the number of milli-seconds for the time-out.
This has been mentoned in many previous discussion threads and also in a Soti forum article at https://discussions.soti.net/articles/000002394.
This approach should be applicable to many Android device brands and models, and is not restricted to devices that have related configuration option(s) in their corresponding OEMConfig app plug-in.
