Android Enterprise Profile Owner enrollment failing with Google Workspace authentication

Hey everyone, I’m posting this on behalf of our admin team because we’ve hit a blocker while enrolling Samsung devices as Profile Owner using Android Enterprise.

Is it possible to disable hardware buttons and status bar in android kiosk mode?

Hey everyone! I want to disable the hardware buttons on an Android tablet (power and volume) and hide the notification bar so I can run a custom app in kiosk mode. The app should auto-launch on reboot, and users shouldn’t be able to swipe past the lock screen. Is this possible?

Auto-enable for Android Enterprise enrollment

Hey peeps, is it possible to grant the permissions automatically for the Hexnode UEM app during Android enterprise enrollment. There are a bunch of app permissions such as Usage access and Password token and granting permissions for each one of them seems like a hassle. So any ideas on this matter?

When the Android Enterprise owner account disappears.......what really happens? Solved

We’ve been hit by a strange and stressful situation. Our Android Enterprise organization was originally set up using a Gmail account, and that account was suddenly deleted by Google. It’s not recoverable anymore. The devices are still in use, but now we’re unsure how this affects management going forward. Is there any way to replace…

Play store crashing when pressing search button

I got a pressing issue that’s been affecting a fleet of my Samsung devices since last night. The Play Store app on the devices crashes when I’m trying to search for apps. The crash appears instantly when the Search icon on the app is clicked. Does anyone have a fix for this??

Kiosk exits when tapped on the Home button for Android TV

Hey everyone, I’ve set up an Android TV in kiosk mode for a demo environment. The problem is, whenever someone presses the Home button on the remote, the kiosk app exits and goes back to the launcher. I thought kiosk mode should block this behaviour. Has anyone run into this issue?

Android Enterprise registration failing with Google Workspace domain anyone seen this? Solved

Hey all, I was trying to set up Android Enterprise enrollment, but we hit a wall while registering with our Google Workspace account. The setup page simply refuses to continue after signing. We’re using a Google domain for Workspace, so I assumed it would work, but apparently the enrollment keeps looping back without registering anything.…

Authenticator app crashes with ‘Access Denied’ when opening screen lock in kiosk mode

Hey everyone, I’m running into an issue on one of our Android devices in kiosk mode. We’re testing an authenticator app with passkeys/passwordless login. The app requires setting a screen lock to complete the login, but when the screen lock settings are opened, it shows “access denied” and the app crashes immediately. Has anyone run…

Can I block automatic software updates on Android?

Hey everyone, there was an issue with scanning barcodes using the Urovo mobiles used in one of our manufacturing facilities last day and it seems like it was due to the recent Android software update that occurred. I want to stop the automatic software update from happening to the devices in the rest of our facilities. Any way of doing that using Hexnode?

Add ability to update or create apps with manifest paths

Hey team, We sadly use custom ROM flashed android devices that don't allow us to own them through android enterprise the classic way. This means our options for automated deployment are slim, as you don't offer a way to upload .apk files directly to your API for distribution. Due to this restriction, it…

Control enrollment type without scanning a QR code

We're transitioning from one mdm software to hexnode, and running into an issue with our Network Certificates. If there was a way to specify enrollment type without having the scan the QR code to ensure that the devices are going to Android Enterprise mode so we can push the cert, that would be incredibly helpful.…

Use keyboard for Android Remote Control

It would be beneficial if users could use their computer keyboards to type remotely on the device, rather than having to click on the virtual keyboard. This feature would allow me, and likely many other users, to stop using TeamViewer and consider upgrading to Ultimate.

Different Lock- and homescreen wallpapers

Hi, Is it possible to assign a different wallpaper to the lock screen than the one for the homescreen from the MDM? If not, is it possible to request the feature, because I am currently doing it by hand and that goes right until there is a policy update.
