Is there any possibility that you can connect the device back to the Wifi network? Are you able to pull down the notification panel?

Is there any network to which your device will auto-join on turning on the WiFi ?

Okay. I think you also set a WiFi Profile in it which doesn’t allow the device to connect to any other WiFi network
Do you remember blocking the Safe Mode for that device in the policy?

I have deleted the policies

that’s the last option as the Factory reset is also blocked. But do you still have that policy in your dashboard or did you delete it off from the dashboard as well?

Is there a sim card in the device? Are you able to turn on the Mobile data?

I guess you pretty much blocked every possibility to get out of the MDM. You can also try flashing the device with a custom ROM.
