Seeing spike in HARDWARE_BACKED_EVALUATION_FAILED for Android 16 devices.
We are seeing a spike in HARDWARE_BACKED_EVALUATION_FAILED in https://developers.google.com/android/management/reference/rest/v1/enterprises.devices#securityrisk field in AMA Device response. We are seeing this mostly in the Android 16 customers and for some users it went away without any change on their side. So it does not seem anything wrong with the devices and seems random. Anyone else facing this with AMA or play integrity?
problematic re-enrollment following smartphone reset under Android 15
Hey Everyone, Since a couple of weeks, we are encountering a problem with the re-enrollment of devices that have moved to Android 15. our employees arrive on the next screen : I reproduced the incident under the following conditions : Step 1 , the device is enrolled on Omnissa WSP1 in COBO with personnal Google Account Step 2 , for some reasons, the device is erased (example : 10 errors code) Step 3 , the profil in KME or Zero Touch is Microsoft Intune & no more Omnissa Step 4 , It seems that the KME or ZERO Touch verification did not happen at the right time. Step 5 , our employees have to proove the use of the device like a personal device ! We didn't encounter this problem for devices in Android 13 or 14. The devices i used : Motorola g54 5G Android 15 V1TDS35H.83-20-5-5 security patch : 1 july 2025 Samsung A35 - SM-A356B Android 15 AP3A.240905.015.A2.A356BXXS5BYF3 security patch : 1 july 2025 We have several thousand devices left to migrate to Microsoft Intune, this new enrollment behavior is unacceptable for 100% company devices. Our fleet is fully managed in KME or Zero Touch. Can you investigate this incident? Chris
Device Owner Provisioning
My company is building a startup that utilizes Android boxes, and we want to have a way to provision applications to all of the devices and control their configurations remotely. I had a brief look at "device owner provisioning," and it seems like the right thing. Do we have to use an EMM, or can we use the management API by ourselves? Is there a way to get a technical support on call to discuss the best path for us? Main requirements: - The user does not have to log into the Play Store on the device to receive application updates. - The only application that can be used on the device is the one we provision (Kiosk mode). - Preferably, restrict device settings so only specific settings are visible to the user. - Management of thousands of devices. Constraints: - Devices do not have NFC or a camera.
Unlinking Zero Touch Account from deleted Enterprise
Hi, we are currently trialing automatic device enrollment using a Zero Touch Account and baramundi Management Suite as our EMM solution. It all worked well, until I deleted the Android Enterprise account before unlinking it from our Zero Touch account. When I now try to create a new enterprise and link it to our Zero Touch account, it says that it's already linked and I can't proceed to the actual Zero Touch console within the iFrame in the EMM. Sadly I can't change the display language for the iframe. It says "Choose accounts to be linked" and the light grey part next to the checkbox says "already linked". I'm only presented the option to go back and choose another Google account. There doesn't appear to be an option on the web portal version of Zero Touch (https://enterprise.google.com/android/zero-touch/customers/) to unlink the enterprise either. When I try to delete the enterprise it warns me to unlink the Zero Touch account before proceeding and tells me that all enterprise related data will be deleted after 30 days. So my question is: Is there another way to unlink the enterprise from the Zero Touch Account or do I simply wait for 30 days and then the link is deleted automatically? Peter
Control Wi-Fi Calling settings
Hi there, hope you're well. Just wondering is it possible to control the Wi-Fi Calling settings within Android via MDM? The closest thing I've seen is to use Knox Asset Intelligence to check Wi-Fi Calling setting status on Samsung devices: https://docs.samsungknox.com/admin/knox-asset-intelligence/dashboard/network-insights/wifi-calling-setting-status/ Thank you for your help & input in advance!Play Store number of downloads counter
Hi all, Just had a question which might seem quite easy, but couldn't find the answer. I wonder how the number of downloads accompanying an application in the Play store compares to the number of downloads not done manually by a user, but downloads based on apps pushed from an EMM. For several applications, I see relatively low numbers of downloads in the Play store. Based on these low numbers, I can practically guarantee that downloads via Managed Google Play are not included here. In itself plausible, but I have not been able to read anywhere in documentation whether or not this is correct, can anyone confirm this. At the same time if MGP downloads do not count towards the number of downloads listed in the Play Store with the app, are MGP downloads counted separately somewhere? Thank you in advance, TomOTA cache host is down
Hello peeps I fancied running automated network connectivity checks in one of my apps. Pulled in the list from the Devices category of network requirements and it looks like one of the OTA cache servers has been down for at least a week. ota-cache2.googlezip.net I raised it quietly but figured it was worth calling out here also.
SCEP and EAP/TLS
Hi Team, I'm so sorry to ask this but it is expected that whenever I select the SSID of a Wi-Fi network that contains a SCEP and EAP/TLS configuration, it will show a popup example below? The policy for SCEP and EAP/TLS are already being configured by third-party MDM and we just assume that we don't need to do this manually on each devices.[Feedback] App installs: share your experiences & suggestions
Hello everyone, Our team is always interested to hear your insights around the current employee experience on managed Android devices and profiles (Work Profile). One specific area of focus is the application installation experience, particularly for apps installs that happen while the device is in use (not part of initial setup). The installation experience can vary depending on a variety of factors - the device model and Android version, configuration of your EMM’s DPC client, management mode of the device (fully managed vs. Work Profile), the permissions required by the app, the source of installation, permission policies, etc. Based on your setup, it would be fantastic to hear some of your user experiences and what improvements you’d potentially like to see? I know this is an interesting topic for many of you, so I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts, feedback and having a good conversation. Massive thanks in advance, Lizzie
Google Keyboard configuration Intune
Hi, I would like to know how to configure the Google Keyboard using Microsoft Intune. Specifically, I need to set up the keyboard with dual language support (Italian and German) on my Android devices managed through Intune. Could anyone help me achieve this goal?
