I have an enterprise application with Kiosk mode. Android system update is downloading new android update(Like android 14 pending update) and ready for installation but did not install because my app is top of the system. I have configured my device policy to automatic update but system always postponed the update.  My device is user admin.


1. How can I force system to install the update without notifying the user?

If your EMM supports it, create a windowed system update policy. During these hours it will force the device out of kiosk to install

    Looks like that windowed time not allowed me to install update. I have set window time 12-14 (720-840). Almost 1 hour past not yet started updating or getting out from kiosk mode.

    Here's a doc  🙂


    For Samsung devices, I can also recommended SysDump if you primarily want to analyze the dumpstate log. 😃

    The content is bit different to the regular bug report, but you can access the dumpstate log even if the developer options are completely blocked.
