Global contact lookup from system dialer via Outlook App
Hi everyone, I just trying to find out whether other Android Enterprise users/admins are struggeling with the same issue than we do. Our pain point is the user experience on making phone calls to (remote) contacts from an Android Enterprise device. Today, you can search personal and company / work profile contacts if they are saved to the local contact databases on the device. BUT you have to switch to another app (in our case MS Outlook) to search for remote contacts if you did not save/export the contact to the local contacts database. My DCR with MS is about a feature implementation into MS Outlook app to answer search requests for contacts from the dialer app directly into GAL. As far as I can see in the developer API of Android Enterprise this should be possible: Work profile contacts | Android Developers And: I did see this thing working on Android Enterprise enrolled devices on Google workspace! Are other admins thinking about this as well? Can we use the community to put pressure on Microsoft to make this a feature of Outlook? (if technically possible for sure!)
Device Owner Enrollment Error: “Organization Has Reached Its Usage Limits” Even With Zero Devices
Hi everyone, I’m trying to enroll a fully managed Android device using the Android Management API. I generate an enrollment token, create the QR code, factory reset the device, and start the QR-based provisioning process. Everything works until the Android Device Policy step, where I get the following error: “Since your organization has reached its usage limits, this device can’t be set up.” I am unable to get past this point. Here is what I have already checked: Listing devices through the API returns an empty list. There are no enrolled devices at all. Billing is active on the cloud project and the Android Management API is enabled. Enterprise creation works, policies return correctly, and I can generate enrollment tokens without any issues. The device is correctly factory reset and the QR scan is working as expected. I tested with both a Workspace-based enterprise and a Gmail-based enterprise. The same limit error appears on both, even though both enterprises have zero devices. I moved the cloud project under my organization in Google Cloud to avoid any project-level quota problems. Based on everything I have checked, it appears that the enterprise (or account) has been automatically restricted to a device quota of zero, and the restriction has not lifted even after several days. I would like to understand the following: Is this quota lock normal for new enterprises, and how long does it usually take to lift? Is this quota tied to AMAPI commercial approval? Is it expected that zero devices can be enrolled before approval? Is there any way to request a quota review so that at least one test device can be enrolled? I am building a commercial EMM solution and simply need to test device-owner provisioning on a physical device, but I am currently blocked by this limit. Any guidance from the community or anyone who has dealt with the same situation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Forced Auto Install Issues
Since mid-November '25, forced auto install is not functional for our organization. Apps are loaded and installable as work apps but do not progress as an auto install from our policy. Has anyone experienced a similar issue? No policy changes, no SW updates on the MDM client. Functionality just stopped working.
Common identifier between AMAPI & Require for setup app for validation
We are enrolling devices using AMAPI by generating a QR code with an assigned policy either for work profile or fully managed enrollment. During enrollment, the device prompts for a require for setup app, which, after configuration, returns RESULT_OK, marking the setup as complete and finalizing the device enrollment. Before returning RESULT_OK, To identify the enrolling device, the backend gets the device ID and enterprise ID from the Pub/Sub provisioning notification. The device ID (which matches the GSF ID) is then sent by the require for setup app to the backend for validation. This identifier is also used to enforce enrollment limits based on the enterprise license count. The Issue: Up to Android 14, retrieving the GSF ID was possible. However, in Android 15, it now returns null. Question: Is there an alternative identifier that can be used to identify the enrolling device—one that the backend can retrieve and that the setup app can also access during enrollment? Below is the information we receive from Pub/Sub when a device is enrolled: { "name": [*Hidden for privacy reasons] "managementMode": "PROFILE_OWNER", "state": "PROVISIONING", "enrollmentTime": "2025-04-04T06:17:02.751Z", "lastPolicySyncTime": "2025-04-04T06:17:02.817Z", "softwareInfo": { "androidVersion": "15", "androidDevicePolicyVersionCode": 10323580, "androidDevicePolicyVersionName": "128.32.3 (10323580)", "androidBuildNumber": "AP3A.240905.015.A2", "deviceKernelVersion": "5.15.149-android13-8-00010-gc2e0ba41ba85-ab12040008", "bootloaderVersion": "unknown", "androidBuildTime": "2025-03-11T13:26:50Z", "securityPatchLevel": "2025-03-01", "primaryLanguageCode": "en-IN", "deviceBuildSignature": "c9009d01ebf9f5d0302bc71b2fe9aa9a47a432bba17308a3111b75d7b2143456", "systemUpdateInfo": { "updateStatus": "UP_TO_DATE" } }, "hardwareInfo": { "brand": "Redmi", "hardware": "mt6835", "deviceBasebandVersion": "MOLY.NR17.R1.TC8.PR2.SP.V1.P51,MOLY.NR17.R1.TC8.PR2.SP.V1.P51", "manufacturer": "Xiaomi", "serialNumber": [*Hidden for privacy reasons] "model": "23124RN87I", "enterpriseSpecificId": [*Hidden for privacy reasons] }, "policyName": [*Hidden for privacy reasons] "memoryInfo": { "totalRam": "5865836544", "totalInternalStorage": "806965248" }, "userName": [*Hidden for privacy reasons] "enrollmentTokenName": [*Hidden for privacy reasons] "securityPosture": { }, "ownership": "PERSONALLY_OWNED" } *Updated by Community admin - removed due to privacy reasons 4 April
Enable ADB debugging is grayed out - This setting is managed by your administrator
This issue was documented in 2021 but with no solution. My Chromebook is managed by my company and I am the manager. But Google tries to find the managed option to unlock for this to work in the administration interface for more than 15 days without success. By the way there are thousands of options in the admin interface it could be a clever feature to number them. If you are in front of the same issue please add your comments to this post. I hope that Google support will succeed to solve the issue soon because I developed my first app for Android on my Chromebook with Android Studio and I was able to download it to my phone before these 15 days.Tech Newbie interested in mobile cyber security, after multiple hacking events, seeking suggestions, tips, advice etc, to get involved.
Hello All, I am looking for advice, tips, suggestions, or helpful info, to begin a career/ journey into the world of Mobile Cyber Security and Tech. My interest was sparked after multiple hacking events that were very damaging to my life, my digital life, my work life, my relationships, my mental, physical, and emotional health, my data, information, and intellectual property of my business, and more. Now I am being pulled to learn how to protect myself first, and second so that I may be able to help others. I guess Ethical Hacking is the term. Any info helps. Thank you, Androidc3po
Android Exchange Sync Problems: Contacts and Calendar Not Updating
Hello, I manage a fleet of more than 1,000 Samsung Android devices using Omnissa Workspace One (AirWatch), devices are enrolled in COPE. We use Gmail, Google Calendar, and the native Samsung Contacts app in the work profile, all synchronized through an Exchange ActiveSync connector. Since Wednesday, November 26th, we have been experiencing synchronization issues: - Contacts and calendar events saved on Exchange disappear after some time. - The Calendar app eventually shows an “Unauthorized Action” error and refuses to open. - Gmail continues to sync emails normally. The issue occurs randomly (sometimes after one hour, sometimes longer). Clearing Gmail’s app data and signing in again temporarily resolves the problem, but the issue always comes back. We've tryied uninstalling and reinstalling the app through our MDM but we can only do it user by user and we're not sure about it fixing the issue. We have no means to "rollback" Gmail's version to an older one through our MDM, i've tryied uninstalling recent updates on one of my test phones, it's seems stable for the moment. We noticed that Gmail received an update recently, and a couple of other fleet managers have reported the same problem since that update on Play store's comments. Have you identified any bug or recent change in Gmail that could affect Exchange/ActiveSync synchronization? Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Enable third-party Android mobile management
Hey Android Enterprise community, I'm trying to understand what the "Enable third-party Android mobile management" checkbox in Google Admin does. How does this affect situations where multiple Android Enterprises are bound to multiple EMM solutions? Will both Android Enterprise continue working if they are bound to different EMM solutions, even if only one is selected on the screen above? If I use the Enrollment token link method to provision a device and have no users in my Google Workspace, will switching the EMM provider in the dropdown below the checkbox have any effect? Also, does Authenticate Using Google affect provisioning if there are no users in Google Workspace? Thanks, MarkoIntune COPE Device - Google Calendar crashes
Hello everyone, We have the problem that when I want to make the Google Calendar app available on a COPE device, it crashes after the welcome screen with the message "action not allowed". On Work Profile Only/BYOD it works without any problems. Are you aware of this problem? Could this be related to Intune automatically/default blocking the Google accounts in COPE? Thanks, Regards, Daniel
