Device screen sensitivity
Hello AE community, Our users encounter screen sensitivity issue while using a screen proctection on their devices, Device impacted is Samsung A9+, There is a setting to enhance screen sensitivity but it is not manageable thought Ivanti NMDM, or Knox Service Plugin. We also use Bluebird devices, for this manufacturer, sensitity setting is manageable using their OEM Config app. Is there another method to manage this setting ? Should i make a FER (Feature Enhancement Request) to Samsung directly ? Regards Batlac
Unable to Add Work Profile on HONOR Magic V5 for Microsoft Intune Enrollment
Dear Android Enterprise Support Team, I am experiencing an issue while attempting to enroll my HONOR Magic V5 device into Microsoft Intune for device management. I just bought the device one week ago, but when I try to add a work profile, I receive the following error message: "Can't add work profile. A work profile can't be added to this HONOR Magic V5. If you have questions, contact your IT admin." This issue is preventing me from completing the enrollment process required by my organization. I have already consulted with my company’s global IT support team, and they confirmed that there is no alternative solution on our side. The only way to resolve this issue is for HONOR to make the HONOR Magic V5 compatible with the Microsoft Intune application and Android Enterprise work profile enrollment. Device Details: Model: HONOR Magic V5 OS Version: Magic OS 9.0.1 Android version: 15 Model: MBH-N49 Error Screenshot: attached as below Could you please advise if this device supports Android Enterprise work profiles or if there are any compatibility limitations? If there is a workaround or firmware update required, kindly provide guidance. Your prompt assistance would be greatly appreciated as this is impacting my ability to comply with company security policies.
Fido2 key and their issues using them on Android
First, do Android support using Fido2 keys on Android? Yes, it does support both using bluetooth, NFC and USB authentication. For reference: https://developers.google.com/identity/fido/android/native-apps But does it mean that it is straight forward to use it in a enterprise environment without hiccups? No, the support lacks many features that both Windows and iOS has supported for long time. If I buy a modern Fido2 with OTP support, will it work straight out of the box for using the USB? No, you need to disable the OTP support first. Here is how you can do that from yubikey manager, this works for Yubikey. Other vendors might have something similar. But for Fido2 keys without OTP support, it should work out of the box for USB-C, like Google titan. Why this happens, dont know. Can we use NFC for Entra ID authentication like we can on Windows and iOS? No. Android does not currently support CTAP2 for NFC, only for USB-C input. CTAP1 (FIDO U2F) supports certificate based authentication, but CTAP supports user verification with PIN and biometrics. Entra ID requires UV (user verification) before accepting login. As far as I know, there is also support for bluetooth. But I dont have any fido2 keys that support bluetooth yet. So why does this matter? With Android you can have shared devices with secure login for multiple users with a single log in for all supported apps, auto log off and many other possibilities. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity-platform/msal-shared-devices Other sources/discussions: https://www.reddit.com/r/yubikey/comments/1oncuh2/whats_the_point_of_nfc_on_android/ https://www.reddit.com/r/yubikey/comments/13tlzoc/fido2_inconsistent_across_windowsandroid/ https://fidoalliance.org/specifications/

Restoring Data on a Fully Managed (Device Owner) Android Device During Enrollment
Hello everyone, I’m testing the setup (enrollment) of a Device Owner / Fully Managed Android device, and I’ve run into a question about restoring data. When setting up a personal Android device, you typically get the option to sign in with a Google account and restore apps/data from a backup. However, when I try this on my test device with the fully managed (Device Owner) enrollment flow, it goes straight into the MDM provisioning process. I don’t see the Google sign-in page or any option to restore data from my Google backup. My questions: Is this the expected behaviour for Device Owner (fully managed) setups? Are there any official guides or best practices for restoring user data in this scenario (if supported)? Thanks in advance for any guidance or documentation links!
Unable to install certificates for WiFi
Our MDM is using an internal app to install certificates that can be managed by our platform. The problem is when trying to set up corporate EAP-TLS networks, the device is unable to use the installed certificate for WiFi authentication. We see that identity certificates that can be installed programatically via DevicePolicyManager.installKeyPair(ComponentName admin, PrivateKey privKey, Certificate[] certs, String alias, boolean requestAccess) are installed under User Credentials settings section but for VPN and apps usage, not for WiFi, which is what the network configuration is expecting. Is there any other Android SDK API we can use in order to install the certificates for WiFi usage? Many thanks.
