Hello Android Enterprise Team, We are experiencing a new issue with our Android device enrolments where the third-party MDM app(CyberArk MDM App) is not being installed during the sign-in process. App is configured in Android Management between our CyberArk tenant and Google domain, and user accounts are configured to do set-up for device owner enrolment. Previous device enrolments are still working as expected, and we first noticed this issue on 13-11-2023. No changes have been made to either the CyberArk configuration/device policy or to Google Admin. This issue is affecting all new Android device enrolments, even across Android versions (Android 10-14 affected). Could you please help to fix this issue? Thanks in advance Error Log: 11-24 14:35:49.411 3842 4105 I Auth : (REDACTED) [BroadcastManager] [BroadcastManager] Broadcasting bad device management=%s 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : [AccountStatusChecker] Error when fetching package info [CONTEXT service_id=343 ] 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : sdq: Invalid package signature for app=com.google.android.apps.work.clouddpc 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at sdr.c(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):190) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at sdr.a(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):39) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at sbq.a(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):221) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at sbp.p(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):34) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at sbp.q(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):8) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at sbp.m(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):11) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at sss.a(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):610) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at ssy.b(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):94) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at ssv.a(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):642) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at slx.h(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):3) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at ncu.n(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):284) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at ncu.c(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):1087) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at ncu.h(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):2) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at ncu.fe(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):147) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at mzt.onTransact(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):117) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at android.os.Binder.transact(Binder.java:949) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at bdrr.onTransact(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):10) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at android.os.Binder.transact(Binder.java:949) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at awwb.onTransact(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):147) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at android.os.Binder.execTransactInternal(Binder.java:1056) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at android.os.Binder.execTransact(Binder.java:1029) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : Caused by: android.content.pm.PackageManager$NameNotFoundException: com.google.android.apps.work.clouddpc 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at android.app.ApplicationPackageManager.getPackageInfoAsUser(ApplicationPackageManager.java:275) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at android.app.ApplicationPackageManager.getPackageInfo(ApplicationPackageManager.java:244) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at akut.e(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):7) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : at sdr.c(:com.google.android.gms@234414022@23.44.14 (100400-580326705):16) 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : ... 20 more 11-24 14:35:49.414 3842 4105 I Auth : [AccountStatusChecker] Canceling DM notification because of DM suppression [CONTEXT service_id=343 ] 11-24 14:35:49.416 3842 4105 W Auth : [GetToken] GetToken failed with status code: ThirdPartyDeviceManagementRequired
Assistance Needed: Fetching IMEI Number Programmatically in Android
Dear Android Community, I am currently working on an Android application where I need to fetch the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number programmatically. However, I am facing some challenges in implementing this functionality, especially with regards to the latest Android versions and privacy considerations. I am reaching out to seek your expertise and guidance on the best practices to fetch the IMEI number in compliance with the Android security standards. I want to ensure that my application adheres to all the necessary permissions and privacy policies to access this sensitive information. If you have any relevant resources, code examples, or tips on how to retrieve the IMEI number programmatically in Android, I would be extremely grateful for your support.[Community tips] What to consider when choosing an enterprise mobility management solution?
Hello everyone, I hope you are having a good week. A management solution helps you to set up, secure and manage your devices in your organisation. I see it like a comfy hub for you to ensure that your devices are working as you expect (whatever size your company is). So understandably, one of the biggest decisions when getting started with Android at work is choosing the right EMM (Enterprise Mobility Management) for your needs. There is a solution out there to meet almost every need and use case, and sometimes knowing where to start can be tricky. We are lucky here in the community, that many people have already been through this decision and there is a huge amount of experience. The Solutions Directory is a useful place to explore partners and solution options, but there are also many questions and things to consider beforehand, so this got me thinking it would be great to share community tips/advice around this. What tips would you recommend to someone considering and researching EMMs management solutions? Are there any tips you wish you knew at the beginning? Perhaps you have tips on how best to research the different options? If you are currently going through the process, please do comment too, it would be great to hear from you. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks so much, Lizzie
Android 15 - Cannot set default password app
We use Microsoft Intune to manage devices. For the devices which have upgraded to Android 15, the end users can no longer select Microsoft Authenticator as their default application for auto filling passwords. I cannot find any settings in Intune to allow it. All devices are fully managed corporate owned devices. The devices are all Google Pixel 8 or 8a devices. Is this a bug in 15 or am I missing something?
