Zero-Touch-Registration is not available

Dear Community Members,

 

We are currently encountering an issue with the enrollment of three recently acquired Samsung S23 devices. While we are able to successfully enroll other devices, these specific models are presenting a persistent problem.

 

The error message displayed is as follows: "Zero-Touch Registration is not available. Check your internet connection and try again."

 

To address this, we have attempted the following troubleshooting steps:

  1. Utilized mobile data from various carriers as well as Wi-Fi connections, yet the error persists.
  2. Formatted the devices.
  3. Completely removed the devices from the Zero-Touch portal (https://partner.android.com/zerotouch#) and subsequently re-added them.
  4. Attempted manual enrollment using the QR Code provided by Intune.

Despite these efforts, the issue remains unresolved. Interestingly, we have successfully enrolled a Samsung XCover 5 without encountering any similar difficulties.

 

We are reaching out to inquire if others in the community are experiencing similar challenges with Samsung S23 devices. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

 

Kind regards,

Zackory

    Hello ZackoryEricWweberdaVarun3330Oliver_ReitzSagarlpsAndriusG@LFagni@Peter, @Marina, @EdwinK, @HarmonJames, @treborny, xfiha 

     

    Once again, thank you all for you help and discussion here.

     

    I just wanted to update you that we now have a service announcement here in the Customer Community. I think you are all aware of the content already shared in it, but I still wanted to make you aware of it. 

     

    Due to the time of year I imagine that there won't be many more updates on this until the new year, but if I receive anything earlier I will continue to monitor and share. 

     

    Thank you again and speak to you again soon.

     

    Lizzie

      Hi Lizzie,

       

      just FYI: I have the same problem with at least one S21 5G device in my company (MS Intune). 

       

      Regards,

      Björn

      Hello Lizzie,
      Even we can confirm that we have a Samsung S22 modell that is getting the same error.
      I can see your comment is from 3 weeks ago. Any update on this?

    Yesterday, I was able to setup a brand new out of the S23 phone from Verizon with no issues.  I checked that it was listed in our Android Zero Touch portal, made sure it had the correct assigned configuration. Turned on the phone and it went through the zero touch setup and connected with Microsoft Intune just like it should with no issues.  Hopefully that is a good sign, that the issue is getting resolved.

      Thanks for the update EricW, great to hear. How are the other devices you were trying to register?

        For the other devices that I was having issues with, I was able to skip the Android Zero touch, and scan the QR code in Intune to get the phone enrolled.

      Maybe this is because you had Android v.13 on S23 that's why you didn't have any issues.
      I had the same experience with S22 UNTIL I upgraded to latest android version and reset the device.
      You could try to upgrade a test S23 to the latest android version and see.

    Hello everyone,

     

    I hope you are all having a good start to the 2024! 

     

    I just wanted to come back to you to say that the update before the end of last year is still the most up-to-date information I have. If you haven't seen our service announcement with more details, please take a look here. To add, I believe the date Samsung are working to provide an update for this issue is February 2024. If anything changes on this I will be sure to let you know. 

     

    I am continuing to gather additional information from the community and feeding this back to the team, so if anyone else is impacted please do let me know. 

     

    Once again, I am sorry you are experiencing this and hope to speak with you more soon.

     

    Thank you,

     

    Lizzie

    Is this issue/event completely over?

    We are having issues in a somewhat similar scenario.


    In our case, it is with Samsung S23s with Android 14 enrolling into MS Intune, while using Samsung Knox Mobile Enrollment (as opposed to Google Zero-Touch Portal).

     

    The process gets to a point where Chrome is browsing to https://play.google.com. The page just says: Please click here to continue. No matter how many times we tap on that page, nothing happens. Eventually, if waiting a long enough time, the phone just restarts and is in some weird state.

    This is what it looks like.

     

     

    We've asked MS, but they say once they direct the page to Google's server, then it is all controlled by Google at that point.

     

    Incidentally, I tried to start a new post with this, but, after waiting several hours, it never showed up. I'm assuming it was rejected?

     

    Thanks.

    Maybe if someone is interested:

    We faced the issue as well, that some (in this case a batch of 5) devices now weren't able to detect zero-touch and enrolled as a consumer device.

    It didn't help to set them to "no configurtion" and assign back the correct one manually per device BUT doing the same via a batch file solved it for us (at least for those).

    Lizzie Not sure if it makes sense for Google to look into this if there's any difference and why this can happen.
