ATOK installation Failed in Corporate-owned devices with work profile
Hi, I have enrolled 2 samsung devices to intune using the Corporate-owned devices with work profile and assigned many applications to the devices. However, 1 specific application has failed to install stating the "country or region doesn't support this application." This is strange because in the same tenant I have other samsung devices enrolled as BYOD which is assigned this same application can install. I tried to reach out to intune support and they cannot do anything about this and asked me to raise ticket to google and I don't really know where I can raise the ticket to google regarding. Please help as I have to figure this out and deploy the application. PS: This application is available in the play store for the region and country. So the error message doesn't make sense. Thank you

Unable to add additional owners and administrators to Manage Google Play Store
We recently disconnected our Managed Google Play account from Intune, which was initially set up with a standard Google Account. Now, we are reconnecting Intune to our Managed Google Play account using a Managed Google account that is synchronized with our Entra ID SSO. This means we can sign in with our company domain (@mycompany.com) using our Entra ID password. We are able to enroll our Android phones into Android Enterprise and publish apps to our Managed Google Play store without issues. To ensure redundancy, Google highly recommends creating a secondary owner account in case the primary account is compromised. See Google KB . I'm following the guide on assigning roles in enterprises from the Managed Google Play Help. However, my Play Store account admin screen appears quite limited compared to what I should be seeing. Here’s a screenshot of my current view: Previously, when we used a personal Google account for our Managed Google Play Store, I could invite other users to become owners. This option seems to be missing since we switched to the managed account. Could there be additional permissions in the Google Workspace admin portal that we need to grant to the Managed Google Play account to enable the option to add additional owners?HELP! Enrollment Stuck on Choose Device Category
I need help. When enrolling a device on Intune, we are getting stuck on the Choose Device category page where it does not allow us to press the OK button. We have two vendors supplying us phones and the issue is happening with both vendors (devices are Pixel 8s and 9s). Please help!
Android Management API Returning HTTP 502
Hi, We have noticed that the Android Management API is currently not working. After a long delay, it returns an HTTP code 502 error. We have tested this across multiple accounts, and the behavior remains the same. Could someone provide clarification on this issue? Thank you.[Community tips] What guidance do you provide with new devices?
Hello everyone, I recently helped a family member set up their new phone (after their old one had a long and fruitful life 😃). It struck me how important it is to help, when needed, to guide someone through using a new device and highlight key features that they may be used to using (and any new ones). This made me think, this is a key area for work devices too and so I thought it might be interesting to hear how we do this across the community. For example, do you provide documentation with step-by-step instructions, guidance on device usage and key information, or assistance when switching device types or operating systems? It would be great to hear any tips you have for supporting colleagues with new devices, plus anything that would make your life easier when creating useful resources. Thanks so much, Lizzie
How to allow Android Enterprise Org ID can access opentest (or internal test) version of OEMConfig on Google Play?
We are trying to test OEMConfig with testing track (internal testing or closed testing) before make it public release new version to Google Play. However, the account with Enterprise Org ID is not able to access these versions. The account can only access Google Play App, private Apps. Is there any method to allow us accessing the testing track version apk in order to get the Schema of new version apk in order to submit to devices for configuration change. Attached screenshot show the managed Play iframe. It only show the public version of this app. Thanks AngusEnhancing Android Enterprise OS Update Management
Hi, The way the Android API implements OS update management on Android Enterprise devices is not particularly useful for devices with user affinity. Are there any upcoming API changes for EMM solutions like Microsoft Intune? From my experience with the current API: AUTOMATIC – The OS update is installed as soon as it becomes available via OTA, which is not practical for real-time scenarios. WINDOWED – Similar to AUTOMATIC but with the limitation that OS updates can only be installed within a defined maintenance window. This means that if a user needs to update their device due to a software bug fixed in the latest OS version, they may not be able to do so immediately if the maintenance window is set outside working hours. Source: https://support.google.com/work/android/answer/13791272?hl=en#zippy=%2Cmanaging-system-updates-using-system-update-policies Suggested Improvements: Provide an option to control OS updates on BYOD (Work Profile only). I understand that when enrolling a device through Work Profile, only the work container can be managed via EMM. Google may need to reconsider this approach. It would be beneficial to have an approach similar to Apple’s, where EMM admins can manage OS updates (e.g., push specific updates, set deadlines, etc.) through DDM (Declarative Device Management - Source: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/deployment/depc30268577/web ), even on BYOD devices (Device Enrollment) — without requiring supervision like DO (Device Owner mode). I’m aware that Samsung Knox E-FOTA exists, but it is limited to Samsung devices. Expanding this capability to all Android devices (like Google Pixel devices) would greatly improve update management in enterprise environments. BR, Marco
