Android System Apps

During provisioning of devices, Android, by default, disables the built-in System Apps.  This of course, may be undesirable.

FileWave 15.3+ includes an additional custom setting to alter this behaviour.

Configuring the below will impact all Android devices during enrolment, where DPC Extras are supported.

DPC Extras

Device Provision Controller Extras are optional key/value pairs providing additional enrolment features and are only supported by some enrolment methods, as indicated by Google's article:

Android Provisioning Methods

Workaround

The following file should be edited:

/usr/local/filewave/django/filewave/settings_custom.py

Add an additional entry as shown:

EMM_PROVISIONING_DEFAULT_APPS_ENABLED = True

Once saved, restart the FileWave Server service:

fwcontrol server restart

Hosted customers should contact support to enable this feature if desired.
