Added support for Samsung devices with new security (2023-05-01 and above) for Unlock MDM (Apr. 2023) operation!
Note:
For Unlock MDM to work on devices with high security (2023-05-01 and above), the software disables the built-in lockscreen.
If you set up a password, pattern or PIN, the phone will NOT ask for it (it will only ask 1 time after the restart).
Banking or applications that require a password or biometrics WILL work.
You can use any third-party application to emulate lockscreen.
Improved MDM unlock operation (Apr. 2023).
For devices with security below 2023-05-01, a new unlocking method will be used.
All disadvantages of the old method have been removed:
- After the operation device will be fully functional. Smart Switch, Samsung Dex works
- You CAN perform a factory reset. The phone will NOT be re-locked
- The message “This device belongs to your organization” has been removed
- Problem with not receiving calls and notifications while screen is off, has been removed
- You CAN flash the device via download mode. We can't guarantee that the device will not be re-locked after flashing to newer firmware. It's at your own risk.
Notes:
- For safety, we disable OTA updates on the device, but you can update device using a download mode.
- Some devices do not support new method, so for them you need to use the old method.
Added the option to select the unlock method for Unlock MDM (Apr.2023) operation.
