Android 11 copy Wldep files

Hello,

I'm testing the new security rules for Andorid 11. I need to copy a Velocity .wldp file to a Zebra device. ( Yes, I know the recommended Google way it to do it with managed app config)

I can do this with the following article.

For some reason I see the host 2 times in Velocity but a delete command in the post-install script will fix this.

__chmod 777 /enterprise/usr/Test.wldep

sendintent -a "intent:file:///enterprise/usr/Test.wldep#Intent;type=text/plain;action=android.intent.action.VIEW;component=com.wavelink.velocity;end"

del /enterprise/usr/Test.wldep

I can copy the .wldep file to the devices. But, what if I need to place a new .wldep file there and delete the old file? Soti doesn't have access to the com.wavelink.velocity folder and a mxconfig command from stagenow to delete the file doesn’t work either.

You can send a stagenow command that will delete the application user data from the device and it will remove the wldep files but it will remove the license as well.

Has anyone found a better way to delete .wldep files from the application folder?

In reading through the guide in your attached link it would appear that you only need the _chmod 777 script on the .wldep and not the secondary intent script as well. I think you are possibly seeing duplicates because of running the intent script. The linked guide only has the intent script listed for *.wlxgp files.

Ivanti has made another workaround for this prblem with this app: Velocity File Assistant for Android 11

Hi Bastian,

Thanks for requesting a response from SOTI Support Staff,

As Matt suggested, sending intent script along with chmod, might be causing duplicates. Also as you mentioned work around for the issue can be found in link below
