The "SmartDocs" bar can customize this page to show only the features present on a particular Zebra device.
OSX, MX and Android version information for a device can be found in the Android Settings panel or by querying the device through ADB, EMDK or the MX CSP. More info.
GMS Manager (GmsMgr) controls which Google Mobile Services (GMS) apps are available on a Zebra device, giving device administrators improved control over data privacy and the flow of device information to third parties.
A device with the GmsProfile parameter set to "Restricted" is said to be in "GMS Restricted mode," which disables many primary GMS applications and services, including (but not limited to):
The Restricted setting also renders inoperable secondary applications and services that rely on those primary services, including:
time.android.com
Zebra recommends thoroughly testing devices before deployment.
Controls the GMS applications and services allowed to run on the device.
IMPORTANT: If GMS apps were previously disabled using the "DisableGMSApps" App Manager Action, the apps must be re-enabled using the "EnableGMSApps" App Manager Action prior to upgrading the device for the purpose of enabling GMS Manager. Failure to do so can result in unpredictable behavior. NOTE: It is NOT possible to transition a device to a new OS and to implement GMS Restricted mode with a single XML profile.
Note: Supported only on SDM660-platform devices running Android 10 or later. Zebra recommends a device Restart following this action.
