How to configure Unitech devices with OEMConfig

OEMConfig is a new Android standard that allows device manufacturers (OEMs) to create custom enterprise features for their devices. Unitech OEMConfig (com.unitech.oemconfig) is the OEMConfig application developed by Unitech. It allows enterprises to configure and manage Unitech devices with its native management features. Hexnode provides a handy and intuitive interface where administrators can easily view and set up these Unitech-specific configurable items for devices.

Configure Unitech devices with Unitech OEMConfig

Before configuring Unitech devices, make sure to:

• Enroll your organization in the Android Enterprise program.
• Enroll your devices in Android Enterprise (Device Owner or Profile Owner).

Configuring devices with the Unitech OEMConfig app is a two-step process:

1. Approve and Add Unitech OEMConfig to the Hexnode inventory
2. Configure Unitech-specific settings
