This document contains "SmartDocs" capabilities. This will allow you to easily see only the content that is relevant to the Zebra device you are working with.
MX Features will be available on a device based on a combination of factors:
After identifying the version information for your device, simply select them in the SmartDocs bar. Any section that does not apply to your device will be greyed out. You can clear all settings by hitting the SmartDocs button. Clicking the back and next buttons on the SmartDocs bar will navigate to the sections that are relevant to your device.
The Browser Manager permits the configuration of browser settings such as the default home page.
Many Zebra Android devices include a default Web Browser that contains modifications to the stock Android Open Source Project (AOSP) Web Browser source code. The key changes enable configurability of selected settings, and the BrowserMgr is used to configure those settings.
This parm allows you to set the Default Home Page URI of the Default Android Web Browser. Each time the Default Android Web Browser is opened without an explicitly requested URI, it will use to the URI to the Default Home Page URI. To produce successful results, a full, valid URI to a desired web page should be supplied, such as "www.google.com". This could be used to launch a specific web-based application or to direct users to an internal company web site or portal as a starting point for browsing. Specifying an empty (length of zero) value (or the absence of this parm from the XML) will cause no change to the current Default Home Page.
Parm value input rules:
Parm Name: SetDefaultHomepage
Requires:
- OSX: 1.3- 3.9
- NOT IN OSX: 4.0
- MX: 4.3+
This parm will allow you to turn the Remember Passwords Option of the Default Android Web Browser On or Off.
Turning the Remember Passwords Option On can make browsing more convenient by eliminating the need for the device user to enter the same password later. Turning the Remember Passwords Option Off is generally more secure, especially on a device that might be shared, since it would prevent an unauthorized user from logging in using a password that was previously entered by an authorized user.
Note: This feature has been depreciated from KitKat onwards. This is available on Jelly Bean devices.

Option | Name | Description | Requires |
---|---|---|---|
0 | Do not change | This value (or the absence of this parm from the XML) will cause no change to whether the Remember Passwords Option is turned On or Off. |

This parm will allow you to turn the Save Form Data Option of the Default Android Web Browser On or Off.
Turning the Save Form Data Option On can make browsing more convenient by eliminating the need for the device user to re-enter the same information into the same form later. Turning the Save Form Data Option Off is generally more secure, especially on a device that might be shared, since it would prevent an unauthorized user viewing or re-entering sensitive information that was previously entered by an authorized user.
Parm Name: SetSaveFormData
Option | Name | Description | Requires |
---|---|---|---|
0 | Do not change | This value (or the absence of this parm from the XML) will cause no change to whether or the Save Form Data Option is turned On or Off. |
OSX: 1.3 - 3.9 NOT IN OSX: 4.0 MX: 4.3+ |
1 | Turn On | This value will turn the Save Form Data Option On, which will give the device user the option to save form data so it can be automatically re-entered into the same form later. |
OSX: 1.3 - 3.9 MX: 4.3+ |
2 | Turn Off | This value will turn the Save Form Data Option Off, which prevent any saving of form data. |
