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 password retention, default home page and other settings on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) browser, which is the default browser on many Zebra Android devices and has been modified for this purpose.
Used to set the Default Home Page in the form of a Universal Resource Locator (URL) for the default Android web browser on the device. Each time the default browser is opened without a URL explicitly requested by the user, it will use the URL provided by this parameter. Should be a full, valid URL (including the protocol) such as "http://www.google.com" corresponding to the desired default web page. 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; any previously specified Default Home Page will be retained.
Parm value input rules:
Parm Name: SetDefaultHomepage
Requires:
- OSX: 1.3- 3.9
- NOT IN OSX: 4.0
- MX: 4.3+
Used to enable/disable the Remember Passwords Option for the default Android web browser.
Enabling Remember Passwords can make browsing more convenient by eliminating the need for the device user to enter a password on subsequent visits to a web site. Disabling Remember Passwords 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 is available only on Jelly Bean devices; it has been depreciated on Android KitKat and higher.
Parm Name: SetRememberPasswords
| Option | Name | Description | Requires |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | Do not change | This value (or the absence of this parm from the XML) will cause no change to the Remember Passwords Option; any previously selected setting will be retained. |
OSX: 1.3 - 3.9 NOT IN OSX: 4.0 MX: 4.3+ |
| 1 | Turn On | Enables the Remember Passwords option, which will prompt the user to save any password entered. |
OSX: 1.3 - 3.9 NOT IN OSX: 4.0 MX: 4.3+ |

OSX: 1.3 - 3.9 NOT IN OSX: 4.0 MX: 4.4+ |
Used to enable/disable the Save Form Data Option of the default Android web browser.
Enabling Save Form Data can make browsing more convenient by eliminating the need for the device user to re-enter information on subsequent visits to a form. Disabling Save Form Data 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 the Save Form Data Option; any previously selected setting will be retained. |
