MDM

A Mobile Device Management (MDM) system is used for centralized management and monitoring of tablet devices. The system manages the operation of all tablets that students have received at school and, with simple administration, also serves to protect students and their rights.

The tablets listed were procured by the Ministry of Science and Education within the "Schools for Life" project. The questions, answers, and instructions available on this page relate to the aforementioned tablets that have been registered within the MDM system.

Questions and answers

Tablet use

Is it possible to remove the protective case from a tablet device?

The protective case is an integral part of the device, permanently attached and cannot be removed. Attempting to detach or remove the protective case is contrary to the warranty terms and instructions for the use of the tablet device. Any device on which an attempt to remove the case has been detected will no longer be covered by the manufacturer's warranty, and any malfunctions of such a device will be the responsibility of the user at their own expense.
Attempting to remove the protective case will cause physical damage to the tablet itself (damage to the tablet's casing, power and volume buttons, screen breakage, etc.).
How are apps installed?
Apps on tablets are installed through the MDM system. App installations are not possible through the „Play Store“. If you want to install additional apps on the devices, please contact the MDM system administrator for tablet management at your school.
How do I reset a tablet if the screen is unresponsive to touch?

Restarting the tablet can be done by holding down the power button for 10 to 15 seconds, and the tablet will restart.

How can the device be restored to factory settings through Android settings?

Note: Before returning the device to factory settings, you need to remove the previously added @skole.hr account through the ProMDM Fort application by selecting the “three dots” option in the upper right corner, and then selecting the “Remove “gsuite skole.hr” account” option. 

It is necessary to go to the Android system settings in the following steps:

”Settings -> System -> Advanced -> Reset options -> Erase all data (factory reset) -> Reset tablet”

To definitively confirm the deletion of all data on the device and restore it to factory settings, select ”DELETE ALL”.


What if the user has forgotten the PIN and cannot use the tablet; how do you reset the device?

If the user forgets the tablet's PIN, they need to contact the school's tablet administrator to remove the PIN through the MDM system. Removing the PIN through the MDM system is only possible if the tablet is connected to the internet. Otherwise, the device needs to be reset to factory settings as follows. For help with resetting the device to factory settings, please contact the CARNET helpdesk. 

What is the supported microSD card capacity?
The maximum capacity of an microSD card can be 128GB.

Where is the application for SIM card and tablet registration located in the "School for Life" project?
On the link szz.carnet.hr An application for tracking School of Life SIM cards and tablets is available. Access is granted to all directory administrators and resource administrators in schools.

Is the password to enter the Android system on the back of the tablet device?
The user code to log into Android is not on the back of the tablet. Under no circumstances is it permitted to remove the protective case/cover of the tablet.

The tablet has a screen protector with the text „Please remove the protective film before first use“. I want to keep the screen protector, do I have to remove it as instructed on the sticker?
The protective film with the sticker „Please remove the protective film after installation, and before the first use of the device“ serves to protect the device during shipping and initial installation and must be removed before use so that the touch functionalities of the screen work correctly. Underneath the film with the sticker „Please remove the protective film after installation, and before the first use of the device“ is a permanent screen protector which should not be removed.

Can a school within the MDM system register tablets that were procured outside the School for Life project?
Schools can enroll tablets purchased outside of the "Škola za život" project within the MDM system, provided that these tablets have the Android operating system. It is possible that not all globally available applications within the MDM system and all functionalities developed for tablets purchased as part of the project will work on such tablets, depending on the Android version on the tablet device. If you plan to purchase tablets to be enrolled within the MDM system, we recommend that you first try to enroll one sample tablet before purchasing a larger number of devices.

Is it necessary to send the tablet in the original box for service?
To prevent damage to the tablet during shipping to and from the service center, we recommend delivering the device for repair in its original packaging or in specialized courier service packaging. Specialized courier service packaging must be a rigid box, with sufficient space left between the tablet and the edges of the box (according to courier service recommendations). The tablet must be packed in a plastic, waterproof film. The remaining empty space in the box needs to be filled with padding to prevent the device from moving during transport. Never pack items together; if you are sending multiple tablets, each tablet must be packed separately.

To whom is the invoice for out-of-warranty repairs sent?
S&T Croatia issues an invoice for the repair service to the school after repairing a device that is out of warranty. The school collects the repaired device from the S&T service center, or, as instructed by the school, S&T ships the repaired device to the specified address at the school's expense.

Inquiries about the price of the new tablet must be sent to the Ministry of Science and Education. kurikulum@mzo.hr, for inquiries related to repairs, e.g., screens and other components, you need to send an inquiry to the S&T helpdesk email. helpdesk@snt.hr 

Should the SIM card be removed from the tablet when sending the device for service?
SIM cards must be removed from the tablet when the device is sent for service and stored in a safe place so they can be reinstalled after the device returns from service.
