FX808 1.5.0

December 13, 2023

Improvements

  • “Enforce OEM locked state” security feature: OEM or “Original Equipment Manufacturer” or simply OEM locking is an added security feature which Android device manufacturers use to protect unauthorized access to the device's Bootloader. This ultimately helps safeguard the Android Operating System running on a device from being interfered in any way
  • USB device filtering: Adding a system property to limit the USB devices that can be connected to the Famoco device, or to forbid a specific USB device to be enumerated on the Famoco device. This feature introduces two blacklists (and maybe some white list in the future) containing the USB port to blacklist and a vendor ID product ID couple to block. This feature is manageable as of MDM release 2.22 but not open to end customers because of its setup complexity. Please contact support should you need this feature
  • Set Famoco NTP server as default
  • Improve camera focus speed
  • Intent Firewall customization: FX808 uses an Android feature called intent firewall which allows for the enforcement of intents based on rules defined in XML files; see Android Intent Firewall - Carter Yagemann. Because of the risks associated to allowing customers to modify it, Famoco provides a default set of rules and can issue new ones for specific requests; please contact support if you believe you need it

  • Apply 2022-03-01 security bulletin for Android 10

  • NFC Bluetooth pairing: made optional
