Comment on Unremovable Spyware on Samsung Devices Comes Pre-installed on Galaxy Series Devices
flubba86@lemmy.world 4 months agoI think the user is referring to the fact that MS Intune is famously very cautious about verifying the device it is running on.
Many people need to use Intune on their device, to get access to work apps (eg, Teams and Outlook). If you have a rooted device, or run a non-stock OS, then Intune will fail the validation and prevent you from signing into your work accounts.
This is the reason I don’t currently use a rooted or alternative android on my primary smartphone.
Will intune work without a sim card? I have an old phone that is in airplane mode, no sim card but does have Google services.
I just realized as long as it gets the notifications wirelessly it could be my intune authenticator device and live for only that purpose.
Does it require a phone number or only a ms login?
I currently have intune in a jail on my other android device but I want to get graphene os.
Former Intune support engineer here - can confirm that using it in airplane mode will work fine. As part of my support case reproduction testing equipment, I purchased a refurbished Galaxy S10e ages ago and never had a sim for it or any cellular service, only WiFi.
Is it just not in the cards to request a separate device for work, I know I would tell my employer that I cannot guarantee that my personal device will meet their expectations.
Yes. I can request a phone from work to use, but that’s lots of work, business justification, need to submit monthly expense reports for calls, and report data usage. Plus I’d need then to carry around two phones. There are lots of people at my work who do that. I don’t want the hastle.
Then I have to carry two devices. I just have a custom phone and a stock tablet, this works out ok. Except the stock tablet is a Samsung and the software is super annoying
