KNOX fix / Missing Features / Alliance Rebirth / ShieldPro
Posted: Thu Nov 17, 2022 12:01 pm
Hi Dev , i have a couple of questions , please help me out .
So , i used to have Alliance Shield installed on my device for about 1 years ago , for some reasons i uninstalled it , now i want to try the app again as i heard that it has many improvement , bugs fixes , and new features , i have no issue with the installation process , no issue when i register a new account as i forgot my old username , i even set the app as device owner , and as soon as i enter the app i notice that it does not have as many features as the previous version .
The stuff that i notice to be missings are :
- it does not have the KNOX toggle in the app settings
- it does not have adblock/firewall options
- In the app manager it does not have the options to Rename app , Prevent app from stop , etc .
- Probably more missings features that i haven't notice or forgot
So , my questions are :
- Why some features are missings ? Is it because of samsung revoking the KNOX license ? From what i've read on XDA , it says that Shield got the KNOX license back but not allowed to use them for disabling , therefore only Device Owner works for disabling apps , is that true ? (Correct me if i'm wrong about this one)
- Why can't i disable the app 'activities' ? Even after i set Alliance as a Device Owner , even to a 3rd party app that isn't really important for the phone system to work properly ? Does it need KNOX or Root to do so ?
- From what i have read that with Shield Rebirth the app will be able to use KNOX again ? What exactly this Shield Rebirth really is , a completely different app , experimental features or a paid services/features for those who have the ShieldPro account ?
- With Shield Rebirth & ShieldPro account will i get all the missings features from the previous version ? E.g KNOX , Adblock/Firewall , Rename app , Prevent app etc.
- I saw this " this device belongs to your organization " thing on my lockscreen & quick settings control panel , is it possible to remove this ?
That is all of my questions , i'm sorry if there is a bad grammar , English is not my first language & still learning , but i hope you understand the questions .
Thanks.
