AOSP Device Management Migration for Teams Rooms on Android - Early Preview

Microsoft recently announced a transition for Teams Rooms on Android and Teams Panels to a new device management solution using Microsoft Intune and Microsoft Authenticator, leveraging Android Open Source Project (AOSP) Device Management. This update is critical as Google is deprecating the Android Device Administrator model in future Android releases. 

Logitech is working closely with Microsoft to migrate all CollabOS devices to the new AOSP Device Management. 

Logitech AOSP Device Management Early Preview Participation

By participating, you will need to temporarily dedicate at least one device for testing the AOSP Device Management transition until the official launch.

Logitech AOSP Device Management Early Preview Overview

  • Managed by Logitech

  • Software update are delivered via Sync or Logitech Device Settings

  • There is no need to change Teams tenant from the one already used

Please note:

  • Once the transition is complete, you cannot downgrade the device’s software to a non-AOSP Device Management software. 

  • This device will get limited CollabOS updates until the AOSP device management feature is released officially. 

  • There will be multiple Logitech Early Preview software releases. 

  • Each release will need to be tested on a device that has already been migrated to AOSP. 

  • We recommend testing one device, per product category, for each software release e.g. (1) Tap Scheduler, (1) Tap IP, (1) Rally Bar/RoomMate, (1) Dock Flex (1)

Overview

The following steps will outline the process to transition Teams Android devices to AOSP Device Management.


This includes

  • Creating a new Intune Enrollment Profile

  • Creating a new Intune Compliance Policy

  • CollabOS Software update 

  • Confirmation after successful update

The guide is based on Moving Teams Android Devices to AOSP Device Management and Migrating Teams Android Devices to AOSP Device Management from Device Administrator

Create a new Intune Enrollment Profile

The first step in preparing devices for AOSP management is setting up enrollment profiles within Microsoft Intune:

Click Create Profile

  • Name the Profile appropriately

  • Enable “For Microsoft Teams devices”

  • Click Next to save the profile

Create a new Intune Compliance Policy

  • Go to Compliance or go directly to Compliance

  • Click Create Policy

  • Select Android (AOSP)

  • Click Create and name the profile appropriately

  • Click Next

  • Select “Block” in “Rooted devices”

  • Enter “10” in “Minimum OS version”

  • Select “Yes” for “Require encryption of data storage on device.”

  • Click Next

  • Select what is appropriate for your Compliance Policy

  • Click Next 

  • Add the group you want to associate the Compliance Profile with. (If you don’t see any groups or you need a new one first, then go to Groups and don’t forget to add members to the group)

  • Select the Group you want to assign. 

  • Click Select

  • Click Next

  • Click Create

Check Device Overview in Intune

Confirm the information is correct according to the data below

Configuration profiles (Optional)

Logitech’s recommendation is not to use Configuration Profiles for AOSP Device management in Intune, since the device will not function properly if it is used.
