Understanding the Importance of the Google's EMM EnterpriseID and how to find EnterpriseID



Understanding the Importance of the EnterpriseID in Google's EMM Program and locate EnterpriseID


As more and more organizations adopt mobile devices and cloud-based services, managing and securing these devices has become a top priority. Google's Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) program offers a solution for managing mobile devices and apps in the enterprise. One of the key elements of this program is the EnterpriseID, which is a unique identifier assigned to each organization that enrolls in EMM.
Google EMM EnterpriseID

So what exactly is an EnterpriseID, and why is it important for EMM?
An EnterpriseID is a unique identifier that is assigned to an organization when they enroll in Google's EMM program. This ID is used to identify the organization within Google's systems and is required for managing devices and deploying apps through EMM.

Why is the EnterpriseID important for EMM? There are a few reasons:

Device management: The EnterpriseID is used to manage devices in EMM. When devices are enrolled in EMM, they are associated with the organization's EnterpriseID. This allows administrators to manage these devices and apply policies and configurations to them.

App deployment: The EnterpriseID is also used to deploy apps to devices in EMM. When an app is deployed through EMM, it is associated with the organization's EnterpriseID. This allows administrators to control which apps are available to users and ensure that only authorized apps are installed on company-owned devices.

API integration: The EnterpriseID is used to set up the Google Mobile Management (GMM) API, which allows EMM administrators to manage devices and apps programmatically. This API is used to integrate EMM with other enterprise systems, such as helpdesk and inventory management tools.

Now that we understand why the EnterpriseID is important, let's take a look at how to find it. If you are the administrator of an organization that has enrolled in Google's EMM program, you can find the EnterpriseID in the Google Cloud Console or the Google Admin Console.

To find the EnterpriseID in the Google Cloud Console, follow these steps:

  • Log in to the Google Cloud Console with your EMM administrator account.
  • In the left-hand navigation menu, click on "IAM & Admin."
  • Click on "Settings" in the submenu that appears.
  • Under "Organization Settings," you should see your EnterpriseID listed.

To find the EnterpriseID in the Google Admin Console, follow these steps:


  • Log in to the Google Admin Console with your EMM administrator account.
  • In the left-hand navigation menu, click on "Billing."
  • Under "Subscriptions," you should see your EnterpriseID listed next to your EMM subscription.
  • If you do not have access to either the Google Cloud Console or the Google Admin Console, you may need to contact your EMM administrator or Google Workspace support for assistance in finding your EnterpriseID.

In conclusion, the EnterpriseID is a critical component of Google's EMM program. It is used to manage devices, deploy apps, and integrate EMM with other enterprise systems. By understanding what an EnterpriseID is and how to find it, EMM administrators can ensure that their organization's mobile devices and apps are secure and effectively managed.

Complete Guide and steps to Install, Setup and Remove Test DPC app


how to uninstall test DPC

What is Test DPC

TestDPC / Test DPC is an app that is used for testing Device Policy Controller for Android Devices. This app was released by Google first in 2015. This app is smart enough to fool your Android device thinking that it is being used under a corporate context. If you are an Android App developer and want to test a specific behaviour of your app under the conditions when the device would be enrolled to Work Managed or Work Profile Mode by an EMM like WorkspaceOne Intelligent Hub.
Once you set the device to Device Owner or Work Managed / Work Profile mode using the TestDPC app, you can verify the remote app performance.
If you want to understand more on Work Managed and Work Profile, you can refer this article: Difference-between-Work-Profile-and-Work-Managed-Profile

Installing test DPC

For setting the device to Device Owner or Work Managed Mode, you can use the adb command without factory resetting the mobile device. The Current or the latest version available is for test DPC app is 7.0.

Steps for Installing testDPC app from Google Play Store

- To install, you must connect your Gmail account to your Android device.
- To download from Play Store
- Click ‘Accept’ for permissions and let it download
- Once Test DPC is installed from Play Store. 
- Follow the steps below given in the   Test DPC Initial Setup section

Steps for Installing testDPC app via command line via apk

- After downloading, go to Device Settings and then Security.
- Search for ‘Allow installation of apps from unknown sources’ and enable the option.
- Install any APK using below steps
  (Here is the complete guide to setup ADB on your machine - https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux)

- Install the DPC apk from adb
 adb install <TestDPC.apk>

- And run below command to set the dpc app as Device Owner.
 adb shell dpm set-device-owner com.afwsamples.testdpc/.DeviceAdminReceiver

- In case you want to test the Profile Owner mode, you need to run below command instead of above Device Owner command
 adb shell dpm set-profile-owner com.afwsamples.testdpc/.DeviceAdminReceiver

Test DPC Initial Setup:

Below screenshots would explain you the initial setup.
Launch the Test DPC app after installing and follow the instructions as given below.

Test DPC is one of the best Device Policy controller for Android devices and it is compatible with devices running on Lollipop (Android 5.0) and higher. 

Uninstalling / Removing Test DPC apk

 By now you must have understood, this app is very useful but I would suggest you to uninstall it once you are done with your work. Keeping it on your device and playing around it might land you in trouble.
Here are the steps to follow for removing the Test DPC app/apk.
From the below screenshot from the device you can see that there is a Wipe Option to clear the dpc set up from the device.

                                                             Test DPC Wipe option
- Launch the Test DPC application 
- Search for "Wipe" option 
- Click "Ok" on the prompt
- Remove the test DPC Apk from Device Apps list,  Go to Device Settings > Apps > search app and click Uninstall

 I see that people do look for removing other DPC apps like thinkadam dpc, Intelligent Hub from VMware or Microsofts Intune. Just to let you know, there is no way to remove these apps. If your device is enrolled as Device Owner, un-enrolling it would factory reset the device. If its enrolled as Profile owner there are chances but the only thing that blocks it is ofcourse the IT team of your company. If they have installed it on your device, they do not want it to remove it. If you want the DPC apps like mentioned above, to be removed from you mobile device, you need to contact to your IT team. 

NOTE: Sooner, the testDPC will be out of sight and will be over taken by AMAPI. The new concept that would control your device instead of DPC apps. Click here , if you want to learn more about AMAPI.

[Resolved] "You don't have permission to complete this action" while adding Payments


How to Resolve "You don't have permission to complete this action [ OR-AC-04 ]" while adding Blogger/Blogspot Payments


So while adding Adsense Account, I encountered this issue while adding the bank account details.
I did a research and could not find a relevant answer to this issue.
Although I was the only account holder for this Adsense account, I was not having permission to add Bank Details in the Payment Method

Even when I was moving across payment screen, I was getting this error.
"Uh oh. There was a problem.You don't have permission to complete this action [OR-AC-04]
cc7ab14e22e0f7e9"


 


Solved - you dont have permission to complete this action in blogger

Solved - you dont have permission to complete this action in blogger


To resolve this I tried to search across different Google threads but could not find much information.
Even though I had the permission for this blog and I was the only owner, it was frustrating to see that I was not able to my own account to the Google Payments.
After few trials to save the Payment settings again and again, I closed the browser and opened up Firefox.
Logged in with the same account and tried adding the Payment details.
To my surprise, it worked! 
So, here is solution you can try. You just need to login to your blogger account with another browser and you should be able save the Payment settings.

[Solved] How to fix the missing Address bar



Quick TIP to Resolve disappeared URL bar

Every Browser behaves strange including Google Chrome. I had an instance where address bar went missing and I had no clue how to bring it back. Funny isn't it! How will you search google query to fix the problem. (Ofcourse! you can try another browser :) ).                               
Below are the solution which you can try to resolve the disappeared URL Address Bar
  • Browser has full screen mode and you might have pressed F11 to take your browser to full screen mdoe. Press the F11 key to exit fullscreen mode. The address bar is not visible when the Internet browser is in fullscreen mode.
  • In case you are 'stuck' with  IE - Internet Explorer, then you have to  click the  View or Tools in the menu bar  which will can be seen at the top of the browser window screen, then  click on Toolbars, then select Address or Address bar. If the Menu bar is missing, press the Alt key to make it visible.
  • Alternate way would be to find the Add-ons OR Extensions which you might have installed in your browser which must have set the address bar/ URL bar hidden. With trial-error method can can find out which add-on has caused it and keep it Disabled. You can click here to know more about - How to remove Browser Extension
  • Finally, if none of the above g33ktricks does not work, the browser must have gone bad and Uninstalling and the re-install should fix the issue for sure.

Easy Trick to hack Google Chrome TRex Dino Jump game



Hack the Dino Jump Chrome Game


I am 100% sure that you must have seen this screen if you are a Chrome user. Yes, I am talking about the "No Internet" screen where you see 
"ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED" error message along with a nice black and white TRex.                                                                      
T-rex Dino jump game chrome hack auto mode

 
If you have seen it, you would also knew that, on hitting Space-bar button, the Trex jumps and an offline, inbuild game starts. Apparently, the game name is Jump the Dino TRex. This game is all fun to play while you wait for your internet connectivity to return back. You can play if for hours, if you keep your concentration full and do not make mistake by jumping or ducking at the wrong time.

If so, you feel to keep playing this game till the end, you can complete it on your own tirelessly forever or you can try hacking this game with two simple methods.
Either you enable autoplay or you become immortal. Immortality is boon that game developers use to test the games.
So how about trying immortality in the game.

First things first, how to start this game when you have Internet already.
Simply enter "chrome://dino" in to the Google Chrome URL, the game would launch. Another way to do this is, you need to know is "Inspect Element" feature which all the browser usually have for inspecting items of the  apps/ websites. To open this feature, right click anywhere on the browser and you would notice the dropdown menu has Inspect option OR you can try CTRL+SHIFT+I  / CTRL+SHIFT+C to open this menu. 

T-rex Dino jump game chrome hack



Among the different tabs, Click on Network Tab, Click on Offline option from the list.
This would launch the Dino game.


Trick to hack Dino game starts here

T-rex Dino jump game chrome hack


While in the game, in the same Inspect element screen, Click on Console option.

Runner.prototype.gameOver = function(){}

And Press Enter. This would result in No Game Over scenario. Check the screenshot above. The Dino just passed-by the cactus plant without the need of Jumping over it. But it ain't fun watching the dino passby without jumping so lets move to another trick.


The second G33ktrick which I was trying to explain was Auto-Play. If you want to try out AutoPlay where Dino jumps on its own, enter the below code as-is to the Console and press Enter. Refer the below screenshot from the Chrome Browser.
Let the game go on autopilot mode and enjoy it. You can boast your High Score record to your Friends.

const autoloop = function() { 

 if(window.Runner.instance_.tRex.jumping) 
{  requestAnimationFrame(autoloop);
return;  
const tRexLocation = window.Runner.instance_.tRex.xPos; 
const cactus = window.Runner.instance_.horizon.obstacles; 
const nextCactus = cactus.find(o => o.xPos > tRexLocation);  
if(nextCactus && (nextCactus.xPos - tRexLocation) <= 120)
window.Runner.instance_.tRex.startJump(50) 
}  
requestAnimationFrame(autoloop);  
}  
requestAnimationFrame(autoloop);

Google Android P might have been named Popsicle


Android P was first released in March, but it’s still known as “Android P” . Google has not named it yet, But intrestingly, in recent Instagram post from Google, Google has released sets of new 5 wallpapers to their followers. (Yes, google do like Instagram and has 6.2M followers)
Here is the link to Google Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/google/

These wallpapers are more like other Google's fancy wallpaper but among them, one stands different from other . Hope this does ring bells. That could be a hint from Google about the name of next release.


Google P = Google Popsicle




Or Google is just being witty and trolling their followers :)

Interestingly, Google named it Pie

How to Speed Up Chrome Browser Quickly




Speed-up your Chrome Browser to load page faster



How to make Chrome fastAs you may know, Chrome is one of the popular browser available to us and it is also among the fastest browser. You also might have used it or maybe you are using it now as well and can feel the difference of speed compared to other Web Browsers.
The fact which you might not know is, Google Chrome uses DNS prefetching and speedy (SPDY) protocols instead of HTTP. DNS prefetching and SPDY protocols helps to load the webpage in advance which reduces the time to load the page.
If you are reading this page means something went wrong with your Chrome browser. After using it for many days it tends to slow down. Lately, it has been observed that Chrom has been consuming high amount of RAM even if there is only one tab opened. Offcourse, it does lot in background so consuming high memory is not a surprise.
So, here are the things which you can do to fasten your Chrome Browser application for your desktop machine. This should work for other browsers too.

1. DISABLE THE  PLUGINS or ADD-ONS 

Having many plugins enabled in your browser can slow down it easily as it consumes time to load each and every plugin and moreover it consumes you RAM usage as well. So the best option would be to load the important plugin which you really need and disable the rest. I presonally prefer running zero plugins.
This is how you can disable it.


a. Open Chrome Browser and enter the following address into address bar

chrome://plugins/

b. Now you can Un-tick all the plugins which you think are not at all useful to you.
Please do remember that few plugins like Adobe Flash is required for many websites to display content so you should not disable it and there are some other plug-ins which can help your browser to increase performance.


2. DISABLE EXTENSIONS


a. Open Chrome Browser and enter the following address into address bar

 chrome://extensions/

OR

Click on Wrench icon on your toolbar > Tools > Extensions.

b. Un-tick the extensions which are not needed or can be deleted as well if not required.


3. CLEAR YOUR BROWSING DATA

Browsing data consumes good amount of space. Everytime you visit a webpage, some amount of data from the webpage will be saved on your system so that when you visit the same page again, the data can be loaded quickly. But if your not clearing your browser data, the data continues to increase thus slowing down your browser.

Although cache and cookies are really made to speed up chrome browser but sometimes it happens that they are responsible for decreasing your browsing speed and lagging while opening webpages.


This is how you can clear the data

a. Click on Wrench icon
b. Go to Tools > Clear browsing data.
c. Choose Time range in the dialog box and click on "Clear browsing data"

OR

a. Go to Settings
b. Search for "Clear browsing data"
c. And appropriately select the data that needs to be cleared.

4. Disable any ToolBar you have added to your Browser

Toolbars are your worst enemy. They stay on your browser and do nothing. Toolbars can really slow down the system and the browser. Moreover, I feel toolbars should not be installed at first place.

The Above tips works well for the other browser like FireFox and Internet Explorer as well. Only the path to change the settings will vary.

Hope you like the tips shared. Please do add any other tips if you have in comments.

You can set the Chrome to Dark mode . Check it out here

Yahoo vs Google


Yahoo Vs Google

The question is what Yahoo can do better than Google?
There are only some things (I mean only Se7en things as far as I know) things that Yahoo can provide but Google cannot.

1. Local Search – If someone is looking for businesses around your town or city, Yahoo Local is a step ahead of Google. Yahoo Local is some sort of Yellow pages. The http://Yahoo Maps can be used for route finding .While Google can perform local searches in a variety of different ways through their standard search interface and Google Maps application, Local Search is a more polished service that puts all local search capabilities on one convenient page.

2. Local Search - Yahoo Finance contains a great wealth of original content that easily rivals some of the biggest financial sites in the game (TheStreet.com, etc.). The site is full informative and equally intuitive for the new investors as well as for the professionals. .Google Finance is not that good as compare to the Yahoo one.

3. Answers to the QuestionsLocal Search allows users all over the world to ask questions or answer other user’s questions. This is active and social service that Google did not provided yet. A simple concept that works well for Yahoo. Google has no such active service.

4. Website Backlink Info – Most webmasters like to know exactly how many sites are linking to their various websites. Yahoo makes this especially easy with their linkdomain search operator. It quickly provides a full list of incoming links to any given domain. For some reason Google does not publicly disclose this backlink information, but instead provides a small sample of quality incoming links to a given domain via it’s link: search operator. Google does provide Google Webmaster Tools that will give you backlink information for a specific domain once you sign up and prove to Google that you are the owner of the domain.

5. Image Hosting and Sharing - With its recent purchase of Flickr, Yahoo now rules the Web 2.0 photo sharing market. Flickr is currently the king over all the other photo sharing sites out there. Although, lets not forget that Google rules the Web 2.0 video sharing market with YouTube.

6. Entertainment Portal – From music to movies to sports, Yahoo provides a solid entertainment web portal capable of satisfying various entertainment and leisure user demographics. For better or for worst, Google isn’t trying to be an entertainment portal, so it doesn’t even come close to competing with Yahoo in this regard.

7. Privacy Policy - Yahoo is arguably better with the privacy concerns of its users. Certainly this point could be debated in favor of either company, but there seems to be more public controversy surrounding Google’s privacy policies. Like most, I suck it up and use Google’s services anyway. I do, however, have a Yahoo Mail, account that I use to communicate with other bloggers concerning blog monetization strategies that may include Google’s Adwords service. I figure, why let Google have access to that info too?

Ultimately the answer to above question is "Google can do all the tasks except the above mention 7 issues and someday down the line things gonna change and Google too can give those services" :)
