How to Add an Android device in Intune

For what I figured out, there is a few approches/profiles to enrollment.

  • Questions to be answered prior to :
    • What is allowed? Personal or corporate owned phones or both?
    • There is 4 different options :

Intune Android Enrollment

  • For this scenario, the corporate-owned dedicated devices option is not required (yet?)
  • Start the series of tests, the third option will be used Corporate-owned, fully managed user devices

Assuming that the managed Google Play account is already setup...​

We need to create a profile under Device | Enrollment and choose Corporate-owned, fully managed user devices and name it something logical or that your organization will understand.

  • For the Token type, choose Corporate-Owned with work profile (default) (At least that's what I took)

Intune Corporate owned fully managed

  • After and once completed, go back in the profile and acces the token :

On a factory-reset device​

  • Now on the device that has been factory-reseted :
    • Choose your language
    • Connect to a wireless network
    • Accept the Google terms
    • When arriving at the Google sign in screen, enter afw#setup instead of a gmail account.
      • It's the DPC identifier for Intune
    • Choose install for the Android Device policy app
      • For the Google services, I decided to not to select the options
      • Press ACCEPT
    • Once on the enroll this device screen, scan the Token
      • Then it asks to log in with a Domain User
        • In theory, then it should install the apps that are configured in Intune
          • And also, I registed the device in Intune (Option was given)

After a few minutes, the device shows up in Intune and can be managed.
