Known Issues:

  • BMDE is now supporting iPhone battery nongenuine / bad battery notifications on UI. There are minor issues reported for the feature: BatteryOK status is printed with dummy value and BMDE UI does not show warning for iPhone after iOS setup workflow is run.
  • Show latest BMC report" is not working like it should work - MC view button is not removed from device card once setting is disabled.
  • Skipping SIM removal with Samsung S9 device is not working thus erasure is to be done without the SIM detection setting enabled.
  • iOS components: Serial matching may be required to be changed in future releases thus only some minor variation is found on certain serials.
  • It was found that if multiple iPhone 6 series devices are connected while logging in to the system Asset reports aren't always created. Reconnect of the devices is needed in order to create the reports.
  • On Server machine it's detected that UI can get frozen for seconds (up to 30s) once starting erasure on it and firmware sharing to clients is ongoing simultaneously (system resources in full use).
  • Slow network can cause firmware download get stalled when proxy and sync server are in use.
