Android Device Administrator Leftovers

The question it answers: Which Android devices are still managed with the deprecated device administrator mode?

Google deprecated Android device administrator in 2020 and Intune ended support for it on devices with Google Mobile Services on 31 December 2024. Those devices get no fixes and newer Android versions lose management capabilities. Microsoft Teams certified Android devices are the documented exception.
