I am trying to find a way to convert my Samsung A Tab 8.0 (Odin Rooted, running Marshmellow build with Tasker installed) into a KIOSK so that all the tablet provides is a web browser once network connectivity is detected (Via Ethernet). I have found a way to get the tablet to launch Mozilla Firefox Web browser once the tablet is booted up and ethernet is detected.

The issue that I am having is that if the user closes out or presses back button or home button it takes you out of the web browser.

I was able to test a profile to lock the screen with a PIN pad so that you type the PIN and gives you full access to the tablet. But I would like that if the Tablet is at the PIN Screen that if the users don't know the PIN they are able to press the back button or after some time the device is idle (5-10sec) the web browser screen will return to the website designated.

Within the profile to lock the screen until PIN is entered to canceled but when you press the X button displayed on PIN pad it would completely exit out of everything and give you full access back into the tablet which I would prefer it to just exit the lock PIN screen still locking the tablet and taking you back to web browser view.

Thanks in advance for your help!
